Truly one of my greatest callings in life is making fan art for underappreciated fantasy books I read as a child

95 percent of Charlie Bone’s problems are directly a result of a combination of three things: a) unlike his most obvious literary comparison, Harry Potter, he is not a trouble magnet, trouble doesn’t happen to him, he actively seeks out trouble to get himself into—if he just minded his own business he’d have a (comparatively) normal life and we’d have nothing to read about, b) he is the worst, most feeble liar I have ever had the pleasure to read about, and c) even when he is innocent and has nothing to lie about, when caught in suspicious circumstances, the most incriminating sentence that could possibly be said in that situation falls out of his mouth when confronted by an authority figure. And it’s SO FUNNY

Reblog with your Obscure Fandom™ that includes yourself and like, maybe one other person. If enough of us band together we'll find each other and raise awareness.
Also if it was a bad video game from your childhood that you were impressionable enough to believe had a good and compelling story but that made virtually no cultural impact, I see you.

I am a truther for a lot of things, but my biggest truth is that Dagbert is agender. Why? If Lord Grimwald had no first son, then Lysander could kill him all day every day no problem. He/They Dagbert who doesn't identify as a man or son or boy but actually just doesn't care

Objectively, the funniest part of the first book is when Dr. Bloor, rationally, says they can't be sure Charlie has the case they're after.
And Manfred is just like "Of course Charlie has it. Never mind that we only saw him leave with a normal bookstore shopping bag and not the case itself, and that Julia just received tons of boxes with Dr. Tolly's inventions and it could still be in any one of them, and that Charlie couldn't have had any idea to seek out this random object he had no way of knowing was distantly connected to him. Obviously she gave the super important plot device to a random 10-year-old she literally just met and has no reason to believe she would ever see again, much less would miraculously be both willing and able to help her find her missing niece"
and he's RIGHT

Be more like Paton Yewbeam. Have a crush on a delightful rare and ancient books shop owner. Only leave the house when it’s dark out, wearing sunglasses to avoid an Incident. Lock yourself in your room to mope and study history at the smallest inconvenience. Eat a solid block of cheese (by biting directly into it, no slicing) at one in the morning because you’re hungry and your weird great nephew is getting cryptic warnings from cats (again).

Characters that are autistic (because I am autistic and I say so)
There is so very little autism representation, but there are many more characters that are clearly autistic-coded, be that intentionally or not. I will be giving reasons for why I think these characters are autistic in dedicated posts for each individual character in the future, but for now, this is just a list. If you want to later find those specific posts, you can seach the up under #PuffinsAutismHeadcanons
[I provided pictures for all the characters that have an official visual. For characters where only fanart exists, I have not done this, since I presently do not have art of them I made myself and I don't want to wait til I get permission of artists to use their artwork]
Anne Shirley Cuthbert (specifically from Anne with an E)
Prince Wilhelm (Young Royals)
Jonathan Sims (The Magnus Archives)
Boober Fraggle (Fraggle Rock)
Tancred Torsson (Children of the Red King)
Gabriel Silk (Children of the Red King)
Caleb Widogast (Critical Role Campaign 2)
Enola Holmes (Enola Holmes)
Bruce Wayne (DC Comics)
Damian Wayne (DC Comics)
Jayce Talis (Arcane)
Beth Harmon (The Queen's Gambit)
Lilo Pelekai (Lilo and Stitch)
Gus Porter (The Owl House)
The Doctor (Doctor Who)

Children of the Red King getting three more books than intended makes Manfred’s fate so funny. Like at the end of the fifth and meant to be final book it’s implied that the Flames maul him to death in their leopard forms. But with the continuation, he ended up surviving the leopards and the final battle only to be crushed to death when his great grandfathers wheelchair is pushed down the stairs by the family dog. Like that’s just so much more embarrassing of a death, it’s so funny
#charlie bone#children of the red king#cotrk#pls don’t let this post be how I find out there’s Manfred Bloor stans he deserved it and it was hilarious

As of book 5 Fidelio Gunn is quite possibly my favorite character because as the only unendowed kid in the friend group at school (especially after Olivia finds out that she is endowed), there have been several moments where I’ve been half-expecting him to feel left out or not special—but that never happens. He’s like “yeah yeah your superpowers are cool and all, couldn’t be me, I’ll be over here with my violin, have fun, call if you need me.” And sure, he can’t turn into a bird or call down thunderstorms, but he’s consistently Charlie’s right-hand man because there is no one more willing to help at all times and has never once panicked about anything in his life. This kid’s endowment is his can-do attitude
#although let’s be honest being able to pick up any instrument and play it is an endowment in and of itself#Fidelio Gunn#charlie bone#children of the red king#cotrk

I totally forgot that it the only word we have to go on for how Harold Bloor felt about growing up with Ezekiel was from fucking Grizelda Bone. Grizelda “sure you can kidnap my son if he doesn’t cooperate” Bone. Grizelda “my grandson only matters if he’s got magic powers” Bone.
This bitch has been involved in the attemped/successful “doing away with” of at least five members of her own family and we are just meant to take her word that this little kid was totally happy with believing both his parents were dead and being raised by her and his creepy grandfather? And Bartholomew actually does believe it??
Bart is strong contender for Worst Father in this series I swear to god
#also we know that harold does know his dad is currently alive during the series#but its not clarified whether ezekiel and grizelda let him believe his dad was dead as a kid#or if they told him his dad was actually alive and just wasnt coming back for him#because jesus how fucked up would that be#harold bloor#grizelda bone#cotrk#children of the red king#moss does books#ecdysing

Dagbert having endless surnames but Lord Grimwald only having "Grimwald" implies Dagbert either inherited his many surnames from his mother, or Lord Grimwald also has many surnames but managed to pick one. If they're from his mother, it implies that mermaids all have long names. If they're from his father, then I think it's safe to say that a man who chose the name "Grimwald" is likely to be the idiot who decided to name a baby "Dagbert". In this essay I will
