Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
fresh and his stupid kid
ngl in real goulash lore, i'm not sure if he ever meets his "parents"??? since he was created nowhere near them, he's not even sure how he was created, so he just assumes he just randomly spawned into existence one day---which is pretty sick swag if you ask me
if anything, he might've ran into them once or twice, but unless he puts two-and-two together with detecting fresh (the parasite), then he won't think twice about them aside that greaser has cool hair
(apologies on some of the panels looking ass. apparently I couldn't draw the day I sketched the first few)
ALSO ARRGHH IM SO SORRY I'VE BEEN SO ABSENT THE PAST FEW DAYS. I've been so insanely busy with Christmas n being sick n jazz. I've been wanting to draw and lowkey expand on goulash stuff since I want to force people to acknowledge his existence (since I think he's pretty awesome sauce)

SWAG okay I was just asking if like. La Squadra with a goth reader but the Stand is like one of those little cute clown dolls???
Tumblr media
Kinda like one of these if that makes sense??
Masterlist here <3
I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed writing this, I’ve been wanting to give La Squadra something for so long!
You didn’t specify whether this is platonic or they’re dating so I made it platonic, I hope you don’t mind. 💕
Tumblr media
(Stand side nots: it’s small in size but not as small as the sex pistols, stand abilities: cartoon physics type of stuff, you’ll understand what I mean when you read)
La Squadra with a goth intimidating reader who’s stand is a cute clown
(Bucci Gang version)
Tumblr media
Risotto Nero
Risotto eyes you from the shadows, his gaze a piercing mix of curiosity and wariness. He’s used to assessing threats at a glance, and your dark, gothic aura suggests you’re someone worth watching. Expecting a deadly stand to match your look, he’s caught off guard when a colorful, plushy clown appears at your side, giving him a cheerful wave. Risotto’s eyebrow twitches in confusion. “That…is your stand?”
You merely nod, unbothered by his judgmental tone, and watch as the clown suddenly pulls out a giant anvil from behind its back. Without a moment’s hesitation, it hoists the heavy object above its head and slams it down toward Risotto. He dodges just in time, but a massive crater forms where he’d been standing. Now, his interest is piqued.
The battle is intense, with Risotto using Metallica to manipulate nearby iron objects, while your stand counters with cartoonish props that make no sense. When Risotto sends sharp metal scalpels flying your way, the clown produces a comically large pair of scissors, snipping each projectile mid-air before any can touch you. He clenches his teeth, frustrated but impressed, realizing your stand’s unpredictability is a dangerous advantage.
As the fight progresses, Risotto attempts to corner you, but your clown keeps pulling off unexpected tricks: an endless rope to trip him up, a cartoonish boxing glove that launches itself from its body to land a powerful blow, and even a giant magnet that affects his own stand. Despite his usual stoicism, you catch a slight twitch of a smile at the edge of his mouth, a rare acknowledgment of respect.
Formaggio
The moment Formaggio sees your stand, he bursts into laughter. “A clown? For you?” he teases, clearly amused by the contrast. He underestimates both you and the clown, finding the sight of it bouncing around in its colorful, knitted outfit hilarious. “Oh, this is too rich! What’s it gonna do? Tell me a joke?”
But as he’s busy laughing, the clown’s wide grin turns mischievous. With a snap of its fingers, it pulls out an oversized mousetrap and sets it right near his feet. Just as he takes a step forward, SNAP! Formaggio yelps, his foot caught in the trap as the clown cackles, its high-pitched laughter echoing.
Annoyed, he shrinks himself down, hoping to slip away undetected, but your stand has other plans. Suddenly, a tiny circus tent appears around him, trapping him inside with exaggerated cartoon walls that stretch and contract whenever he tries to push against them. He scrambles around, bumping into props like juggling pins and rubber balls, each one oversized and ridiculous. Every escape attempt is thwarted by the clown stand, which gleefully watches from outside, tapping its nose as if to say ‘Nice try!’
Frustrated, Formaggio finally escapes, only to be greeted by a pie to the face courtesy of your stand. You can’t help but smirk as he stumbles, wiping cream from his eyes. Lesson learned: don’t judge a stand by its appearance.
Illuso
Illuso sneers, confident he can handle whatever your stand throws at him. He’s unimpressed by the clown’s playful antics, crossing his arms with a smug grin. “That thing can’t possibly stand a chance in the Mirror World,” he scoffs. He reaches out, attempting to drag the clown into his dimension. But as he tries, the clown’s face smashes against the mirror like it’s in a slapstick cartoon, flattening with a loud ‘SMACK!’
Irritated, Illuso tries again, but the clown wiggles its finger at him in a mocking gesture. Then, with a flourish, it pulls out a comically large mallet and begins pounding the mirror. Each hit causes cracks to form in the reflective surface, sending Illuso scrambling to repair it from his side.
Realizing he’s losing control of the situation, he attempts to flee, but the clown is relentless, conjuring up ridiculous items: a huge pair of pliers that it uses to tug on his jacket from the real world, a tube of glue that it splatters across the mirror to trap him, and even a giant, inflatable hammer that bounces him around when he tries to escape. By the end, Illuso is fuming, his pride wounded as he’s bested by what he initially thought was a “harmless joke.”
Prosciutto
Prosciutto gives your clown stand a cold, judgmental look. “How ridiculous,” he mutters, activating The Grateful Dead to age it immediately. He expects the clown to crumble like any other target, but instead, the clown’s cheerful expression only morphs into an exaggerated elderly one, complete with a fake beard and comically oversized glasses. It hobbles around, leaning on an imaginary cane, but still manages to wave cheekily at Prosciutto.
Annoyed, he increases the aging effect, but the clown retaliates by pulling out a huge spray bottle labeled “Youth Juice” and spritzing itself. With a little shake, it reverts to its original state, completely unaffected by Prosciutto’s stand. He grits his teeth, realizing this is going to be more complicated than he anticipated.
As the fight goes on, your clown stand begins to toy with him, pulling absurd stunts to dodge his attacks. At one point, it stretches out its arm impossibly long to reach around him, delivering a surprise slap across his cheek. When he lunges at it, the clown conjures up a banana peel, sending him sliding across the floor in a rare moment of humiliation. By the end, Prosciutto’s usual calm demeanor is shattered, replaced with a barely restrained fury as he realizes he’s been made a fool of.
Pesci
Pesci is intimidated by your dark, gothic look, but the clown stand’s cheerful demeanor throws him off balance. He chuckles nervously, finding its antics strangely endearing. He reaches out, almost wanting to pat it, but that’s when the clown’s eyes glint with mischief. Suddenly, it pulls out a gigantic fishing pole, casting the line straight at Pesci’s Beach Boy.
To his horror, it hooks onto Beach Boy and starts reeling it in, dragging him along with it. He panics, trying to regain control, but your clown stand is relentless, pulling out one absurdly oversized object after another: a big rubber chicken that smacks him across the face, a fake tunnel painted on the wall that he crashes into, and even a gigantic fishbowl that it briefly traps Beach Boy inside.
Pesci ends up sprawled on the ground, out of breath and utterly bewildered, realizing that the “cute” clown was anything but harmless.
Melone
Melone’s analytical mind goes into overdrive the moment he sees your stand. He’s immediately intrigued, trying to understand how something so cute could pack such a punch. He releases Baby Face, expecting the creation to take care of the clown stand quickly. But your clown is ready. It pulls out an enormous vacuum cleaner and begins sucking up Baby Face’s cubes as they approach, each one vanishing with a satisfying “pop.”
“Fascinating,” Melone mutters, momentarily captivated. But his awe turns to frustration as the clown pulls out more absurd props: a giant fly swatter to smack down any cubes that regenerate, a massive cartoonish rubber band that it snaps at Baby Face, sending it flying back, and even a bucket of water it throws in Baby Face’s direction, which somehow shorts out its pieces temporarily.
Melone watches in frustrated fascination, torn between admiration and irritation as your clown completely disrupts his plans. His usual calm is nowhere to be found as he finally realizes that no amount of calculation could prepare him for your stand’s chaotic nature.
Ghiaccio
Ghiaccio scoffs the moment he sees your stand, launching into a furious rant about how impractical it is. “A clown? Are you serious? How can you take this fight seriously with something like that?!” he shouts, his icy rage fueling White Album’s powers. He expects you to be intimidated, but your clown merely giggles and pulls out an enormous fan, blowing back his freezing attacks with ease.
As Ghiaccio’s temper flares, the clown pulls out a barrage of comedic props: rubber chickens, cream pies, and a mallet that’s almost as big as he is. Each item hits him with perfect comedic timing, making him look increasingly ridiculous as he stumbles, rants, and struggles to stay upright. His face flushes with frustration as he realizes he’s being outmaneuvered by a “stupid clown.”
His final attempt to attack is thwarted when the clown produces a firecracker, tossing it at his feet with a cheeky wink. The explosion leaves him covered in soot, looking like a classic cartoon character after a mishap. Seething, he roars, “STOP LAUGHING!” as your clown grins back, unfazed.
Tumblr media
I hope you enjoyed this! If you’d like anything fixed or anything specific don’t be shy to message me and tell me!

why arthur christmas is the best christmas movie of all time:
- treating christmas as a military operation undertaken by battalions of elves risking their lives
- it nails the family dynamic: a vaguely offensive grandpa constantly talking about the good old days, an older man determined he's still young and a brilliant father, the coolest woman you've ever met brushed off as "Wife", an eldest child desperate for respect and acknowledgement, and a younger child beginning to notice the family's intense dysfunction. what could be more christmassy.
- a lot of dark humour for a kids movie and completely unafraid to drop references to the cuban missile crisis or vietnam war
- "is it true children aren't real and they're just antimatter?"
- at one point they hypnotise lions with a pair of novelty slippers and singing silent night
- moving on from the old ways but recognising that the technological age brings with it intense depersonalisation and in order to welcome it in we need to make changes to the way we view consumption to prevent everything falling to a corporate mindset
- the homoerotic energy between Steve and his elf and the blatant lesbianism of bryoney
- grandsanta says "at least finish us off with a rock" and arthur literally stops to consider it
- arthur's autistic swag
- "all around the streets, children on new bicycles pointing "THAT'S THE GIRL SANTA HATES!" she runs away, alcoholic by the age of nine, DEAD BEFORE SHE'S EVEN-"
- the US military shoots down santa after mistaking him for a ufo
- arthur running solely on weaponised anxiety for a good chunk of the movie
arthur christmas suffered from a terrible marketing campaign and i won't let it keep going on without the recognition it deserves

Give me a post canon Neku that's ever so slightly Spooky.
When he moves through the crowds on the street, there is a little bubble of space around him. Unconsciously, people step aside to give him room to pass. You can track him even in a throng of people, just by the small parting of the masses, the one man gap of space that naturally forms around him, as the citizens of Shibuya feel something mighty moving among their midst.
His pockets constantly jingle with pins. Every promotional button, every limited-time swag, he collects almost without thinking, fidgeting with them as he talks. It seems like he carries his entire collection on him at all times, more than it seems can even physically fit in his pockets.
He sees people on the streets that no one else can see. He'll give them a little nod, a look of sympathy, and, occasionally, toss a pin from his seemingly never-ending collection to them. For just a second, there's someone visible, like the sheer act of being acknowledged by the Legendary Player raises them a frequency or two, bringing them just a little closer to this plane. Then you blink and they're gone. Faded back into the hustle and bustle of the city like they were never there at all.
He's somehow a regular at every shop, every restaurant. Locals recognize him, greet him like an old friend. This isn't exactly weird, per se, but what is weird is he can't be more than twenty. How does he even have the time to become a fixture at every hotspot in town? When he walks into a cafe, the staff instantly knows what he's going to order. But if you ask, the cashier will look puzzled, and tell you, in an almost confused admission, that they don't think he's ever been here before today.
He'll answer questions without you even having to ask them. He'll respond to unvoiced thoughts, back of the mind though jumbles, know exactly what you're trying to say even if you can't fit it into words. Sometimes, he'll tilt his head, like he's listening to some distant music, and in that moment you're not entirely sure he isn't reading your mind.

So, this week's episode...
Tumblr media
[Spoilers below cut]
Past Ink: Guys, it's fine. This isn't a serious episode, it would be too soon for another arc. It's just gonna be another silly Saturday.
Current Ink: ....
(the following is my live reaction:)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
[*unholy screaming*] FOUR NOOOOOOOOOOOO
WOW WHAT A GREAT START TO THIS EPISODE, SCRATCH EVERYTHING THAT I SAID ABOUT THIS BEING A "NORMAL" EPISODE
NOPE I NEED TO PAUSE, I NEED TO TAKE A WALK BC I'M NOT GONNA GET OVER IT, DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS COULD LEAD
they're not gonna do it in this episode BUT the fact that goop!4 is being acknowledged in every way possible, we might just have a sequel in our hands
Tumblr media
NO NO NO CUT THE INTRO, I HAVEN'T EVEN FINISHED THE EPISODE YET AND YOU WANT ME TO MAKE A THEORY ON IT ALREADY? HOLD YOUR FUCKIN HORSES, I'LL GET THERE GEEZ
anyway, we have to press play...
Tumblr media
I'm pretty sure someone already has done a pirate au (no I'm not over what I just watched) and anyway, artists: here's pirate SMG4
Four, you should've read the file name before downloading it [*shakes head*]
Wait, is this going to be a parody of computer buddies? That's actually pretty fun..... OH NO NO NO
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ah, so we are doing computer buddies
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Actually, yeah, can we have Mario as president please
love how it says "no one even compares to mario. especially smg4 who sucks booty cheeks [or ass] and mario doesn't"
Observe as the SMG4 fandom gets terrified of the word "perfect" [*screams*]
MARIO MARIO NO NO NO HE DIDN'T SAVE
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I felt that in my core omg
as a graphic designer, this hurts
apparently, there's a whole new dimension in our computers, Only in the SMG4 Universe [*cheesy thumbs up*]
We really are getting all the computer buddies, huh? I wonder if KinitoPET will appear
Tumblr media Tumblr media
[*silver the hedgehog voice*] It's no use!
BRITISH SMG3
wow what a funny bit... WAIT HOLD UP WAIT A MINUTE, LOOK AT THE MEDIA BOX
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
the eyes....
w̷̹̓e̷̼̽ ̸̯́n̴̩͆e̵̝̓v̴̼͑ë̵̤r̴͓͛ ̷̭͝l̵̦̎e̴̞͗f̵͉̐ṯ̴͗
and the left eye too... oh god, the EYE OF RA— [*gets shot*]
honestly, Four, you improved your aim ever since Western Spaghetti (ik you also did for PV but that's not the point)
I knew they were gonna bring in buff Luigi again
I'M SCREAMING
THERE IS NO WAY THE TEAM JUST DROPPED THAT ON US, THIS CAN'T BE REAL
ok first off, the fact that Four has a folder labeled "Super SECRET Spicy Memes" is giving "totally homework" folder energy (and I don't want to even think more about that)
hey, Four did say that Three brings some spice into his life (yeah, "rosemary to my bread" and all that jazz)
SECOND, the fact he has an image of SMG3 with him saying "whats the matter smg4 kun?"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
THEN the "I know what you are" audio clip...
Four, buddy, you're down bad aren't you?
like "woah smg4's bisexual, I didn't know that", the closet is out of GLASS so we been knew but I DID NOT expect this
Tumblr media
having Three be a tsundere is one thing, but FOUR....
🫵🏳️‍🌈⁉️
"they're dating behind the scenes" at this point, yeah
we have to keep going... [*secretly puts this clip on the fridge*]
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I hate this so much /silly
[*chaos ensues*] [*sips my coffee*] just another tuesday saturday
GOTTA GO FAST GOTTA GO FAST— [*gets tazed*] i can never catch a break c'mon man
oh hey Swag!
four dollars is four dollars, you got yourself a deal
ok, I'm gonna need everyone to see Four's cute little hops here:
Tumblr media
look at him go, my silly little goober :) oh, now you have? then let's keep going
holy shit, this fight scene is so well animated!!! LET'S GOOOO
never thought I'd see the day of seeing biblically accurate bonzi in an SMG4 episode and yet here we are.
Tumblr media
SCREAMING CRYING THROWING UP
THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING I'VE SEEN IN MY LIFE, I'M ASCENDING
"...but they hugged before" NO YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND
A normal hug, where two people cross each other and are unable to see the other's face since it's over their shoulder, is just as it is: a normal hug. It can be seen as platonic and/or romantic.
THIS is a lot more intimate. 3 and 4's heads touch while they hold each other by the hand. This type of hug is reserved more for romantic partners when the situation leads them to a devasting end, where they face each other to look at and remember what their partner looked like, one last time before they die.
In this case, it makes sense as the computer is collapsing within itself.
"It's not actually them tho." Yes, they're digital copies of 3 and 4 but that's the thing: they're COPIES, acting on what 3 and 4 would actually do
SMG34 shippers, we are eating GOOD today yum yum
but then, that begs the question: would there be a moment where 3 and 4 would reveal their feelings for each other at the worst possible time?
(you guys are not going to be ready for my next episode concepts) What, who said that?
uh anyway them 💙💜 gotta put it on the fridge
I feel for you, Four, but I have a horrible feeling about this
Tumblr media Tumblr media
...
Foreshadowing is a literary device—
no seriously, I feel like this could be part of a future arc where a past villain would ruin everything Four has and would offer up a deal when Four would be the most desperate. There's always a catch. Hmm, why does that seem familiar...?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Your life's work or your friends, it's your call, SMG4
:)
HELL YEAH FOUR, THROW IT AWAY (omg just like how he chose Three over the USB, I'm crying dude)
also congrats to Ourstor08954957 for the lovely art in the end credits 🎉 such cute doodles ❤️
Tumblr media
.・-: ✧ :--: ✧ :-・.
Oh boy, what an episode. I feel like I'm in another plane of existence right now. Everything was absolutely incredible, great job Team!!
Everyone, say THANK YOU to whoever put the SMG34 crumbs in there, we shall treasure it for the rest of our lives. I'm gonna put those moments on my fridge. OH I would love to see the artists draw the SMG34 hug or pirate Four!
Love the fighting scene right by the end and the little details they have added in there. I guess it's "Torture Ink with the Idea that Goop!4 May Happen" day but hey, I'm so normal about it (no I'm not). I've been a bit stressed since finals are coming up so I'm thankful for anything this episode for me.
(If anyone is curious, the WOTFI website is still up and yes, I am logging its status just in case.)
I'm sure everyone is going crazy over this...
"They gay fr :3" [BenJoJoGV, Twitter]

Autistic Anime Boys Side B Round 1 Match 15
Tumblr media
Propaganda:
Kaito -
"Can we please vote for the blue man and his cool scarf. Please.
Look at this man's face. He has autism swag, AND he's blue AND he sings! He's friends with Hatsune Miku, and he lives in your computer!! (Maybe).
He's the first male Vocaloid to be developed, and when first released he was considered a 'failure' due to the fact that he was not as popular as his female counterpart. This has changed since, and he is now more popular!!"
Ranpo -
"He's a narcissistic man-child, but you can't help but love him anyway. He really grows on you after you start getting into his tragic backstory of being an orphan at 14, then getting kicked out of the police academy for being too smart. The anime all but says he's autistic, with his adopted father figure acknowledging that Ranpo is much more intelligent than most people, and sees the world very differently."

For the idea ask game, would you do Mîm and Maedhros, please?
This got a bit long... ups, but thanks for the ask :) <3, made me think about the dwarves as a whole a bit more
Mîm:
First impression: Something is fundamentally wrong with this guy for forgiving his son's murderer and simping (?) over said murder...
Impression now: I hate him so much okay? Like that little bastard tried to kill Finrod in his sleep! AND!! And betrayed Túrin and Beleg!
Favorite moment: The three hunters original!! No, never mind, he betrayed them because of his dislike for his son's murderer´s situationship… - I think it´s a bit funny that he was so jealous of Túrin´s love I believe it was a platonic obsession born from the need for control for Beleg, he might just be one of the first "if I can´t have you no one can"
Idea for a story: Redemption Túrin gets to kill him, instead of Húrin, right before dying as he takes Mîm in trying to claim the treasure for himself, and Mîm´s course gets so much more fucked up because it gets mixed with Túrin´s own.
Unpopular opinion: His curse wasn´t swag enough. I love angst okay? It would have been so cool if we had more stories about the cursed treasures, more than just the Nauglamír.
Favorite relationship: Death :) I would like to know more about the petty dwarves, so I guess his family ties...?? Although, I think it was a bit... complicated... with his sons at least...
Favorite headcanon: Upon his death Glaurung let some of his power out which Mîm somehow got maybe because he was the most wicked near?? that made him able to cast such a precise and powerful curse.
Maedhros:
First impression: First born of a "mad" king? I know to many fairitales to know how this is going to end, but I do like tall ginger dudes with long hair :)
Impression now: Favorit depressed ginger elf I want to throw against the wall as a bouncy ball. He´s a horrible guy, but man I love his tragic story and his tries for redemption (?) before realizing it´s all hopeless... I love him so much, one of my favorit.
Favorite moment: "A king is he that can hold his own or else his title is vain" like this little fucker grew up in a political world, and he has seen so much shit and he will not take any more!! I just love how ready he is to mock people and call them out on their BS. - although I think the quote carries a bit more than that, I don´t think Maedhros is mocking Thingol, even though that is who he speaks about. Thingol IS Lord of Beleriand, as all Sindar heed him, so I think Maedhros with his little speech managed to both get people over on his side, questioning Thingol, while still acknowledging his Lordship, and mock Morgoth, all in the same breath.
Idea for a story: An AU where he didn´t give the crown to Fingolfin. Maybe they shared kingship to prevent a civil war, or maybe Fingolfin thought that as long as he at least could be the right hand of Maedhros he would do everything to prevent a civil war as none of them would survive a civil war with Morgoth still there. I don´t know, I just see a lot of potential in this kind of AU :)
Unpopular opinion: Maedhros did grow up in a politically tense environment, although I´m not sure how much he felt of it as little, and I think it affected a lot of how he sees the world and how low he is willing to go for things he wants. I don´t think he´s a nice guy, and I´m not sure I ever believe he was a nice guy, I think he´s willing to lie and kill (as is seen) to get what he wants, although he prefers the... cleaner way. I see his story as a story about how someone can fall and what reasons are behind it and what pushes the character to their actions. Just make it as tragic as possible. He´s a tragic hero to me, one who did so much, yet still failed.
Favorite relationship: Platonic or romantic, either way, Fingon. From one day I see them as platonic the next as romantic, but I love their relationship so much, like they WILL, one HAVE, save each other both from themself but also from straight up hell!
Favorite headcanon: The closest brother to him is Caranthir!! And they got even closer after Angband where Caranthir was the one to help him teach him to use his left hand, here he also learned how to sew for the first time, as he needed to do something he hadn´t been good at before to show that he wasn´t bad he just needed practice!
My impression of character...

when Ed returns from the trip we see him embarking on at the end of fma, he brings Winry a ring. this is the only thing he does to acknowledge that he proposed to her in his own autism swag way. he never admits that it's an engagement ring. Winry wears it next to her wedding ring for the rest of her life.
(Ed made that ring himself. he learned many new things and skills during his travels, but he liked to focus on crafting, working with his hands, learning to do the things he always used to accomplish with alchemy. he spent some time with a jewellery smith, far west. Ed made that ring. it felt like a hollow gesture to buy Winry something that's meant to symbolise "forever", something that's supposed to sit on the hand that crafted his literal limbs, his strength, his determination. his life. she gave him life again. it's only fair he give it back to her. equivalent exchange, or something like that. he doesn't really think in those terms anymore, not when it comes to Winry.
so, Ed made her a ring. and he thanks his lucky stars every day she wears it.)

𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐞 |ROTTMNT| (Leo X Male OC)
Tumblr media
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐮𝐫𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐆𝐚𝐦𝐞
Didn’t have time to make a drawing or anything so you get this instead from the episode
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adriaen groans, sweat forming on his body as he tosses and turns. He couldn’t get comfortable, he couldn’t sleep. Each time he closed his eyes; all he saw was the door again.
Taunting him. It was driving him insane at this point.
He opens his eyes, blinking away the fatigue that he so desperately wanted but couldn’t get. He sits up and decides to do a small wander around the lair.
He yawns and rubs his eyes, making his way to the kitchen first to grab some water. He grabs a cup and turns on the tap, only to raise his head up when he heard strange noises coming from the arcade room.
Setting aside the cup of water, he made his way to the arcade and peeks inside to see Donnie was intently focused on whatever video game he was playing. He didn’t quite understand what was happening, or if he was too tired to even care. With a small shrug, Adriaen turns away and strolls back to his bedroom.
-----
When he awoke, he was met with Leo shaking him awake. “Get changed! It’s FanCon today!” He announces, as Adriaen softly groans and nods meekly.
”Yeah, yeah.”
”I already laid out your disguise.” Leo adds, gesturing to the small pile that was on the other end of the bed “Thank you?” Adriaen tilts his head. Leo didn’t have to do that, but he wasn’t entirely complaining.
Adriaen gets out of bed, stretching. “Let me get freshen up first.” He mumbles, walking past Leo who smiles and follows him out the room. 
Leo had almost followed him into the bathroom, but luckily Adriaen closed the door to prevent the slider from adventuring further. “I’ll go make you some coffee.” Leo said from the other side, a hum of acknowledgment escaping Adriaen’s mouth.
He turns on the shower, waiting for the right temperature and steps in. Sighing out in relief at the water hitting his green skin. Turtles and their water were like babies and their pacifiers.
After cleaning himself and brushing his teeth, Adriaen exits the bathroom, towel wrapped around his hips and quickly made his way back to his room, where he got changed into the disguise for FanCon.
It was literally the same disguise he wore when he and the brothers were having that weird dance battle in Times Square with those mascots that turned out to be bugs.
He then puts on his black mask.
Leaving his room, he took sight of the coffee on the table for him, quickly grabbing it and gulping it down. He really needed that.
 “Everyone here?” Raph announces, walking in with Leo and Mikey in tow, all three wearing their own disguises. Raphael wore a yellow Jupiter Jim suit while Leo and Mikey wore what they did at Times Square too.
”Uh, where’s Don?” Adriaen spoke up, tilting his head as the others look around in confusion. They heard the sound of video game noises from the arcade, so naturally they followed the said noises and enter inside, seeing Donnie sitting on the floor, game controller in hand as his eyes were glued to the TV.
"Donnie, have you been playing all night?" Raph questioned, and Donnie responded in a blunt tone. “Yes, this is the greatest game of all time. Stop talking to me." He snaps lightly, as everyone stared at the screen.
It was a blocky pixelated game, where Donnie’s game character was jumping on things and receiving coins.
“Really, this?” Leo judged, beside him stood Adriaen who had his arms crossed. “Are those seriously the graphics?” He muttered out loud, watching the soft-shell mutant grin a bit manically. 
“Oh, yes! Rank is rising. Oh, I gotta make it to number one, baby!”
The brothers and Adriaen share a brief look of worry. "Well, let's go get dressed. If we're late to FanCon, we'll miss out on the Jupiter Jim swag." Raph reasons but Donnie wasn’t budging.
"I'll meet you there. I'm earning the purple points to unlock sweet upgrades."
“Uh...are you okay? Atomic Lass is gonna be there. She’s your favorite character from the extended Jupiter Jim Universe." Mikey voiced out as Raph nods in agreement, “She and JJ haven’t spoken since—“ He was cut off by Mikey who placed his hands over his head.
“We don't speak of that.”
Adriaen sighs and walks over to Donnie, hand on his shoulder. “Come on, before your brothers get antsy and force me to listen to their rants in JJ.” He states, trying to pull Donnie away but the purple masked mutant only crawls over to the TV.
"Gotta make it to number one." He softly and eerily murmured, face planting on the screen and licking it.
"I know I say this a lot about Donnie, but demon possession!" Leo spoke up, pointing at his brother who gave an annoyed huff and look, sitting back down.
"I'm fine..."
The four turtles' glance at each other before they leave Donnie alone, Adriaen tempted to try again to get Donnie to leave with them, but he was dragged away by Leo.
-----
Adriaen and the others returned later that night, heading back to the arcade in the lair where they last saw Donnie.
Donnie never showed up to the FanCon, so Leo brought back a mini souvenir for him. 
"What a night, baby!”
“Once in a lifetime."
"We just shared a life changing experience.”
Adriaen hums back to the brothers, if he was totally honest, he hadn’t exactly paid much attention at the Con. Mostly because he wasn’t a fan of JJ, and he was completely exhausted. If anything, he spent most of his time at the coffee vendor to keep awake.
”Donnie, you’re never gonna believe what just happened. I know It’ll never make up for it, but we got you a Jupiter Jim figure with real chopping action." Leo informs but he stops in surprise as did everyone else when they all notice Donatello’s new look.
He was wearing a lumberjack outfit. 
"Ten! So close to one. Nothing is going to stop Bootyshaker9000." Donnie cackled, not noticing he had company. Raph walks over and got in front of the TV, causing Donnie to yelp and start hissing like a cat.
"Move! Move! Hiss!”
Mikey leans over to the Adriaen to whisper, “He’s like you when you were feral.” He compared, making Adriaen lightly narrow his eyes at the comparison and pushed Mikey away from him for space.
“Dude, you okay? You’re dressed up like lumberjack." Raph inquired, Donnie smirking proudly at his new look. "It’s a new upgrade I unlocked. Not many have." He announces, hand against his cheek to lean as Leo slides over to him, inspecting the outfit.
“How’d you pay for that gear? Donnie, how’d you pay for that gear?"
The soft shell didn’t speak but he did slowly glance to the side. Adriaen followed his gaze where he saw a broken piggy bank.
He grew a bit cold, racing off to his room as he silently begged that his own piggy bank was still secured.
“…..Donnie!”
Adriaen was seething, eye twitching as Donnie had broken not just his piggy bank, but everyone else’s. They gathered in Mikey’s room who was wailing dramatically.
"He destroyed Mrs Porky Coin! I will avenge her!”
Adriaen watches Mikey and scowls, picturing his own destroyed piggy bank in his room. He wasn’t mad that it was broken, it was a cheap thing anyway. He was only peeved that Donnie actually took his money.
“And he doesn’t seem to care; he misses a literal once in a lifetime experience.” Leo friend before holding a hand over his plastron, “That lady in a wheelchair walked." He adds, gripping onto Adriaen’s leg who was nearby.
”I’m gonna kill him.”
Adriaen was blunt, Raphael chuckling a little nervously as he patted the mutant on the shoulder. “Maybe don’t. But, uh, let’s see…what do you do if someone you love is obsessed with something that’s bad for them?" The oldest mutters out loud, thinking of what to do.
”I can hit him.”
���Adriaen, no.”
-----
In the living room, Raph was holding an iPad, everyone gathering around as he smiles happily at himself. “So, we read every internet doctor article on how to treat Recreational game obsession mania."
“Re-gom!”
"I just read the comments."
Adriaen backs up, hands on hips with a deadpan stare. “I still think my idea was good.” He noted, as he desperately wanted to give Donnie a smack across the face.
Raph rolls his and shook his head, “Well now that we read this article. We’re all experts." He assured, but his attention was focused back on the iPad when a video appeared.
A video of someone pointing at a giant robotic mech was screaming as the said robot was destroying the city.
“Giant mech! Maybe some action will snap Donnie out of it. You think?" Raph gasps, turning to Leo and telling him to fetch Donnie from the arcade room.
Adriaen stared at the video, tilting his head in confusion. How did a giant mech even get into New York City? Surely, they must’ve at least heard it.
He failed to notice that everyone went to retrieve the video game maniac as Adriaen was reading about the giant mech. When the boys returned, Mikey explained that Donnie was going to meet them topside.
”Something tells me that’s not going to happen.” Adriaen grumbled, putting the iPad away as he takes off the FanCon gear, sticking to his usual outfit. The rest doing the sand before they each climb up the ladder and uncover the manhole cover.
The mech luckily wasn’t that far away from them. Running a few blocks and jumping on roofs, they halt and stare up at the robot who was layering buildings.
Donnie however was nowhere to be seen. To their surprise, Shelldon flies over to them. 
"Sup guys? Donnie couldn't make it, I'm New Donnie. Obscure science reference set with total confidence."
Raph blinks before screaming out his brothers name in annoyance. 
"Donnie!"
Leo chuckled playfully, "I like new Donnie." He teases as Adriaen nudged him, “You are not helping.” He scolds, flicking his forehead, making the slider briefly wince and rub at the spot he was flicked at.
“That's huge! Looks like we've got a new mech villain on the scene." Mikey exclaims, smirking eagerly but then yelps in fear when the robot fires a single laser towards them, making the group dodge and then run toward it.
“Attack!”
They jumped onto the mech and started punching and slicing at it. Doing no damage to the mech really. Shelldon flies over and Adriaen gazed over to the AI.
"Shelldon, can you get a reading on who might be driving this mech?"
"Nah, and I'm new Donnie. Remember that, Uncle Adriaen.”
”What? Since when am I your unc—“
Adriaen grunts when the mech suddenly flung him off, as it did with the others. Adriaen landing on top of Leo as they both groan from the impact.
“Ow…okay, that hurt.” Leo sits up, as Adriaen crawls off his lap, sitting down next to him. “Tell me about it…ugh, my head.” He grumbled, perking up as Mikey strolled forward.
"Let's see who's inside, guys! Cowabunga!"
Mikey spun his whip and ran toward the robot's arm, jumping on it and successfully got to the head of the robot, opening it up.
Adriaen stands up, helping Leo to his feet as he pulls him aside to hide behind a car that Raph was using for cover. Mikey At some point had been flung off the machine and crashed to the floor, coughing as he stared at the older mutants.
"Donnie's controlling the mech!"
Adriaen widens his eyes at the information, looking up at the machine. “He’s what now? How is that possible—“ He paused and groans, running a hand down his face.
”It’s that damn game he’s playing, isn’t it?”
Leo only chuckled, patting Adriaen on the head to ease his growing discomfort. “You're telling me that big ugly thing is Donnie? Ha-ha. I’ve so got this." he assured, junking out from the hiding spot as the others remain behind the car.
"How, what? Leo, what are you doing?" Raphael inquired Adriaen softly squinted his eyes at the slider. “You’re going to get yourself hurt.” He calls out but Leo could only wave off their comments and gave Adriaen a wink.
"Trust me, I've got a genius plan.” He clears his thrust before waving his arms around. “Aye Donnie it's us, your brothers and Adriaen!”
Scratch that, he’s going to get himself killed.
The robot started to prepare a laser at him, Leo sweating anxiously at the sight of the bright light. “Okay, that's not good." He squeaks out, Adriaen quickly dived out the hiding spot, taking Leo’s hand and forcing him into a sprint.
Mikey and Raph following after the two as the mechanic robot continued to shoot lasers.
The group managed to get away as in the distance the robot was firing the lasers in the air.
“We gotta' get a message to Donnie." Raph exclaims, his younger brother tilting his head in confusion. "How? He's not responding to anything!” He asks, until Leo thought of an idea.
“What about our Recreational Game Obsession Mania Training?"
"RE-GOMT, that's it!"
Adriaen looks between the two, “How is that going to help us?” He questioned the two, flinching slightly when Mikey plunged into his shell. “Yes, we can have a heart to heart with him about how his gaming is hurting us!" He exclaimed but Raph smirks and shook his head.
"No. I'm gonna use his obsession against him. Time for an upgrade!"
Leo looks towards Mikey and Adriaen, deadpanning slightly. "I think we're bad people." He noted, Adriaen shrugging and prying Mikey off him. “At this point, I don’t care. We need Donnie to stop.” 
The mechs fist crashed down, making them scream and take off for shelter. Raphael calling out to the flying AI.
"Shelldon!"
"It's new Donnie."
"Whatever! Can you hook my phone up to that thing so I can get Donnie a message?"
Shelldon nods his little head, zooming over to the mech and attaching himself to the face of the robot.
Raph had his phone out, waiting for it to connect. When it finally does, the snapper immediately glared at the screen.
“Donnie, the mech is real! Stop playing the game, Donnie!"
No response from Donnie, but Adriaen did see how the mech had halted its walking and was instead rubbing the back of its head.
"Donnie! Stop! The game is real!"
The phone disconnects as the brothers and Adriaen stare up silently at the robot. It looked as though it was shut down, which was making both Adriaen relieved and anxious.
“So did it work?” Leo muttered, and on cue the mech stands back up. “You had to ask!” Adriaen scolds, Leo sheepishly smiling.
"Do you think he knows we like new Donnie better?" Mikey added before they all yelp and run away when the neck chased after them.
Adriaen took out his kama’s, throwing them at the robot, as he controlled on where they were hitting. But it was doing no damage.
He clicks his tongue in annoyance, the kama’s flying back to his grasp.
They reach a rooftop to get some kind of distance, but the mech was hot on their tails.
"Uh oh..."
Using its right hand, the robot punches the group, but when the smoke cleared, they were gone. A portal opened from above.
“I guess we got to hit it harder. Bootyyyshakker, time to meet face kicker." Raph announces, as he and the others fall out from the portal that Leo created.
Raphael creates his mystic aura around himself along with Mikey, Adriaen and Leo on his shoulders. The mech however blocked his fist and grabbed them with its other hand. 
The group whimpering when got squeezed. 
“Donnie, you gotta stop this..." Leo groans before choking out a gasp as the robot could only squeeze them more.
"I love you and your gaming is hurting me. Like literally hurting me!" Leo shouts out in hopes Donnie could hear him. Adriaen wanted to say something, but he was feeling lightheaded. The oxygen being slowly cut off from him.
Oh, I’m not going to make it…
He starts closing his eyes, hearing the others yell out his name but it was all too muffled for him to properly hear.
“Don’t….out!”
”Adri!”
”Stay awake…don’t…!”
What are they all saying? Can’t I just…rest for a moment?
Before anything could happen, the robot suddenly glitched and the squeeze had stopped. Donnie arrived on a flying chair that he was strapped into, gaming controller in hand.
"Cheat code baby! Let's finish this!"
He puts on his goggles by whipping his head forward, as a large laser emerges from the staff of his tech bō. It fires onto the robot's face, sending a massive explosion.
The robot lets go of the now unconscious Raph, Leo, Adriaen and Mikey. Donnie flew down to check on them with utter panic in his eyes.
"Guys. Guys. Are you okay?"
The turtles slowly regained consciousness, covered with wounds.
Mikey grabs Donnie’s plastron, straining himself. "You hurt Mrs. Porky coin. I will have my—uhhh....” He tried to threaten but slides down out of exhaustion and pain.
Donnie uses his mechanical arms to grab them gently and pull the four in a hug.
"I'm just glad you guys are safe, and you don't know how sorry I am. I will never....” He begins to apologise until he sees a new game on the billboard.
”Oh, Purple Game 2?! I must have it!"
He lets go of the others who all glare at the soft shell.
Adriaen who had a clear head, walks in front of Donnie and have him a reality check by slapping his face.
”Ow! Okay, I deserve that.”
“Ya think?”
Adriaen sighs, wincing briefly in pain as he looks back at the others. “Can we go home now? I have a bed with my name on it calling for me.”
The others all nod in agreement, Raph helping Mikey to stand and walk him back to the sewers. Donnie, still trapped in the chair, flies over the two, keeping an eye out.
Leo walks forward to follow but stops when he heard a familiar grunt, followed by a thud. He quickly runs over to see it was Adriaen who collapsed onto his hands and knees.
”Come on. Let me help you up.” Leo gently smiles, grabbing Adriaen’s arm and pulling him up, before he wraps Adriaen’s arm around his shoulder so the mutant could lean on the blue masked turtle.
”Thanks…”
”Any time. Want me to help you with the shower again?”
Adriaen blushed softly at the memory but slowly nods. “Yeah…I’d like that.”

look LOOK ok i was joking before but the more i think about it the more real Ms Flood being Iris/an Iris Wildthyme expy is to me like I've fully convinced myself at this point.
like i have SUPPORTING EVIDENCE it MAKES SENSE to me. its not gonna happen but also after that fucking finale i am willing to believe anything...
FIRST of all RTD took so much stuff from the books during his first run, including having River as she is originally written as a Bernice expy (proof he would take characters from extended universe media) and the whole time war coming straight from the eighth doctor adventures (proof he would take inspo from the EDAs). THEREFORE....iris originally being from the EDAs means shes within his purview. so its not impossible and im not TJLCing myself and you cant accuse me of such
point number two -> i think her introductory book (Scarlet Empress) has a lot of thematic resonance with this first season re: all the stuff about stories, narrative, audiences, observation, etc. been a while since i read it so its not as fresh in my mind but theres a Lot going on in that book about stories, and about the form of Doctor Who itself, about it being a cyclical, self-referential thing that endlessly iterates on itself. iris literally retcons herself into the doctors life by telling him about adventures theyve gone on together that he swears never happened, until he finds himself remembering them. the story comes from the POV of an unknown and unseen audience going through her various recordings and writings of the events. reality is created from fiction. reality is made slightly more fictional. the artifice of the Entire Series isnt necessarily addressed, but is sort of gestured at with nodding and eyebrow wiggling. all in all, very fitting, i think.
and as for what we've seen of Flood so far we can certainly check off addressing the audience, being rude in a familial sort of way, boozing it up, knowledge of TARDISes, and swag fur coat outfits. also VERY much of note is her suitcase covered in travel stickers of places the Doctors been, which is again totally in line with how Iris is written in Scarlet Empress, existing in a sort of parallel, not-quite-mutually-exclusive canon where she was the one who did all of the big things the doctors done, while acknowledging that he has also been responsible for the exact same events. and if you really want to get crazy you can take the Prominent Old-Style Double Decker Bus with Suspicious Numbering in that one post-apocalyptic scene in the Devil's Chord.
anyways if anything happens that could even make it look like im a tiny bit right i will become unmanageable.

Total drama except Harold is outwardly a bitch instead of hiding his distain for others until they personally attack him or are just too damn annoying
Or, more interestingly, he pulls a rachel Berry and sucks up to Chris and/or chef for half the season so that he can get anybody he wants eliminated with some fake tears and a sob story painting them as some violent irredeemable monster (does it work? Meeeeeeh)
Did we watch the same Total Drama? Harold is outwardly a hater.
He's not exactly quiet about his dislike for certain people, and he's very open about his opinions on near-enough everything. Harold literally gets the whole cast thrown out of a jet at one point because he won't shut up and stop being a little bitch - it's an integral part of his character, and an even more crucial aspect of his autistic charm and loserboy swag.
Him pulling a Rachel Berry, however, is a very different interpretation of him. Both as a character in his own right, and the archetypes he plays into.
(I did have to google who Rachel Berry is, as I haven't watched Glee - assuming this is the character you were referring to.)
Because he's supposed to be, in-universe, kind of an unlikable wet noodle. Having him endear himself to Chris, Chef and (assumedly) the audience at large so he can sway the competition in his favour would be A Task, and not an easy one at that.
Because he's (in-universe) not charismatic in the slightest, despite living under the impression that he is. Remember; Harold sees himself as a cool guy with a lot of cool talents - to the point that he quite often comes across as egotistical - whilst everyone around him sees him as a deluded dweeb. He's not quite self-aware enough to play into his dorky charm or tone down the more annoying aspects of his personality to be more generally likable, since he's entirely unaware (or just uncaring) about how he's percieved by others.
Harold is unapologetically himself. Oftentimes to his own detriment.
You'd have to completely scrap that part of his character, or at the very least change it considerably, to have him commit himself to sucking up to Chris and Chef. Because there's no way canon Harold would ever do that; not only would it be "an insult to someone of his multi-talented caliber" (or some other explaination along those lines that's equally as nerdy), but it'd also mean he'd be acknowledging that he needs to use underhanded tactics like flattery to give himself a fighting chance upper hand in the competition. Canon Harold is very self-assured, and likely wouldn't believe he'd need the advantage of favouritism to win.
Plus, even if he did decide to try this line of action, I can't really imagine it playing out much differently than Sierra's brief stint as Chris' favourite competitor; that is to say, it's end with him being seen as more of a nuisance than he is in canon. Harold has a chronic case of foot-in-mouth disease, and his frequent faux pas would do more to enrage Chris than any level of sucking up could possibly hope to fix. Just look at his first interaction with Leshawna. She was forgiving enough to see past his awkwardness. Chris wouldn't be.
Harold's annoyingness and awkwardness and weirdness is so constitutional to his character that I can't personally see him ever having enough social literacy to pull of a scheme like that.
Now, Beth on the other hand-
