Junior: *running into the room* Ludwig just said he doesn’t love me anymore!
Bowser: What?!
Ludwig: *following him in* I did not say that. I just said that we are not driving all the way to the Mushroom Kingdom just so you can punch Mario in the face.
Updated gender/sexuality shit bc TDOV was last Monday lol:
I headcanon that Koopas' grasp on gender and sexuality used to be like, xenogenders and neopronouns (paleopronouns?), lesboys, etc, but they had to conform to standards set by other kingdoms and it was mostly lost to time.
Junior: What's a pronoun? What's a S-word-uality? I'm a boy [she's not but doesn't know yet lmao], and I like Sage, who's a girl.
Hop: Can I do what Larry does? I'm a boy, but being a girl sometimes sounds cool! [does she know?]
Hip: *just got it explained to him in a kid-friendly way* Oh, okay, that makes sense! I'm a boy, and romance is gross! [will be demiromantic in the future]
Bigmouth: I've just started learning about gender and sexuality from Kooky. I think I'm a cis boy, and I like he/him. I still think romance is gross right now, but I also think Amy Rose is kinda cute, but so is Ash Ketch– [can't spell bigmouth without bi]
Cheatsy: Geez, Bigmouth, let others have a turn! Apparently I'm transmasc now, they/he, and I'm probably aromantic. I don't want to think about... y'know... that... so I guess I'm ace?
Morton: Demiboy, I think. Um, he/him! I'm demi!
Larry: I'm genderfluid, bitches! She/he (I used they for a bit but that didn't fit), and I think I'm pan-oriented aroace! Geez, it's hard to keep up with labels...
Bully: Listen, man, I'm a normal– erm, sorry. Cis dude. I was kinda transphobic before, so I'm still learnin'. Also I'm gay. [bully tried to convince himself he was straight by dating a bunch of girls]
Wendy: *wearing a trans-colored bow* Isn't it obvious? She/her. Also, I'm straight.
Iggy: I've been reading about ancient Koopa gender studies, and my eyes have been opened. I'm an agender aromantic lesbian boygirl. I use any pronouns, and I encourage you to get 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 with neopronouns when talking about me! (Hopefully Surge isn't too upset about me being aro...) [*slaps iggy* this koopaling can hold so much gender]
Kootie Pie: I'm into boys and boys alone, and I'm cis. [token cishet]
Roy: Turns out I'm bi, trans guy! He/him, unless you disrespect me, then my pronouns become lethal/threat. [came up with that myself lmao]
Kooky: I'm stealing that line, but swapping he/him for they/them! I don't really have a gender, I'm just Kooky von Koopa! I guess you could say I'm genderkooky! *cackles* And I guess I'm aromantic and asexual. Gives me more time to plan world domination! *cackles* In all seriousness, yeah, I am aroace. [they tried dating but it didn't work]
Lemmy: Aromantic gay bigender trans man! He/him! If you refer to me as she/her and you're not named Larry, Morton, or Iggy, I'll steal your kneecaps and sell them on the black market :3
