Toons somehow came to life and all was good with these familiar characters now actually being alive. Their companies kept them safe and they were getting jobs. Thats is until the toons learned how they were perceived in the modern day compared to their golden age. Mickey was now only considered a greedy corporate brand and only caters for kids and not the nice mouse who works hard to bring hope and happiness through his shorts for everyone of all ages. Bugs sees himself as now only a face to be sold rather than his cunning and his word play come backs making his famous and he himself barely getting any roles since warner brothers barely make anything of him anymore. Betty seeing herself more sexualized and used as a model only rather than the feminist icon she originally was in her shorts. Felix the cat, no one even remembers him despite his impact. All of their work, all of their pride in their work to bring happiness and joy to humans, especially for the toons made in the Great Depression, meant nothing in the end. They were just faces to be sold despite the work they gave into their shorts. The toons were infuriated, even the nicest toons turned red in anger. They hated this, they didnt give it their all for nothing. Hence the animation purge took over the United States. Toons were now dangerous, using the cartoon logic that only applies to them to push humans out of high seats of control. It’s feels like an apocalypse, people running away and flying out of the states for their safety. It was terrible. Now you have to wander through the worn torn cities to try and find or earn enough money to leave the country, to only run into the Animaniacs and other toons along the way.
