Why Does Your Version Of Shroomy Have A Scar On His Back? What Happened?

Why does your version of Shroomy have a scar on his back? What happened?

Shroomy's been hit with more than ONE bear attack, if anything, I probably should've added more.

It got to a point where Shroomy wanted to throw hands with them ON SIGHT might I add.

Suffice to say, man's got some scars from these fellas. Probably why we haven't seen Cub Scout leader "Victor Smokeavich" (I think that's how you spell it???) return because Shroomy probably has beef with him despite formally being his star pupil scout.

THE DUCK

I'LL TAKE YOUR ENTIRE STOCK!

Whatever (becomes marketable)

The first night wasn't the easiest...

And introducing the brother of the hour: Verdant Mushroom! Punchy's older brother/parental figure!

Verdant, while mostly stoic towards others, was always quickly switching up to share his feelings with Punchy. The duo's folks weren't always available due to their "habits" and "discussions" as he put it, but they made due. Verdant was taking up any odd job he could to make enough money on the side to buy themselves a couple tickets to a new life in the Mushroom Kingdom. But with a recent upping in rent price costing them possibly getting out unscathed, Verdant makes the sacrifice to pay for Punchy's ticket and wait for another chance to pay for his own.

Punchy misses his brother, and for the first few nights was waking up in cold sweats from nightmares of Verdant telling him to "Get out" in a much more cruel voice, almost sounding like someone else... Punchy blames himself for not making enough to help, for not doing "anything" and as such has been trying to take up jobs to send Verdant in hopes of paying for a ticket to reunite once again.

Shroomy just hopes the Luncheon Kingdom opens up soon, just so he can finally stop lying about "sending Vert the money" for Punchy's sake and unite the brothers once again.

( I know that I just asked you a question but I’m bored af)

Do you have any Hal angst?

BE NOT AFRAID TO SEND ASKS BESTIE. BE NOT AFRAID.

As for Hal angst... There's alot one could go over. Such as :

How Hal's father's death affected his life, and possibly how he works at being an "enforcer of justice" (And the possibility that the "Death is inevitable!" quote might've unfortunately been his father's final words before said death) from then onward.

While his father might've meant this quote as a way to ease the pain for Hal, it definitely seems to have done the opposite. Man is probably putting the work in overwork at his job now because of one thing:

HE WAS AT THE SCENE WHEN IT HAPPENED. HE COULDN'T STOP IT. And he CAN'T accept that reality yet, if at all. HE is supposed to BE AN ENFORCER, not some bystander to something so tragic. So he tries to work hard to avoid speaking about his pain instead in a healthier way. He CAN'T. Not when there are people to protect from a similar fate.

Jr has tried to talk with him about this, but Hal always redirects the subject back to how Jr. is doing. Jr wants to help his dad, but his dad seems to not want any. Not until he can ENSURE SAFETY FOR ALL.

How Mrs. Monitor's (albeit offscreen) death affected Hal and Jr.'s life (exclude this from the "Mrs. Monitor Lives AU")

This left Hal and Jr. in a more unstable finacial state, but when Jr. got his own body built, he took over his Mom's old "Apppliances Store" (Yes it's spelt that way in the show, and the headcanon why is because Mrs. Monitor "autocorrects" it to that instead of Appliances, to which Hal and Jr. refuse to change it). Now the duo are overworking buddies!

Jr. has been saving up for something for a while without his father knowing though... Therapy. Jr. knows what the two of them isn't healthy, even if they are "Robots/Cyborgs" thanks to the lovely advice from Shroomy and Karen (who stop by/babysit on occasion). He wants to help them get better, BE BETTER for each other's sake. But the only problem now is getting Hal to agree to going along with him to said sessions...
