Lost his eye at 3 years of age to cancer. When he was out of high school, conned his way into the Merchant Marines during the war before getting into acting.
I just finished this (it took me like 4 days but I wasn't reading it 24/day lol) I'm a bit upset this is the last one but I'm really happy it ended like this :3
I'd argue that OG Bluey is a canon reverse_trap, since the show initially (first ~20 secs) presents itself as continuing the long established trope of colorcoding and shapecoding the sex of the characters (like how MLP did, and still does), and Bluey has the color and the head/muzzle shape of Bandit. It certainly tricked me, to think that Bluey was a boy. Although inworld people seem to have no issue with identifying Bluey as a girl first.
In the words of Norm Macdonald, "it sounds like some fucking commie gobbledygook."
