In-jokes

This page is to list the in-jokes between Moon Snail and Mino, which occasionally come into play in the stories.

Wiktoria
Wiktoria is an... interesting... DeviantArt user who is known among the two for her... uh... stories with her ships, most notoriously Mikaroha, Mino's least favorite ship. The two often love to laugh at her works because of how bad they are. Some of these other in-jokes are from Wiktoria's stories.

Mikado's donuts
For example, in one of Wiktoria's videos (Because she also unfortunately has a Youtube channel), it starts off with Iroha cowering from Mikado, who gives her a donut. She immediately falls in love with him because of this for some reason. This has resulted in a joke that Mikado makes REALLY good donuts, to the point that he can woo others with them and immediately win them over.

All the twinkies are gone
Moon Snail found a shitpost image of a fake news headline detailing "ALL THE TWINKIES ARE GONE" with Lemres overlaying it. That, combined with the caption "'He was unstoppable, he just kept eating them' says eyewitness" made this image really stick with the two.

Mikaschez
With Mikado being one of Mino's most hated characters, and Schezo being one of Moon Snail's most hated characters, the latter came to the obvious (albeit cursed) conclusion of shipping them. And it sadly stuck, and even became canon in the universes. And logically, it starts with Mikado giving Schezo a donut.

Real Time Fan Dub
If you don't know what RTFD is, we feel bad for you. It's a series of fan-made dubs of various games done in real time, without rehearsal, and completely derailing from the original plot. Their themes are often parodied in the MSLU and JWU, mostly the Sonic fan dubs because they are the most well-known and memorable. For example, Dr. Eggman in The Scythe of Souls, as well as the existence of Martha Eggman, are based on the Sonic Adventure 2 Dark Story dub.

Aya is a simp
When Mino was looking more into the Puyo Puyo series after getting Puyo Puyo Tetris, she found out about Strange Klug and immediately fell in love. She then had the idea of Strange Klug trying to ask out her S/I on a date, despite her already being with Iroha. Then it spiraled into Aya, the spirit possession Strange Klug, being a complete simp for Jennifer and always trying to date her, culminating into this being the entire plot of Puyo Puyo R's Final Story. They are often tagged with the phrase "I coming home. Me so horny." as well.

Ringo is an Abban kinnie
During the creation of Puyo Puyo 8, at one point Ringo encounters Jennifer and nearly gets brainwashed by her, before being stopped by Sig. However, they ended up creating an AU where Ringo got fully brainwashed instead, and since Mino's ideas took a lot of beats from Abban from Wolves of the Beyond (Namely rhyming randomly), they started joking that Ringo kins Abban.

Character escalation
Due to how sudden characters in the universes change in the span of a few months, the duo often have fun comparing the initial character idea to what they've become after development. It's usually formatted as "They went from 'Haha initial thing' to 'Long, detailed explanation of the character's backstory and all the trauma they went through'."
