Reality collision where Billy shows up to school one day with a baby. No one knows who the kid is or why Billy showed up with him; but he waits to corner Steve in the parking lot. Shoves the baby into his arms unceremoniously all - "Take your spawn Harrington."

Steve's never seen this baby in his life, and if anything it looks like Billy. Brown hair sure, but the eyes,chin, and those ears are all Hargrove. He's confused even more when Billy starts babbling about holes opening up on the walls and what sounds like demo-dogs, which he shouldn't even know about!

One thing he is sure of, he definitely didn't get attacked by a demo-dog last night or run into Billy's car out near the powerplant. He definitely didn't give Billy this baby and ask him to take care of it, but someone did.

AKA Billy and Steve get stuck temporarily taking care of their alternate reality baby and it brings them together.

What is your OC's biggest, but also strangest, insecurity?

So I’m gonna say something crazy… but have you ever considered that maybe, just maybe… and hear me out… the core four group in the show about “outcasts and wierdos” ISN’T supposed to have a straight-white-able-bodied-all-american male that people from that group can easily project on to? That maybe the straight-white-male audience might have to contend with the fact that they find relatability in characters who are black, disabled, or gay? That MAYBE there isn’t supposed to be this pov character that easily fits into these conventions that they’ve been so used to seeing in popular media but that’s also kind of the point?

sorry to be starfield posting but damn something about sam coe living his life shouldering the pressure of an overwhelming legacy he feels both proud and bitter towards only to beat the cycle of expectations by bringing cora with him to explore the galaxy and giving her the freedom to choose what she wants to do with her life without the weight his father put on him to do the family name right just hits different

I'm not saying transgender dysphoria blues is the best album to ever exist, but also that's exactly what I'm saying and if you disagree you can fuck off

Oh... oh no... I think I've just plotted out an entire AU story. Like, it's big. And I really want to write it. But I told myself no new stories until Train fic was done!! But if I wait and the inspiration fizzles!? Ugggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

i hate the dishonesty of applying for jobs. i hate the theater of it. i hate the way you're supposed to bend and twist and reword your experience in a way that it doesn't even tell anyone what you actually did, what you can actually do. i hate the contradictory advice and the dishonest postings and the repetitive questions and every single placation you receive when you know no one even looked at your resume.

i'm a writer but fuck this isn't writing this is sales so is it any wonder that it feels like i'm selling myself and selling myself and selling myself and hating every moment of it and wishing people would look away and wishing desperately someone would pull out their damn wallet?

i'm so fucking tired

anyways I love love love how badly Gerald’s pep talk to Ylfa went. Because it forces him to confront that his actions, his words, don’t exist in a vacuum. His own constant insults to his “monstrous” appearance and bemoaning how he looks, is also an insult to his other “monstrous” friends. His friends who this is significantly less “temporary” for. And it’s great to see him have to confront that in the form of a young girl who has internalized these ideas of beauty and ugly from people like Gerald. And like it or not, her self doubt is partly his fault, because he hates himself for being how he is, and he can’t say anything back when Red brings that up.

Maybe I’m giving him too much credit but I don’t know if Jonathan purposefully took a picture if Nancy with her top off. She was mid action in the photo and that’s a film camera. He wouldn’t know what the photo exactly looks like until the film developed. Shortly after Nancy removed her shirt he shifted attention to Barb. I was waiting for him to snap another photo while she was making out with Steve because that’s what the GA wants us to believe but it never happened.

it's been a strange arc so far

when I was 19-21 and having an extremely imbalanced relationship with someone in their mid 30s I was like 'we are both adults so the fact that this is fucking me up is my fault'

when I hit my late 20s and saw how young people in their late teens and early 20s seem now I was like 'oh wait I was so fucking young I didn't know shit about my own limits or about managing relationships and I don't know why someone in their mid to late 30s would be into that except for nefarious purposes'

the weird bit is now I'm into my 30s - not even that far into my 30s - and while I still wholeheartedly believe that last thing about how young (and self destructive) 20 year olds are, I'm also kind of like 'huh, actually nobody I know that age has their shit remotely together and frankly the reason this fucked me up is because NEITHER of us knew what the fuck we were doing it how to cope, for different reasons and at different life stages, and there probably wasn't any malice or intent to control as much as there was Blind Flailing.'

If there is gonna be a new unsung hero then does that mean that there will be a new lord of chaos???

They're both tied to the doodle in the prophecy. Which would explain why Normal can still communicate with the doodler, despite "getting the short end of the stick" according to Nick.

To be fair, it could be either of the oak kids. I feel like Normal could be the unsung hero (sorry Sparrow, names don't seal fates) but most likely, I really see him as the lord of chaos because no matter how hard he tries, Norm will never be normal.
