@snake-eyes-11 - It’s been a while but Oogie is still grounded btw

Woe to the peasant who would try to defy the monarch. With both hands firm on the head of his cane, Damien’s expression was firm and steadfast... Until it broke into a smirk of his own.
“I cannot, that is true. However... I can tell your wife.”
“ Have you ever come across my friend, the Cheshire Cat? I should very much like to watch the two of you converse. I do think it would be good to record, even.”
I'm giving myself another challenge. I'm watching friends gaming, so I'm not letting myself look at references. Characters are going to be hilariously wrong.
Dracula sat opposite of Oogie, a mirthless half-grin resting on the thin shape of his lips. It didn’t matter who you were, what you were, there was always something or someone bigger and powerful than you -- Dracula learned that the hard way. But, it didn’t stop him from obtaining power and crushing opposition.
“Hmm, if you are the rolling the dice...I wouldn’t pin my hopes.” He glanced down at the snake eyes. The vampire was part in jest and part serious. “Do you leave it all to chance, then?”
With a witch’s hat that was far too big for her small head, the young child wandered the cobbled streets of Halloweentown, the monsters and ghouls no longer paying her any curious mind as they did when she first arrived. Now she had become somewhat of a mascot, the townsfolk thinking she was the cutest witch there ever was. The young Anna though never dared revealed that she wasn’t a witch at all.
Reaching the eerie well that echoed and moaned without a soul crying into it, she dropped a penny into the dark depths and silently made a wish, hoping to one day make falsehood a reality.
Halloween was over! And yet--- “Now-- now, listen here, mister! Shouldn’t you be hibernating until next year?” It was at least three-hundred and forty some days til next Halloween! “Now is not the time to be frightening people!”
Sparkles ✨! BUT WAIT, IS THAT AN UNO REVERSE CARD?! Wilf encouraged me to send this...like he literally came into my room.
Ash. You already know how much I love your writing and your characters, but I will always remind you and others just how much so. You are such a talented writer and your passion for each individual you write shines through every headcanon, drabble, monologue and art piece. To add to that, you are a lovely, kind, supportive person who cares infinitely about her friends and that is such a wonderful thing. The bottom line is, I love you so much and if I have the opportunity to share that, I always will...even when Wilf is bouncing on my bed as I type this. Wilford Motherloving Warfstache, I swear--❤

I was going to hold onto this a little longer, but the announcement for the H.allowe'en Bash in the parks brought this to the forefront of my mind. BECAUSE! I saw your announcement and my brain was like 'That's totally because of Amy'. It's so natural and normal to me because YOU made it natural and normal.
I know it's cliché and an overused statement... But your O.ogie is the main one for me. I see anything in canon or merch, I think of your boy. It's been... Sheesh, it'll be nine years in just under a week since I set up my original Jack indie blog I swear I'm going back to it once I have more time I swear ;A; and got to meet you. I've had a LOT of time to see you grow and develop, and honestly you've gone from strength to strength. Even when you feel you've hit a point of stagnation, you find a workaround and revitalise yourself once you've had a chance to step back and recover.
Not only that, every single character you have is a joy to interact with. They're so varied and interesting. Every dynamic is so unique and I've never once felt like we were repeating ourselves. You've taken O.ogie and developed him in a way that he can interact with waaaay more characters than he might otherwise have, and I love it! Yes, let's swap out the Mayor with another mayor for a while and see what happens! Let's put the S.anta Clause in place and make Wilf be in charge of Ch.ristmas Town! Let's give O.ogie the most annoying imaginary friend possible!
You embody the joy of crossover RP that I think a lot of people have forgotten over the years. It's supposed to be wacky and absolutely unpredictable, yet makes perfect sense when you stop and think about it. And not only that, you're so open, friendly and supportive. Nothing is impossible knowing I have you in my corner, and you'd best know I'm carrying pom-poms and am ready to cheer you on for every single idea and project you have.
I intend for this to continue for a long while yet because I don't know what I'd do without you!!!

"LISTEN. Yer bed is BOUNCY. That's not MY fault. Free real estate, an' I'll go back an' bounce on it again if ya stay up past yer bedtime one more time."
"Oogie? Yeah. He's a good fella. Or, eh, one've them good beetles? Is that th' way they say it over there? Doesn't matter. He's been helpin' me get ta grips with bein' in charge of Christmas. Maaaybe he's also a little disgruntled that I get ta leave an' come back. I keep tellin' him that he needs ta take a vacation with th' wife an' kids, an' I don't think he listens ta me! Amy. Let yer boi have a holiday. A 'not Hallowe'en' holiday. A vacation. Oooh! A spa trip fer him an' Missus Boogie!
An' May! May, my little Cola Cube. She's grown up so fast! Able ta run whole Museums an' make th' coolest show thingies in th' whole city. I'm so proud of her an' her magic. Ya gotta make sure she gets ta have adventures with her friends an' have fun. It's what she deserves!"
Alright little beetle , where did you go? Molly prays they didn’t go very far! A careful eye peers up and down for them- how hard was it to lose a Stag Beetle?? Just when she’s about to call it quits however...Aha! There they were, perfectly perched upon... er- someones back. No, no.. this was fine- she just had to..... carefully reach up, and attempt to pry it off without being noticed! “C’mon,, urhghh.. let go!”
