I accepted a head canon from @molly-gru that Howard was one of the kids the cat in the hat would randomly visit to have fun with and teach life lessons to.

First sketch: Little howie and cat playing.

Second sketch: The next time cat visits, he is sad to hear that Howard’s mother died (I believe that Howard was put into custody of a foster family or another relative after this tragedy).

Third sketch: cat reunites with a grown up Howard.

Bonus sketch: Little howie gets a visitor on Christmas Eve, but it wasn’t Santa. This is basically “what if the grinch was robbing a second town instead of just who ville?”.

AU where Phillip gets turned into a rabbit doll by Morose. He escapes and helps Howard throughout the game.

I wasn't sure until I went back and looked - (warning, gorey image) at this scene in the Island of Dr Morose -

The apparition down in the lower dormitories is definitely meant to be Howard's mother. The references to stars, the dark hair. I hope the stars look right to you - because she bought him the telescope.

I realized one of my drawings looked like that one meme so I re-edited it.

Tidied up the baby Howard and Cat sketch cause I love it, and paired it up with the Cat being done with the Grinch's 'wit'.

pretty black hair.

#kinda like the thematic implications of Sam and Howard looking alike #tiodm howard #howard plunkett #the island of dr morose

those old untidy memories, broken mixed up memories, of what we had one day.

#//based on the idea howard was one of those human kids the cat would randomly visit to teach life lessons to #//sweep up the memories makes me CRY okay #the cat in the hat #dr seuss #tiodm howard #the island of dr morose #the island of dr morose howard

if the Grinch had a nickel for every time he had to deal with some little know-it-all, he'd have two nickels.

Look, it's been a hot minute since I've ranted about the Dark Crystal, but it's been on my mind recently. But SkekSil is the face of the franchise a lot of the time because not only was he one of the most memorable parts of the original film, but if all the expanded content is to be believed, he is at the heart of the entire story. It's never confirmed that he is 'Dark Heart' the musician UrSkek whose despair tore he and the others apart.

But if it is, then that means he caused everything in the main plot to happen. The Crystal Breaking. The downfall of both Gelfling and Skeksis (because their addiction and obsession with the essence destroyed the skeksis too, make no mistake, and he's the only one of their order to outright kill one of his kind) and if he WAS Dark Heart, then his final words weren't a declaration of malice, or even a rejection of the anti-individualism of his people. It was: is there no being in all of creation who will show me compassion.

SkekSil is a being of heartless want. The others have semblances of loyalty and companionship among them, but not him. And it might have come from his original self's heartbroken belief that compassion and love did not truly exist. Or he craved it so badly he literally tore himself into pieces than comprehend the ache.
