Mario and Bowser's rivalry after 30 years: Exists mostly just to uphold the status quo, instantly dissipates whenever the situation calls for it, Peach's kidnappings probably follow a very specific schedule and after every single one they all go out for coffee together. Luigi is unironically Junior's favorite babysitter.
Sonic and Eggman's rivalry after 30 years: If You So Much As Breathe In My Direction I Am Literally Going to Kill You With My Bare Hands
Turns out I really liked that short comic I made at the end there, so I went back and gave it some polish! :D
As I was drawing, I did a little more thinking about the comic and why Wendy was crying and a mess in the first place. And the idea I got is the Koopalings mother used to play dress up with Wendy on occasion. Painting their nails together and wearing fancy jewelry.. Well I'm thinking that she passed away some time ago.. and its just been.. hard. Wendy tried to dress herself up and paint her own nails, but she couldn't quite do it. It just made her sad and reminded her of who she lost.. Luckily, one of her big brothers was around to help cheer her up. :}
Now this backstory and the character designs are still in development of course. I think Wendy's design needs a bit of tweaking.. but other than that, I'm happy with how this comic came out! :}}
Half asleep Bowuigi idea where Luigi gets kidnapped and somehow castle chef is not able to make food and Luigi volunteers because these kids are hungry and they need to eat!
He makes a massive Italian meal, Kamek doesn't even know where he got the ingredients from but he eats a bit and is not complaining, all the Koopalings eat it and are instantly like ‘we are keeping him’.
Suddenly all the minions are actually really really trying to stop Mario it goes to Kaizo levels hard and Mario is not having a good time, but he is getting his brother back. Peach is not sure if she should be offended or not that they’ve never been this bad when it was her kidnapped.
Bowsers confused why it’s taking Mario so long (He’s a bit happy though because the green one is kinda nice to talk to NOT THAT HE WILL EVER ADMIT THAT)
Bonus: The Koopalings met Polterpup and lose their minds because IT’S A DOG! IT’S A GHOST DOG! HE HAS A GHOST DOG WE ARE KEEPING HIM AND THE DOG! WHY DID YOU KEEP KIDNAPPING THE PRINCESS DAD THIS GUY IS SO COOL AND HE HAS A DOG!
Imagine with me Mario knows exactly what Luigi‘s type in men are so when him and peach are talking Mario’s like “what does this bowser fellow even look like anyways” peach goes on to describe him as like 10 foot fire breathing turtle Mario starts asking questions like how would you describe his eyes
Peach:… I guess Stern and sharp
Mario: looking increasingly worried “does he have a deep voice like rustic”
Peach: starting to get concerned yeah??
Mario: I need to get to my brother!!
Peach: what? I mean of course we’re going to get your brother but you seem… Extra desperate
Mario: I can’t have my brother falling for tyrant
Peach: WHAT?!?! Mario what are you talking about.
Mario: “ tall! deep rustic voice! sharp AND stern looking man THATS TOTALLY HIS TYPE!! we’re lucky that he’s a real bad guy so it’s not like he’s going to do anything like caress Luigis face gently ”
meanwhile Luigi looking into Bowser‘s eyes as his chin is lifted up to make sure he doesn’t look away (oooh nooo hee’s hoooot!!!!)
