[herooakgarcia]

[herooakgarcia]

He is finished. This has been my longest project to date; each piece had to be crocheted and sewn together individually. It's also my most interactive piece!

[herooakgarcia]

did they really bring hermie back lol

hc that once Sparrow learned wildshape as a teen the kiddads all went buckwild with it

they have a video of sparrow as a horse staring at the ocean, you can hear the other kids giggling profusely behind the camera, it zooms in and you can hear him sigh, see him duck his head down solemnly and say "Man" quietly, then they all fucking lose it and the video ends with Nicky, who was filming, dropping the phone because of how hard he's laughing

every time someone reblogs my what happens backstage fanart saying it got them to read the fic i grow a little more powerful

wait okay so

Hermie was metatextually created, by Anthony, not to be a person but a goof. a joke. something for the lulz. and now textually Hermie was actually created just to be a goof. not a person with thoughts and feelings, but something to prank people with

and then metatextually, Hermie stuck around and stayed around for what was supposed to be pulling that long-con joke, but in the process he became a person. in a way, Will's dedication to Normal having a crush on Hermie is what kept him around, and Normal interacting with him that made Anthony flesh out the dialogue that turned Hermie from a goof to a character.

so then, textually, did Normal's care for Hermie actually turn him from a Goof into a Person? like, from a 2dimensional facsimile into someone with independent thoughts and internal logic?

yeah yeah yeah romance BUT LISTEN did the radiation of Normal's emotions fundamentally alter the sapient state of an already living being??? like the Doodler does? some wholesome version of doodlerizing??? NORMALIZING????

“Hermie has a soul” “Hermie doesn’t have a soul” “mpreg scamster real” “mpreg scamster not real” Hermie was created as a being of pure goofs matter whose only purpose is to do whatever is funniest at that moment. him having a soul depends on whether or not it would be funny. he was able to become one soul bc that was objectively funny so he had a soul then. normal not being able to call them soulmates because Hermie doesn’t have a soul would be objectively funny so he wouldn’t have a soul then. scamster mpreg is objectively funny so it’s real. we can bring Hermie back it just has to be objectively funny AU where norm dedicates his life to becoming a prop comedy standup artist in a desperate quest to bring his lost love Hermie to life

[herooakgarcia]

whb update in a couple of hours wohoooooooo!!!! but first i must nap

[herooakgarcia]

oakworthy save me. save me oakworthy. oakworthy. save me oakworthy

[herooakgarcia]

hermie dying because he “didn’t have an interesting place in the plot” is craaaazy… as if norm’s big huge stupid crush on him isnt interesting at all. as if the stupid teenage love octagon couldn’t be extremely fucking funny. the potential
