#moomin witch

One of the biggest things I miss in newer Moomins are Alicia and her grandmother, the Witch. 😔 Neither appear in the original books, instead they were created for the 1990 anime which I think is impressive as both feel very authentic Moomin characters; they could've just as well appear in the books! Fun fact! Both appear as part of the meet & greet cast at the Moominworld theme park in Finland, even the Witch's Hut is a visitable location! 🤗

Assigning a Moomin character to some of my pipes

[writers-in-moominvalley]

🌌Alternate Moominverse🌌

In which the Moomin characters are in fact tiny creatures living secretly in a normal human countryside, however the main characters (perhaps the main cast of Finn Family Moomintroll [Moomintroll, Snufkin, Sniff, Snorkmaiden, Snork, Mr. Hemulen, Moominpappa, Moominmamma, maybe throw in Little My if you so desire] give or take) get lost from their secret small creature society that resembles the regular canon and end up at the cottage of a normal human girl named Alicia who lives with her grandma Clarissa.

Alicia is a neglected young girl who finds these creatures and takes an adoration to them, making friends with and helping them in various ways and in return the small creatures help her aswell with things such as homework. Alicia is hesitant to reveal these creatures to her grandma for various possible reasons that could be unfounded. Later it's revealed that Alicia, her grandma and other humans in the settlement are in danger of being kicked out of their land because Corporations™.

The day is saved thanks to the small creatures sneakily scaring off the people running the corporation and there's a big celebration at the end.

Optional: All the while, there's been a search party for the Moomin family. Eventually they find them and perhaps help in the story's climax against the bad guys and after all is said and done they have to go home, there's an emotional goodbye between Alicia and the family and each go their separate ways, never forgetting the memories they've made.

Me when I'm writing angst and can't wait to unleash it onto the world.

My first thought the second I read the minicomic about the Oshun Oxtra meeting Stinky: What would happen If they meet the Witches, Clarissa and Alicia?

OR better yet: What would Hodgkins think of them and witchcraft? Would he be an elitist snob like the Snork was or would he really chill?

(Hodgkins needs to be a little tipsy to talk about anything that isn't the mechanisms of a machine at length)

Maybe Alicia and the Witch. Or little mys sister who was exchanging hats for bread, and making a hat parade.

I have drawn Alicia and her Grandma but they are already difficult to draw. I accidentally turned Alicia into Jaiden Animations 😔

And I did not expect anyone to throw a magazine comic character at me but thanks!! She's literally just Little My in a different outfit.

This idea was too cute not to draw.
