Basically in terms of physical strength I’d say that Donald, Gus, Abner and Scrooge are at the top end (though Scrooge’s lumbago and age get in the way most of the time- if we’re talking Young Scrooge though, yikes), closely followed by Daisy and Grandma. I see Fethry and Gladstone as being sorta average- Fethry is athletic even though he’s skinny and Gladstone is one of that lucky breed with super fast metabolism, so that combined with occasionally going on a sports event winning bend balances out the laziness :Tb
Any story claiming to be a deconstruction of fairy tales but has nothing to offer except new types of violence, more explicit sex, and a general attitude of “lol happy endings aren’t real” is like. such a cultural waste of time tbh
know what actually is a good deconstruction of a fairy tale? Shrek. It fucks up just about everything in a normal fairy tale and still manages to have a happy ending with a good message and never once has to be ‘gritty’ or ‘dark’. It’s actually really well done.
“The trouble is that we have a bad habit, encouraged by pedants and sophisticates, of considering happiness as something rather stupid. Only pain is intellectual, only evil interesting. This is the treason of the artist; a refusal to admit the banality of evil and the terrible boredom of pain.”
- Ursula LeGuin, ‘The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas’
In dark times such as these, it is absolutely revolutionary to be happy.
@pictures-and-rambles I feel likethis is relevant to the conversation we were having earlier about being tired of gritty realism.
I dunno man I am still waiting on the guys to get back to me with that, the design is finished! I just have to sit tight and wait- it is summer though so there’s a possibility the relevant parties are on holiday :’D we human over here
