Name: Mr. and Mrs. Thwomp
Debut: Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time
A wholesome Thwomp couple... isn’t that just the sweetest thing? Even angry rock monsters are capable of love!
Though, strictly speaking, Mr. Thwomp (on the left) isn’t an enemy, since he doesn’t really fight you. Unlike his wife, he’s pretty calm and collected... though he’s feeling depressed about Mario & Luigi putting out the fire at the top of the Thwomp Volcano. I mean, can you blame him? They wait for all year for this annual eruption! In the words of Mr. Thwomp, “Volcano with no fire... Not volcano... Just mountain.”
And so, Mrs. Thwomp, in a fit of rage, fights the brothers for upsetting her husband! Despite her being a refined lady, she is still prepared to fight... in the name of love! What’s weird about her, though, is the fact that she’s a round Thwomp, and she’s got hands! Hm... is there some kind of sexual dimorphism going on here?
After beating Mrs. Thwomp, you incite the rage of Mr. Thwomp, ever the romantic! Though, after explaining your situation, he calms down. You were just trying to save “pretty lady”! Male feminist Mr. Thwomp then agrees to help you... though not before calling Mrs. Thwomp “heavy”, and getting smacked into the volcano by his wife. Aww. So lovey dovey.
