Isn't it interesting
How you can be born of ice,
Grow up so cold and isolated,
Then one day someone comes along
And just.. lights a flame?
And perhaps you shouldn't,
But you want to find out
If maybe you are more,
If there might be anything under all this snow
So despite beginning to melt,
With no promise of anything else,
You still reach out to touch it,
You still allow that flame to offer their warmth

Ngl, I feel like there’s not enough TNBA Scarecrow content in the world, do you have any headcanons about being in a romantic relationship with him? :3
TNBA Scarecrow Romance Headcanons
He loves poetry, that darker the better. And of course, he'll read it to you under candlelight
Prefers hugs over kisses, but would give affections in any way you like
He really likes tall partners, someone who stands up dauntingly next to him
Crane would love if if someone gifted him a new walking stick (great anniversary present)
Really likes to sing, from singing while working or in the shower, he has a soft low tone of voice. Would definitely sing for his partner
Not very romantic in the cliche sense, would probably get you a taxidermy skull instead of chocolates for valentines!

Today my therapist introduced me to a concept surrounding disability that she called "hLep".
Which is when you - in this case, you are a disabled person - ask someone for help ("I can't drink almond milk so can you get me some whole milk?", or "Please call Donna and ask her to pick up the car for me."), and they say yes, and then they do something that is not what you asked for but is what they think you should have asked for ("I know you said you wanted whole, but I got you skim milk because it's better for you!", "I didn't want to ruin Donna's day by asking her that, so I spent your money on an expensive towing service!") And then if you get annoyed at them for ignoring what you actually asked for - and often it has already happened repeatedly - they get angry because they "were just helping you! You should be grateful!!"
And my therapist pointed out that this is not "help", it's "hLep".
Sure, it looks like help; it kind of sounds like help too; and if it was adjusted just a little bit, it could be help. But it's not help. It's hLep.
At its best, it is patronizing and makes a person feel unvalued and un-listened-to. Always, it reinforces the false idea that disabled people can't be trusted with our own care. And at its worst, it results in disabled people losing our freedom and control over our lives, and also being unable to actually access what we need to survive.
So please, when a disabled person asks you for help on something, don't be a hLeper, be a helper! In other words: they know better than you what they need, and the best way you can honor the trust they've put in you is to believe that!
Also, I want to be very clear that the "getting angry at a disabled person's attempts to point out harmful behavior" part of this makes the whole thing WAY worse. Like it'd be one thing if my roommate bought me some passive-aggressive skim milk, but then they heard what I had to say, and they apologized and did better in the future - our relationship could bounce back from that. But it is very much another thing to have a crying shouting match with someone who is furious at you for saying something they did was ableist. Like, Christ, Jessica, remind me to never ask for your support ever again! You make me feel like if I asked you to call 911, you'd order a pizza because you know I'll feel better once I eat something!!
Edit: crediting my therapist by name with her permission - this term was coined by Nahime Aguirre Mtanous!
Edit again: I made an optional follow-up to this post after seeing the responses. Might help somebody. CW for me frankly talking about how dangerous hLep really is.

Sooo I've been obsessed with this au for a few days now and I thought.. why not use my abilities for evil
These are the designs from the tf2 x Steven Universe au by @lenny-link drawn in Steven Universe's art style! Or my best attempt at it lol.
I think the best looking ones are spy, heavy and soldier :]
Close ups↓
Also here's just the background; it's the bg from the tf2 lineup as a SU background, I'm really proud of how it looks hsjdjd
I also HAD to draw Andalusite by @gracefireheart cus good god he has taken over my entire heart. He's truly everything. The myth the legend the icon the moment. Happy pride month.
I like giving him a receding hairline cus. medic(has hair) + heavy(bald) = less hair. mathematics. The first drawing is my puny amateurish attempt at Rebecca Sugar's beautiful doodle art style. (I think I nailed the face and hair tho hehe)
(Your drawings are what introduced me to this au, I love them sm- I really hope you'll like this!!) (p.s; sorry for giving him a boob window. I wasn't strong enough.)
Aaaand my own design for a medic and scout fusion, Tourmaline! They only really form him when they both feel like wreaking havoc. he's impulsive, inattentive, hyperactive, he has no self preservation, and he's low-key dumb. When his senses kick in is usually when they unfuse. He can't see for shit and has to constantly remind himself to put on his glasses
(scout and medic shitty lil bratty kid + uncle who enables them dynamic truthers rise up)
(I had so many ideas for things I wanted to post so I thought I'd just put it all in one place gsjdjd, I hope people won't mind :'] )

I just gained a bit of weight, which I'm glad about but I got my first stretch marks, and I didn't know they first appear red so I thought I was going to die because I'm stupid and dramaic af
sooooo can I have a jon with an s/o who has their first stretch marks?
Sure thing! Love this idea!!
I think he'd really like your stretch marks honestly
like the cliche, "tiger stripes" or maybe he'd come up with something like "Fear Toxin chemical burns"
Would totally want to stroke and kiss them
Would listen to you if you needed to talk about it or vent
Absolutely would tickle you there to make you smile
