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...

THE DUCK

Coming eventually (hopefully tomorrow I can get to outlines but we'll see)

I'm giving Punchy some lore (finally) and it's a bit angsty.

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.

Some things I found noteworthy of Hal from a small binge watching of SMG4 episodes in no particular order

Hal Monitor can in fact breakdance. This man can literally bust it down to reel you in, and by the time you realize it, his crew probably already has you walking to the car in cuffs.

2. Hal's face plate/monitor screen has seen some updates offscreen, allowing him to eat/drink like everybody else. I think it was the moment he and Meggy had in the "SMG4: Officer Meggy" episode that made him actually realize he hadn't eaten before (trying to mimic other coworkers behavior).

3. Transforming. Into. Other. Machines/Vehicles. I don't think anyone talks about this enough but Hal has transformed into a CAR, A TANK, A SENTRY GUN, AND EVEN GOT THE BODY OF OPTIMUS PRIME AT ONE POINT WHAT THE SCALLOP??? Only headcanon I can give that goes with this is that Jr. inherited this ability from his dad.

4. Warping through video recording devices. I think this is also very interesting because man can just be ANYWHERE in no time at all.

Am I just making this to make notes for any future writings/comics/headcanons I make of this guy?

Maybe. maybe.

you're going about your normal day when, suddenly, surprise! you've been pokémon mystery dungeon'd!

unfortunately, due to budget cuts, the pokémon assigning quiz has been canceled. instead, you must spin THE WHEEL, assigning you a random, unevolved, non-legendary and non-mythical pokémon. you must now go on some sort of world-saving adventure as this pokémon. good luck!

tell me in the tags what you rolled, and how you feel about it - for bonus points, you can spin the wheel again for (or just take your pick of) a pokémon to be your partner.

bonus rules:

you're not shiny unless the wheel tells you you're shiny

take your pick of regional forms and evolutions (for example, if you roll vulpix, it's up to you whether that means normal or alolan vulpix)

apply whatever logic you like with regards to gender

have fun and be yourself!
