I'm glad you like the idea, because my brain is stupid and tends to think that any idea that comes from it is stupid as well XD Like I mentioned, the story is still in the planning stages, and I'm honestly not sure if it'll ever get published. My friend wants to publish it when it's done though, and she's both the one who came up with the idea and the one doing the actual writing, so I defer to her. I'm mostly just there to come with suggestions, offer improvement advice for the writing, and (if it gets written) translate to English (or at least try to XD), since I'm better at the language than her.

And yeah, I headcanon Lammy as French too; she's actually a foreign exchange student from France in the fic. And I got a little extra advantage here, because I'm actually studying French. Or I was while I was in school I still read it way better than I speak/write it, but I'm planning on resuming my studies so hopefully I'll get better in the future.

Anyway, back to HTF land, I actually like to headcanon France in general as being populated by sort of barnyard animals the way Happy Tree Town (and, I'm assuming, the rest of the US/North America) is populated by forest animals, based on Lammy and Mouse Ka-Boom. I know it probably doesn't really hold since we've seen non-forest animals in irregular episodes, but it's mostly an idea I like to play with.
