I forget sometimes you guys have not watched half the shows I have,
you guys would EXPLODE if I tried to explain mort lore.
(from yk dream works's Madagascar?? yeah that guy? little brown lemur? yeah fucked up, almost completely crazed fever dream lore.)
anyway I was thinking about the cinematic parallels with chef and Chris from total drama and how it's literally the same fucking thing that happens in Hannibal mostly.
murderous eccentric loved by many: Chris
manipulates, doesn't care how many he kills because it's exciting: Chris
mutilates and disfigures people for his own enjoyment: Chris
wealthy: Chris
gets sent to jail because he's a fucking murder: Chris
pulls a good guy and turns him evil and is gay for him: Chris
I can go on and on, uh you may be saying
"what the fuck?? that happens in this show??? what's it even rated??"
it's PG, guys.. it's a kids show. total drama is surprisingly dark, it's awesome I suggest it if you like weird shows that are a spoof of survivor.
but my god is the show literally just Chris being fucking murderous and gay for chef the entire time.
Tumblr media
THIS MAN HAS KILLED 78 PEOPLE HE CANNONICALLY WENT TO PRISON FOR IT. CHEF LITERALLY GOT HIM OUT.
(mostly it was the show getting another season, idk how they got him out of jail. 100% it was chef tho)
like they are full on murder husbands, this show is so chaotic and cringe but mostly just "CHRIS WTF" it's fucking great.
literally inlove gay murder husbands, it's fucking crazy how similar it parallels Hannibal (2013) while being older than it.
I love this show it's awesome.

Okay, so I have to talk about All Hail King Julien. Basically it's a show about that lemur guy from Madagascar movies. So like the show follows the king of a lemur society and the whole things is pretty extreme political, religious and social satire.
Insane things in the first episode of All Hail King Julien:
Mort (the weird demon rat) moans when Julien slaps his face
Julien's uncle tries to get him assasinated to make sure that he gets to keep the crown
Said uncle has made lemur-sacrifices to the gods and we can see the skulls
Lemurs get caught by fossas and are explicitly said to have been eaten
Mort seductively shakes his ass and slaps it at said fossas
Julien gets his ass literally eaten
I seriously have to post more about the insane things in the show but yeah.

ok ive never done this befroe and dont even know if these are hot takes but anyways ALSO IM SORRY I SAY LIKE ALOT
i feel like alot of the girl ahkj villains all have something to do w being married if u get me and idk i just dont like it 😭
uncle king julien is literally so funny and nobody talks about it also kjs parents were obviously horribke but i love them like theyre so good in the night creature not realising uncle king julien would not be good as king
KING JULIEN AND CLOVER SHOULD NOT BE SHIPPEDD RAHH❌❌❌
uncle king juliens feet are gorg morts just a hater😒😒
MAURICE LORE IS SO IGNORED LIKE THE FUNNY MADAGASCAR GUY WAS ACTUALLY SUPPOSED TO BE THROWN INTO A VOLCANO AS A BABY FOR LIVING BELLS AND THESE LIVING BELLS TURN OUT TO BE SNAILS HIDING FROM FRNECH PEOPEL AND IVE SEEN LIKE 2 POEPLE TALK ABOUT IT
ok thats it im so bad at unpopular opinions
also idk how to make this anonymous so
Yea ur right about the girls, tbh the way women in the whole franchise are treated just like romance objects for the male characters :/// even clover, although I do think she's treated the best. Still, her arc is concluded with her marrying sage....
UKJ IS MY FAVORITE I WANT HIM BEATEN AND BRUISED, BLEEDING OUT ONTO PAVEMENT!!!!! Him and Zora SHOULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN TOGETHER!!!!!!!! THAT WASN'T A REDEMPTION ARC. He's still evil, he still wants his nephew DEAD. Also he's one of the only characters in the show to use the word "sexy". (This is shameless self promo for my fic<3)
I'm pretty neutral on shipping tbh, I don't really care?? But I definitely don't ship them, they are friends <3
Mort has standards, my husband has never done anything wrong shut up.
MAURICE LORE IS WILD!!!! Idk why he's not more popular??? Only love for Maurice on this blog :]
Also I may have anon asks turned off??? Oops O_o sorry if you get the FBI sent to your house over this. Btw don't apologize about writing a lot, have you seen my posts talking about mort HAHAHAHAH-

hello shark. my biggest hyperfication a few years ago was the (penguins part of the) madagascar series. boy was I excited when netflix made an original show all about the lemurs that was animated like the movies and everything.
boy was it so weird
so I don't know how much you know about the little brown one, mort, he is obsessed with king julien's feet and in all apparences before this show, was just a weird comic relief/heel. He was very dumb and foot obsessed and that was the joke
then came the show All Hail King Julien
Mort is centuries old. Mort sometimes disassociates between personalities or "different Morts" inside his head, one of them being his grandmother who knows secrets to the universe. If Mort drinks coffee, Smart Mort takes over his body and suddenly he speaks with a trans-atlantic acent and knows literally everything. Mort's brain is actually a pocket universe where several deranged Morts lay relatively dormant for most of the show, until the Apoclypse happens and Mort has to go inside his own head to fight them back from clawing their way out into the world. He then has to fight his grandma Mort to the death in this head pocket universe.
An inventor man on the island creates a cloning machine, but it turns out that it is not cloning people, it is bringing in versions of them from alternate dimensions. Morts come out of it. Apparently there is one single dimension that is solely populated by Morts. at this point in the show, they are all referred to as Morts, he may be a lemur but he is his own species now. The Mort dimensions is lead by a Mort who is a Ghangis Kahn parody, Morticus Kahn. He leads every mort in the dimension like they are a hive mind.
So much shit happens in this show like penguins of madagascar was just about silly ninja secret agent penguins doing weird stuff. All Hail King Julien starts off as a funny, raunchy-humored at times show that is both more childish than it's successor, but takes on really weirdly complex themes for a show like this. The first season is like LOL JULIENS DUMBBB LETS DANCE TO EDM ALL DAY YAYYYY and the rest is about how mort is god and death and hell incarnate
I have never seen anyone talk about this and it lives with me forever because What The Hell Was I Watching??? I don't even know if you know anything about Madagascar but I saw you mention the lemurs and this happened.
this show put lemurs in my head
well I watched the Madagascar movies as a kid & I quite enjoyed the penguins (i have been kin assigned kowalski many times in the past). and I have heard whispers of mort’s dark truths. but this is wonderful information to have you are truly feeding my brain on this wonderful night. thank you

Stares at you with big eyes. Caesar + Bonnie ask game. And mort
I love you caesar and bonnie and mort
caesar
Sexuality Headcanon: abrosexual but tends to gravitate more towards afab people (ahhhh something something psychology. we can get into gendeer socialization and how that affects people as adults later)
Gender Headcanon: cis gnc as well
A ship I have with said character: it feels like a disservice to call bonsar a ship when they're more like a star exploding
A BROTP I have with said character: besides bonnie I also think julia. but god I'm not gonna lie, he and kitty would so get along. I see it in my mind's eye
A NOTP I have with said character: also anyone besides bonnie. it's weird to even think about
A random headcanon: also allergic to red 40
General Opinion over said character: I like him honestly he's kind of like a better rr jacques. jacques if he was good.
bonnie
Sexuality Headcanon: they literally have no idea
Gender Headcanon: agender
A ship I have with said character: bonsar. see above
A BROTP I have with said character: courtney is the obvious answer but I'm definitely a max and bonnie truther now. their hater swag.
A NOTP I have with said character: again anyone who's not caesar (except maybe courtney? idk).
A random headcanon: everyone who calls them an ipad baby is unfortunately right. I know their gaming setup is absolutely insane and they never leave their house without a switch or a tablet. has been kicked out of starbucks four times for using the wifi and bathroom without buying anything. they also have a very strong opinion on the fnaf movie
General Opinion over said character: they're so awesome. I'm excited to see more from them this season
mort (from madagascar)
Sexuality Headcanon: canonically doesn't really have one. everything and nothing. ykwim
Gender Headcanon: immortal interdimensional beast
A ship I have with said character: none
A BROTP I have with said character: he's literally a part of the gang. a part of the squad.
A NOTP I have with said character: I guess like... everyone. he's not really a shippable character to me
A random headcanon: this is not so much a headcanon as it is an opinion but he's not a bad guy. like he's a little unhinged at worst, definitely not evil like people make him out to be
General Opinion over said character: I heart him. I used to carry that mort plush around with me everywhere. I miss him

I spent the whole day watching animal fact videos so...here’s what I learned:
1. Dolphins are assholes. As in straight up. They’re the dicks of the sea, especially orcas or killer whales.
Tumblr media
There’s a reason Sonic run from these guys. Dolphins are known to bully other animals like sharks, seals, and even sting rays. Sometimes they don’t even pick on them to eat. They do it just for the fun of it. While it is possible to befriend one, keep in mind they are highly intelligent and while they probably won’t eat you, they can mess with you. It’s even possible they might find you attractive and...
Tumblr media
yeah. Keep in mind, unlike other animals, dolphins mate for pleasure, not just for reproducing.
2. Speaking of weird mating habits, Adelie penguins would fuck just about anything during mating season, and I mean anything. Even the ground.
Tumblr media
They’re Panty Anarchy’s spirit animal. “Standards” is not a word in their dictionary. One time scientists tested a penguin by making putting it against some rock with a weird head on it to see whether or not it will try to mate with it. Not only did the penguin go for it, it did so to completion.
3. 
Tumblr media
Don’t let this song fool ya. In fact narwhals are probably having a worse day than you. Narwhals are shy creatures and very prone to panic attacks, which can lower their heart rate. While they are gentle towards humans, you need to proceed with caution because stressing it out in anyway might send these poor fellas to an early grave.
Tumblr media
Meaning that this scene right here got a bit more traumatizing.
4. Kangaroos fucking hate dogs. This is a result of being hunted down for many years and being fed up with their shit. Sometimes a kangaroo would try to convince an unsuspecting dog to follow it into water only to drown the poor fucker. They do this to humans too, but it is possible for humans to befriend a kangaroo only after it warmed up to us and see that we’re not too bad, but if you have a dog, you might as well throw that idea out the window.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Meaning that sadly a Kangaroo Jack/Clifford crossover is probably never gonna happen. Even if it did it would more than likely result in a traumatizing event that someone as sweet as Emily Elizabeth should never have to go through, even though Clifford would most likely live in the end.
5.Echidna and Platypuses are in the same family.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Makes sense to me.
6. Gorillas are afraid of chameleons. I’m not making that up, along with centipedes, gorillas are honestly terrified of certain lizards for whatever reason, and among their biggest fears are chameleons.
Tumblr media
So literally all Mario had to do in his very first game
Tumblr media
was to hire Espio to show up for like a few seconds.
7. 
Tumblr media
Spongebob might be a hermaphrodite. If he’s not, he’s an extremely rare case as most sea sponges are hermaphrodites meaning that they carry both male and female reproductive organs.
Tumblr media
As he has shown here, they can reproduce by budding, although this is mainly because sea sponges don’t move, but since Spongebob can this might not be his only option.
Tumblr media
I would now like to take this opportunity to remind you that not only was the original idea for Sandy was to be Spongebob’s girlfriend, not just friends, but because of that one episode, they’re technically married. Yeah it was a play, but guy who played the priest was an official one and had no idea it was a play, so... And before anyone says anything sea sponges share DNA with pretty much every other animal on the planet, making them the Mews of the sea. What I’m trying to say is...
Tumblr media
Sandy’s going to enjoy the best of both worlds in bed. You’re welcome for that image.
7. 
Tumblr media
This movie actually gets down a lot of accurate details about animals. Obviously not the penguins because they would die of heat stroke the moment they landed on the island but there are difference species of lemurs on the island of madagascar, including
Tumblr media
rat lemurs, which are not only the smallest land mammals on the planet, but they also have some of the smallest brains, making them as smart as a toddler even in adulthood, which would explain Mort’s personality even though he’s like 50,
Tumblr media
aye aye lemurs, which fun fact are known for having really long middle fingers so Julien will definitely know when Maurice is 100% sick of his shit
Tumblr media
and of course ring tail lemurs. Some of you may know another rather famous ring tailed lemur who sadly lost his life a few years ago.
Tumblr media
I’m of course talking about Zoboomafoo, the star of the classic kids nature show with the same name. R I P to a real one. But here’s a detail that Madagascar actually got wrong about ring tailed lemurs.
Tumblr media
To put it simply, King Julien...should’ve been a woman. Lemurs, including ring tails operate on a female dominate society. I don’t know what’s scarier, the thought of this guy having tits or the fact that this actually one of the few details the movie gets wrong.
Tumblr media
Yeah even the fossa they got right. They are real animals on they island, hunt lemurs, and are on the top of the food chain, meaning that if someone were to drop off a lion there, they would be in serious trouble. Keep in mind that in the first movie, Alex gave into is natural instincts for a while, which is especially bad news for fossa. Why?
Tumblr media
Fossa are related to hyenas and lions naturally hate hyenas more than anything. Literally their only hope was if Gloria managed to knock him out.
8. 
Tumblr media
Speaking of Madagascar, you remember Marlene from the TV show, right? Yeah consider her lucky. When it comes to mating, sea otters are among one of the most aggressive creatures on the planet. The males not only completely wreck the females...in a bad way, but females usually get gangbanged against their will. Be glad she doesn’t have any roommates...except for that one episode, but that wasn’t an otter.
9. If anyone tells you homosexuality isn’t natural, just point them to a koala bear.
Tumblr media
These fuckers are quite notorious when it comes to woman on woman action. This is because, like with sea otters, the males are pretty aggressive when it comes to mating, so instead of dealing with that, the koala would just reject the male and do it with females.
Tumblr media
Koalas would even have lesbian orgies with each other. Despite this, they have to reproduce, so every so often a guy does get lucky, but after that, it’s back to the women. Oh and koalas aren’t the only ones.
Tumblr media
Some male lions would have sex with other males because the females are much more aggressive in bed. After all, lionesses can demand sex with their partners up to 40 times a day and if the male doesn’t compensate, the female would start biting the balls.
Tumblr media
Someone better warn Killia before he decides to seal the deal with Lieze.
Tumblr media
It’d be like getting it on with Haru. It may seem nice and sweet, but once you go under the bedsheets, you’d better be ready for a world of pain.
10.
Tumblr media
You remember this scene in the Jungle Book, right? Mowgli befriending Hathi’s son? A little cute moment for the audience, right? Welp, prepare to cry.
Tumblr media
Elephants are among the most intelligent animals known to man alongside crows and dolphins. They’re capable of tricking rhinos to stop their charge by throwing objects in their way in order to confuse them and even understand the concept of having a reflection, which is something even dogs and cats have trouble with.
Tumblr media
They’re also emotional creatures, capable of forming actual bonds with other animals, including humans and are aware of the concept of death, meaning that once a friend pass away, they’ll mourn their loss and even hold funerals.
Tumblr media
There’s one case where elephants befriended a man named Lawrence Anthony after he protected them from poachers. Lawrence sadly passed away back in early March of 2012. Somehow, despite not being around for it, the elephants managed to find out about his passing and they marched their way to his home much to the surprise of his family. They all gathered there to hold a funeral to their fallen friend. Not only that but since then, every year on the same exact day that he died, the elephants would come back, sometimes in even greater numbers in order to have a memorial service. As touching as that is, why am I pointing this out? Well the average life span of an African rainforest elephant is 70 years.
Tumblr media
Meaning that there’s a chance this guy right here would not only outlive Mowgli if life did him dirty, but he would also be among the first to find out about it and show up for the funeral.
Tumblr media
And you think the fact that Shere Kahn dies like Mufasa in the original story was dark.))

King Julien?
THIS IS SO LONG RIP
King Julien my beloved…….
Also sorry this took me so long omgggg
* favorite thing about them
everything <3
okay, so this comes as no surprise to literally anyone who’s heard me talk about kj but his big heart. i absolutely adore that so much of his story is about how his big heart fumbling around saves the day, even when the story is about his own hubris. Whether it was intentional or not ahkj ended up being a powerful story about a kind-hearted party animal with an inherited legacy of violence and mistreatment heal from his own trauma with the love for his people. yes! it was messy and it is a kids show so it had a lot of continuity issues and like…. toilet humour, but underneath it was so tender. kj’s story of wanting to be king for perks, to feeling like he didn’t deserve to be the one true king but managing to unite the entirety of the kingdoms Madagascar under his love as a symbol was so…….. kj’s big heart saves the day <3
even in the movies, where he is classist and bigheaded he still manages to do it? melman is brave because of kj’s empathy for a talking head, and the circus goes back to the Central Park zoo to help the zoosters bc of kj’s love. his line about “it doesn’t matter what you smell like, or what i smell like, it matters what we smell like together.” is what prompts everyone to forgive the lies.
* least favorite thing about them
nothing he’s perfect <3
I don’t know how to feel about season 5 after exiled. I know it must have been hard trying to tie everything up, going back to the joke based continuity and toilet humour after the emotional sucker punch of exiled. it just. feels like it rehashes old plots but makes them more complex and I think if it hadn’t been after exiled I wouldn’t feel so…. Unsure. kj in this, starts off desperately trying to prove himself as king (again) for good reason, but then seems to lose himself in petty ways he out grow and serious things reveled through jokes get left behind to make more jokes and it just feels…… kj grew into being a good leader and i wish it wasn’t forgotten again. This isn’t rlly about him, more the writing, and the plot problem - episodic vs long form story telling is a hard one, but it’s what I dislike. Let kj have growth bc he was given some and it’s hard to see it’s gone when we know it’s possible.
* favorite line
Oh this is hard :/
I like whenever he does his little pep talks. Or when he says he loves his kingdom. Those are fun & nonsensical and yet, an encapsulation of why he’s such a good ruler. he does understand his people, in a way the juliens before him didn’t, because he was never supposed to be one of them, and left to his own devices with his big sensitive heart made a connection that would outlast even the cruelest of julien kings. julien wants to be loved so badly, and he makes a mess of it, but he holds together the cracks of the lemurs before him, hurt by others the way he was and together they build something worthwhile.
“think of it as me sandwich, stuffed with me.
Pretty good right?” Bc that’s one of the funniest scenes
* brOTP
royal quartet <3
kj and literally everyone. i love him being friends and loving towards just about everyone
* OTP
hmmmmmmmmm
kj x his kingdom as a wholistic statement <3 i think married to his kingdom is what’s most satisfying for me. Kj who makes the specific choice to focus on his kingdom instead of personal goals - and despite loving children so much, making the specific choice to end the julien line (it’s reign of terror) with him. Ahhhhhhhh that would be so satisfying narratively.
also, not to bring this up again but i do think it would be beneficial to both their characters of like kj and ted had a idk passionate summer fling and are now each other’s wingmen post divorce. i say again but i barely think I’ve hinted at it so you know, whatever. i just think their dynamic is SO interesting, and the one scene in exiled where Ted saves everyone is just……. ah, perfect. I wish we got a deeper exploration of Ted & Dorothy, and Ted & his rejection by julien at lemur school & losing prom king & his obsessed with being needed/wanted.
I have no issues with any of the pairings that happened lmao, but obv most of them are exes and i think they’re fun that way. Karen, rob, crimson, karl probably, idk, i guess skipper? i don’t think they date bc skipper is homophobic <3
* nOTP
There’s just way too much family symbolism & literally having clover and Maurice ACTUALLY taking his parents place for me to be anything but squicked by kj/either of them/both of them. no shade to anyone who does, but it just makes me feel :////// I also just love their dynamic as friends, and whilst exploring toxicity in relationships can be interesting, i rlly think that if the three of them became more dependent on each other it would just stunt them all. they do better as a unit in relation to everyone in the kingdom.
I didn’t include mort in the family part even tho he pretends to be kj’s son once but he’s included in that. people who say royal trio over royal quartet break my heart, mort is equally important in this dynamic and also. notp thanks
aslo don’t care for pancho :/ sorry pancho lovers <3 it’s just i don’t think he’s half as important as anyone makes him out to be and i don’t think he and kj rlly have that much chemistry, especially not compared to like his interactions with pretty much every single adult lemur. it’s whatever! ppl have fun with it, i just personally don’t see why you’d pick it over literally any of the other side but main-ish characters. i actually think, if anything, kj is more dismissive towards pancho than a lot of characters, especially considering he’s so flirty. and no amount of the Manchurian candidate can make up for that, especially when it was about family again.
ok now that I’ve alienated like 98% of the ahkj fandom it’s okay it’s not like super notp it’s just i don’t care for it <3
* random headcanon
kj starts watching todd’s unboxing videos one day when he’s relaxing, after he’s calmed down about the captain booty butt toy being stolen, like 3am channel surfing and like gets rlly into the concept bc like surprise toys out of box is peak adhd excitement. he wants to start his own channel and in his excitement gets everyone to watch his stuff which doesn’t have the care or knowledge (bc the excitement for kj is the surprise - can relate) that Todd’s has and Todd’s show gets canceled. he’s obv pretty sad bc that was Todd’s only hobby outside of doing what his mum makes him do & he gets rlly upset. eventually, somehow, kj stumbles upon Todd being sad and they have a convo and kj realises that he stole Todd’s hobby & that actually, the hovering, full attention of Tammy is suffocating and not something kj should long for. I rlly want Todd & kj to have an end to their “rivalry”. They make up, kj retires his unboxing channel and promos Todd’s, Todd gets to hang out in the plane as a friend to get away from his family for a while, kj learns the value of space.
* unpopular opinion
again… are there unpopular kj opinions???
i just think he should have had the proper number of rings on his tail. when i look at it I’m like, sir please give him the correct number it hurts me to see like 7 of each colour and i think it ends in a white tip which >:/ which is a silly thing to find annoying

Ok are we not going to talk about this?
You know the Madagascar franchise, right? Memed to hell and back, especially the Penguins of Madagascar show. But nobody talks about the other one.
All Hail King Julien, a fucking 6 season show that aired on Netflix that is pretty much the prequel to the entire fucking series from 2014 to 2017.
So in the series, King Julien's uncle hears that he's gonna be eaten by fossa so he just dips and crowns King Julien the king, hires Maurice and another lemur named Clover. They also explain the Sky Gods that Julien talks about. Yeah, they're all talking fruit.
Tumblr media
And Julien finds this out by dying. MULTIPLE TIMES. He canonically dies like a handful of times and gets to talk to talking fruit gods on a white bench for a few minutes.
There's also like this brainwashed toddler lemur and his karen mom, and he's literally a demon. Like, king of yellow type shit. His mom literally instructs him to bite one of the main cast's jugular at some point.
Tumblr media
Keep in mind this is a kid's show. It has toilet humor galore, almost Cocomelon levels of mind-melting nonsense but at the same time has political and social satire and fucking TWIN PEAKS REFERENCES, and alludes to King Julien potentially the product of inc*st.
Tumblr media
Oh, also according to the show, Mort is a multi-dimensional being that transcends multiple dimensions with clones of himself that he can reabsorb at will and he has 12 ex-wives, 10 of which being dead, was probably a murderous pirate that has a headcount somewhere in the 100s, has a hobby of collecting peoples' hair and making them into wigs, can regenerate limbs like a seastar and has potential bear and spider DNA.
This series has so much insane shit that it's spawned an entire theory/series summary that clocks up to almost THREE ENTIRE HOURS. The theory can be found here and the entire series on Netflix.

oh hey how's everyone's day– *a huge, 6ft tall Mort from madagascar thunders up to me, gesturing its hands and looking about in clear distress. a strange garbled voice comes from the being, and all I can make out is "help......king julien......find..king jul......" of course, I am no fool and am well aware of the World-Shattering Julien Disappearance of 2014. figuring that this mort must be a long-time julien mourner still not over the tragedy, I can't help but feel sympathetic and decide to make an attempt to comfort it. I poke the giant's chest, "he's in here," I tell it. "king julien is here in your hear–" I'm cut off by the sound of rushing air. looking up, I find the mort's face quite literally crumpling. I remove my pointed finger as I realize that the mort wasn't real, but rather.....inflatable?? I stumble away in shock. the voice comes back, clearer this time, asking me to cut the costume's material away. I obey, and after removing the synthetic mort skin I find none other than a disheveled yet relieved king julien, sitting in what looks like a command chair surrounded by the controls for the oversized costume. "thank you," he tells me. "you helped king julien find his way out!" I've saved King Julien from a seven-year entrapment inside a giant, partly robotic inflatable mort. the entire world rejoices his return. I am awarded a nobel prize*

Fanfic writer's director's commentary! Thanks to @candycoloredwolf for the ask! I chose to talk about my first panchulien oneshot 'Wanna Dance?'. I wrote it in a single night on impulse so there's a few grammar mistakes and other stuff I noticed upon revisiting it.
I probably went way overboard on my commentary (oops) but it was so much fun going through it all. I hope this is entertaining.
.............
*the crocodile ambassador gave him an unusually soft smile.*
After everything that's happened in the show, I feel like the croc ambassador would have warmed up to Julien quite a bit and come to respect him as a leader. Also he's trying to butter Julien up before complaining about one of his subjects.
*provided they were on their best behaviour. It had said on the invitation that it was a 'sophisticated' event, so Maurice had managed to wrangle all of the lemurs into formal wear, and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves, dancing in pairs to the soft music*
Man, I just love it when characters dress up in fancy outfits and go dancing together (like in the prom episode). One of my favourite tropes in fact, so I just had to throw it in there!
*but still all this fancy partnered dancing wasn't entirely to the ringtail's taste.*
As much as I like the formal dancing stuff, it wouldn't be something Julien would enjoy, so he's already looking for an excuse to bounce and throw his own afterparty. He's only stayed so far to try and be polite and improve relations between their kingdoms or something else that Maurice told him to do.
*Clover, Sage and the rest of the mountain lemur kingdom was there, and the king and queen were happily sharing a waltz. Maurice was dancing with his sister while Prince Brodney was teaching their children the steps*
This takes place after the show's finale, but without the inclusion of the zoosters, so sort of like a parallel universe? Where Julien and Clover are monarchs together, which I think is neat. Also People tend to forget that Maurice has a sister, myself included really, and I kinda wish they'd had more cute bonding moments, so I gave then a brother/sister dance.
*even Pancho was leaning against a tree*
Aside from the main squad (excluding Mort of course) Pancho is the only minor lemur that Julien really mentions here. Almost like he was looking for him specifically. Hmmm....
*He caught Julien's eye and winked. Julien chuckled fondly.*
Casual flirt.
*"I do have a minor issue with the behaviour of one of your, ahem, subjects*
That little cough just feels like something the croc ambassador would do when he's embarrassed, or to sound authoritative, so he did.
*Julien tore his eyes away from Pancho*
"Tore his eyes away" almost like he didnt want to look away. Hmmm...
*The anxious lemur was currently giggling as he twirled his new boyfriend around*
Ah, I just want Willie to be happy and have a good time with his bf. He deserves to laugh more. New boyfriend infers that they're in the early stages of their relationship, so they're just messing around being silly and cute and having fun together.
*but Horst and Mary Ann weren't doing much better.*
Horst and Mary Ann deserve a nice romantic dance. It would be pretty awkward because she's twice his size and can only really walk on all fours, but they don't even care. They just cut their own path through the dance floor and ignore everyone else, no matter how annoyed the other dancers are because they keep getting in the way.
*"Well, they're both males!" He said. "It's completely unnatural, wouldn't you agree?"*
Oof, the croc ambassador wants that snooty monarch solidarity with Julien since he's the most popular king in Madagascar, but that ain't happening any time soon. Not with that attitude!
*Julien was lost for words. He had known ever since he was young that he liked boys. Every male in the kingdom liked boys! In fact, it was considered a little unusual if you WEREN'T interested in the same gender.*
I like the idea that homosexuality is just the norm in the party kingdom, kinda like She-Ra. People are just gay and nobody thinks anything of it and coming out is celebrated. Julien doesn't care if you're gay or straight though, he just cares for his peeps and wants them to love who they love.
*whatever their genders were*
A subtle difference between Julien and the croc ambassador, Julien says 'genders' while croc ambassador says 'sexes' because Julien is more open to the idea of gender not being confined to biology.
*Julien took a few deep breaths and tried desperately to not get angry.
"What's the problem man, they're just dancing." He remarked in what he hoped was a neutral tone.*
Julien tries to keep his cool here, a bit of his character development showing. He now knows that everything doesnt have to be a scene, so keeps his temper. It's also kind of to protect Willie and his partner though. He knows they're having a good time and he doesn't want to bring to their attention that their host doesn't like what they're doing, because he knows they'll be upset.
 *"rather not have it ruined by such atrocities being committed!"*
And this was the point where I started to hate the croc ambassador too while writing.
*"Oh, hey Julio." Pancho smiled at him. "I was just gonna-"*
Pancho was just gonna say that he was bored with the party and wanted to leave. He would have asked if Julien wanted to come with (he could tell Julio was getting bored and he couldn't have THAT), which would have been a different fanfiction entirely.
*"Wanna dance?" Julien said.*
I honestly can't remember if I thought of the title or this line first.
*He considered sticking his tongue out at the reptile's back, but ultimately decided that such a juvenile display wasn't the best way to get his point across.*
Again, character development. Julien has matured (a little) and realised that there are better, more fulfilling ways of getting revenge.
*"OK." Pancho said with a shrug, and slid his paw over to Julien's waist,*
Once Pancho can mentally catch up with what's going on, he rolls with it. In fact, he sorta likes the idea of dancing with Julien, and had been trying to gather the courage to ask him for most of the night. I wonder why...
*As they danced though, he began to feel his attention drawn to a different place: how smooth Pancho was on the dance floor,*
We all know Julien's attention span is not great, so there's no way he's going to be able to stay angry when he's too busy being distracted by Pancho's smoothness.
*He raised an eyebrow. "You just couldn't resist?"*
Not entirely subtle flirt.
*"But you know, you're not a bad pick." He patted Pancho on the arm.*
Not entirely subtle either flirt.
*"Abner over there's been missing steps and stumbling all night!" He glanced over at Abner and his wife with a small frown.*
Poor Abner, he's the one getting picked on tonight. Bit of a running gag here.
*Pancho's eyes widened and he instinctively pulled Julien closer, whether it was to shield him or to further prove the point, Julien couldn't tell, but the ringtail wasn't complaining.*
Pancho does pull Julien closer on instinct to protect him, he knows how badly homophobia would hurt Julien's feelings. Julien is just loving it though. He was more angry for Willie's sake than hurt anyways.
*"But us lemurs dance with guys all the time!" Pancho exclaimed. "I've seen you kiss four different guys at a party once! What's his problem?"
"That's what I'm saying, wait I did what?"*
Even if they weren't a couple, dancing together is just something the males would do. They're that casual. And of course Julien would go around kissing everybody at his parties when he gets drunk enough. Poor Julien doesnt remember half of what he does at parties though.
*"Oh no, I don't mind." Pancho remarked, then cleared his throat awkwardly, looking away.*
Awkward silence much? Internally Pancho is just screaming *why did you say that?!" because he doesn't know how to handle his feelings right now, especially not with Julien so close.
(For any other ballroom dance enthusiasts, what they're dancing would be a mix between a waltz and a slow dance. Like a casual, less fancy waltz that's quite easy for them to get the hang of, but still quite romantic and personal).
*"You know Julio, I don't think he's gonna notice." Pancho remarked.*
But eventually Pancho plucks up the courage. They're already dancing, he tells himself. And Julien just wants to make the crocodile ambassador mad. Julien kisses people platonically all the time so he won't question it. If he doesnt like it, say you were doing it to piss off the crocodiles. And if he does like it... well...
*"Well, I had an idea." Pancho was avoiding his gaze again."*
He's still nervous of course, but he's made up his mind. It's all or nothing, baby!
*"Lay it on me." Julien said.*
And he does! Literally!
*And holy Sky Gods.*
I was tempted to have this line be 'holy crap' or 'holy sh*t' because that's what I would say idk but holy sky gods just works better for the show's lore, and allows the story to keep a G rating.
*All thoughts of spiting the crocodile ambassador had been fully driven from his mind*
Julien just gets so caught up in the moment, he's all "what crocodile ambassador?" he just wants to keep kissing.
*Julien stroked his paw through Pancho's soft fur and deepened their kiss.*
I imagine Pancho's fur would be very soft, he's always playing around with explosives so he's bound to get his fur burnt off every now and then, and it grows back softer.
This was the first time I wrote the lemurs kissing, so it's not the most explicit thing in the world. I probably couldn't write an explicit kiss scene to save my life though.
*"Hoo-ah." Pancho sighed softly.*
Hoo-ah" is exactly what Pancho would say after having his mind blown by a kiss like that. Just no thoughts, head Julien.
*"Yeah, crocodile ambassador certainly thinks so." Pancho said, a wild grin overcoming his face*
Heh heh, Pancho's happy because he just got to kiss his crush (and he liked it!) But also because he can see the croc ambassador is pissed and he loves the opportunity to mess.
*some looking angry, some looking intrigued*
Some of the crocs are intrigued because they've never been able to be open about who they are or experiment because of compulsory heterosexuality in their kingdom. Seeing two guys just being so open about their attraction to each other would definitely help them rethink things. They've never seen gay love expressed like this and it's new and exciting.
*Julien's face broke out into an ecstatic grin.
"Yeah that's right!" He called wildly. "I kissed a guy! At your party! Boom, I like kissing guys! Ha, suck on that loser! Woohoo!"*
Oh the sweet triumph of proving a point. This rant was a joy to write, it just feels very Julien.
*He grabbed Pancho's hand and held it up.*
Grab your boyfriend's hand, hold it aloft like a prize.
*"I'm like ninety percent sure Ted likes kissing guys!"*
Haha, poor Teddy needs to be extracted from the closet, pronto. Julien just has an excellent gaydar.
* and tucked a protective arm around his daughter's shoulders, turning her away from Julien.*
I imagine princess Amy would have some questions after this, questions which her father would definitley struggle to answer. If she really wants to find out what Pancho and Julien were doing, I imagine she'd visit the party kingdom alone, and the lemurs would be happy to answer her questions. Pancho and Julien may have ushered in a new era for the crocodile kingdom and their relationship with LGBT+.
*There came a cheer from the crowd of lemurs and they all began to head off the dance floor*
Of course the other lemurs go with Julien immediately, he's their king after all and the moment he suggests that someone might not be cool with their sexualities, they're ready to bounce.
*Clover and Sage at the front hand in hand,*
Clover and Sage would definitley be behind Julien 100%. The moment he declares that they're out of there, they just drop everything to leave with him.
*some mountain lemur ladies holding hands too.*
Mountain lemur lesbians? Anyone? I just think it's neat.
*"You read my mind, Julio."
Julien pulled Pancho towards him and tried to ignore how it felt like there was a little party going on in his stomach when Pancho called him that.*
Julien really likes that name! I see it as an affectionate nickname Pancho gave him that eventually just evolves into a pet name that makes Julien a little warm and fuzzy inside every time he hears it.
*Julien's heart leapt with joy to see Willie clutching his boyfriend's hands as they danced.*
Daaaww, Julien might pick on Willie but at the end of the day he likes to see him happy. He's glad they don't have to stay at a party where their dancing is scrutinised.
*Pancho rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly as they stood face to face. "I'm sorry about kissing you, I just-"*
Now that there's some distance between them, Pancho has had time to think and wonder "oh sheesh, what if I messed it up, what if he only felt like it was platonic" and he's now all embarrassed, poor leem. He's just a guy in love.
*He nodded, then cleared his throat in an attempt to get a grip on his emotions. "You know, um, while we were dancing*
And now we see Julien trying to hold it together, these two are just so precious and I can totally see them stumbling over their feelings like that.
*kissed Pancho on the forehead, giggling slightly at the other lemur's squeak of surprise.*
Pancho is the perfect height for affectionate forehead kisses, let's not forget it!
*Pancho and Julien headed onto the dancefloor together and moved their bodies to the beat.*
They would have spent the night together just dancing and vibing (and making out probably).
*Nobody there who gave them the stink-eye or who told them that they were wrong. They danced and had fun and kissed without a care in the world. Julien felt so happy that his kingdom was a place where he could kiss Pancho all he liked.*
Ah I really went to town on the "love is love" concept here, didn't I? Well, a theme is a theme.
Julien's just really happy at the place he's created. He's glad they can dance and kiss and all that jazz, and he did that, he created a kingdom free of prejudice. It's exactly how I can see the kingdom's relationship with LGBT+ going down, a place where they're all just happy to vibe and be themselves.
.........
And that's the end. I hope you enjoyed this premium insight into my writings, and if you want commentary on another of my stories, or just have random questions, then my inbox is always open :)

what are your headcanons for andy and panchos relationships with the other characters in the kingdom? ❤❤❤ I love your blog!!
ohhh i love this question & tysm!! 🧡
it ended up being rlly long so here’s the cut ;)
Pancho
•Julien; Julien is like a brother or cousin to Pancho! He trusts the king more than anything after Julien basically saved .. well himself, but also him. any scheme Julien comes up with that he knows Maurice wouldnt approve of, he’ll go to pancho
•Maurice; maurice has a kind of wary vibe around Pancho ever since Pancho suggested eating him on the sub in exiled. he’s suspicious of him mainly because he wants to protect Julien tho, & he cant shake that Pancho is (or was) a sleeper agent programmed with the sole purpose of killing his best friend so
•Clover: Pancho is kinda cautious around clover since she’s always round the corner ready to bust him & Andy’s schemes. when it comes down to it they DO work together as they aknowledge each others skillsets. literally pancho is the only lemur (from the kingdom) who’s beaten Clover in combat. just once though.
•Mort; Pancho just......aknowlegdes his existance. he’s there i guess. doesn’t find mort as terrifying & creepy as the average citizen but Panch has probably seen worse. or he just doesn’t care. mort also does crimes so theyre just aware of each other.
•Becca & Abner; he’s kinda friends with them cus Andy’s friends with them. he goes round to deliver them stuff sometimes like moonshine or weapons from Andy. He probably shouldn’t pay too much attention to their government conspiracy theories though, they tend to really freak his paranoid ass out
•Timo; Timo is scared of Pancho or at least wary. He admittadly would like to study him tho & Panch is often a great help to him doing manual labour for any of Timo’s big projects
•Masikura; she mindmelded with him once & swore never again. she just doesn’t wanna know.
•Ted; Ted has a lil crush on Pancho (he’s one of Ted’s many crushes) & Panch will lightly flirt with him sometimes when he’s in the mood to. Pancho will bicker & grouch with him but they are really tight friends especially after their time together during exiled.
•Dorothy; at first she saw Pancho as this ideal bad boy type, but then realised how bad he smells cus he hates bathing. She’ll offer him tea like she does with everyone & (begrudingly often) lets him crash with her & Ted when they all stumble back drunk after a night out. Literally her & Ted both just have a mutual crush on Pancho is that not canon though
•Willie; despite being mean to Willie like EVERYONE ELSE IS Pancho and Willie are quite good friends. He’ll go stay with him whenever he’s worried about something cus he knows Willie will understand. sometime’s he’s too panicky for Pancho to be around though cus it sets him off
•Hector; I WANT THEM TO BOND OVER MILITARY HARDSHIPS & EXPERIENCE I THINK IT WOULD BE HELPFUL & HEALING FOR THE BOTH OF THEM! I should write about this sometime..........
•Horst; the DJ friend who he can always have a crazy sesh with; they actually get along pretty good. except when Pancho’s out here stealing his bolos. Like with everyone, Horst just rambles to Pancho when he’s drunk.
•Tammy, Butterfish & Todd; no real connection to them besides that him & Butterfish will often do the same jobs. They usually just make casual work chat. Tammy thinks Pancho is posessed by demons but he doesn’t let that phase him.
•Karl: he’s not rlly a “kingdom citizen” but he’s about there enough so. anyway Pancho just doesn’t treat Karl like the evil genius villain he portrays at all, since Pancho’s own morality is in the grey area, which kinda infuriates Karl that Pancho just talks to him like hes a normal person. he wants Julien’s people to FEAR HIM!!
•Dr. S; Absolutely not. they don’t even really have a friendship of any kind & Pancho is terrified of going to see the doctor as Dr. S literally experiments on lemurs...he’s not about that after what happened with the previous king.......Andy often has to drag him to the hospital kicking & biting to get him to go to checkups
•Nurse Phantom; u know what they’ve never interacted in canon but I think Nurse Phantom senses how troubled & anxious he is & takes a lot of time to talk to Pancho like if ever Andy or anyone else manages to drag him to the hospital, Rob will hold his hand if it comes to it; he goes into major helpful mode like offering him fruit & telling him he’s gonna be alright. He’ll also scold him for getting into so many dangerous scrapes & tells him he’s gotta look after himself!
Andy
•Julien; for some reason Julien just refuses to exile him even after all the bad shit he’s done BUT i think that’s because Andy is overall helpful to him like he ignores all the weirdness for example when they walked in on him & that rat holding a body wrapped in leaves because hey! we need tropheys Andy fast! thats the issue here!! perhaps its Julien’s awful adhd memory though & he just genuinely forgets. Julien is close with Pancho of course so Andy’s been round to the plane for parties & dinner as Pancho’s +1 of sorts— heck even he can be “polite” when he has to be.
•Maurice; Momo hates him. hates him hates him theres no turning back. i mean its hard not to when most of the citizens suffer from rediculous lemur stupidity & ur the only one who can see through this bat when he’s just standing there chatting shit. Very suspicious of Andy— plus he just thinks he’s creepy
•clover; LMAO bUT .....like obviously she hates him for good reason. but i do have this hc that’s way too long to write out that after Julien, Maurice & Mort literally fucked off to go with the zoosters in madagascar 2 Clover was literally responsible for two kingdoms cus she couldnt just leave them with a gecko in charge. I just want some situation where theres a proper twist & Andy ends up mellowing the hell out & actually being useful to her & the kingdom...he has skills but he uses them for nefarious reasons. She’d probably save his life somehow in the post-Julien chaos & he’d b like....”why would YOU of all people save ME?” n she’d b like... “well you are technically a citizen of this kingdom and ....i’ve gotta make sure you’re ALL safe for when ..... if King Julien ever gets back.....”
•mort; ??? sometimes theyre legit business partners. Mort can get in on a good scam. that second rub’s gonna cost ya. theyve probably been in the same prison before at one point. Mort’s so old.
•Becca & Abner; his fellow anti-establishment pals!! he doesn’t fully believe all of their ideas & theories but he loves em cus they’ll always buy self defence scorps off him. They get along & they drink a lot together by the stagnant watering hole. they’ve seen Andy in horrible states; all 3 of them are an idiot squad when theyre together. Becca & Andy argue a lot cus even she thinks some of the things he says are wack sometimes
•Timo; i have this hc that Timo, Andy & Karl knew each other when they were kids they kinda bonded together during school cus they were three non-lemur losers who got bullied for their eccentricity & varying levels of intelligence. Timo will sometimes go to Andy for stuff but he is his last resort really
•Masikura; probably mindmelded with him once & just saw a vision of him daydreaming about being kissed by Pancho & since then she was like. “Im not scared of the bird demon he’s just a big softie. where is my shipment of “ect” for my tea, that bird demon’s late again—“
•Ted; Ted is such an easy mark he can sell almost anything to him if he’s cheery enough. Helps that Ted thinks he’s really cute so Andy can just easily sweet talk him into buying whatever dodgy product he’s got at the moment. he knows & interacts with Ted mainly through Pancho being his friend!
•Dorothy; rlly wild hc actually that Dorothy used to be a propper crime don before she settled down with Ted— or when Ted was shifting into Snake more frequently back in the day for whatever reason—so Andy knows her from the criminal underworld. Cus of this he’s very respectful towards her... he’s seen what she’s capable of
•Willie; Andy could walk round the corner with his wings outstretched & say “boo” & Willie would pass out from shock. He’s also very easy for Andy to sell to- his fearmongering really works on Willie he’s very suseptable to it
•Hector; Hector doesn’t take any of Andy’s crap he’d probably just hit him with a broom if he came round his hut to sell him dodgy hand cream honestly
•Horst; Andy keeps him topped up with a steady supply of beverages...........Horst will actually sometimes ask him & Pancho for help with importing various new vinyl records
•Tammy, Butterfish & Todd; that family buys a LOT of product off him since they’re just typical americans basically he finds it rlly easy & reliable to sell stuff like drinks & toys to them. Tammy kinda hates Andy though & like Pancho, thinks he’s a demon. Doesn’t help that Mort nicknamed him “bird demon”.
•Karl; like with Timo i hc he knew him when they were in highschool—! Karl found Andy infuriating & so annoying though & didn’t consider him a friend at all. a lot of his early lazer guns were born from Karl’s growing need to shoot Andy out of the sky cus he’d fly up to get out of reach of his claws when he’d annoyed him.
•Dr. S; i hc that Andy and Dr.S are business or trading partners of sorts but they keep it very lowkey. Andy probably handles hits and the crazy snake doctor requires bodies and “test subjects” for his manic experiments. Andy is the perfect guy for the job! When Nurse Phantom is unable, Andy will hide the evidence of Dr.S’ malpractice for a reasonable fee, of course. He dislikes going to checkups himself though— he doesn’t like people knowing too much about him! Plus Dr.S always “””jokes””” about “””studying””” him because he finds the fact Andy is a flying mammal facinating & talks about using Andy’s wings to create a frankenstein flying lemur.
•Nurse Phantom; Rob just lectures him about being reckless & getting into fights everytime he sees him. Kinda the same as Dr. S really, but he does tell him like.. Hey I used to be pretty mean & put people in danger too. And that there’s always time to turn another leaf. Andy usually just scoffs, collects his paycheck, & leaves.

“Ew, I’m not French.”
I think that one might be a bit more funnier in context.
In light of recent horrors I'm trying to avoid, I'm also giving you a bonus content package of one mini ramble and an extra out-of-context WIP line.
Ramble:
Why the hell does the French keep popping up in DreamWorks stories? I just binged The Theorizer's Mort/DreamWorks Universe theory last night and he's onto something with the repeated France motif. Besides the antagonists with French last names (redhead lady in Madagascar, the Verninator, the racer guy in Turbo), Fairy Godmother is from a French fairy tale (or at least one that got popularized by the French), Madagascar itself I think was colonized by France, and Mort literally means "death" in French! Whether or not Mort is the skeleton key to unlocking the DreamWorks shared universe, this repetitive coincidence with the French is something that still demands answers.
Anyway, second out of context line:
Fuck all this sand.
(yes this is actual prose, not even dialogue; no it's not from the perspective of Anakin Skywalker)
Looking at my saved up responses (yet I set aside some lines in advance so I wouldn't have to scour all my google docs every time), honestly the one-sentence summaries are sounded more unhinged than the out-of-context lines. I recommend some tulips if y'all really wanna laugh. And reminder you can do up to 3 flowers. I actually recommend that more since I don't expect many asks/more content in one post/I have enough saved up to keep up with that.

ITS TIME FOR ME TO TALK ABOUT THIS ANGEL👏👏👏👏
(Who am I kidding. The time to talk about Julien is all the time. But especially now that it’s ahkj day)
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. ALL HAIL KING JULIEN HAS MADE HIM INTO SUCH AN INCREDIBLE CHARACTER!!!! No longer is he worth few seconds of comedy relief in Madagascar, or portrayed as the annoying nuisance in The Penguins Of Madagascar. He is his own person. He has his own flaws, he has his own strengths, and he grows throughout the show. He is perfectly balanced.  And despite all of this, he’s still the same character. He still does/says things that turn out badly. But, unlike everything else, Ahkj has given him a chance to redeem his mistakes. He, Maurice, Mort, Clover, and the rest of the kingdom are typically able to fix everything together. Which highlights how much he cares for all of them, and the impact they’ve made on one another. He’s still a fun character, who makes so many people smile and laugh, but now he’s able to make meaningful relationships. He’s able to learn new things and actually care about his kingdom and the people in it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
HIS LAST WORDS WERE GOING TO BE “I LOVE YOU GUYS” FOR CRYING OUT LOUD
Tumblr media
That impact shows. Julien has learned so much since the first few episodes. In the beginning of the series Julien so desperately wanted to be liked.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He doesn’t seem to care about that as much anymore. He knows he’s liked by those who matter. Instead of worrying if he’s not popular enough, he worries about how to keep his people safe when the island is sinking, how to bring everyone together and show “lemur spirit”, whether or not he’ll make it back in time to overthrow Koto and become their king again. He talks to his people. He spends time with them. He knows their names now!!
He still makes mistakes. Making mistakes is a part of what makes Julien, Julien. He’s not perfect, but he’s working on being the best king he can be. He loves those around him and he’s learning from them. He wants them to be happy! He has literally said, “if they are unhappy, I am unhappy!”
Julien is just such a good character in AHKJ. The writer’s did such an amazing job with him. He’s grown so much, and I love every second of it. I needed an excuse to say something.

so what im getting at is that king julian is bad bi rep, skipper would vote for trump (i think hes 13 bc penguin years or something) and mort is. mort. thanks for the encouragement AND the fact that skipper was denmark's number one enemy. why denmark though. - amii
king julien is only bad bi rep because the creators were huge cowards and didn’t make him gay. he’s not a ladies man, he’s a homosexual. also one of his love interests was named Karen. also i literally dunno about skipper’s listed age cause a) kowalski’s age is 14, so he should technically be older and b) the lemur ages are also listed as if they were human (king julien’s is like 18-35 or smth) so i really don’t know how age works in madagascar. it is interesting that skipper was alive during the end of WW2. and like... old enough to commit war crimes. mort is indeed just. mort and i have faint memories of an episode or two from The Penguins of Madagascar where a character named hans appeared whom Skipper hated. and like i think it was mostly due to hans that he ended up being denmark’s #1 enemy. he later on burned his criminal record tho, so i don’t think he is exiled from denmark anymore. but yeah it involved another character and to my knowledge people ship hans and skipper (hans is also some sort of penguin i believe idk)
the madagascar franchise is just confusing. also im 100% sure skipper would call it MAGAgascar (sorry for the cursed joke i just couldn’t help myself, skipper is literally a penguin supremacist 😔)
