IT'S NOT THE SAME OLD THING.

Old ass animatic from April of 2025 to start off the year, chat😼😼

I hope everyone understands the vision I had for this, because I was super proud of it but lost the motivation to finish the animatic.

(CW: Slight mention of sexual activity, emotional abuse, messed up familial relationships, etc.)

Ask here! So, being the indecisive little worm I am— I chose both of the options I spoke about I broke this post into two parts, if you just want to see one part you can either just read the part on top or bottom of the photo I put in the middle.)

(Ask here! Here you go guys! Hope you enjoy it <3)

- In a situation like this, I do see this happening- I mean, even with a whole different appearance and disposition there is no hiding that “better than thou” type of personality that clings onto him like a second– Or rather a third skin.

- We don’t know much about what he was like previously. Still, we know enough that as Turbo he wasn’t the best person- Romantically and otherwise, and his type of personality is something you don’t exactly ignore- Being specifically programmed to have all of the attention, that and as he grew mentally, he grew for the worse when all of that attention went to his head.

- Smoke and mirrors can only do so much, especially when he has those flashes of violence when things don't go his way– That malevolent glint in his eye is enough to pull a reader who had come to know him, love him, hate him in a way.

- He thinks he’s so clever, too, believes he has everyone fooled, when the reader doesn’t tell him they know till it’s too late, and he’s a monstrous hybrid bug monster drunk on mania. – Though I do believe he would have moments where he was suspicious of what the reader knew, how painfully ironic.

- Whatever reason the reader may have to conceal the truth from not only the rest of the arcade, but the previous object of their affections, it was probably due to self preservation- I mean, the mere mention of Turbo is used as a negative connotation when someone feels as though they want more than what their games provide them to the point where they game hop, it’s probably for the best that they decide to keep that hidden.

- If a relationship with King Candy occurs and it’s romantic that’d certainly be something interesting, like King Candy bending over backwards to try to not seem as Turbo-y as he usually is when it came to his rule of Sugar Rush, like an act- A game he’s forced to play so he doesn’t go back to hiding like he did for that decade before Sugar Rush was plugged in.

- I’m sure it’s exhausting for both parties. For example, we do see him dropping the sugary-sweet act the second he can. His snark is all-encompassing; it’s a knee-jerk reaction, but instead of a twitch of the muscle, it’s him putting someone down to benefit himself.

- It’s almost sickening, affection that is only partially true at best and totally fake at worst, an emptiness that can never be filled because the cup itself has holes– eroded by lies and manipulation, it can wear on anyone.

- The similarities are almost laughable at points, some of mannerisms as though they were plucked straight from the mind of the reader and planted onto the king, a phrase here, a habit there, it’s almost bittersweet when it’s paired with that facade of his, pet names and terms of endearment concocted with that edge of hostility of the racer they knew all those years ago.

- It'd take a lot of self-fortitude to not just come out of it- Tell him they know about his not-so-secret secret. But then again, being in a relationship with him alone takes a lot out of a person; there’s good, for sure, but not enough to excuse his behavior at times. Though he is more even-tempered than he used to be, he’s still rotten to the core.

- I’m sure there’s moments where he wanted to tell them– Not for their own sake of course, but playing pretend can only be prolonged for so long, spreading him thin- Making his more ‘ugly’ side of him peek out when things don’t go his way, only making him more angry in a way when reader lets him express it without saying anything.

- So when his plan crumbles in front of him, his mask destroyed, reputation ruined, one identity replaced by another more animalistic one, he doesn’t care anymore– And should he? His new body made him feel liberated, powerful, untethered from the expectations of the arcade, the euphoria is intoxicating.

- The initial shock of his transformation replaced with sadistic glee, which he displayed himself like a male peacock when he sees reader in the chaos, the horde of cy-bugs buzzing around in suffocating swarms framing the blood red skies of the once cartoonish landscape his own personal nirvana– Form glitching from his original face to the one he crafted for Sugar Rush, hiding no longer an option even if he tried.

- The attention, the shock, the fear, he feasts upon it ravenously, eyes wide, grin stretched from ear to ear– The reader’s usually dampened emotions from being so used to him and his antics are overshadowed by the instinctual fear–

- When the reader admits to knowing about his lies, having known exactly who he was after maybe the first few interactions they had with him, it tickles him pink, a torrent of emotions is enough to make him cackle at the twisted irony of it all–

- They knew; they fully knew, but didn’t say anything! He doesn’t know if he should take notes or not- The deception is almost deliriously delicious to him, a match made in heaven, or hell to whoever is witnessing this forest fire of a relationship.

- Hoards them like a dragon with a pile of their gold, greed and ambition unbridled one of his grubby clawed hands on some part of them, as though they’d slip away if he lets go– And in a way, that’s the truth- The unblinking eyes of the cy-bugs focusing on them like the next thing on the menu; only to be quickly struck down by the mutated king’s horrible temper.

- The very same temper that helped the reader realize the truth-that Turbo and King Candy were one of the same appearance changed but objective all the same; to not fall into obscurity. To be remembered, whether for the right or the wrong things.

- It’s common knowledge that the bad things in life are more likely to be remembered whether it be someone’s controversies, violence, or tragedies are almost always the things that are in the headlines, and for someone like him–

- He’d do anything to cement himself into history. Ambition leads to greed, and greed leads to pride, the idea of being known as the strongest virus in not only the arcade but beyond that? Oh, he’d do anything to make that be reality, whether or not the reader will be up for it.

A/N: this is my first time writing for them sorry if this kinda ass. I've been really interested in this movie lately. Hopefully I can get my other pieces out too!

King Candy 👑🍬:

❤︎ I feel King candy would mind PDA although more along the relationship he could be more open to it in the future. He wouldn't mind giving a cheeky kiss on your hand or even quick nose boops.

❤︎ Don't get him wrong he is a passionate lover! In private, he would feel more relaxed enough to actually be physically intimate with you. (Kisses, hugs, etc...) The one person he doesn't mind seeing his affections with you is...Sour Bill.

❤︎ One thing he physically likes you to do in private is hold him between your thighs while rubbing playing with his hair. You could probably get away with playing with his crown. This is a big stress reliever for him especially when he's having a bad day

❤︎ Introducing him into more would have to be slow or he might just end up deciding not to ever do it again. I think light shoulder rubbing and hand holding can make him feel more comfortable while actually in the presence of the candy citizens.

Turbo🏎️💨:

❤︎ This guy is massive fan of pda. He loves putting his arms around your shoulders while bragging to his fellow game mates at Tapper's. He doesn't mind kissing you in front of people. I actually think it's become a problem for you. The constant groaning of people in Tapper's just trying to get a root beer. (although, I think this still gives Turbo a sense of valdation)

❤︎ In general, he is just very open about his feeling when it comes to you. He'll always make sure everybody knows your his #1. His affections do get repetitive overtime in public. That's why you enjoy your more quiet, private moments with him.

❤︎ One of the moments you cherish is when you ride in alone in his car with him. Sometimes you'll just cruise around then stop just to enjoy each other. He'll nip at your neck, teasing you into making you smile.

❤︎ You are glad that you're one of the only people to see him in his solitude. He really is a different guy when he isn't wanting to be the center of attention.

I think we all can agree he's very selfish and cruel for doing what he did, taking over and making sure Vanellope is left out.

Maybe at the start he does see all the citizens and racers as fools who are just there to make him racing, HIM winning, even sweeter.

I think what gets me is the TIME he's put into it, the way the racers and citizens aside from Vanellope LOVE AND TRUST HIM.

How they DON'T suspect him.

"King Candy says glitches can't race."

"The rules are there for a reason, Vanellope. To protect us."

A few scenes come to mind where comforts and soothes their fears, other scenes where he pretty fairly could have lost his temper or acted rudely but he's always very gentle with his subjects and underlings.

Of course he's thinking of himself, his facade, but for this thing to work he does ALSO have to think of them and their feelings.

It's in his best interest for them to feel safe and comfortable.

When selfishness and the common good overlap I wonder if that line gets a little blurry.

(There's no reason for him to be acting like this if Sugar Rush is no longer active, nowhere to race, nowhere to WIN. Why not drop the act even in this theoretical example? ((Which becomes cannon in the second movie but w/e))

And looking after them for 15 years, I have to imagine some part of him HAS to care after ACTING like he cares for that long.

Also it's worth mentioning in Turbo time, the crowd had NO FACES

Faceless cheering, hollow celebrations. Going from that to such a vast world of sweet, adoring fans. Supportive and helpful, even though they're misguided.

I think he HAS to care a bit.

“I look forward to seeing you,” said King Candy, “at tonight’s Royal Race Royale!”

BIT BY BIT (BBB) AU Icon!

Hi guys! Now that I've recovered my account here on Tumblr, I've decided that it would be cool if I were to introduce my WIR AU here for anyone interested in reading it! I currently have 11 chapters written out so far, which is in a Google document currently available in the BBB Discord server! Please note that I'm pretty new to Tumblr as I'm mostly active on Discord, and things on this new platform might confuse me at times. But if any other fans of WiR are curious, here's an AU focusing on Turbo trying to reconnect with the Turbotwins (+ Much more coming in the future! The server invite link is here if anybody wants to join. Have a Turbo-tastic day, everyone!)

(I will be sure to post art and concepts here for Tumblr as well)
