“As for drugs, it was before my time [as a kid], except for the occasional use of Doris’ period pills.”-Keith Richards, Life (2010)

But Doris had Gladys and my cat knocked off. She killed all my pets when I was a kid. She didn’t like animals; she’d threatened to do it and she did it. I put a note on her bedroom door, with a drawing of a cat, that said “Murderer.” I never forgave her for that.

Doris’s reaction was the usual: “Shut up. Don’t be so soft. It was pissing all over the place.”

Keith Richards, Life.

Hey, thanks for putting up an ask blog! Don't know if tumblr is the best place to put it for social media engagement, but then again Neil Gaiman seems to be enjoying himself so who am I to judge?

I have a whole bunch of questions, and I'm not sure if it'd be annoying to flood your inbox with them, so feel free to pick and choose any of these to reply.

Questions for Dawn: who would you consider to be the animated 'it' girl right now?

What do you think about the recent trend of 'fleshwashing' that Disney has been pushing when it comes to remakes? Is this part of a bias against toons when it comes to casting?

In your opinion, who do you think is the best 'old-school' toon who still actively performs? Questions for Doris: Has toontown managed to avoid the plague of gentrification that hit a lot of other older neighborhoods in LA?

Is there a union for animated actors? If there is, how effective is it in your opinion? Have things gotten better or worse for animated actors over the years?

Did you ever get to know your animator? If not, would you have wanted to know them?

We should probably get a reddit at some point. Everyone on tumblr has been amazing though. We do have an instagram, @dawn_doodle and @dorisdoodle_toon.

There's also a fanmade discord! One we need to check on more after we're done...preparing some new things.

Who do I think is the current it girl of animation? It changes so fast, but my vote right now is POMNI! Who doesn't feel like Pomni like daily? Also, indie!

Check back in a month when my answer may change again!

What do we think of all these live action remakes? I still don't mind them too much, but Avatar on netflix might be unnecessary. I'm starting to wear thin. Doris gave a rambling answer on this before and I don't think her opinion has changed.

Best old School toon still in business? I think we actually have an agreement on this one and that's this 2D Girl boss!

Was Toon town able to avoid any gentrification? Here's Doris with a history lesson:

As some people know, ToonTown was left to the toons, and that was great. We could vote for changes in the town and run it ourselves, but that didn't mean we were separate from California and certain laws. So it was devastating when it was decided that the land we lived on wasn't fully ours and the decision to build a freeway system was still being considered. This was in the 50s and I had already moved out of ToonTown, but I heard about the protests and letters written to Earl Warren.

None of it helped, and in 1956, Eisenhower signed the highway act and a freeway was constructed. So the town wasn't as saved as the movie "Who Frames Roger Rabbit" lets you believe.

Since the toons owned ToonTown, they couldn't just completely destroy it. We were just told to move. So the town is split up into districts. There's one near Disneyland, another a few streets from Universal. Always near studios. They like keeping an eye on their assets. So at least we got to keep the town in some way.

Is there a union for toons? There have been attempts. But in the end were considered intellectual property of the studios. fully owned and by contract from the moment the first line is sketched. A lot of older toons have a little more freedom from those contracts. By older, I'm talking Bugs Bunny and the Peanuts kids. That's starting to get harder though as studios are stating to hold a tighter grip on animation. It's less a creative thought process and more business. Doris says it's colder in a behind closed doors way. I say that cold is starting to leak into the outside. So yeah, no union, especially for newly drawn stars, and well...things aren't exactly getting better.

Did we get to know our creators?

Doris did!

We all do I guess while being drawn. but it's not as personal now. I was kinda made through a committee. So there are artists who really care and I would've wanted to get to know them, but there are also execs, studio owners, managers, all hovering around to check on their investment. And once approved, you are under studio control. It's nice if the artists can stick around at the studio, but most times they're laid off once the creation is done and they need to go work at another place. This goes into that whole colder thing. From what Doris has shown me, it was a little more fun before. Animators and toons would just hang out I guess.

They would even have fun with their voice actors.

Today, studios want big celebrities to give us our voices. So they usually come in to lay down the track and then leave with the paycheck. Not all though, I heard Jack Black like to see the characters he's given a voice too. It just doesn't happen often.

Sorry it took a while to get to your question! We're trying to get a few things going right now so our timing is way off.

Also, a list of questions is always good, keep em coming!

His mum wasn’t perfect – parents never are – and, when Keith was young, they clashed over his love of animals. He was uninterested in adult concerns (“when they’re arguing about the rent and the insurance”), and retreated into his own world. As part of this, he decided to have “a little pal.” His mum was not a fan of pets, but Keith managed to keep a mouse, which he carried in his pocket; and a cat, which he thinks his mum drowned. “It must have been p***ing her off more than I realised. She just said, ‘It’s gone away.’ I did a painting of the cat and wrote MURDERER under it and put it on her door. I called it Gladys. It was a traumatic time.”

(Radio Times Interview, 2016)

#there is so much going on here #the idea of Keith with all of these stray pets #because he just desperately wanted a ‘little pal’#is so sweet (and sad)#the other part…yeah #the rolling stones #keith richards #old married band #young married band #quote #doris richards

The ghost of Doris must be summoned to recount this strange occasion, because I remember little about it.

Doris: We had Keith and Mick down in Beesands in Devon for the weekend one summer when they were sixteen, seventeen. They used to run coaches from Dartford. Keith had his guitar with him. And Mick was bored to tears down there. “No women,” he said. “No women."

Keith Richards, Life.

A ghost of a young man glides down beside Doris in the middle of the Herbology class as Professor Garlick is showing the basics of taking care of a Wiggentree sapling. He doesn't seem to be as interested in how to properly repot the plant but he waits for the practical part of the lesson to begin before whispering to the Gryffindor:

"Did you know that just touching the tree grants you protection from any of the dark creatures lurking about?" he asks excitedly.

The ghost looks like the kind of person who has been holding onto some fun fact for quite a while and now is finally able to let it out, exhaling. Not that a ghost needs to breathe at all but the muscle memory must have persisted even after his demise.

The young man gives Doris a slight bow. "I don't mean to imply that you might not know that, I often see you in Herbology, but isn't it fascinating? My name is Richard, by the way."

Doris turns her head towards the sound. A warm smile spreads on her face, as she curtsies back. Her eyes, full of excitement, stayed on Richard’s face.

“Doris Hecat,” the blue-haired girl answers, but she almost immediately corrects herself. “I am Doris, and it’s lovely to meet you. And yes, my dad has already taught me a lot about it. He adores everything related to potion-making. It’s fascinating though, isn’t it? How useful such small rowan is…”

Doris glances at Professor Garlick once more. Certain that the woman is not saying anything important, the girl turns her body to Richard. At the same time, a loose part of her black bow lays on her shoulder. But she ignores it, just so she could pay all of her attention to his words. “Do you share that interest? Or is that a pure coincidence that you knew about it?
