Koopaling Clan Headcanons - Human Culture

Koopaling clan Headcanons - Human Culture

So we're both aware that dimensional travel between humans and Mushroom World citizens is canon. Mario and Luigi are canonically italian plumbers from Brooklyn, and some other characters are human in the Mario setting, an alien species in this world setting. An event common enough in my AU to gain a special division in Bowser's army! So how would the koopaling clan treat these aliens?

Ludwig owes his pianist career to human music. In the mushroom world, pianos are way too difficult for four fingered creatures, and having to tune them? They're treated mostly as rich people decoration, because trying to play anything is too much of a hassle. Ludwig tried to learn it by himself, however with barely any piano players and zero access to tutorials, he sounded terrible, to the point where people joked he's partially deaf. If it wasn't for Luigi who noticed him trying to steal his classical cassette player to try to replicate the pieces, and gifted him piano books and sheet notes translated by hand to darklandian, he would've been stuck smashing the keyboard for arguably the rest of his life. It's not just piano for Ludwig, either. He likes any art that comes from humans, intrigued by how good humans can get at it with zero access to magic! His favorite art period is Romanticism.

Lemmy has a lukewarm treatment of humans. He wants his tricks to be original, and it always annoys him when he discovers that his stunt, yet again, was made by a human before. But at the same time, they're fun to be around, certainly Luigi to pull pranks on him!

to Roy, human stuff is for NEEERDS. Wait. They have Jackie Chan? Okay, maybe human stuff isn't that bad..

Iggy uses human resources as a reference to his experiments. He loves discovering how different the experiments go, from different atmosphere and unique, earth specific factors. It's less biased than native research, either claiming that toads good koopas bad, or vice versa, and he really appreciates it. He also loves learning about human pets (carefully, to not make Ein jealous), especially insects!

Wendy enjoys learning human fashion, and snatching up pieces of the styling knowledge to herself. She also begs Luigi each time he goes back to Brooklyn for soap operas, because the darklandian television would've never dropped so low, and god is it entertaining.

Morton isn't interested in human culture too much. He once tried an Earth protein recipe and couldn't handle how much of it humans could have in one sitting. It took him a solid month to trust that Luigi's pasta isn't packed with powdered protein. (Don't even try to tell him that some people eat the protein raw)

And where's Larry, in all of it? He's too lazy to get interested by himself, he'd need a solid motivation to form an opinion on humans. Though he would absolutely love the meme culture if he ever discovers it, and God have mercy if he ever does.

What is your juiciest headcanon for Ludwig

Ludwig is an absolute incel. He has the money, the looks, the confidence, but socially he's an absolute failure. It's so bad in fact that Roy and Morton often follow him around during social gatherings, to prevent him from talking to females without supervision. The only reason the fandom likes him is because we get to see him in the natural family setting, he'd be absolutely insufferable if you met him face to face

I've just came out about my self shipping, bring it on

Headcanon dump - Wendy Orlean Von Koopa (Wendy O. Koopa)

age: 17

mbti: ESFP-A

birthday: May 28th

Wendy has alopecia, and often wears wigs. She's growing more confident about her lack of hair, though :)

her red coral necklace is inherited from her late mother

She's the only clan member who doesn't wear second claws (spiked bracelets). Her claws are the longest and she doesn't need extra support

She works a part time job as a stylist at Birdetta's saloon. It's a great cover up for her actual occupation as a member of an assassin clan, and she gets to perfect her eye for fashion

She's fixated on her wealth and status, joining the clan in that sensitive spot in the development where she gets aware of the status/money, but not old enough to correctly process it. She comes off as a spoiled brat because of it, but she means well

She has a short temper, and despite her outward appearance she is tomboyish thanks to being raised with 6 brothers, arguably more aggressive than Roy (which is a noteworthy achievement)

Wendy absolutely loves water, in all forms. Whether chilling at the beach or ice skating, she's always doing everything to end up somewhere around water. Which is natural for an aqua caster

Her fashion sense is best described as gyarū, if we want to pin point it, kōgal. The beachy energy, bright hair, endless phone charms and bracelets describes her to the tee. However she is eager to experiment with any colorful and hyperfeminine fashion style

her gold bangles serve a second function - they can turn into magic resistant handcuffs to help capture the clan's targets.

She is defacto the spokesperson for the Koopaling Clan. Approachable yet not easy to manipulate, a perfect in between

She specializes in social settings that require gentleness. Higher politicians, scandals, corruptions, if the situation requires high emotional intelligence, she's up for it

her weapon of choice for this reason are usually small, unassuming objects. Because that bedazzled gun surely is just a toy, just like this little pink pen that surely isn't a knife

Although she is not the physical tank of the clan, she has one of the highest body counts, reliably neutralizing targets without a trace

she loves helping others get better at styling, if they allow her. Ludwig didn't get so good at embracing his inner romantic goth by himself, y'know?

She almost always has some sort of gum on her, a habit to help pop her ears became a long term thing

She likes to draw a mole on herself, comically it almost always changes positions, she just puts it where it clicks the most on a certain day (a reference to her art, love y'all)

Kootie Pie is arguably the closest personality wise to her older counterpart, maybe became calmer and more lethal but her core traits remain the same

She wouldn't stop getting teased on her 16th birthday because of her 6 year old self demanding America for her birthday, being convinced she's 16 and not 6 (the adventures of super mario bros 3 reference)

She's by all means a feminist, wants to hop in to any mission which involves a female client or a female victim(s). She knows exactly what being ignored due to her gender is like, and wants to do some good to women in a similar position

She doesn't have a particular close person in the clan. She's always been more on the side, hesitant as the only girl of the group. All of her brothers love her dearly, though.

I'm not even talking about surface level "ah we're siblings so of course we love each other". They definitely got influenced by Wendy's presence in how they treat women, getting a healthy female figure as a reference to what should they do. Believe me, her scratches can break down even Roy's most stubborn stunts.

She loves her ribbons, wearing them both with or without the wig. It bordelines on obsession, she has one for every single occasion

her favorite color is actually red, but she wants to look more approachable so usually wears pink.

She absolutely loves decorating anything. other people, interior, exterior, gardens, nails, cakes, you name it. She often is seen designing whatever comes to her mind

She may look and act like a mean popular girl, but she really does care, she's just bad at displaying it

she is ALWAYS fashionably late. She's quite analytical like Ludwig and gets busy ensuring the safest route (that includes starbucks/hj) to the destination.

She loves trashy media, trashy pop, trashy soap operas, anything so bad that it's good. She enjoys laughing at the stupidity of it

Just because she loves hyperfeminine things, it doesn't mean that she's stupid. Most of her targets had made this exact mistake, assuming she's just another dumb blonde and where are they? ✨in the grave✨

Ludwig's red string of fate is tied on the middle finger 😭
