It's St Paddy's day today and only just recently I realised I've never actually introduced myself to Tumblr (mainly cause I didn't know people did that). So I guess I'm doing that now (months late, but better now than never).
💜My name online is DAREDEV (I'm called DARE mainly). Though my username everywhere else is DAREDEV (ItsDAREDEV), this account is the only place I post on Tumblr.💚
I know I'm about 4 days later, but I've just got some sick rainbow converse in the post and finished a designated drawing.
But, to everyone who sees this, happy pride month from me and my son(s)!
And here are said converse (that I used as reference for 20 year old Ted).
After posting since August last year, it's officially my birthday for the first time since creating my account. I have really had a great time posting on here thus far and I will be keeping it going.
I've never liked fuss over birthdays. But 16 is a big year, so, here's a few captures of my haul and my day. And, as I've decided, the 22nd of May (fittingly Gemini season) will be dedicated to me and my son, Theodore (or me technically based on this account premise).
(And a fitting and deserved shout-out to FNAF and, mostly, Lego Batman, cause I've always loved both of them and the haul reflects it).
So, thank you to everyone who follows me and thank you for all the love of my posts so far! I appreciate it a ton!
I'm returning after not posting for around a month to say my inactivity is caused by my exams at school.
I've now taken both my resits I scheduled to try and bring up my grade from last year. That's including a resit worth 60% OVERALL for my history. So, needless to say I've been stressed out.
It's proven now that even though I'm a parody account dedicated to a little boy character, my actual life is clearly much more stressful than his, unfortunately.
But, it's important to power through for anyone else in this fandom with summer exams to do. It's home stretch now until summer!
Is anyone else in the Kindergarten fandom doing their school exams right now? I know a lot of you are in school still, but I also know a lot of you live in America and maybe your timetable is different. Lemme know so we can vent about stress... together!
Yesterday I had a singing recital. I have already sang this song in a recital before, but I chose it again as I'm doing it as my GCSE music solo piece.
The point is it's a song from a Shakespeare play (Fear No More the Heat O' the Sun). So naturally, my posture is straight and unwavering, the language used is very poetic and, mainly, the accent I use to sing it has to be very pronounced.
But, as you know (or can tell), I'm a parody account for a character I've liked for years who also happens to be English...
So, every time I perform this song, I feel like this.
"Fear no more the heat o' the sun. Nor the furious winter's rages..."
I very often base my view of the way certain characters who haven't interacted canonically on other characters from media.
And in case anyone was wondering, I am a person who has thought about Billy and Ted as a fanon friendship. And 90% based my theory of how they would interact off of Bill and Ted.
Has anyone in this fandom on Tumblr even seen this movie? If you haven't, all you have to do is watch one clip from it (Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure) and you'll get the point.
I've only watched it cause my dad showed it to me. And I literally only realised right as I'm typing this post out that they have the same names (I need to pay better attention to things).
Around a month ago my family and I went to see Blood Brothers live.
I don't think me and Felix are anywhere near old enough to actually watch this play, but apparently it's one of the most culturally significant things to come out of England, so we had to watch it.
I did ask Felix during the intermission if he thinks we would ever have been Mickey and Eddie if this happened to us, he said we don't get along well enough to be them. Funnily enough he didn't change his mind until the end of the play.
We probably wouldn't be interested in the same girl. We probably wouldn't rob or shoot anyone. And we wouldn't shoot each other... probably.
(The play was really good, but the reason my family took us to watch it was because it's the play I'm studying in English class this year. Something about studying a story for a full year makes me like it less, but even though I'm not a massive Blood Brothers fan, it was really great).
I haven't posted in a while and I haven't posted anything for Kindertines (mainly cause I don't really ship anyone in this fandom).
Instead, here's a clip of Ted and Felix I spent this week editing with the audio of one of my favourite DazGames' clips.
(Original post I saw)
After a while of failed attempts to replicate the “Underling Hair”, I’ve got one at least decent attempt. Definitely needs more practice to get it consistent, but it’s a start.
Here’s Ted looking a little balder (and younger) than usual (usually I draw him a lot closer to how I draw an older person cause that's just what my typical art style looks like, but because I was trying a new hairstyle, I tried a new body style also). I like the style, more than I thought I would anyway.
Here's a script I wrote about Ted and his fanon mother (that I created), Kate.
TED AND KATE HUXLEY
*Later that night. TED’s bedroom. A small lamp glows dimly on the bedside table. The muffled sounds of the television downstairs fade into the background. KATE (30s) gently knocks and steps inside. TED (5) is sitting cross-legged on the bed, fiddling with the corner of his blanket.*
KATE (soft, reassuring):
Scoot over, love.
TED (shuffles, smiling faintly):
Didn’t think you’d come up. Thought you’d be arguin’ with Dad.
KATE (sits on the edge of the bed, brushing his hair back):
Ain’t no point arguin’ with him once he’s set. Best to let it cool. But I couldn’t leave you sat here on your own, not with that look on your face.
TED (quietly, after a pause):
Felix doesn’t get it, does he? Always makin’ me out to be silly.
KATE (gentle):
He’s still a boy himself, tryin’ to sound grown. Doesn’t mean he sees clearer than you.
TED (picking at the blanket):
It weren’t just him though… it’s everyone hearing him. Felix teasing me, Cindy makin’ that story, and Penny sittin’ right in the room… it was embarrassing.
KATE (careful, listening):
You and Penny. You care about her a lot, don’t you?
TED (calm, honest):
Well… yeah, cause she’s smart. Smarter than me definitely. And she’s nicer than a lot of other people at our school. But when Felix made the joke, I thought about what everyone else would think. Penny’s my friend, but if she heard it… what if she thinks it’s true? What if she thinks I’m daft, or wrong?
KATE (soft smile, squeezing his hand):
You’re not wrong, Theo. Wanting people to be kind, wanting to be near folk who make you feel safe, that’s not wrong. That’s you knowing what matters.
TED (hesitant):
Dad says I’m too soft.
KATE (shakes her head):
Soft ain’t weak. It means you’ve got room in your heart, and that’s a strength of its own. Your dad just grew up where softness weren’t allowed. He don’t see it the way I do.
TED (eyes down, tense):
Sometimes I wish everyone knew. That I’m just who I am. And I wish Penny knew how much I cared for her. That when I’m talking and laughing with her, she makes me feel… not stupid.
KATE (warm, steady):
Maybe one day she will, love. For now, you just keep bein’ yourself. That’s enough. I see it, I reckon Penny also sees it. You’ll find others who do too.
TED (after a long pause, voice small but brighter):
Do you think Penny would ever… understand that I care a lot for her? Even though she moved classes and I don’t see her much?
KATE (kisses his forehead, gentle but not pressing):
That’s for the future to tell. Right now, just enjoy the dragons ‘n’ silly stories. The rest’ll come when it’s ready.
*TED smiles faintly, leaning into her hand. The weight lifts a little. KATE stays with him, stroking his hair until his eyes grow heavy. The door clicks softly as she leaves, leaving TED safe in the quiet glow of his lamp.*
I’ve been listening to “I Can’t Fix You” on repeat recently and I’ve been likening it so much to Penny. I know none of the characters in Kindergarten have a canon voice, but a Ted cover of this song about Penny would go hard.
Here’s some art of the album cover and official art for the song I did with Penny and the others. I think it goes hard.
2025 has been long, and I’m as tired as ever, both from staying up all night and from whatever other things have made this year feel particularly bad. But now that my partying is over for 2025, on one of the most colloquially recognised celebrations in the year (apparently), Applesoft and I, Ted, hope you had/are having a great night and wish you a Happy New Year.
(And here's a quick message from me. Even though I only post around every four days, I feel pretty tired from my posting schedule this year. I don't even post as much as others do, but making myself post every few days makes it less fun.
So my post frequency may change next year. BUT I will continue posting, I promise I like posting on here, but I'll definitely like it more when I'm not so stressed about it.
Happy New Year, everyone, hope it's a good one, for myself and for all of you, fingers crossed!).
I was in the cinema today and saw the new Zootropolis 2/Zootopia 2 (whatever you call it) movie. And I immediately noticed (like a lot of things in life) how much I can liken these 2 to these 2.
I will not spoil the movie if you haven't seen it yet, but I will say I walked out of the cinema with my family and typed this draft in the bathroom (after drinking an entire large drink myself) because I was immediately thinking about this.
But as a potential point linked to what happens in the movie to make this post relevant (the comparison in events of the movie isn't completely accurate to what happens in Kindergarten, don't worry), I will say that Pawbert (the lynx on the left) was definitely more aware and intentful with his actions than Ted was. He is an adult whilst Ted's a 5 year old boy.
But to end, the movie was really great and I do love Pawbert and Gary.
I've been pushing myself to make a post before Christmas. So in honour of the fact it's Christmas Eve where I live and I've watched the (objectively) best Christmas movie of all time, here's some art I made.
So before Christmas Day, Ted and I would like to wish all of you a Merry Christmas!
"After all, there's only one more sleep 'til Christmas"
Here's another long explanation of something I noticed in Kindergarten 2, it's been a while. I know it's long and pretty dumb, but I get to my real (slightly more serious) question/point at the end, I wanna hear some thoughts on this.
I've been thinking about what Ted does during Cain's Not Able when not seen by the player.
We know that Ted ponders Felix’s plan in morning time following Felix’s request for him to gain intel on Ozzy.
In Cain's Not Able, Ted can be found downstairs, uninteracted with as the player has gone to the smart class. All of the students (except Cindy) in the regular (dumb) class are behind their desks.
If you go to the smart class without beginning Felix’s mission, the room will look the same.
It's only when Felix’s mission is begun and Ozzy has received the letter that Ted is listening to Ozzy and receives his "confirmation" about the reason for Felix’s plan.
When proceeding to the class without starting Felix’s mission, Ted says his usually line about his father's car.
But I've noticed you can't see his hands behind Nugget's head in either mission. I've tried to get a screenshot of both to see if I can find it visually, all to no avail.
(Image 1: Cain's Not Able, Image 2: No mission, as you can see, no visible difference. I think the small black area I managed to catch is actually part of Ted's trousers, so that's not exactly helpful).
Now I'm wondering if Ted still takes the car in Cain's Not Able as a method of avoiding suspicion? When interacting with him in Cain's Not Able, he will only say his altered line about Ozzy's mother's company.
In Ted's mission, Ted does not go to get the car from the toy box, staying at the desk to speak to us. So how much of an initiative does Ted take in Felix’s plan?
Considering both possibilities, either could have some intention behind it. He is downstairs with the purpose of listening for hints Ozzy will leave. But Felix also makes it clear Ted wasn't in on the plan when he says Ozzy will be dropping hints to "encourage Teddy to strike now".
So does Ted attend class expecting Felix to be correct, choosing to leave his toy and normal routine to listen, or does he take it, not expecting anything and not saying he believes Felix could be correct, until he's "proven wrong"?
I'd love to hear some thoughts. I'm clearly not normal about this fandom so any other fans with opinions are always welcome.
I posted my artwork of Ted I made for my wall but I also got a DHMIS poster. And the position of him "falling" (floating in space) reminded me tons of Cain’s Not Able, so here’s my artistic recreation.
It's definitely weird looking, but that's the point of DHMIS, so I'd call it a success.
(And here's the poster on my wall, the angle's weird because I was trying not to get my reflection in it).
I was sent to collect Felix from the smart class this morning. Dr. Danner insisted on making a spectacle of me in front of the class, so he had me attempt to fill out his computer questionnaire. Wanting to prove myself (in some way) I said yes.
And then immediately regretted my decision.
(This is an actual question from my chemistry class this morning. The form isn't from the class though, I spent about 30 minutes trying to figure out how to make a Google form to make this joke).
