Yeah burn me, "booo he said he wouldnt post about TSBS anymore yet here his ugly ass is!!" I know, but when I see an angst opportunity, I take it. My apologies for potentially misleading you so have these ducks as side dish
To clear things up: Im not gonna post much about TSBS, but there are gonna be some small posts about it every now and then when I see reason to, just not daily as before. All my fandoms (unless its my current hyperfixation) will be that way, too, because thats how my brain works c: , sorry again tho
I hate that Andromeda/Charlie/Puppet are my only references for this kind of design,, it's a challenge on if I want to lean away from sun and moon's daycare theming or do a normal daycare fit... so many brain thoughts, not enough art.... no, I don't count earth/terra as a ref for what I'm aiming for
(I hope the quality of the image isn't totally killed)
I just want to share some thoughts on Puppet!
I really like Puppet, she grew a lot on me over the short time I've been binge watching all the shows. Puppet started off as this silly guy that loves anime and is Monty's dubious friend.
She just grew from there. She met Foxy and Monty, and tried helping Sun and Moon. She revealed her own secret identity of being a woman and accepted that and lived as herself more and more. She made up with Golden and rekindled a relationship with her son, Freddy.
She found a life partner in Foxy and took on the role of being Foxy's own adoptive son's Mother. She helped save Earth when New Moon/Nexus first chose to go down his path and attacked his family. She helped advise Monty to make better decisions in their own life. She tried being more involved in the bigger universe because she was tired of being on the side and watching from the background. Unable to interfere.
She was never a perfect being, she made mistakes and had just as many flaws as the rest of the cast. Her dimension died because of her choices and she did leave Freddy when he was born. She's made mistakes even with decisions to use her own powers and when and when not to interfere and help.
I just like how she's changed so much. How she showed the rest of the cast of characters they can be more. They are not just animatronics.
Her death was sad, no kindness was spared to her. She had no kind words. Eclipse saw her off but even now he's still learning and not able to express to his friend the things he probably wanted to. Puppet didn't get to say goodbye to all her friends and family.
To me that's sad. There's still beauty in her death. She laid her life down to save a child. She was given no real options but chose to let her last moments and last decisions still mean something.
She's just neat and I don't know how much Matt contribute to the writing of her character but I think she's neat and while her ending is sad I'm still excited for Matt. I heard he's moving to do greater things with his career and that's awesome for him. (he's also coming back to do occasional cameos so it's not a total goodbye!)
I used flower language for this farewell image by the way! White chrysanthemums, white lilies, pink and purple orchids, and purple carnations are used in farewells and funerals. I also did stained glass cause idk it's pretty. (useless info, but the glass is also transparent)
Jack - Weh-...Where am I- How did I even end up here?
[Jack starts looking around]
Jack - Woah....this place looks so....
A familiar voice - Beautiful? I do agree...
Jack - WHO-...Wait a minute...
[The familiar voice turns around]
Puppet - Heeeeyyyy buddy.
Jack - Mothe-..Puppet?!
Puppet - You can still call me Mother if you want.
Jack - Right! Uhm....How am I here? And What is here?
Puppet - Its my...I guess new home..? Its where I stay....
Jack - Can you..-Well I was gonna ask if you can even leave but I guess you can't...
Puppet - Yeah...I can't leave even if I wanted to but nevermind that! How are you here jack?
Jack - Well Uhhh I used my powers and jumped Ruin!
Puppet - Powers...?-
[ Puppet stares at jack and looks at his no longer leaf tail and his bell has hair now ]
Puppet - Jack....How did you even get these powers?! You shouldn't be able to get them...
Jack - I ate Charlies hair!
Puppet - ...That...is- not very uncommon for you actaully...But why?!- WHAT HAPPENED WHIL- I FOLLOW CHARLIE AROUND AS A SPIRIT I SHOULD ALREADY-
Jack - well 1. I got very bored. 2. Uhhh lot of stuff...Dad left alone me awhile ago because he was being hunted by bounty hunters but he's back and safe..
Puppet - Well..at least he came home and visited you right?
Jack - ....No..
Puppet - I swear these eclipses and their goddamn tunnel vis- ugh...nevermind that....What can you uhh do with these abilities...
Jack - Uhhh I can turn things into other verisons of themselves! Same with objects!
Puppet - Alright so just basic things.
Jack - Uhhhh I can Bring plants to life but only for a limited amount of time!
Puppet - Uh huh...
Jack - I can turn into other verisons of myself!
Puppet - You were able to do that before..
Jack - And I can pull things from other dimensions and Can make things come to life!
Puppet - I dunno what to be concern more about..
Jack - I mean The things coming to life eventually do stop being alive after like a hour.
Puppet - Oh.
Jack - ANYWAYS! Can we hang out!
Puppet - I- I really would love to...but you cannot stay here...
Jack - Why not...?
Puppet - Well one...im sure Solar or the others would want you to stay with and secondly I don't think ruin would want you in his head...or..wherever this is.
Jack - Okay then I can bring you back!
Puppet - No...Jack you cant...
Jack - But why...? I know I have dad but...
Puppet - But don't you have Nebula as your new mom?
Jack - Well..Kinda...But I don't see her as a mother! And she doesn't really like...hang out with me...she only hangs out with Dad...
Puppet - I see...Jack you cannot stay here or keep knocking Ruin out when you want to see me,
Jack - How do you know I was gonna do that?!
Puppet - Jack. I took care of you for months until Solar came back and before I left you think I don't know how you act?
Jack - But I don't have anyone else to hang out with.....Dazzles at school the entire day.... TJ is in Moons room all the time... Sun is too busy with Dazzle or Other things.. I don't really hang with Moon. I don't wanna accidentally annoy Cosmo, Nebula is with Solar everytime she visits..Solar is always with Nebula when she visits... Terra is busy..and Monty is also very busy and my only other Best friend is gone...
Puppet - You could...always hang out with Charlie...or FC...Or Andrew Andy and Jake.
Jack - Charlie seems like the only valid option.
Puppet - Damn.
Jack - AND IM NOT SAYING THAT CAUSE I SEE HER AS YOU. I SEE HER AS HER OWN PERSON-
Puppet - I know what you meant calm down....- anyways...I- Have to sent you out now.
Jack - Oh....
Puppet - Hey before I send you away...Tell Solar I said hi and hope to see him in his dreams soon. And tell him to get better.
Jack - Mhm....Can...I at least have a hug...?
Puppet - Of course kid...
[ Puppet kneels down as Jack runs over to hug her.]
