#squeakers

Drew this for a friend. I don't see this crossover all that often, but I think about it quite a bit. Been trying to draw with more limited palettes lately, so this seemed like some good practice.

I originally wanted to make three other drawings about Meta Knight hanging out with the other members of the Squeaks but I don't have the motivation for it

This is supposed to be a redraw of an old drawing I made with them back in Nov. 2024 (image below)

Happiness is your very own personal purple dinosaur that you stole from your good friend and will never return. All Toys are Jeep Toys. And all toys must have squeakers that Jeeps can chew like gum.

He sure does! When it comes to necessities like chores or meals or even small repairs, everyone on the Squeak Squad airship is expected to pitch in wherever they’re able. The kitchen is largely the domain of resident-gourmand Storo, and, while he will enlist help from Spinni or the older Squeakers on occasion, he really only trusts his captain with full reign of the place when he’s otherwise engaged. (At least he knows to clean up when he’s done. And doesn’t try to steal Storo’s cutlery all the time.)

I wouldn’t call Daroach the best cook on the ship (though he’s not above talking a big game if he wants to impress someone), but he does enjoy the process and knows his way around a kitchen better than folks might expect. He can bake bread from scratch, flip a whole stack of pancakes without burning them (most of the time), and whip up a mean stir fry in a pinch just to name a few - all with the handicap of managing a kitchen full of sticky-fingered rodents scurrying underfoot.

He’s got his ma to thank for that. Learned a whole heck of a lot from that woman in his misspent youth, including all of her recipes. He probably didn’t appreciate it much at the time (mouthy little miscreant that he was), but times were tough back then, and, in a single-parent household, she made damn sure her eldest boy pulled his weight where it was needed, especially when it came to keeping the whole family fed. These days, Daroach understands just how hard his ma worked to keep them afloat all, to ensure her babies would survive the worst of the world had to offer… and he makes sure she always knows just how grateful he is, be it though a long-distance video call or a biannual care package. 🍪 💛✨
