If you had the power to write a storyline for one DC hero and one DC villian, who would it be and why? - 🌻

Imma be excluding Jason for this one bc I decided he's an antihero and I have way too much to say about my gum drop.

Hero definitely Yara Flor, I feel like having someone who's brazilian write her would solve a lot of issues I have with her character and how brazilian folklore is portrayed, I also know a bunch of indigenous creators from my community and know they would be down for it.

Villain Punchline, there's so much to do with her character and I feel like having her being a Red Hood antagonist/villain would be a great way to not drown her in-between Batman's rogue gallery, the idea of someone so obsessed with Joker having his "biggest victim" as her opponent is delicious.

thank you for the ask 🌻 !!

Yara😢 what's next Ama? Are we not able to have a maternal figure in our life? Curse?!

I'm thinking about the other female characters who might offer maternal wisdom and the only one I can think of is the healer who helps you after the fainting spell/Atses' Heart incident 👀😅 So I suppose not. But I mean, if you're fine with politically motivated and possibly stab-you-in-the-back maternal figures, there's always Sovereign Amera and Princess Lamahu 😆

Made a post about my 3 things I want to see with every Wonder Woman adaptation, despite needing to do some catching up myself. Related, do you have a link to a Wonder Woman reading list?

https://at.tumblr.com/paigeoforacle/1-keep-fights-to-a-minimum/k7nbubhe1qws

Nice list!

As for my Wonder Woman recs list....technically, yes. I made a Wonder Woman starter recs list way back in 2017 right after the movie came out. However, it's outdated, I've changed my opinion on some of the things I said there as I've read more Wonder Woman comics, and it also fails to include several good comics. So here's my current Wonder Woman starter recs list:

Starter comics: These are great comics to read if you're new to Wonder Woman comics or only have a passing familiarity with her:

Wonder Woman: Year One, by Greg Rucka

Wonder Woman (1987) #1-62, by George Perez

Wonder Woman: The Hiketeia, by Greg Rucka

JLA: League of One, by Christopher Moeller

The Legend of Wonder Woman, by Ray Dillion and Renee De Liz

Wonder Woman: Historia, by Kelly Sue DeConnick

Wonder Woman (1987) #170, by Phil Jimenez (the Diana-Lois 'Day in the Life' issue)

"Generations" from Sensation Comics Featuring Wonder Woman, by Michael Jelenic (Issue #12 digitally, Issue #7 print)

Wonder Woman: Our Worlds At War, by Phil Jimenez (warning: this oneshot ties into the "Our Worlds at War" event, so the frame story will probably be confusing, but the majority of the story is a solid retelling of the collective Amazonian history up to that point)

Second-level comics: read these once you have a baseline familarity with Diana and her supporting cast:

Wonder Woman by Phil Jimenez, including Paradise Lost/Paradise Found (which I don't think are in the current Jimenez omnibus)

Wonder Woman by Greg Rucka (his first run on the title), with a particular call-out for the Medusa arc

Wonder Woman: The Circle and Ends of the Earth, by Gail Simone

Wonder Woman Rebirth (2016), by Greg Rucka (Rucka's second run; everything except Year One fits here)

Wonder Woman: The Twelve Labors (WW 1942 #212-222), by Len Wein and assorted other writers

Wonder Woman/Justice League Dark: The Witching Hour, by James Tynion IV

Wonder Woman: Lords and Liars by Mariko Tamaki

All of the comics on both lists are great; I have no hesitation recommending any of them. However, I will give a blanket warning for sexual assault in the Amazons' backstory, particularly during the seminal Perez run (which is very dated in how it handles the topic, unfortunately), and put a general note that while I can't think of anything outright offensive, various social issues are not always handled with grace (especially in the older runs).

Comics featuring the Wonderfam supporting cast:

Tales of the Titans (2023) #3, by Steve Orlando* (for Donna)

New Teen Titans: Who is Donna Troy?, by Marv Wolfman*

Titans (1999), by Devin Grayson (for Donna)*

The Return of Donna Troy, by Phil Jimenez (collected in The Death and Return of Donna Troy)*

Titans (2023), by Tom Taylor (for Donna)

Wonder Woman: Lifelines (WW 1987 #105-108) and WW #109-113, by John Byrne (Cassie Sandsmark's introduction)

Young Justice (1998), by Peter David (for Cassie)*

Nubia and the Amazons, by Stephanie Williams and Vita Ayala*

Nubia: Queen of the Amazons, by Stephanie Williams and Vita Ayala*

Wonder Woman: The Contest (WW 1987 #0 and #90-100), by William Messner-Loebs (for Artemis of Bana-Mighdall)

Artemis: Requiem, by William Messner-Loebs (Note: this is not actually recommended reading. It's utterly cursed and I wouldn't put it on here if it wasn't absolutely necessary to understand how Artemis isn't dead after "The Contest." Read everything else on this list before you read this mini)

Wonder Woman: Gods of Gotham (WW 1987 #164-167), by Phil Jimenez*

Red Hood and the Outlaws Rebirth (2016) #1-24, by Scott Lobdell (for post-Flashpoint!Artemis, who's basically a different character)

Future State: Wonder Woman, by Joelle Jones (Yara Flor)

Wonder Girl (2021), by Joelle Jones (for Yara) (Note: this run is "just okay" and I'm reccing it with several reservations. However, it's also Yara's most prominent comic to date)

I've starred the ones on this list that I actually recommend as "good comics to read" and not just "decent starter comics for the character." Warning for depictions of sexual assault, bad art if you're looking at a pre-2000s comic, and being forced to engage with Scott Lobdell and William Messner-Loebs' writing.

I also recommend DC Bombshells by Marguerite Bennett; it's an Elseworlds comic set in WWII that co-stars Diana and it's delightful. There's certainly others that are solid reading, but I think this is a solid starter list if you want to understand Wonder Woman and how she should be written.

Hi, Here I am to ask

6 and 12 for the sillies (Ved and clement because they are the only ones I know)

SO, I also leave 5 and 11 for any skykid that you really feel like talking about and introducing to curious people like me

6. How does your skykid feel about the Elders?

Ved is a Herald, a people that were Megabird's first attempt at cleansing the corruption on the world and restoring the balance between Light and Darkness. In general Heralds didn't hate the Elders and Ancestors, but they didn't view the Elders positively and thought of them as rather foolish and/or selfish. The one who raised Ved had a kinder outlook on them, so Ved sees them as authority who made big mistakes and are paying the price for it. Not the most positive, but not entirely negative either. They don't really interact with any of the Elders aside from Tsadi on occasion and Lamed (since they lived and work in Vault). They were the ones who let Ved into the Vault where they stayed for thousands of years. Ved respects Lamed for looking after them and because they're their boss. Ved doesn't really go into the Prairie, Forest, and Valley Temples and has no desire to meet with their Elders. Out of all the Elders, Daleth is the one they feel most sorry for.

Clement has a light core but he is not a Child of Light. He is a Witch, created by the God of Earth. Witches are a neutral third party between Light and Darkness. He doesn't really have much of an opinion on the Elders, and respects them in the way a diplomat would respect the leaders of a different nation.

12. Skykid’s feelings on dark creatures?

Ved has seen a variety of Dark Creatures that live in their native Darklands when they were young, and thinks they are rather interesting and beautiful animals. The "Dark Dragons/Krill" in this story are deeply changed Light Creatures. Ved feels pity towards them but understands that they are dangerous and will not hesitate to harm one if needed.

Clement was born after the division of the lands and has only seen smaller more harmless Dark Creatures that stayed in the Lightlands or are brought into the Witches Forest. He secretly thinks the small ones are kind of cute. When it comes to eating them, he gets overly vigilant about making sure they're safe for consumption.

5. How does your skykid feel towards the ancestors? Do they have a favorite? A least favorite?

Mei is a historian and an archivist and thinks the Ancestors are very interesting. Despite being spirits, many of the Ancestors live and work alongside Skyborn. To her they're almost like literal living memories, but regular people at the same time? A lot of the Ancestors remaining memories and stories have already been recorded as much as possible by the time she started working at the Vault, but there are always some small overlooked discoveries every few years. Mei's focus is on the era of the Heralds and always tries to consult the Ancestors on her research as the Heralds are all gone (Ved's identity as one is a secret). Her favorite is Wise Grandparent, who always rambles but looks out for the archivists

11. Skykid’s feelings on light creatures?

Yara loves animals, especially Light Creatures. She first tried applying to jobs that involved them: manta trainer, messenger (works with birds), etc, but it ended up that they would always play too much for a work setting so in the end she became a Guide assigned to Prairie instead

How about... random facts about ace and yara ♥

aksjdasdkjs Portada my beloveds <3 thank youuuu honestly I could talk about them endlessly

Yara will never, EVER admit this, but she found Ace attractive from the beginning. In an objective sense, or so she would insist. She did legitimately find him irritating as well, but he's a good-looking guy-- she can't really deny that the thought crossed her mind when she first saw his picture in the newspaper Whitebeard showed her about the young upstart pirate who turned down the Seven Warlords.

The Spade Pirates took bets all throughout the development of Ace and Yara's relationship. When they would officially get together, when they would share their first kiss, when they would have their first time together, when Ace would propose, when their first kid would be born... (Ace definitely knows about their little betting pool, Yara does not)

Sometimes Ace does stuff wrong on purpose so Yara will correct him. He gets attention and she gets to feel smart, so it's a win-win.

Yara uses Ace as her personal space heater when she gets cold. She doesn't tell him that's what she's doing, but he definitely notices she becomes uncharacteristically clingy whenever they're travelling through a winter island area. Ace doesn't mind. He gets even more cuddles, so he's actually thrilled XD

I saw a post once about how Ace tends to get along really well with other characters who have daddy issues, even if neither of them are aware of that fact. And when it comes to Yara... let's just say the daddy issues vibes she gave off were so powerful that he instantly developed the strongest case of sexual/romantic attraction he had ever felt LMAO

Seriously I don't know how Yara fought off developing a crush on him for so long LOL this girl has a will of steel (but even she couldn't resist his charm in the end). She knew what he was doing to her and she hated it.

Ace refers to the day that Yara told him she loved him (which led to them sharing their first kiss) as "the best day of [his] life".

Both of them had kissed people prior to each other, but neither had been in love before. Neither of them had ever expected to fall in love, either-- or, perhaps more accurately, that anyone could ever fall in love with them.

Sometimes their method of resolving disputes (e.g. what to have for dinner) is for both of them to call Kotatsu over and whoever Kotatsu chooses wins the dispute. Kotatsu hates being put in this predicament, though, and sometimes he runs away rather than having to choose between them.

Ace carries a copy of Yara's bounty poster around with him, like he does with Luffy's. His brother and his lover are two topics he can-- and will-- talk endlessly about.

I’ll give you some white dick 😏

[snow-blower]

You totally should do a hottest women list (you definitely have a thing for older men)

I can't explain it, older men are just hot. But woman you say?? Hmmm

1. Cersei Lannister

Evil women are hot, tell me otherwise.

2. Margaery Tyrell

Need I explain?

3. Catelyn Stark

Mommy? Sorry, mommy? Mommy, sorry?

4. Gilly

I fell in love with her the moment she came up on my screen.

5. Shae

Tyrion has good taste

6. Ellaria Sand

Dornish women as a whole are just hot af.

7. Melisandre

Dislike her character but by the gods I'd let her do whatever she wanted to me.

8. Yara Greyjoy

Yummy.

9. Brienne of Tarth

My knight in shining armour 🥰

10. Sansa Stark

Begin drooling at the mouth whenever I see her 😩

[teecupangel]

I have a great idea for where we could send Desmond next. We should send him to Yara (Far Cry 6). It’s tropical island where he could be a bartender and help out the rebels overthrow the dictator. He would love it there. What do you think?

Desmond would be in such a strange situation in this one. Yara would definitely not be welcoming to any foreigners, especially considering the current situation (unless we’re making this about Desmond getting reborn as a Yaran?).

He’d definitely be in everyone’s ‘watch list’, not just the government but even the rebels.

Desmond would probably either go full stealth mode and create a Brotherhood behind both the government and the rebels, serving as a third party to both the government and the rebels (although there’s an uneasy alliance with the rebels because of his Brotherhood’s secrecy) or he’s juggling two lives, one as a strange bartender who everyone has an eye on and as the secret mentor of a fledgling Brotherhood.

The second one is more risky but it does give the story the chance for Desmond to outsmart everyone by pretending to be just a normal ‘flirty’ bartender when, in reality, he’s been slowly making his own Brotherhood and setting up an intelligence network.

Gameplay-wise, Desmond could be the bartender who gives Dani daily quests to get materials or maybe even a new currency they can use for something else.

Desmond would act like a nice dude who can’t get out of Yara because, well, things are pretty tense at the moment so he’s making good with what he has.

In the shadows, there’s a secret organization that’s undermining the government, with its actions being pointed at the rebels.

And no one can find any connections between Desmond and the Brotherhood.

I hope Yara Katz lives a full life with Richard Macon and his 23.7 acres of loblolly pine

richard macon loves yara katz so bad that she barely has a choice at this point. that man is gonna build you a house and you ARE gonna like it (she loves it. she absolutely 100% loves it and him)

[dolxiba]

how does yara go about makin money?

dancing is one of her fave hobbies, and she likes darryl, so she spends a lot of time working at the club. she also works at the spa (max hand skill baby!!). giving handies is basically her full-time job, between happy endings and "private dances" and her confessor duties... ofc the monthly temple allowance helps too lol

[bruciemilf]

Now I can’t stop thinking about Jaime Yara and Jason all together 😭 I feel like Yara and Jason argue all the time and try to tone it down around Jaime but they don’t even realize that Jaime loves it and actively instigates their fights all the time just to see them get mad

Anon, you're my one true love.

Thing is, Jaime gets them to fight over the dumbest shit. Who's the best dinosaur? The book or the movie? Is it possible to survive the Purge with no weapons?

How long would you last locked up in a room with a conservative pastor? Best Barbie movie? Mario or Luigi? Are ghosts real? Is New Jersey just a simulation?

Yara constantly accuses Jason of mansplaining when she's losing, and Jason simply suplexes her on the bed. Yara's go to tactic guaranteed debate victories is to choke him with her thighs

Jaime's always having the time of his life. I think he took the designated damsel in distress role.

his way of helping them with conflict solving is paying Tim to kidnap him so they work together. They're all unhinged just on different settings

I am extremely late to the fandom I know and I haven't even finished game of thrones yet but I freaking love Theon Greyjoy so much...felt like this was the place to talk about it..... I saw his entire arc in the show and my God it's so painful to watch him flounder and make blunders but at the same time..... Why wouldn't he?

The scene when his father receives the box and letter from Ramsay and basically disowns him but Yara's expressions shift from shock to horror then to anger and she decides to go rescue him It made me so damn happy OMFG.

Also your blog is a LIFESAVER

Ahhhh! Hello and welcome @girlypop-desi !! So happy you have found Theon Greyjoy! Welcome to the exquisite agony of being obsessed with Theon lol. Oh and yes! Yara’s decision to rescue him gave me such life!

I need to get my act together (busy and got very distracted by House of the Dragon lol) but we are hopefully going to have a Theon event (both show and book canon) in September run off the @theonsource blog if you are interested!

So excited to talk more Theon with you and thank you so much for the ask 🦑❤️

[danelloevee-sky]

I'm hitting you with 5! I'm interested~

also 7 if you like ^^

5. Do you practice other styles/have you tried other styles in the past?

I don’t usually draw in other styles, but here’s a few I’ve done before

Warning for lots of eyes / scopophobia

The last one is a Philippine eagle design I did for a t-shirt printing project in class

7. Show us at least one picture you drew or sketched recently that you did not put on a public site.

Here’s an au where Ved stays with the Isle priests instead of in the Vault

And here’s a modern human au Yara where I was gonna make a graffiti wall but I only ever did a stylized writing of her name

Send me asks!
