☑ Acknowledge the other party was hurt, and they’re right to feel that way. ☑ Acknowledge your wrongdoing without trying to justify your actions. ☑ Express that you want to make things right with them when they’re ready. ☑ Actually say “sorry” for the terrible thing you did. ☑ Immediately depart to clean your mentor’s castle of wet cake batter and spiders.
“never use this word because it’s common, instead use all of these things that i’ll call synonyms even though they carry different connotations and will change the meaning of your dialogue if you use them” — very bad and unfortunately very common writing advice
“Do you want this sandwich?” she elaborated, acquiring the sandwich from her rucksack with a set of fingers.
His visage was set aflame with a smile. “Sure,” he postulated.
*Johnny Marks, who wrote the original “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer” song, also wrote the songs and score for the special.
*Producer of the special Arthur Rakin Jr. was able to make a deal with Johnny Marks to turn the song into a special because they happened to be neighbors.
*The voice of Hermey the Elf, Paul Soles was also the voice of Spider-Man in the 1967 cartoon series of the same name, thus making him the first actor to portray the web slinging hero.
*One question about the special often asked by viewers is what exactly made the girl doll a misfit as nothing appears to be wrong with her. According to producer Arthur Rankin Jr. “she had psychiatric problems.”
*Salt was used for some of the “splashing” effects (salt might have been also used for the snow but I’m not completely sure about this).
*While the Bumble appears gigantic in the special, the actual puppet used for him is around the same size as the rest of the characters. The reason why is creating a larger puppet that would be in scale with the regular characters would be too complex and too expensive to do. Thus whenever the rest of the characters are seen with Bumble on screen, smaller, less detailed versions of the characters are used (this is why none of them have mouth movements in those scenes).
*The Bumbles legs were the only parts of the character made in full scale to be used in certain scenes, (one of them can be seen towards the left in the second pic shown below).
*While bigger and smaller versions of the characters were made for certain scenes the same can’t be said for the sets. Compare these next two screenshots and it looks like Yukon Cornelius has drastically grown in size.
*While the special was written and mostly designed in America, the voice cast was almost entirely Canadian, and the puppet building and the animation was done in Japan (which technically makes Rudolph an anime XD).
Also fun fact: At least according to the Public Domain Superheroes Wiki, this special is actually public domain due to them royally fucking up the copyright, though Rudolph is still under lock and key thanks to being created before!
But the elements original to the special, those are all PD!
Yukon Cornelius, Bumble, Hermey the Elf, and Head “WHY WEREN’T YOU AT ELF PRACTICE” Elf are public domain and up for grabs people!
concept: Loki dies in Infinity War, and Thors like “lmfao yeah right”
time passes, but still, hes faked his death longer. a memorial is put up, songs are sung, Thor still wont believe it. as the years pass, he stops eyeing anyone acting out of character suspiciously, forgets how long its been since he expects to see him when the battle is raging.
one day, when he’s as old and grey as his father, he does what he never thought he would do; he brings a tribute to Lokis’s memorial. its then he finally understands that he’s gone. that that familiar presence was just his love for his brother, and that he supposes in a way, he really didn’t leave hi–
and then the monument transforms into Loki and hes like mblerg! and stabs him
