After thinking about the economy and payment for 'toons, and how 'toons are made for certain roles, but can become more than what they were made for, I wanted to see if I can expand on that, and think about sub-speicies. Let me know what you think!
Also, I headcannon that a 'toons ink and paint can effect them like how DNA or genes can affect us! For 'toons, their creators will use certain types of ink and paint depending on what they want their 'toon to do.
Generic 'toon: the 'original' 'toon. The way 'toons all were before humans discovered that you could make more specific 'toons with different inks and paints. These 'toons will get any type of role, as long as it fits the story, like how Mickey Mouse started (one cartoon he's a sailor, the next an average joe, etc), or how I imagine Smarty to be.
These 'toons are the most desensitized to both the antics of 'toons and humans.
These 'toons can do anything that you could think of, since they were made to be anything.
Slapstick 'toon: the 'toons like Roger Rabbit and Goofy, the ones who were made specifically for comedy. Their ink/paint is made to be extra stretchy to accommodate their stunts. These are the second majority next to the generic 'toon. These 'toons are more wild compared to all the other sub-speicies.
These 'toons are the most durable, all 'toons are durable, but these guys wont need as much time to recover from a piano being dropped on their head (they would need a few seconds, while 'toons like the generic type would need a full minute.)
Risque 'toon: 'toons like Jessica and Betty are these types. The 'toons made for more... 'adult' audiences, if you catch my drift. These 'toons dont have as much energy as the other sub-speicies and are usually seen as singers and dancers when their not doing their studio jobs. Their ink and paint is made to make the 'toon more... appealing? As in, even if they were at their least attractiveness (no make up, regular clothes, etc) us humans would still find them appealing. Like how a fish is attracted to shiny objects (maybe that's how Jessica's dress was sparkling in the club, even though I'm pretty sure it was the same dress)
These 'toons, although not attractive by regular 'toon standards, are often the most calm of the 'toon sub-speicies, and tend to think of solutions a little more cynical than the average 'toon, but still 'tooney' (like how Jessica thought about hitting Roger over the head and sticking him in her car trunk to keep him out of trouble)
And finally, my favorite one to think about, the horror 'toon: these 'toons like Psycho or my OC Poppy were made for the horror genre (I imagine in the world of WFRR, they would try to experiment with 'toons and their physics so they can make horror flicks, while also not spending alot of money on special effects for humans). These guys are very durable like the goofy 'toon, but unlike the goofy 'toon who can stretch to unimaginable lengths, these guys can be torn apart and put back together- with a little Acme glue of course think of how in any Courage the Cowardly Dog episode, where he can take out his eyeballs, but will be completely fine in the next scene, in the WFRR universe, each time Courage did that, the director would need to end the scene so they could glue the 'toon back together and then would continue the scene. These 'toons tend to have 'glue scars' that show where they were torn apart for the sake of their cartoon, and are more paranoid or anxious than the other sub-speicies.
These 'toons also can fall into insanity a little easier than the other 'toons. That's not to say that all horror 'toons are insane at all! With how they are used in studios, you can break their minds if your not careful.
And that's my take on sub-speicies for 'toons! I'd love to hear any thoughts you guys have!
