Hallucination

Tumblr is like a Hallucination for me just because of all those CUTE Carmen Sandiego fanarts especially between the ships like Chasulia, AND OMG SHADOWSAN WITH CARLOTTA, AND REBECCA??? LIKE EXCUSE ME??? and those family edits with Rebecca and Carlotta is so cute <3 Yall make me die with these fanarts of characters or scenes that don't exist in Carmen Sandiego and I LOVE THAT <3

I think my favourite thing about ever after high having such a large cast is how it near enough eliminates background characters. Rather than having them they really put the effort into putting the actual characters in the background. It's so fun to rewatch the episodes and spot your favourite characters, and seeing how they interact with each other when the focus isn't on them.

average interaction between these three

obligatory briar drawing !

briar does NOT interact with the other three enough dude what the HECK

where are my ten billion screenshots of the four of them existing in the same frame 💔 my ten billion bookmarks of them existing in the same scene 💔💔 noo

[myal7878]

I think about them a lot 🥹

[super-subraminion]

do you think there's a probability that some royal parents in EAH used their kids for fame because idk they need good reputation or stuffs like that?

i havent rly given it much thought but i think its definitely a thing similar to how there’s parents who exploit their children for fame(like on tiktok, or child beauty pageants, etc).

its kinda what snow white is doing to apple w everything from micromanaging her popularity + starting dragon games and claiming it as apple’s idea. i would imagine a similar thing happening amongst other royals.

it would be interesting to explore briar and her relationship w her family since she has such a reputation for being a silly party girl and i would imagine that’s not the kind of image royals would want. or also ashlynn’s relationship w her family ever since her relationship w hunter became public.

it’s such a shame that eah was cancelled bc more webisodes focusing on the other characters’ parents couldve been so interesting!

I hate that I made you love me song

Lowkey that song gives sad vibes in a whimsical way but you're sad! it's like when you're crying but you look 10/10 but yea it's still kinda hurts and something in the air feels ugly type shi but your crying made you look prettier even though you feel horrible. It also give cozy summer, and sleepover/bedtime vibes but you're kinda depressed...but you're also feeling good. Sorry if I repeated myself, it's just something about this song, the melody sounds beautifully sad. It's giving sadness is beautiful, and romanticizing my sadness alone to myself, to make myself feel better a little bit, it's like cozy, girly typa sadness! omg I better not get emotional bye guys.

What about you guys? what does this song make you feel like?

P.S don't take the "sadness is so beautiful seriously"..THATS NYATT WHAT I MEANT!!! I mean of course all emotions are beautiful but what I mean is to of course not romanticize your sadness THATS MISERY NO!, I just think its okay to feel sad, even if it's for no reason sometimes. This song just brings in the sadness comfort to just let all your feelings come out, and in a healthy way, process what you're feeling.

It would so cool if this is how were introduced to people irl

[tapiorcas]

i started drawing this yesterday without even realising it was the eah anniversary omggg i loved this show growing up

[thehollowwriter]

Though I do feel the theme got a bit lost/overshadowed, I do love how the show Carmen Sandiego calls for the protection and preservation of items significant to a country's history, of paintings, art, historically significant items, etc. Even if it's not inherently "useful" it's still important and deserves to be respected and cared for.

I love how the villains of this show mainly treat these items as means of making money and showing off their power and status. They're wealthy people who would melt down precious artefacts to turn into jewellery or use ancient culturally significant statues to use as a towel rack just because they can, and it makes them look good.

With the way rich people flaunt their wealth, especially right now, and just thoughtlessly buy and hold onto important things for themselves, it's actually a very clever, powerful, and unique theme that I wish was explored a little more than it was.

Shadow san drunk

---Ivy--- Zack look guilty asf

Don’t mind me

Just fantasizing about platonically cuddling with my favourite characters and being friends with them

[fedorah-the-explorah]

yah... it's time for my bi-annual AU drop. i've always been a fan of AUs where the mentor figure turns out to actually be the biological parent of their protège so this one was a long time coming, but uh... how are we feeling about a "shadowsan is carmen's biological father" AU? listen. here me out.

okay so basically, in this au, suhara and dexter are the same age and they're buddies. they're bros. they're besties. they're both two of the most promising young vile operatives, and they're both up for consideration for the open faculty seat. because of this, they've got a bit of a rivalry going on, but they're still friends.

well, one day suhara starts to realize that dexter is kind of just phoning shit in, and though he'd always been pretty come and go like a cat, he seems to never be around anymore—its like he doesn't even care about the faculty position anymore....well suhara puts two and two together and he approaches dexter like, "so. who is she?"

and dexter is like "oh hey, i thought you'd never catch on. you gotta meet her, okay? i think you'll really like her and i honestly need a wingman."

so suhara reluctantly allows for himself to be dragged to a bar where he's introduced to carlotta, dexter's newest friend. immediately he realizes three things:

carlotta and dexter are totally into eachother

dexter was right, he does like carlotta.

oh no. dexter was right...

so the the three of them form a close friendship, and suhara is still pretty much a huge piece of shit at this age, but he's at least trying to respect the fact that his friend is into this woman. besides, despite the fact that they're both dancing around the fact, it's super obvious that those two are meant for each other. and he can respect that. he can super totally respect that. besides, having a crush on a vile outsider is stupid and dumb and is only for idiots like dexter. it is NOT for idiots like suhara!!!

lol. so anyway, one day dexter gets pretty badly hurt on a job bc even the best can be caught lacking sometimes literally just look at his (canonical) daughter... so it's pretty touch and go and suhara is left wondering if his friend is even gonna survive. he realizes that carlotta, who dexter had been planning to go meet in the next couple days, is kind of just left in the dark abt what's going on. atp she knows that they're both into some shady shit, but they both make it a point to share as little as possible abt vile for her own safety. anyway, he's like "damn, well, she shouldn't be left to worry so i'll just meet up with her instead and let her know what's going on."

so like he tries vaguely explaining to her what happened, but she doesn't appreciate his general evasiveness so she eventually gets the full truth out of him and she's like "hey, wtf that's so messed up. you both need to stop doing that immediately."

and suhara is like "um. well. it's not that easy, you know?"

and carlotta is like "spare me the excuses sir, you're telling me he's lying somewhere in critical condition and it's 'not that easy?' what's so difficult about it! just quit! make him quit, suhara!"

and you know, suhara isn't psyched about this either—hes already having doubts about vile and carmen's not even on the picture yet... look at you go, suhara! really speed running that development—! he's just as worried about his friend as she is and now that he's talking about it with someone, he realizes that the uncertainty about his best friend's fate is actually getting to him... so he and carlotta are both in this emotionally vulnerable state and they've both had a couple drinks, and you know these conditions are perfect for making a silly little mistake!!! one thing leads to another, and oh shit, they hook up. immediate regret on both their parts, btw. carlotta is like "oh man, this can not happen again. you're my friend, but I'm not into you like that. you're not dexter." and suhara is like "yeah that's cool I get that... I think I might be a terrible person btw..."

fast forward a little bit, and dexter recovers and he realizes he's got to stop fucking around. he needs to confess his feelings to carlotta. he tells suhara about his plan and basically, this happens:

(yes i gave dexter a real name... dw about it...)

yeah, so they cutely beat each other's asses but then they make up because that is what bros do. anywho. carlotta and dexter end up getting together and everything is great and wonderful and going perfectly and oopsies daisies, carlotta is pregnant. suhara is like "wtf wtf wtf this is the worst thing that ever happened to me" whereas dexter is like "ykw this is great. it doesn't if it's mine or if it's yours...let's ditch these vile losers and then all three of us can raise the baby together #family"

okay well fast forward through the pregnancy and dexter is the one who's consistently there for carlotta whereas suhara is not. when baby carmen is born and they find out suhara is the father, he feels immense guilt bc dexter is a way better partner and father than he could ever be and it should have been him... he suggests naming the baby alejandra after dexter (alejandro). Carlotta is like "awesome. sounds good. so this means you're gonna pull your weight, right?"

and suhara is like "well, yes!" bc despite being a twenty-two year old shit head, he does love his new daughter #cute.

Dexter is like, "hey, that's great man. so you're gonna join me in defecting, right?"

and suhara, who is a coward is like, "uhhhhh hold on now...."

so like suhara's refusal to defect causes some tension and LOL dexter becomes the father who stepped up... he starts acting much in the same way that he acted in canon before attempting to leave vile, and the faculty, as per canon, takes notice. they decided the do away with him, and they choose to make suhara prove his loyalty to them over his best friend by sending him to kill dexter. suhara has no plans to actually do this, and he fully plans on like helping to fake Dexter's death.

so he shows up at Dexter's place and he explains the sitch, and Dexter is like "okay, wait. hang on. your plan is to help me fake my own death so I can disappear with carlotta?"

and suhara is like "uh, yeah. obviously I wouldn't kill you."

and Dexter is like "okay okay okay. cool cool cool. so uh. quick question. what about your daughter?"

"uhhhhh"

"jeez man, you're a real class act. you're telling me you won't even risk your own ass for your daughter???"

and suhara explains that ideally he'd defect too, but it's too late for that now....and maybe if they just give him a few years for the heat to die down he can fake his own death and disappear too. so they're going back and forth arguing when interpol shows up and canon events play out and suhara and carmen are kind of just looking at each other like 🧍‍♀️🧍‍♀️

he tries desperately to find carlotta so he can get carmen to safety and explain what happened to dexter, but they had been in the process of scrubbing any traces back to her and because suhara has been so in and out in their lives, they hadn't had the chance to update him on her whereabouts or methods of contacting her. and now dexter is dead. and suhara has the faculty breathing down his neck. and he can't find the mother to his child. cue mental break down.

so, inevitably he is forced to bring baby carmen back to the island where he then lies about her paternity to protect himself and carlotta. and he is forced to accept it as coach brunt renames his daughter some stupid shit right in front of him. and everything is terrible. rip dexter. rip suhara. rip carmen's chance at a normal(ish) life.

i like to imagine that his relationship towards black sheep stays mostly the same as she's growing up due to his guilt and his piss poor ability to handle his feelings appropriately. though, in her early early childhood maybe he's more involved in her life and he grows distant as she grows up. and though they're distant, he's less mean to her and maybe they do have the occasional moment of closeness. every now and then he sometimes slips and calls her alejandra. so when black sheep runs away and takes up the name carmen, she also gives herself a middle name... LMFAO and then fast forward to the deep dive caper where she finds out allllllll these scandalous details and she discovers that not only is shadowsan her father, but she's literally been using her real name all these years without even realizing it.

thank you for reading my dissertation. I hope it pleases the PhD board or whatever I don't know how PhD candidates are selected I only have my bachelor's degree

[ratladysarah]

based off the use of context clues im assuming they’re going to interact w one another bc i think sofia got the blue bag if i remember correctly which means she’s placed in the merryweather building and the two scenes w sofia and camila in what looks like ceddys class room so i was like “omg merryweather would be like a mama to him 💖” so now thats in my mind hehe

[sweet-cuddlebug]

I almost finish chapter 3 of Ever After High and brother I hate headmaster grimm so much, fuck him for ever after I'm so serious.

"Oh there was this one time when I was a kid that I didn't listen to the story and put my brother in danger and when he came back perfectly fine it traumatized me for life" like you dumb old fuck you later kept your brother trapped under the school and fucking cursed him so he wouldn't be able to talk, you don't give a shit about your brother and you're so incredibly lucky he's kinda dumb so he forgave you even tho you didn't do anything to deserve it.

Oh and let's not forget the fact that you TRICK TEENAGERS into believing stories that you KNOW are not true, like you LITERALLY know they’re not true but you have "trauma" or something so yeah let's make these kids belive that if they don't follow their depressing stories all they’re friends are gonna die

Like I was giving him the benefit of the doubt at first but after the episode where he makes Blondie film the school myths to prove that they’re real and to scare the kids into following they’re stories AND HE FAKES THEM LIKE WHAT I was so done with him, yup he's evil. Also when he traded Raven's gift for a coin for the magic well??? First of all, that's theft and he hasn't returned it yet, BUT HE FAKED THE ANSWER THE WELL GAVE HER, IF YOU BELIVE THE LEGENDS ARE SO REAL WHY ARE YOU DOING ALL THIS?! SHOULDN'T YOU TRUST THE WELL WILL TELL THE TRUTH??? UNLESS THE TRUTH CONTRADICTS YOUR CLAIMS

Uuuuuuuugh I'm watching Way To Wonderland right now and like always he's a pain in the ass. I hope that by the end of this my questions will be answered.
