Volatile Memory, by Seth Haddon

HAWK is a consciousness trapped inside a mask in the shape of a Hawk—or is she just code that thinks it was once alive?

Wylla is a scavenger in need of a payday. Selling HAWK might be her ticket to freedom, but can she justify the sale when the mask speaks back to her?

This is a sapphic tale of revenge and adventure out with Tordotcom July 22nd!

and an alternative version~

#seth haddon #volatile memory #wlw #its sci fi its sapphic its revenge its goood #its got very locked tomb vibes #specifically harrow the ninth book vibes #very good though #it builds on that #two consiousnesses inside one head thing #which is so cool!#my art #its if HER was sapphic #its if TLT was about a trans woman #i have only read some of it #but im very excited to read the whole thing

A little 15 min doodle but first post of the year has to be Bingqiu!

#ok its time to get mushy in the tags because I doubt anyone would read them too closely #I’ve had severe art block for YEARS before I got into danmei in 2024 #and it wasn’t that my skill was gone it’s just that I thought nothing I did was good enough #I started reading danmei around the summer of last year and I got SO INSPIRED #I dived into the fandom side of things (I haven’t been in a live fandom in years) and was so excited about all the art people were making #and writing! and music! and animatics!#everything was so bright and colorful and beautiful #and everyone had such cool designs for these book characters that I’d grown to love #so I took a chance and doodled a little Luo Binghe and posted him on here #and I was so taken aback by how welcoming and sweet the fandom was #it made me wanna keep taking chances and posting my art— because I think that’s one of the hardest things I’ve come to accept #that even if it’s not good enough for me #someone else may enjoy it #and ain’t it crazy that ive come to enjoy drawing again too #sure the interaction has been fun but it’s been even more fun experimenting with my style and experimenting with colors and rendering #and grayscale and angles #and composition and expressions #ahh!! art is so fun!! I forgot how fun it was!!#I had forgotten how much I loved to draw!!#and the fandom— so many ideas are exchanged and I’ve met some of the loveliest people thru the sv fandom!#tgcf too but they’re a little less chill lmao #anyways #I’ve set up a little spot in the fandom and I plan to keep at it here it’s very nice and cozy and funny and warm #huge thanks to everyone for being so kind and welcoming #and an even bigger thanks to anyone who’s interacted with my art #I still can’t wrap my head around the fact that someone took the time out of their day to like/repost these silly little doodles I post #incredible. ok bye for now :)#svsss #bingqiu #hoot art

So it's Kirk's birthday but Spock has to work so Bones shows up at the door in these skintight hoochie cowboy pants with a bottle of really strong illegal liquor and hands Kirk a little pouch and Kirk's first question is whether the pouch contains Klingon aphrodisiacs like that's a perfectly normal thing Bones sometimes brings over and I'm not supposed to ship McKirk?

#and then bones goes and does the most bisexual chair sprawl i have ever seen in my life #when kirk is done pouting about being older and needing glasses bones is going to give him his real present #bones is a bit older than kirk and he's about to remind him six ways to sunday that age is just a number #i just picture spock calling bones and saying “i have to go to space tonight can you please go show our guy a good time for his birthday?#also i got him a rare book from that antique place he likes”#and bones responds with “dammit spock you know he won't even be able to see the damn book because he needs glasses so bad #and besides i thought we had agreed on giving him a sandwich tonight”#and spock answers “i'm afraid it will just have to be an open-faced sandwich tonight doctor #but i promise to make it up to you both next time. have fun.#oh and if you wanted to bring some more of those klingon aphrodisiacs from last time i'm sure he'd be into it”#and bones grumbles something about being the backbone of this fucking polycule #but secretly he loves being needed and saving the day with both his medical experience (with the glasses) and his perfect dick #star trek twok #mckirk #mcspirk #bones mccoy #james t kirk

my Stephanie Brown hot take is that she should get mad bitches now that she's single in comics. Yes yes shipping BUT the one time she had sex she was punished by the narrative via teen pregnancy. I think she should be allowed to have as much sex as she wants with zero consequences. Could be a lot of sex, could be a little. Point is she should get to do it without getting narratively baby trapped this time. she should get them pregnant, actually.

#ramblings of a lunatic #dc comics #dc #stephanie brown #this is a joke post but it also. isn't #like. i understand that what I'm asking for is a very slippery slope especially in the hands of the average comic writers (hates women sm)#but consider that i think it would be neat if female characters in the batmythos had sex lives again...#babs was out here having cybersex with ted kord in the 90s! helena had sex! black canary had sex and was kinda a gotham chara back then!#cass is generally more interested in justice than in sex and i abide by that #(tho user @casscain-mainly has great meta diving into the portrayal of cass' sexuality! good read and was on the brain while typing this)#steph however? canonical sex haver and got done dirty for it #like. personally i prefer to imagine that steph having sex with dean was 100% her choice #idk man she just felt like it! she wanted to bone #and maybe there's other factors at play there- Dean is by all accounts deeply unpleasant as a person so no doubt-#-stephs chronic low self-esteem played into her choice of man here #but again i like to imagine that it was all sane and consensual (tho not safe which again. lots to ponder there-#-like ik dixon was NAWT thinking abt this at the time but Steph's mom is a nurse. a semi-absent nurse but a nurse nonetheless)#(i find it hard to believe that Steph didn't have a basic sex education. meaning it was either a freak accident she got pregnant-#-or a wildly ooc decision on her part. OR some kind of outside pressure put on her by someone/something)#(we'll never know bc dixon hates me personally)#BUT ANYWAY yeah Steph has some kind of canonical sex drive and is just. soundly punished for it #and then she's with Tim (Paragon of Male Virtue in Dixons eyes) so no sex whatsoever no no no ☝️#and she's never had a seriously considered love interest outside of Tim to ever consider having sex with #ALL THIS TO SAY. let Steph have sex again but without the narrative punishment in 2025 #if this is what it takes to get her back in bat books so be it #also she should get to hook up with some age appropriate fellow heroes. as like fun one offs #who's in her age range? blue beetle (jaime)? circuit breaker? assuming we're trying to make this canonical and (sigh) can't pull women #I'm blanking on men who aren't vaguely too old/young for steph or gay. or just awkward (i.e like. kon el. that'd just feel weird yknow?)#ANYWAY yeah.

crossing my fingers and wishing upon every star that chapter 10 finally brings us the tweel cards 🤞🤞

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #just because of the context and what i'm about to wildly go on about #twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland episode 7 part 9 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 part 9 spoilers #god i wish this turns out to be a spoiler #anyway #i think it's safe to assume at this point that the next story card will be one (or both??? 👀) of the twins #do i DARE hope #i mean chances are just as good it's gonna be jade wearing a big mushroom costume or something #but you know what i'll take that too #and as long as i'm sitting here at the corkboard for crack theories #i have noticed that vil and jamil's dreams both got their use out of their travel event backgrounds #like tapis rouge HAD to have been specifically timed to come out before vil's chapter so we would have some context for that #and look. we know who's coming up next.#so...is it possible that maybe...coral sea event is finally coming?!#are there fishboys on the horizon?!#i don't want to get my hopes up. but also i very much do #august schedule is gonna come out with two training camps and a master chef rerun and i'm gonna dissolve on the spot

[Important things must be said three times]

---

As it seems like the next animated season of Heaven Official's Blessing might be just around the corner, I wanted to give a little love to my favourite of Mo Xiang Tong Xiu's series- The Scum Villain's Self Saving System.

Lucky me got both book series from my brother for my bday and over Christmas and though I do love both, SVSSS got me creased. Shen Yuan just falling ass over backwards into an entirely different genre was just too good.

And whilst I'd fallen into some old comfort fandoms, it was also nice to tune out for a bit like I used to as a chronically reading teenager, and get lost in a good book.

#scumbag system #svsss #luo binghe #shen yuan #shen qingqiu #scum villian self saving system #mxtx #tragically only got one animated season #but the voice acting was PEAK #it also lends itself to AU fanfic REAL GOOD- some BANGERS out there #ren zha fanpai zijiu xitong #mickules #mick fnart #I will devour books

‘the black bastard of the wall’ moniker is the exact opposite of the ‘white wolf’ moniker and this perfectly highlights the irreconcilable differences between book Jon and show Jon

#‘white wolf’ highlights his stark heritage parallels him to robb and tries to align him with perfect moral goodness #‘the black bastard of the wall’ is only about jon. it has nothing to do with his stark heritage nor ghost. it’s only about jon #it’s literally white vs black #stark/winterfell/moral goodness vs bastard (targaryen bastard to be specific)/the wall/moral greyness and the duality of it all #he’s already a snow and he’s surrounded by white up north with a white direwolf so being the black bastard and dressing all in black #is perfect imagery of the duality theme in jon’s storyline #d&d rly wanted their jon to always stand in robb’s shadow 🙄#while book jon has an international reputation while still stuck at the wall #my boy is stuck in westerosi alaska and he’s got ppl across the sea yapping about him for pastime #that’s fame baby #asoiaf #a song of ice and fire #GOT critical #jon snow #book jon snow #and i wanna know what other monikers george plans to give jon #while i wouldn’t be that suprised if the ‘white wolf’ did come from george it’s the way it’s jon’s only moniker in GOT that pisses me off #‘the black bastard of the wall’ supremacy #the white wolf seems kinda lame in comparison but say jon gets it if his hair turns white like some theorize #if that happens then i’ll like it more cause it’ll be about jon!#like… the young wolf is about robb. not grey wind. the starks are compared to wolves and robb is a young king and he just so happens to have #a direwolf. in the show jon’s ‘white wolf’ moniker is honestly more about ghost than jon! and that’s ughhh #but robb had the wolf moniker first so it feels once again like the showrunners were placing jon in robb’s shadow #UGHHH I HATE THE SHOW AND HOW IT RUINED THE WAY SO MANY PPL VIEW THE CHARACTERS #let jon be the black bastard !!#his color was always black and the wall is his !!#put some respect on his name and his badass moniker #i don’t want to see anymore shit about the white wolf cause that’s only d&d’s shit invention at this point #valyrianscrolls

[ID: Panels from chapter 101 of the Natsume's Book of Friends manga. Natsume thanks Natori and Matoba for coming to rescue him and Nyanko-sensei. Natori's serious but unsurprised expression remains unchanged over three panels. Matoba's lips are slightly parted, and in the second panel he says, "Huh…?" /end ID]

the contrast in reactions between natori and matoba...matoba and his little taken aback "what the hell am i supposed to do with this bid for human connection" face that i hold so dear. idk what's going on with natori exactly but my guess is he's just. really scared for natsume. he must have been, to have gone to get matoba. natsume doesn't get natori's affectionately indulgent look until after the danger has passed. natori's gotta get his game face on.

#matoba gets a couple of affectionately indulgent looks from natori though. at least two #once when natori is telling natsume that matoba always liked cats (he's talking to natsume but looking at matoba)#and once when natori shows up to save matoba's ass and says 'i was trying to help actually'#WE GET IT. YOU CARE HIM.#natsume's book of friends #natsume yuujinchou #natori shuuichi #matoba seiji #my posts #homura cats arc #f #but i don't think 'game face' is quite right either...natori's game face looks more determined. eyebrows drawn down #this is just such a stoic face. i can't really figure out what he's thinking here #i actually pulled out these panels to talk about matoba but i got distracted by natori. and others before me have already made #some very good posts collecting instances of matoba reacting this way. i just couldn't remember if these panels were included

Sign that Dream gifts to Nightmare post-truce specifically to annoy him

#UTDR #UTMV #Truce au #The truce au is about a lot of things to me and one of them is Dream getting to be a little shit #He's been good and patient for so long he's earned it #Nightmare is going to hit him with this sign first and foremost #And then he'll keep it in his office behind some books #I will just always always love Dream finally getting to tease his brother over actually caring about people #And Nightmare having to huff and puff and #''I DO NOT CARE I AM MADE OF EVIL I HAVE NEVER FELT- what? Yes of course you can have a snack. Tell Dust I got those chips he likes they're #in the top dra- STOP LAUGHING. I WILL END THIS TRUCE RIGHT NOW''
