More nonsense.
~~~~~~
Ford fans out his cards, accordion-style, bringing them to rest just below the bridge of his nose, his eyes peeking out from over the top of the wide leaf he’s created. “Perhaps,” he mumbles from behind the improvised mask, “I’m trying to lull you into a false sense of security. After all, we are participating in one the most basic tenets found in game theory, a von Neumannian model in which there can only be one - ”
“Jesus Christ,” Stan groans, pulling a hand down his face, smudging his glasses in the process. He might as well spring the first part of his plan now, before his brother gets too wrapped up in Newport models or whatever the hell he’s going on about. Anything to get him to stop tracing that fucking triangle. “Ugh, too much nerd shit, blah, blah, blah. How about we can the math and make this a little more interesting?” 
Step one, set up and hang the bait. 
Ford tilts his head. “I’m listening.”
“Simple stuff," Stan shrugs. "You draw a card, you have to answer a question. You drop a card, no penalty.” Not the most elegant of Stan’s pitches in his long career, but he’s got one more kicker to sweeten the deal. “That sound game theory enough for you?”
Step two, spring the hook.
“This would add a rather compelling layer of Nash’s Equilibrium to our competition,” Ford says, rubbing his chin with his fingers. “Assuming we both have a vested interest in avoiding or manipulating the interrogation variable to our own means. The mathematical models alone would be fascinating.”
“So how’s about it, Ford? Drop or draw?” Stan drawls with an affected nonchalance, plastering on his best Mr. Mystery smile.
Step three, let them reel themselves in.
His brother stiffens, righting himself into a perfect seated posture as he folds his hand into a neat stack. With a deliberate, exact motion, he reaches out to the messy pile of cards splayed over the center of the table.
“I will call your bluff and draw, Stanley,” he says, not bothering to look at the card as he places it on his stack with the others. “Now,” Ford reaches for a mug of coffee that’s gone cold hours ago, “what question would you like to ask of me?”
Hook. Line. Sinker.

I'M GOING TO BE POSTING ALL POSTS HERE UNTIL THE SIDEBLOGS ARE ALL COMPLETE. i just don't wanna put too many steps on myself. so i will slowly work on the sideblogs and we will just be using this blog here until they are all done. who knows . . . maybe i'll end up just keeping everyone here. i'm gonna be working on the carrd next , but it's gonna take some time since i'm making it from scratch i think. so for rules for now i'll probably link to my main blog for rules. thank you so much my lovelies for dealing with my chaotic self!

was trying to decide whether i want my trio to be a hinge situation, where Wyll and Astarion are with Aja but not with each other, or if i want it to be a full triangle from the get-go
then i realized how funny it would be if it started as an Aja hinge, and they're sort of like "I'd rather not... with him" because they're so different but Aja gets more and more invested in getting them together and they like reluctantly (kicking and screaming for Astarion) try it out "for Aja" because they both care about him
but then oops they catch feelings like absolute idiots

I'm gonna start trying to get back into writing, even if it means spending entire days at the library just for some peace and quiet (normally my happy place and I love being there, but having no transportation and being diabetic but unable to bring food into the building with me complicates things). I've set up a ko-fi and enabled tipping on here even though I don't exactly post Quality Content lmao. Honestly at this point, I'll try anything.

organizing my art folder I found this one drawing sitting there for months bc I didn't like how it turned out and meant to come back to it later but never did lol
but on second thought I guess it looks fine so I might as well post it now 😅
also I've been pretty much MIA these past few months bc life (good and bad) and tbh it was nice, so I'll mostly stay that way, I think... pop back now and then, whenever I finish more drawings lol

Update!!!
We got everything moved into our new place, but I still need to help my brother move into his. SO It'll be another day or two before I can post properly again!!!
Moving!!
Tumblr media
Just thought I’d let y’all know that the art will probably slow down a bit! I’m moving cities in a week so we’ve got a lot of packing and donating to get through. So if I vanish for a few days, that’s why!

[ID in ALT] I've made posts before about Talia/Dick co-parenting Damian moments (will never happen but let me dream) and this came to me in a vision. Took me ages to finish for some reason 😭 and then even longer to post
#dc comics#dc#damian wayne#dick grayson#talia al ghul#batfamily#dc robin#nightwing#anyway. yes im a self-indulgent ''dick as damians secret third parent'' truther#like i DO think it's way more complex and nuanced than the schmoopy affectionate fan portrayal of it#they're brothers they're father and son they're partners they're the dynamic duo except only in past tense etc etc#but consider! I'm not immune to schmoopy affection in fanworks. it compells me despite itself#anyway it's technically not that crazy when it comes to dick and damian. they hug! often! at least they did#it's not as big a leap to these types of scenarios#also talia ''somewhat absent for complex reasons on both her and damians part but very loving and loved by her son'' al ghul#you will always be famous to me#son of the demon origin...bwahhh#anyway. someone made a comic kind of like this/like a post i made abt this topic#but way funnier bc dick and talia starting trying to beat each other up#so go look at that as well#anyway. it's been a somewhat difficult few weeks so I'm. desperately trying to take it easy#i got some reading with me (first vol of kevin smiths GA run that i found second hand and jaimes BB run vol 2!)#so we'll see how far i get through those. considering there's demons in my head telling me to re-read things (LET ME OUT!!!)#when i finish GA and BB i do plan on rereading robin 2021. as a treat to myself#it's a run I've really warmed up to as time went on#I'm keeping up w/ the current b&r run even though it is. admittedly very slow w/ some weird dialogue#i read it for the damian content more than anything. also nikas back so that's neat :]#idk I have a feeling that after absolute power shakes out we might get some more creative team switch ups#so if anyone at dc is interested in taking over the reigns on b&r...that could be very neat#mine
