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?
Iโm so, so, so sorry this took a while! ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ Things have been really crazy, but at last I have answered your awesome new ask! ๐คฉ๐คฉ๐คฉ๐คฉ๐คฉ And itโs another gift? ๐ฅบ @mosaic-marshlands, what did I ever do to deserve all of these amazing presents?!?!?!?! ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy!!!! ๐๐๐๐๐๐ Iโm happy you love my reply to your wonderful gift and thank you so much for your own reply!!! ^^ And Psycho popping out of Twylaโs hair purring while the others are fighting over her?
@weaselnerd, @lastofautumn, @amberfox232, @spookiifi, @alexissoosigma52288, @heartsissopure, @trashogram A.K.A. @mantisandthemoondragon, help me Iโm getting cuteness overload again!!!!!! ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐งกโค๐๐๐๐๐๐โค๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐งก
The weasels are gonna be really surprised when they find out the Golden Girlsโ connections to the twins. Poppy and Shinyโฆadopted them? Theyโre family now? ๐ฅบ Even Smartassโs gotta admit, he didnโt see that one coming! This is quite a surprise, but heโs gotta respect Toonz for having a good head on his shoulders. Plus, theyโre wonderful aunties! ๐ฅฐ How would the guys go about earning THEIR approval? Ooh, I love this new challenge! ๐๐๐ HmmโฆI think their tactics would change, depending on their how their efforts to earn approval from each aunt would turn out ๐ค
Thatโs true, she is quite stubborn ๐ And the boys know this, so their tactics rely on strong determination and hard work. In fact, theyโre even more determined since last time didnโt work (for the other four, I mean ๐คฃ). ย ย ย ย ย
For Smartass, I think his main tactic is arranging a meeting with her like he did with Tom. Whether itโs at the office or the nightclub Shiny now owns, she decides. If she wants to have the meeting at Headquarters, sheโs going to notice that the office isโฆtidier 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 didnโt have a single bullet hole, and the whole waiting lobby/living room is decorated with new, elegant furniture the boys stole โ I mean, bought ๐
โSo, you want toโฆincrease your influence all around Toontown in hopes of better protection for Twyla?โ
โYeah, all around. Uptown may be a better district than thaโ one here, but you and I both know thereโs always some douchebags in there who want โta start shit with Twyla. And with all thaโ connections Iโve got, I can make things so much better for her! Listen, I know I ainโt 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.โย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย
Greasyโs practically sweating bullets here ๐
โHold up. Youโฆand Twyla?โ โSรญ. 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.โ โHmmโฆIโve got my eyes on you, Rodriguez.โ Yeah, heโs most likely gonna get watched like a hawk ๐ But heโs determined to win, so heโs going to win approval from his Lupitaโs tough tรญa by performing some of his famous โ and most daring โ skills. La Verdadera Destreza, a Spanish tradition of fencing that originated in 16th-century Spain that was taught in Greasyโs 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 ๐๐คฃ๐), heโs going to take the opportunity to make his latest performance into something incredibly complex. Hell, heโll even go as far as taking on 10,000 other swordfighters while heโs blindfolded and doing a war dance like all weasels do! I give you and @just-kit-ink plenty of credit for that fun fact ๐๐
โWaitโฆyouโre doing this blindfolded?! ๐จ Greasy, are you sure youโre gonna be OK?โ
โLupita, mi amor, I assure you Iโm going to be just fine ๐ And please have Tom on the seat next to Shiny, perhaps this will change his mind.โย
Wheezyโs 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! ๐ Wheezy is just the right guy, and he has all the qualifications! Plus, heโs saner oh please, heโs just as crazy as the rest of them ๐. And who would be better than a medic? Lol, Iโm just imagining the look on her face when he tells her this ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ โSoโฆyouโre a doctor too? ๐คจโ โMm-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, Iโm much better for Twyla. Iโve learned medicine since I was a kid, and Iโve practiced a lot growinโ up. I know that sheโs got her own medic and I hear heโs 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.โ ย ย ย
โโฆโฆ. So, youโre a doctor too? ๐คจโย ย ย ย ย
Psychoโs as fierce as he is silly andโฆwell, Psycho ๐คฃ His tactic of choice is keeping Twyla safe whenever Tomโs 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. Theyโre just chilling and having a great timeโฆwhen Shiny and Psycho notice that some of the other customers are making fun of Twyla and pointing at her (those bastards ๐ข). Shiny doesnโt even have to say a word, Psycho understands the assignment. Heโll sneak off into the breakroom, yoink an extra uniform and plot their horrific, gruesome demise politely deliver their order.
โAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!! THE CRABโS PINCHING MY HAND!!!!!!!โ
If Stupid has already won Tomโs approval, heโs for sure going to win Shinyโs too! ๐๐ Since I mentioned that Twylaโs been teaching him about halfie Toons, Stuโs gonna share all these fun facts with Shiny and heโs super excited about what Twylaโs been teaching him. โSo, theyโre both great swimmers, huh?โ โYup! Not only that, but theyโre 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, Iโve seen them run fast enough to make a cheetah green with envy! I bet they can even win a race against Speedy and Roadrunner!โ ย ย
Itโs 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, sheโs gonna keep a very close eye on them. Especially when she starts toโฆnotice other things. During the meeting, she sees that Smartassโs got quite a couple of picture frames on his desk. And they all have photos of Twyla. While theyโre pretty romantic, sheโll get a strange vibe of how Smartass has more than one photo of her. Not only that, but sheโll get the same vibe from the others too. Like, if sheโs at the flower shop, Greasyโs there looking for rosesโฆwhich happens to one be of Twylaโs favorite flowers. Or that Wheezyโs relaxing while reading Edgar Allan Poeโฆwho is one of Twylaโs favorite authors. And Psycho, whoโs already a little strange himself, is napping on the couch with his crescent moon pillowsโฆwhich are kinda similar to the ones Twyla has ๐
You might wanna wish her good luck ๐
๐ Sheโs not ready for the boysโ Yandere shenanigans either XD For this lovely seamstress, the weaselsโ 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 sheโs got a lot of questions as well, and heโs more than ready to answer them after spending weeks practicing and rehearsing how this meeting would go. Besides that, another tactic I think heโd also have is supporting her wonderful ideas in sewing outfits for Twyla (she absolutely loves her new scarf, by the way! ^^)! ๐ Heโll give plenty of encouraging feedback for what Poppy has in mind, and heโll even add helpful tips!
โSo, you really think sheโll love this bolero?โ
โAbsolutely โpositivityโ (positively)! Most outfits she wears for spring and summer are cute and comfortable, but she likes a touch of elegance like thaโ classy dame she is. I know how much she loves her biker jacket, but she needs a little change of wardrobe now that โtha flowers are bloominโ. Trust me, Pops, sheโs gonna love your World Goth Day gift.โ
โMerci. Wait, how do you know Twyla celebrates World Goth Day?โ
Greasy is a man of many talents, and cooking is one of them! ๐ณ Poppy will find him outside in the backyard over an open fire, working harder than usual and putting a lot of effort into Twylaโs mealโฆwhile heโs got other meals prepared all over the table. Heโs a very talented chef, and every dish he prepares is a masterpiece. โAre youโฆmaking lunch?โ โSรญ! My princess certainly enjoys my lechรณn asado, and I am more than happy to be her humble chef!โ โThatโs very sweet, but arenโt you working a little too hard? It looks like youโre turning lunch into a whole buffet table." โOh! 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!โ ย ย
Since Wheezyโs also a doctor, heโs gonna try winning Poppyโs 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 Poppyโs five gold stars, especially if, God forbid, something happens to Twyla again. โWait, youโre a doctor too? I didnโt know that!โ โYeah, well, if youโre gonna be part of a gang with those three bloody lunatics, you gotta learn how tโbe 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." โWellโฆyou do have a fair point โ Hold on ๐๐โ However, like with Smartass, I imagine what Wheezy would also do to prove himself is stay close to Twyla when they go horseback riding! ๐ As a cowboy, he is excellent with horses and knows how to earn their trust. Iโm not sure if Poppyโs ever done horseback riding before, but Wheezy and Twyla will help and show her that riding a horse is an incredible experience! And itโs gonna be quite an experience for Wheezy as wellโฆsince the horses Poppy and Twyla have wonโt get up because they want more cuddles ๐ฅฐ And while Wheezyโs back is turned, the entire herd has joined ๐๐๐
โAll right, ladies. You ready for another ride โ Oh, youโve got tโbe kiddinโ me.โ
โSorry, Wheezy! ๐
We tried telling them to get up, butโฆโ
โThey gave us the puppy eyes. How could we say no these majestic creatures? ๐ฅบโ
โโฆ.โ *glances at the horses* โItโs been 10 minutes ๐ Give me back my woman.โ
The Horses: No ๐ย ย ย ย ย
Like the other three, Psychoโs 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 heโll win the sweet-natured doeโs approval. And heโll 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 Poppyโs blessing, Psycho is going to be calm like a relaxed puppyโฆwho really wants to be as close to Twyla as possible.
โTwyla, the tea is almost ready. Could you pass me the mugs, please?โ
*pops out of Twylaโs hair holding three mugs* โHere you go!โ
โMerci, Psycho. Wait โ?! ๐๐โ
Iโm absolutely cracking up over your hilarious idea of Tom catching Psycho on camera!!! ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐๐๐ And now itโs my turn to make you laugh ๐
โPoppy, you gotta believe me. Psychoโs trying to play his game with you like he did with me, and Iโve got proof โ Wait. Whereโs my phone?โ
*glances towards the window and sees this little guy waving hello while holding Tomโs phone* โโฆ.Be right back, Iโm gonna go open the window. Itโs getting kinda warm in here.โ *walks over the window, unlocks it*
โPSYCHO!!!! GIVE ME BACK MY GODDAMN PHONE!!!! ๐ข๐ข๐ขโ
โNOT A CHANCE IN HELL!!!โ
I think like with Shiny and Tom, Stupid just wants to hang out with Poppy ๐ All he wants is to enjoy a nice, relaxing day with Twy-Twyโs aunts. Twyla also enjoys teaching him how to create art, so this sweet potatoโs eager to show Poppy all of his projects! โOK, you ready?โ โYes! Iโm curious to see what youโve created โ Oh, mon Dieu! You can make art out of food?! ๐คฉ I love the colors and details! And are these grapes Twylaโs eyes? This is gorgeous! Shiny, come here! Youโve got to see this beautiful artwork!โ
Just like Shiny, Poppy will pick up on the boysโ odd affection. Like, if theyโre having Twyla and Greasy over for lunch, Poppyโs going to notice the gangsterโs behavior. Usually, when heโs in the presence of women, heโs 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 Twylaโฆhe doesnโt remove his gaze from her even while heโs eating. Tiny hearts are popping around his head ๐, his eyes full of nothing but love and obsession adoration as she takes a bite of her meal or partakes in her auntiesโ conversations. Sometimes, heโll even imitate her pace though heโll gently remind her to slow down and drink some water. If Shiny or Poppy ask him something, heโll give a few replies here and there, but other than that, heโs so quiet itโs completely out of character.
Neither of them knows whatโs going on, but what they do know is that thereโs something different about the boys. Something hasโฆ.changed.
What would they do if the ladies said no?
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh, boy. The guys would beโฆconflicted ๐
On one hand, theyโd know why. Now that theyโre a part of their darlingโs family, itโs very understandable for Shiny and Poppy to be protective of her. They wouldnโt admit it out loud, but theyโre pretty relieved that Twylaโs entrusted in the care of people they know and trust. Toonzโs a great older brother and theyโve seen his fierce protectiveness first-hand, Poppyโs an absolute sweetheart who makes the best Tupperware meals, and Shinyโs very capable of handling a gun. Or should I say, shotgun? ๐
With these queens in Toonzโs crew, this makes the weaselsโ job protecting Twyla a lot easier. On the other handโฆ.they wonโt 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, theyโve even started planning their own weddings! They have no intention of letting her go, not even Greasy.
โLet her go? Oh, Shiny and Poppy, my dear ladiesโฆโฆ.I canโt do that. Iโll never let her go. Never again.โย ย ย ย ย ย ย
