idk what we’re all calling the concept of fiddlestan working together but i’m calling my version the portal partners AU 🙏🏼

[necrotic-nephilim]

Please infodump about the JayTimSteph Grotesquerie AU WIP if possible.

OF COURSE i've been thinking about it since i saw the trailer and now it's a little brainworm. (disclaimer i've not watched the first two episodes yet, this is like. solely on the vibes of the trailer. some details might change once i. watch the show depending on if i follow it or just go with the vibes the trailer gave me. which also means there will be no spoilers for the show if you care about that.)

the current idea involves Detective!Tim, Nun!Steph, and Priest!Jason. the vague idea for the plot so far is that a serial killer leaves a *very* artful display of a crime scene inside of the church that Jason and Steph operate out of. Tim is assigned as the leading detective on the case and ends up in a relationship with the both of them as he spirals in madness trying to catch the killer.

for Steph, i want to explore the idea of her father, Cluemaster, being a *very* prolific and artful serial killer who's whole gimmick was sending clues to the police until he was caught when Steph was still a child, and her and her mother were forced to go into witness protection for their own safety, which led her down the path of becoming a nun. it was a defining childhood moment for her to walk in on one of her father's crimes, so when she's the one who finds the crime scene in the church, it *immediately* sends her back to her childhood and she's caught between PTSD-fueled horror and a sick, enticing fascination. she wanted to become a journalist before going into WITSEC but that career was basically all but ruined for her. now she runs the small newspaper for the church and is desperate to write on the first "real" story she's ever had, dragging her into an intense obsession over the crime and trying to prove she can solve it.

for Jason, i want to deal with his history as Bruce. the current idea is that Bruce is Tim's police chief who adopted Jason and Dick from a young-ish age and raised them to be detectives, taking them to crime scenes as teenagers and teaching them the ins and outs of how criminals think. it leads to Dick becoming a detective, but when taking them to crime scenes led to Jason being kidnapped and brutally tortured by "Jack Napier", almost dying. Dick kills Napier to save Jason and it fractures their little family so badly that Dick switches departments to another city and Jason runs away at 17, eventually happening upon joining the clergy. he's the new, young priest in the church who's known for being very pretty but very emotionally distant even if he's nice enough. and he's *pissed* that Bruce is in his church investigating a murder and that no matter where Jason goes, he can't seem to get away from the horrors.

and for Tim, he's the young new detective in his department who is *entirely* unaware that he's been taken under Bruce's wing bc Bruce is treating him as a surrogate replacement for Dick and Jason. haven't fully decided his backstory yet, but it'll likely be similar to canon with losing his mother and father. i kind of want him to be lost and lacking a sense of direction. very gifted in noticing patterns and detective work, but it's clear he doesn't *really* want this job. and when he's assigned as the lead on a case that feels *way* too big for his experience bc Bruce is showing clear favoritism, he's forced to go to Steph for help, which leads to Jason ending up wrapped up with them too.

despite how heavy the plot *sounds*, i honestly want this fic to be like. 40% porn. like the show i want to explore a lot of fucked up sexual interests in Jason who's punishing himself for it, Steph being too interested in things for her own good and desperate for a taste of what "real life" feels like, and Tim just being incredibly repressed. like i want the line between horror and erotic to feel like a jumprope. lots of fucked up sex balanced with like. them actually trying to catch the killer. and then of course the emotional aspect of how Jason's baggage with Bruce works into all of it. also want Tim to have a mild hero worship for "the great Detective Dick Grayson" while being clueless that he's Bruce's son and Jason's brother. i sort of want it to be Steph-centric, but still have POVs from Tim and Jason just to round out their emotional arcs. i haven't fully decided everyone else who'll be in the fic but i know i want Cass to be a fellow nun and friend of Steph's, Babs to also work at the church, Helena to be Tim's favorite coworker, and possibly for Damian to be around somehow. those roles will probably get more fleshed out when i. watch the damn show tho.

anyway TLDR: religious imagery, body horror, kinky sex, and a mystery that might break everyone psychologically once they get to the bottom of it. i have some very specific scenes and dialogue planned out. probably cannibalism as a metaphor for love thrown in there too. idk i just want these three to be as fucked up as possible and unhinged about each other but fighting their repressed side with their unhinged feral side. and since it doesn't exist by god I'll create it.

Petition to turn this GIF into the next reaction template.

I have so many thoughts about turbo as a parent and Foolish's amazing parenting skills and how Leo would've become sunny if Vegetta logged on more and how Vegetta would give Leo mines and bombs to one up sunny but at the same time have no patience for their little rivalry while also being all jealous about how tubbo has so much and gives sunny so many things as soon as she asks.

Big Bazonkas 621 is what wemre headcanoning every 621 as from now on. especially the men, good job boss

(the fact that this happened because i were too stressed out after having to draw Rusty and Iguazu's crazy mech bulges is just a cherry on top)

terfs in the replies are writing off this horrific incident and even trying to defend this kind of outburst because “this wouldn’t have happened if trans women never tried to use women’s bathrooms!”

that’s not the point. the point is this is far from the first time this has happened, and it won’t be the last. the point is this kind of reaction isn’t just hurting trans women, but it’s making cis women who don’t fit your idea of traditional white western femininity feel unsafe.

you can’t write this off as ‘collateral damage’ when you’re hurting the very people you claim you’re trying to protect. i thought you cared about cis women? that’s why you’re doing all this right? to protect them? but how many times has this reaction actually kept someone safe from a predator pretending to be a woman? now compare that to the amount of times your rhetoric has hurt innocent and vulnerable women.

so who’s actually being hurt here? is it you, because someone who might be a trans woman wanted to pee? or is it other women, who just wanted to use a public restroom in peace but couldn’t because you harassed them? those women are now scared and insecure that they look too masculine to be treated with human decency. is it really worth it?

the really beautiful landscape/skyscape animation in makoto shinkai's works tends to be the big thing i see focused on and that is understandable and deserved like the weather and lighting effects are unREAL but i do think we should also appreciate how absolute insane the plotlines of his original movies get. at least two movies with in universe catastrophes with major ecological implications. the guns and explosions. theres that one movie i havent seen yet with the guy who turns into a chair (?)

silly lil' thought dump cause i'm still here, wanna reply to messages + asks but movin' just takes FOREVER and massive amounts of energy my disabled ass definitely did not have but used anyway:

i'm challenging myself to make a digital wardrobe + tryna use more pieces in my closet so today i dressed like some bougie ballerina with the forest green leo + wide-leg leggings and vintage gold jewelry. get this, the jewelry pieces are all multigenerational family heirlooms cause i inherited SO MANY in the move + i want to make a habit of wearing jewelry more often. i feel a weird sense of satisfaction reclaiming these little pieces of history from people who, to put it simply, i most likely would not fuck with if they were alive today. especially considering i don't fuck with several folks who are alive + related to my husband as is. seeing these bits of my husband's family history discarded with such little care has been so odd. back to my outfit, the main star of the show. i put this dragonfly pin and a locket pin on my leggings to accentuate my hips ( 〃．．) and i'm honorin' my southern belle roots bc i'm wearing this pretty little cross ring, a pearl ring, and a bracelet that looks like a tiny gold belt with a buckle as the clasp. i look so good. the outfit is so cute. and oh my lord am i getting dance studio flashbacks. the drill team practices. the pom poms. the heat and the mosquitos on the football fields. bless my heart. i don't know how or why i ever did it. my arm feels itchy.

Anon looking for cast offs, I'd recommend avoiding Orchid seed and Insight. (or at least being cautious when looking them up). Both of these companies have some particularly nasty underage/l0li castoffs. also Insight is a shitty manufacturer in general iirc (they do PMMA figs like B'ful)

good call anon! i've seen some shit because i spend a lot of time on myfigurecollection looking at figs but i saw some new absolute monstrosities while deep diving the castoff tag for that ask. genuinely really do not recommend

This is such a perfect example of @ferrousferrule's point. Here we have someone who is missing the context of the original poll.

Without context, not only are they influenced to vote a certain way, but they are also influenced to judge everyone voting the other way. They are influenced to think that everyone voting for the other option must surely be weird and out of their mind ("why did your brain even go there?"). They find those people confusing.

It's such a common political tactic to manipulate your followers into thinking your opponents are crazy. And just like @ferrousferrule mentioned, this is fine for a dumb little poll because it's all in good fun. But this is just such a perfect example of how this would work for more important, real-world issues.

fuck it let's try this again

I think something ive been pushing off so much that i keep forgetting how big it is, is the fact that all (or all that ive talked to) of my coworkers/bosses are transphobic

Hey nerds,

Are you a fan of animation? Are you an artist that works in the animation industry (or at least wants to… one of these days)? Do you just enjoy silly cartoons? Or maybe you don’t care about cartoons, but you believe strongly in workers rights and fair wages!

Well the people who make your favorite cartoons, anime, and animated shows and movies are fighting for the future of this industry. We are facing a lot of challenges right now job creep, low wages, the ever looming threat of artists being replaced by AI to create worse animation for the sake of generating content to make lots of money for very rich people while real human artists live paycheck to paycheck and struggle to pay rent and feed their families…

But you can help! By signing this petition to show your support for animation workers in the US
