Batten down the hatches, its time for Mouse-ember’s shipping section. Once again the rules are simple: 1- each couple needs at least 1 mouse. 2- No crossing dimensions. Crack ships are ok, as long as the characters share the same universe.
Another 10 More mice mystique Maddness.
-Trapper Stilton x Connie (Geronimo Stilton)- Ok I admit Trapper is very much one of those characters I wanna drop kick, but I am not above him finding a little affection. Connie is the member of the “evil Thea harem”, and for all intense and purpose loves a good prank. Trapper (in the series) owns a joke shop. I like to think Connie is a regular, and that is where she likes to let her hair down. Sure she gives an occasional flirt to him to see if she can get a sale on a new gag. But both agree it is all in good fun.
-Felicity Fieldmouse x Mortimer Mouse (Disney)- Fun fact: Mickey has a sister. She has 2 sons. One is named Morty. Now every, and I mean every female in the Mickey-verse hates Mortimer. He is a jerky womanizer. So much so that even Pete has no problem kicking his ass. So where did that start? Minnie? Nooo he is a touch older. So my mad mind likes to think that he charmed Felicity, and is just enough of a dead beat dad to name his kid after himself.
-Stuart Little x Margalo (Sony Pictures)- Michael J. Mouse meets adorable bird girl. Its so sweet.
-Vedrfolnir (and bro) x Nidhogg x Ratatoskr (Norse)- Here’s an odd threesome that you don’t hear about often. And yeah I am stretching a little. The Tree quad as I like to call them is a falcon (more often than not accompanied by an eagle at the top), a squirrel, and a dragon (at the bottom). Ratatoskr is the mail man between the two of the other ends . Who is to say the little trickster didn’t pass the odd love note between them and wind up sparking a bit of romance. And while Ved and Nid try to decide what they wanna wear on their date, Rata takes the big bulky bird to the mead hall.
-Roderick Rat x Giselle Swan (TTA)- Margot and Danforth were not above using partners to seduce Plucky, so It’s a pretty safe bet that if it’s a greedy, underhanded, and all around self-serving Perfecto students will do whatever or whoever to get ahead. Plus this is a ship I never see around the fandom. So here we go. Giselle wants revenge on Shirley and Babs, and is looking to the school’s top mouse to get some help. He has their back, and he’ll get to watch them practice Agon the ballet. Win Win, right?
-Columbine Thatchling x Sophia Ryemaid (Redwall: The Scout)- A little one sided Fall/Spring romance never hurt no body. After Sophia rescues her, I like to think the baker would hope to convey her feelings with all manner of delicious delights where words tend to fail her. Even when Liam and Sophia tie the knot, her feelings trickle down to their young dibbuns. Making her a very devout godmother.
-Tanya Mousekewitz x Cat R. Waul (An American Tail)- I blame Fievel. Its been retconned that AAT2 was just a fantasy for Fievel. Why is he thinking about his sister being romantically stalked by a cat? Lets not shame Fievel for his size play kink. To each their own. I mean it is adorable, that she was the only one he wanted to spare. But did he think she would continue to sing while her mom and dad were being served to him on a platter?
-Sailor Iron Mouse x Sailor Tin Nyanko (Sailor Moon)- :iconmustlovefrogs: is absolutely to blame for this permanent headcannon. I cannot undo it.
- Bernard x Bianca (Rescuers)- My wife demanded that these two be put on the list, and let me tell you that I cant blame her. The agent and the janitor, although I do feel a bit cheated. They were part of a whole book series, and all we got was the smallest taste.
-Justin x Brisby (NIMH)- See this. This would have been a better part two. Show him being the awkward leader of the rats, and having Brisby as a girl friday, so to speak. Helping him find his stride, and helping her get her groove back.
And there we go. Here are a few more mousy romances that played in my mind. I am sure there are a ton more. Let me know down below. Alsooooo are there other monthly themes you would like me to tackle. Any you thought I missed throughout the year? Again, let me know down below. I bet there are a ton of ships you could challenge me with.
Hope you all have a wonderful upcoming holiday. Stay safe, be blessed.
Mouse-ember, The Return
Sweet Baby Ray’s honey mustard on whole wheat what is with these holidays. Sorry to have stalled out on the scribbles, but I swear I have a great excuse. This thanksgiving, I had the joy of spending the holidays with my little nieces. Both have more energy than me and 3 cups of dark roast. While sitting and watching @tanktolman and @roto_raptor (yes I am mentioning by name because they are awesome, and my minions’ fav for the moment) my littlest minion decided to go to the top of the staircase and after screaming “Uncle Joey!” LEAPED from said stair into my non existent out stretched arms. Faster than any muay thai class I had, my arms shot out to catch her. She is safe, but her full weight went on my thumb. My left thumb. I am left handed.
Nothing broke, and she was so sorry she kissed my thumb and gave me all the apology huggies. Her exact word “Huggies make you feel better, uncle Joey. I’ll give you another if you need it.” I hyper extended my thumb, it was screaming in pain and I could not be angry. They will rule the world one day. Just saying. There is no escape. They are adorable overlords in training. You have been warned!
On that note, Welcome to the last (at least for this full year project) theme’d month started by TheAubri and I. We are back again with Mouse-ember! We spread the holiday joy with another list of fandom rodents that live rent free in my vast melon of imagination.
12 Dazed and confused rodents in the maze of my mind
12- Capybarian Alien (Space Dandy)- Why the hell did they make her barely dressed and irresponsibly thicc? That’s two C’s, spellcheck! Don’t even try to correct me! And she was so mellow about telling Dandy about the time anomaly that surrounds her planet. But all I can think is “Why the thicc????”
11- Rhubella Rat (TTA)- Ok I know they wanted her to be Babs’ rival/antithesis (the Mickey/Bugs gender bent refs were not lost on me) but they really didn’t do anything with her except make her a spoiled rich bitch. A cute spoiled rich bitch, but still just a bitch. Hey Looniversity get off your asses and step up. I want quality villains!
10- Hubie and Bertie (WB)- The second gay couple of the Looney Toons gang. Right next to/ probably in the same polycule with Mac and Tosh. They fill the antagonist role with Claude and Sylvester and in my opinion do it way better than Tweety ever could. If I had to give them one con, it’s that there wasn’t enough with them.
09- Splinter (TMNT)- The OG turtle dad, 2003TMNT and 2013TMNT we don’t talk about Rise in this house. But seeing many talk about it as a study in psychological divergence has made me wanna give it a try. Just not the first 10 episodes.
08- Ms. Bianca (The Rescuers)- Seriously, Disney could fuse this with Rescue Rangers and make her the new head of the Rescue Aid Society.
07- Vinnie (Biker Mice)- I love the fact that he was so in love with himself, that species meant nothing. A horrible facial scar, screw that I have a stylish mask. And considering his voice actor, don’t you wanna see him pimp slap a shark with a chainsaw? I wanna see it happen.
06- Ninkilim (Sumerian Myth)- Thank you Sumeria for giving me a gender fluid diety that acts as the lord of vermin/swarms. Although drawn as a “she”, they are mentioned and spoken of as a “masculine.” I wonder what can be done with them.
05- Simon (Chipmunks)- My favorite munk. Especially in the “At the movies” season where he was Batmunk as well as Sherlock. I found it funny that he was either shipped with Jeanette, or Britney. He was flexible with his romances and that’s why I liked him. As the regular straight to the zany, he is given more chances to explore as a character.
04- Peepers (Rock-A-Doodle)- This mouse has a level of sass almost as big as her….. rear. Gotta respect a shrimp of a mouse that can fly a huge helicopter.
03- RatTrap (Beast Wars)- He is the jerk you gotta love. He keeps the team level by being the rogue to Optimus’ paladin. The wisdom to Cheetor’s childishness. The everyman to Rhinox’s genius. And Dinobot’s living conscience. He was a sneak, but you knew he was a sneak and he never wavered from that. Even when his gold heart was shining through.
02- Violet (Thea Sisters/ Geronimo Stilton)- Thea has her harem, but if I had to choose one to simp for it would be the tea drinking, folklore loving nerd. She is a Jill-of-all-trades, and seems to be a font of random knowledge given whatever event they may be experiencing.
01- Justin (NIMH)- With all due respect, screw Brisby’s whiney crotch spawn, this ws the guy we should have been following in part 2. A captain of the Rose Bush Rat Guard, he falls for the protagonist mom, and has to leave after being thrusted into leadership as the rats move to Thorn Valley. Why was that not the sequel. We could see him struggle with leadership. See him leading the mice while dodging NIMH hunters.
Oh my whiskers so many rodents to sit back and enjoy. And its been a year, so I know you all can think of more mousey maniacs to fill another list. So how about it? Good, Bad, in-between do you have anyone you think deserves mention? Feel free to add them in the comments below. Hope you all have a great weekend. See you soon for more mouse madness.
Commissions on hold while I work with what's on my plate.
Doe-vember is feasting on love.
So is made the second list of the month. As like all the others, its time for themed ships that run free in my mind from time to time. There are a few rules. The first and foremost is that each ship must involve at least one member of the hoofed variety. The second rule is that even with crack ships they have to remain in universe. No crossing over to other shows/fandoms. It makes things harder, but really helps you be clever with the combinations. From friendships to kinky freaks, all ships can set sail in this navy.
With that said, here we go.
10 pairs of clopping hoof couples.
- On Stage x Raspberry Beret (MLP)- I really really deserve an award for not flooding this list with ponies. If we switch up the months next time I will insist on one list being ponies. Back on track, here is a crack ship I hardly see. These two are part of the troupe that was tasked with teaching Celestia stage acting. They focus on method acting. So when they both managed to get the part of a soon-to-be-married couple in a Manehattan play, they tried dating to get into character. Nopony knew the wedding at the third act was real until she threw the bouquet into the audience.
- True Heart Bear and Noble Heart Horse (Care Bears)- Yeah they are a couple, and I gotta wonder what catastrophe occurred involving Dark Heart that forces them to take a ship of babies into hiding? We are totally missing out on some interesting lore.
- Pinky x Phar Fignewton (Animaniacs)- Boy likes his ladies big. Much respect.
- Vinnie the Deer x Fifi Le Fume (TTA)- This one took a little creativity. In Looniversity, Fifi likes to mention her exs. Rather than being boy thirsty like her original design. Then I saw the new Vinnie design and thought… yeah he’s an ex. Personally, I prefer Vinnie’s original design.
- Officer Clawhauser x Chief Bogo (Zootopia)- You’ve seen the movie, and the short where Bogo comes rushing in to be his dance partner. Its so cute and awkwardly wholesome.
- Heqet x Khnum (Egyptian Myth)- Heqet is the frog diety that controls the Nile’s floods. Khnum is the ram headed deity that is the true source of the nile. She decides how high he rises and how fertile the nile will be. If you cant see the innuendos here, I have failed as a perverted bad influence.
- Sophia Bolgereli x Pepe Rubbanosa (Animalympics)- This was cute. These two were a part of the big marathon race. My headcannoning brain had them hooking up while everyone was glued to Rene and Kit’s running romance. They actually hook up before the start of the Games, and Pepe can’t help but tease her at the starting line even though they promised to keep things professional.
- Dhahabu x Bunga (Lion Guard)- I am honestly not a fan of the little honey badger. In truth, my urge to kick him on the same level as “start of Boo” Gotenks. But I did think his crush on the zebra queen was adorable. Shows that honey badgers want what they want and care not for much else. If Timon and Pumba could make it work, I don’t see why they couldn’t.
- Ryoga Hibiki x Ukyo Kuonji (Ranma ½)- Ok this one is a stretch, but Ryoga does turn into a pig. In the manga Ryoga eventually hooks up with a sweet girl that raises sumo pigs, but I didn’t start on the manga. I watched the anime. In the anime it was often implied that the directionless downer would have some kind of relationship with the bi- queen of cuisine. In the large group of oddballs, she seemed the most sensible. In Akane’s harem, Ryoga seemed to have some what of a level head. It often seemed to be that they would gravitate to each other in spite of all their shenanigans.
- Asgore Dreamur x Snowdin Shopkeeper (Undertale/ Deltarune)- Lets be honest about Asgore, he doesn’t get a lot of love. Even in Deltarune, he is a helpless sad sack who is hung up on his ex. Occassionally the big bear of a ram might get a few bones tossed his way, but its rare. So in steps my crack shipping brain with a thought… how about the Shop keeper from Snowdin? See when the wall is shattered and the monsters head above ground, Asgore pretty much abdicates the throne and gets a job/hobby as a gardener. When you shop keeper is spoken with in the epilogue, she says that she and her sister wanted to open a shop/inn above ground. Well every good hotel needs a competent groundskeeper. This is where Asgore fits in. Eventually she starts to fall for his dorky awkward charms. Unlike Toriel, the ShopKeeper doesn’t blame Asgore for his actions. She does feel bad, but sees it as a terrible necessity to free their people. If anything she felt pity for the big lug. Seeing him bond with her kids softened her heart to him more and they start an awkward relationship.
That’ll do for now. I am quite sure there are many more hooved couples that I have yet to touch up on. Well the comments below are open. Feel free to make your own lists and share them with us. Hope you enjoy the rest of the month.
Yup I still have commissions open. Feel free to toss me a line in the DMs.

Doe- vember is here.
Good lord and butter these past two months were full of hype. These past three weekends have me working multiple shifts. I got stuff I wanna draw, dang it! I cant draw in the office! Still gotta find a quiet spot to spend my lunch hour. That being said my mind is still running a mile a minute with these theme'd months. Here we go with month eleven, TheAubri and I decided that this month could be dedicated to creatures of the hooved variety. Even or odd we are saying hello to the horses, cattle, rhino and even tapir (who knew) of the fandoms.
10 pairs of hooves marching down my mind
- Lady Amalthea (The Last Unicorn) - Hard to decide if I prefer the book or the movie unicorn, but lets go with the cartoon movie for fun. Amalthea has that aged/although naive air about her. Practically immortal, but knowing very little about the world outside her forest. I would love to see a remake of this with a little less of the dry singing. Maybe a cyber/steam punk series.
- Thirty/Thirty (Bravestarr) - From fantasy to wild west.... in space, Thirty/Thirty is a badass cyber bronco (and part time steed) of Marshal Bravestarr. This cyber equine goes from quad to biped thanks to ancient alien tech and its always a show to see him transform. That, and he has a huge Fuck You gun. I loved his brash manners. Its so freaking 80s.
- Pinkie Pie (MLP Gen4) - Well let's see, I've gushed about Gen1's Shady, and swooned about Gen 4's Applejack so who should I gush about now..... I swear you have no idea how hard it was to not turn this into a total ponies list. Soooo difficult. As the 4th wall breaking mad pony of the group, Pinkie was nothing if not random. And officially the first of the Mane cast to be an official mom. Though looking back on it, she had the most scenes interacting with kids. If the writers had intended this from the start, I would not have been surprised.
- Ferdinand (Ferdinand) - Yeah the new movie was good (Angus is voiced by David Tennant, so much to love), but if I had to choose it would be the original short. The hand colored animation, the familiar narration. Also Ferdinand's mom lands in the very short list of Disney moms that actually lives through the child's life.
- Annabelle (Annabelle’s Wish) - Ok here is my obligatory X-mas add on for the month, Annabelle. A sweet little calf that wishes to be a deer and pull Santa's sleigh. This little sunny bun has lots of misadventures as she grows, and seeing her experience such events is a joy to watch. Its a wonderful story of many x-mas miracles.
- Sleipnir (Norse Myth) - Seriously, everyone is freaking sleeping on this character. Ok I get that he is not exceedingly prominent, but that leads to a lot of fun. One of the children of Loki, he was made the steed of Odin. But considering his mom was a master shape shifter, who is to say that he didn't trot around in many disguises when not being dragged by his uncle into random battles. The other children of the back biter were cast out of Asgard. How do they feel that he was spared. Was he spared, or was he the key to an even deeper plot? I'm saying that the boy has possibilities.
- Grace (Home on the Range) - I'm a sucker for Jennifer Tilly. She is an awesome character actress. Grace is a dear heffer, who's tin ear plays a big roll in her film. And that is hilarious because Jennifer Tilly can really sing amazingly. Fun thing is that in a few wikis, Grace is said to have a huge crush on Buck, but took the bull, Barry as a mate. Now I don’t recall her interest in Buck going anywhere past infatuated, but let’s put on the old feed bag and chew this cud of an idea for later.
- Starlite (Rainbow Brite) – The equine has an ego and the skills to match it. Starlight is one of those “full of themselves” characters that you legitimately grow to like. To me he came off as the type that stood on a pedestal and knew you could make it too. After all, the view is fantastic. And who wouldn’t want to share.
- Clarabelle Cow (The Three Musketeers) - Ok she was the fun gossip in House of Mouse, but when they made her the dread assassin, Lady de Winter, I just swooned. Probably more than Goofy did in the film. Fun fact, she is typically passed between Horace and Goofy in shipping lanes. I say why not both? Let her be the meat in Disney’s first Throuple sandwich. She had enough sass for two savants.
- Tony Tony Chopper (One Piece) – The cutest doctor in the history of doctors. Respect to the little guy who used mad science to beef up his devil fruit to crazier forms. And considering his string of admirers, you could say he has excellent taste, if he noticed any of them.
There are plenty more herds running around in my head. I bet you all could name a few more. Feel free to prance into the comments and leave your own lists below. I am curious to see who might appear.
Yup I still have commissions open. Feel free to toss me a line in the DMs.

Swiping left or right on a ouija board
The spooky month is in full swing with many towns around holding pumpkin festivals. Some looking awful romantic to every witch and ghoul in the neighborhood. Good a time as any to add the next shippers list from :icontheaubri: and I. Rules are simple, one or both members in the ship has to be of the unliving persuasion. Crack ships are fine, but they have to be possible in series cannon. No crossing universes.
Here we go:
13 Hauntingly romantic couples
-Charlie x Sasha (ADGtH series)- Ok I give the series this, it gave a really nice premise. Charlie returns to life as a guardian angel for the living. It figures well that he would find heaven boring. Sasha as his no nonsense fri was cute too. Someone who can see past his bull and keep him on the good side.
-Casper x Wendy (HarvyToons Comics)- Funny enough, this is relatively new as far as the characters go. It was shown that they were best of friends in the comics, but it wasn’t until the 1998 “Casper and Wendy” movie that it started getting cemented that Wendy’s tastes were pulse optional.
-Napstablook and Mettaton (Undertale)- This was sooo cute! They lived together, and when Mettaton went to get a physical form, they drifted apart. It wasn’t until Frisk came along that they started to get back together. I was always curious if they would team up again.
-Allister x Hitomi Ghost Girl (Pokemon)- Ok this took a bit of headcannoning, but hear me out. The Hitomi ghost is a ghost players meet early in the Kalos region. Supposedly a human ghost that did not pass on and is haunting the city of Luminose. Allister is a shy ghost leader who loves to travel and hang out in haunted areas. Luminose’s ghost would be right up his alley of curiosity. In the anime, Allister has his ghastly line as well as his Cursola. In the manga and game, he also has a “yamask”. So here is the headcannon, Allister spends his time ghost hunting, and stumbles onto the lost ghost girl. She haunts as only a dead hex girl can, and instead of being afraid, he enjoys her company. When she finally decides to pass on, she is amazed to have become a yamask. She acts as Allister’s ace bodyguard and when not training with him she plays with his masks. Her hope is that he will become a yamask one day and they can float along cemeteries together.
- Chernabog x Maleficent (House of Mouse)- Watch House of Mouse’s villain episode. She is totally crushing on him, and he is a big fan of “her work.” Not all villains do the “romance thing,” but I can absolutely see them going on romantic flights to spread terror. Even a few of her orc soldiers look like the monsters he creates on Bald Mountain.
- Ghost Freak x Lydia (Danny Phantom)- This was a curious combo. Ghost Freak is a ringmaster of a ghost circus who used his cursed items to control ghosts, but even without such items Lydia stays by his side. Maybe he is that charismatic, or maybe she has bad taste. Or an even bigger story is hidden before the audience meets that pomp jerk. Only Lydia knows, and she aint saying.
- Iris x Misery (Ruby Gloom)- Two ace gal pals being a bit more. You really don’t see them fawning over anyone in the show. Iris loves excitement, and Misery loves her disastrous bad luck. I like to think Iris would get into a relationship with Misery not only because they are good friends, but she’d be hard pressed to find a lover who is even half exciting.
- Webbie x Lena (Ducktales)- Its cannon. You know it, I know it, the world knows it.
- Deadman x Orchid (DC)- This was a particularly cute nod in Justice League Dark. It was the reimagining of a classic DC heroine into being the living consciousness of the House of Mystery. One of the first things she did after taking a physical form is look at Deadman and going “Momma wants.” Much to Deadman’s embarrassment.
- Atem x Tea (Yugioh)- He treats her dreams with respect and rescued her from a kidnapping. I can absolutely see the attraction. My only concern is that to get to him, she’d have to use Yugi’s body as a conduit. Can’t tell if that would be considered a awkward threesome, or if Rebecca would approve. Still an interesting story to tell.
- Elsa x Grunt (ghoul school)- I gush a lot about Phantasma, but here is my next favorite of the girls. Elsa is a flesh golem and tech head of the Grimwood group. It was cute to see her getting along with the Muscle of Calloway called “Grunt.” Not sure if that’s his real name (and if so his parents must have hated him). I like to imagine if asked why she liked him, she’d point to a random body part and say “A part of me liked him.” Flesh golems are interesting because a writer can point if a skill or interest is literally their own, or a muscle memory from a donated organ.
-Wizardmon x Gatamon (Digimon)- In the anime he looks like a haunted ragdoll. That totally counts. Even after his death, Gatamon still held him close to the heart, and that was just too sweet for me. They needed more stories together.
- Sayo Aisaka x Asakura Kazumi (Negima)- Nice little background characters in one of my favorite animes. Sayo is the spirit of a dead student that in the beginning was only seen by the wizard Negami. With a lot of help fron the class, she is seen by everyone. She is even given dolls to possess, to interact with others. At the end of the story, it is said these two team up as investigative reporters. I can absolutely imagine them chatting with vampires and demons to get the bigger scoop.
These are just combos in the fandoms. They haunt my mind every so often, but how about the rest of you? What ghostly couples make you go doki doki in the night? Feel free to comment below, and have a boo-tiful night.
Happy Halloween!
