Every time someone brings up the topic of Varian can't wearing skirts but Hugo can it's so fucking tiring to me
Both characters can be complex in gender
Both characters can wear whatever at any giving time
The clothes don't have gender or sex, they are a form of expression.
You can wear a fucking skirt and not giving a fuck
You can wear pink as a guy and not giving a fuck
If it applies for one character it can apply for the other too
Fiction is fiction but fiction is still expression.
A character is a vessel for you to explore the character and yourself on the way
I'm tired of repressed views in fictional media
I think Varian should call Hugo “Blondie” but kind of unintentionally. It just comes out. He’s so used to hearing Eugene affectionately refer to his beloved partner as Blondie, that when Varian and Hugo become close, he too begins to affectionately refer to Hugo as Blondie.
He’s not intentionally trying to copy Eugene, he doesn’t even realize what he’s doing, until he does it in front of him- and dies of embarrassment. Rapunzel thinks it’s adorable though.
And even if Eugene vehemently hates Hugo at the time, he can’t help but be a little fond of how he rubbed off on Varian.
Kk just keep in mind it may take years to finish and will emotionally scar you (I'll link my Ao3 account when I post stuff for Varigo week this year anyways (I won't do it now cause I don't have much good stuff there))
Team radical goes to the spire and meets Calliope and it's just a contest to see who can out "uhm actually" the other
Counting down the days til Varigo week like it’s a national holiday 🙏
and ignoring the fact that I haven’t finished any of my things for it 😓
I actually never want Disney to make vat7k a reality. The reason I love vat7k so much is because I can treat the characters like my own, do whatever I want with them and the story, and expand on them in ways Disney could probably never. One of the creators of vat7k, Kay, even said that they much prefer the concept being in the hands of the fandom. The vat7k fandom is one of my favourite places, because since there's no canon, everyone can share ideas and art. It's the only fandom I think I've ever been in (not that I've been in many) that truly acts like a community and I love that. I feel like as much as vat7k could save Disney, there's a good chance they'd ruin the story by making the characters one-dimensional or something. For example, mom-friend Nuru or Yong being 'dumb and childish'. I don't know if this makes any sense but yeah these are my opinions
chat I'm cooking 🔥
I'll draw these at some point lmao (probably) but for now just take your best guess
Random idea that's been living in my head rent free and I needed to yap about it even a little: Hugo doesn't have wanted posters. Like at all. Donella made sure to get rid of all of them because dealing with her employee/son being wanted in like a million towns and kingdoms and whatever would just be a hassle. Donella did keep at least one of them, maybe Hugo's very first since he started working for her. So if in one of the trials (maybe the iron trial) Varian finds Hugo's wanted poster in Donella's base... I really wanna figure out what would happen
Anon you traitor. This is peak entertainment
so someone has a gay river full of gay water and i have a strong suspicion they're giving Hugo some of it
Why do you Anons like making my child sick? It’s just more of a mess for me to deal with than anything.
did you guys know there's a YouTube tutorial for how to draw Hugo?!
WE CAN FINALLY DRAW THE INFAMOUS UNDERCUT PEOPLE!!! WE'RE SAVED!!!
Can we talk about Eugene's growth. He started as a selfish thief who feels alienated from everyone and once he decided to do the right thing by saving Rapunzel he still thinks he is an outsider not worthy of compassion.
It was until Arianna, a person he barely personally knew offered him a hand and pulled him to a hug, accepting him despite not knowing a thing about him.
And now Eugene, after unlearning his selfishness and tendency to run from problems, matured knowing he is loved and is willing to take responsibility for the people he loves. And now it is him who gets offer love and compassion to Cass, who feels fearful of being undeserving of it after what she has done.
Eugene used to live thinking he didn't deserve love and compassion, and now he's the one offering love and compassion.
