i like to imagine in their youth peter would end up dragging kraglin into all sorts of trouble and in turn kraglin would give him crap for not being able to grow a proper beard
i’m like a romanceable npc if you compliment me once per day for a week straight you unlock the dialogue option to marry me
i was going to respond with “i’m this but instead of dating i adopt you and bake for you” and then it occurred to me how cool it would be if there was a game with romanceable characters except instead of romance it’s family
find the sad elf’s lost puppy and she can become your sister
adopt six orphans
just keep calling the grizzled old fighter ‘dad’ until he starts answering to it out of sheer exhausted resignation
So this is the game Peter Quill patterned his life after!
mmMM kinda tempted to color this, but I always like my sketches better
father-son portrait tho
“I thought Yondu was your father.”
“What?”
“We’ve been together this whole time, and you thought Yondu was my actual blood relative?!”
“You look exactly alike!”
I am very much here for the idea that Drax can tell because SO MANY of Peter’s mannerisms come directly from Yondu
shit-eating grin included
So am I! And I mean, if you tweak color, age, and hairiness, they actually do look very alike. Like, Pratt is about 35, if I remember right, during GOTG1–and Quill is abducted age eight in 1988, so he’s probably within a year or two of that age.
Here’s Michael J. Rooker age 31:
via Portrait of a Serial Killer.
Here’s a clean-shaven Chris Pratt having hair glued to his chin in a Yondu-esque fashion, age 35:
Here’s Rooker again, age 39:
and Pratt again, age 38.
It’s not even just the mannerisms–they genuinely do resemble each other in facial structure and bone structure! And then you get places where they totally do steal mannerisms, like little sarcastic gestures and the way they deal with idiots and just–
they are surprisingly similar, no wonder Drax got confused!
Ok but consider this: Quill has to go undercover or whatever, and for some reason decides to disguise himself as a Centaurian. He looks into the mirror after he’s been painted blue, and has a bit of a breakdown because suddenly he does look like Yondu.
Bonus: Stakar sees him in his Centaurian disguise, and the look coupled with the attitude and mannerisms Quill’s picked up from Yondu makes Stakar have a bit of a breakdown, too.
OH NO
now I kinda wanna draw that…
GOOD POST especially keigan’s contributions because you made me lip-wibble at 6:24 in the morning
Everyone in Infinity Wars gonna be complaining about how hard these last few years have been for them until Thor rolls up with no hair, no hammer, and one eye.
Don’t forget “my planet had to be destroyed to keep my sister from killing like the whole universe so now me and all my people are refugees. But hey, Loki’s back, that’s good news!”
Peter(raises his hand in the back): “…My homecoming date‘s dad turned out to be my arch nemesis and a building fell on me!“
Thor (smiles and gives a thumbs-up): “Good for you! (aside, to Tony)…Who is that person? Do we know him or did he just show up?”
Peter Quill: [is literally just in the corner, sobbing.]
