I LOVE your reply to my gift, and I'll respond to it properly later ^^ but I realized I left out something.
Since Poppy and Shiny have basically adopted the toon twins, how do you think the weasels would go about earning THEIR approval? Especially Shiny since she's stubborn and knows what kind of games to look out for. Poppy is more... not necessarily convincing, but she's sweeter; easier to manipulate, and she isn't the best at standing up for herself. Would their tactics change depending on which aunt they're talking to? What would they do if Shiny and/or Poppy said no?
Iβm so, so, so sorry this took a while! πππππ Things have been really crazy, but at last I have answered your awesome new ask! π€©π€©π€©π€©π€© And itβs another gift? π₯Ί @mosaic-marshlands, what did I ever do to deserve all of these amazing presents?!?!?!?! ππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππ
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy!!!! ππππππ Iβm happy you love my reply to your wonderful gift and thank you so much for your own reply!!! ^^ And Psycho popping out of Twylaβs hair purring while the others are fighting over her?
@weaselnerd, @lastofautumn, @amberfox232, @spookiifi, @alexissoosigma52288, @heartsissopure, @trashogram A.K.A. @mantisandthemoondragon, help me Iβm getting cuteness overload again!!!!!! πππππππππ§‘β€ππππππβ€ππππππππ§‘
The weasels are gonna be really surprised when they find out the Golden Girlsβ connections to the twins. Poppy and Shinyβ¦adopted them? Theyβre family now? π₯Ί Even Smartassβs gotta admit, he didnβt see that one coming! This is quite a surprise, but heβs gotta respect Toonz for having a good head on his shoulders. Plus, theyβre wonderful aunties! π₯° How would the guys go about earning THEIR approval? Ooh, I love this new challenge! πππ Hmmβ¦I think their tactics would change, depending on their how their efforts to earn approval from each aunt would turn out π€
Thatβs true, she is quite stubborn π And the boys know this, so their tactics rely on strong determination and hard work. In fact, theyβre even more determined since last time didnβt work (for the other four, I mean π€£). Β Β Β Β Β
For Smartass, I think his main tactic is arranging a meeting with her like he did with Tom. Whether itβs at the office or the nightclub Shiny now owns, she decides. If she wants to have the meeting at Headquarters, sheβs going to notice that the office isβ¦tidier than it was the last time she visited there. The tan-painted walls that were once tarnished with cracks had a fresh new coat of paint while the windows didnβt have a single bullet hole, and the whole waiting lobby/living room is decorated with new, elegant furniture the boys stole β I mean, bought π
βSo, you want toβ¦increase your influence all around Toontown in hopes of better protection for Twyla?β
βYeah, all around. Uptown may be a better district than thaβ one here, but you and I both know thereβs always some douchebags in there who want βta start shit with Twyla. And with all thaβ connections Iβve got, I can make things so much better for her! Listen, I know I ainβt exactly got a....squeaky-clean record. But trust me, I can be the guy Twyla needs! I can give her anything and everything she wants.βΒ Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β
Greasyβs practically sweating bullets here π
βHold up. Youβ¦and Twyla?β βSΓ. And why not? Twyla is my moon and stars, and I am her brave knight in shining jade armor! I know you and Poppy want someone who can protect her, and believe me, I am more than capable of doing so. I would do anything for Twyla. Every second of my life is devoted to her, and I spend every one of them ensuring her happiness. The moment our eyes met, it was love at first sight.β βHmmβ¦Iβve got my eyes on you, Rodriguez.β Yeah, heβs most likely gonna get watched like a hawk π But heβs determined to win, so heβs going to win approval from his Lupitaβs tough tΓa by performing some of his famous β and most daring β skills. La Verdadera Destreza, a Spanish tradition of fencing that originated in 16th-century Spain that was taught in Greasyβs family for generations. Not only does he excel at this, but he also challenges himself by adding creative and dangerous obstacles. Since Tom dared to choose our sweet potato over him (lmao, Greasy was so mad ππ€£π), heβs going to take the opportunity to make his latest performance into something incredibly complex. Hell, heβll even go as far as taking on 10,000 other swordfighters while heβs blindfolded and doing a war dance like all weasels do! I give you and @just-kit-ink plenty of credit for that fun fact ππ
βWaitβ¦youβre doing this blindfolded?! π¨ Greasy, are you sure youβre gonna be OK?β
βLupita, mi amor, I assure you Iβm going to be just fine π And please have Tom on the seat next to Shiny, perhaps this will change his mind.βΒ
Wheezyβs got a few aces up his sleeve too, and he knows exactly how to convince Shiny to choose him. She wants her niece to be with someone who knows how to take care of her, someone who also has common sense. Well, don't worry, Shiny! π Wheezy is just the right guy, and he has all the qualifications! Plus, heβs saner oh please, heβs just as crazy as the rest of them π. And who would be better than a medic? Lol, Iβm just imagining the look on her face when he tells her this π€£π€£π€£ βSoβ¦youβre a doctor too? π€¨β βMm-hmm. I know, I know. I smoke 24/7, and I got more packs of Marlboros than all of those Hot Wheels toy car collections. But believe me, Iβm much better for Twyla. Iβve learned medicine since I was a kid, and Iβve practiced a lot growinβ up. I know that sheβs got her own medic and I hear heβs real good but hear me out. Having two doctors around can make things so much easier whenever shit hits the fan, plus the twins often drive around in those motorcycles of theirs.β Β Β Β
ββ¦β¦. So, youβre a doctor too? π€¨βΒ Β Β Β Β
Psychoβs as fierce as he is silly andβ¦well, Psycho π€£ His tactic of choice is keeping Twyla safe whenever Tomβs not around. Like for example, he, his Twy-Lala and Shiny are out and about in Uptown and decide to take a little lunch break at one of the local restaurants. Theyβre just chilling and having a great timeβ¦when Shiny and Psycho notice that some of the other customers are making fun of Twyla and pointing at her (those bastards π’). Shiny doesnβt even have to say a word, Psycho understands the assignment. Heβll sneak off into the breakroom, yoink an extra uniform and plot their horrific, gruesome demise politely deliver their order.
βAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!! THE CRABβS PINCHING MY HAND!!!!!!!β
If Stupid has already won Tomβs approval, heβs for sure going to win Shinyβs too! ππ Since I mentioned that Twylaβs been teaching him about halfie Toons, Stuβs gonna share all these fun facts with Shiny and heβs super excited about what Twylaβs been teaching him. βSo, theyβre both great swimmers, huh?β βYup! Not only that, but theyβre both really fast! Their speed may be different since minks are more versatile when it comes to water and trees while wolves often sprint speeds up to 40 miles per hour, but trust me, Iβve seen them run fast enough to make a cheetah green with envy! I bet they can even win a race against Speedy and Roadrunner!β Β Β
Itβs quite a surprise for Shiny and her wife to learn that these guys, the most feared weasel gang in Toontown are head over heels for their spooky cinnamon roll. So, sheβs gonna keep a very close eye on them. Especially when she starts toβ¦notice other things. During the meeting, she sees that Smartassβs got quite a couple of picture frames on his desk. And they all have photos of Twyla. While theyβre pretty romantic, sheβll get a strange vibe of how Smartass has more than one photo of her. Not only that, but sheβll get the same vibe from the others too. Like, if sheβs at the flower shop, Greasyβs there looking for rosesβ¦which happens to one be of Twylaβs favorite flowers. Or that Wheezyβs relaxing while reading Edgar Allan Poeβ¦who is one of Twylaβs favorite authors. And Psycho, whoβs already a little strange himself, is napping on the couch with his crescent moon pillowsβ¦which are kinda similar to the ones Twyla has π
You might wanna wish her good luck π
π Sheβs not ready for the boysβ Yandere shenanigans either XD For this lovely seamstress, the weaselsβ tactics would mostly consist of proving their commitment through actions like doing tasks for Twyla whenever Poppy and/or Shiny are around.
Of course, Smartass is gonna invite her to the meeting too! He knows sheβs got a lot of questions as well, and heβs more than ready to answer them after spending weeks practicing and rehearsing how this meeting would go. Besides that, another tactic I think heβd also have is supporting her wonderful ideas in sewing outfits for Twyla (she absolutely loves her new scarf, by the way! ^^)! π Heβll give plenty of encouraging feedback for what Poppy has in mind, and heβll even add helpful tips!
βSo, you really think sheβll love this bolero?β
βAbsolutely βpositivityβ (positively)! Most outfits she wears for spring and summer are cute and comfortable, but she likes a touch of elegance like thaβ classy dame she is. I know how much she loves her biker jacket, but she needs a little change of wardrobe now that βtha flowers are bloominβ. Trust me, Pops, sheβs gonna love your World Goth Day gift.β
βMerci. Wait, how do you know Twyla celebrates World Goth Day?β
Greasy is a man of many talents, and cooking is one of them! π³ Poppy will find him outside in the backyard over an open fire, working harder than usual and putting a lot of effort into Twylaβs mealβ¦while heβs got other meals prepared all over the table. Heβs a very talented chef, and every dish he prepares is a masterpiece. βAre youβ¦making lunch?β βSΓ! My princess certainly enjoys my lechΓ³n asado, and I am more than happy to be her humble chef!β βThatβs very sweet, but arenβt you working a little too hard? It looks like youβre turning lunch into a whole buffet table." βOh! Well, what can I say? A proper gentleman must ensure his soulmate enjoys a wonderful meal. You and Shiny are more than welcome to try my other creations too, if you want some!β Β Β
Since Wheezyβs also a doctor, heβs gonna try winning Poppyβs approval by proving his medical experience as he did with Shiny and knowing that someone in the boogle can treat serious injuries will surely earn him Poppyβs five gold stars, especially if, God forbid, something happens to Twyla again. βWait, youβre a doctor too? I didnβt know that!β βYeah, well, if youβre gonna be part of a gang with those three bloody lunatics, you gotta learn how tβbe good with medicine. Which is why I can do a much better job caring for Twyla, and not just as a doctor or a work husband." βWellβ¦you do have a fair point β Hold on ππβ However, like with Smartass, I imagine what Wheezy would also do to prove himself is stay close to Twyla when they go horseback riding! π As a cowboy, he is excellent with horses and knows how to earn their trust. Iβm not sure if Poppyβs ever done horseback riding before, but Wheezy and Twyla will help and show her that riding a horse is an incredible experience! And itβs gonna be quite an experience for Wheezy as wellβ¦since the horses Poppy and Twyla have wonβt get up because they want more cuddles π₯° And while Wheezyβs back is turned, the entire herd has joined πππ
βAll right, ladies. You ready for another ride β Oh, youβve got tβbe kiddinβ me.β
βSorry, Wheezy! π
We tried telling them to get up, butβ¦β
βThey gave us the puppy eyes. How could we say no these majestic creatures? π₯Ίβ
ββ¦.β *glances at the horses* βItβs been 10 minutes π Give me back my woman.β
The Horses: No πΒ Β Β Β Β
Like the other three, Psychoβs got a few tricks of his own. Poppy often looks after his Twy-Lala by stopping by and bringing her own home-made cooking, which gives Psycho a few ideas of how heβll win the sweet-natured doeβs approval. And heβll start by doing something that absolutely does not match his name; be on his best behavior. No stealing sweets from the coffee shop, no juggling-gone-wrong-that-blew-up-Headquarters incidents, nothing. When the time has come to earn Auntie Poppyβs blessing, Psycho is going to be calm like a relaxed puppyβ¦who really wants to be as close to Twyla as possible.
βTwyla, the tea is almost ready. Could you pass me the mugs, please?β
*pops out of Twylaβs hair holding three mugs* βHere you go!β
βMerci, Psycho. Wait β?! ππβ
Iβm absolutely cracking up over your hilarious idea of Tom catching Psycho on camera!!! π€£π€£π€£πππ And now itβs my turn to make you laugh π
βPoppy, you gotta believe me. Psychoβs trying to play his game with you like he did with me, and Iβve got proof β Wait. Whereβs my phone?β
*glances towards the window and sees this little guy waving hello while holding Tomβs phone* ββ¦.Be right back, Iβm gonna go open the window. Itβs getting kinda warm in here.β *walks over the window, unlocks it*
βPSYCHO!!!! GIVE ME BACK MY GODDAMN PHONE!!!! π’π’π’β
βNOT A CHANCE IN HELL!!!β
I think like with Shiny and Tom, Stupid just wants to hang out with Poppy π All he wants is to enjoy a nice, relaxing day with Twy-Twyβs aunts. Twyla also enjoys teaching him how to create art, so this sweet potatoβs eager to show Poppy all of his projects! βOK, you ready?β βYes! Iβm curious to see what youβve created β Oh, mon Dieu! You can make art out of food?! π€© I love the colors and details! And are these grapes Twylaβs eyes? This is gorgeous! Shiny, come here! Youβve got to see this beautiful artwork!β
Just like Shiny, Poppy will pick up on the boysβ odd affection. Like, if theyβre having Twyla and Greasy over for lunch, Poppyβs going to notice the gangsterβs behavior. Usually, when heβs in the presence of women, heβs obviously trying to flirt with them which ends in either an eyeroll, a purse smack on the head, or a kick in the batteries. But with Twylaβ¦he doesnβt remove his gaze from her even while heβs eating. Tiny hearts are popping around his head π, his eyes full of nothing but love and obsession adoration as she takes a bite of her meal or partakes in her auntiesβ conversations. Sometimes, heβll even imitate her pace though heβll gently remind her to slow down and drink some water. If Shiny or Poppy ask him something, heβll give a few replies here and there, but other than that, heβs so quiet itβs completely out of character.
Neither of them knows whatβs going on, but what they do know is that thereβs something different about the boys. Something hasβ¦.changed.
What would they do if the ladies said no?
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh, boy. The guys would beβ¦conflicted π
On one hand, theyβd know why. Now that theyβre a part of their darlingβs family, itβs very understandable for Shiny and Poppy to be protective of her. They wouldnβt admit it out loud, but theyβre pretty relieved that Twylaβs entrusted in the care of people they know and trust. Toonzβs a great older brother and theyβve seen his fierce protectiveness first-hand, Poppyβs an absolute sweetheart who makes the best Tupperware meals, and Shinyβs very capable of handling a gun. Or should I say, shotgun? π
With these queens in Toonzβs crew, this makes the weaselsβ job protecting Twyla a lot easier. On the other handβ¦.they wonβt give up. Even though they respect Tom and his aunties, their love for Twyla is matched by their own stubbornness. The moment they fell for her, she is theirs forever. A day without her in their lives, in their arms where she belongs, is torture. They cherish every single moment they share with her, yet they long for more. Hell, theyβve even started planning their own weddings! They have no intention of letting her go, not even Greasy.
βLet her go? Oh, Shiny and Poppy, my dear ladiesβ¦β¦.I canβt do that. Iβll never let her go. Never again.βΒ Β Β Β Β Β Β
