POPSTAR MR PEANUTBUTTER
you know what. i think you're being too rude to captain peanutbutter. he's doing his best
ok old married couple au, they’re both on the porch smoking, bojack gets a phone call, is like “here, hold this” and sticks his cigarette in pb’s mouth. PB starts smoking both cigarettes, and once Bojack is done on call he just lights another instead of taking his back from PB
This is funny in my head i hope im able to astral project that straight in your mind effectively
BRILLIANT brilliant idea
but it seems to me that omc!pb would only smoke when he was very nervous (as it was once shown in the first season), so this situation is more suitable for alphas, maybe at the beginning of their relationship?
anyway you inspired me and i made a comic:
pb after a spam attack on bojack's phone:
life partners au: teenage years
i wanted to write SO MANY things but it seems like my brain DOESN'T work at all, so please take this i hope you understand what i tried to convey
mostly they're just two best friends who argue about stuff all the time, get into all kinds of trouble together (usually pb's fault ofc) and value each other very much. also childhood crush on the part of both of them, which pb doesn't realize at all (since it is normal for him to love others and he cannot specifically identify these feelings as something more romantic), but bojack begins to realize closer to the age of 16 and is simply horrified by this (then he will convince himself that imagination just ran wild anyway), and all this mess continues until they turn 25-27 and enter into an official relationship yeahhh
mr peanutbutter and bojack from alpha!au in general
Thanks for responding and considering my idea! You even made wonderful art, thank you very much! I think that the fact that they are older would be one of the facts that would be more interesting in my idea, but at the same time I really think that it would take a while for both of them to consider the idea of having children... I'm not very good at math, but do you think it would work for them to be in their 40s after season 6? I guess that's PC's age, besides. But I don't really remember. Hopefully they would take about 10 years to consolidate the idea, when PB suddenly had baby fever and received a suggestion for Surrogacy. They would be around 50 years old, maybe. Then they would still be old parents. I was thinking they might have a stallion first, with Bojack's DNA. He could be a boy, in my mind, similar to Bojack. He would be shy, and obedient, a follower of rules. Although in adolescence I see him as more mean and rebellious, but with others and not with his parents. The problem of old age would be an important point in his story, as it would give him a sense of responsibility towards his younger brothers (Yes, Bobutter tried again some time later, but with Peanutbutter's DNA. It would be a pair of golden twins .), anxiety and constant worry about knowing how and when their parents could die. He would also be completely against drugs and alcohol, given Bojack's story. His name would perhaps be CrackerJack? Honoring his late great uncle. And the twins would be Sara and Lance. I'm still not sure about these names, but I thought it would be a good pun for Sarah Lynn. I thought about also giving compound names to honor Peanutbutter's parents, but I don't know what their names are, since they were never said in the series. They would be very hyperactive, distracted, but very smart twins. Sara would look a lot like PB, while Lance would, surprisingly, kind of look like Bojack. He loves sarcasm. They also really love Crackerjack, and almost always follow their big brother's orders. Lance admires his older brother a lot, but sometimes finds him very annoying. Sara too, but she already likes her brother's protective ways more, even though it can sometimes be suffocating.
oh actually your idea sounds even more interesting in that way. if their rather old age has any special effect on their relationship with the kids it'd be interesting to consider!
omg i was also thinking about labrador twins!! that's just such an awfully sweet concept! i also like that bobutters would name them after sarah lynn and crackerjack (or bojack could give one of his children the name harper out of strong sentimentality??).
you described their characters in an interesting way, especially crackerjack's one. it would also be interesting to explore it in more detail, and if you have any ideas exactly what he looks like, i would be glad to hear them!
thank you for your thoughts! they'd definitely make loving sometimes fucked-up parents. it would be fun to watch! :)
