The Furious Five - Concept Poster/Synopsis: Viper

In Secrets Of The Furious Five, the younger Tigress sits alone inside one half of the Yin-Yang taijitu (Shifu stands completely outside of it) leaving an unoccupied space on the other end.

Then during the jail scene in Kung Fu Panda 2, Tigress and Po end up on the two sides of the same taijitu, with Po quite literally filling the gap that was there before.

2 is really just the treasure trove for us

"You don't want any part in this, bud."

Do you think Olaf's ever thought about having a sister?

Personally, if I had literally hundreds of brothers, I think a little sister would be a nice change of pace.

Ted and Rebecca could have gone down as one of the best friendships in TV history or one of the best romances in TV history, but they bungled it so much on both fronts that now it won't be remembered as either. #TedLasso.

In hindsight, with me getting obsessively into these franchises when they were both making a comeback at the same time, this was bound to happen sooner or later…

The Furious Five - Concept Poster/Synopsis: Mantis

"After an unexpected message summons Tigress far away from the Valley of Peace, Mantis gladly tags along with the group to put some distance between himself and his abnormally clingy fiancée. But when his decision comes back to bite him in a less gruesome manner than expected, the Five begin to wonder what Mantis is truly afraid of."

Don't want to make my old readers any promises I can't keep, but since it's the New Year, I figured it's as good a time as any to share a little tease for something that I may or may not have in the works...

Happy New Year - 2025!!!!!

I'm aware of the phrase "Potato, potahto".

But has anyone ever actually pronounced it "po-tah-to?" Because I've literally never heard a person say it like that.

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one…

Miscellaneous (non-Starbula) Post-Vol. 3 Headcanons

The Sovereign are so averse to making contact with "lesser beings" that they don't make physical greetings or signs of affection like hugs, handshakes, fist bumps, high fives, etc. Adam has been gradually learning these gestures since moving to Knowhere.

Phyla calls Nebula Mommy/Mama, Quill is Dad and Drax is Papa. All the other adults are Uncles or Aunts, except Rocket (he's Captain).

High Evolutionary considers most of Quill's playlist "not real music", so Rocket makes sure his prison cell is placed near one of the biggest speakers to annoy him whenever they play it.

Adam thinks Star-Lord is actual nobility, and he addresses Quill as Your Lordship.

Kraglin and Cosmo have built a specially made pen for Mantis' Abilisks on Knowhere, so they can stay there when/if she comes home.

Once they have all the buildings repaired (and any other new buildings/facilities they're planning to set up) Nebula wants to go looking around the other planets for more plant life to put on Knowhere so they can make it look nicer and greener. Groot will be her main consultant for picking the best ones.

When Rocket's new Guardians go on their missions, Phyla always likes to take souvenirs from the planets she goes to and bring them back to Knowhere to show Nebula. It's usually just mundane trinkets or even bits of rock or rubble, but she treats every one she collects like a beautiful treasure.

Adam, Phyla and the other rescued experiments don't know or remember when they were born and have no birth records. So they all share a "birthday" on the anniversary of the day they came to Knowhere and became part of the Guardians family.

Nebula's favourite music groups are Generation X and U2, but she hasn't told anyone this.

When Quill eventually comes back to Knowhere, he'll have caught up on all the trends, songs and pop culture changes that happened during his time in space and want to share them with everyone else. Most of them still prefer his 70's/80's stuff, though.
