Finally managed to record a bit of David at curtain call 😍

Brilliant seeing this incredible production once again - and getting to see what's different and what isn't 🥹🥰

au where the el tigre tiger spirit is an ancient and sort of prehistoric spirit in the wildest reaches of the ghost zone, and the belt allows it to like... 1/4 possess someone (just giving them some extra powers [including retractible chain hands?? ghosts, idk] without affecting their personality)

I made an Orym edit instead of writing or sleeping

[mllekurtz]

No point in particular I'm trying to make, it just occurred to me I started writing my first shadowgast fanfic around this time FOUR YEARS AGO, and I still think about them EVERY DAY and still write sappy/horny/sappy-and-horny fics about HOW IN LOVE THEY ARE, and somehow canon keeps ENABLING ME (no spoilers), and I'm not alone in this!!!

something that always bothered me about the worm fanfic scene is that they always try to cram everyone together. There's always the scene where taylor meets lisa in a coffee shop or whatever. I get it, it's a fanfic, you can't just make up a character for her to meet.

But one of the things i always liked about worm was that it stayed away from the comic trope of making everyone connected. Like, if Worm was a comic book, Armsmaster would be her teacher, She'd end up being friends with Kid Win, Cherie would attend Winslow, Annette would end up being still alive and a secret agent for Cauldron but with amnesia or something, over-the-top soap opera shit, right?

What I always liked was that in Worm, Taylor's just some girl. She only knows one hero out of costume, and it's the girl who ruined her life. Her dad's just the head of hiring for the union. Her mom was just a college professor. If you asked the mayor about Danny Hebert, he'd say "who?" A lot of fanfics have him be like seinfeldian rivals with the mayor, but like he just writes petitions. If you asked Lustrum about Annette Hebert, she'd have no clue who you're talking about, because Annette was just like a member of her organization.

What I'm trying to stress, is that in superhero comics, everything's connected. Everyone knows everyone. Everyone's a super genius, or met at The Science Expo, or their dad was a famous crime fighter. Comics have all these sorts of big dramatic irony reveals. In comic books, there is never a character who's just some guy.

This sort of thing is great for making everything feel connected, and it's good for keeping out extraneous exposition.

But Worm doesn't do that. It's all just like. They're just regular ass people. Of course they don't know each other. They live in a city with 300 thousand people, none of them would have ever met each other if it weren't for capeshit.

And, I mean, it does remove a lot of the potential for shenanigans but it really does a lot to make everything feel more real.

There's also something there about capeshit being a metaphor for shared trauma where like these people would not know each-other were it not for shared trauma.

The undersiders, the great team, the bestest friend team, they don't meet if not for capeshit. They have no connection to eachother outside this. These are kids who would have never met, they would never have come within 20 degrees of separation were it not for the fact they have powers. This is integral to worm's worldbuilding. It's maybe the closest you ever get to a positive aspect of gaining powers, and yet for so many capes there is no undersiders, just the fighting and loneliness and eventual violent death.

next up in my revamped kj designs: jet star!! 💫

she is so important to me… the space puppy tattoo is partially because of @eggbagelz’ headcanon which i saw and thought “oh definitely jet would LOVE laika” and the design is (with permission) one of my lovely friend @andpierres’ tattoo flash designs and tattoo tickets are available on his kofi if YOU would like to have a space puppy tattoo on your own skin! :)

as with the last two posts, untextured version under the cut for cleaner details and accurate colors!

Renruki Week Day 3: Fashion

Paper dolls? Paper dolls. Paper dolls!

For some reason, I thought it would be fun/good drawing practice to make Renruki paper dolls! This took me ten million years and I nearly died, like, six times!

I felt bad because I got to see them in every single variation of these outfits and you didn't, but then another paper doll post randomly crossed my dash which featured an animation, so please enjoy this fashion show, ordered by appearance! (and no, Renji's sweater is not canon I just really like a man in a cardigan)

Anastasia the Musical sucks so bad. They really said "We're gonna cut the best song from the movie - just axe the absolute banger that is 'In the Dark of the Night' - because we are being SERIOUS and GROWN-UP now. We are A Big Historical Realism Musical Now. This is FOR REAL, okay!? We don't have a SILLY villain like Rasputin! We have Gleb! [Please Just Clap.] We are HISTORICALLY GROUNDED. -- Anyway, here's a musical unironically glorifying the Russian monarchy~~ 💖😌💖😌💖😌💖"

so like...... Due To Life Circumstances, Ren will not be able to edit for GOOMT for little while. i'm going to very much miss her and her quips and dragging me to hell and back in google docs every month and lulling me to sleep with her terrorized screams, but i'm sure she'll be back soon enough she cannot fucking quit me or goomt bc goomt is her controversial and illegitimate redheaded stepchild thrice removed. we know this and we love it

......... but you know what that also means.......? :)?

that means i'm on my own. i'm running sweaty and wild-eyed through slippery halls with a knife in one hand and scissors in the other and zero recollection of how to hold either of them safely. i will perform head-on collisions with each and every wall and corner i can find with such cringe and fervor that crash test dummies will be flopping miserably about during the walk flop of shame home. maybe you already knew - maybe you already saw it in ch 69. maybe you had an inkling in your subconscious that maybe, just perhaps, mayhaps it's a possibility, that Some Amount Of Shenanigans™️ are up.

well.

buckle up and pucker up, my lovely field of buttercups, cuz i'm driving with an expired license and we're going to McDonalds for a coffee and prolonged stay in the ball pit, mark my words

which is all to say, GOOMT ch70 soon :)

Sometimes I read your tags and I can still hear Calum's horrified "double munch" from the thirst tweets video 😂

Imagine how much better (and worse) thirst tweets would've been if they'd mined Tumblr tags for content 😂😭

[forabeatofadrum]

Happy Sunday @martsonmars​ and thanks for the tag. I actually have something to show! I was going to do the “nothing to show ¯\_(ツ)_/¯” banner, since as I wrote in my WIP Wednesday Hospital post (please clap), I am taking a break from the textfic so that I can focus on the festive challenges. And since I have nothing for the Klaine Advent and I cannot share what I wrote for the Klaine Secret Santa... nothing to show.

But then yesterday I couldn’t get rid of the COC longing, especially after seeing everyone’s contribution, so I started There’s nothing ironic about show choir, a (hopefully) cracky and silly fic where Simon defeats the Humdrum at eleven years old, so the remaining time at Watford is all about, you guessed it, glee club! Rivaling glee clubs! Rivaling glee clubs with Simon and Baz being part of different ones! This is from the chapter that I’ll post later today:

Simon Salisbury, formerly known as Simon Snow, the Chosen One, the Saviour of the Magickal World and all that jazz. Now he’s best known as the leading soloist of Rutaceae. And as being the lost heir of the Salisbury family, but ugh, that is old news by now.

Simon Salisbury, the boy I’ve been hopelessly in love with since I was 15.

No one knows about this.

People know that I am gay – being in choir made it easier to say – but no one needs to know I am gay for Simon Salisbury, the lead of the rivalling show choir.
