Day 300 of posting Jevil every day

Uhhhh very late miwip wednesday? it is thursday.

I've had this au—Will as Robin, El as Batgirl, Mike as Spoiler + a few more Hawkins characters as Bats but I'll leave the rest a mystery for now—rattling around in my brain for like a week, and I don't know if I'll ever actually write out the full longfic idea I have for it, but I'll at least post snippets and some doodles 👍

Text under the cut if the images are hard to read hehe:

—

“I know I did it to you when we first met,” the sound of boots hitting the rooftop echoes behind him, “But it’s really not proper vigilante etiquette to take off someone else’s mask.” 

Mike whips around to face him—Robin, The Boy Wonder. While he’s figured out who the new Batgirl is, he hasn’t got a clue about this guy. Unless maybe it’s not just El—maybe all the Bats are connected to the lab? Robin could be a number, too.

He stares at the other boy, lost in thought, not sure what to say. 

When it must fully register that his comment isn’t getting a response, Robin shrugs and retracts his grapple, clicking it into place on his utility belt as he steps closer out of the shadows.

Mike quickly puts his mask back on, just for something to do with his hands, something to interrupt his gawking at least for a second. When he looks again, there’s now a layer between them—flimsy blue fabric that makes it a little less clear that he’s still staring. 

But how could he not? The two of them have only really met twice—when Robin had tackled him not realizing The Spoiler is a new hero not a villain, and when Robin had come to his window the following night telling him to hang up his cape. So really, this is the first time Mike can stop and take him in without some sense of urgency bleeding into the situation. The first time he can just… look.

His mask is a deep green leather molded into a sort of beak, and despite leaving a decent amount of his face uncovered, it conceals what could really be identifying—his eyes, his nose, parts of his cheeks. His warm smile is visible though, and Mike can’t help that his eyes are drawn to it. It’s just the part of his face I can see, he tells himself, but maybe that’s not the only reason. 

Robin runs a gloved hand through his gelled-back hair, a chestnut brown that Mike bets would glisten in sunlight. But Robin isn’t someone you see during the day. Bats only come out at night in Hawkins, even ones who wear bright colors. Red, yellow, and green—he’s like a traffic light.

Only now while glancing up and down as he crosses the rooftop, does Mike really register how small a guy Robin is, noticeably shorter than Mike himself. But regardless, he still moves with confidence, it makes his presence seem larger somehow—wise beyond his years.

Anyone else have near-perfect executive function at work; but at home, have literally no energy or motivation to do anything except lie in a dark room, with something in or on your ears for several hours?

you know what I’ve realized lately? that’s really helped? the axiom: it just doesn’t really make that much of a difference. Or at least it doesn’t when you’re talking about good things and not, like, doing good vs. doing evil. Big choices, little choices, decisions, decisions —it’s not just that they don’t matter in the grand scheme of things—because they do! —but just. It won’t make that big of a difference. Life will continue to be wonderful AND difficult, fascinating AND hopelessly mundane, full of roses AND thorns and all the other cliches whether you walk down one road or another. And you’ll get used to the joys and sick of the sorrows whatever they are, and you’ll be ungrateful and bored and dissatisfied in some measure some of the time and you’ll have to work on all the things you have to work on anyways and just. Yeah! It doesn’t make that big of a difference! Even the biggest things!

I can go on that ramble about the future and housing and aromanticism though now. It’s like man, the future is already something that is so inconceivable to me. To then have the sexuality that does not allow me to slot in the cookie cutter you find a romantic partner that you end up moving in with is terrible. And like In this economy I sure can’t live alone, and I know at least when I’m sick I desperately want someone to be there. And then there’s I’m likely to move around a bunch how do you deal with that housing, other than the work having paid housing. like constantly having to find somewhere that’s looking for roommates and it isn’t terrible? And then long term, when I find a job I stay at for a while (that’s remote so I’d love to live in a remote place) is it like I find a place to stay and then I’m stuck there forever and I just have to hope that I make good friends at this new place. (Friends that don’t want to live exclusively with a romantic partner no less.) I want to live with close friends so bad and I’m not sure if that’s a feasible thing for my future. I’m a person that has so much hope so I have to assume that yes it will work out, I do believe that. But man just hearing someone mention it, sparks that hope.

ahh thank you!! <33 i love chatting with you too :D i love how you always have so many ideas and so much to say.

i've watched jjk0! it. i definitely cried a lot... i'm watching all of jjk with two of my friends and our schedules have been so unsynced recently, we haven't gotten together in like 3 months? and it took us a solid 3 months just to finish season 1... im quaking in my boots excited for season 2 so i'll definitely let you know once i watch it! episode 5's premise makes me so sad though, i've seen some the screencaps/suguru's dialogue and it just makes me want to give him a million big hugs... i wish someone had taken care of him :(

the "couple aesthetic hoodie hug" is killing me omfg.. it's helpful to know the struggle behind the moodboard... also THE GOJO FIGURE??/ your cat is so cute omg... would you ever consider showing your collection? i know you have a kenny plush. i thought that was it. 🌖

I CRIED SO MUCH TOOO :(((( takahiro sakurai’s delivery on geto’s final line is genuinely enough to get me crying he’s …. so good. scandal aside. AND I TOTALLYYYY GET IT ANON that’s exactly how it goes when i watch anime w my siblings lmao…. i hope you and your friends get to experience s2 sometime soon !! :33 it ruined my life but it’s also the best thing ever

ANDDD ….. my collection . yes. i actually only started seriously collecting merch recently so it’s not super impressive but!!!! i’m working on it :3 here r some pics!!!! try to guess my favorite character(s) challenge (impossible)……. it’s stsg

^ i hug these four to sleep every night <333

also!!!! :3 this isn’t jjk related but i literally just bought some super adorable maomao pins and i love them SO much. she makes me so happy </3

[milo-is-rambling]

I think I’m always going to be running and trying to find the next thing that will make me happy and it will always be something I have to find within myself. So that’s cool.

[napping-sapphic]

ohh but they are so prettyyyyy!! i really liked them and they are very creative! how did you make the beads fit in like that?? i want to try and make bracelets sometime too!

Thank youuu😭❤️❤️ i’m happy you like them <33333

They’re really easy so i definitely recommend it if anyone just wants some simple crafts to occupy them :) they’re simple enough that i’ve been making them while watching subbed anime like they are a very good low-focus sit and multitask craft

They’re made with this kind of set-up! Two long strands folded in half and knotted together so you’re working with four strands - two in the middle and one on either side. You just sort of weave the two on the sides around the two in the middle to make the bracelet and to add beads you just string them onto the middle two strands and put them in between your ties as you go :)

let me just say that tdpi is one of my least favorite seasons and I deeply dislike most of its canon events, but the cast is one of my favorites to write and analyze
