Jinx x GN!Thief!Reader

getting chased by your victims—the people you stole from—you stumble into one of the most iconic figure in Zaun. wait, what the fuck—is that Jinx??

→ one shot, first meeting, violence, flirtatious MC 😭

🔵 ; act 3 js stabbed me btw

"Holy shit!! Move away! Move away, move away!!"

Before Jinx can even blink, she's slammed to the ground with tangling limbs. A choked groan escapes her lips as she quickly looks up to see you. Intense blue eyes deliriously captures all of your attention.

You stare back at her, eyes widening.

"...You're gorgeous," you blurt.

Her eyes narrow in a split second. Without warning, you swiftly rise to your feet and start running away. A few more thumping sounds follow, but Jinx is too fixated to watch your retreating figure.

"And I'm sooorrrrryyyyyyyy—!!" you yell, your voice growing fainter and fainter.

Jinx stands up.

A clicking sound stops her from moving. Something is pressed against her back.

"You an apprentice?" a gruff voice asks. The object—she guesses it's a gun—digs further into her top.

She sighs.

Turns around so fast they couldn't even react.

Her hand is raised. Fingers readily posed for a trigger.

...

Wait.

Where in the absolute fuck is her gun?

She drops her empty hand and taps on her pockets, feeling within. Empty. Empty. Empty.

Oh, shit. You didn't apologize for falling onto her.

The three massive men exchange confused looks. One shrugs and nudges the other. About to do a move, a long groan suddenly rings out.

Jinx pulls under her eyes in frustration. "God. You people are amateurs!"

She's already out of there. Her feet are running through the ground. Light, swift, and desperate. Inhumanly fast. The polluted breeze hits her face. How the hell did you do that? Right under her fucking nose.

Granted, she can always make another handgun and earn more money—but you had the blue crystals.

It's not like she'll have a hard time finding you, anyway.

You left trails of your muddy steps.

"There she is!"

A sharp exhale.

In one lucky move, Jinx manages to knock out all of the offenders. They all come crashing down on top of each other. Thank God for that loose pole.

There. She got rid of the nuisances. Turning, she prepares her heel—

"Woah."

You whistle loudly. Jinx snaps her head toward your direction. Just sitting above the rooftop apartments. "Gotta say, you're amazin', lady."

With a tilt of her head, she stares immensely at the weapon in your grasp. You handle it poorly by holding the tip with two fingers. Almost like it's worthless junk.

" ... That's mine," says Jinx.

"Yours?" you imitate her action, cocking your head to the side. Your lips pull a teasing smile. "Lowkey sounds hot. Can I be yours, too?"

She studies your face for a moment before a smirk of her own shows up. "Sure can. But my attractiveness kills people. Just gimme back my stuff, will ya?"

You laugh, humming, taking your sweet time to study her weapons. The blue glow in particular has your half-hearted attention. "Y'know, I've never seen anythin' like this before."

"Hah," Jinx crosses her arms, her grin widening. "Course ya didn't. I made it. Consider it an honor you even got to touch it, let alone look at it."

You pause at her words. Then take another look at the gun.

"You made this?" you say incredulously, an eyebrow arching. "Huh. That sounds a lot like somethin' Jinx would do."

Slight movement next to you. You turn, freezing at the sight of the bluenette sitting beside you.

She takes the chance to casually take the gun from your hand. There's an unimpressed look on her face.

"Guess what?"

You stare back, chuckling sheepishly. How is it that you've worked for Silco himself a few times, but have never met Jinx before?

" ... At least I'll die at the hands of a beautiful woman."

Jinx slaps your head. You let out a small cry, rubbing the sore spot. "I know who you are, moron. Silco's looking for you."

"Oh," you mutter, digging into your bag. "I should, uh, probably give your wallet back too."

🩵

I WANTED THIS TO BE MORE... hang on-- also my bad if reader sounds like a creep i swear that isnt my intention 😭 lemme know tho

"I won't complain if you explode me here rn,, heh..."

"dude shut the fuck up i said im sparing you"

DEMO (62K) SOUNDTRACK PINTEREST Prologue Release Date: 15th Dec 2024

All the leaves are brown, and the sky is grey.

18+ This interactive story includes graphic violence, sexual content, alcohol and drug use, profanity and more.

Disclaimer Gender and race-locked IF due to discussions of gender and racial politics throughout.

Take centre stage as a former-rockstar turned actress navigating your new career and the chilling grip of fan-obsession. Your once-famous band may be nothing short of a ghost of the past to you, but the rest of the world cannot seem to let go. The split in 1968 was scandalous, abrupt and mysterious. And although you’ve thrown yourself into acting and secured your first major role with a big time Hollywood director, whispers of blame have been on your tail ever since.

While most of Hollywood sees these rumours for what they are--empty gossip--a darker current takes precedence and poses a much more sinister threat to your life and the lives of those around you.

✼ Shape and mould into your truest ‘70s self. Perhaps you’re a mod-girl or a hippie? ✼ Interact with '60s and '70s icons on the Sunset Strip. ✼ Help uncover the identity of the 'Ampersand Killer' terrorising the West Coast. ✼ Decide which career path is more fitting for you. Are you made to live on the silver screen or stadium stages? ✼ Maintain and better your physical health and self-defence skills. ✼ Pick from a selection of love interests (including two gender-choice options). ✼ Includes an array of potential flings. ✼ A catalogue of original songs for fictional musicians.

Vincent "Vince" Buscemi, the ex-bandmate ⇢ You were part of one of the most renowned bands of the '60s together. Vince is a jaded soul, harbouring deep-seated reservations about many people--most notably the band's keyboardist--but he has always had a soft spot for you. Despite his guarded demeanour, he exudes effortless charm and impeccable manners, a testament to his healthy upbringing. Though widely celebrated as a pop-culture heartthrob, Vince defies superficial stereotypes. His truest passion lies in music, and it's clear that nothing in the world brings him greater joy.

Penn Hausler, the filmmaker ⇢ Though still considered an up-and-coming filmmaker, Penn has already made a name for himself as a creative force in the industry, thanks to his latest hit starring Faye Dunaway. He radiates charisma, with a shining personality and a sharp sense of humour. He's unmistakably a nerd--passionately devoted to his craft. He's also prone to being a bit of a square, often finding himself tangled in bouts of nervous awkwardness. Despite this, his unwavering commitment to his vision sets him apart, and he's not afraid to take bold creative risks. Case in point: he has cast you as a supporting actress in his next film.

Kai/Kaya Anahareo (m/f), the folksinger ⇢ Although they haven't yet broken into the mainstream, K is a highly skilled musician deeply respected by their peers. Their artistry intertwines seamlessly with their role as a political activist, with much of their protest powerfully conveyed through their music. K is the embodiment of levelheadedness, exuding an aura of calm and balance that draws people to them. Their presence is steady and reassuring, much like the songs they sing--thoughtful, impactful and unwavering.

Dorinda Fisher, the journalist ⇢ Dorinda is a sharp, driven and fiercely dedicated journalist. Relentless in her pursuit of a story or a hard-to-find answer, she doesn't back down easily. Hailing from a small town, she's well-read and possesses a no-nonsense approach to life. You first crossed paths through your bandmate, whom she dated earlier in your career. During the US leg of your tour, she joined the band on the road while freelancing, documenting the whirlwind of your band's journey during a fair few defining months in your rise to fame.

Please note: You will have the option to decide whether the two of you had a romantic connection in the past while you were on the road. If you choose not to follow through with this backstory, you can still romance her as a new connection.

Phillip/Phyllis Wright (m/f), the movie star ⇢ P is a Hollywood icon, a name already as timeless and celebrated as the likes of both Hepburns, Cary Grant and Sidney Poitier. An Academy Award-winning actor, they embody the pinnacle of cinematic stardom, capturing Penn's admiration and dream of collaboration. Known for their charm, striking good looks and effortless sophistication, P commands every room they enter.

Lesley Nielsen, the detective ⇢ Detective Inspector Nielsen is a man married to his work. His guarded and disciplined demeanour can often make him seem laborious, but beneath the tough exterior lies a dry wit and the ability to crack a well-timed joke. A strikingly handsome gentleman, he's adept with a handgun and keeps one at his side at all times. A seasoned veteran of the force, Nielsen only crosses paths with you once he's assigned as the lead detective on the high-profile Ampersand Killer case. Whether you share much in common is up in the air, but one thing is certain: your mutual determination to bring a cold-blooded murderer to justice.

[gilbertscurls]

The living room was transformed into a makeshift photo studio, complete with a red-and-green backdrop strung with fairy lights and a basket overflowing with absurd holiday props. Chris stood in the middle of the chaos, already wearing an oversized Santa hat that drooped over one eye and holding a pair of reindeer antlers in his hand.

“Alright,�� he said, grinning at you, “ready to be immortalized in the greatest holiday photos ever taken?”

You raised an eyebrow, gesturing to the pile of props. “You sure this isn’t going to be the most embarrassing photoshoot ever taken?”

“Embarrassing? These are gonna be iconic,” he replied, tossing you a matching Santa hat. “Now, come on. We need to start strong.”

You couldn’t help but laugh as Chris rummaged through the props, emerging with a pair of oversized sunglasses shaped like Christmas trees and a giant candy cane. He handed you the candy cane and pulled on the sunglasses himself, striking a pose so ridiculous you almost doubled over.

“Alright, first shot,” he said, pulling out a remote for the camera set up on a tripod. “Big smiles. Think Holiday Vogue.”

“Holiday Vogue?” you repeated, biting back a grin.

“Trust me,” he said, already clicking the remote.

The first few pictures were relatively tame—classic smiles and goofy props—but it didn’t take long for Chris to up the ante. He pulled out a pair of fake elf ears, insisting you wear them while he tied a string of tinsel around his shoulders like a cape.

“Now we’re getting somewhere,” he said, wrapping an arm around your shoulders and grinning at the camera.

It only got sillier from there. You tried to balance a tiny Santa figurine on Chris’ head while he attempted to hold a straight face, and he retaliated by sticking a foam Rudolph nose on you when you weren’t looking. At one point, he grabbed a garland of lights, wrapping it around both of you until you looked like a couple of Christmas trees.

“You’re terrible at this,” you said, laughing as he tried (and failed) to secure the garland without tangling it.

“No,” he corrected, grinning, “I’m a creative genius.”

The photos grew increasingly absurd, with Chris doing everything from pretending to ride a giant inflatable penguin to dramatically holding up a fake gift box like it was the answer to life’s mysteries. Every time you thought the shenanigans were over, he’d grab another prop and drag you back in, his laughter infectious.

When the camera’s memory card finally filled up, you both collapsed onto the couch, still tangled in tinsel and Santa hats askew.

“Okay,” you said between breaths, “that might actually be the most fun I’ve had all season.”

“Told you,” Chris said, smirking as he leaned back. “And just wait. These photos are gonna be legendary.”

“You mean blackmail material?”

“Tomato, tomahto,” he replied with a wink.

Later, as you scrolled through the photos together, you couldn’t stop laughing at the sheer ridiculousness of it all. Chris paused on a shot where you were both mid-laugh, surrounded by props and utterly unbothered by how silly you looked.

“That one’s my favorite,” he said, his voice softer now.

You glanced at him, surprised. “Why?”

He shrugged, his usual teasing grin giving way to something more genuine. “Because it’s us. Having fun, being ourselves. That’s what Christmas is about, right?”

You smiled, nudging him with your shoulder. “Yeah. I think you’re right.”

And as the two of you sat there, laughing over the chaos you’d created, you realized this holiday photoshoot wasn’t just about silly props or matching hats—it was about making memories you’d cherish for years to come.

Spirit World #3: this is a fascinating reinterpretation of Cass’ death.

Now, I can tell that the team for Spirit World have read Batgirl 2000, and read it closely. But even as they’ve recanonised Cass’s deaths, what they’ve put in the issue is not actually how Cass died.

First of all, while Shiva has killed and resurrected Cass, this was in Batgirl #25, when Shiva stopped Cass’ heart with the Leopard Blow punch to the heart. In the scene they’re replicating above, Cass’ second death, Shiva did not kill Cass. Mad Dog did, in Batgirl #72 when he stabbed her in the heart with a knife. It was a blade, not a bullet.

Here’s the closest anyone gets to shooting Cass during the fight scenes around this death.You’ll note Shiva’s already taking Cass to the Pit, and the knife is still in place.

Shiva wouldn’t bother trying to shoot Cass. Not only does she prefer to kill via sparring, but she knows Cass can dodge bullets. While she does shoot at Cass after the Pit, it’s with a tangle gun to trap Cass while she recovers from a very temporary bout of pit madness. Which resolves in a couple of panels.

I’ll also note here that in the process of simplification, they’ve put Shiva into the outfit that she wears in Batgirl #73 for the whole spread. This isn’t what she wore to Cass’ death. This is what Shiva wore when she died. (I think it’s interesting they picked this outfit, as it’s not only the more iconic one, but in a situation where we are discussing the Spirit World, the fact they remember this by what both Cass and Shiva wore at the moments of their OWN deaths is interesting)

The other thing about the introduction of a gun to the mythology of Cass’ death is that it ties her more tightly to another classic Bat death scene: Thomas and Martha Wayne. The gun, and Martha’s pearls lying in spilled blood. This is really interesting, as guns are actually pretty rare in the various family death scenes.

Now why would they choose to do this? Well, Cass already has her mother’s pearls.

She took them in Batgirl #8 after the first fight she won against Shiva.

So giving Shiva and Cass’ relationship the gun to go with the pearls? It’s striking to me.

Lastly:

Here’s Cass thinking about her family in Batgirl #70.

Here’s Cass thinking about her family in Spirit World #3.

Look at the echoed positions for Bruce and Babs. Look at the changes.

I know the reasoning for why the blocking is the way it is here, but I do quietly wish for this one moment they’d put Steph in her original Spoiler costume. Because her pose (hood back, cape flare, even the stance somewhat) is pretty clearly supposed to echo the most iconic Steph and Cass panel of all time from Batgirl #72:

I know why they didn’t. But it would’ve been satisfying.

Dr. Pulse Returns

(Shared character ownership with @airophyr)

Had this one laying around for a little while, but I felt like it was in lower quality than my latest traditional drawing.

Then I remembered anything Dr. Pulse-related is always of the utmost quality and shouldn't be hidden from the public!

It was meant to be the final pose of the iconic Crash Bandicoot dance, but now I interpret this as her chasing her own tail, which is just as in-character if not more.

+ Bonus Tangle WIP

[chillfaerie]

Tangled fandom, I need help!

I'm working on a Varian drawing but I'm stumped on the pose. I thought I would reference something from the series, so if you have any suggestions for iconic, full-body poses of Varian from the show, please send them! If I end up using your idea, I'll credit you for the help :D

1: Song to the Stranger in Strange Lands

You quickly realise from Robert A. Heinlein’s novel Stranger in a Strange Land (1961) what all the controversy was about. The topics in its pages skip casually from free love, polyamory, water sharing rituals, telepathy, OBEs,  cannibalism, the intertwining of corrupt politics and religions and journalism and the messiah complex. That’s quite a lot to pack into one story. The extended version published in 1991 contained the extra 60,000 words that the publishers had thought too controversial to publish back in 1961. 

While not a main character there is an astrologer called Becky Vesant who gives advice to the leader of the one world government that has taken over the world. Major Douglas relies on this resident astrologer Becky Vesant, for predictions on how to proceed in life. This is uncanny as, written in 1961,  it foresees the role that  Joan Quigley played as secret astrologer to the Reagans during their time in the 1980s at the Whitehouse. 

Quigley influenced world events that heralded the Perestroika period. It was Nancy who had Ronald’s ear and persuaded him to follow astrological advice, even warning him about the day of the attempted assassination. Vesant does the same for Major Douglas and his wife Alice, only 20 years in advance of it happening. In a similar scenario Becky Vesant’s astro-analysis is vital to Alice Douglas who then advises her husband Major Douglas what should be done about the man from Mars so Jubal Harshaw can intercede in his favour.  Astrology has its uses even for top policy makers and Heinlein suggests a future where use of astrology is normalised and no longer needs to be hidden. 

The novel is a rich stew of visionary ideas mostly ahead of their time and it propelled Robert Heinlein to the list of top writers of the 20th century. Its original title was ‘The Heretic’ and the words ‘Stranger in a Strange Land’ is a quote from the King James Bible, from Exodus 22.2. But ironically, in spite of its iconoclasm, it has achieved iconic popular status. It was given the Hugo award, and even was associated with the liberation movements of the 1960s and even became tangled up in the cult of Charles Manson and his followers who borrowed its ideas of living in communes and sharing lovers.

Putting aside the debate about whether Heinlein is still fashionable or not, there is still something important to learn from Heinlein’s book and that is to pose the question: where do the ideas on Earth originate? Who among us feels just like the man from Mars, like strangers here on Earth who see things differently from other humans? Do we really belong here or do we sometimes feel we are from somewhere else? Or to ask if we have been given a special mission to fulfil and if that should be our sole task? And to ask if it is true that,while we are in this world, we are not of it -as the famous Sufi mystical doctrine goes- then who are we really?

What occurs on Earth can appear insane, absurd, twisted, profane, evil, massively infested by parasitic energies, and what we witness during one lifetime is shocking travesty of the true potential of what it means to be an evolved ‘human’. You could be forgiven for thinking that Earth is the battleground for wars on the physical, emotional and metaphysical levels.

And who feels most alienated among social groups who might feel this existential anxiety about others? Chiron in Aquarius, especially if that is in the 7th house. Heinlein's Chiron was in Aquarius which is how he can teach us about what happens to individuals in groups, as they either feel rejected as aliens or they descend into an orgy of groupthink. Someone has to be the sin eater and soak up all the ugly projections. People with this placement are the introverts and loners, people who don't 'fit in'. They have a troubled sense of belonging.  Chiron has been in and out of Aquarius at various times, but retrogrades a lot, so double check where your Chiron placement is here. Chiron is in Aries at the moment chipping away at the existential angst people feel. Heinlein points to ideologies that sincerely intend to be for the good of all but that develop into dystopias- another quirky quality of Aquarius. is the imposition of their ideas on the rest of the world- always for the greater good.

While Stranger in a Strange Land may not be the greatest of literary achievements, it is regarded as one of the best Science Fiction novels ever written and the best Heinlein ever wrote. That all makes for a racy novel full of questions about why society on Earth is the way it is. It is written in satirical vein, so it is quite comical in parts, almost picaresque. It is about a man Valentine Michael Smith, born in Mars, who is a hybrid half human. He has special powers of telepathy, going out of body, able to teleport thigs, people, clothes, and have deep emotional understanding. He lands on Earth and has to learn its history and psychology all from scratch so his viewpoint is innocent and objective- at least at first.

But he learns quickly and becomes the messiah of his own religion of free love. He is compared to a Prometheus stealer of fire- so that’s a stand- in for Uranus and the genius that bestows. They way he looks at the humans he meets is without judgement like a tabula rasa- until he ‘groks’ them and begins to understand. This word ‘grok’ originated in  Heinlein’s book yet has multiple and profound meanings: to get, to dig, to asborb, to drink, to know fully, to understand, to consume, to eat, to identify with and so on. 

The novel reveals such a lot about our time in the 21st century and the issue of how religions create the chains on the human mind and where they are mingled with politics and sex i.e. where political movements act like substitutes for religion and where sex is repressed and/or sublimated unconsciously. This is especially true for people who are lost and vacuous, without any inner spiritual compass, or who have strayed away from the religious tradition they were born into. State policies and laws take on the guise of evangelical and theological dictats to be blindly obeyed, and the appeal to what is the ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ way to think is put down to which knee-jerk emotions are triggered and not to any facts or to any enlightened reasoning process.  In another lesser known novel ‘Orphans in the Sky (1964) there is a massive spaceship and all  humans aboard truly believe that it is the living extent of the entire universe as they have never actually been to the edges of the ship.

MAG 83 - hair dying session

Georgie's smelling there is more to this compulsive statement recording behavior. And is actually questioning where these statements come from and why it's super weird that Jon doesn't know

JON "I mean, I’m not, I’m not on drugs or anything." [GEORGIE LAUGHS DISBELIEVINGLY] "What? … I could be on drugs!" - Sure xD Iconic moment! Also… if Jon is addicted to statements… doesn't this mean he actually is on drugs? xDDD

So after the two wrap-up/follow-up episodes to the S2 finale we're jumping right in to introduce this season's big bag. "So when I came in one day to find that the ringmistress mannequin had been replaced, I knew instantly. It was wearing the same clothes, certainly, and was posed the same way, but I could see the difference." - Is it Nikola who's now posing for the department store?

"The raincoat mannequin had, it seemed, been… disassembled, then rebuilt into a tangled bunch of limbs and joints. The torso was upside down and the two arms jutted out from the front and back of the pelvis, bending up to hold the mannequin’s head aloft." - Who else is thinking of Silent Hill here?

"Its steps were jerky and stiff, arms snapping out and back as it moved towards me step by step." - Interesting. Something like this in visual media would always get me. Here my imagination fails me for once. I don't know, I feel like uncanny profits highly from visuals.

"have located a few stories about the death of Lana Billings, found… strangled and partially skinned in the storage of Fanton’s department store" - So is this where Nikola got some of their parts from?

"I cannot help but notice, parked just at the edge, is an off-white delivery van." - Oh wow, I totally forgot about Breekon & Hope being in this episode! So they picked up Nikola. Or maybe even delivered her in the first place?

"Hiding won’t bring any answers, and it won’t stop whatever’s going on." - I love TMA's canon reason to carry on despite the characters knowing that their lives are on the line. There is just no escape… (well, that they know of at this point)

I've seen a bunch of meta talking about his statement reading and speculating whether it's addiction to something he doesn't need or actual sustenance like food. An interesting question to be sure
