I redesigned ALL my Hey Arnold fankids and even made a few more! This is the ensemble picture, and I'll be uploading the individual pics over the week. This is also where I'm going to write up their personalities!

Helena Gammelthorpe is all of Curly's emotional instability and Rhonda's constant need for dramatics, resulting in a very neurotic girl who thrives on the perception that she's perfect. The most popular girl in school, she longs for the heart of the one person she can never predict. She enjoys dancing, acting, and romance books.

Patrick Berman is a lot like his dad Harold. Sensitive, sweet, and a crybaby. However he lacks both his father's tough outer shell and his mother Patty's ability to shut the world out. Everyone thinks he's scary since he's so quiet, when really he's about two seconds away from crying like a baby. He enjoys sci-fi movies, drawing, and food.

Stella Shortman is a cool customer with a passion for sports, especially karate and boxing. She's stubborn as a mule and strong as an ox, and is known as the physically toughest girl in her grade. Despite her pedigree as a tough girl, Stella prides herself on her appearance, always maintaining herself to be as feminine as possible. She likes sports, brushing her hair, and exercising.

Phillip Shortman is a kind boy who was told all throughout his childhood that he's "just like his father", who's something of a legend in Hillwood. Tired of this perception, he got really into heavy metal and grunge at the age of 10 and adopted a punkish devil-may-care attitude. People say this makes him seem more like his MOTHER instead, but he'll take it. He's completely unaware of the histrionic girl who is completely over the moon for him. He likes punk rock music, videogames, and rainy days.

Eleanor Shortman is raw creativity personified. She's usually always seen reading, or sketching, or doing origami. She doesn't speak much and usually has her head in the clouds, however when she does speak, she's great at helping everyone stop and smell the roses. She likes dragons, epic tomes, and digging around in places she shouldn't be.

Marten Johanssen is the Shortman's best friend. He's so close to the family he calls Arnold and Helga his aunt and uncle, and has spent more nights sleeping over than he can count. Marten is regarded as the coolest kid in class, due to his cool as a cucumber nature. He lacks his best friend Phillip's temper and has a lackadaisical, relaxed approach to life. He enjoys breakfast sandwiches, studying history, and sports.

Maximus "Max" Gammelthorpe is Helena's younger brother by a year, and is already taller than her, something she steams over. He's a social chameleon, able to blend in with any clique like an old friend. This helps support his secret identity: The Broker, an information merchant who can uncover anything going on in Hillwood...for a price. Usually he just asks for candy, but the harder the job, the higher the price. He also has a "good" alter go: Max Caliber, Private Eye, a hardnosed detective who helps out with REAL problems, free of charge. He enjoys old noir movies, pro wrestling, and annoying his older sister Helena.

The Worst Senior Grad Bash of All Time: a Hey Arnold! Fanfic

Summary: It's the end of senior year, and the class of PS118 is going on a week-long field trip to the beach for the best senior grad bash, ever! Boys are looking forward to ladies in bikinis, girls are looking forward to steamy summer romances and the future.

Helga promises herself that this will be the summer she lets go of Arnold, who is still as lovesick as ever over "Little Miss Perfect". Arnold aims to have a great time on the beach, and maybe get Lila to like him like him... (and maybe see her in a bikini). Rhonda wants to tan, date, and have fun, but she's having a hard time doing that when her least favorite admirer has become a bit of a magnet for the ladies. Gerald acts like he's got his eyes set on the beach babes, but Phoebe is the one he's got his heart set on.

Unfortunately for the class, trouble is brewing behind the scenes, and one criminal group's business is about to become theirs. They're in for a week full of surfing, scuba diving, and pirate ghost stories come to life! They may just have to set sail this summer holiday to save one of their own, with Gerald, Helga, and Arnold at the helm.

COMING JULY???

As mentioned in this lovely little post here, I found an old outline of mine detailing what the me of five or so years ago referred to in my Samsung Notes as TWGBOAT-- or, The Worst Senior Gradbash of All Time. This story is heavy on comedy, romance, and adventure, and I can promise a wild ride from start to finish, as evidenced by the above screenshots of the original outline.

Helga tries (and fails) to get over Arnold, Curly is an unintentional heartthrob, Gerald and Phoebe are smitten with each other, and Lila is starting to drop hints that Arnold’s affections might not be so unrequited. This is gonna have Curly-Helga friendship, Rhonda refusing to admit she’s jealous, a very tired-of-this Nadine, a confused!Arnold, and a whole lot of shenanigans. Then we have Big Patty who is really just trying to keep this all together please everybody, especially you arnold, stop sticking your nose into trouble for three goddamn minutes she needs a cup of tea.

This is kind of a feeler to see how interested people are in the story itself. Worst case scenario, I may just post the outline by itself in a series of tagged “headcanons”. This little plot bunny is just too fun for me to never share in any capacity!
