yk how we got info on the alters' dietary preferences? i liked that. i liked that and I wanted to see more things like that, show the alters' differing tastes and interests please yes please. i already yapped about how they shouldve been able to form their own connections with others but like.. i wanna see more of manitoba being outdoorsy and going on long winded treks through the woods and analysing dirt and rocks and whatever critters are around, or talking about his source (i dont know if indiana jones is canonically called manitoba smith in the td universe but i hope it is) and gushing about shitty movies vito, vito- we know he loves to flirt, loves attention, but adjacent to that- him loving parties! I wanna see him in the dudes cabin bringing in a stereo and booze and soda and having a great time, and in general him being extroverted, bet he'd love hanging on the beach and stuff like skateboarding honestly. I also hc he'd loooove fashion, specifically they overly extravagant elton john outfit esque fashion. wouldve loved to see him in the fashion challenge svetlana's a gymnast and we see trophies in mike's room, god I want her gushing about her achievements and engaging with her athleticism and gymnastic ability outside of just the competition, yknow, showing off her skills to everyone and also I want her allowed to be more feminine- show the girls helping her with makeup and giving her spare outfits to try on, have her express her desires to be more feminine actually chester's a grouchy, grumpy old man but he surely has interests too! maybe when he's out and its not mid challenge he can just be shown doing his own thing or he can gush about his favourite old timey literature and he loves comedy acts so lean into that! and mal. we get his interests are being edgy and apathetic and sadistic but id kill to see him lean even more into emo aesthetic and trends, actually. give him the edgy metal/rock band merch like fuckin 3 days grace (or whatever knockoff name theyd give them) and have him reference creepypasta shit. i mean, slenderman is canon to the td universe. and also ontop of this: alters beefing with eachother but in a petty sense. like confessionals where like svetlana and vito are complaining bc manitoba got them neck deep in swamp gunk Again or manitoba bringing up switching making him lose track of an albino crocodile or chester knocking on the others for making their back even worse, just stuff like that. theyre like a big dysfunctional family but stuck in one guy and it shows in how different they all are from eachother.
