The Bingo Boys* of 2X80- the futuristic D&D and homebrew mashup of a world @samusthedude is DMing!

From left-to-right and top-to-bottom

Daniel's (no tumblr) Stone the Genasi (aka Jasper aka The Rock Dwayne Johnson)

@quaxorascal's Jax the Dwarf (aka Centurion aka "fucking CHUCK?")

My Pétra the Dwarf (aka [REDACTED] aka The Worst Warlock)

@subcorax's Vivian the Half-Elf (aka "oh good he's seventeen")

*(gender-neutral) Descriptions under cut! (Thank you iz!!)

[ID: four full-colour digital portraits of D&D characters, drawn in a style that is evocative of paintings. The first portrait is of Jasper Stone, an earth genasi man. Stone stands in front of a chain link fence at night, looking forebodingly at the viewer. He is wearing a dark grey jacket that covers his entire upper body, with a black hood over his head and a dark grey respirator mask over his mouth and nose. An automatic rifle is held to his back with a black cross-body strap. His short-cropped hair is black, and what little skin is visible is grey and subtly cracked like stone. His eyes are brown, including the sclera. A yellow-toned spotlight shines above Stone, illuminating him and the dust that floats around him.

The second portrait is of Jax, a dwarf man. Jax leans one arm against a wooden bar. The wall behind him has bottles and barrels of various alcohols on shelves. Jax is has brown hair with an undercut and a bun, light skin, bushy eyebrows, hazel eyes, slightly pointed ears, and a full beard, with a braid starting from his cheek and the whole beard bound together with two brass-coloured metal bands. He has lots of dark hair elsewhere on his body as well. He is wearing a black shirt under a blue flannel shirt with the sleeves rolled up, with the front of his shirts tucked into black denim pants; he is also wearing a dangly brass earring, as well as subtle blue eyeliner and black nail polish. Jax is cleaning a beer glass in his hands with a cloth, his chin raised to listen and watch around him.

The third portrait is of Pétra Carpenter, another dwarf. They have their arms folded on a table; the angle of the drawing is as if the viewer were sitting at the table next to them, and they are looking toward the viewer. They have long dark brown wavy hair worn loose down their back, bushy eyebrows, brown eyes, a round nose, slightly pointed ears, and a short beard. They also have dark body hair on their arms. They are wearing a black denim jacket with the sleeves ripped off, over an old white t-shirt, and fingerless gloves; they are also wearing a black stud earring and a grey trucker hat with text on the front that reads: "in dog years, I'm dead". Pétra grins at the viewer and flashes a peace sign over the bicep of their other arm. Warm light filters into the room from over their shoulder; meanwhile, a shadow in the rough shape of a person looms behind them where the light doesn't reach

The fourth and final portrait is of Vivian Renée, a skinny half-elf teenage boy. He is standing in front of a convenience store at night; a neon sign in the window says "open". He has unevenly-cut straight brown hair with a stark white streak, brown skin, thick eyebrows, green eyes, a long and straight nose, and pointy ears. He is wearing a white cropped jacket with orange trim and rolled-up sleeves, over a black 100 Gecs t-shirt. He is holding his phone close to his face with both hands, and looking at the viewer with an annoyed expression. /end ID]

Platonic Finney Blake x Will Byers

When he went to Hawkins

After the grabber incident, Terrance decided all the bad shit happening in Denver is getting to him so he decides that they should leave for a town in Indiana, almost across the country

Finney thought it wouldn’t be so bad since his father had been laying low on the alcohol since the whole grabber stuff

Finney wasn’t over the incident, he could still feel the electric wire in his hand flowing up and down

He could still hear the boy's whispers and after he got something from each single one of their bodies they could speak to him as if they were right in front of him 

Finney eventually got used to the boys that attached themselves to him, telling him test answers, interrupting class with loud bangs, getting things for him off tall shelves, and other abnormal things

Slowly Finney could see their outlines and soon the boys clearly and even other ghosts but they were very much faded since he had no connection to them but he could if  he made contact 

Finney had Griffin’s bike lock, Bily’s letterman  jacket, Vance’s vest, Bruce’s baseball cap, and Robin’s bandana and necklace

Finney had gotten emotionally connected to each one of these objects

Vance, Billy, and Griffin are the strongest of the ghosts and can do the most like moving objects (people too), speaking to others, messing with electronics, and manipulating emotions. The others struggle with doing it but still do it but once they run out of energy they don’t speak and do nothing but float around Finney

Robin can remember the most out of everyone and told them about themselves so they remember but over time he’s forgotten what his cat looked like the only thing he remembers is that he has a cat and not its name or anything 

Finney eventually made books for the Casper crew on themselves, about who they were specific details that they have forgotten and all he could find out from their families, he made an excuse that it was a memorial sort of thing. All the Casper crew had to do was ask and Finney would take it out and they could flip through it

Finney still plays baseball and actually even practices fighting and is helped by Robin and Vance, he even got a sandbag

He carries a knife and brass knuckles with him always because of the grabber and the feeling of safety that comes with them

Finney can’t handle sudden noises and touches, especially the sound of doors opening, the sound of a belt whipping, or glass breaking, and when someone grabs him suddenly, he goes into flight or fights and it's usually fight

Finney has scars from abuse and from home and from the kidnapping, he also has some from practicing with his knife as well as rope burn scar on his hands. In conclusion his hands are scarred and the opposite of soft

Finney naturally takes out his hand while in the kitchen and a mug or can falls in his hand because he needs it and one of the Casper crew obliges and just pushes over it

Finney had long accepted that he is not normal and he doesn’t mind it because he’s not alone even if he had a choice, he likes being able to ask for a cup of water and getting it without a second thought or when he has too much stuff in his hands and the door closes on its own, it's fine 

When he makes it to Hawkins he noticed how many ghosts there were and even sees one in the middle of the road wandering. It made him think that Hawkins was hiding something, much more than it was letting on

Finney had met a boy named Will Byers who kinda sat on his own so Finney decided to talk to him, Finney told him how he had just come from Colorado and was looking for someone to show him around

Will practically lit up and accepted immediately taking Finney by the hand, Robin whispered how friendly this guy was for just meeting, Griffin whispered at how the boy looked a bit sick, Billy did not say a word and only observed, Bruce noticed how skinny he was for a boy their age and wondered if this sickness was affecting him and if it was infectious, Vance didn’t comment on the boy and only said to Finney how he should try for the baseball team at the school painting to a flyer on the wall

Finney held Will’s hand and let go when he pointed at something subtly

After school Will invited Finney to his house to play a game and Finney asked what it was, he answered D&D and Finney hadn’t played so he asked Will to explain it. It took some time to explain how D&D isn’t a nerd game but really cool and how to play it. Finney said it sounded cool but asked if he played any sports. Will said no and asked if Finney played any sports which he said yes, he also said he played baseball and would probably join a team in Hawkins

Finney and Will walked together as they talked, finding out each other’s interests and disinterests, and Will scheduled a meet up for Wednesday after school where he’ll teach Finney how to play D&D and Finney would teach Will baseball on Thursday

Though they didn’t hang out too much they hang out sometimes after school, Finney found clicks in his baseball team and Will sometimes went to his games where he met Gwen who he didn’t expect to call him scrawny bowl cut but she did and Finney apologized profusely but Will just put it behind him since she is younger than him

When Will is at Finney’s house some stuff happens.

“Hey could you get me a glass of water?” Will was in the living room of Finney’s house and Finney was in the Kitchen at the moment getting snacks 

“Sure!” Will could see Finney since it was an open kitchen that let the living room look into the kitchen

Finney reached for a glass that was too tall for him but slowly the glass was pushed off and Finney caught it, “Thanks” Will didn’t believe his eyes as he saw the glass cup move on its own

“F-FINNEY YOU HAVE POWERS!?” Will immediately stood up as he stared at Finney

“No I’m just haunted by helpful ghosts” Finney put it plainly as if he was talking about taking out the trash

“WHAT DO YOU MEAN HAUTED!? YOU JUST MADE THE CUP FALL INTO YOUR HAND!” Will walked over with wide eyes and tried to rationalize what happened, was Finney an experiment like El?

“I know it's hard to believe but really I can just talk and see ghosts that’s all, I don’t have powers even though that would be cool sadly I don’t I have to rely on Casper the friendly ghosts to help me” Finney tried to downplay himself so Will would chill out

“Then you’re not an experimented kid with superpowers?” Will kinda chilled out as he asked calmly trying to understand

“Yes, I’m just some kid with Casper the friendly ghosts as friends…. even though it sounds crazy I can prove it if you would like?” Finney was willing to help Will understand and Will was down for

“Yes! I would love to!” Will was excited since this was kinda like magic and since the only “magic” he knew tried to kill him he wanted to know how Finney did it

Finney took a book from his bag and placed it on the floor in between him and Will, “Go to the one with your family” the book somewhat violently turned pages to a page with numerous pictures of a boy with long curly hair with others who looked similar 

At the top right of the page with big letters in marker had the name “Vance Hopper” and with small pen said “Pinball”

“Now go to your interests” Finney said as the pages flipped quickly to a page that had in blue marker  “Interests of Vance” Finney smiled as he closed the book taking it back in his hands

“What do you think? Interesting isn’t he? If you couldn’t tell his name is Vance” Finney smiled as he explained and Will looked in awe

“So that’s your ghost’s name, Vance?” Will was amazed but kinda concerned, if Finney had a ghost does that mean he is technically haunted?

“I said ghosts Will, there's more than one” Finney said in a cheeky tone 

Finney continued to instruct the ghosts to do things and they obliged until they got tired and Griffin even played ball in Finney and Will

Affordable Bathroom Renovation Ideas: Stylish Solutions for Every Budget in Eltham

Are you dreaming of a bathroom makeover but worried about the costs? Bathroom renovations can often seem daunting, especially when trying to stay within a budget. However, with a bit of creativity and strategic planning, you can achieve a stunning transformation without breaking the bank. Whether you're in Eltham or any other suburb, these affordable bathroom renovation ideas will help you create a stylish, functional space that suits your budget.

1. Plan Your Budget Wisely

Before diving into any renovation, it's crucial to set a realistic budget. Determine how much you're willing to spend and prioritize the changes that will have the most significant impact. For example, you might decide that updating the flooring and fixtures will give you the most bang for your buck. By planning ahead, you can allocate funds wisely and avoid any unexpected expenses.

2. Refresh with Paint

One of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to give your bathroom a new look is with a fresh coat of paint. Choose a light, neutral color to make the space feel larger and more inviting. If you're feeling adventurous, consider adding an accent wall with a bold color or patterned wallpaper. Remember to use moisture-resistant paint designed for bathrooms to prevent mold and mildew growth.

3. Upgrade Fixtures and Hardware

Swapping out old fixtures and hardware is a simple yet impactful change. Replacing faucets, showerheads, towel racks, and drawer pulls can instantly modernize your bathroom. Look for stylish, affordable options at your local hardware store or online. Brushed nickel, matte black, and brass finishes are popular choices that can add a touch of elegance without a hefty price tag.

4. Reimagine Your Storage Solutions

Clutter can make even the most beautiful bathrooms look chaotic. Reorganize your space with new storage solutions that are both functional and stylish. Consider installing floating shelves, wall-mounted cabinets, or a vanity with built-in storage. Baskets and decorative boxes can also help keep smaller items organized while adding texture and warmth to your bathroom.

5. Revamp Your Vanity

The vanity is often the focal point of the bathroom, and updating it can make a significant difference in the overall look and feel. If replacing your vanity isn't in the budget, consider painting the existing one and updating the hardware. Another cost-effective option is to replace the countertop with a more modern material, such as quartz or granite remnants, which can often be found at a discount.

6. Opt for Affordable Flooring Solutions

Flooring can be one of the more expensive aspects of a bathroom renovation, but there are budget-friendly alternatives. Vinyl and laminate flooring have come a long way in recent years and now offer a wide range of styles that mimic the look of wood or tile. These materials are not only affordable but also durable and water-resistant, making them ideal for bathrooms.

7. Refresh Your Shower or Tub Area

Upgrading your shower or tub area can make a huge impact on the overall look of your bathroom. Consider re-grouting tiles to give them a clean, fresh appearance. If your budget allows, you might opt for a new showerhead or a sleek glass door. For a more budget-friendly option, replace an old shower curtain with a new one in a stylish pattern or color.

8. Add Stylish Accessories

Sometimes, the smallest details can have the biggest impact. Adding new accessories such as a chic mirror, stylish soap dispenser, or fresh towels can elevate the look of your bathroom. Choose accessories that complement your new color scheme and fixtures. Plants, artwork, and decorative items can also add personality and warmth to your space.

9. Consider Energy-Efficient Upgrades

While energy-efficient upgrades might require an initial investment, they can save you money in the long run. Consider installing a low-flow toilet, water-saving showerhead, or LED lighting. Not only are these options better for the environment, but they can also reduce your utility bills over time.

10. Don’t Overlook the Lighting

Lighting plays a crucial role in creating the right ambiance in your bathroom. Consider replacing outdated light fixtures with modern, energy-efficient options. Layer your lighting with a combination of task lighting, such as vanity lights, and ambient lighting, like wall sconces or pendant lights. This will not only brighten your space but also add a touch of sophistication.

11. DIY Where You Can

If you're handy, consider taking on some of the renovation tasks yourself. Painting, installing shelves, or even re-grouting tiles are projects that can be done with a little bit of research and some elbow grease. By tackling these tasks on your own, you can save a significant amount on labor costs.

12. Shop Smart for Materials

When it comes to purchasing materials, shop around to find the best deals. Check out local hardware stores, online marketplaces, and even second-hand shops for discounted items. Sometimes, slightly damaged or discontinued products can be purchased at a fraction of the cost and still provide a high-end look.

Conclusion

Renovating your bathroom on a budget doesn't mean compromising on style or quality. With careful planning, smart shopping, and a bit of creativity, you can transform your bathroom into a beautiful and functional space. Whether you're updating a small powder room or a full master bath in Eltham, these affordable bathroom renovation ideas will help you achieve a stylish, budget-friendly makeover that you'll love for years to come.

Elevate Your Kitchen with Floating Shelves: A Guide to Stylish Storage

Floating shelves are more than just a trend—they're a timeless addition that can transform your kitchen into a space that's both stylish and functional. At WeDezine, we believe that the kitchen is the centerpiece of any home, and floating shelves can enhance its aesthetic while providing practical benefits. Whether you’re looking to optimize a compact kitchen or add a sophisticated touch to a spacious one, floating shelves offer endless possibilities.

1. Define Your Kitchen’s Style

The first step in incorporating floating shelves is to align them with your kitchen's overall design. Whether your style is minimalist, rustic, or modern, your shelves should seamlessly blend with the rest of the space. For a contemporary look, opt for sleek, glossy shelves with hidden brackets that add a refined, streamlined touch. If you prefer a rustic feel, wooden shelves with exposed hardware can infuse warmth and character, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere.

2. Select the Right Materials

The material of your floating shelves is crucial in determining both their appearance and functionality. Consider these popular options:

Wood: Wood is a versatile choice that works well in various styles. It can be stained or painted to match your cabinetry, or left natural to introduce an organic element to your kitchen.

Glass: Glass shelves create an open, airy feel and are perfect for displaying elegant dishware, glassware, or decorative items. They’re ideal for contemporary or modern kitchens where lightness and transparency are key.

Metal: Metal shelves, especially in finishes like stainless steel or brushed brass, add an industrial or chic edge to your kitchen. They’re durable and easy to maintain, making them perfect for high-traffic areas.

3. Maximize Space with Strategic Placement

Floating shelves are not just decorative—they’re also highly functional. In smaller kitchens, they can free up valuable counter space by providing additional storage for everyday items like dishes, spices, or cookbooks. Consider placing shelves in underutilized areas, such as above the sink or near the stove, to make the most of every inch of space.

In larger kitchens, floating shelves can serve as a statement feature. Arrange them in staggered or asymmetrical patterns to create a visually appealing display, drawing the eye to your most cherished items and adding depth to the room.

4. Balance Open and Closed Storage

To keep your kitchen looking organized and clutter-free, balance open shelving with closed cabinetry. Use floating shelves to showcase your most attractive items—like decorative plates, plants, or stylish kitchen accessories—while storing less visually appealing items in cabinets. This approach allows you to maintain a clean, streamlined look while still injecting personality into your kitchen.

5. Enhance with Lighting

Lighting can significantly elevate the impact of your floating shelves. Installing LED strip lights or puck lights underneath the shelves not only highlights the items on display but also creates a warm, inviting ambiance. This is particularly useful in kitchens with limited natural light or when you want to draw attention to specific areas.

6. Personalize Your Shelves

Your kitchen should be a reflection of your style and personality. Personalize your floating shelves by displaying items that are meaningful to you, such as vintage teacups, favorite cookbooks, or a collection of potted herbs. The versatility of floating shelves allows you to easily refresh your kitchen’s look by simply changing the items on display.

7. Consider Maintenance

While floating shelves offer aesthetic appeal, they also require regular upkeep to maintain their look. Choose materials that are easy to clean, and ensure that the shelves are securely installed to support the weight of your items. Regular dusting and occasional deep cleaning will keep your shelves looking their best.

Conclusion

Floating shelves are a stylish and practical addition to any kitchen, offering both storage solutions and decorative opportunities. Whether you’re looking to enhance a small kitchen or create a stunning feature in a larger space, floating shelves provide a versatile and elegant option. At WeDezine, we specialize in designing kitchens that are as functional as they are beautiful. If you’re considering floating shelves for your kitchen, our expert designers in Bangalore are here to help bring your vision to life.
