You’re a kid whos mom was obsessed with a cult, and when you were just 12, she sacrificed you. You end in hell and expected to be tortured for eternity, but turns out the demon wanted a child of his own
When Benjamin had first arrived, dripping with the waters of the river that carried damned souls to Hell, the demon insisted he called him “Dad”. He was too afraid to say no, but he held himself back from referring to him at all.
It just didn’t feel right. His real Dad was human, his real Dad made him PB and J in the mornings, and-
His real Dad had stood by while his Mom slipped sleeping pills into his milk and slit his throat while he was sleeping.
The demon watched him as Benjamin cried on the floor of the home the demon inhabited, rocking back and forth as only an inconsolable child could. He did not try to comfort. He did not try to tell him things would be all right. Instead he brought Benjamin a bowl of mushroom soup.
There was a lot of land for Benjamin to explore, with the demon’s supervision. The fields of brittle, black flowers that swayed and crinkled in the warm wind, the rivers of boiling water that flowed throughout. The demon quietly followed him from afar, never making Benjamin feel truly followed. Just watched over.
His mom was always by his side in life. Always hovering at his elbow, always waiting beneath every tree he climbed to catch him if he fell, always insisting she come along on every class trip to watch him.
When Benjamin fell into the boiling river (which he realized somehow didn’t hurt him at all), the demon was there in an instant, hauling him out from under his arms. Benjamin was rigid, petrified he would now be confined to the demon’s house forever now, but the demon set him down on the black, pebbled sand, brushed him off, and stood back, silent.
His mom would have swept him off back inside. His dad would have demurred to whatever his mom said.
But Benjamin was dead, now. His parents couldn’t get to him anymore. And the demon fed him soup and let him wander and read him books (Benjamin suspected all the kid’s books had been gotten especially for him).
So when one day the demon notices Benjamin drawing a picture on the floor and says, “That is very beautiful,” he responds with, “Thanks, dad.”
The demon smiles wider and brighter than Benjamin had ever seen it before, and Benjamin instinctively knows that despite the boiling river and dead flowers, this is home.
Its a family thing
This is a beautiful graphic but it doesn’t explain the pros and cons of each fire type.
The Swedish torch is good for an efficient and contained fire, it’s controlled and good for cooking over and produces less light and heat than other fires. It can be difficult to keep going once you burn through the original log
The teepee is your traditional campfire. Good for heat and light not great for cooking, burns through fuel fairly quickly
The star fire is one of the slowest burning and not well protected but provides an even heat good for slow cooking and is excellent if you have limited fuel and need the protection a fire can provide
The lean to is a compact and efficient fire that evolves into a dense and hot bed of coals. The structure creates a good source of air flow which can help damp wood burn. A slightly better cooking fire that isn’t as bright. It also provides protection from wind on one side
The platform fire is incredibly hot and will create a very thick bed of coals but it doesn’t have a lot of air flow and is a little harder to get started.
The log cabin is big and bright and has lots of air flow which again is good for damp logs. You can also use this structure to start a smaller fire in the middle while drying out bigger logs. This fire will crumble into a messier bed of coals that don’t produce particularly even heat for cooking.
The modified leanto is excellent if you need it to perform multiple functions. The side with more fuel will burn bright and hot and the side with less fuel will burn less hot but more evenly and controlled, this gives you different cooking options.
reblogging for writing purposes. the exact reason will come soon enough.
His boycunt is so mother, the blacksmiths in the medieval period uses the iron from his menstrual blood to forge their weapons just so they can slay
a comic from 2020 based on the a3 stage play take on stranger. in the stage version, zero gives herself up to jon to protect a wounded wolf, and returns his cloak to him as a goodbye. as she bends down to hand the cloak over, the scene is blocked on stage as if she's kissing him (i have to assume this; there is simply no other reason for the way they were posed lol). needless to say, i lost my mind!
bonus:
what i miss most about being a chocolatier (besides the honor of gayest job title imaginable) is we had these massive bars of chocolate for tempering that were 10lbs and we had to break them into smaller chunks. by using a sledgehammer of course. i LIVED for that shit
all the other people in production HATED busting them especially at the end of the shift but i fucking loved it. give me the hammer. i can be trusted with the hammer. And everyone did in fact trust me with the hammer because again they all thought it was tedious and painful. me? i was having the time of my life. even if i had to pick up the slack for other people i would be annoyed for all of five seconds before the euphoria of getting to smash things set in. and the production areas had windows too so customers often just got to watch me beat the shit out of a massive chocolate bar. with a hammer. like a zoo animal. i was getting paid to do that. every day i miss it.

I wish this feeling upon everyone who wants to wear a dress, its really the best
this makes me so happy as a fat hairy guy who likes skirts and dresses i never get to see guys like me in dresses it’s always skinny twinks this makes me so happy 🥺🥺
the dynamic between heinz doofenschmirtz and perry the platypus would probably come off as v romantic and gay if they were two people in a similar age range rather than a dude and a platypus. no i dont ship them but think about it. villainous monologues are already a very romantic and gay thing in itself (don’t question me on this you know im right). listening to somebody ramble excitedly about something they’re proud of is even more romantic and cute af. also doofensmirtz is already gay anyway. the only thing preventing this from becoming Peak Gay is the fact that perry is strictly professional and also a platypus. thanks for coming to my ted talk
“Perry is strictly professional and also a platypus”
I love the fact that “professional” is the first reason and “platypus” is the second, because this is extremely plausible for Perry.
“Yeah no I can’t fuck I’m on duty”.
Did you know that…?
1.Doofenshmirtz isn’t evil anymore,allowing Perry to date him
2.Romance betweet animal/human isn’t frowned upon in the Dwampyverse
we even got humans falling in love with inanimate objects, albeit played for laughs
one of Doofenshmirtz’ dates ditched him for a whale
we are talking about a universe where this is canon
for god’s sake
Look, I’m not that knowledgeable about Phineas and Ferb lore (although I’m very glad that my post resonated with the Gay Scientists Dating Tired Platypuses fandom) but what, pray tell, the fuck is going on? am i having a stroke? im willing to accept the teacher falling in love with her desk because language teachers just are like that but is this nerd about to bang an ice cone?? hello?????
It’s the ice cream machine,and her name is Carla
Let us also pop bottles for the time Doofenshmirtz had to help his ex-thwarty call’s current nemesis become desirable for punching again.
I thought Perry was with the Panda?
That’s a funny history actually.Peter the Panda is also dating his respective nemesis,he even got to met his parents
‘‘our boy is all grown up’‘ ‘‘why is he a panda bear’‘
had me crying
I think there was a scene where Peter and Perry were having dinner together at a fancy restaurant. But that was before Doofenshmirtz stopped being evil.
what the fuck is going on in Phineas and Ferb
@deenalloh you have to watch milo murphy’s law season 2 to know what’s going on with Doofenshmirtz life.He stopped being evil to commit to his future self: ‘’Professor Time’’ inventor of time-travel and a public figure.
and he is trying to be a good guy now
also there’s 2 more time lines where he ends up good
1.Science teacher
2. O.W.C.A agent (The OWCA Files)
this universe is big and vast and doesn’t end at Phineas and Ferb
Okay but saying that just because some people in that universe are in love with animals/inanimate objects doesn’t mean it’s normal.
I mean, in our universe, someone wanted to marry the Eiffel Tower.
yeah..but you see..there’s this wonderful thing in cartoons that real life doesn’t have and its animals being actual sentient/anthropomorphic. So,you can’t compare our life with a cartoon ship in this case
Also Perry is arguably one of the smartest characters on both shows when it comes to deductive reasoning, common sense, and social intelligence. He could tell just by looking at a room exactly what happened there a few hours ago. He can problem-solve on the fly, and does so very often. He has basic engineering skills (or at least, “basic” for this universe, which is kinda masterful for our universe), and can communicate complex thoughts to others despite being physically incapable of speaking English (he even knows ASL!) To claim that Perry the Platypus is incapable of providing consent simply because he isn’t human is a disservice to his character. And honestly, if we’re going by the anthropological definition of “human” (bipedal, opposable thumbs, ability to communicate complex thought), then he is by all means “human.” He’s just… A Human Platypus. …?
What the fuck became of my post
Also Doof is legally an Ocelot
Logan that only raises more questions on an already strange post
It’s canon. In the OWCA Files. Him legally being an ocelot is what allows him to be an agent.
What the FUCK
Yeah, in one part of his long, tragic backstory, he was abandon and raised by ocelots
I was wondering when someone was gonna bring up the ocelot thing
@looney-mooney I agree with this vit there’s one thing, even if Perry has amazing deductive reasoning he has to at least fall to one trap. That’s just the law of nature.
@oceanic-panic-panic bold of you to assume that Perry doesn’t let himself get trapped on purpose at least 2/3 of the time. Perry always escapes the traps. And he always waits for Doofenshmirtz to finish monologuing before escaping from them. It’s part of their routine, something they both expect: Perry bursts in, gets trapped, patiently listens to doof’s rant of the day, escapes the trap, fights his nemesis, and blows up the Inator. Whenever this routine is broken, they work to maintain it anyway - I can think of at least like 3 instances where Perry purposefully, politely traps himself, and several more where Doofenshmirtz gets impatient and sets Perry free from the trap himself so they can fight.
Perry getting trapped isn’t a sign of some intellectual folley - it’s a sign of his incredible problem-solving skills that he can escape them so easily, and a sign of his social intelligence that he knows to politely wait until his nemesis is ready to stop venting and start fighting.
But why does Perry need to be trapped for his nemesis to vent? Easy. Doofenshmirtz is a victim of severe child abuse, and needs to feel as though he’s somewhat in control of the situation before allowing himself to be vulnerable. Perry being trapped makes him feel safe, and Perry catches on to this. It’s an intricate social dance that none of his coworkers have mastered, the ability to communicate with and accomidate for a villain with special needs. And though it takes the whole summer, they eventually don’t even need the traps, because Perry makes Heinz feel safe.
I freaking LOVE EVERY BIT OF THIS
SO much
Yo what if the reason the O.W.C.A. only has animal agents is because instead of being a crime fighting organization, it’s simply an elaborate therapy program to pair animals with “supervillains” who are actually just trauma victims, helping them to work through their issues whenever possible and containing their collateral damage whenever therapeutic techniques worth. After all, we already know from Peter the Panda and his nemesis that most of these villain/agent pairings wind up on some level of friendly terms, and in the case of Perry and Doof I’d imagine that Perry is the only one who has heard most of Doof’s assorted-levels-of-tragic backstories, given that not even his ex-wife believed that he was an evil scientist, and who’s going to know you better then the person/animal that you’re constantly sharing traumatic shit with AND by necessity has studied most of what’s known about you in order to try and predict what kind of bullshit you’ll be on today.
Tl,Dr; fuck Batman/Joker hero/villain discourse, the real intellectuals are on Doof/Perry hero/villain discourse
Does nobody else remember the time Perry helped Doof create an inator? That’s basically fanfiction but canon in my mind.
You meant the episode were Perry willingly took Doofenshmirtz’s hand and lead him out of his evil block?
and performed various activities
‘‘nope’‘
a trust fall
‘‘I’m flattered but no’‘
‘’I take a break while you do push-ups’’
‘‘That’s my guy’‘
and they HELD HANDS for no reason at all….???
There’s also scene where a kid spots Perry on his motorcycle at a red light, he tips his hat, the light turns green and he drives away, and the mom who’s driving doesn’t even look concerned that there was a platypus in a fedora driving the motorcycle next to her
Plus the Niagara Falls scene from Sidetracked where Perry does this before heading out
And not to make this thread that I’ve already started referring to as the Perryshmirtz Bible even longer considering how long it already is, but I’d just like to say that even if this relationship isn’t your cup of tea (which is totally fine, like what you like, dislike what you don’t), I just want you to please note that every single argument I’ve seen against the ship’s validity is completely fallible considering all the above points from canon and the fact that the show itself goes heavy-handed on the metaphor from It’s About Time! forward. There’s a pretty clear metaphorical multi-season arc about cheating and fixing the collateral damage that caused for both parties from that episode up to Lost in Danville, using both symbolism and allegorical text to make that point (Perry walking in on Peter and Doof fighting, there’s a paw mark on Doof’s cheek - you can already guess what that’s supposed to mean, hiding Peter away in the closet, the whole song afterwards where Perry sadly accepts being replaced, literally going on what looked like Dr. Phil to fix the relationship, and then when you look at Lost in Danville - Doof telling Professor Mystery he would “never want to be the other evil scientist” AKA the other man, Doof calling Peter his “thwarty call” [really? that flew right under Disney’s radar? LMAO], “what could he give you that I couldn’t give you?” and that whole scene where I was wondering whether or not I should even be there because that got way too personal, etc. Cartoons are no stranger to metaphors). So yeah, it’s completely supported as a metaphor already in canon, and even outside of that, it’s often been supported in other canon works and merchandise, and even been supported by Dan and Swampy themselves as a valid ship.
And after all, why shouldn’t it be in a world where one of Doof’s exes left him for a whale, a man can be in love with a milk carton and have milk carton kids, a teacher can be in love with a desk, and a kid can be in love with an ice cream machine? Not to mention as well, Marty the Rabbit Boy and his musical blender exists which also implies the likelihood of him having at least one human and one rabbit parent (for all I know, this could be the son of Jessica and Roger Rabbit LMAO). It’s also worth mentioning that in this universe, Major Monogram had to take a class on animal sensitivity for treating his animal agents as lesser species where he had to write on the chalkboard over and over that “animals are people, too”. But hey, while we’re on the topic, back to the Jessica and Roger Rabbit thing because I see us using that comparison a lot - and there really is no difference. “But Perry can’t talk” neither can people who are mute. Even besides that, he did at least once in Night of the Living Pharmacists where he was turned into one of the Doof-zombie animal hybrids like the other agents, and he was the only animal agent who did say “lots of me” in clear English whereas the others kept to their regular animal noises, which sort of implies that Perry could probably speak at least some English, but rather chooses not to, much like how Ferb most of the time chooses not to speak. “But the toons know that they’re toons; this is reality for PNF characters” not necessarily - there’s been jokes and moments in the past that regularly break the fourth wall, implying that they either know or at least have some knowledge of the idea that they’re living in a cartoon show world. And even still, that doesn’t matter so much when you take into account the rest of the rules of this particular universe. And dare I say it, the Who Framed Roger Rabbit? universe was just as crazy in collaboration with the real world (a universe that also similarly used cheating metaphors like catching Jessica playing patty-cake with another man - though the metaphors there were even more on the nose), and if memory serves, even the cartoon baby was literally like a 40 year old man who was regularly getting bitches, lmao. I’ll bet you anything that Dan and Swampy sat down to watch that movie one day, were told they couldn’t make anything crazier, said “hold my beer”, and that’s how we ended up with Dwampyverse in the gloriously weird way that it’s been presented.
I get it looks weird from an outsider’s viewpoint, too. I was you a few weeks ago before my rewatch, because I hadn’t seen the show since I was 6 or 7 and forgot that all of these things even happened, but it’s pretty blatant when you watch the show especially as an adult. That metaphor is almost impossible to miss. Even I was surprised that Disney let all of that stuff slide the way they did, but because it can be somewhat passed as humorous because one character is a platypus and the other is human presenting (ocelot adoption aside), that’s probably why they let the metaphor run its course more openly than, say.. shutting down Buford and Baljeet’s queercoding with bromance and “he’s like my least favorite brother” because they’re two human boys and Disney just can’t give the LGBTQ+ crowd anything.
But anyway. It’s fine if you’re not interested in or don’t like Perryshmirtz - I wouldn’t force anyone to ship it, or to ship anything in general. If you don’t like it, you don’t like it, end of story. But where I do stop you is when you’re making arguments against its in-universe validity, because by validity standards alone, the rules of the PNF universe checks out. Comparing a cartoon universe to our own only works so far when cartoons regularly bend the rules of our reality to the furthest point it can. I mean honestly, if half the contraptions that Phineas and Ferb build in one single day could A) actually be built that fast and B) could work flawlessly the way they do without extended time for testing and research needed, we could’ve solved so many problems in the world already. And that’s just cartoon universe basics, that’s not even getting into the logistics of how much these things would cost in our world or even cartoon physics. But regardless, if it’s valid by the cartoon universe’s standards before the court, then it’s a valid relationship in that universe.
