Hey Arnold - Blog Posts

My favorite Noncanon Hey Arnold ship wooo! It's been so long since I've seen new fanart of this ship. X3

The Petersons

I ADORABLE THIS SHIP (i do ship lila with Sid but Stinky and her make more sense)

The kids name Daisy

@tapioca-puddin made the cover of the playlist. I miss doing stuff with my oc, so I decided to make a playlist for her and the Debmund ship. From "Dream Away" to "Dreamy Night" is songs just about Debora while the rest is about the Debmund relationship from both povs (though mostly from Debora). From "Ok" to "I Like U" is Debora trying out a different relationship but it not working out fast (though Ok is from Edmund's pov). XD I tried to put it in the most accurate story order possible, but it might change slightly over time. I also might add more songs too. Here are songs I like for the playlist as well but weren't on Spotify.

I would as these two somewhere before "Sunshine of Your Smile" in the just Debora section.

I would have put this song before "As Long as You Wait for Me". Anyway, that's all for now. Hope you enjoy the playlist even if you don't give a flying flip about my oc or Hey Arnold. I hope you'll be able to keep up when I inevitably add more songs to the list and this post. lol

This is such a loaded question. I listen to so many songs, it's so hard to pick 5 out of hundreds I have saved. Ya know what, I'm already going to break the rules by not tagging anybody, so I'll just pick songs that fit my Hey Arnold oc, Debora or the Debmund ship (at least the version that's in my spinoff of CallMeNettie's Hey Arnold fan fic series). It's been a while since I did anything with her and I want to remedy that. It's going to alienate my new Bob's Burgers followers but oh well. Suffice - Mxmtoon I've Been Thinking - Lily Williams Dream Away - Paul Williams You're the One I Want - JJ Heller I Wasn't Made to Be in Love - Sophia James

Debora is an anxious, sad character so yeah, a lot of songs to reflect that. The story does have happy moments and a happy ending though. XD

I won't link the fic though because it's been a while since I updated that story and it wouldn't be fair to share a story that has been on a very long hiatus. Anyway, hope you like the songs regardless. I tag no one because I feel like it but feel free to whoever wants to share songs as well.

(making a new post for this tag game bc the post was already super long, hope that's okay lol)

when you see this, post 5 songs you actually listen to and tag 10 of your favorite followers/mutuals!! i was tagged by @kazs-scheming-face; thanks for tagging me! :)

Hey, it's that sweet potato/I yam meme!

Unfortunately, Edmund got distracted and forgot the first part of the meme and bought this shirt instead. Debora doesn't seem to mind though.

Mission Failed Successfully?!

I wanted to do this for a while but I didn't want to follow the meme exactly. It was the perfect opportunity to reference what both their heads shapes look like in one meme. I almost went with a more crass, jalapeno shirt option. I decided to go more wholesome because I didn't want to draw Debora looking like she wanted to kill Edmund (for example, if I did the "I'm always jalapeno business" it would either imply Deb is a hussy or an angry/annoying witch).

Two shirts that have nothing to do with each other yet still somehow make it work. Fits the Debmund perfectly in my opinion.

Here's that part two I mentioned in my last post! Edmund and Debora probably have more they move around between the seasons, but for now, I just wanted to do the ones that mattered. I tried to pinpoint the chapters for the outfits I could.

I couldn't do all because some probably won't ever appear in Nettie's story and will have to wait for the adult attire to appear in my spin-off.

Debora wears the purple blouse when she meets the others at the bar-b-que in CallMeNettie's story, "As Time Goes By" for sure. https://archiveofourown.org/works/20655731/chapters/49052477 Debora and Edmund's nightwear are both a reference to a Hey Arnold comic strip that had Harold claiming to read a Manly Man comic when in reality he was reading a Funny Bunny comic. Edmund owns a comic book store in Nettie's story so it's only fitting they would both wear something comic-themed (it's also hilarious to see Edmund wear dorky, superhero undies XD). https://heyarnold.fandom.com/wiki/Comics/Collection_Confusion

I think out of all of the attire, I think I'm most proud of the last two dresses. Debora looks so pretty in both of them. I really wanted to update Debora's dress for Nettie's series because the one I had for her would have had complications. Edmund looks great as a Viking groom too. He's kind of basic with the sweater vest get up but it works in story because Debora loves guys in sweater vests.

I made these rings a while ago, but I didn't have an excuse to post them here until now. I figured it would have been lame to post something with just rings rolled out like a banner so now it fits neatly with the "As Time Goes By" and "The Legend of Punch Girl" Debbie and Eddie attire list.

Thank you for reading this far and here's hoping that I'll actually get to work on my story now. lol P.S. I say bonus for the lingerie Debora because I only wanted to post it on here because I didn't feel comfortable posting it anywhere else. I mean, it's doll anatomy, but still.

Not too fond of how I titled it. Nonetheless here it is! Honestly, I have two reasons as to why I made this.

1. I wanted to update Adult Debora's body type to be a bit chubby and turn her from a rectangle-shaped body to a pear-shaped body.

2. I felt like drawing Renata, Jackie, Wolfgang, Renata, and Edmund for CallMeNettie from fanfiction/AO3 so people could have some visual representation of what they look like in her "Slice of Life" series.

I also added Lorenzo and Siobhan into the image because they will eventually be relevant in my own spinoff for Nettie's story (more so Siobhan than Lorenzo) and I wanted to make an adult design for them for later.

Anyway, I hope you like the designs. There's going to be a part two to this that is just going to be me designing Debmund outfits that were either mentioned in Nettie's story or will be a thing eventually in my own story.

P.S. Hucksley is my headcanon last name for Edmund. It's not canon in Nettie's story yet but she gave me permission to use this last name in the spinoff whenever I get to it.

Created this for CallMeNettie's story, "As Time Goes By". Debora is going on a camping trip starting chapter 45 and I wanted to create what I imagine she would wear during the trip. I included a bit of Edmund too to show a bit of his adult form.

Edmund is certainly the type to go sleeveless to show off his pecks during a camping trip. Debora on the other hand wants to show the least skin as possible while still not being completely hot over it. Gotta be prepared for bugs somehow.

A Spinoff of CallMeNettie's "Slice of Life" series come to join in and read about that one OC that appeared in Nettie's sequel story, "As Time Goes By". In this story, you will see the exact event of what happened at the dance, what happened after for the poor girl, and maybe even catch a glimpse of what Helga, Arnold, and the rest were doing around that time every now and then.

First piece submitted for me this year! I wanted to do Debmund piece with the pair cosplaying as other pairs, whether canon or not that inspired them. I do feel while I most likely have some that are left out whether intentionally or not, these are the ones I feel had the most important impact on the process I had with these characters. My intent was to one, have fun with the cosplay aspect of it and two, to provide something to the people that like my character. I want to make a fanfiction with my character in it someday and finally provide closure for some people. Until then though, this is just something to show my thought process as I developed the ship in my headspace over the years. I also finally have closure on making Harold and Rhonda as Ares and Aphrodite! Woo, that was a clear connection that I wanted to do for so long.

I don't know if you still are doing requests. Would you be willing to do sketches of Wolfgang and Edmund? I just kind of want to see them either being jerks to kids off screen, jerks to each other, or maybe just make have Wolfgang find Edmund in his King Rules costume and Edmund being all like, "I can explain!" To Wolfgang. Thank you for your time and just have fun with it with whatever you choose if you do choose. XD

‘The Rescue’ a short comic

Wolfgang messed with the wrong one.

Enjoy!

Hooray! I finally got this out. I have been wanting to update and say that I was redesigning Debora's parents and also making her an orphan that got adopted in the process. So in short, I plan to retcon the backstory I have for Debora and will give her a new one. I was inspired a bit by Anne of Green Gables to make Debbie an orphan. Enough about Debora though here's some info about the parents before I one day actually go into greater details on backstory stuff. Zayden is an Irish/Welsh/Italian man that can play the Welsh triple harp and is a good cook. Amalie is a Swinomish/Bitterroot Salish/Black woman that met Zayden when she was abroad in Italy for college. I think I want her to be a special ed teacher for a time until she does something else, but I honestly am still workshopping that one and hopefully can think of something a bit more extravagant of a career for her. Still trying to figure out if I want Zayden to be a cook in a restaurant or he just happens to be good at cooking and does something else for money. Now for the bio parents. To make it short, they're both dead and it impacted Debora greatly, more so her mother's death. Debora doesn't have the best feelings for her bio dad as shown with the x on the photo. Sorry, I couldn't elaborate more on them, but hopefully, I can go more into detail one of these days. As for the story that my character is in, "As Time Goes By". Since that is an au version of Debora, that story would still use the old version of Debora's parents. Just makes things easier since her parents in that story are basically a more tame version of her bio parents anyway. Anyway, that's all. I hope you like the designs and I hope to develop all of them more in the future.

Just a fun cosplay idea I wanted to do. I made them adults in the image because it felt right. Edmund is basically a Viking, werewolf woodcutter and Debora is an Irish, little, red, riding hood leanan sidhe (for context, a leanan sidhe is an Irish fairy that feeds on the life force of artists in exchange for being a muse). I either wanted to make Debora's costume a leanan sidhe or vampire, I chose the former because I like that it was vampiric in nature but not a full on vampire. I liked the description fit Debora's character more than a vampire would. Anyway, Hope you like what you see. P.S. Edmund's muscles are fake and it's just stuffing. Adult Edmund would never be that buff in my book and would only have muffin tops. XD

I had this made weeks ago. I had to wait to submit it though because this particular drawing is connected to a thing my character is going to do in Nettie's story, "As Time Goes By". Here's the story link https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13388222/1/As-Time-Goes-By and here's the chapter for the context of the image. https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13388222/37/As-Time-Goes-By I hope you find it as cute as I do! X3

just wanted to make some cute art while on break. I been wanting to draw my character more in her wedding dress because it's adorable. This is also a bit of an update I suppose because I changed the dress from white to blue because in Irish wedding traditions the dress is usually blue. I thought that was cool and wanted to do it. I added Edmund in an orange suit for the sake of a silly "Dumb and Dumber" reference. Either way, it's cute regardless and I'm just happy that I finally updated the bouquet for Debora. The flower set up is so much cuter than just 3 stargazer lilies. Anyway, I hope you all like it as much as I do :3.

Just linking the other animatic to go full circle with my other reblog.

telling your dad that you're going on a date is the EASY part

telling your dad who it is that you're going on a date WITH is the HARD PART

((it's not entirely done!!))

Spec worked hard on this animatic and this one as well https://gay-arnold.tumblr.com/post/644033218025308160/telling-your-dad-that-youre-going-on-a-date-is (this is basically a part 2, but it can be seen as its own thing as well since they don’t immediately connect with each other).

go baby go :)

I've been wanting to make teen versions of the PS118 gang for a while and it's only fitting that I start with Helga. I can't promise when I'll do the rest, but I feel I'm off to a good start though. Hope you like her and her pink jeans! X3

Recently, I wanted to use my fan character's hair's specific complementary color for a palette. So I put her in another, new dress. I decided to make it proposal themed because I just love making cute things. So yeah, just another dress to add to Deb's alternate clothes pile. XD

https://www.instagram.com/p/CGgaBzip_n6/ Something I made awhile ago for Craig Bartlett’s birthday in a big collab you can find in the link.

We’re still accepting your questions to Craig Bartlett for the 2020 #heyarnold Anniversary Show!

Please email askcraig2020@arunmehta.co.uk!

Deadline is the 26th September.

Just felt like drawing something cute with my fancharacter and fankids. I also decided to give one of my fankids a unibrow because the guy I headcanoned to Edmund’s dad has one. It’s not much, but it’s cute and it makes me smile. Edmund belongs to Craig Bartlett and the rest belong to me.

Just an Excuse to Show Debora’s and Edmund’s Headcanon Eye Color

A few days ago, I decided to look through Hey Arnold background characters to see if I can find any adults that could be good candidates for parents for Edmund. I found one (the guy on the right) and I designed the other one myself. I decided to look through bg characters in the first place because I honestly had nothing to go with what I wanted Edmund’s folks to be. Now that I have at least one character from the background I chose, I’m able to build a backstory off from that whenever I need them.

Plus, I find it amusing Edmund’s pop being a big, buff, security guard. I know it’s basically a very common trope, but I still think it fits and amusing.

The guy on the right is the security guard in “Pre-Teen Scream”.

Supplement Image to the Debora Age Chart: Alt. Outfits for Debora:

Just something I wanted to make because I wanted to see my character in cute dresses. I plan to add more in the future though. I don’t know how long said future will be, only time will tell. Anyway, I hope you like what I have now regardless.

Here’s the list of what the clothes are intended for from left to right.

1. Campfires Lass:

2. Plain dress for church or minor party events

3. Swimsuit

4. Prom/Formal dress

5. Wedding Dress

6. Maternity Dress 

7. Pajamas 

8. Private School

9. Date Dress

10: DND Costume

8/1/2020

I added the maternity dress, edited her wedding dress, and changed her hair color.

8/18/2020

I added pajamas, a private school outfit, a date gown, and a DnD costume.

10/27/2020

I changed Debora's formal/prom dress to something I would be more proud off.

https://twitter.com/FarkledAgain More gifts of my fancharacter, Debora from the wonderful Leskuh!

The cute girl in the green/blue shirt is Leskuh’s character, Leah. Edmund belongs to Craig Bartlett/Nickelodeon. Why does Leskuh always have to make older Edmund such a hunk!? XD

Leskuh and I both have a weakness for blonde boys I suppose. XD

I just felt like making some for sketches of one of my fave HA ocxfc ships. Some of the poses are saucier than I usually do, but I'm satisfied with them. I just love drawing these two dorks infatuated with each other, even if it will never be a canon pair. Oh well, it's canon in my heart! XD

By the way, the farthest left one and the other Debora with the same attire is the outfit I plan for to have in her 17-18 year old age. Hopefully, I get around to doing her actual, color model soon.

This is probably as spicy as I go when it comes to posing and stuff. This isn’t the type of poses I normally do and just wanted to experiment. I hope you like it regardless.

Anyway, Edmund belongs to Craig Bartlett and Nickelodeon while Debora belongs to me.

That’s fine it’s just a headcanon I had for a while for Edmund to give him more development as a character. This isn’t just some random diagnosis just because. I do have some reasoning for my headcanon. It mostly comes from “Mudbowl” and “Friday the 13th”. In both episodes he is shown to be easily distracted. Out of all the bullies they show in the football game, Edmund seems to be the one they show to be the most confused out of all them with Arnold’s, in Helga’s words “loopy plays” as they make it a point to show Wolfgang slamming Edmund to the ground (almost twice until Phoebe intervened). It’s not just in the game though, earlier on in the episode he’s distracted at copying Wolfgang by pointing at the fourth graders until Wolfgang has to literally drag out of the scene by the collar. In “Friday the 13th” he is shown to be distracted twice when chewing gum, not noticing Wolfgang’s annoyance of him supporting Gerald’s sly, dance moves or not immediately laughing at his “clever” joke.

ADD could possibly, maybe explain his apathy towards Wolfgang near the end of the episode, being easily bored of the situation since we found out earlier in the episode he’s not superstitious (still wasn’t cool of him to not take his friend’s ridiculous fear seriously though).

This part is more speculation than the rest, but I like to think that him playing Kings Rule shows he has some creativity in that mind of his. ADD people are usually known for their out of the box thinking. He was the one the planted the idea in Wolfgang’s mind that started the bet in “Chocolate Boy” in the first place

There’s also that “laugh and agree” moment in the “Grand Prix episode, but I can’t tell if that was him daydreaming/distracted or just not caring to kiss up to Wolfgang until he was told to? So, I don’t bother counting that.

In the end, I’m aware that most of this could just come down to he’s just an idiot and nothing more to it. I just wanted to add something that doesn’t just pin him to being dumb because that’s boring. Though it’s definitely reassuring to know that you actually know somebody in your life that could give you that realistic perspective on things. Thank you for your time, even your “none answer” still means something to me. 

Hey, I wanted to talk about Edmund again because why not. I've talked about this before with other people, but I wanted to ask you since you were open to more Edmund asks. Anyway, I headcanon that Edmund has ADD. Do you think that makes sense with the limited screen time he has had or do you think he has something else?

I haven’t seen any evidence to ADD. My mom has ADD and it was... an experience, growing up with someone who wanders off at random and has difficulty holding conversations or listening at all. I can’t remember any instances where Edmund seemed easily distractible, but maybe I’m wrong. I’d need some examples for why you hold that headcanon. 

Tbh, I don’t really think a lot about what kind of disorders characters have unless it’s glaringly apparent there’s something going on with them and/or it reminds me of something I’ve already seen. Like when my friend said Arnie is autistic, everything just kinda lined up in my head and suddenly made sense and it’s always cool when that happens with a character. Sid has anxiety and OCD, Miriam’s of course depressed, I’ve always headcanoned Arnold as having ADD actually. But it doesn’t happen often that I diagnose characters. I focus more on behaviors and the experiences that might have inspired those behaviors. That's just more enjoyable to me. Sorry that’s kind of a boring none-answer, lmao. 

This is just some new Hey Arnold fancharacters that I had in mind to create for a while and decided to do it now. Basically these are just people that 18-year-old Debora makes friends with when she goes to art school. Jaeli is a girl with vitiligo. She's not the nicest person to be around at first, but she truly is a good person once she sees that you mean well. She draws as a hobby, but that doesn't stop her from trying to be the best in class. Haku is one of the art models for the class and Jaeli's boyfriend. He's just a pretty chill, happy, Filipino guy and isn't afraid to show off his body for an anatomy class. Anyway, thanks for checking this pic out and hope you think they look cool.
