next: updated refs for the main adult cast (aka, the other core quintet)

- As principal of Jerome Horwitz Elementary, Erica Wang has dedicated her career to making sure every child in her school gets the support they need. Under Erica's leadership, JHES is a much less depressing place, sporting features like an art program, a fully-stocked library, after school tutoring, and an actual full-time school nurse.

- Erica herself also likes to take a hands-on approach with students, taking notice of anyone who seems to be struggling either academically or socially and working together with Bo to figure out the best course of action. While her intentions are definitely in the right place and come from a sense of genuine care, she does have a habit of forgetting to ask the students themselves what they think of her ideas....

- Design note: Erica's design is a fusion of her main kid design and her future "Grace Wain" persona

- Bo Hweemuth is the school's student guidance counselor, which basically means his job is to talk to students and help get them any resources they need, both in and outside of school. Though a lot of students feel intimidated by him at first glance, he's actually a very chill guy who likes to approach students with as much kindness and empathy as he can. He knows what it's like to be treated like a nuisance.

- Besides being co-workers, Bo is actually very good friends with Principal Wang, genuinely enjoying the work they do together to make sure every child at Jerome Horwitz can thrive.... despite any misgivings he might have about her approach. And speaking of co-workers, he's also recently struck up a pretty close friendship with the school librarian....

- In his spare time, he likes to experiment with clay sculpture. His office is decorated with all the little sculptures and figures he's made over the years.

- George Beard and Harold Hutchins are known around school as That One Pair Of Teachers; they're always together and are each other's best friend, even outside of work. To their students, they're some of the funnest teachers they've had at JHES, since they prioritize making their classes into fun, engaging learning environments through creative lesson plans and treating their students like actual people. Especially George, since he teaches the traditionally "boring" subjects of English and Literature.

- George and Harold are also the current co-leads of the school Music and Arts Program, along with music teacher Dressy Killman. Harold mentors in art, while George handles creative writing. They like to joke that they're "professionals in their field," except they're not really joking about that and it's just that everybody thinks that they are because nobody knows anything about them outside of the school.....

- Design note: George and Harold already have canon adult designs, so I just added on a few accessories to distinguish their AU selves from their canon counterparts (George's suspenders, Harold's vest)

- Melvin Sneedly (that's Professor Sneedly to you) is starting his first year as Jerome Horwitz's new science teacher, after a regrettably failed attempt to get his robotics career off the ground. He absolutely does not want to be here, he hates teaching, he hates kids, the sooner he can get out of this terrible place the better.

- He's not exactly helping his case by driving away everyone who tries to connect with him, either. Instead of spending his break times in the staff lounge with everyone else, he's spending them holed away in his classroom, poring over lesson plans, reminders of his broken dreams, and.... other stuff. It's probably not a good idea to keep bringing these personal projects to work with him but then again, his science career did fail for a reason....

- Design note: the main design philosophy here is "hey, what would Melvinborg look like without the robot half.....?"

Is prof. Poopypants cannon to genswap AU? (and if he is, what is his relationship with Mevin?)

Oh my god..... parallel plot where Moxie and Pippy are the sole members of the science club at one of Jerome Horwitz's rival elementary schools.....

She's the only one who doesn't make fun of his name......

#asks #generation swap au #the melvin question is actually super interesting because I *have* thought about a similar scenario #where melvin and the professor's roles are reversed #but uh. i think if i go more into detail i'm going to head into spoiler territory........

HEYYY another ramble here...um.

Just wanted to share this cuz something made me realize while fixing half of my aus and its lore so--

I have been rewatching the episodes as usual right? And for some reason, this one stupid idea came out of my head out of nowhere and I have been asking myself for a moment.

Is there such a thing as a narrator in BOTH aus (Bloody Childhood & TBGDOTGP)? Is there a possibility that the same narrator will be part of the AU?

We gotta keep in mind that both aus ARE connected as a way to represent the storyline or backstory.

Idk whatever we call it nowadays cuz both of them are the SAME AU except the BC is supposed to show the backstory and more information about each character in the past BEFORE the present (when I say present I meant GP au cuz that's where the man himself starts becoming the villain and giving some silly hints)

it feels like an actual show with MORE than 12-13 episodes 😭😭💀💀

I imagine the narrator speaking and saying a few lines like these:

"Meet Benny Krupp and Teddy Murdsly! Benny is the kid on the right with round glasses and a dress shirt. Teddy is the one with a green shirt and chaotic smile."

"Remember that now! They are 4th graders at Jerome Horwitz Elementary School, home of The Sleeping Stars, where you might hear them describe as unquestionably inseparable."

I feel like he would say those if he was part of it. And yes I admit that is the worst and unoriginal football name ever created for this AU. 😭

Not me realizing that I've never shared my previous boy here before but-

Meet my CU OC, Hazzy Windward!

He's a 5th grader at Jerome Horwitz Elementary who just moved into the school!

Hazzy never have an actual close friend growing up since each year his family keeps on moving due to his parent's jobs. Lucky for him, they stayed on Piqua for 2 years, making him able to graduate Elementary on Jerome Horwitz, and it gives him time to make an actual friend who eventually became his best friend!

Hazzy was born with a sensitive condition, he could easily get sick, his skin are sensitive to cold and chill wind, hence why he wears winter fit to school during normal days. (Exceptional for Summer, he'll still wear his long sleeves and long pants tho)

Despite hia condition, his favorite season is Winter, because he just thought snows neat!

Oh, and also, he like some bugs! He's always a curious boy when it comes to something new :]

(Side note, he's one year older than George and Harold, so he sure would have heard about them many times, the monster-of-the-week thing would be a "culture shock" for him for sure)

CU Epilogue AU Prologue and Chapter 1

Prologue

The principal’s office was quiet with a touch of tension. Though today it wasn’t as tense as every day before today, whenever a certain pair of students frequented his office. This was anticipation.

The students in question were sitting in two chairs in front of his desk. A kid with a flat-top and tie, on his left, and a kid with a t-shirt and bad haircut, on his right. Both of them were holding rolled up scrolls of paper each tied with a ribbon.

The whole reason why they went out of their way to visit his office instead of going home like everyone else? Just like every other reason: over a comic book they made.

But this comic was different. Inside it was everything they planned to do in the future.

“So…Echo Hills?”

“Yep, Starting Tomorrow.”

The boys used to live on Vine Street. But Echo Hills was significantly further away. This was something bigger than the principal had imagined. The boys who always pulled pranks in school and were always two nasty thorns in his side weren’t just leaving school, but they were moving out of the neighborhood. It really was the end of an era after all.

With a big sigh, the principal slowly stood up by his desk. “In that case……I’ve got nothing more to say…except ‘Good Luck’.”

The boys pick up their backpacks and head towards the door.

“Well, Mr. Krupp, This is it.”

“We’re finally out of your hair.”

The principal glared

“Just kidding.”

And so the boys stepped out of the office for the final time.

As the boys held up their diplomas like champagne glasses and toasted to their future, Mr. Krupp grabbed his intercom and stepped up onto his desk.

“LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, AT LONG LAST, GEORGE AND HAROLD HAVE GRADUATED!!!”

Chapter 1: Two Years Later

For SOME reason, Mr. Krupp’s clock was broken one morning.

He had just received it from his girlfriend just the other day and had been a perfectly functioning potato clock. Sure there were a few bugs with the alarm and maybe it kept waking him up every seven hours at night, but it nonetheless functioned adequately…until today.

Sadly of all times he needed the alarm to go off, it had to be broken in the morning.

But nonetheless today was another uneventful, yet peaceful day at Jerome Horwitz Elementary…and by “peaceful” he means that it’s perfectly miserable.

Kids fear even making eye contact with him as he walks through the hallways. No one dares to make a wrong move to garner his attention, let alone breathe. The tension was palpable up until he finally entered the secretary’s office. By the time the door closed behind him, all the students let out a collective sigh of relief.

“Morning, Sir,” said Ms. Anthrope, the school secretary.

“Ms. Anthrope.” Mr. Krupp responded before shutting the door to his office behind him.

Meanwhile on the other side of the door, the principal let out a sigh, himself. Being grumpy sure takes its toll. But he was in his own space now.

“Unusually late, Principal?” a young-sounding voice rang out from inside Mr. Krupp’s office.

Mr. Krupp looked around and saw a student standing by the door.

“Oh, Reid.”

She entered the office carrying a carafe of coffee and two empty coffee cups in one hand while the other was in her jacket’s pocket.

“Your coffee as always,” said the sixth grader.

“Oh, uh…good!” Mr. Krupp said as he adjusted his tie.

“And another couple of lists.”

Reid pulled out a couple of sheets of notebook paper.

“Good work,” Mr. Krupp received the lists and read through them. The notebook sheets had names of students whom Reid deemed to have stepped out of line. “I…guess detention’s gonna be a little empty this week.”

“Sadly the quota wasn’t met,” said Reid while she was pouring the coffee. “…so I’ll be sure to be more vigilant next week.”

“Okay, you do that.”

Needless to say, Reid is the school’s tattletale. But she does it so covertly that no one seems to know it was her. The lists she makes are usually turned in on a Thursday, to catch troublemakers off guard. The very few that do know tend to nickname her the “New Sneedly”, after her predecessor, Melvin Sneedly.

In a sense, she out tattled a tattle-tale.

“So why the tardiness, Principal?” Reid pressed.

“No reason,” Krupp replied. “Just overslept.”

“Maybe you should get an alarm clock?”

“I already have one. It’s just…a bit broken. And I’d hate to throw it away.

“I could fix it if you want.”

“It’s a potato clock.”

Reid scoffed. “Did you try to replace the potato?”

“Ehhh…..”

“What?”

“The potato is too unique to throw away. It’s in the shape of a heart.”

“Carved or naturally grown?”

“It still has the skin on.”

“That does sound like a unique potato.” Reid pondered. “I still know a thing or two about electronics. Bring it tomorrow and I’ll fix it during my free period.”

“I’d appreciate it.”

“I’ll be off then.” Reid headed for the door carrying her cup of coffee.

“Hold on.” Barked the principal. “This coffee has too much coffee grinds!”

“Oops!” Reid said sheepishly. “Forgot to tell you that the coffee machine broke and I had to use instant decaf coffee. Bye.”

“What? Hold on! REID!”

As Reid closed the door behind her, Mr Krupp dashed for the door and re-opened it. But Reid was long gone, nowhere to be found.

“How does she do that?” Mr. Krupp asked himself.

“Make good coffee even though it’s instant decaf?” Said Ms. Anthrope.

Mr. Krupp dismissed the secretary’s comment.

……………………………

Krupp returned to his office with paperwork he received in his inbox. There were proposals for arranging field trips, all sorts of bills, payrolls he needed to redo because they bounced, reports of misbehaving students who forgot to do their homework, budget proposals, and various complaints from parents that he threw into the recycle bin.

Later that day, there was a meeting to attend which discussed banning recess, which of course, fell through. Next he was being accosted by the superintendent, whom he was previously scheduled to talk to on the phone during the meeting. Following up was another meeting about next week’s lunch schedule, which Mr. Krupp had difficulty paying attention to since the menu was pretty much the same anyway. Finally, he had to patrol the hallways while the students were on their way out at school.

A busy and stressful day indeed.

Just as he was going into his office to gather his stuff, he felt a presence behind him.

“AAAHHH!”

Krupp turned around to see someone else was in his office. For him, only one person had a habit of appearing out of seemingly nowhere.

“E-Edith!”

“Oh uh…” Stammered Edith, “Sorry about that!”

“No! No, You’re okay! You’re okay!”

Edith had arrived in the office carrying a casserole dish. Once she got a better look at Mr. Krupp, she giggled.

“What?” Asked Krupp.

Edith motioned at her upper lip. Krupp wiped his own and found coffee grains.

“Nice mustache,” chuckled Edith.

Krupp played along. “Thanks, I’m just trying out a new look.” The two of them laughed it off.

Both Mr. Krupp and Edith the Lunch Lady have a rather strange habit of acting awkward every time in school. Of course that’s because they were both dating.

Most people knew Mr. Krupp as “Mean Old Mr. Krupp” for obvious reasons: His scowl, the way he yells at children, the way he keeps delighting in other kids’ misery. Basically he’s generally an unpleasant jerk to just about everyone.

At least, that’s how it was initially, before Edith came along.

She practically came in out of nowhere looking for a job as a cook, but settled for being a Lunch Lady. When she brought in some of the meals she made to Mr. Krupp on the day of her job interview, he actually liked it. Of course her meals were often hit-or-miss, mainly a miss among the students, but her heart was always in the right place.

For a while, the both of them started to take an interest in each other, even though their meetings were often short and awkward. Then one day, Mr. Krupp received a letter from Edith asking him out on a date. That was the first time in a long time that he was ever genuinely happy. Somehow both of them managed to hit it off ever since…..sort of. They try to keep their relationship a secret during school hours, but they’re so bad at it that just about every teacher and staff knows.

There was a brief silence in the room until Edith decided to break the ice.

“Well, I, uh, don’t suppose you remember what today is, do you?” She asked awkwardly trying to hold her casserole dish while brushing some of her hair out of her eyes.

Mr. Krupp tugged at his collar. “Of course! Today’s Thursday.”

Silence…..

“Well…you’re not wrong. But I was thinkin’ of somethin’ else.. A certain event?”

“Oh, that’s right! Our fourth dating anniversary!”

“Wow, it’s been four years?” Edith giggled.

“Of course! Why would I forget?” Laughed Mr. Krupp.

“You always pull the same joke every year.”

“It’s a classic, isn’t it?

“So’s this.” Edith pulled the lid off her casserole dish and revealed an extravagantly decorated sponge cake reading “Happy Fourth Anniversary”.

“We could eat it at your house tonight.”

“Great! But uh….I actually had other plans?”

“What?”

“I got reservations for It’s Amore!”

“Oh….That’s fantastic, Principal Krupp! I love going to that place every year!”

“It’ll be just….” Krupp got a bit pensive. “….just like our first date.”

“Really?”

“I promise! Also that cake can last, right?”

“Of course it will! Are we going tonight?

“Uh…actually it’s gonna be…tomorrow.” He lied. He’s still yet to actually make the reservation.

“Well, that would make sense considering tonight’s a school night.”

“YES! Yes, exactly! Ah, a school night. That’s it.”

“I‘ll look forward to it!” Edith happily kissed Krupp on the cheek before she left the office, “See ya later!”

The door closed. Krupp was then left melancholic.

“Just like our first date, huh?” He said to himself, quietly.

In all honesty, Krupp was reluctant to talk about certain aspects of their first date every time Edith brought it up. She always wanted to remember it, but he didn’t.

He flat-out didn’t remember the majority of the date.

It was four years ago when they first went to It’s Amore!, a fancy Italian restaurant.

He had spaghetti while she had pizza.

He cracked a joke, which was unusual for him, and she actually laughed at it.

Both of them were laughing like a couple of lovebirds. Moments like these were rare for him. Usually when Krupp laughs, it’s often at the expense of children. But this time, it was a genuine happy laugh.

He never had anyone to laugh with before. For once, he actually had fun.

It wasn’t much but that was the part he remembered fondly. As for the rest…not so much.

At the time, he had been experiencing a spontaneous series of blackouts with all of them ending with him waking up soaking wet and some of them with him waking up soaking wet and with his clothes missing. He had an episode that night and ended up half naked in the middle of the street completely surrounded by broken porcelain.

The shock left Krupp in a brief stupor but amidst all of the embarrassment, Edith was giving him the biggest hug he ever had.

For the rest of that year, his blackouts continued along with random monster attacks on the school and even on the city. Each and every time, he woke up soaking wet and half-naked, with the monsters miraculously defeated. And for some reason, his relationship with Edith somehow improved. He didn’t think there was a connection between his relationship and the blackouts.

One day the monster attacks and the blackouts just stopped and over the following three years his relationship began to stagnate. It was still okay, but he never really saw Edith being as happy as she was the first year after their first date.

It was a bar he tried to reach every anniversary but never cleared.

Mr. Krupp went ahead and took his first bite of the sponge cake.

It turned out to be cornbread.

How she managed to mix up the two was beyond him.

It still tasted pretty good.

……………………………………….

“Nope….Too expensive……too big…….”

Swipe. Swipe. Swipe.

That night, Mr. Krupp ended up staying extra late in his office. Date night was tomorrow night and he had nothing to give to Edith. Well, he’s still paying for the restaurant tonight, but judging from Edith’s response earlier, Mr. Krupp figured that this was part of an ongoing pattern.

Romance wasn’t exactly his forte, but he never forgot a single anniversary date thanks to a little diary he kept hidden in his desk.

The First Anniversary date was celebrated one year after he got a lovely note from Edith to go out on a date. When they met that morning, Mr. Krupp made the first move and brought her flowers and offered to take her out to It’s Amore again. They were both hugging alone in the cafeteria for who knows how long.

The Second Anniversary date was around the time a certain pair of troublesome students he’d rather not remember were getting promoted to the 6th grade. This time, Edith gave him a small kawaii avocado cell phone charm that he keeps on his phone at all times while he gave her a box of chocolates…only to discover that she’s mildly allergic to chocolates (She didn’t even know it either). To make up for the mishap, Krupp offered to take her out to It’s Amore again. Edith still gave a big smile, but only Krupp noticed that it wasn’t as big as last year. But hey, that year was memorable, right?

The Third Anniversary was around the time handmade comic books and pranks finally stopped appearing at school. Krupp was so thrilled to finally have Jerome Horwitz back in order at last, that he ended up forgetting about setting up the date altogether. He managed to just barely get reservations on the same day at around 8pm that night and somehow still pleased Edith anyway, but their whole dining experience was on a small table where they couldn’t really order much. It was still memorable to a certain degree.

This year is the Fourth Anniversary and all Krupp got from Edith was just…

“Oh….”

He probably dodged a bullet this year, but he’s certain Edith’s underwhelmed response was a sign that their relationship is about to fall apart.

Something big has to happen and Mr. Krupp was resolved to make it happen.

and now to round out this duology of george and harold dealing with my principal oc's, here's biamile.

joseph wardell high school is probably the best equipped out of the schools the boys went to. its not crumbling at the seams like besser middle, and unlike jerome horwitz it actually has a nurse's office.

the principal is nice, at least. they can count the amount of detentions they get from pranks on only one pair of hands instead of their usual two or more. their detentions are typically issued by the vice principal, on account of being more strict than biamile.

but that's the thing. he's probably a bit too nice. he lets kids go with a slap on the wrist at worst many times, but that also means that he does the same thing to his own staff-- even when students start complaining about certain teachers for being terrible. and the vice principal’s strictness either doesn’t extend to staff or the staff feels secure that biamile would sooner try to reach a compromise that really doesn’t seem like a compromise than any real action.

(and then they learn that the high school’s gotten in hot water a few times, and that connects the dots a bit more.)

at least krupp was actively aware he was being a jerk. jury’s still out as to what’s worse.

they start doing larger scale, retributive pranks once again. a return to form from their old jerome horwitz days. no more hiding unless it was part of the prank itself– then its a bit of psychological warfare against certain teachers– but the pranks themselves are easier to clean. they learn the art of doing things for the long game in a way that doesn’t bore them.

(they see all the senior year pranks 12th graders do right before graduating. they’ve done better in elementary school. they vow to come up with something big when their time comes.)

#mells thinking out loud on her blog again #cueocu #oc: citrus sleeper agent #this one im a bit shaky on but uh Yeah!#biamile’s whole deal school wise is a little less developed at the moment but this is why im writing this and the prev posts out:#to develop them in the context of school and also the larger themes in cu regarding the dynamics between a kid and school staff

The First Fight

Just a few miles away from Jerome Horwitz Elementary, there was a giant, mutated tree heading right towards it, still dripping wet from the radiation. Thankfully Captain Underpants was there before he even reached the school.

"Captain Underpants! Stop it, it's coming right for us!"

"Ooooh, I wish I could, but my back has been aching and I can barely move!" He said from ontop of the school roof, holding his back.

"But! No need to worry! He will be stopped! Just not by me this time."

In an attempt to hit the school, Cornelius swung his tree arm while rapidly approaching the area, when suddenly, we hear someone call out from the right-

"FREEZE!"

This person threw an icebomb at the arm, and when he touched the radiation that was dripping off of it, suddenly the entirety of his arm froze!

"Aha! Good luck trying to destroy anything with that arm!"

Suddenly, we hear someone else call from the left-

"NOW BURN!"

He threw what looked to be an 18th century inkpot at the leaves, but when it cracked on them, they bursted into flames! He began roaring in panic and pain, trying to do anything to these attackers. He stomps his leg, causing the ground to shake.

"Awwwww, is the big scarey tree monster throwing a temper tantrum?? Good. Polar, catch!"

He throws one end of a large and long chain to the other.

"Got it! Make sure to hold on tight, Ink!"

Suddenly, he started racing around the tree, wrapping it in the chain until he was all tied up.

"Phew, done! Ink, Mind doing the honors?"

"Of course! Step back!"

He grabbed the part of the chain that wasn't tied up, and starting spinning. The tree started swinging with the chain aswell, and soon was not even touching the ground.

"Good luck in the mountains! I heard it's a beautiful place!"

He let go of the chain, and the tree proceeded to fly to the mountains in the distance, most likely to never be seen again!

"WOOOOOAH!!"

"That was amazing!!"

"Who are you?"

"The names Polar Painter!" He said, pointing to himself with his gloves thumb.

"And mines Flaming Ink!" He said, taking a bow.

"THANK YOU!!" A large group of kids called out.

"You are all welcome!"

Suddenly, Captain Underpants flew by and scooped the both of them in his arms.

"AHA! I KNEW YOU BOYS COULD DO IT!"

*Giggling* "Of course we could!"

"We are your sidekicks after all!"

"Yes, yes you are!"

Jerome horwitz (not) elementary

(Tetocu teen AU)

Chapter 1: “Sweet Tea”

Week 3 of being in “middle school”, which was actually Jerome horwitz expanded, Jerome horwitz now became a mix of an elementary school and a middle school, why? No idea. George and Harold were just looking around the place for some free time. They didn’t really have free time, their 3rd period teacher just fell asleep and the school had no hall monitors so they decided to sneak out.

“How many times have we walked around the school??” Asked Harold looking at George.

“Hmmmm.....I think about 3 times?” George replied scratching his head.

“And how many minutes left until 3rd period ends?” Asked Harold.

“I think about....wait, why are we doing math? We should be having fun instead of just walking around!” George said stopping.

“Your right!” Harold replied also stopping.

They both ran around the halls trying to find some things to make pranks with.

They searched and searched and found nothing.

“Ughhhh...we looked for two minutes and we haven’t found anything” Harold said annoyed.

“Yeah...and we can’t just go downstairs either to krupps office” Said George “We would have to make a good excuse to be downstairs”

“Maybe we can make up an excuse? We could just...try to find some ideas for an excuse?” Harold said actually thinking.

“Sure why not” George replied smiling.

They once again started roaming the halls trying to think of an excuse.

They searched for about 10 minutes and didn’t find anything.

And just as they were about to give up searching and go back to class they heard some shouting coming from the orchestra room.

They immediately ran to the orchestra room door listened to the conversation.

“YOU ARENT HOLDING THE INSTRUMENT CORRECTLY!!!!” Melvin shouted at Dressy.

“Ummm okay? What do you want me to do about it?” Dressy replied.

“HOLD. IT. CORRECTLY.” Melvin demanded.

“But holding the violin in this position in more comfortable.” Dressy said.

“Oh my god.....why didn’t you pick choir...and why did I pick orchestra...” Melvin grumbled facepalming.

“Because i need to give my voice a rest.” Dressy said calmly.

“AT LEAST HOLD THE INSTRUMENT CORRECTLY” Melvin shouted.

“Nah” dressy said grinning.

“HOLD. THE. INSTRUMENT. CORRECTLY. SWEET TEA.” Melvin shouted.

“......sweet tea? ARE YOU GIVING ME A COUPLE NICKNAME!? AWWWW MELVIN!!!” Dressy said happily.

“WAIT. NO NO NO. THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE AN INSULT!!!!!”Melvin said panicking.

George and Harold got an idea.

“You know what I’m thinking?” George asked.

“Never give dressy a cute nickname?” Harold replied.

“Yes, and we could use sweet tea as an excuse!” George said with a smile.

“How would we do that?” Harold asked raising an eyebrow.

“We can say that we slipped on a puddle of sweet tea and we fell down the stairs in the process! We could say we were badly hurt from the fall, we would be sent to the nurses office, and we could sneak out and roam the halls as we used to in 4th grade!” George replied.

“GENIUS!!” Harold said with sparkles in his eye.

They both giggled before going to sneak into the upstairs cafeteria.

There were no lunch ladies or staff in the cafeteria yet so this was the perfect opportunity to get sweet tea.

The snuck into the place where the food is usually hidden.

They began to search around for the sweet tea.

“Have you found it yet buddy?” George said looking through cartons of milk.

“No but I did find some pudding!” Harold said holding up two cups of chocolate pudding.

“Pudding break?” George asked.

“Sure” Harold replied.

After they ate the pudding they went to go search again.

“FOUND IT!!” George shouted holding a bottle of sweet tea.

“Let’s go put it out now!” Harold said

They went near the stairs and spilled some sweet tea.

As they were about to slip off they realized.

“Wait....are we actually going to get hurt??” Harold asked.

“Possibly. But it’s worth seeing the old school environment again.” George replied.

Then the gulped and purposely slipped on the puddle of sweet tea.

They screamed as they were falling down the stairs.

At last they hit the ground.

“That actually hurt-“ Harold said getting up and rubbing this head.

“Yea...but at least we made it downstairs!” George said.

They were both sent to the nurses office by a nearby staff.

But when the nurse wasn’t looking they snuck out and ran into Krupps office.

“KRUPP!!!” They both yelled.

“OH WE HAVE NEVER BEEN HAPPIER TO SEE YOUR FACE IN PERSON AGAIN!!!” George said.

“HEY!! YOU TWO ARE SUPPOSED TO BE UPSTAIRS..WAIT- miss me??? Are you two okay-“ mr Krupp said in shock seeing both of them in the office without a warning.

“BETTER THAN OKAY. WE CAME HERE TO SEE YOU!!!” Harold said.

They both hugged Krupp.

“...........” Krupp looked shocked before getting his microphone “Nurse Igloo...I think we have two 6th graders who have definitely been dehydrated or have lost their minds, come get them. NOW!!!”

(AN: that’s the end for this chapter! And in case you ask me? Will there be any monsters or captain underpants in this story??? Yes there will, but not at the moment, I still need to create a monster and why they became a monster and what chapter they will appear in. But I hope you enjoyed!!)

Underpanniversary mont September is almost over, so here’s one last headcanon dump for the road

General

The entire book series takes place in a single school year. The following is my vain attempt at cramming everything into that timeframe in a way that makes sense

The football game in Book 1 was the kickoff and happened in early August. The 4-to-6 weeks before the Ring arrived was really just 4 weeks, minimizing the Boys' slave labor and placing Captain's first day on duty in early September (not exactly the 1st but close enough)

Book 6 canonically happens during the cold and flu season (so late autumn), making it the halfway point of the school year and the series. (I just realized that it’s never shown snowing in modern-day Piqua? Maybe it only happened while the Boys were on winter break)

In Book 11, Krupp mentions there’s 7 weeks of school left. Summer break usually starts in mid-to-late May; subtracting 7 weeks from that places Book 11 in early-to-mid April

Book 12 happens in May. The Rid-O-Kid incident and sudden lack of gym teacher forced the school to close for damage control, then hold a half-day to do the yay-you’re-moving-up-a-grade stuff. (And yes, this means Captain Underpants Pizza Party didn’t happen and is merely a wistful fantasy 😔)

Also said school year is 1997-1998 (except for when I bring up any media that came out after that) because this is my post and I make the anachronisms

The Boys

Harold raises Sea Monkeys as snacks for his and George's pets

Speaking of their pets, they are NOT to be put in the same room together. George's are cats, Harold's are fish. Can I make it any more obvious

George had to stay home sick for a whole week once. when he finally came back to school, he walked in with this blasting on this boombox

George's fave computer game is Star Wars: Behind the Magic, Harold's is Insaniquarium (first the browser version, then Deluxe way later), and they both love Backyard Baseball

George's fave Disney film is A Goofy Movie. Harold didn’t have a favorite until middle school when Treasure Planet came out

The boys took Captain to see Hercules in theaters. He declared it the greatest movie of all time, so they bought it on VHS and played it in the treehouse whenever he asked. The boys kept it long after 4th grade and watched it whenever they missed him

They used to think boy bands were weird and girls were weird for liking them... until Heidi got into the Backstreet Boys. Harold caught The Fever from hearing her play their songs in the house, and George caught it from him. Their favorite song is Answer To Our Life

Harold would later joke that him catching The Fever should’ve been his wake-up call lol

The Old!Boys

In college they held a dorm party and made Jungle Juice in a (fully sanitized!!!) toilet so they could flush away the evidence after. And also just for laffs

Their kids go to Stubinville Elementary. It’s farther away and they have to take a bus, but it’s got generally better teachers than Jerome Horwitz. Go Stinkbugs

They wrote a letter to Krupp about what they did to him in 4th grade, but never sent it

Other

The Boys' parents didnt realize their families had blended together for years. It finally hit them when they asked Grandma and Grandpa to synchronize their visits. They were like "....Huh." and then went right back to setting the table

Other things both families do together: bills, carpooling, cooking, movie nights, fishing, picnics, holiday card photos at the mall

The Beards have a record player and a vinyl collection of every funk and R&B hit from 1968 to 1989. They always have one playing as background noise in the mornings and evenings. (The Hutchins like to play MTV instead)

Heidi goes to a preschool halfway across town. Robbie Hoskins (the little boy whose mom never believes him) goes there too

The Boys plan on being Heidi’s bodyguards when she starts kindergarten at Jerome Horwitz. No one’s gonna give her trouble, student or teacher, if they can help it

She can’t get in the Treehouse—not cus the Boys won’t let her, but cus she’s too small to safely climb the ladder 😔 Some day she'll get in there and eat all the hidden junk food, but not yet

I diagnose Melvin with EXTREME Gifted Kid Burnout post-canon lmao. He ends up going to the same community college as the Boys and they finally bury the hatchet there

Switching to paragraphs for this last one:

Long ago, when Krupp first started out as a principal, him and all the staff fell victim to an impossibly elaborate prank. He was excited to write his first detention slip and grilled the whole student body to find the culprit.

After threatening to hold them hostage past the last bell, a dirty blonde boy in 2nd grade came up to him and claimed responsibility. Krupp locked him in the detention room and looked for his parents' number in the school directory, but couldn't find anything under his last name.

Just then, he heard the kid make this noise. He stormed back to the detention room and opened it to yell at him... but the kid had vanished. The only sign he’d been there was his slip on the floor.

Krupp framed it in his office to preserve a milestone in his career, and vowed to crush that kid's spirit the next day.

But he never appeared at the school again.

Apperance

George is a 10 year old boy. He is introduced as being "the kid on the left with the tie and flat top". True to this description, George wears a white collared T-shirt with a red tie and has a crew cut (before Harold gave him a haircut during their final anti-bully prank, he had an afro that was bigger than his body at the time). He also wears shorts and brown shoes. In the animated incarnations, his hair is curlier.

In Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie, his yellow tie has red stripes, his shorts are a bit lighter, and his sneakers are black and white.

In The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants, his tie is completely red and his sneakers are dark blue instead of black.

Personality:

Alignment: Chaotic Lawful + Good

Archetypes: The Hero and The Everyman

Type: ENFP-T, The Campaigner.

George, like his best friend Harold, is a class clown and loves to pull pranks. However, George is more bold than Harold and usually the brains behind their prank ideas. He is the braver of the two, using his lionheart to stand up to injustice. George is ironically a bit more cautious when it comes to fighting monsters. Despite his pranking nature, George's actions are generally targeted towards adult cruelty, such as his teachers and not his fellow students.

His other hobbies are skateboarding, watching TV, and making comic books with Harold, where he writes the comics. He has created comic book characters like Captain Underpants, Super Diaper Baby, Timmy the Talking Toilet, Dog Man, Ook and Gluk, Boxer Boy, Great Granny Girdle, and the Amazing Cow Lady. Despite crediting himself as a good speller, he often misspells words.

He uses his bravery to help protect Harold, even though the later is much stronger in terms of physical strength. He doesn’t stand for injustice and will use his tie to give some no good bad guys a real kick in the pants. He’s also incredibly smart and resourceful, usually the one making plans in the middle of battles.

Fun facts and information:

❤️: George, Alongside Harold, canonically has ADHD and Dyslexia to match the series creator Dav.

❤️: George loves Hippopotamuses. He knows a good chunk about them and usually talks about them to Harold.

❤️: George’s favorite food is Chocolate chip cookies!

❤️: Even though George Beard is a 6th grader in elementary school, in most places 6th graders are in middle school. Meaning he’s a prodigy child And has advanced knowledge compared to other kids in his class.

❤️: In book 6, he actually breaks the fourth wall by yelling at the narrator to stop describing Melvin's booger form so much, as he's making everyone sick with his disgusting imagery.

❤️: He is extremely sensitive to loud sounds. As seen in the movie multiple times where he’s plugged his ears due to loud noises.

❤️: he is also afraid of blood.

Backstory and present:

Like Harold’s, this will have a mix of book lore and show lore. This section also contains spoilers for both the books and show.

Warnings for themes of bullying, brainwashing, mind control, violence and more

Pre-Captain Underpants / Early Life

George Beard was born a quarter of a year after his best friend Harold Hutchins. Described as a "precocious" child, George's mother had already taught him how to read and write, and by kindergarten, scored higher on tests "than most children half his age." In fact, George was so smart for his age his teachers recommended he skip to the third grade, but his parents decided against it, reasoning that George would be overall better off in a classroom with students his age. George's parents, however, came to question that decision, as although it helped George develop adept social skills and was well-liked by his classmates, he was often bored in class due to his higher intellect and sometimes got into mischief, to the dismay of his teachers and parents.

When not riding his skateboard, reading comic books and graphic novels, or watching monster movies, George would often write stories, and had reportedly "filled up" twenty one spiral notebooks full of "marvelously silly adventure stories" he had written, one such being The Fart That Ate Detroit. Most of George's stories would often get him in trouble, due to at least most of them being filled with inappropriate and violent content for his age, despite his classmates enjoying them whenever he read them aloud.

Sometime during or before kindergarten, he and his parents moved from Michigan to Piqua, Ohio, in the hopes of starting a new life. On his first school day there, George's mother wanted George to make a good first impression at school by wearing a tie, which, after a short argument, reluctantly agreed to wear it, stating that "ties are for nerds".

On the way skateboarding to school, George was waiting for the traffic light to change when he saw Mr. Billy Bill, an unfriendly and cold gas station owner, push his new neighbor, Harold Hutchins, towards a few mean-looking sixth-graders, who yank the kid up and steal Harold's lunch money while the gas station owner watched and cruelly told the kid he needed to learn to stick up for himself, apparently humored by the child's lack of advantage against the bullies. George was visibly angered by the hostility and unfairness of the circumstance, as the bullies and Bill were easily bigger and stronger than Harold and outnumbered him 5 - 1.

When the light changed and the bullies had dragged poor Harold away, George walked over and switched the words on the gas station sign from "Free Brake Inspection" to "Free Bra Inspection", attracting the attention of an increasing mob of women, who became angry at the new words on the sign and beat the horrible gas station owner senseless. George parroted the same words Bill had said to the kid.

Finished with Bill, George skateboarded to the school and yelled at the boys to leave Harold alone. When the bullies Kipper Krupp and his gang began to run toward George, he undid his tie and proceeded to whip Kipper and his friends with his tie, scaring them to retreat into a trash bin. With the bullies in the trash bin, George stated firmly to them that if they messed with him or Harold again, they "will get the tie", and snapped his tie in the air again to make his point. Through his tears, Kipper wailed for his uncle Benjamin Krupp, who came over and demanded what was going on. Kipper framed George for bullying him, and took George and Harold (whom Krupp thought was lying about George merely defending himself) into detention.

In detention, the two sat quietly until the kid started to draw. Harold introduced himself as George's neighbor, and lent him papers to write on. George and Harold spent the entirety of the detention (which lasted all day due to Krupp being so busy that day he forgot about the boys) working on their first comic together, The Adventures of Dog Man. On the way out the school, the two came across Kipper and his gang, about to give "killer wedgies" to a couple of kindergartners, but when they saw George, the bullies released the kids and ran away. On the way home, the two talked about each other's interests and decided to start their own comic book company, Tree House Comix Inc.. After greeting his father, introducing him to Harold, making a couple of peanut butter and gummy-worm sandwiches, the boys went straight to George's bedroom and began writing a list of Kipper Krupp's strengths and weaknesses, only having but only needing "kinda dumb" under the weaknesses section.

The next day at school, the boys spent every free moment they had spying on Kipper and his gang, studying his schedule, behavior, and activities. They got his locker number and the type of padlock he used, even going so far as to stay after school, when Kipper had wrestling class. In just a week, George and Harold knew Kipper's schedule better than Kipper himself knew. One day after school, the boys went to a local hardware store and bought a padlock that was the same type as Kipper's, and went across the street to a toy store and bought a Susie Sunshine Friendship Bracelet Kit. That weekend, George and Harold spent most of their time planning and designing pranks to assist them in putting an end to Kipper's bullying. They got a roll of shelf-lining paper from the Beard family's kitchen and pants and dress shoes Harold's father left behind and nailed them to a pair of wooden stilts they had built.

On Monday, George and Harold arrived at school fifteen minutes early to take the friendship bracelet kit and the stilt pants into the boy's lavatory inside a stall, which looked from the outside as if someone was using the toilet. When the rest of the students arrived, George and Harold continued with their day, until the afternoon when they asked to use the restroom, during which they quickly grabbed the stilt pants and used it and the shelf-lining paper to make measurements on and around Kipper's locker. causing him to get embarrassed in front of his friends However, Kipper eventually catches on to the setup and, the next day, him and his gang steal the pizzas that George and Harold bought for the kindergartners as a way to torture them even further.

Infuriated, the two friends come up with another major prank on the bullies in retaliation. First, they fill the four bullies' lockers with shaving cream to pass it off as ectoplasmic ghost juice. While initially this works, Principal Krupp points out that the "ectoplasm" was obviously sprayed through the vents on doors. Enraged and tired of the anonymous pranks, Kipper and his friends begin to torture the kindergarteners for answers, even stealing more pizzas, which George and Harold were actually counting on them to steal, as they ordered them to have double ghost chili peppers (Piqua Pizza Palace's hottest chili peppers) which cause the bullies' tongues to burn up completely, resulting in them getting sent to the nurse's office.

George and Harold eventually create a comic that tells the tale of Wedgie Magee and the signs of his curse, all of which match their pranks. After Kipper and his gang "see" that ghost (George on stilts, wearing a giant pair of pants), they run outside in terror, during a severe thunderstorm and power outage.

On Monday morning, Kipper gives a 5 dollar bill to Donny Shoemeyer and promises to return all the money he stole from him. Elsewhere, Kipper's friends are passing out money to the kindergartners and doing good deeds for them. Kipper and his friends eventually gave back all the money they stole and never picked on anyone ever again.

Elementary school days

As they grew up, they excessively pull numerous pranks on the cruel teachers, many of which are directed at their bitter principal, Mr. Benjamin "Benny" Krupp, putting the two at odds with him. The duo also create comic books about an imaginary superhero named Captain Underpants, who fights crime in a pair of underwear and a cape. They distribute these to their schoolmates through a comic company called Treehouse Comix Inc., located in their treehouse.

George and Harold's pranks come to an apparent end after they're caught tampering with a toilet invention, the Turbo Toilet 2000, made by the school's intelligent and local snitch and intellectual, Melvin Sneedly, on video. Finally having solid proof of the boys' antics, Mr. Krupp excitedly prepares to annihilate their friendship by putting them in separate classes.

To prevent this, George hypnotizes Mr. Krupp with a 3D Hypno Ring he received out of a cereal box. The boys see that Mr. Krupp bears an odd resemblance to Captain Underpants without his toupee and command him to be Captain Underpants. The boys soon learn the severity of their actions when "Captain Underpants" begins causing problems around Piqua. To prevent these issues, the boys take him to their treehouse, where they discover that they can turn Captain Underpants back into Mr. Krupp by splashing water on him and can turn him back into Captain Underpants by snapping their fingers.

Knowing that Mr. Krupp will continue trying to separate them, they decide to settle with Captain Underpants but insist that he be dressed up as Mr. Krupp under the pretense of a "secret identity," to which Captain Underpants agrees. His sudden personality change even manages to attract the attention (and affection) of the school's shy lunch lady, Edith. Just when George and Harold believe that their troubles have ended, Jerome Horwitz Elementary School is visited by an odd, German-accented scientist named Professor Pee-Pee Diarrheastein Poopypants, Esq., or as he calls himself, Professor P (who is pretending to be a nice school teacher). Captain Underpants (disguised as Mr. Krupp) hires him to be the new science teacher, but George and Harold are suspicious of him due to his violent and short-tempered attitude, as well as his resume's content.

Captain Underpants, George and Harold have a plan to make Jerome Horwitz Elementary School fun again. As the first step of their plan, George and Harold made Captain Underpants conduct the 1812 Overture, with whoopee cushions to reboot the school. As the second step, they open the art room. For the third step, Captain Underpants sets up a funfair at the schoolyard, However, Harold and George have to keep watch of Captain Underpants as most of the games involve water. Mr Krupp is snapped into Captain Underpants back and forth as the boys would try to keep track of him due to the shenanigans taking place. As it starts to rain, Captain Underpants is back into an angry Krupp. Mr. Krupp finally separates the boys, which causes their plan to fail due to Professor Poopypants's reign of terror.

Professor Poopypants tries to take over the town with a giant version of the Turbo Toilet 2000, fueled by the school cafeteria's rotten leftovers left out by Edith and uses Melvin's brain to turn the children into glum, humorless zombies. George and Harold are caught by Mr. Krupp but to stop Professor Poopypants, the boys had no choice but to snap Krupp into Captain Underpants once again. Captain Underpants tries to stop the villain, but due to having no actual superpowers, is effortlessly defeated and thrown into the toilet. George and Harold are captured and nearly turned into zombies, but are able to escape after Professor Poopypants mentions the planet Uranus, causing the boys to laugh and damage the Turbo Toilet 2000's computer, restoring the children back to normal. Upon consuming the mutated leftovers, Captain Underpants acquires superpowers and, with George and Harold's help, defeats and shrinks Poopypants. Professor Poopypants easily escapes on a bee while the Turbo Toilet 2000 is sent to the junkyard for scrap.

Meanwhile, George and Harold destroy the Hypno Ring while bidding their final farewell to Captain Underpants in an attempt to permanently change him back to Mr. Krupp. Feeling that Mr. Krupp would be nicer if he had friends, the boys set him and lovesick Edith up on a date, thus making Mr. Krupp have a change of heart. Krupp returns the comics he took away from George and Harold, and even admits their comics are funny. However, the toxic waste from the Turbo Toilet 2000 transforms all the toilets into an army of Talking Toilets which attack the restaurant at which Mr. Krupp and Edith are dining. Mr. Krupp and Edith notice a toilet eating a guest and as Mr. Krupp calls for a waiter to get a check in hopes of leaving, upon snapping his fingers accidentally, Mr. Krupp once again becomes Captain Underpants, carrying George and Harold away to help him fight them, much to Edith's surprise and admiration

Post movie canon and Wacky side adventures

The two friends since then have been on many adventures along side the lovable superhero Captain Underpants. The adventures are already written on Harold’s bio, so head over there to see more wacky adventures!

Adult life and more

I've been in an OC mood these last few days and finally sat down to make some updated refs/bios for my guys. Starting with the disaster quartet because they've been on my mind a lot and I love them

Extra notes on this group as a refresher and for personal reference:

- When they're not engaged in typical college age shenanigans they're dedicating their free time to trying to uncover the secret identity behind Piqua's local superhero, Captain Underpants (it's mostly Anaya's idea honestly). They all meet up in Anaya's garage to share theories, gather clues, and eat the snacks Anaya's mom insists on bringing them.

- They all attended Jerome Horwitz Elementary at the same time as kids, but they never properly met and became friends until they were all in middle school. Anaya and Brea have been friends the longest, having met in kindergarten a few years before Brea's parents switched her to homeschooling.

- They all have distinct designs but I gave them all some kind of outer layer jacket/vest/sweater to tie them all together as a group

- Expect Brea's color palette to be different every time I draw him because I am constantly unsatisfied with it, lol

#j's posts #oc tag #sorry in advance for this formatting the alternatives bugged me aesthetically

CHARACTERS: MASTER POST

Kipper Krupp

While he’s not the bully he was back in Jerome Horwitz, Kipper (21) is still a bit of a grumpy individual. Taking heavily from his uncle, Kipper has a tendency to get aggressive when things don’t go his way. He’s loyal to those he considers his friends, but he can get mad whenever they bug him too much.

During the events of the books, Kipper had gotten into a car crash and had a blood transplant done with his Uncle Benjamin. In the present, he takes an internship at Jerome Horwitz Elementary, finding a box of George and Harold’s old left behind stuff in the school’s basement, and after a night with a 3D Hypno Ring unlocks his latent powers, Kipper discovers he has super strength and durability, flight, and infinite underwear, but said abilities only work when he’s Captain Underpants. One non-exclusive power is a short-term danger sense, and later on he gains mystic powers from Robicus, including a healing factor, portal forming, shields, and laser eyes.

Due to being younger than his uncle, being hypnotized for a shorter amount of time, the lack of use of any water, and the process itself being a complicated ordeal, Kipper does not have the same gimmick as his uncle, and transforms into Captain Underpants simply by taking off his clothes. The rendition of the captain he takes after is based off of the comics George and Harold made alongside Melvin in the 6th grade, who donned a scarf mask and socks to represent character development. Kipper initially starts out as a reluctant hero, egged on by his friends and the people of Piqua, before embracing the role fully as time goes on.

Bugg Usalowzgi

Bugg (22) is Kipper’s best friend, the oldest of the group, and by all means the straight man of the group. Bugg tries his best to keep the group from getting too wild, and overall is the most sane out of anybody there, trusting the others to have his back. Bugg is slightly jaded after his difficult home life and regrets from his time as a bully.

Loogie Tope

Loogie (20) is one of Kipper’s friends and a die hard fan of superhero comics. He’s the youngest out of everybody in the group and arguably the most immature. He’s a bit of a goofball, cracking jokes whenever possible and always trying to look on the bright side of things. Loogie is responsible for the incident that causes Kipper to discover his powers, misusing the Hypno Ring.

Finkstein Noviz

Fink (21) is one of Kipper’s friends, attending college alongside Bugg. He’s generally the most chill of the group, going with the flow. Following the Wedge Magee incident, Fink has become somewhat more reserved than the others, his anxieties mostly hidden under his smile, which have gone mostly unaddressed. Fink makes music in his spare time.

Principal Benjamin Krupp

Kipper has always been closer to his Uncle Benny than his own father, the two once sharing a common bone for cruelty and misery. As Kipper softened up, however, he opened up to his uncle, and Ben did so in return.

Krupp’s cruelty has softened a little, both by George and Harold’s departure and the presence of lunch lady Edith. Through his actions, the once cruel principal has gone from working students like a sweatshop to efficient, effective teachings. Tensions rise, however, when George and Harold execute a prank that drags their 9th grade class into the spare classrooms of the elementary, forcing Krupp to confront his demons or else risk falling back into his toxic behavior.

You-Know-Who receded into Krupp’s mind upon George and Harold’s graduation, practically disappearing. Their return means his return, and this time, he’s taking commando…

Robicus

Not much is known about Robicus, the leader of the aptly named Society of Robes, but following Kipper’s transformation from zero to hero, he takes the waistband warrior under his wing and begins to train him in the power of the mystic arts.
