Doodle Time 7: Pyramid-happy Bill for @glassbarriers.

i always found it sweet that the family ford has in the end is in defiance of what was suggested to him in journal 3, him neither having a romantic partner nor biological kids or even bothering with the settling down part

+ mcgucket reconnecting with his son and having the chance to live together makes me happy too (fuzz fuzz the racoon is also there i guess)

Something I’ve noticed in the episode’s “Through the looking glass”, “Cedric’s apprentice” and “day of the sorcerer’s” is that when Cedric goes through a red curtain , it’s like it symbolises his fate of going down the dark of path of him trying to take over the kingdom. This will be a bit hard to explain but hopefully you will understand where I’m trying to get at.

In the episode “Through the looking glass” , kid Cordelia accidently spills her hair potion into the smoke serum before she heads out into the ball room.  Kid Cedric then uses the smoke serum on her without knowing what had happened to it.  After seeing the spell go wrong,  he goes through the red curtain to tell his sister about her hair. This is when Cedric’s life started to change and where everyone started to think he wasn’t a good sorcerer because of what he did to Cordelia’s hair- “My life was never the same after that day. Everyone in the kingdom, Cordelia, my father, your father, from that day on they’ve all thought of me as Cedric the bumbler.” quote form Cedric.

If the incident had never happened then Cedric’s life could have been far different and maybe Cedric would have never considered wanting to take over the kingdom ? it’s kind of like this one moment sealed his fate. If Cordelia didn’t mix the potions by accident then maybe this outcome wouldn’t have happened and Cedric wouldn’t have gone down a path to villainy?  

In Cedric’s apprentice during the song “Cedric the Great” where Cedric is singing about becoming King, we see Cedric go down the stair case which has red curtains on the side of the walls.

In “Day of the sorcerer’s” Cedric is conflicted on whether or not he should take over the kingdom.  Him going back and forth through the red curtains kind of symbolises him choosing what path to go down , weather to become King or not.

To me I feel like this red curtain thing is symbolism to how a certain door can lead you to a certain path in life.  When kid Cedric went through the red curtain into the ball room , it’s like he went through a door that made him who he is today because of what happened from the incident.

It’s like the saying “When another door closes, another door opens”. Because of the incident his life changed and he could no longer go back to the life he once had. That door is now shut but the door going down the path to villainy was wide open as his life went on. That door can by symbolised by the red curtain :) Of course now he is starting to get his life back on track thanks to Sofia and he is now going on a better path,  but I just thought this red curtain thing was an interesting visual piece in the show :)
