Just saw a gif of the boathouse Honeycomb scene and realized Eddie is straight up wearing a different watch than the one he throws Nancy.

ST: Puzzle Tales shutting down next month has ruined my day.

"You’re so polite" thanks i was raised in constant fear of upsetting people.

Kind of depressing to see the little smut thing I wrote half asleep a few weeks ago has hit my highest note count on my writing yet. Surpassing my best performing fic ever (also smut) by nearly 200 notes. But anything I've slaved over for more than 15 minutes, sometimes years are literally 10-20x less popular. Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful that people liked it. Just sucks to be reminded once more that effort/love/passion does not equal reward, which is what makes it so hard for most of us to keep writing.

The program I use to make my 3d renders has a new feature. I mentioned it earlier in the month but that was before I really understood how to use it and the amazing things that could be done with it. Turns out that with a bit of work you can put the anime style shader on already existing/created characters. You don't need to start again from scratch.. This is my work, my 3D models, created in DAZ with a texture shader that makes them look cartoon in the program. The same way I could use a metal shader to make them both look like statues made of silver. This isn't an AI after-effect or cartoon generator on top of an already existing render. The characters look like this while I am posing them. I am in love with this and will definitely be making some more artwork of all my characters looking like this as it renders out almost immediately instead of waiting hours.

Here's a 30 frame gif I rendered in 1 minute as opposed to roughly 8 hours per 10 frames of my regular work.

ao3 turns 15 today

reblog if youre older than ao3

[eddiemunsonsmum]

Please reblog to increase sample size, thanks! Also if there’s nuance please reblog with your thoughts. I’m asking because I’m genuinely interested and curious.

When I say love and hate, I mean do you lock in to read these fics with a favorite character, or do you cringe and scroll/blacklist these tags?

Also to get ahead of bitching: 60+ year old fans exist, and regardless of your views on whether it is appropriate or not, minors are reading/writing fan fiction.

Dear People Who Like One Single Chapter in the Middle of a Series,

Did you know that you're driving me insane?

I see your likes. I appreciate your likes.

But since you didn't tell me anything, I never know if: -it was accidental like when you were stalking a tag/blog -you just liked my header -you're using likes as bookmarks -you're reading but only liking the chapters you like like -you liked it simply to acknowledge that you saw it -or one million other reasons that I'm constantly making up

You can tell me things! You can comment on fics, or reblog and attach gifs or memes or reaction pics, or ramble in the tags, or even send an anonymous ask to tell me how you feel! Because I have no idea if these stories are actually getting read or not! I have no idea what you like, or don't like, or want to see more of! If people told me things, I could probably find the motivation to make more things happen!

Sincerely, Wheels

OMG I am SO sorry I didn't see this earlier. I just saw yours in my draft and went wait a minute... that means.... *GASP*

I have not read or watched Dune so the references are lost on me but I trust that they are amazing to anyone that understands. 😂

Omg Eddie calling her "Allie" so that they match haha. He's a dork. But omg yeah imagine he isn't thinking one day OR ACTUALLY Wayne isn't thinking one day and shortens it even further so he's in the kitchen like "Hey did you want a soda Al?" And there is just this huge silence while the three of them look between each other for an uncomfortably long time until Allie decides she's going to move it along like "Yep.. I'll take a soda, thanks." AND THEY NEVER SPEAK OF IT AGAIN. 😅 Wayne calls her Alejanda for the next six months hahaha

Fucking Eddie (affectionate) love bombing her because he's jealous. Love that. Her getting weirded out like tf his wrong with you, why are you being strange... love that even more.

Ah yes "kind of a little unhealthily codependent" my fave genre of couple to read and write about 🤣 Also, the best kind of friend/partner to have. If I can't piss with the door open by the year mark I don't want 'em tbh. Finish what you were saying babe this won't take long.

Okay so I know you've told me some thing about Allie's relationships with the guys, especially Jeff. But I am really curious to know 🦅: How good are their friends at being wingmen? Do they even help at all or just sit back watching the pining with a bag of popcorn? Because I need to know more about how the guys handle Eddie getting a gf and also how Allie's friends are too. THEN 🐱: Do they have pet names for each other, if so what are they? How does their partner feel about their pet name? and of course 😑: How easily do they get jealous and how do they handle it? But alsoooo 🕊️: Give just a general domestic tidbit for em (things they like about each other, routines, habits, and just overall sweet stuff) 🥰

Ahhhhh!! Thank you my love!

Wingman question- I feel like overall in the story I’ve created, Allie’s experiences with the guys are much like how I handled them in high school.

Allie is basically Hellfire’s hobbit, the guys gave Eddie absolute shit for bagging a “Baggins” because she’s short and has tan skin (in my last fic, Eddie compared Allie to Valerie Bertinelli, and the guys immediately said she looked more like a hobbit). I imagine they have no tact and are socially inept, so they immediately started calling her Frodo. But Allie’s pretty feisty and angry, so she’ll often talk shit right back (all in good fun of course, but to the outside observer it looks like they all hate each other, but that’s nerd groups for you).

When they get to know her a little better, she actually finds out that Jeff has read the entirety of Frank Herbert’s Dune series like she has, and is the only one of Hellfire club who didn’t drop off after Dune Messiah, so they have their own little clique within Hellfire called “House Atreides” made up of only those who have read all the current Dune books of that time (up to Chapterhouse: Dune) complete with their own little code names.

Jeff is Leto, Allie is Alia, and Dustin eventually is Muad’Dib because he helps her the most during campaigns (it’s a very complex Dune reference, but the Muad’dib is the name of a desert mouse who taught the Fremen Desert People to produce water in the deserts of Arrakis, and a quote from Dune calls the mouse instructor of boys, hence, Dustin is Allie’s Muad’Dib).

Allie by contrast doesn’t have any friends besides Eddie’s own friends, but she does have a close relationship with Chrissy who talks to her in the bathrooms when they skip periods together. Chrissy at first doesn’t really know who any of Allie’s friends are, but an incident with Eddie makes her mistrustful of him and she constantly warns Allie not to be too reliant on her boyfriend, as Chrissy doesn’t think highly of Eddie after this incident. So Chrissy is highly protective of her little dorky friend, especially after Allie tells her this is the first real relationship she’s ever been in.

Pet name question- Ooooh! Okay! So, the name Allie in of itself is Eddie’s special pet name for Alejandra. Ordinarily, people in Hawkins will use her anglicized name (Alexandra), or they’ll shorten it to Alex, Lexie, Lex, things like that. But since Eddie’s name is shortened, he wanted to match with her, so he started calling her Allie (he did not want to call her Al, for obvious reasons).

At first she HATED that name, but after a while, she got used to it and loved it. Eddie also often calls her simple things like baby, babe, sweetheart, sweetpea, princess, they both call each other “eebies” which is basically “baby” after it’s been woobified so many times the word is no longer recognizable.

Allie’s pet names for Eddie mainly consist of baby, babe, hunny bunny (she loves rabbits so this one was a must), angel, angel baby, and Cherry Garcia because he teased her once for being a cherry girl. So she started calling him Cherry Garcia because he popped hers 🤣.

Jealousy question- I think the one who gets jealous the most is Allie for sure. Homegirl has wack jealousy issues and often just wants to keep Eddie to herself.

I think Eddie is at first big headed about having a girl get jealous and possessive of him, but definitely weirded out by it when it extends out to her being jealous of his friends, and it might actually be one of the factors that he calls her out on the most often. Especially when she starts getting snappy and mean to people who don’t deserve it.

But Eddie is more inclined I think to be self defeating about his jealousy. His hackles don’t raise when he gets jealous of other guys showing interest in Allie, instead he fucking panics. Tries love bombing but when she gets weirded out by it, becomes convinced she doesn’t like him and that she can do better. So he gets depressed and stops if he feels like all his scrambling and love bombing isn’t working.

Domestic tidbit- They spend every waking second together and are actually kind of a little unhealthily codependent. They’re like cats following one another into the bathroom and just hanging out talking like it’s no big deal while they do their business.

It’s usually because they’re mid conversation about something, and don’t see the point in pausing when they can just chat while they do whatever. They figure it’s also easier to just chat while they’re both in the same space so they’re not having to yell through the door. Especially if it’s a private conversation. So it’s common during events to be like “where’s Eddie/where’s Allie” and someone responds “they went to the bathroom” nonchalantly.

Everyone thinks it’s weird and sexual like they’re off screwing in there, but it’s literally just shit like them discussing why you can tell Tolkien is more of a historian than a story teller in the chapter Concerning Hobbits. Or talking shit about how someone looked at them wrong during lunch.

So this morning I went to the thrift store across town. I’ve been wanting to go all week but I've not had the time. I was just feeling this pull like there was something there for me. I walk in and I find it almost immediately in the first section I go to.

I used a picture of a duck almost exactly like this one for the cover of my recent story "This is Babysitting Club, Not Hellfire Club." It was meant to represent the duck that sat on Karmen's desk and is broken during the story.

Not only that, but one week after I posted that fic, I was going through an old photo album and found a picture of me as a baby sitting on the kitchen bench and guess what was on the window sill behind me?

The exact duck I used in the cover art and a friend. I asked my Mum about them and she said she got rid of them a long time ago and I was sad because I always look for duck related things like that and until today, I hadn't found any. It's not exactly the same but it's pretty damn close and I love him. He's sitting on my desk. I just hope an overeager toddler doesn't break him...
