Hi!
I hope everyone has had a good month (almost a half) of this Crazy New Year. Hope you all are staying safe in these trying times. For my latest story I decided to brush up on my poetry (Still working on The Art of Flowers...nudge nudge wink wink) and try out another Casper fic! There will be more details at the end if you want to know about one of my theories for this fandom.
DISCLAIMER:I do not own Casper the Friendly Ghost. If I did there would be more great movies/shows/books about it!
Enjoy!
You are my Little Brothers
ever wild and carefree
Oh the havoc you have caused
even when I held your hands
The chaos you brought upon
with your mischievous shenanigans
The way you guard and hide
So no one will see your souls
Always be true to yourselves
For that makes me truly smile
So no matter how big, or tall
Troublesome or grownup you get
I am still your Sister and
You're still my Little Brothers
You are my Little Son
A treasure of treasures
I carried you in my womb
And held you in my arms
You taught me a new love
A bond of mother to child
How you befriend to all
And see the world anew
Your smile is that of the stars
Your energy that of the wild sea
So no matter how far you travel
or the new friends you may meet
I am still your Mother and
You're still my Little Son
Listen closely My Boys
My time will be cut short
As Sister, Wife, And Mother
There is only so much to say
There is only so much to do
Before I depart this mortal life
My dear Little Brothers
swear on this vow to me
Promise me to care for my Little Son
When I leave this earthly plane
Remind him the ways of family
Of Blood and Water
Remember to tell him
he is never alone
Oh My Boys do not weep
For this is not goodbye
Know my love extends
Passed beyond the salted Earth
Passed forth the blessed Heavens
Remember me, and know
My love is truly eternal
You're still My Boys
No matter what form you take
If you're angry, cruel, or bitter
If you're sad, lonely, or cold
You're still My Boys
Now
And
Forever
So one of my many theories for this fandom is that Casper's Mother (Elizabeth)is the Ghostly Trio's older sister. I feel like she had a more playful nature (which Casper inherited along with her looks) while J.T. was more book smarts, but still caring. She would have passed this down to her son along with her little brothers. I believe she had to raise them herself when their parents died, not wanting Stretch, Stinkie, and Fatso to feel the burden. Especially for Stretch since he is the ELDEST son and would someday have to reign over the family. Elizabeth wanted them to have a childhood for as long as possible.
And the Trio adored their sister! When they got older they realized the sacrifices she had to make for them as they were growing up, giving them opportunities that she could not have (especially in those times women were looked down up and were treated like property.). I believe they might have resented J.T. in the beginning for taking Elizabeth away from them, but slowly eased up once they realized they both loved each other. And once their Lizzie had Casper they were goners. They adored their nephew and spoiled him (when no one was looking of course. They have a reputation to maintain).
And when Elizabeth lay dying, all the men and one boy were heartbroken. She held the family together. They loved her so much and she loved them too. Do you all remember in the movie when Amelia was telling her husband, Doctor Harvey, that the reason she had no UNFINISHED business? Itwas because she was so loved in life that she could move on and wait for them on the other side. I think this also applies to Elizabeth. She wanted to know that her Casper would be taken care when she left this world. Her brothers sworeon her deathbed to take care of him; that is why she crossed over peacefully with no regrets.
And I believe that samevow is alsothe Ghostly Trio's UNFINISHED business. Stretch, Stinkie, and Fatsofelt guilty they couldn't protect their nephew in life, so they would take care of him in the afterlife until all of them would cross over together. To be with Lizzie and J.T.
Let me know what you think of the poem and this theory of mine! Also please share your theories as well! I would love to hear them.
Please Read and Review!
Thank you!
