#LAST LINE IS A JOKE!

[strangegutz]

im sorry asks are losing you follows :( I like to see the people I follow having fun with their characters!!

i have accepted it, that’s the problem with doing vastly different things with my art! i’ll be alienating someone no matter what. here’s a venn diagram of my audience as i understand it:

unfortunately for most, fortunately for some, i love my ocs very much and will keep posting about them, I’m making a comic one day, i swear!

The Heartbreakers are the rent-lowering gunshots of the StrangeGutz neighborhood. maybe if enough people unfollow, i’ll lower the prices of my dolls, haha

i just think that Duke Thomas should like oink at Dick Grayson. I think that when Dick tries to come in Duke’s room and have like a weird sibling heart-to-heart, Duke’s like “u got a warrant, pig???” and Dicks like 👁️👄👁️. Duke passive-aggressively hands Dick a doughnut. And Dick doesn’t rrly get shit for being a cop/having been a cop bc most ppl assume he’s a stripper, so this is new to him.

Dead serious 3/4

Damian ran away from home after a bad fight with Bruce and accidentally entered a natural portal. Danny finds him and agrees to help him get home, and they fall in love along the way, with Ellie wingwomaning the whole time.

This is after that though, when Danny decides to join Damian in his dimension. Clockwork agrees, but he warns them that while it’s been almost a year for them, it’s been only a month back in Gotham, and their bodies will change to match that, with a few abnormalities for Danny. The journey may also cause Ellie to de age.

Now, the Batfam have been looking for Damian for a while, driving themselves crazy. They got confirmation that magic was involved, and are assuming it’s a kidnapping. So when a portal opens in their backyard, they are expecting a fight.

They aren’t expecting Damian to step out with another boy who had Black hair with a white streak like Jason, but bigger. He was cradling a baby who had the same dark hair.

“It’s weird seeing you look so young again.” The unknown boy says. Then, he sees them, and they all notice how one of his eyes is almost glowing green. “You ready to introduce me and the munchkin to your family? ‘Cause they are staring at us like they have seen a ghost.”

EBROwolf time for the spotlight and also by this time Barbie is out.

Instrumental for song 2 is finished, as are the lyrics (which will be below the cut)!

This introduces us to Martyn's character, as well as to the burdgeoning alliances currently forming (aside from Pearl and Scott, who will be focused on later; and from the Southlands, which have yet to form in the musical timeline).

(ft some anachromisms and contradictions to canon, since I know many of these alliances are formed later and don't interact with Martyn at this point, but I want to introduce them as soon as I can – there won't be time later)

Do note that the claps will be recorded in person, and that a sparser accompaniment generally means more vocal parts (which can't be heard here, since this is just the instrumental track).

(still may be changed on the recording day – lines I'm not sure about will have an asterisk – but currently:)

[music starts]

Martyn (spoken): Four lives? You know what, I’ll take it!

MARTYN Right, here we go again — new world, another start. New chance to see who’ll reach the end, and who will fall apart Well, won’t be me – this time I’ll be the very last to fall No care for cost, I’ll lie, double cross to take it all*

Walls, corners, edges, I’ve been this way before. You’ll be cornered in the corners, and on edge in many more; And walls you’ll build and walls you’ll raise(/raze) and walls will fall in war, Kinship destroyed, so keep it a void you’re fighting for.

So corner to corner, I’ll keep wandering on, Border to border, through woods, through caves, through spawn, Sure, laugh with some, don’t keep it glum, so long as lines are drawn Forego the rest, and don’t invest, just keep on wandering (WATCHER CHORUS: wandering, wandering) on.

[short instrumental]

LIZZIE Welcome, oh welcome to my tree fort, yet unnamed

MARTYN Be careful with that name you pick — don’t want it to get flamed!

LIZZIE (spoken: …Ah) They won’t demean* A fellow green... ...Your lives?

MARTYN That’s mine to know Is that a tower over there? See you, I’ve got to go!

[short instrumental]

TEAM BEST BEST will be the best, and we’ll show em what we got With our matching shields, and our towering snow fort

MARTYN Hold on a sec, where’s your respect?

BDUBS/SKIZZ Respect?

MARTYN Yeah, that’s my bit! Same shields? Snow? A world ago? With Ren and- fine, have it

SCAR/BEST/LIZZIE/MARTYN No matter if you're in your sixes or twos/Let's find some ore to- I'll sell you an offer you/-mine cannot refuse/It'll be the fairy fort!

Crystals for fleeing,/I'm fine just to chat Crystals for flame,/Not falling for that! Survival's the

ALL Name of the game!

SCAR/BEST/LIZZIE/MARTYN Corner to corner, I'll just keep on wandering, wandering on/Yes, join the fairy fort, I'd love to have you here!/BEST will be the best, with our diamonds and our gold*

We can build a secret passageway so we'll always be near!/Put us to the test, and you'll see that we won't fold/A crystal or spell, oh, Joel, you'd help me sell?/Through woods, through caves-

-But still for my sake I probably should find a team: it would do me some-/We'll aid each other when we need, together we will succeed, oh-/Put us to the test and you'll see that we'll do-/Goody!* Magical Mountain we'll be!

ALL (including Cleo, BigB and Joel, who are now onstage with their respective alliances) Good – It's this I've understood!*

UPPER WATCHERS/LOWER WATCHERS Oh, wander, wander on/Wonder, wonder On/When they'll all start to turn tails

Wonder, wonder/Wander, wander When trust will yield to betrayals/On

WATCHERS/MARTYN Till the rest are gone.../Right, here I go again – I'll fight with my axe drawn* Oh, wander, little pawn/But, unlike then... I'll lead, not play a pawn

[instrumental; END]

(note: for the chorus where everyone's overlapping, I haven't heard it with words yet (since I can only sing one part at once) – I will pan it, but if some parts get too crowded/chaotic, I may remove one or two parts. On a stage, everyone would be singing in different groups in different areas, in different ranges, so it would be clearer – but that's not something available to ,e)

(end of post, just overlapping lyrics in black, to help with potential eyestrain:

SCAR/BEST/LIZZIE/MARTYN No matter if you're in your sixes or twos/Let's find some ore to- I'll sell you an offer you/-mine cannot refuse/It'll be the fairy fort!

This is a rather high-risk romance we've embarked upon, isn't it? Brings new meaning to the term 'strange bedfellows'.

i think it is actually insane that it is considered a “controversial take” to like buck and tommy together.

like … he is canonically seeing him.. wanting to date him… is happy with him.. likes learning more about him..

and honestly? the same thing for any of his past relationships.

like ok you do not need to have liked any of his past girlfriends, hell you dont even have to like tommy! but you also do NOT need to bash / make fun of people who have / do??

buck dated these people for a reason. he liked them! he had chemistry with them! they had cute moments!

you should not feel ashamed or scared to admit that if it’s what you think. and you shouldn’t bash someone for not having the same opinions as you!

and just because you like bucktommy does not mean you are “giving up on buddie” … sick of people saying that actually lmfao LIKE HOWW DOES THAT CORRELATE??

personally, i just want to see buck happy and currently tommy is the one who has been making that happen. if you seriously cannot handle someone shipping them, i highly recommend growing up and getting over it lol

anyway

eddie and his love interests on the other hand……

tearstone island is an ISLAND. THAT IS NEAR RIVAIN. and we don't even get to see the lords of fortune do anything. bioware i am in your fucking walls

[torchickentacos]

i will always shout praises of bi4bi but given recent discourse I feel the need to say that I love bi4het too! I just love bisexuality in general in its many forms, and anyone who only likes it when it's 'queer enough' for them is biphobic. Bisexuals should be able to bring their LaMe CiShEt BoYfRiEnD to pride without being made to feel like spectators and outsiders to their own event.

[“…San Lang, don’t move. The voice out there sounds a lot like the state preceptor’s. Let’s not allow ourselves to be discovered…”

Hua Cheng bowed his head slightly and hugged Xie Lian’s waist.

“All right… You don’t move either,” he whispered in his ear.

Rocks and earth crushed at them from all around, forcing them to press tightly against one another, their faces nuzzling and their ears warming at the contact. While it was hardly the right time, a thought nonetheless flashed through Xie Lian’s mind: It doesn’t feel so bad to share a grave.]

Listened back on some voice acting i recorded for fun a while ago and realized how funny it is that i made at least made a vague attempt to do a character voice for Gloria compared to me reading the biologist's lines in what is very obviously my regular not-at-all-what-the-biologist-would-sound-like talking voice

I might've been reading Bucktommy flying lesson date fics...

99% of the time you start your flight training in a small, light aircraft with a simple design and little to no automation, so that students can get a hold of the basics of flying before moving onto bigger, more powerful airframes. It's also more affordable to rent.

So whenever I imagine Tommy giving Buck flying lessons, I picture them trying to squeeze into a teeny tiny R22:

It's a tight fit even for regular sized people, let alone our 2 human tanks. Imagine them squished between each other's shoulder and the door, while Buck is trying to hold onto the cyclic as still as possible at an awkward angle, but the chopper is still writing cursives in the sky. I just find the mental picture of it very funny.

It's a joke, for legal reasons. There are more spacious and newer models of helicopter you can start your training in. Actually I think the combined mass of these 2 alone probably already exceed the maximum weight limit of the R22. We also have Evan "lawsuit millionaire" Buckley and Tommy "knows a guy" Kinard here, so affordability is probably not the biggest concern either.
