October has come, and that means pumpkins for Halloween. Speaking of pumpkins, here's my take of Jack Pumpkinhead.

I am a nerd with opinions about video game lore.

Here is my hottest lore take: Trying to make a “canon timeline” for The Legend of Zelda is a fool’s errand. Yes, I know there is an official lore timeline in a collector book out there. Still foolish.

Zelda Wiki was so adverse to the Zelda's many multiple spin-offs and tie-in media in the name of "English" canon that it's only recently that we've discovered many story beats and elements in modern Zelda stemming from Zelda manga.

Meanwhile, Super Mario Wiki abandons canon tier and it's superior.

Zelda Wiki is should not be taken as a serious source. More of a guidebook at best, but never a serious source.

Why? Because I know what site was before 2011. It was literally just a more professional looking fan site that hosted many Zelda timeline theories that ends up becoming untrue.
rexshadao.bsky.social
One of the biggest problems I've encountered with Zelda fans is that many still insist on canon being the same as continuity. That's not how canon works.

Canon literally means to Nintendo "These works are official to us".

Lilac and Tiffany

I sketched up an interesting looking pose a while ago so I thought to develop it to fit these two

Some old 2018 artwork of the first "Ancienverse" Pokemon AU fanfiction by #Epicocity: "Love in the Time of Teamwork."
This used to been on DeviantArt before I deleted my account there.

My illustration of the ending part of "Love in the Time of Teamwork" Chapter 7: A Step.
Pencils first, then inks and ink wash. This was the first fan illustration I made for Epicocity's story. This is set in the middle of Chapter 10: An Evening.

2D digital picture of Dorothy Gale and Ozma kneeling on the ground and Dorothy kissing Ozma on the cheek. Dorothy has both eyes closed and Ozma has one eye closed on the side Dorothy is kissing her and is smiling.

He's incompetent and stupid. I would honestly not worry as much given how much free publicity he gave to Jimmy Kimmel and made the talk host more popular than ever before.

Is that all you do?

Just blame Democrats instead of the obvious GOP in charge?

There is only one legitimate problem here, which is the people seeing Democrats as babysitters. I suggest threatening to cut off the red states from blue state money and see how many will squirm.

Meet Bill or Billina from the #LandOfOz. She doesn't actually mind if which name you choose so long as you know it means HER. She's the yellow hen who accompanies Dorothy Gale to the Land of Ev in the third book. Don't tell the Nome King btw.

Continuing on from Ozma, here's Dorothy Gale's updated model sheets for 2025. To add a little variance to Dorothy's appearance, one is for her first visit to Oz. The second is her return to Oz. No magic belt, that's for her princess outfit.

Because two votes is pathetic for the GOP.

It would not fly in any serious matter.

Unless you make it matter.

And nobody should be baited to be stuck in the Senate out of fear that some moronic Republican decides to do a troll vote and you need to counter vote.

I'm looking at you, Zelda Timeline and Mario Timeline. You're the reason why I'm writing this down about Canon and Continuity.

This leads to really terrible, convoluted timeline theories that either make no sense or would be retconned out of existence in the near future. And then you see fans twist themselves into knots justifying these issues and also ignore everything else the franchises have to offer. It's rather sad.
rexshadao.bsky.social
Which worked for a time, but leads to issues when applied to larger franchises where stories are written by multiple writers and the goal is to make money. Thus fans use continuity to deem what's canon and not, and some fans became the official writers for these franchises.

That's a bad mindset.
rexshadao.bsky.social
The reason why people think Canon=Continuity is due to the fact that before the Internet, fanfiction looked as convincing as the real deal in terms of books. Sherlock Holmes was infamous for that. So was Star Trek.

So it became necessary to distinguish works by the original creator from fanfiction.
