2. I spend a lot of time online, secretly, and am exposed–for the first time–to the fact that it’s weird that I share a room and bed with my dad and am not allowed anywhere else 

3. My dad brings me to a corn field and tells me obama is the anti-christ who’s been sent by god to end the world, as foretold by the bible. I believe this and cry when he’s elected because i don’t want to die 

4. I begin googling and discover that my situation is not great. I begin a careful attempt to ~distance~ myself from my father by sleeping anywhere else through any means possible. Eventually, I’m allowed to sleep in my own room

5. Now that I’ve been exposed to the real world and the fact that I’ve been groomed, I’m not ~obedient~ anymore and my dad Dips(™) to find a new kid. We lose our house and have to move to government housing in a new city 

6. Eventually my parents divorce because of this. My dad moves to a horse ranch. I visit him on the horse ranch, think it’s cool, and invite my friends over for a sleepover. I have my first gay kiss with a girl in a tent. The next day my father tries to ~kill~ me on the horse ranch(™) with a golf cart

7.My dad disappears from the face of the earth. He forgets his phone is connected to the family iMac. We know all about the crimes he is committing. He fakes a heart attack in a Wal-Mart at some point, idk

8. The FBI is onto his life of crime. He flees to Romania to escape them and lives with a millionaire Romanian woman. She’s suspicious of him after a while. She hires a private investigator and unearths his life of lies and crime. He flees to Alaska. He gets a roommate in Alaska. The roommate goes to federal prison. We never hear from my father again. He is, perhaps, dead.

Jaller: That makes sense. A Rahkshi killed me once.

Gresh: What

Gresh: What?

Jaller: He got better too.

Jaller: Though, he was fused to Makuta Teridax at the time.

Gresh: wHaT?!?!

Jaller: It was just a phase. Though he did go full emo goth later.

Gresh:….

No. Just NO.

Yeah that's right I SAID MAKE UP

Everything from the top of their head to the end of their neck

purely intricate, beautiful makeup

(by the very talented make up designer Sheelagh Wells who is the only one to have worked both on doctor who in '63 and new who)

Each shaped individually to each actors face and able to pick up each micro expression we still struggle to produce with cgi to this day without it looking wrong or plastic

everything from the small cheek movements to the eyebrows to the nose crinkle, the actresses is able to act as if she usually would.

By not having to restrain her face to act in one peticular spot or with nothing but small motion capture dots on her face, means she can actually bounce off the more realistic reaction to the other actors performance rather than if they just said "right well pretend she's a cat and we'll add it in later".

and sure, okay, I'm not gonna lie to you, the main reason the nun cats were made to be nuns was because it meant that they could cover up as much skin as they possibly could to save time in the makeup chair, because like op said, they truly did have the budget of a crisp packet

but hey, if it works

IT WORKS

Yes, each actresses sat in the makeup chair getting the extensive hair and make up done for HOURS, but ultimately the sheer amount of detail they were able to add to the characters by doing this made it worth their while.

THEY ONLY HAD A BUDGET OF AROUND £800K PER EPISODE at the time, in 2006 FOR EVERYTHING INCLUDING LOCATION ETC

THEY DID IT MORE TOO GRIDLOCK IS ONE OF MY FAVE EPISODES THANKS TO THIS GUY

Thomas Kincade Brannigan (yes of course he's dressed like that for the same reasons come on)

YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT MICRO EXPRESSIONS LOOK

This whole episode reeks of "we don't have money at all so we will film only tiny tiny interiors". It almost feels like the whole scenario was written BECAUSE OF THIS

Brannigan is also the proud father... Of... A... Litter of actual real life kittens 😐 ok I remember I laughed out loud while watching I loved this.

Anyway this to say OFTEN THE BEST THINGS COME FROM INGENUITY IN FRONT OF LIMITATIONS AND PASSION

NOT FROM MONEY (and rushing your workers to make more money faster 🙃)

Raphee 🎈

Finally done! 😅🎬 This animation really drained me… it took a whole month of non-stop work! 🖌️💪 I hope you all enjoy it! 💖✨🎉

Legend loses his hat.

It's not a super big deal, really It really isn't. Legend totally doesn't care at all about it, obviously. (Except he sort of does. He's always worn a hat, before he was a hero, before he picked up the master sword, before he can even remember).

Uncle Aflon just got into the habit of putting a hat on his head when he was a baby, because the village women always said it was important to keep little ones warm and most of the heat escapes via the head. So, since he was tiny, Aflon always helped his nephew get dressed and then popped a hat on his head. And even after Legend was old enough to do it himself, his Uncle still always tucked a hat on him because Aflon sort of just got accustomed to it and Link grew out of everything else already so he's just keeping this one small thing as long as he can.

So legend literally has gone his whole life wearing a hat and suddenly not is...weird. It's not a big deal, but also, he's oddly uncomfortable, and cold, and there's something missing all the time and it bugs a tiny little part of him.

The rest of the heroes' notice something is off. They push. legend of course tells them that it's nothing, he's maybe just slightly sort of out of sorts. Maybe he doesn't even realize that's what's wrong.

But then, maybe as a joke? Maybe just because, maybe because Legend's being extra grouchy and they just were trying to get him to shut up, someone tosses a spare shirt or a scarf/pelt/cape at his head one evening and it just sort of clicks. Legend's mid-way through saying something and then he gets hit literally and mentally with the realization of what's wrong and just goes oddly quiet.

He doesn't yank the offending article off and throw it back like normal either.

Wind's the one who asks if he's missing having a hat, sort of as a joke. But when Legend just nods, looking totally and completely confused...well

Well! The rest of the chain all have various hats they never cared for, or don't use, and if Legend would like a new one then he has his pick! (Technically, Legend's got plenty of hats from Hytopia, but he doesn't tend to carry them around and besides, he wasn't thinking about it because they're not The Hat).

All this as an excuse for Legend to just...get to wear some different hats. Maybe he does pull out some of his own (The Kolkiri hat is a favorite of mine, he'd be so Snufkin), but there's also a couple others I think would be fun. Twi's silly gilded hat thing from his fancy rupee draining set looks like sort of a crown with a hat attached, and if you go for the Twins Theory then it's sort of ironic. Hyrule has his red one that almost exactly matches Legend's jerkin, and he's only too happy to offer Legend something for once when usually it's the vet lending him a tool or new boots or something of that nature.

But the one with the biggest collection? Wild, obviously make this post TotK if you want the most options.

For fluff, maybe Legend realizes that Ravio's hood is actually like....really comfy? Ad smells like him, and thus like home, and thus he's oddly calmer and more sedate with it.

Crack? He unironically loves the CeCe hat, and Wild gets such a kick out of that that he just begs him to keep it. how he keeps the thing balanced in a fight in anyone's guess but he's slaying

Angst? The Royal Guard's Beret is oddly comfortable and Legend actually really likes wearing it, but whenever he catches his own reflection he gets that lovely little reminder that he is, in fact, from a family of knights, a family that's all gone and who's legacy he's failed to take on like he was supposed to or maybe he realizes he looks like one of the knight Uncle used to hang out with, maybe he used to steal their hats after big functions when he was a kid, when the knights would be all dressed up when they visited and the beret was too big on him then but the captain of the guard would fix it for him anyway with this soft little smile, and the memory of that just makes Legend's chest ache (especially if Wild or Wars keeps adjusting the hat for him now when it slips or smth)
