yeah okay. I am. slightly tipsy teehee.
Title: Tenna "Commfort" Media Thoughts "First off, I'm using comfort and favorite semi interchangeably, as we often find comfort in our favorite things, and our favorite things bring us comfort. (#imdeep /j)" Subheading 1: Pre Big Shot: Old Holywood Classics I'm an ascriber to the headcanon that Tenna was a wedding/house warming gift to Toriel and Asgore. As such, he is an older model of CRT. At this point in Tenna's stardom, he's still up and coming. Still full of hope and light, trying to prove himself to be worthy of the Lighter's attention. What's a better way to prove himself than to study past Lighter actors of yore? Plus, I also think Toriel is a general fan of old Hollywood and Asgore is a fan of old Westerns. Connection to not only his job, but to the Lighters he lives for. That whole era brings a sense of wonder and comfort to the little TV. Subheading 2: Big Shot: Romcoms "At this point, Kris and Azriel have been introduced to the family. There's some tension between Asgore and Toriel, and all appears fine. In TV World, Tenna has signed on a new business partner... maybe more? This meet cute, feel good, happy times would be reflected in the romantic comedy genre. The guy gets the girl, they have chemistry and tension, and maybe Tenna tries to get Spamton with some of these really cheesy moves (Spamton is, against his better judgement, very into it). Selfishly, I think this also sets up for cute movie night dates of Tenna showing his faves (Mama Mia is up there. Trust.) and Spamton going, 'Really that's where you got that line?'" Subheading 3: Post Big Shot but Pre Ch3: kids shows, like what Kris and Azriel would have watched "His partner left him, Asgore and Toriel are divorced, Azriel is leaving for college, things are changing. And fast. Tenna, being himself, is not extremely keen on all this change. Combined with losing a members of his family, there's this desire to revert. This nostalgia that permeates Tenna's view with rose-tinted glasses. Even if Deltarune takes place in 202X, I'd be willing to bet Toriel is a certified library card carrier and cable is expensive. PBS shows, like Sesame Street, Arthur and Fetch with Ruff Ruffman, and others on DVD like Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. " Subheading 4: Post Ch3: Any Movie with a Second Chance Romance "Tenna is in his forgiveness arc. Forgiveness both internally and externally. Hankering back to the Big Shot era, but necessarily the same. Tenna will always be a hopeless romantic to me so he's still into romcoms, but now with the added layer of forgiveness. This could also but up against second chance Spamtenna, also harkening back to the wooing Spamton with lines from the movies. "
