Happy birthday Peter Lorre! For this day I decided to make a comic tribute where I imagine what Lorre does in his afterlife. I hope you liked it, and I hope he likes this little 'tribute' ;-)

My other piece for @sandersidesbigbang, this one's for @thefuzzzz's fic, "The Reverse Shakespearean Experience"!

Characters: Roman and Virgil

Rating: PG (kissing)

[ID] A digital drawing of Roman and Virgil on a stage. They are wearing black pants and shoes and Renaissance-era like tops. Roman is in a red vest, with a white frilly collar and long-sleeved shirt underneath. Virgil similarly is in a collared shirt, but his is purple. Roman and Virgil are kissing. Roman has a hand on Virgil’s hip and the other on the back of his head, while Virgil’s hands rest on Roman’s chest. They are standing at an angle so that you see more of Roman’s front and Virgil’s back, and their faces are obscured.

The stage around them is colored in blues, browns, and purples, and includes a spiral staircase to the left of the image. To the right are some wooden structures, and some translucent windows behind, with the suggestion of more stage behind them. There is also a spotlight shining on Virgil and Roman.

James Bonde is a role, not a character

I need to analyze stuff right now, buckle up.

James Bonde was a role created the actress formerly known as Irene Adler before Adler's "death". Bonde is Agent 007 of MI6, a slightly eccentric, flirty man with innovative, unconventional ideas.

Three years after William and Sherlock jumped off a bridge together (whoa whoa, yeah~ shinjuu wa, hitori de wa, dekinai~ futuri nara, dekiru~), MI6 is investigating a series of murders committed by a sniper, who turned out to be Moran. At that point, Sherlock comes back to help MI6 stop Moran. Moniepeny temporarily takes the role of James Bonde so that Irene Adler can be Irene. As far as I can tell, Irene doesn't go back to being Bonde after that mission, meaning Bonde is a role that can be played by whoever is convenient.

Star Trek: Picard- Nostalgia is the only thing that matters. Specifically, cis-het white middle class middle age nostalgia.

Star Trek: Prodigy- Nostalgia degrades over time, and is almost always inaccurate. Nostalgia can literally poison a fandom.

THEY FUCKING LANDED ON A PLANET WHERE PEOPLE TALK LIKE WILLIAM SHATNER AND WORSHIP THE FEDERATION - BUT THEY GET EVERYTHING JUST A LITTLE WRONG BECAUSE NOSTALGIA IS BASED ON WHAT YOU THINK SOMETHING WAS NOT WHAT IT REALLY IS

NOSTALGIA IS LITERALLY POISONING THE PLANET AND KILLING OFF ALL THE 'FANS' OF THE ENTERPRISE

What are the Many-nettes opinions on Adrien/Chat Noir? Do they hate him? Still consider him a friend?

Most of the Many-nettes don't hate him, like they may be angry with him but they don't hate him. At most they just consider him an ex-friend. Though some argue maybe an ex-acquaintance.

Negative-nette is the one who holds a lot of resentment towards him. The others try to point out how "jumped-up" the slights he made were in Negative-nette's eyes, but of course, she doesn't listen. She loathes him.

The others just kind of shake their heads at Negative-nette because they are each other and understand her anger, but they also acknowledge that her anger and bitterness and sadness have reached unreasonable levels.

The Cullens get roped into mandatory high school extracurricular / after-school club attendance, stuff like theater or band etc etc. What do they each sign up for?

(I'm guffawing at the image of Edward signing up for Track and Field because he's "fast" and then never admitting he regrets it because he has to pretend to be slow, btw. Do you think he'd go for it?)

I have no better answer than @kalink's All the World's a Stage, in which the Cullen family signs up for a school play and only Renesmee gets a part.

Edward takes this very personally.

Star Trek Prodigy "All the World's a Stage"

[soapkaars]

scanned a page from my sketchbook of a design I had banging around in my head for a while. I've seen these figures off and on in my dreams, and I've started calling them 'the hounds'. They're like stagehands, except reality is the stage. If you look closely enough, you'll see them rearranging the world around you: they replace the leaves to show the seasons changing, they roll in curtains to have the night fall, that car is replaced by a wreck, that person flying through the air is held up by them... I imagine that people who can do magic simply know how to instruct these hounds better than anyone else.

While they may be literal faceless goons, they have individuality like anyone else. For them, this is just a job, and they've been doing it for a long time. Don't try to talk to them - you're part of the act, you're not supposed to break character. Bad things happen when you break character! You're allowed to break the fourth wall, that's fine, but never break character. I suppose someone may become a hound when they die.

The Exorcist (1973)

[azi-reviews]

SCREAMING at how good The Prince is!!!! If you've ever wanted to save characters from the narrative set out for them... if you've ever broken free of your own narrative... this is for you.

Once upon a time, a little over a year ago, from the mind of one Conor Duffy and the Fate TTRPG system came a tale about Jean Valjean, Queen Titania, Morgan le Fay, Alice, and Christine Daae being called on to stop a thief from stealing the very power of storytelling, while having to escape Chateau Dif, defeat the Sweet Witch, and persuade the First Goddess along the way. Now in anticipation of its upcoming sequel charity stream, we gather the cast and producers to discuss what inspired the portrayals of these various characters, the nature of storytelling itself, and what makes certain stories stick with us.
