Hi, everyone! It's Louisa here (for Iphigenia and a few others~), and I am trying very hard to get back into RP. Boo, work.

So! I have a kind of getting-to-know-you game we can play. Maybe it will be...fun? Hopefully? /cringes at self

I'm curious about everyone's pups' and their respective canons, and I'm hoping others are as well! So, in this post, feel free to link to video clips/blogs/general flailing about the worlds from which your characters come from. Go wild! Wax poetic! Just be excited about media!

Also, if anyone wants to use this post as a sort of ~enabling~ thing, go right ahead. We probably all need more characters to play, right?

It's incredibly impressive how, even with all his adventures, and a giant pincer, he manages to keep his beard so long.

Also, wow did the tv Naugus have a different voice to the one I'd thought he has.

[ixis]

Yeah, you think someone would be tripping over that thing constantly. But he's had it since he was "born" so maybe he's just used to it. Maybe he braids it when he's on the go. Maybe it's Maybelline.

Also YEAH CHECK OUT THAT ASTHMA. WHY HE BREATHING LIKE THAT. SOMEONE HELP HIM.

Also, Tim Curry does the voice of Sally's dad, King Acorn. So that happened.

EDIT: Also, just cuz: I usually picture Naugus' voice in the comic (and Nexus) canon sounding like more like this clip from an unrelated game. Might as well throw that out too since this is share and care time!

[shardofwinter]

Maybelline indeed! ... Or it's magic and he uses it like his tail. X]

I don't know! D: He never stops gasping!

Wow, well. You find famous actors in such odd places.

Yes, much more like I imagined it. Deep, booming, occasionally hammy... (Pun not intended)

There's some points where listening to those weird gasps and rasps made ME feel like I was choking. Gotta do some breathing exercises. Who greenlit this.

I think the only carryover from the show version of him is his occasional habit of hissing when he's pissed. Otherwise, safely imagine the above clip and enjoy. B]

OK WOW. I knew that voice sounded familiar, but I didn't realize it was Tim Curry until you just said so. Mind = blown. :o

HAHA that icon's face. Pretty much mine the first time I rewatched this ep in recent years. "...That's not Tim Curry." Checks IMDB. "Okay, so maybe it is."

[drehnifusbahi]

Yeah, thank whatever Hollow-Art user made these for preserving that one, eh? And thank Luke Pasqualino for having a ridiculous face, too. :) (fun fact: that face and a few others in the set are what inspired me to even watch The Musketeers in the first place)

Oh man, I had the same thing happen not too long ago. Got nostalgic and started watching Peter Pan and the Pirates on YouTube, heard Captain Hook and went "where do I know that voice from?" Checked IMDB and, oh hey, it's Tim Curry. He went on a cartoon voice-acting spree during the 90s, I guess.

[ixis]

I can't blame him! Being a VA seems like a lot of fun. I'd love to do it, honestly.

Also holy cow, I remember that cartoon. What a blast from the past.

[drehnifusbahi]

It does seem like fun, doesn't it?

Right? I used to have an episode on tape when I was little - the one where Hook fakes his own death purely to dick with the kids.
