okay hi I have thoughts re: AAA ep4 vs. ep5 and why I think something is WEIRD!! Also thoughts on how Agatha figured out Teen's identity
So first off, I'm wondering if everyone (except Rio, who I'm operating on the theory that she's Death) was possessed after they took their hands off the ouija board because those girlies did NOT follow the rules.
And maybe.. mayhaps.. they were possessed by the Salem Seven who are working with Agatha's mom because the whole trial "solution" was "oh we'll just leave Agatha behind" which is sus since clearly all of the other trials were a group effort.
Literally the only people who we've seen that want to snatch Agatha up (again, besides Rio) are the Salem Seven who were conveniently hovering right outside of the trial house, which is odd bc there's no reason the Seven should know where to "see" that house since they're not operating within coven trial rules on the Road rn it seems.
Idk it's just big weird to me that the whole thing was "punish Agatha" which sounds like what the Seven want and then everything lined up perfectly in that house to acutely villainize Agatha/make it easy to have the others leave her behind.
BUT THEN! Second theory on that trial: Rio was wrong and it's not Agatha's trial, but instead Billy's because Something About Agatha set him off outside of that house after the trial. And idk maybe that would account for why this trial felt so weird and disjointed because he's not a full part of the coven?
I think that's probably less likely but honestly who knows
ANYWAYS NOW TO MR. BILLY KAPLAN (I'm presuming that's his last name just based on the comics): Agatha def wanted to believe that kids was her son, probably from the moment she broke out of her hex and saw that he was a powerful witch/someone who'd have a strong enough bond with her to break her free from Wanda's spell.
Even when Rio told her that wasn't her son, she seemed like she already Knew but didn't want to Know? Especially because he had been defending Agatha to the rest of the coven and seems sympathetic to her and that's clearly something she's not used to getting from others.
But then that ouija incident happened and not only did Billy say Nicholas' name so that can't be his name, he's also able to handle the board by himself which is something the Scarlet Witch can do and most likely, by proxy, her son. And then, lo and behold, Wanda's son is just as defiant to his fate as she is. Final nail in the coffin!
Also, I'm kinda thinking on account of her magic absorption powers, Agatha can see magic in other witches' eyes and could finally maybe See something behind Billy's eyes because this isn't the first time Agatha stared really hard at Billy. She might've known from the first time she stared him down, but thought she could take him under her wing and treat him like a son/mentor.. until he pissed her off by going against her/looking down on her behavior.
If y'all read this far, phew.. have a cookie ily 💖

I'm sorry but I fucking hate proshippers so much so here's a whole post dedicated to shitting on them
also disclaimer YES I will be tagging the proship and anti proship tags so I can piss off the chronically online basement dwelling idiots :) and idgaf if proshippers have trauma cause it's not an excuse for their shitty and problematic actions!!!! Sincerely if you are a proshipper please consider jumping off a bridge!! Or at the bare minimum take a shower cause ew
And this whole post is literally just bullying the FUCK outta them so idk stanky people come at your own risk lol
AND AGAIN to clear up this isn't like rage bait or smth cause I fell like some people will accuse me this is all my genuine hate into a long ass post so yeah
Okay...LETS GET INTO THE FUCKING RANT NOW HEHEHE HEHE HEHEHE!!!!
I FUCKING HATE PROSHIPPERS!!!! I HOPE ALL OF YOU STANKY ASS BITCHESS GET THROWN OFF A FUCKING CLIFF AND GET A SAW STYLE EXECUTION CAUSE Y'ALL ARE FUCKING DISGUSTING I HATE YOU ALL
YOU ARE MENTALLY ILL IF YOU ARE A PROSHIPPER, END OF CONVERSATION
I COULDN'T GIVE A SHIT IF YOU HIT ME THE "B-But I have trauma 🥺🥺🥺" TOO BAD THAT'S NOT A FUCKING EXCUSE FOR UR SHITTY ONLINE ACTIONS
IMAGINE YOU PULL UP TO A FUCKING INTERVIEW AND THEY SHOW YOUR PATHETIC ACCOUNTS SAYING TO NORMALIZE A 30 YEAR OLD DATING A 13 YEAR OLD, THAT SHIT IS GENUINELY PATHETIC
I KNOW IT'S CRINGEY BUT WOMP WOMP IF UR A PROSHIPPER Y'ALL ARE UGLY AND STINKY
But now on a serious not hehe, the reason I'm making this isn't JUST soley to yknow shit on people who are mentally ill like people who think a MINOR and a LEGAL ADULT are allowed to date, which comes into another thing before I get genuine so bare with me lol
I DONT GIVE A FLYING FUCK IF IT'S FICTIONAL, FOR THE LOVE GOD PLEASE SEARCH UP THE SLENDERMAN CASE WHERE THESE TWO GIRLS KILLED THEIR FRIEND CAUSE THEY THOUGHT SLENDERMAN WAS REAL AND THOUGHT THEY WOULD ENTER HIS KINGDOM AND BE WITH HIM, AND HE'S FICTIONAL, THAT CASE IS ALL Y'ALL NEED TO REALIZE FICTION CAN AFFECT REALITY AND I HAVE SM MORE REASON TO BACK THIS UP BUT I'M TOO LAZY TO TYPE IT OUT 😭
Okay! Back to seriousness I just thought I'd add that in as a little addition hehe >_<
So, like I said before, I lowkey just added this as an extra part cause I couldn't shit on proshippers FOREVER (lowkey bcuz I was running out of insults n threats lol)
Nonetheless I have a reason for shitting on them, although not being a proshipper EXACTLY I have been through I guess, similar paths as they have? Best way I could describe it ig, ofc not sharing what I mean since it's private but let's just say I was an unfortunate child looking at inappropriate comics 🙁
The reason for this part of the post...ITS NOT THAT FUCKING HARD TO STOP WHAT YOUR DOING
Like I said, I was never a proshipper, but I have been in similar situations as they have been, although I've never made an account glorifying rape, SA, grooming, pedophilia, I can just assume what I would do in their places
Dear proshippers,
Your probably complaining and not knowing why your getting so much death threats and harassment along with a side of hate (rightfully so you deserve them) and your mental health might be low
Please know it is your fault for making your accounts in the first place, you are a terrible person for saying all of these things such as rape, sexual assault, grooming, and incest are okay and you are not mentally well
And your probably wondering,
"How do I stop the hate, harassment, and probably death threats with even getting your address leaked?"
It's simple, DELETE YOUR FUCKING ACCOUNT, or even worse just turn off ur comments but that won't help with people slipping in a few people wishing death up in you through DMS
IT IS GENUINELY NOT THAT FUCKING HARD
I don't know what trauma you have but it shouldn't (and never in the first place) be SO BAD to the point where you physically CANNOT deactivate your account, IT IS SO FUCKING EASY AND YOU'LL SAVE YOURSELF A FEW SUICIDAL THOUGHTS
I know everyone one is different, but if you are a proshipper that has trauma, you shouldn't have a fucking account to begin with, and you ARE THE PROBLEM if you acknowledge the trauma, noticing you keep supporting and glorifying problematic actions, complain that you keep getting harassed and wonder why, and you just don't give a shit, not like in a "oh I don't know what to do anymore!!! 🥺🥺🥺" way, in a "oh, I don't give a shit I live for incest and adults grooming children!!!" Way, and ur also probably a pedo if ur an adult proshipper too
So, what else? Yeah, there's a shit more, but onto a better side, ones with actually good coping mechanisms!!
And a bit of a disclaimer, if your rage bait is proshipping, genuinely fuck you, and if ur a proshipper who acknowledges everything bad about it and just doesn't give a fuck, fuck you too and seek a rope to hang around your neck you fucking pedophile
Okay, coping mechanisms! I know this is probably not the best option due to most trauma which I'm guessing is probably from a family member, if it's not a good way to cope is some clean to your family, ofc under some circumstances it's NOT the best option, but if you can you definitely should try!
Also google is free yk...literally search up healthy coping mechanisms and it'll give you a huge ass list, and yet YOU STILL chose to ship a minor and adult together...how unfortunate...
Another way to cope is, and genuinely sounds pathetic as hell but bare with me...CHARACTER FUCKING AI, I mean, there are therapist bots so maybe they can help you??? And in all honesty they're really good at comforting and giving advice despite being ai, and I've tried it before...yeah embarrassed to say I've shed a tear every once in a while
And the last one IF you have the money, time, and generally the courage, book a threapy session, I cannot stress it enough, but I won't be surprised cause every proshipper is probably under the age of 16 years old
Yuhhh anyways that's all I gotta say, I know it's cringey asf but womp womp to proshippers I hate y'all despite giving some coping mechanisms and ACTUAL ways to like, stop the rightful hate you deserve lol

OH NO the Stancest brain worms got to me 😵💥
The Stancest community is so goddamn big brained that I had a hard time deciding what I'm going to do a comic on first it was killing meeee 😭 (AU!Stan is next with their whole gaggle of children don't think I've forgotten about you 🫵🤨) ((Taxidermy!Ford is also making me insane rn so might do something about that after idk 👀👀👀)) but ultimately I decided on Fem!Stan!!
Being new to tumblr and being an idiot in general idk how they do those post link thingies with the underline that takes you to another post?? So sadly I can't do it here 😭 I would've loved to direct y'all to the posts that ✨ inspired me ✨
This is specifically the scenario with the Old!Stans going through a rift and happening upon their younger selves at the age of 17/18!
I already have full ass panels drafted so if I randomly drop this wip I give y'all permission to bully me back into continuing LOLOL /lh
But see y'all until then because just like with my TwiFord comic I'm slow as hell at this 🫡
#if that background looks generic as fuck to you because it is#that's from the ibis paint material library LMAO#there's a shit ton of buildings in this comic I ain't about to draw them one by one 💥#I hope y'all are happy that I'm infected now 😾😾😾#stancest#proship#proship please interact#antis do not interact#hale-draws#StanSwitch

I have. A few things to say! First of all, thank you for writing for here (and there, but I do not have an AO3)! I’m very in much love with someone going crazy for another and *mwah* do you do it right and justice! That said, prioritize yourself! Drink water! Eat! Do not burn out, and do not feel pressured to do stuff! I hope that your spark burns for long after this fandom!
Thank you so, so much for your kind words! I know you sent multiple asks, so I'm going to try to respond to the first two in one post, if that's ok! (I'll answer the PitayaFire one separately)
Don't you know that the truest, most profound kind of love is born not beneath the soft, pale light of the full moon, not in the sound of a pair's steps as they dance the night away, not within the warmth and security of a tender embrace, but within the walls of the solitary confinement cell in the "dangerous and violent" housing section of a psych ward? LOL jk. It's really fun writing a lovesick/obsessed person for some reason. I don't have this dynamic for any of my other ships, this is the first time I've opted to explore a darker, more uncomfortable and unstable route/interpretation of a "relationship" and it's honestly been a blast lol. (I DO also ship mutual BurningCheese, but under specific conditions, AKA Burning Spice has a redemption arc and GC falls for him on her own. I just can't justify them being together if he's still evil. So long as he is, the love is one-sided)
I really am grateful for your compliments and encouragement. I've got a super big and important BurningCheese fic in the oven rn, but I do need to actually focus on real life for a bit, so it'll be some time. I'll be posting drabbles on here and a fic or two on AO3 where BS is NOT dangerously insane, just a regular asshole who's down bad lol
You can rest assured that my crazy diamond will continue shining on long after I get tired of these games about talking cookies. I always loved writing, it's my favorite hobby and it's my only way of expressing my creativity since I can't draw to save my life. I actually have a 100% original work I've been tinkering with for a loooong time, but I always wanted that story to be told in comic form, and to do that... I have to learn to draw lol. (And that's... a really big mountain to climb. I want to climb it more than anything, but I don't know if I can. Feels like I keep slipping and falling on my ass every time I try to take and retake the first step on the first rock, you know? Idk how anyone does it, honestly...) In any case, I'm truly grateful for you and everyone else who bothers to look at my work and actually thinks it's good for some reason
Did you see that gacha animation though 👀 The way BS is looking at her 👀 y'all can't tell me he ain't thirsty. Look at that twinkle in his eye. Look at that smile. He wants to tear up more than just those wings, I'm telling you 👀 Shadow Milk is a silly billy, he thinks puppet shows and gaslighting are how you flirt with people. Mystic Flour is probably just like "what. What is this. Who is this man. Why is he handsome. Why do I feel this way. Emotions are futile. Love is ephemeral. I will not stray from the path. I will trap him in my mind prison and torture him. That will fix it. He will surrender to apathy. He will return my soul jam. He will see how smart and correct I am. Cloud Haetae will sing my praises to him until he believes them. Yes. That is what will happen. Victory is mine. I am Very Normal about this." Burning Spice? Down horrendous. Down crazy. When GC is there, it's like no one else is in the room. Won't stop smiling. Only mentions the Soul Jam once, focuses on her specifically the whole rest of the time. First real thing he says to her is how much she impresses him. Throws a tantrum after their fight essentially because she didn't step on him hard enough. Down bad. Down bad. Down bad. Ain't no way he isn't. You can't change my mind
Sorry for rambling. TL;DR: Yo Socrates, it's a fucking cookie (also thank you for your support)

How does one organize thoughts, piece together plotlines, fill in the gaps, lay everything down in a specific order that makes sense to the narrative, and more importantly COMMITS AND GETS PAST THE PLANNING STAGE
(rhetorical question haha...unless)
Writers amaze me. Idk how y'all make novel length stories out of putting together words.
Don't mind me, Im just feeling appreciative for the people who write. Thank you, Curly 💜
Well hello Pixel! I know this is a rhetorical ask, but let me impart some of my wise wisdoms upon ye.
Write down all the things you WANT to include. From there it might be a little easier to figure out the narrative order in which they happen (ex. I can't torture Leo in his cell with Viper yet because he hasn't refused to fight yet). It should be vague and gap-filled. Like a skeleton!
The easiest way to start (for me, at least) is at the beginning. In order to get to the next thing I want to happen, I think of the best and most exciting, effective, painful, or dramatic way to get there, which lets me string the pieces together.
If you're having trouble thinking of how to string the gaps together, IT'S OKAY TO TIME SKIP. IT REALLY IS. If you don't want to write (or draw, because comics, you know?) the next part because it's boring, then either find a way to make it interesting to you, or SKIP IT. Travel times are especially rough for me, so I just hard cut to the destination.
Also if you're having trouble stringing the gaps together, skip ahead. I got stuck on chapter 16, so I worked on 17 and 18 until I figured out what to do. If course, this doesn't work for everyone. My dear writer friend absolutely CANNOT write out of order. But I, personally, find if you're excited to write (or draw, because comics) something in the future DO IT NOW before you lose your excitement for the scene. When you end up there chronologically, there will be some things you have to fix but you can still use the bones of the scene or certain electric lines to help rebuild the scene even better.
Honestly, Pixel? In order to make it past the planning stage, you just have to jump in.
The DAY I texted DrSmer and said "hey I actually wanna write this idea I've been bouncing around for the past week" I sat down and wrote an outline. And then, because I had more time, I thought "What the heck, I can start writing the first scene."
"Later" is the project killer.
Thanks for giving me the chance to ramble, dear Pixel! I love getting to talk about behind the scenes stuff, writing processes, and all that jazz. Hope this was helpful?
#thank YOU for voiceing your appreciation :}#i know your question was rhetorical but too bad! you get a writier ramble!#mwahahahaaaa#cookie crumbs#my writing#swsa btw#swsa ask#swsa#asks#thank you for the ask!#dear pixel#writing#writers on tumblr#writers of tumblr#writer problems#by the way this is all my personal experience so it may not work for everyone!

I love your most recent Miguel fic! I do have a question tho for my hearts sake? Is Miguel actually fucking all those girls? Idk why but I don’t think I could ever look past someone doing that in my vicinity and then seeing potential romantic relationships with them… like I wouldn’t be able to look past how infatuated he seems with all of them in the moment and it would be hard not to compre myself to the tule of girl he brings in, my trust issues would be BUZZZIN lol.
If so, could I ask what made you characterize him as such? Was it like more a trope that caught your attention so you decided to explore it? Or does he really seem like the type to you? All are very genuine and curious questions by the way I love love your writing it’s incredible💕
Hey, happy to answer the question, so I'll spoil under the cut!
short answer: yes and no
long answer: he has a history of sleeping around, but isn't actively sleeping with them.
I do think this version of Miguel (combo of film and comics) sleeps around but not necessarily for the sake of it. his daughter died 3 years ago, a daughter he had young already, so he is emotionally stunted, and unable to deal with his loss. he's searching for intimacy and unable to commit due to both his grief and family history. I'm writing him loosely along the lines of comic Miguel's backstory: abusive (non-bio) dad, conchata's (his mum) behaviour towards that etc, etc - and how he's felt duty to take care of the people around him, and failed twice, in his eyes (his family, and then gabi).
it's more of a ploy to get reader riled up and potentially out of the house. I've attempted to set up that reader is very passive and avoidant, even when things go wrong around the house, so he is essentially escalating to see when she'll snap and react - bro is a scientist and is experimenting lmfao. the people he's faking sleeping around with he has slept with in the past / has a friendship with so they kinda go along with it cuz a) they think it's harmless and b) let him get away with it cuz he's had a rough few years. Reader is also an unreliable narrator: a lot of aggression and situations are exaggerated / perceived wrong; which also infuriates Miguel to no end, hence why he keeps escalating. this is still kind of insane, but it's a fic so who cares lmfao
I'm also trying to establish a reluctance to commit with reader due to last relationships - which us why they will (eventually) fall into a fwb situation. and then all the emotions and insecurity (on both ends) as y'all pretend the relationship is surface level.
anyways this is a long ass way to say people grieve in different ways, he hasn't really worked through his baggage, and it's affecting how he interacts with other people. I understand the emotional implications and there's no way in hell that I personally cld be with a straight up fuckboy - which is why I'm writing him more complicated than that.
thank you for the question anon and i hope this isn't too boring 😭

Lloyd x Valerie (oc) headcanons because I'm bored :)
they're very different people, ngl, but they do have a lot of things in common too, so I'm using this post as a way too explore them as a duo/couple
-------------------
met during the tournament of sources, but she barely payed attention to him
they actually hated each other at first, enduring the other due to a bigger good
both are night owls. Even before getting along, they would be awake in the middle of the night due to insomnia, and would bond since they can't fall asleep (and the silence was awkward)
because of this, they have almost daily midnight conversations (may or may not post a comic about this... i mean i wrote a script, i have to use it!)
comic nerds. However, Valerie likes horror (and romance), Lloyd likes sci fi. Therefore, i heavily think they'd look for horror sci fi stuff to read/watch together
just imagine this two watching serial experiments lain, ghost in the shell or paprika. OR ALIEN!
once they start dating, they'd be going to music and comic store dates. I think of them as a very casual couple, soo they'd have simple dates that don't even look like dates
"wow, this date was so nice!" "Wait, it was a date?"
Valerie would teach him to play guitar
Lloyd loves to ramble to her about Star Fairer comics, and she loves to listen, despite not understanding a thing
She tried giving the comics a chance, but only felt entertained by the movie/tv seires of it
i headcanon Lloyd having 2a wavy hair, but he has no idea how to properly take care of it. Valerie, who has 2c wavy hair, would help him and teach him how to care for it
he tries to help her overcome her pyrophobia. the results are disastrous, ofc
"how are you so afraid of fire yet owns a lighter that you frequently use?" "*shrugs*
sometimes during their midnight talks they end up falling asleep together
they hug each other while sleeping
Valerie's love language is touch, so i think she hugs Lloyd a lot. He fucking loves it
both are punk and listen to punk music when hanging out or training
she made him try brigadeiro (or brazilian truffles, brazilian fudge balls, or idk how y'all call it) mochi, and he's very much addicted to it now
they both run on energy drinks and hate coffee
she DID write some songs about HIM
She also showed him a few of those after a while, and she cringed every single second of it. However Lloyd felt super appreciated and loved it
Valerie comforts Lloyd when he cries or when he has panic or anxiety attacks. She usually hugs him, caresses his hair and lets him cry (although I can imagine her singing to him too aaaaa)
She is aware that Lloyd has never been in a proper relationship before her, she tries her best to make him comfortable
Also they're the kind of couple to forget their anniversary, mostly due to "the world almost ending" every day it's kinda hard to remember
Okay, I think I covered everything I could in one post (and I'll definitely make more, just don't know when)

So what was the thought process you and @twinanimatronics had for Moon and DJMM being besties?
Like I know that's a huge fanon thing (though i think y'all were one of the early ones) but is it something yall based on game data or character analysis?
Ohhh!!!
A pretty good question.
I think part of it had to do with @factual-fantasy's wonderful au and comics of the DJ being very close buds with Sun and Moon.
But I think there was a bit more to it then that.
I think I just wanted a fanfiction mostly centered around Moon and the DJ's friendship because they're both Security bots and are the only two animatronics in the Pizzaplex that go back to being "mainly chill" after their initial segment. (Moon showing up at every hourly recharge being super easy to avoid outside his initial Daycare Segment and Sun just stays in the slide all other times)
I also remember seeing the headcanon in @paper-lilypie's old comics that Moon had a music box, which was a popular hc, that Ceph and I have actually proved to be canon with our rabid exploring of the Pizzaplex map like its an archeological dig site.
Made me get to thinking if Moon used his music box often, what songs would he use?
Also got me thinking about how the DJ makes up his own songs on rotation to avoid copyright. He's essentially an AI generated song prompt, but far more endearing and self-aware. DJMM makes his own bouncer chase music to capture Gregory and that's pretty endearing to me.
Thought about Moon stealing DJ's songs to use in his music box. (and yes, I know real life music boxes are made with a set song in mind and he can't rotate them unless there are discs in there. But idk. lol don't think about the mechanics of this too hard of how a music box actually works)
Made me think that Moon would like relaxing Lofi beats that the DJ would make for him.
Lofi Beats to Capture Children to was initially planned to be five chapters. Just showing glimpses into the lives of DJMM and Moon interacting, from a more DJ-themed perspective, with the pov changing between Moon and the DJ...
But I kept adding more things into there.
Once I realized Sun had to be a character in this, the perspective strictly stayed with Sun and Moon.
Like an OC that was meant to just be a foil, and die for character development for the Daycare Attendant turned out to be more complex then I thought as he just became a worse version of myself and I wanted to see him get better so I made a spin-off entirely about him.
I realized I wanted to have Vanny in this, because I love Vanessa. I wanted to show the toxic but completely codependent relationship the DCA has with Vanessa. Because... Well, let's face it, Vanessa is a non-character in her own game. Many fans don't love her in the way I do. Even the most hard wired DCA fans don't really have anything to say about Vanny/Vanessa.... and either ignore she exists... or she's a meangirl background character not important to the plot. Despite the fact that Vanny and Moon's relationship is the driving force for so many things that happen in Security Breach. To the point where the Daycare Attendant is literally a thematic parallel to the Vanny/Vannessa relationship... Something I've been screaming about since Security Breach came out and no one listened.... But I was right. To the Point it's explicitly confirmed in Help Wanted 2.
And I also realized that if Sun was going to be a character, I had to establish life for them for a good chunk of it and how fast things go down. I had to determine whether I wanted them to be their separate things, or one person with DID. And ... While I do think that DID is actually canon..... it's something I don't have experience with writing, and I feel that I would end up saying or portraying it offensively. Especially since the DCA already kinda has the "bad alter" archetype in canon. Plus, to coexist with Twins where they get seperated and they're learning to be their own people... It just makes more sense to have a level of miscommunication between the two. So we understand Sun's fear and need for control. (like in canon Sun has no reason to string up fairylights in his dark room... other then just to never have moon switch over and make him uncomfortable. There's no kids in their room to capture. The generators can stay on in the pizzaplex and their room could be dark and the children would be safe. Sun is making it so Moon can't switch at all... and while that is horrible for Moon, it's important to see where that level of distrust and anger and controlling behavior stems from, and why Moon might be afraid of him in twins)
And If I wanted the DJMM to be friends with Moon, I also needed excuses for Moon to go there. I also needed to consider his relationship with the other Glamrocks and animatronics in the pizzaplex. I had to show how isolated Sun was and how much Sun cared for the kids, genuinely.
So the whole thing snowballed and it sometimes becomes intimidating to work on.
I guess long story short... The DJ is cool. And Moon is cool. I love them both and they make a really great non-verbal pair.
I absolutely love Lofi. So thanks for sending this ask. I know I haven't updated in awhile. But you think being unemployed would give me more freetime... lol but I'm mostly depressed and stressed.

more loonatics headcanons / shenanigans...
i've been on such a binge watch of lu that I just need to post abt it okay leave me alone
BUT I'VE NOTICED THINGS !!! (this is s2 ep4) !! you kind of get an insight of what they all like to do and things they enjoy with these bedroom stills.
ACE:
obviously: likes carrots, cute lil bunny.
HIS LIL DOORMAT DJSNGJSDNJK
i couldn't zoom in enough to see what's on his monitor but you know he likes to watch shows before bed. relatable content.
the fact he's got two side tables as well gives me eating in his bed vibes but also he'd be clean abt it. i also think he'd be a big comic book reader. not sure what, but he would be. I'll let y'all decide.
speaking on that, there's a shelf with books on the far right so yeah. i think he'd also read manga bc of his anime complex. he may also keep some sort of CDs ? maybe vinyls ???
i know this man keeps katanas and a dartboard in his room.
he's a snowboarder !!!! THAT'S SO COOL. he must be a god bc this man is AGILE.
he's got a skyline view PHEWWWWW rich ass mf
also. an aquarium on his right (our left) which is so fun I wonder what kinds of marine life they'd keep!!!
I'm also not sure what the compartment behind his head is for but I think its a closed-off bookshelf or space for his knick-knacks. i also see a fireplace too but idk how logical that is lol
LEXI:
NOW WHY SHE SLEEPING IN A HAMMOCK WHEN THE GIRLIE COULD HAVE A QUEEN SIZED BED ??? she's quirky like that ig. whatever makes her comfy. (I know she'd upgrade, I just know. just bc she can sleep anywhere doesn't mean she's always comfortable.)
a phone/pager by her bed is so real
THE WALLPAPER IS BEACHY IT'S SO CUTE
she's a SKIIER AND A SURFER. WHAT CAN'T SHE DO. (seasickness who)
cabinet obvi for storage, idk why she'd have anything important in there besides old childhood items it's so high up???
lower shelves are for books and things maybe. or video games.
AND DO YOU SEE THE AQUARIUM ??? THIS CONFIRMS THAT LEXI AND ACE HAVE NEIGHBOURING BEDROOMS AND NO ONE CAN CHANGE MY MIND. there has to be some type of barrier/wall between the two tanks for privacy reasons but I'M DEAD GNFDGNDJKFNJDFNKHK MY BABIES
opposing skyline views so iconic... i know she takes mad insta pictures (or duck takes them) to get good sunset shots
i believe the items on the table are her laptop, a makeup bag andddd maybe a clutch purse? just a guess bc they're so tiny.
laptop makes sense. it'd be hard but she could still try to get an education on the side??? lots of work for a girl but she's a boss like that.
makeup for obvious reasons
clutch purse for nights out
SLAM:
THE WAY I'D BE SO SCARED FOR THAT WEIGHT TO DROP ON MY HEAD. SLAM IS A TROOPER WTF
I remember sumth abt that cylinder thingy on the left but I can't remember what it's for yet. will update when the ep comes.
MANS IS AN INTELLECTUAL !! those are all comic books (like ace, they bond) and language workbooks.
the poster of pizza is SO REAL OF HIM
there's a teeny tiny chute beside his door and I wonder what it's for. maybe it's a scanner? idk
light above his head is also...a choice.
i'd like to think that the things at the end of his bed are air purifiers and that slam has some sort of breathing issue when he goes to sleep. maybe he grinds his jaw or is a mouth breather;;;
computer for gaming tings and other endeavours
A WHOLE ASS TREADMILL YEAH BUDDY U STAY IN SHAPE.
i know this man doesn't have a WHOLE ASS DRUMSTICK IN HIS BED. but makes sense. he totally eats in bed BUT IS MESSY ABT IT. duck and lexi HATE IT IT'S NASTY HAHAH they ask him to switch his sheets and vacuum almost everyday
DUCK:
THIS MAN IS SO CONCEITED I CAN'T Y'ALL.
but like ace, he also has a tv by his bed I know he and lexi would watch romcoms together
K-DRAMAS???? SPECIFICALLY SINGLES INFERNO (only bc s3 just came out, it's on the brain) duck just boasts abt how he's better looking than all of the other males while lexi is very much about the relationships/drama
his little peek-a-boo window behind his head is so cute :"))))
I have no god damn clue what that thing is beside him on the left but I'm sure it's important
but he wears headphones to sleep !!! must need white noise or rain to sleep
control panel for his lights and other digitally controlled shit in his room
THIS MAN HAS SO MANY MAGAZINES AND NEWSPAPER ARTICLES ABOUT HIMSELF AND THE LOONATICS (but only bc he is in them, thank yew) I also think he'd carry a lot of fashion magazines too. things that are in. the second a fad ends he's done w it
I'm assuming this is an arcade game setup, but i think he'd love Mario kart :) him and tech love to battle on this but move it to the main room bc duck thinks tech is cheating bc "the screen is two small".
i know this man would sleep with mf silk sheets and a fleece comforter he's a bougie bitch
computer for obvious reasons
REV:
i had to include all four shots bc he is a sleepwalker/runner LOOK AT HOW CUTE HE IS ;U;
it looks like he sleeps in a casket-like bed (hence, the lid is open top centre) I believe he only has this open when he's awake so idk who forgot to close it. it needs to be closed so that when rev does actually get up and sleepwalks, he's contained. the last thing the loonatics want to wake up to is the house completely trashed bc rev had a dream he was running from something. so casket bed it was.
that's also why. he doesn't sleep with sheets. if he trips and falls oh lord. therefore he wears super warm pjs in the winter to not freeze to death
he's got a ton of books, rightfully so, I think he and tech would share this bookcase because it would have different manuals, blueprints and miscellaneous mechanical guides. robot guides. that too. i also think rev would be that person who re-reads his childhood books over and over again and not get sick of them ever
there is also a treadmill in this room I just know it
a tv as well. idk where, but I hc it's there.
TECH:
thanks for giving me nothing to work with here
I kind looked forward into the ep and there's a smidge of the bedroom in a frame but idk what the other shit could be
but I know his room is very clean. it's SPOTLESS. everything is organized and well put together.
I'm going to ignore the fact he suckles his thumb bc this man is 24 years old BYE
there's a whole bunch of ai robots in there to do anything he wants.
he is also the other loonatic who has their own bathroom. he only got it bc he won the straw draw. well, ace won technically, but gave it to tech bc he was the oldest and would keep it in the best shape. duck still hasn't forgiven him for it.
he shares it with lexi since she's the only lady in the house :) ain't no way she shares with the boys.
the others share the other bathroom. one more gets installed later but the other four are SOL
tech also has a nice walk-in closet
he needs to take melatonin b4 bed bc this man is noctournal
has drones scattered on shelves, ones he's built and ones he's collected from professors and other inventors
AAAAND THAT'S IT. THANKS FOR COMING TO ANOTHER TED TALK LOL I'MMA GO FINISH S2 XOXO
#faves: lu#loonatics unleashed#viv speaks#looney tunes#loonatics headcanons#nah i popped off#i love my kids to BITS IDC.#i have so many more hcs AAAAAA#my brain is a wormhole of knowledge#i hate hyperfixating on things but i love them at the same time lol#anywayyyys i'll be back most likely haha#xoxoxo

Hello, wanted to pop in an ask if an ask I sent like maybe a week ago was nuked by tumblr or not, it's the ask comparing Jason to The King in Yellow's in-universe script play and the play's Act 2
Don't worry if it did get nuked cuz I have the original text I put in my ask saved on my computer and can just send it again if that's the case
Highest apologies for any pressure you feel because of this ask, don't feel such nor the need to respond faster to asks due to mine, I just wanna make sure my ask wasn't nuked
Hi!!
Absolutely don't mind answering this or if anyone else has questions on whether Tumblr gobbles up your ask. I did get this one, so no worries ^^
I did want to take this ask just to clarify that some of y'all's asks are taking a while to respond to. It's not cause I don't want to, or I won't (just putting that reassurance out there). There's just been an increase in how many asks I'm getting that it's been a wee bit hard to keep up with.
I love love love y'all's asks. So much. Unbelievable so. There are 0 issues with sending in asks. Even though there's a lot in my ask box, feel free to send more (I get anxiety, so I'm trying to reassure anyone else who might get some about this response).
Sometimes, I can't respond to an ask for a bit due to the other asks, and I'm trying to give each one the time they deserve. My brain just doesn't always cooperate :(
However, I will absolutely answer any asks that aren't mean (I've only had one mean one so far, so we're usually good in that department).
I do apologize to the asks that have been sitting in there for about a month or so, but it's not cause of their content. Idk if I need to reassure that, but it's never about their content.
I'm trying to answer 'em in order, but my brain can be a jerk. I've also probably thrown myself into too many hobbies (gaming, answering asks, two blogs, reviewing comics, and fanfic writing and reading).
Essentially, this entire response is, "It's not you, it's me," lmao.
I very much enjoy asking, and I'm excited to answer them when I get the chance ^^
#thank you for the ask!!!!#i have been feeling anxious about whether to say anything about why ask response time has gotten longer#thanks for providing the opportunity to chat about it ^^

Nimona appreciation post (Part 4 of idk how many there will be)
Sorry that took so long, I was a bit preoccupied with farming for Rizzley (Wriothesley in Genshin Impact) I'm just drinking some Tea and watching Nimona for probably the 50th time lol Sooo… here you go: Part 4 (again: GIF for attention)
Bal waking up, noticing the blanket, looking around, seeing the tea and candles (completely ignoring the hilt of the morning star behind te cup) and just sighing kind of content as if he wakes up like this often is just precious and supptly highlights his relationship with Amb and I just kind of love it, I guess
also Bal being awake and alert right away even tho he was just about to relax cause he prob thought he's with Amb and all is good and stuff is also kind of competent again
Nimona just vibing
"Go" by Santigold is just so good, how did I never heard of that one before?
also how Bal looks at Nim (prob) destroying his kitchen is funny as hell, idk
her eyes reflecting the lightning is a neat lil detail
Nim never bats an eye while she lies like this
also Bals reaction is soooo good, Riz Ahmed nailed this roll (all of the VAs did, but honestly: without him the movie wouldn't be the same)
first time Nim tells him directly not to be so gullible, but he remains so gullible
Breakfast Tacos
She dragged him in what form tho? If his head bounced on the sidewalk it probably couldn't have been her Gorilla or Horse form, I guess. What do y'all think?
"Totally happened."
"Evil Larry" is a much better name than the german version ("Böser Tiger" = "evil tiger" because one wird for evil in german is "bösartiger" and well, they took the pun but it sounds so stupid, idk… it isn't even a name)
Nimonas lil handgesture when she says: "That's a great villain name." also her face when she gets the idea for Evil Larry
"Never gonna happen.", he says with a very much Nope-Face "Whatever, Larry", she says without a fruk to give
Sick murderwall
I will not go into much detail about the contents of the muderwall here, but damn, the really didn't need to go that hard on those details
One thing I'm gonna cram in here tho cause I just saw the portrait of the queen: I recently read somewhere that they wanted to get Dr. Blitzmeyer (I hope I remember her name correctly lol) in the movie but ultimately scrapped her buuut they kept the design/color scheme for the queen and I just… Blitzmeyer helped and supported Comic!Bal, the queen helped and supported Movie!Bal (even if it's a bit of a different relationship, I guess) and that's kinda cute ngl. I kinda missed Dr. Blitzmeyer, she was my fav character in the comic and I was a bit sad that she didn't make it into the movie
Bals face (and probably the camera movement) when he remembers what happened when they broke out of the institute reminds me of some anime protag who goes a bit insane, but I can't remember a particular anime I feel remembered of
Bal always the knight, trying to get his sword when he feels threatened, even tho he doesn't even have it on him
the hand gesture to "Meatball" lol and also: very nice line delivery by Chloe Grace Moretz, she's also a big part of why I liked the character of Nimona (even tho I also like her design and personality, without a good VA a character can be not that likeable, if you know what I mean)
again with the eyes reflecting lightning, I love the lighting in this movie so much
she is in fact a massive, fire-breathing something
Bals brain just overheated and he decided to just roll with it and ask
She's Nimona. (one of my fav lines ever and I love that she get's to say that in at least one other scene)
I have a feeling that Bals answer to "I'm Nimona." ("That is not an answer.") is maybe something trans/genderfluid people get more than me (and def shouldn't cause why do they need to even get that? Why can't everyone just accept stuff like that?)
Bal getting at least one question is actually very nice of Nim ngl
also him not asking something about her but why she's helping him is kinda neat, I think he felt that that maybe would be a bit to much in Nimonas personal space atm
Bals eyes widen for just a second when Nim answers him and he remembers what situation he is in is kinda sad (btw. much of this movie wouldn't worked for me if they weren't so damn much animated/if they wouldn't be so much little details in the gestures, mannerisms and whatnot of the people)
him straight going to thinking-mode when looking at the murder.. I mean innocence wall
Bal looking sad at Ambs portrait is kind of a mood ngl
also him kind of forcing himself to look away (down), breathing in and then looking at the complete wall again is so very human, those charcters just feel to real
best photo of Diego (the squire)
Love how Nim wants to say kill him and stops herself when Bal turns towards her, without a doubt with a look on his face that says: Noooooo, bad shapeshifter
His reaction to "Let's got get him. You and me." is priceless lol
Bals hesitation (and probably inner monolouge) is kinda fun to see but also very undertandable, I mean: he knows her how long now? And even tho he redeems himself fast enough, here he is very much and very heavy still under the brain washing of the Institute and knows now that Nim is not human, so I kinda understand why he's so hesitant but he's desperate and she can (and will) voluntarily help him
Nim just rubbing salt in the wound, cause she knows exactly that he doesn't have much of a choice
He clearly wondered how she got there so fast and I love these kind of little reactions throughout the movie, they show how vigilant the character are and it feels even more real, cause let's be honest: if you're talking to someone who is like 10 steps away, you blink and then they are right before you, you'd also not gloss over that without so much as a second glance, would you?
love that Nim already moved from Sidekick-for-a-evil-villain to clear-his-name-and-be-a-hero-sidekick
Bal still not really trusting her but debating it
the shark transformation is just nice: the fluidity, the sound effect, Nims look, the lighting, the fact that you probably didn't really expect it, just *chefs kiss*
her "I'm not a girl, I'm a shark." is also very iconic, even tho it's used just one time in the movie; still one of the best lines ngl also her face when she says "But I'm not a girl." and the lil bite animation and sound is very nice
"Hey. You ever put your head in the mouth of one of these?", that line delivery and the animation for that and Bal already being done with the convo lol
"Should've just stayed in jail." lol
That's it for this part, I hope y'all are ok with the length, it really feels a bit smoother to write ^^ Have a good one and until next time :)

I wish I could comment but I can't so:
oh my godddd I know this is kind of counterproductive or, like, just pointless for me to say this as a white person adding noise to the conversation but please please PLEASE DO NOT LET THOSE PEOPLE GET TO YOU!
I've only found ur acc recently since I've joined tumblr instead of lurking and your art is some of the best I've seen.
I have Aphantasia and general face blindness irl, so defining features (not even ethnic features, just general appearances) in drawings are the main thing I've had to focus on my whole life because I struggle to accurately display them in my art.
I've practiced and studied countless art styles and ways people have drawn and depicted eyes, eyelids, mouths, hair, skin, lips, noses, faces, body types, etc. Of course it differs depending on the art style, but you literally managed to perfect the way you draw individual features in your characters that make them not only stand out from eachother, but as characters with unique and diverse backgrounds.
I don't wanna clog up ur inbox too much, so without repeating the whole thing again, I will say that I also saw @cheeseburgersinparadise's comment on your post and I was thinking the exact same thing.
Idk what these people want you to do short of making racial caricatures or stereotypical depictions of people.
So here's some things I really enjoy about your artwork instead:
Little differences in body type are noticeable and really cool to see
you're very consistent in your character's personalities and depictions, so even if in one drawing they have their hair tied up and in another it's just completely natural, I can still tell who it is at just a glance!
Despite what the armchair critics say, the skin tones you use are really good and I can tell they're well thought out.
Your lineart is awesome. I've never been able to use the uhhh the one effect (I forgot the name) that makes the lines all sharp and stuff without my drawing looking like a SBAHJ comic parody/shitpost, but in your drawings it looks super neat and has a cool kind of side effect where it highlights the colors and stuff, making it all really pop but at the same time feel really like.. story and held together? I'm terrible at describing visuals I'm sorry but just know it's good! You know how to actually use brushes and effects/overlays.
facial expressions. You nail them every time. 'nuff said.
Same Face Syndrome fears you.
"try exploring shape language" idk what crack these people are smoking because your art is like the pinnacle of good use of shape language in drawings. It reminds me of Canadian cartoons (IN A GOOD WAY. I GET CANADIAN RADIO/TV SIGNALS, I GREW UP WITH IT) where it's like 'less is more' in terms of line detail and instead putting the focus on the basic shapes in a way that can make even the quickest sketches/simplest versions of a drawing look lively
if nobody else got me, the tumblr crowd got me fr 🥹💖
It's hard to articulate how much this means to me (hence why it took a bit for me to answer this ask lol) because like. I don't know if y'all remember that one episode of iCarly where one of Spencer's favorite artists just blew him tf off and it lowkey ruined his life for a while, but I felt just like that fr
It can be really frustrating sometimes being a silly kink artist(TM) and feeling like because I have a particularly cartoony art style and don't often draw the most extreme WG art, I get kind of overlooked and treated like IDK what I'm doing sometimes, y'know? I never went to art college and studied drawing there, other than one cartooning class I took for funsies at a community college, my knowledge comes from what I learned throughout grade school and studied myself with online resources or books at the library. So sometimes it DOES FEEL A LITTLE like certain huge artists who did go to college for that turn a nose up at artists like me.
It's the craziest feeling when someone makes a criticism on your work that's just like, objectively unhelpful or even hypocritical, and then doubles down and like subtly paints you as one who just can't accept criticism. Because if I couldn't, then you wouldnt have such kind specific compliments on my art hahaha. My lineart is so clean because I took the advice from an art teacher when I was 16 and it was shaky. I keep facial features and whatnot simpleish and cartoony so I can depict expressions in a more fun way.
Hell, that artist's "fair criticism" about leaning into ethnic features more may have been referring to the fact that Shay doesn't have a noise here. This is seen in some other pieces of mine, too
but that was intentional... a gentle nod to certain anime facial expressions were they leave the nose out for Extra Effect
It's a little ode to the funny facial expressions in Sailor Moon that do much of the same
Speaking of the lineart effect, heh, I'm soooo touched someone noticed it omg?? ;0;
I like to duplicate my lineart and put the top layer on multiply with a lighter (usually warm) color and guassian blur it and then the bottom layer with a bright (often brighter) and then guassian blur it even more before setting it to glow dodge :^)
I feel vindicated that I wasn't just like. overreacting when I was DEEPLY offended by the "helpful criticism"
I feel like whoever made the skin color comment just. forgot about the concept of lighting in a dim room 💀💀💀 It was so crazy to me that she was talking to me like I haven't been drawing these characters for years at this point and use the same base skin color like. 98% of the time
ALSO DW I THINK THE CANADIAN CARTOON COMMENT IS A BIG COMPLIMENT CUZ I USED TO WATCH A LOT OF THEM ALL THE TIME!! 6teen is one of my dearly beloveds fr and a friend of mine said my art style reminded him of that so 🥺🥺🥺
TLDR: thank you for being a real one and the heartfelt ask I will be mentally hanging this up on my fridge 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 (also sorry Tumblr is wack and wont let you reply to posts smh)
#long post#Noodle answers#fave#considering the fact I was expecting hate from the artist's huge fanbase even tho I left the name out#this is the best case scenario fr fr

listen the nostalgia of it all carried me a good long way and maybe i'm grumpy bc i'm sick but i gotta be honest with y'all, my final impression of x-men '97 is that it is utterly incoherent
granted, my familiarity with most of the storylines they're pulling from here is low -- synopses and recaps, if i know anything at all, and my comics readership has always been spotty at best -- but... do bastion's motivations and actions make any sense in the books? and frankly i think they did my boy mister sinister dirty...
but i think the pacing was where it suffered the most. idk, i feel like each individual episode started slow and unfocused, yet still rushed to wrap up storylines, where tas might have just sprawled all over some multiparters. but in the current make-or-break tv environment, '97 can't afford to take its time, it has to throw all the big spaghetti at the wall right away, and it scrambles to too-fast, too-pat resolutions -- but because it's controlled by the mouse now, it also has to resolve with feel-good moral messages in a way that frankly clashes with the intentionally complex tradition of x-men. the three-part finale was some of the worst, pastede on storytelling i've seen since the last time i watched a steven binder episode of ncis. it also was unclear to me how much of tas was canon and how much has been retconned and how much was just, like, establishing the vibes but ditching the storylines. (then again, confusion is just the standard state of affairs re: x-men canon.)
which is not to say that everything was terrible -- this show loves a heroic monologue, and most of those were actually quite powerful. the art style works. the voice cast (returning and new) works. lenore zann is a standout for me; she's so much more mature as a performer now (obvi) and she brings so much more depth to rogue than she could 30 years ago. making our heroes more powerful, as you know, made me positively giddy (although i will say that cyclops's primal yells inspired laughter rather than awe). if "tolerance is extinction" 1–3 were the worst episodes, i think "remember it" and "bright eyes" were the best -- strongest plots and tightest character beats. and truly, they did my faves so good: gambit was perfect, rogue (incoherent retconned backstory aside) was perfect, nightcrawler was perfect, jubilee was perfect. all the homoerotically-charged wolverine-and-morph everything was perfect. jean and storm's friendship was perfect. beast rejecting trish tilby in the ruins of genosha was perfect. jubilee and roberto visiting his mom, and her nutball wealthy privilege -- perfect.
the storm-and-forge stuff unfortunately fell flat for me, mostly bc the "lifedeath" episodes suffered from so many weird racist overtones. and of course all the convoluted summers clan stuff was also a miss, because the only summers i give two shits about is rachel -- but this version of jean grey (and madelyne pryor) was more compelling than most.
i don't know, maybe this is the same cynicism that has led to my current stubborn resistance to popular media, that chased me away from the mcu*, that has had me keep my distance from the glut of remakes and reboots, and that has basically stopped me from getting into any new shows for literally years. but it's hard for me not to see this as an empty cash grab, just marvel and disney playing on millennial nostalgia to capture streaming subscriptions and sell merch -- which, frankly, is all they have done with any of their properties for the last 4-5 years anyway. and i have never paid disney plus a red cent and i never will (yo ho), but it also just. doesn't feel good to watch. makes me tired. throws me out of my suspension of disbelief. being able to see the forces of capitalism nakedly at work in a piece of media really takes the enjoyment out of it for me, you know?
#... but will i be coming back for s2 and death!gambit? yes obviously#thinky thoughts#sworn to protect a world that hates and fears them#*is it cynicism? or is it the same offputting decisions made by the same controlling interests?

I know that listening to comic twitter is like a questionable choice, but in my defense, I'm really not. There's just this one thing that someone said that bothered me about batfam content.
They said something along the lines of hating them being nice to each other and basically supported any slight example of niceness as "Out of character fanon fanservice bs," and you know, to some extent, I get it. Some people lean too hard into the happy family dynamic with them when it doesn't really fit. On the other hand, referring to any amount of niceness as out-of-character just feels like an incorrect generalization.
I get that they are fucked up in so many ways. However, sometimes I question if any of y'all ever had siblings or if you somehow don't have major family problems (or maybe just too many).
Cause to me, family has always been something balancing between chaotic and painful and chaotic and pleasant. We can have deep conversations about the fucked up shit in our lives and be responsible for that same fucked up shit.
Like my mom could file several attempted murder charges against my aunt several times in her life, but they also took painting classes together on occasion. Every single one of my uncles is a criminal, and yet they call their siblings regularly, sometimes to ask for money, but they still ask how they're doing. My friend's brother once stabbed her, but it wasn't like fatal, so it's okay (physically). And honestly, I can go on.
I fully realize my experiences affect my perception of reality, but who's doesn't?
idk like I get that there are problems with how some people do it, but every instance isn't the most unbelievable thing. Platonic interactions can be nice and normal while awful shit happens. It's just how family is. Even when it's totally fucked up.
#also the idea of people who don't know how families act is gross batcest shippers thinking any deep conversation is romantic#no you people are weird stop#batcest shippers dni#batman#batfam#bruce wayne#dick grayson#nightwing#jason todd#red hood#tim drake#robin#damian wayne#cassandra cain#batgirl#barbara gordon#stephanie brown#spoiler#gotham knights#first tags basically come from things said about gotham knights#obviously again I'm not saying there aren't people that do what that twitter user said just that sometimes people exaggerate#some of the nice stuff isn't that bad in my opinion and some of it is terrible#I get why people don't like wfa for that (and other things) but admittedly I've never seen that as an 'this is how it always is' thing#wayne family adventures#I think I got everything but I can still clarify if something seems weird

ask game: mjgwen, peterfelicia, kathony ;-)
mj/gwen
1. What made you ship it?
there was this comic scan of mj talking about how gwen got past her party girl persona, and helped her learn to be the kind of person who sticks around when things get hard. it was just such an interesting look into their friendship, and how maybe it could've been more if gwen had lived.
2. What are your favorite things about the ship?
- they're best friends.
- gwen is a more reliable/safer partner than peter (i'm sorry, y'all. i love peter deeply, but mj has been almost killed so many times because of peter being spiderman. and i know shipping mj/felicia is also hypocritical. but i really do think gwen would've been the best partner for mj if she'd survived). plus gwen and mj would've both been really successful. girl bosses.
3. Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?
idk. i can't think of one.
peter/felicia
1. What made you ship it?
i've seen people post stuff about them over the years, and i guess i started shipping them by osmosis?? lol
2. What are your favorite things about the ship?
so i confess i really just now started getting into the spiderman comics, so i don't know a ton about them. but i'll try to list some stuff i like about them.
- i like the idea of peter having a partner who can protect him, as well as them. someone who can delegate with fighting crime or watching over aunt may when things get heated. there was a little mini comic in one of the volumes i was reading on kindle where peter's fighting a giant robot, and felicia has the cops chase her around the city so they won't get in his way or hurt him. it was really sweet. and afterward they have dinner and a movie.
- the potential comedy of them being a couple.
felicia being rich and wanting to spoil him, but he is the worst sugar baby in the world. the only thing he will let her buy is food, and that's only when he's like, on the brink of starvation. she has to coax him to her like one of those feral street cats.
them dealing with each other's mutations. with all the funny, annoying, sexy things that come with it.
peter putting aside his moral code to look the other way when felicia steals lol.
felicia trying to get peter to learn self-care and him resisting her all the way, because he's uncomfortable with feeling too good. (okay, this one isn't funny. it's just sad. 😔)
3. Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?
idk if this is an unpopular take, but i hate stuff where felicia is portrayed as only liking peter in the mask. or where she's like rough and inconsiderate of peter and unsympathetic to his boundaries. they're both victims of sexual assault, and it just rubs me the wrong way. (this is also something i hate in peter/wade fics as well. where there's this lack of care being demonstrated, and i don't agree with it at all.)
kate/anthony
1. What made you ship it?
the moment i saw gifsets of them, i was all in. they were what made me decide to watch the show in the first place.
2. What are your favorite things about the ship?
uuuugghh, okay here's an incoherent list.
- their enemies to lovers dynamic. i love a good enemies to lovers story. their chemistry was crackling just about every scene they were in, and i feel insane every time they're on my screen.
- i love seeing two oldest children find love together, and struggling with wanting someone/something for themselves for the first time.
- i think my favorite thing about them is that while they're sexy together, the best thing is they're a couple who i believe are also each other's best friend (once they get past everything else lol). they always look so happy to be together, and i love that
3. Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?
i don't think i have one. the literal only complaint i have about them is that i didn't get to see enough of them.
#grapecaseschoices#kimi replies#i guess i sort of like peter/felicia for some of the#same reasons i like peter/wade#where both ships have them inspiring each other to change#peter inspiring them to want to be more honorable#and them making peter question his view on what makes things 'good'
