Friday DE: Early edition

[bjornwilde]

I saw this earlier this week and almost used it instead of Monday's topic.

From cute_bruiser :
If you were going to race- and/or genderbend your pup, who would you choose as their PB?

For instance, a female Sam (necessary_child ) would be Audrey Tautou.

I know who would play the Master of Ceremonies because she already did in a Boston production of Cabaret: Amanda Palmer. And here's a video of her performing Mein Herr at a Dresden Dolls concert.

The comment form is doing annoying things and has eaten my response twice, but the response was basically "two of my pups don't have PBs and for the third I wouldn't know where to look". (Aradia could have one if I went looking. Bastion probably never will.) Which is disappointing, because I like the concept of this DE, it just doesn't work for the roster of pups I actually have.

This is one of those topics I always find intriguing but then never have any actual ideas for. I'd love anyone's thoughts. A lot of mine are tricky because they're from books to begin with.

Ahsaok: Well, if I were to gender bend her, I'd have to use a male togruta but I'd likely pick from fan art as I don't like the lighting from KotOR and I'd need a younger guy so the montrails won't be as huge as the ones show in Kidnapped. While I do appreciate the Ahsoka as human fanart I've seen, I keep hitting a wall when I image player her as human. Still, I'd use Rosario Dawson if I ever go there (and I am so on board for Dawson as Ahsoka if she ever shows up in a live action movie).

Sabine: I'd have to find a Philippine teenaged male, as that's how I see her features. I could maybe go with Japanese. No clue as to whom to use though. As to ethnic swaps, I refuse to do this for characters that come from ethnicities that don't get much representation, sorry.

Hank: Gender swap, I'd use Naomi Watts from Tank Girl. I don't have any idea whom I'd use for a furry fem Beast, though I have seen at least one person cosplaying it. For a ethnic swap, I'd likely look for someone South Asian...not sure why.

Viv: For a male Viv, I'd just use her twin brother, Vin. For an organic version, I'd like go with Zendaya.

Sam: For femSam, I've seen people go with Samira Wiley, who works pretty well. I'd be open to suggestions though. For the ethnic swap, just like Sabine, I won't do this for under represented ethnicities.

Danny: Fem Danny...how about Eliza Taylor? As for ethnic swap, I once would've gone with Lewis Tam but he's always doing the pouty duck lips, but am open to anyone Asian or mixed Asian.

Tybalt: Fem Tybalt would have to be Stephanie Beatriz. For ethnic swap, Jesse Williams is tempting, but so is Naveen Andrews and Antonia Banderas, or Luke Pasqualino or Santiago Cabrera. Again, open for suggestions.

That one is... really hard for Cecil because yep, he looks like that. Or that. Or possibly that option. Or... yeah. We know he's not short, he's not tall, he's not thin, he's not fat, and he has eyes that look completely different from Kevin's. (thank goodness)

I have three personal favorites, but I've seen at least ten options in fanfic alone, COMPLETELY disregarding any headcanon as to gender/sexuality.

I'm 99.9% sure he's not a corgi. Though I've seen that fanart. It's cute.

EDIT: On a side note? Knowing about Kevin makes 're: Your Brains' a MUCH MORE TERRIFYING SONG BECAUSE IT'S NOT ZOMBIES, ITS STREX. RUN BOB, RUN!!

Amy Nelson (Fischbach’s girlfriend) dyed her hair pink and dressed up as Warfstache once, and it was adorable. Of course, I can’t find any social media posts with the pictures now, but that’s what I’d go with.

For this fella and genderbending, I'm going with Charlotte Gainsbourg.
