Does anyone else have multiple interpretations of Animaniacs that you just switch through based on your fanfic/ headcanon/ etc needs?

Like I have one interpretation that it takes place in the same universe as Who Framed Roger Rabbit and its a world where cartoon characters come to life when they are drawn and are essentially immortal beings, and that Yakko, Wakko and Dot really were created in the 1930s ish and got locked in the tower for sixty years, and then when they came out they started doing the show Animaniacs, (so basically Animaniacs is a show within a show) and that every episode that takes place on the lot is Yakko, Wakko and Dot living their lives, while cartoons that take place in less realistic locations (like the King Yakko episode and the movie) are just the cartoons they filmed for “Animaniacs”

And I plan on using this for a fanfic that requires this logic for it to even work.

But then I have another interpretation that it’s still a show within a show, but instead of being immortal beings who magically came to life they are three kids who were born normally and age normally and the entire series are the cartoons they filmed (regardless of location or situation) and with this scenario my age headcanons are that they started out with Yakko at age 12, Wakko at age 9 and Dot at age 8, and they ended with Yakko being 14, Wakko being 11 and Dot being 10, and then the movie Yakko’s 15, Wakko’s 12 and Dot’s 11

And I use this version when I’m thinking about an oc (who I currently have no plans on sharing with you all, sorry) because I like the idea of her growing up with the Warners better than the idea that they all stay young forever

Does anyone else do this? What is/are your interpretation(s) of this show? I’d love to hear what others think
