Well, this is my first time making an animation this long and my first time publishing my work. It took a long time because I'm lazy and drawing with a phone isn't easy, but this is the result. I'm open to any advice 😺
Omg I'm so nevous, this is actually my first time sending an ask n tumblr!!! ANYWAYS!!!!!!!!!!! Has Mychael ever had soda before? Did/Would he like it?
He probably hasn't! He's not the type to get more than what he needs, so he'll walk past the snack aisle whenever he's on a shopping trip. There's not much incentive for him to explore the colorful options there.
If you're curious what his reaction would be if you were to give him one, definitely surprise! Make sure to warn him though,,, he'll hesitate the moment he feels weird fizzy bubbles in his mouth, so now you have to convince him it's safe to swallow haha!
He won't like the ones with strong carbonation, though. Once he gets over the initial shock he'd likely find himself preferring sparkling water over soda.
By the way, here’s a reminder to 🎉 Click for Palestine!
Alright alright, you know me…It's time for another theory regarding Wally and Julie relationship~
Right under this, here we go again…
Oh boy, this is gonna be long…
As always, this is just a theory/headcanon and it's connected to the update from the 11/29.
This is straight up an Appleblossom theory (with a side of FranklyDear) so you're warned before continuing reading this.
Probably going to sound crazy but people know how much I am into this ship so enjoy my madness once again~
Let's cut the charade and let's go to the point:
🍎 Julie and Wally were a couple before the show started 🌸
There was always something that bugged me with Julie's house design. It has a lot of hearts shapes aside from the flowers: the windows, the bushes, the trees in the back,the entrance carpet as well and of course the big heart over the roof.
In Julie's room, this pattern continue even further: her bed have flowers on the top of the legs but the bed headboard have heart shapes carved in it, she have a heart pillow on it as well and the drawer of her vanity have a little heart as the handle.
Plus, the window reflect the heart shape right on the flower carpet in the middle of the room, overlapping each other.
Hearts are, of course, used in other places around the Neighborhood since they are part of the designs. Seeing them around doesn't mean that Wally is involved in them (for example, Barnaby have hearts on his paws and there are hearts on Poppy's window) but I find it very odd to see so many in Julie's home.It could all just be a coincidence but at this point it feels a bit too much to be just a random choice of design: Flower is Julie's symbol, Wally's symbol is the Heart.
I think it COULD hint that Wally and Julie were a couple and they were living together for a while before the show started OR before Frank was introduced in it.
We have further confirmations that the puppets are sentient and they really are actors in the production of Welcome Home show, I am still debating if puppeteers are present in this but with the latest reveals doesn't really fit the narrative (for now).
Another little thing to add is the suspicious name in the url: our-home.
Why is "our" used in the context of Julie's home? "Our Home" could be a hint for a past relationship as well.
🌸 Bound to be 🦋
Frank an Julie do care about each other deeply but they are not in love with each other romantically.
They are best friends nonetheless but they are forced to be in a couple for the sake of the since Julie is the cheerful one and Frank is the grumpy one. Plus, they have very good chemisty with each other.
We saw how far Frank would go for Julie, but he has romantic feelings towards someone else: Eddie.
What was mostly speculations was basically confirmed with the last update and I do believe they were a couple before as well or that they were at least developing feelings for each other.
In my opinion, Ron (the creator of WH) couldn't (or wouldn't) put these two together considering the time when WH was airing (1969-1974), TV would not allow any kind of queerness and gay relationships were a big no, so the erasure was inevitable.
Either way if it was for his artistic choice forced on the characters, placing Frank with Julie would lead to Julie cutting her relationship with Wally or hiding it and same goes with Frank and Eddie.
Sweet Lavender show how much conflict Frank have: he's picturing Eddie in Julie's place, he's mad because Eddie doesn't remember him and Julie cut the kiss off when she sees his face.
🌸 Julie's misplaced feelings ❤︎
Let's think about something for a second. Back in April I made another theory about Julie meeting Wally first instead of Frank. A line on the website "News" push for this even further
"It’s possible that Frank’s existence was ended early in the show’s run or his character had been introduced later on when creative changes took place."
If this is true, how is it possible that Julie have met him first when she arrived in the Neighborhood? Her memories are misplaced and I think her feelings are as well.
She's forced together with Frank because the show require it, for some reason all of their memories are kinda all over the place and they can't remember things properly.
I do believe that is possible that Julie was in love with Wally but something caused her memories to get all mixed up and she doesn't even remember him as her lover anymore.
Wally does remember it and he's trying, in his own way, to make her remember as well.
Well, that's it. I wanted to talk more about other things but this is already too long as it is :') This was fun to work on and I think I am gonna indulge in this theory again in the future…
Aside from ships and theories it was another beautiful update and I am LOVING the Welcome Home project so much!
My last video (the Welcome To Derry intro parody one) blew up everywhere! And I'm, of course, thankful to you all!
I'm aware many folks wanted to take a closer look at the art, take in all the details, so I decided to post the different scenes here, in a single blog, for your enjoyment!
—Hello hello! Here's a little something I've been working on for a good handful of days now. Enjoy it, take in the details, and please remember to share!
