Heres yet another thing ive been thinking abt to much

How did shit go down in the Mirror World:

DL1: Dark found Shadow and just kinda followed him around, helping out where he could. After seeing Shadow beat up Umbra (SDDD), he basically just adopted him. (He had a lot of help from Umbra)

Adventure: Dark Mind comes in, and things get depressing

DL2: Swordsman doesn't fight Shadow, instead the Animal Friends do

Super Star/Ultra: Essentially the same as how it went for Kirby, just Marx is a lot shyer and didn't wish to rule over Popstar. Also Dark didn't try to start a revolution, he gave the Halberd to Mirror Daroach

DL3: Dark Mind's influence starts to grow and Dark gets corrupted??? Mind controlled?? I dunno. Anyways Shadow fights Dark instead of Zero (i misspelled Zero like three times btw)

Crystal Shards: Never met Ribbon, instead went on a mission with Dusk (Mirror Bandee) and whatever I decide to call Mirror Adeleine to fix the Dimensional Mirror. Didn't fight 02

Amazing Mirror: No I'm not explaining this one, nothing would be different

Squeak Squad: Mirror Daroach isn't a thief, so SS could literally never happen.

RTDL/DX: Crown (Mirror Magolor) goes to Shadow and Co. asking them to get his crown back from Landia. Landia is trying to revive Dark Mind. They beat up the dragon, get Crown his crown back (lol) and wet cat redemption arc never happens

TD: Raz (Dark Taranza. Raz is a nickname Dark gave him) plants the Dreamstalk with the help of those weird flower people, and gets Shadow and Co. to help him kill Sectonia. Mirror Sectonia was elected to be president of Floralia and became a dictator. Mirror Sec almost achieved her goal of taking over Popstar, getting closer than her reflection. The only reason she didn't was because Kirby killed Sectonia. Raz then became king of Mirror Floralia.

Robobot: Mir Susie finds Shadow after the Ark does its whole thing, saying that she wants to take down the CEO. Shadow agrees to help her, and Dusk and Umbra tag along. Mir Susie tells them that she learned that Dark got mechanized, and that she would help them find him. When they get to the CEO's office, they fight Max, (Mir Haltmann who still lost his memories. But like. Almost all of them. He forgot that he was the CEO before, he forgot he had a daughter etc etc.) who then goes back to working right after. Mir Susie then reveals that she was actually insane the whole time, pulling out a mechanized Dark and sending him to kill them all. After Dark loses, she willing gives up her soul to Star Dream, and that whole thing happens. Mir Daroach pulls up in the Halberd to help and Mir Susie dies

Star Allies: Literally nothing happened for them

Forgotten Land: Essentially the same as it was for Kirby, just that Dark joined the Beast Pack and Shadow fought him at the end instead of Umbra

So i know everyone and their mother is gonna be making a good-bye post like this (if they haven’t already) but SHOOT IMA DO IT TOO (tagged “Long Post” for those on mobile who want to block/scroll by btw, and put under a cut that hopefully works!)

Unlike my fellow mod (hi jackie!) i didn't get into Adventure Time until... a bit later in the game (around 2013?) and only because of her... actually. It was the day after Simon & Marcy aired, and she’d shown me most of the episode right before class (def don't miss High School, but damn do i miss those mornings we had). This was quite awhile after I had stopped watching cartoons and lost a lot of faith in Cartoon Network (CN Real was a dark, dark time, if we’re all being honest) and I had felt a little lost in general about how to feel about cartoons.

Because they’d brought me so much entertainment and joy and just COMFORT over the years. And my Favorite channel had been one that I could no longer stand to watch.

Until that episode. That clip. That little glimmer of hope that a cartoon that I had unfairly judged for it’s “random XD” humor, not realizing that that humor was EXACTLY what i needed at the time. And that it didn't detract from those deeper themes that came along much later.

Fast forward over the next few weeks/months, and she’s telling me more and more about this show, the bits about the plot and her favorite characters. And inevitably, she mentions the hints/but-not-hints about Princess Bubblegum and Marceline. At the time, I was interested in them, but I don’t think I ever fully realized how important even just HEARING about a HINT of a relationship between two same-gender characters would be to me.

One thing led to another, and we joked about making a blog just dedicated to these two. We thought nothing much of it, that maybe we’d get a few followers, and have some fun along the way. (but I might be getting ahead of myself here) In 2014, we finally made this blog, and started reblogging/making fan-content centered around these two. We’re far from being the best bubbline blog on the block, but we’ve learned something every year with this.

2015 had been a big year for LGBT couples in cartoons, and it was certainly a turning point for myself, beginning to come to terms with my own sexuality and beginning to think abt my relationship with my gender identity. It’s still a bit of a process. And it’s terrifying, its thrilling. But I am so damn thankful to these cartoons that allow for a space for these ideas to be explored, and to provide excellent laughs and tears along the way.

And here we are now, 3/4 years later. And we all still have so much learning and growing to do.

But I never quite imagined this couple that I’ve laughed and cried over, getting it’s due and Acknowledgement On-Screen. And in such a wonderfully sweet and romantic way.

These characters help us realize things about ourselves, even when we’re not quite ready to accept those things. And it’s my hope, that with each show and generation after Adventure Time, that writers and artists are allowed to continue exploring these kinds of relationships and themes.

And that they help other kids find a safe and fun space to learn something about themselves and those same characters that they’re going to identify so well with.
