decided to put these in a bit of a chronological order as i can’t help but form a story behind the scenes. it’s a storyteller’s habit. and yeah i do have an idea i would genuinely like to explore with gail simone as a crossover comic. 

i don’t want to be the writer for this. but at the same time i always found diving into these things and exploring the character chemistry was the best way to get an artistic feeling for it.

this is also how i usually develop my own stories.

anyhow, while many think this is me drawing some shipping, in fact this a proof of concept for an adventure story  featuring lara and diana. Gail simone at some point asked if they would kiss and i gave it some genuine thought. i am a character first kind of a writer, myself, so i contemplated this. then i decided, yes, probably.

after all, romantic subplots have been the bread and butter of adventure writing since its inception and i always liked that aspect of adventure stories.

 i hope this puts some things in context from my end XD

and while there will probably be a few more of these, there will be no nsfw pics. after all, camera pans away from indiana jones in those moments as well  XD

okay… there may be a chance of a kiss… but that’s about it.  (edit, i added the rest of them here along with the antagonist)

Hopper is just trying to exist on his thirty minute lunch break when he’s accosted by a determined five year old asking, “Mr Hopper, do you actually know stuff or are you like the other dumb cops?”

He gives Steve an unimpressed look to which the kid just stares back unashamed, “Well?”

“What do you want, kid?”

“Have you ever been in love?”

Hopper, who is a married man and currently on a lunch date with his wife, says, “This is my wife.”

“Okay, hi. I’m Steve,” He tells her and then turns back to Hopper like, “Have you been in love before?”

“Yes,” Hopper stresses. “I love my wife.”

“Oh. Okay,” Steve shrugs like he’s skeptical of that. “I think I’m in love, Mr Hopper. How do I know for sure?”

Diane, clearly amused by all this asks, “Who’s the lucky girl?”

“Her name is Miss Maria,” Steve tells her. “She’s Tommy’s mom. I met Tommy at school and he’s my best friend, then I went to his house and met his mom.”

“She’s so nice to me,” He continues. “She makes me lunch and rubs my back when I’m scared, and she doesn’t hurt my head when she brushes my hair. And she-“

“She said she loves me,” Steve leans in to whisper. “And I love her back.”

“That’s different.”

“How?” Steve asked.

“Loving someone and being in love are two different things,” He answers. “They are different feelings.you can love anyone but you’re only in love with one person.”

“How do I know which one I have?”

“Well, you’re five,” Hopper tells him and Steve nods because he is. “So you’re not in love with anyone. You have to be an adult to be in love.“

“But-“

“You love Maria in the same way you love your mom because she is acting like your mom.”

“She does not act like my mom, Mr Hopper.”

Hopper opens his mouth and then closes it. He sighs internally and tells the kid simply, “You’re not allowed to be in love with your friend’s mom. You can love them but you cannot be in love with them. Got it?”

“Oh,” Steve says. “Is it illegal?”

“Sure.”

��Maybe I should put aside my greed for royalties.’ It’s not like I desperately need that money, so I might as well do some good for people. Even if those sneaky Americans get annoyed, I’ll just make the information freely available. … No, I’ll only charge royalties to the arrogant developed nations. Especially Japan—I won’t feel guilty even if I charge them double.

gsgsgaggsfagahdhhsw. OKAY

Absolutely stunning sequence from "The S-Classes I Raised" that tragically didn't make it into the Webtoon:

Even five years later, we couldn’t predict the time and location of dungeon creation.

Wait, was it really that we couldn’t? Or that we didn’t? Her words made me suspicious.

The American dungeon research institute that Seok Hayan belongs to will discover the laws of dungeon creation and earn tremendous royalty revenue three years from now. While the accuracy of the laws improved later, they never made new research achievements. (...)

‘It wasn’t that they couldn’t do it, nor that they didn’t. They hid it.’

No way. As unbelievable as it sounds, no way.

But if they did hide it, and then announced that they could predict dungeon creation only after rival nations were pushed to the brink…

They could gain far more benefits than if they had announced it during peacetime.

‘… I can’t believe they would do something so crazy. But then again, turning a profit from war or ignoring dungeon threats is no different.’

If half a year, or even just a year, had passed, they could have divided China. Russia’s situation wasn’t great, either. They’d gleefully resume their role as the world’s police, which they had briefly lost, by claiming to protect others from dungeons.

This is your semi frequent reminder that there is no official AO3 app

All those are unofficial and available on the Google play store as of August 13th 2025. They mirror AO3's content and insert ads, for which the developer gets paid by page impression (that's every time the ad appears in the fic you're reading) not just clicks.

No money goes to AO3, nor to the fic writer. It goes to the person who did the bare minimum.

Many of these apps have poorly worded or non existent privacy policies, so they may also be mining as much data as possible and selling that on to unknown third parties.

Please, just use the official AO3 site and the browser.

the locked tomb is a comedy

[chaos-has-theories]

Might have said so before but. My unnecessarily controversial opinion is that My Dress-up Darling is a trans narrative. Like - listen.

Main guy has been keeping himself distant from his peers all his life, showing as little affect as possible and hiding in his afterschool activities.

Said afterschool activities are making dolls, painting their faces, sewing their clothes. This is because when he was like, seven, he saw a doll for the first time and realized that things could be beautiful.

Part of the reason why he doesn't try to make friends with anyone is that, when he was that age, someone shouted at him that it was weird that he cared about dolls, because he is a boy and dolls and pretty things are for girls. So he can't talk about his dolls, but they're the most important thing to him, so he always has to keep his important thing hidden, so what's the point anyway?

The first time he sees a girl being unapologetic about her interests even when people think they're weird, it blows his entire mind. It's why he agrees to help her with whatever her interests are, because this is what he wants to be like one day.

Now, that interest happens to be Cosplay, and the media the characters are based on.

Episode 1: "making fun of the things someone cares about is the cringiest thing anyone could do"

Episode 2: "[specific media] might be made for [gender] but that should never stop you from liking things!!!"

Episode 3: "who cares what people think just be yourself!"

Episode 4: grandpa saw the clothes you bought FOR COSPLAY and came to the correct wrong conclusion. Result: weeklong depressiona and burnout era

Episode 5: Wait, you can crossdress in cosplay? Like..... for no reason whatsoever hahaha you mean a guy could dress up as a girl?

Etc etc until you get to Episodes 9-10 that are just. "I would like to cosplay this character but I don't think I can pull it off... my body type is all wrong... I couldn't dress up as a guy." "I'LL MAKE IT WORK JUST YOU WAIT." and "why didn't she tell me she liked this character so much that she wanted to cosplay him?" "It takes a lot of courage to tell people about the things you care about and the things you want to do." and "When she told me how she felt I couldn't help but relate" "wait do you want to do cosplay too?" "no that's... not what I meant"

And then there's the outro, of course.

This girl is about to learn that denial is not just a river in Egypt.

polytrix kid fic idea where mira’s brother had an affair and his wife’s loaded chaebol family is absolutely dogwalking him in divorce court and usually mira would be loving that but then the wife also sues the affair partner using mira’s niece(!!!!!) as evidence and now there’s a sad little kid involved which is her weakness and mira’s brother has one solitary decent bone in his body where his daughter is concerned so he asks his estranged k-pop idol sister who last acknowledged their relationship by dissing him (and their parents) in a music video that trended #1 on music charts globally for months to take his daughter in until everything blows over because literally everyone involved is awful (including himself) and the affair partner, his wife, and their parents all want to use his daughter as a pawn but mira is untouchable so really she’s the best choice and mira was going to say no but she sees a picture of her niece with the same miserable angry look in her eyes that mira used to have and she can’t say no to that.

unfortunately she now has to break the news to her girlfriends and the timing is unfortunate because she recently put her foot down about getting a pet when they already have a spirit tiger and bird wandering through their apartment so she just knows zoey is never going to let her live this one down.

GENUINELY so annoyed that I can't keep my app language on the YouTube app as my native language without YouTube occasionally (and getting more frequent) automatically changing the audio track to a terrible robot dub in my language rather than just showing me the original audio. I changed the app language now, assuming that's gonna fix it but it's just. Frustrating. Is it going to do the same thing to the occasional video I watch in my native language now? Am I not allowed to be bilingual anymore? It's the taking away of agency and the tediousness of having to change it back whenever it happens that bothers me. Just give me a setting where I can tell you not to do this. Why is that so hard?

“Ariel sold her voice for legs just because of a guy“

Meanwhile Ariel with legs;

Ariel already loved the human world long before meeting Eric (you don’t get a collection like hers overnight) and when she finally got a chance to explore it, she took it.

Ursula made it more about Eric than Ariel ever did.
