History Fanfic / Prerugrats

** At the slumber party, they see people dressed up as WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse, [[WesternAnimation/DuckTales Hughie, Dewey and Louie]], [[WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994 Mufasa and Scar]], the gorilla family from Tarzan, the cast of ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'' and [[Myth/GreekMythology Hercules.]]

* DarkSkinnedBlond: Jonathan, Charlotte's coworker, has dark skin and blond hair.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Stu has purple hair (and Tommy does too as the present in this fanfic is set after the show), and Howard has blue hair.

Interestingly, Angelica's Rugrats Theory was not completely made up in this fanfic. Certain aspects were true; they just didn't apply to the Rugrats. Didi, for example, really did have a stillborn baby, but his name was Spencer and thus was not Tommy; Betty really did have an abortion, but it happened while she was in high school and before she and Howard even got together; the person named Cynthia who died was actually Charlotte's mom, not Angelica's; and Melinda had been pregnant at the time of her death, so her unborn child was the one who died with her, not Chuckie.

* YouKeepUsingThatWord: Chuckie calls taking a nap "taking a nappy". Actually "nappy" is another word for diaper. Tommy mentions taking "nappies" too.

** Angelica once claims that Tommy will live with gorillas like Carman, but Peter says, "It's Disney/{{Tarzan}}."

** Lil mentions "that ''Series/HappyDays'' song.

It is set a year after the events of the show, where the Rugrats are hanging out with original characters Zack, Jesse (toddlers) and Peter (a babysitter). The events of ''WebOriginal/TheRugratsTheory'' (an infamous [[EpilepticTrees fan theory]] where the babies died and became figments of Angelica's imagination) are re-imagined as a story that Angelica made up and put on the Internet and people are showing videos of the Rugrats' actual backstories to prove that they do exist and Angelica's story is wrong.

-->'''Zack''': "OK, Angelica, I have a bone to pick with you. Your cousin and his friends saved your life, and you repay them by not only tricking them for the past, oh I don't know, one to two years now, but then, you go on YouTube, and with Peter's help, you tell the world that they don't exist? You ought to be ashamed of yourself!"
