What does she see in him?
He's honest with his emotions, no matter how unpleasant they may be
According to the creator Eustace did something really drastic to get Muriel's attention
Huh wonder what he did
got up from his chair
fuck you beat me
dayum
That's true love right there
Busting out his rap skills?
He probably fucks like a beast.
That's what the mask is for.
Maybe but then they never mention children or grandchildren once
He's just like me!
She can fix him.
Her dad was probably a cranky old asshole too so she went with what's familiar.
Mad Mallet skills to defeat evil moles.
She obviously cares about him but I dunno
Lel underrated
There's tons of episodes where Eustace gets tortured or killed and she doesnt seem to particularly mind.
Wrong because she proves she loves him enough times/examples even Courage felt bad for her after something happened to Eustace
a hurt man
He's a asshole but he never fights with her and does what she tells him to do even if he sucks at it.
>What does she see in him?
honestly I assume it's kind of like how Johnny Bravo canonically does actually get chicks(after all he's canonically not a virgin) we just almost never see it happen onscreen because the 9/10 times he fails is where the most humor is(at least for a kid's show, hence why KOTH does the opposite with Boomhauer and we mostly see him succeeding), so in this case we usually only see Eustace be nasty onscreen because that's where most of his humor as a character comes from(particularly how his nastiness usually results in karmic harm and misfortune hitting him)
I wonder if there's fluff fics of Eustace and Muriel just living and having a good old warm time together. I wouldn't bet on it because they're geezers
He was probably nicer when they were younger.
theres a few episodes where he really seems like he cares for her and those meant a lot to kid me, my dad was the same way barely showed affection until special moments
>mask lady tells Muriel she's fat and eats too many sweets
>Eustace tells her that she's fine as she is when she comes to him later
He was pretty based when the writers didn't make him evil for no reason, like the villain team up episode.
It was funny as while he still had a cantankerous or dismissive tone he would usually be nice to Muriel. Things like saying good night, helping with whatever task, and all that
Manliness
It was pretty rare for Eustace to be mean to Muriel directly.
He just didnt like Courage
Eustace, yer a stubborn ol goat yew are, but that dick goes on for days, so git over here and put some some on me plums ya vinegar veined man ye.
what do you mean?
?
A comfy house
She saw him ballin'
Tall
He's crabby but all she has to do is raise her voice or threaten to withhold dinner and he folds so it's not like he's actually hard to deal with
She beats the sh*t out of him
I'm sick of cartoons normalizing domestic abuse, it's no laughing matter
POV: You are my wife
Fuck this nutty clone bitch Madelyn, Claremont invented her just to retire Cyke but she's the " victim "
>I'm sick of cartoons normalizing domestic abuse, it's no laughing matter
I'm with you man. Especially when its woman on man dv women get away with so much shit but "imagine if a man did it"
He is incredibly abusive to the god for no reason so he kind of deserves it. The whole family is a silly caricature of abusive relationships. That’s not really Muriel specific.
>He is incredibly abusive to the god
come on now, he just asked for an offer on the slab, i wouldn't call that abusive
>Uses three plagues
>Reuses again for fourth
He cheated!
It is completely called for in his case. This isn't like Oscar from the Proud Family.
All she does is comically bonk him with a rolling pin and only when he deserves it.
No, fuck off. It's inherently justified because Eustace is a cranky asshole who doesn't shy from often just insulting Muriel (even though he does love her) and is an asshole towards Courage more than often. She basically just puts him in his place when he needs to be put.
We're talking about a man who gets his kicks regularly traumatizing a small dog. Sometimes an ass kicking is justified.
One day we will find women who let us treat her the way Eustace treats Muriel
Muriel runs the house. She cooks and cleans but that's what gives her the power to order Eustace around.
>that green text of Eustace and Courage teaming up to protect Muriel
This one?
>He's a asshole but he never fights with her
Cute but I can't see Eustace outliving Muriel with his blood pressure
Forgot to delete that from the other post i was going to quote with a dubious reaction image. Whoops.
Incidentally, yeah, side-eying the "never fights with her" thing, they argued in the lesbian cat/rabbit episode, even if they were goaded into it.
Muriel is obese, her blood pressure is probably worse than Eustace's. She's also far less active than Eustace. It wouldn't be surprising for her to die first.
Thats the one
I can't picture anything but Grim from Bill and Mandy.
I'll help jog the mind better: pretend it's amerimanga Grim
Eustace and Courage bonding is nice
It really is.
Was Eustace always nasty, or was he more mellow in youth? I could believe Muriel falling for him if that's the case.
his mom and brother did that before he even had a farm
No but Little Muriel implies that Muriel was much more wicked when she was younger. She even got pleasure out of torturing Courage like Eustace does.
I think their shitty farm made him bitter.
Even a show about gay bois being sad and gay is made decent by a loving married couple.
The only good thing from the show.
Muriel is obviously retarded and senile. Its clear that she has little to no understanding of what's going on around her. She does housework in a constant daze, doesn't care when the house is destroyed or Eustace or Courage get maimed or dissapear. Who knows what her personality was like before the dementia set in? Probably mutual domestic violence with her husband
>made it the distance
sets up a gang of literal murderers in your basement because the dog messed up his favorite blanket
>never have children
Honestly it’s pretty sad but at least they have courage.
If the demographic were a bit older I think they would have done an episode about Muriel being barren. That's why she treats Courage like her son.
Maybe we could have special episode where their children come to visit with their grandchildren and got into cartoon antics with Courage?
The scooby doo crossover is canon. Reveal that eustace and muriels son moved to the himilayas and is flim flams dad and you can get a whole scooby doo courage crossover season.
if my grandchild was this little shit I'd also never contact my son
Holy shit I forgot that happened. Was the cross over any good?
Yes, but eustaces' new voice is fucked up.
I could see Muriel and Eustace's kid taking Courage on "realistic" spooky adventures as a premise for those CW teen shows like Riverdale or that cancelled Powerpuff thing.
>Muriel being barren
>he didn't watch the Harvest Moon episode
It's Eustace who is cursed and barren.
Couples don't need children to prove their love or be happy don't let Pixar's propaganda brainwash you
The majority of them do.
There literally is no other feeling as powerful as seeing the child you and your loved one made through your own love for the first time.
Fuck off incel kids aren't trophies you show off touch grass
>Love
As if anyone would ever touch you lol
Wrong thread ?
I always saw eustace as being a jerk with a heart of gold for when times get serious, but it's been buried under a lifetime of failure and resentment at his family abusing and invalidating him when he was a kid
That kinda checks out. The lesbian cats episode is one of the few times he shows genuine affection towards Muriel and is even fairly civil towards Courage, and fittingly, its in the episode that tackles a serious subject matter like domestic abuse.
>its in the episode that tackles a serious subject matter like domestic abuse.
it's a double whammy, with lesbianism thrown in too
Eustace kinda flip flops depending on the episode but generally he does show genuine concern and care when shit is serious in a grounded manner (though he can switch back to dickhead mode when things shift back to fantastical or goofy)
I like that muriel hates eustace's mom because of how abusive she was to him
