#bumpy is here

ready to cause some chaos...?

Introducing the "Pet the Tortoise" Litmus Test:

If your show has time to let a character just sit and pet a tortoise for a scene--no matter how brief--it's a Good Show and you're well-paced. It's just a brief moment of pleasant comfort, it doesn't have to move the plot forward or provide crucial exposition, but it shows that you have both some time to spare in the story and you're letting your characters be Happy for a minute.

*sigh*

Sorry folks- no update this week. Things at the day-job have gotten.... busy. Like, 60+ hour work weeks busy. -_- I'm kind of dying.

The next page is *almost* done, but I have had so little energy between 11 hour shifts that it's just not happening this week. I need to do some hard thinking about the update schedule on this, especially if my job keeps doing.... this.

I feel like Arnold from the Magic School Bus begging for a fully normal day in this fandom

No, not allowed.

It's been how long? Do you really think we're going to start having normal days NOW???

[greentea-and-honey]

tabula rasa

It's been almost thirty years since Shifty crawled out of the lab like a zombie rising from the grave, since Stanford Pines fell beyond their reach. Thirty years of almost nightly work on a portal that refused to obey their and Stan's commands, no matter what they did. Thirty years since the start of the Mystery Shack and Shifty's alter ego, the unlikeable co-manager of said Shack. Hope is starting to wear thin, and frustration is running high.

But when two twins begin to stumble upon the mysteries of the town, there might be something left to find after, be they solutions or secrets. Secrets that might as easily destroy Shifty as they could save them.

Okay so, my brain wouldn't stop braining and now here we are.

This plays in the universe of The Bumpy Road Home (see tags) and was originally meant to be a Tumblr post with a few hundred words max, but my mind had other ideas...

Anyhow-

Momma Carmen is too precious to keep hidden any longer, so I wanted to give a bit of a "preview" of what you can expect from her further down the line, as well as offer a first taste of the overall mood we'll probs be working with later on.

Enjoy! <3

And also:

Hope y'all had a fantastic start to 2025! 🥂

it sounds so bad for them I’m screaming 😂

Hey Nonnie

I’m just cackling - especially at the thought that they���re probably over on their side of tumblr claiming it means all good things for their ship and their character that Tim clearly doesn’t care about. It’ll be fun to see what delusions they manage to spin from this - my guess is they’ll ignore Oliver’s actual quote and go with the random wild speculation the article writer created!

it really is ana and Marisol for a man! Which I’m very happy about - because treating a male li in the same way as female ones have been treated in the past is a good thing - it means some semblance of equality on the treatment front (Taylor only got treated differently because of circumstances and bt2.0 is probably closer to how things would’ve gone for bt1.0 if the show had been able to do what it wanted to!)

And thus, an unshakeable bond was born.

I have to take the bus pretty often because the place I study at is pretty far from where I live and I always feel extreme dread sitting for hours in there waah,, thankie so much for this I shall always think of binah beside me in the bus from now on when I travel,,

Would love more modern au binah stuff, slice-of-life like! Its very comforting hehe.

Binah waits for you, on the days she doesn't have to board. in the sun, rain, or snow. she knows exactly when your bus will arrive. or, should arrive. there was no one who despised tardiness more than you and she, yet your transportation was frequently plagued by it. no matter. she waits as long as needed. ten, twenty, forty minutes- she's patient. it's something she's always had a talent for. her eyes flick to the clock perched upon her desk, quietly tapping her fingers. fifteen minutes. precisely the amount of time she needs to walk to the bus stop. ah, how tempting it is, to leave earlier. to take her time, meandering, immersing herself in thoughts and memories of you, you, all you

it's raining, again. Binah opens her umbrella with an easy flick, an elegant specter of darkness through the haze. late, again- and who to blame? perhaps traffic, or construction. or a particularly boorish driver. her dark eyes narrow amidst the rain, bright beams of light illuminating the drops first before the rest of a bus comes into view. not the correct number. not yours. again, and again, and again. nearly an hour late, yet still she waits. her shoulders straighten as familiar headlamps finally reveal a long-awaited number, turning towards the door, umbrella balanced neatly against her shoulder and arms open to mimic the doors. you leap into her embrace and let out a cry of relief, Binah catching you with a quiet chuckle and smoothing a hand over your hair

"Welcome home, birdie."

now in my professional opinion older ben with long hair is actually a great idea just not executed very well. shaggy rogers ben is good for laughs but that’s about it. give me rock climber vegan activist ben that lives in a van and only drinks monster.

Lover: You are so full of love and light; you value the people around you more than anything. I hope you find what you're looking for. I hope you find the right people at the right time and that your world is full of love; I hope your love is returned to you, properly, and that you don't ever get too hurt (because you're prone to it, aren't you?). You deserve that, you deserve the world. I wish you the best. Also, I'm serious, read the last lines of the minecraft end poem if you haven't, I think you'll like it.

Villain: I know some of them pity you. They think you must be exhausted carrying around that much resentment, that much anger. I know what you did, though, what it must have taken to get here. You had no fall from grace; you walked into the pit, eyes open, feet planted firmly on the staircase. And so be it. It's an effective lifestyle, if you're willing to commit to it. I'm sure you'll get where you're going. And then they'll see, they'll all see--because that's what's important, isn't it?

Hero: The hero in a relative sense, anyhow. You have your moments of weakness, but you're the best one for the job. Or the only one that wants it. Golden child, high aptitude, natural leader, whatever it may be--you've grown used to being favored, to being the best. You walk a fine line and you'll lose yourself to insanity if you aren't careful. You know that, though. It began to dawn on you a long time ago what you've gotten yourself into.

Ghost: You seem to think you're the villain. I don't think that you are. I don't know why you'd want to be, either. There is always love and light if you look for it and I think you would enjoy that, if you would let yourself be a part of that world instead of haunting it from beyond the glass. It really isn't much fun to be a villain, but I think you know that. It's easier, sure, than trying to be a good, happy person, but it isn't as much fun. The cool aesthetics only make up for so much.

Starlet: Deeply, you understand beauty--what it is to possess it, to surround yourself in it, to be consumed by it. It's better, isn't it? To create your own world full of lights and glamour than to live in reality with the rest of us? It's like living in a movie. You win, by the way. This is your movie, you're our star. Be careful, though, getting too far from reality. It gets more and more difficult to come back, and you've got to, at some point.

These days, my mind's obsessed with Garrett referring to MC as "little lady".

Also because she hates it.

And he very much enjoys that.

And Kate's amused ofc but also kinda like "ayo" cause if anyone's allowed to bully the hooman, it's her and-

I just-

(Read as: Their combined clown-energy is off the charts and I wanna let it loose on MC so badly.)
