Shrek 5 Plot Prediction

So in Shrek 5, I want Pestilence, or another character who’s the same species as Death, to appear. Maybe even a half primordial entity, the name for Death’s species I came up with, appear.

Maybe Pestilence appears as a more neutral figure who decides to help Shrek’s children and maybe Donkey’s son. Maybe the reason why he’s helping them is because he’s bored, or has some secret ulterior motives.

Maybe have somebody who’s half primadorial entity and half mortal appear. Everybody thinks Felicia is gonna be this quirky rebellious girl, so maybe have this character be a foil to her. Maybe she’s super obedient and calm.

Sry, I just hope Shrek 5 is good and dives deeper into how Death’s kind function.

Are you forgetting that Annabelle is canonically a demon which means she is immortal and would be older than Chucky?

Chucky: that doesn't count!

oh my god, bring in the wholesome dad chucky and Caroline content

This is a Caroline and Chucky fic, because I’ve never really written about her before. Is it canon? I don’t really know, it could be. That’s up to your personal preference.

————————————————————-

Chucky had always wanted a daughter. When he played House in the school playground as a child, he’d always pretend that the make-believe family’s ‘baby’ was a girl, despite insisting to anyone who would listen that he wanted a son.

He had no clue why he wanted a little girl, perhaps it was some hidden nurturing instinct that he’d tried to repress? Or perhaps it was just some strange obsession? It wasn’t quite clear, but he’d always told himself that when he grew up, he would have a daughter.

When he first met Tiffany, he was convinced that they could start a family together. One day when they were cuddling together on a hotel bed next to a person they’d murdered, he shyly confessed that he wanted to name his daughter Charlotte. Tiffany’s response to this was going to the pet store and finding the biggest, hairiest spider she could. She presented it to Chucky in a tank with a handwritten label that said:

“Hi Daddy, I’m Charlotte!”

It was when he met Sarah that Chucky truly thought he was going to have a family. Barbara Pierce was around three at the time, and Chucky can still remember how she’d scream every time he came near her, and how her mother would yell at him for ‘playing too roughly’ (although Chucky didn’t think that a few light bruises when play-fighting were all that bad).  

He thought that when he killed Sarah and stabbed Barbara’s eye out his desire for a family would truly be gone. He didn’t even really like his own kids all that much. Did he love them? Of course, all parents should love their kids, was he proud of them for being comfortable enough to live unashamedly as they truly were? Absolutely, but he didn’t really know them, so he had no reason to genuinely like them.

Yes, the deaths of most of the Pierce family should have put his wish for a family to bed, but if that were the case, how was Chucky meant to explain Caroline Cross?

————————————————————-

At first, he didn’t really take notice of little Caroline. She was a means to an end - Lexy Cross’s end, that was. Chucky usually tried to avoid getting attached to the kids he was forced to live with, because he’d either go crazy and kill them or be unable to leave them.

In truth, Caroline was a pretty quiet kid. Her saving grace, amongst other things, was that she never played rough with her dolls. She could concoct elaborate fantasy stories that Chucky actually ended up really enjoying whenever he was ‘forced’ to play with her.

He didn’t like her sister, and he didn’t like her parents, but Caroline herself was… okay. She certainly had a knack for getting what she wanted, a trait that Chucky definitely admired. It was always nice to see a young person be so…spirited.

What really made him take notice of Caroline however, is one day when the sun was shining bright in the sky. Caroline was lying out on the lawn, holding a magnifying glass. Chucky had no idea why until Caroline pulled him closer and he realised that the little girl was using the magnifying glass and the heat of the sun to burn ants to a crisp. There was a sadistic glee on her face as she did it, and in that moment, Chucky came to a realisation that made his heart stop for a moment. Caroline Cross was just like him.

————————————————————-

With this newfound realisation, Chucky started paying more attention to Caroline, and discovered that the similarities ran deep. They even had the same blood type, a fact that particularly amused him.

But with his more in depth observations about Caroline came the sad realisation that, despite caring for her somewhat, her parents had pretty much neglected her. And so, it usually fell to Chucky to braid her hair, help her with homework, tuck her in at night, even to make sure she brushed her teeth, just like tonight.

As Caroline came skipping out of the bathroom in a unicorn onesie, Chucky was waiting by the door to enquire:

“Did you brush your teeth?”

Caroline nodded in confirmation, and gave him a cheesy grin as if to prove that she’d done it. But there was something… off. Realising this, Chucky asked:

“And did you floss?”

The girl said nothing, but when Chucky pressed further, she looked down at the ground ashamedly and muttered:

“Nobody does.”

Chucky sighed deeply and gently admonished her, saying:

“Caroline, you have to floss your teeth. You ate a lot of candy today, there’s bound to be sugar stuck between your teeth. Go back in there and floss, please.”

Caroline clenched her fists and stamped her feet, protesting:

“No, I’m not gonna do it! How’s it gonna help me?”

Now, Chucky was a very good storyteller, and he’d used this skill several times to put Caroline to sleep. But right now, he realised that he could use this to his advantage in order to make her floss. So, leaning in conspiratorially, he whispered:

“Wanna know a secret? Before I transferred my soul into a doll, I never brushed my teeth, or flossed. Like you, I didn’t see the point. But guess what happened? My teeth started to fall out, there were huge gaps inside my mouth, not to mention the blood and the toothache!”

Caroline winced, and her clenched fists relaxed and fell limp at her sides as her eyes widened in disbelief. Of course, none of this was true. When Chucky was first alive he’d taken great pride in his dental hygiene, but what Caroline didn’t know wouldn’t hurt her. Deciding to combine two important lessons into one, deciding to go with something that was semi-truthful, saying:

“And, I smoked, which made my teeth even worse! Now, I was very unhappy when I had to transfer my soul into a doll, but honestly? I am so grateful, because I have teeth again and don’t need to cram food into a blender in order to eat it. You don’t want to end up like me, right? Looking into the cost of dentures before you’re forty?”

Caroline shook her head rapidly, and Chucky had to suppress a laugh as the girl raced back into the bathroom and began slamming drawers open and shut in search of dental floss.

————————————————————-

It was a quiet day, and Caroline had decided to do some drawing. Chucky was quite busy, but he decided to check in on Caroline and see what she was doodling.

“What are you drawing, Caroline?”

The girl didn’t look up from her work, and simply said:

“A unicorn head.”

Chucky nodded in acknowledgement, and was about to praise her drawing and then walk off when he noticed something:

“Uh, what are you using the red glitter pen for?”

Caroline looked up and smiled slightly at this as she said:

“For the blood coming out of the severed unicorn head!”

Chucky blinked in surprise and asked:

“Can I keep this when you’re done? That’s adorable.”

————————————————————-

It had been an accident, okay? A slip of the tongue, a spur of the moment decision. Chucky didn’t mean to lie to Caroline. What had happened was that Caroline had ran into her room and flopped down onto her bed, sobbing her little heart out. When Chucky asked her what was wrong, the girl choked out the sad story of her mother ignoring her and not coming to her dance recital through thick sobs. 

This angered Chucky, because he’d watched Caroline rehearse in front of her mirror, and she was getting really good. She’d been so excited for her mother to watch her perform, and Michelle hadn’t even had the guts to attend her own child’s recital? That sort of person didn’t deserve to be a parent. 

Now, what Chucky had meant to say was something along the lines of: ‘That woman doesn’t deserve to be a mother’. But a combination of anger on Caroline’s behalf and exhaustion (because it was quite late at night) meant that instead, Chucky blurted out:

“That woman is not your mother.”

Caroline looked up at him in surprise, tears momentarily forgotten in her shock. Chucky had a choice to make now. Did he apologise for the slip of the tongue, or did he double down? On the one hand, it wouldn’t be right to lie to her. But on the other hand… Chucky really liked Caroline. If he played his cards right, he could potentially walk away from this situation with the daughter he’d always wanted. With this new goal in mind, Chucky took a deep breath and continued:

“Your real mother’s called Tiffany Valentine…”

How San Lorenzo Affected Puss

Okay so Puss is probably the most traumatized character in the Shrek franchise, especially if you take taopib’s events into account. In this post, we’re going to explore how San Lorenzo affected Puss mentally.

Why Puss Didn’t Value Any of His Lives

In taopib, Puss used to value all his lives. He even valued death. In one of the episodes, Puss says “Oh reaper, you’ve come to take me? Okay, let me just put on my boots first”. Sure, Puss was still arrogant and impulsive, but my point still stands.

After losing San Lorenzo, Puss took everything for granted. He began to brag about how he laughed at the face of death.

Plus Puss did die in the series finale, but managed to quickly enter his second life thanks to Dulcinea. So it’s no wonder why he grew to disrespect Death.

Why Puss Has Trust Issues

Puss was betrayed by both Uli and Jack, 2 people he genuinely cared about. They both manipulated him and put his friends in danger.

So when Puss reunited with Humpty in the first Pib movie, it’s no wonder why he didn’t trust him and forgive him at first. Puss forgave both Jack and Uli and they both stabbed him in the back.

Why Puss Was So Closed Off Puss let himself be vulnerable and make genuine connections in San Lorenzo, and guess what? He then had to leave San Lorenzo and never return there.

This caused Puss to put on a charismatic hero facade to hide how broken he is. Most people know him and love him as the legend, but never Puss.

This also caused Puss to become more aloof and more distant towards others. While he did socialize with others every now and then, he always held them at an arm’s distance.

It’s probably because he’s afraid of losing everybody just like how he lost San Lorenzo.

(This would probably explain why he was initially rude to Perrito too.)

So this post explains why Puss didn’t value any of his lives, has trust issues, and was so closed off. Kitty probably wasn’t kidding when she said Puss needs therapy, because he had the shittiest life out of all the Shrek characters.

*kicks dirt* why didnt u reblog that from me

Do you have any tips for writing enemies to lovers?

Hi, love!  Thanks for your question and your patience<3  I’m currently writing somethingsimilar to this, so I hope my experience can help you here!

Enemies-to-lovers is a popular trope, but it’s often treatedcarelessly by writers – especially TV/movie writers who rush through thetransition to fit a single movie or episode arc.  There’s nothing worseyou can do in this situation than to rush your arc.  Falling in love isalready a time-consuming plotline – but transitioning from enemies, who arealready shutting each other out, to lovers?  The quicker it happens, theless believable it becomes.

I have a lot of notes on how to write enemies to lovers, sobear with me as I list them out.

Writing Enemies to Lovers: The Basic Ingredients

1. Give them some similar traits.

No matter what, two people can’t fall in love if they don’trelate on some level.  The first step to creating possible love interestsis to find where they’ll connect.  Are they a hero and a villain? Evil and good?  Night and day?  I bet they both love animals. Maybe they’re both way into politics.  Maybe they share a commonenemy.  Maybe they’re both neat freaks or a bit sassy or super gay or lovethe same music.  It can be a few important things or a bunch of superficialthings – just make sure they have something that can tie themtogether.

2. Put them on the same side of something.

When two people are mortal foes, it can be hard for them tosee each other in any other light.  Bringing in a common enemy (ananti-hero, a natural disaster, a person in power), or a common interest (amutual friend, a school play, a moral cause), can land foes on a teamtogether.  This forces them to become aware of each other’s strengths, andto consider (and worry about) each other’s weaknesses.  This is perfectfodder for an eyebrows-raised, “Hey, they don’t suck at this particularthing,” moment.

3. Get them alone.

With other people watching (especiallyfriends/coworkers/allies), little groundwork can be made for your twohate-lovers.  If you get your characters alone together, you’re given abounty of opportunities to bond them, including but not limited to: actualconversations, accidental (or faux-accidental) physical contact, the sneakymoment of checking each other out, etc. etc. etc.  People are differentwhen you get them away from their friends – less extreme, less rowdy, lessunreachable.  If you have to trap your characters in an elevator theold-fashioned way, damn it, you’re the only one who can do it.

4. Let them fight their feelings.

If these two are truly enemies, there isn’t going to be amoment of, “Oh, I like them.  Huh.  Neato.”  Oh, no. There will be internal backlash – they will beat their emotions back with abroom, and deny them to anyone who asks.  There will be extra hatefulglares, more middle fingers, and basically anything they can do to remindthemselves that they don’t like this person.  If you show thisinternal conflict, it both (a) makes the feelings seem real, organic, and (b)creates a more realistic transition from hate to love.

5. Love can sound like hate.

There’s a reason people say indifference is the trueopposite of love.  When your two enemies start to feel things foreach other, this will probably spark a lot of ranting, arguing, anddoor-slamming.  It creates a fixation – you sit there and you stew andyou tell your friends, “Remember when they did thatstupid thing?  Yeah.  Screw them.”  Your friends roll theireyes.  When will you stop talking about this person?  Just kiss themalready.

6. Sexual tension is a powerful tool.

If your characters experience sexual attraction, this is agreat way to accelerate their relationship against their will.  It’s theage-old, “My mind says no but my body says yes,” dilemma.  Yourcharacters can’t stand each other, or the image they have of each other, butthey’re attracted like magnets and can’t shake it.  This can make for somepretty hot – or pretty hilarious – scenes.

7. Give them a moment of horrified realization.

Eventually, the feelings will grow strong enough that one orboth of them will have to sit there, probably on the bathroom floor a littlebit drunk with one sock on, and realize: “I love that f*cker.”  It’llbe a scary moment for them.  It’s not that they haven’t known it – theyjust have yet to accept that it’s something to deal with, until now.  Thiscan be prompted by a dangerous situation, a shared activity, or a failed attemptat another romance – so when they really sit and think about it, theyknow.  Then it becomes a question of either “how do I get rid of this?”or “how do I pursue this?”.

8. Try their hand at flirting.

Whether one or both characters have come to accept theirfeelings, someone’s gotta start flirting.  A glancing touch across thearm; a small comment that could kind of be construed as amicable; a lingeringglance; that first peek at their enemy’s smile.  Something cute and quickand immediately followed by an existential crisis will do in a pinch. Without this water-testing, readers won’t have any image of what thisrelationship will look like – and if it can succeed.

9. Craft the perfect kiss/hug/confession.

When the time is right, create an undeniable display ofattraction to transition into a new phase of their relationship:the “welp-we-both-like-each-other” phase, which comes right beforethe “we-decided-to-(stay-platonic/start-romancin’)” phase.  The BigKiss/Confession is the most iconic climactic love scene, in which the twocharacters take a chance and become vulnerable with each other – and kiss, orsay, “I love you,” or do anything that can’t be construed in any otherway.  Want to extend the drama?  Interrupt them, or have it beone-sided, or let it turn into a fight until they decide, “Forget it, thiswas stupid.”  Readers will swoon.

10. Finish up with an awkward adjustment period.

If and when your characters do enter a relationship, makesure it’s a little tentative at the beginning, to keep it realistic.  Yourcharacters have made a huge shift in their dynamic – there will be somelingering arguments and love-hate, and maybe a bit of discomfort going publicwith their romance.  Then come the usual growing pains of a new relationshipgetting serious – figuring out how to navigate each other’s flaws, learning tobe open with their feelings, dealing with unresolved fights from before theirrelationship.  It won’t be perfect right away.  That’s the beauty of it.

I hope this helps you, love!  I adore love-haterelationships, and I hope you enjoy crafting your own enemies-to-lovers as muchas we’ll all love reading them :)  Good luck!
