Total Drama Cody - Tumblr Posts
No twinkies allowed Cody 🫨🫢🫢🫢
Agreed
Alright, I'm going to be honest here. I kin Cody, as in relate not like I have memories of his life, and I need to speak up.
I am so sick and tired of Cody's characterization by fans. He is not cool. He will never be cool. By making him cool, you misunderstand his character. He's not your cool alt guy, your small boi, he's a loser who regularly forgets to shower. I like him, I do, but some of you treat his character with a little too much kindness. I think we all could benefit from some honesty.
Cody is not cool - a Cody kin
God in the celebrity manhunt special you cannot convince me that Noah and Cody cuddled on live television a second time on accident. they look so happy to be cuddling. the only other characters that were cuddling were those in established relationships. Noah and Cody had a thing during action and you can't convince me otherwise
Why am I only now seeing this post
I'm re-watching TDWT right now and I noticed that Cody was being picked on by being called a female since he's on Team Amazon ( An all girls team.) and since in your AU Cody's trans, he must have been super dysphoric and demotivated during that time since the only person he told was Sierra and no one knew so they didn't know anything was wrong.
YYYUP
WHAT
how I go to sleep at night knowing Gwen’s voice actor confirms that Gwen does love Cody, and wouldn’t mind if a gwody love triangle happened in a future season.
I FORGOT HE DID THIS SHIT
if the newest total drama meme is making fun of cody my contribution is that he fucking used a calculator to determine that 7 is in fact, a bigger number than 3.
Why Total Drama Action was worse than TDI AND TDWT
I was scrolling through Total Drama Tumblr when something caught my attention. A post that talked about Cody and how he was technically the protagonist (along with Heather) in Total Drama World Tour. And that got me thinking.
Season One protagonist: Gwen (Owen could be argued but I would say he was more of a mascot than a protagonist)
Season Two protagonist: No Clear protag (Could say Duncan, and I'll get to that in a bit)
Season Three protagonists: Heather and Cody
And I think this is why TDA was worse than the other two seasons.
In TDI, Gwen was the "Straight Man" of the 22 contestants. She was levelheaded and reacted the most normal out everyone, even calling out others for their lack of reaction to the crazy situation they were faced with. While others like Leshawna, Heather, Trent and Duncan could also be weirded out and confused at the nonsense, they tended to go with it without much question. We followed Gwen throughout the season from the beginning to the finale.
In TDWT, Heather was the main protagonist during the first half of the season, with Cody joining her during the second half. For Cody, the first half was used to set him up for the second half of the season, setting the stage with his and Sierra's dynamic and the issues that came from it. Both Cody and Heather, while not as much as a "Straight Man" that Gwen was in Season One, were usually pretty levelheaded and had season long problems with Sierra and Alejandro respectively. We followed them from the beginning to the finale. (Even though Cody wasn't in the Final Two, he still played a key part in it.)
TDA, however? As I stated above, you could say it was Duncan as he made it to the finale, but I disagree with that. The difference between Duncan and the others is that from the beginning of their respective seasons, the first episodes practically outright stated what the overarching problems would be for the protags. Gwen was surrounded by a bunch of outlandish characters with skills and flaws that could help them in challenges she couldn't understand but needed to out power through if she wanted to win. Heather's behavior from past seasons catching up to her making her a target while also trying to keep Alejandro under her radar. Cody had to deal with Sierra's obsession of him and the problems that stemmed from it while just trying to survive everything thrown at him. Duncan? Nothing that follows him all the way to the finale. The relationship drama doesn't count since it either didn't affect him (Gwen and Trent) or it wasn't introduced until way later into the game (him and Courtney) (Also to mention that Gwen was the protag again before she was eliminated)
I am not saying that having a clear-cut protagonist would have saved TDA, but it definitely would have helped it. Having a protagonist that has a season-long overarching storyline that we follow along with a resolution is the key to a good season. Just look at the seasons that follow the protagonist pattern vs. the ones that don't and there is a clear difference in how the fans receive it. Anyway, these are just my thoughts, but I feel they are worth noting down.
the bug is infesting in his brain!!!!
a funny feeling (9/?)
I LOVE HIM BUT I HATE HIM
THROW HIM NOW
noah is so real
Ok so how did Noah and Cody realize they liked each other? Was it during or after the nemma divorce? How long did Cody like Noah and vise versa?
I’m sorry this is a lot but I LOVE LOVE LOVE this au sm and I love details
noahhad a real yaoi moment right then and there unfortunately...
man wtf is up with him?? (15/?)
god fucking dammit (16/?)
I like to think Trent was very accidentally Cody’s bi-awakening in TDI
POV YOU'RE REALIZING THAT CUTE GUY YOU KNOW WHO YOU'VE BEEN BONDING WITH SINCE YOU BOTH LIKE THE SAME GIRL ISN'T TOO SHABBY HIMSELF
okay so after my dundie edits and gwourtney edits i knew eventually i was going to do trody ones which i did!! take a look! they happen instead of gwent and stuff!q
okay. so. i wrote something! this is the first fanfic i've written that got over a thousand words since 2020 and i decided to post it!! it takes place in this TDI rewrite AU that I've been working on for a couple months now where gwen's on the bass. there's probably going to be a whole season rewrite since that isn't the only change i made for this AU but i sort of got invested in the Trody plot two days ago and went "fuck it i'm writing fanfiction about how smitten Trent is with Cody" and it was born!! feedback of any kind is appreciated!
Besotted with Him
+ a little doodle of a scene at the end of the first chapter :D
currently working on a redesign for the td rewrite i've been working on and i have no idea how to style cody;;; i doodled this though! it isn't much but i just thought i should probably start posting more stuff here
trody redesigns with duncan third wheeling! (if I'm being honest I'd have done him with Katie and Sadie but that just would've felt weird)
also ethnicity headcanons! except it's honestly just kind of trent because I can't really imagine the other two being anything else I'm sorry
Courdy?
(read tw in tag before reading)
I see them more platonically, honestly! I can't really imagine them to have anything romantic going on but they have that if they met in elementary school they'd probably be best friends until they slowly fall out of touch with each other and cut contact altogether when high school begins- not for any particular reason other than their cliques becoming very different- then reconcile at some point afterwards vibe. I'd like to imagine they bonded over having similar-ish childhoods that they couldn't entirely process or talk about properly even with each other until they grow older. Anyways that aside I digress otherwise etc. in canon I think they'd be silly but romantically speaking nothing that's long term if they'd try anything. Like, if you've ever watched Friends (I have. too much. all ten seasons at age 13. I've many regrets) I think of them more the way the show tried to pair up Rachel and Joey. Funny, maybe a bit heartfelt and feeling a bit real for a while but nothing that'd last
god what do I even call this.. something something canon event idk
(I guess also this took place around the time they just adopted Raj)
I sure hope Hijotee is doing well wherever they may be... (21/24)
