The fear behind the manic grin
I know I have a reputation as a feral Vikdecai account (I mean can you blame me?) but all the characters in Lackadaisy are amazing and the main cast all have their own interesting stories playing out
Case in point the musical, poetic and lovably derranged Rocky Rockaby who thanks to the Pilot (for what will hopefully soon become a full series) a new large audience being introduce to
But there is one moment where the feral energetic grinning persona slips and we see the face a of a broken young man in a state of total despair, before mercifully Mitzi decides to lighten the tone
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is key to understanding Rocky and his motivations
After being abandoned by his father and his mothers death from illness Rocky was raised in his early years for a period of time by his aunt Nina along with his cousin Calvin (Freckle)
However, due to some as yet unrevealed tragedy, Rocky was ejected from the Mcmurray house and spent the following years riding the rails
Tumblr media
He stayed in touch with Calvin, writing him letters about his adventures, and as you would expect from a flamboyant personality he exaggerates what a big adventure it was how optimistic he was feeling at this time as he travelled from place to place working various assorted odd jobs between 1921 and 1924
Tumblr media
The Lackadaisy Wicki provides a nice breakdown

But of course the reality is quite different. Having no home, no family and no friends outside what brief and fleeting acquaintances he made on the road took its toll
Tumblr media
But that changed when he found himself joining Zib's band in 1925 which at that point was playing exclusively for the Lackadaisy Speakeasy. For the first time in years he has not only found somewhere seemingly more long term to be but back in the place he thinks of as home
Tumblr media
But even this seemingly positive change does not get to last long. Atlas's death in 1926 throws everything into uncertainty and without its leader and despite Mitzi's best efforts things begin to decline both financially and in terms of manpower.
Those that remain do so for various reasons despite leaving arguably being the smartest option. Rocky does so because he is done with drifting and is determined to hold onto the solid ground he has found no matter what. He makes this desperation clear to Calvin
Tumblr media
Though it should be noted while he wants the Lackadaisy to be saved he wants it done on certain terms. Specifically ones where he is the golden boy that saved the day. He is desperate to ingratiate himself to Mitzi. This is in part due to him having a crush on her, but even this is tied to his perception of her as a "damsel in distress" that he can ride in and rescue, and in the process secure a permanant place for himself
Tumblr media
This is why in both the pilot and the comic he is so devastated when he sees that she is dissapointed with his efforts.
Tumblr media
This is also why in both you can see a barely passive aggresive attitude towards Wick.
Its not just that he is a rival for Mitzi's affection, the friendly wealthy industrialist who clearly has a thing for the beautiful widow threatens to make Rocky and his efforts to be the Knight in shining armour redundant and equally so Rocky himself.
If he invested his money in the Speakeasy he would be the hero and Rocky would just be the clown that tried so hard (risking his life even) but failed, only for some handsome aristocrat to stroll in with his chequebook
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rocky fears being adrift again. Of feeling alone and unwanted again. He is willing to go to extreme lengths to prevent that from happening. To feel wanted, included and loved he will start as many fires and thow as much dynamite and dodge was many bullets as it takes
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lets keep spreading the good word and hopefully our lovable pyromaniac and the rest of the cast will get the long running episodic series they deserve to have their stories told (and of course get more love for the comic)

Be gentle, I’m learning But yeah, got inspired by this here headcanon: https://cyndaqwlw.tumblr.com/post/185283203679/aaaaaand-heres-a-better-look-at-this-rainbow-goth by @cyndaqwlw The result of the chaos emeralds totally assimilating with Sonic’s form, taking over his body completely. To call Sonic even a backseat observer at this point would be generous. Because it’s a ‘perfect’ union though, some marks of Sonic’s original appearance remains, such as the lowered quills and the eye color. If such a fate befell anyone else, a similar thing would likely happen. Brighter red eyes if this was Shadow, for example. A great difference from @cyndaqwlw’s dude is this one can very much emote. The idea is that the emeralds do not exhibit emotions by themselves, but, all in all their response to stimuli in their natural state is limited. They can’t see, they can’t hear, can’t smell… can’t feel, but- when in control of a mortal body the dynamic changes completely. Of course they would never admit to such trivial realities but… the fact is, having an actual body and not just being a collection of stones does give rise to a personality once impossible for them. So… Although their vessel might cry out from somewhere deep within them, there is no hope of them relinquishing the body willingly. (P.S Wanted to do something with them having bracelets made of light or energy but holy hell am I not at that level yet.)
