Pt. 1 of making aesthetics for some my fav show characters + all fun facts I know abt them + opinions or headcannons (idk)
Adding name and definition
— full name is Doraline Panfilia López Márquez
— birthday is september 12, 1992
I feel like Dora might’ve grown like… insecurities or smth in the ‘Dora and Friends / DAF’ series. She’s gotten a lot more calm now if you couldn’t tell. like idk how anxiety works, or js something like that because of how she acts. Not in a bad way
I think out of her friend group (Naiya, Kate, Emma, Alana, Pablo) her closest friend is between Naiya and Kate. Literally any story Naiya got from her abuela, Dora knows, and their bond is js 😊😊😊.
With Kate, they’re very similar. Kate is energetic as Dora was, and definitely friends as kids like shown in the ‘Dora the Explorer / DTE’ series. Kate kept her enthusiasm, while Dora kinda lost some of it from influence I’d say? Kate would be her go to person. I’m DAF, they kinda cling to eachother. Like in that one pirate episode (We Save a Pirate Ship!) in DAF at the end of the episode, they like cling onto eachother which is so cute. But they don’t let go of eachother, Kate is kinda like holding Dora’s hands in a comforting way. PLATONICALLY!! But still js so cuteee 🥹🥹
Dora also defends her self less, and her friend group probably noticed that. Like in DTE, Dora easily defends herself and others. Vs DAF, she’s doing that less. Yes she’s comforting her friends and stuff. And the friend being comforted is being comforted by the others too, but it’s never one specific friend being comforted. Dora would be the friend who mainly gets comforted. Not in every episode, but when a friend needs comfort, she’s usually that friend.
Example is in the episode We Save The Music, if you are able to watch it (Prime Video, YouTube Primitime, Paramount+, Apple Movies, Fandango at home), there’s that one scene where Emma and Pablo comfort Dora. I think it’s so cute ☺️ cuz D is like a little bean in the moment. The way she hugs her guitar and stuff, is kinda like her looking for comfort. Then Emma comes along to stand up for Dora with the hand on shoulder thing or as I remember. Ima js insert the scene 😃
She doesn’t defend her self. She hugs the guitar. I feel like that’s a sign she wants comfort, or she can’t handle something? Idk. But it’s t definitely means something.
There’s also this one scene in Community Garden episode in DAF (I couldn’t find the name of it anywhere). Dora’s coming back to the others and setting a book down. So she probably just walked off for a quick book break. That made me think she might get overstimulated too sometimes, which is why her friends are touchey with her. Like putting their hand on her back, or just doing some kind of physical contact. It prob helps calm her down or smth.
I think Pablo and Dora also have a close friendship. I do ship them once in a while but it’s kinda of a switch sense I ship him with Kate too. Dora probably could also go to Pablo, even if he isn’t as good with comforting her. He’s trying, that’s what cheers her up. Relation ship with her twin younger siblings are sooo cute
Dora is DEFINITELY a major book work. She’d totally love PJO and/or Harry Potter. She probably also gets to sleep on time. Her parents trust her enough to let her pick her bedtime. She probably picks around 8-9. No more, small change of less. And she still sleeps with her Osito, def a comfort object.
thaw it for that. I def might make an AU with my own cos for this fandom sense I have some already. But rip, fandom is dead 😭
