#but if it shows up then i guess it shows up lol

[captain-303]

I will be answering about Captain Torres, except for questions where he does not apply.

There is no such blorbo

Definitely Finn McMissile from Cars 2 because I used to think he was really cool. As for now? Well I still think he's really cool so yes!

Probably just before Torres get blown up inside the Alicorn, when he starts laughing manically , I just remember thinking that he was a really interesting character with a surprisingly complex motive and pretty sad story- especially when considering how far he's fallen from his original ideals

His dedication I guess, the quote "The two years that we fought at the bottom of the sea… I will not allow our perseverance to be desecrated!" sums that up pretty well. It is somewhat admirable I guess

His true motive - his desire to kill the maximum amount of people possible

"pls let me off your submarine Mr Torres"

I see a few people every now and then saying that the reason he wants to kill 1 million people is actually to save 10 million (like Torres himself says. No... he has ZERO regard for human life, at multiple points he shows how expendable he thinks every single person under his command is!

Probably an extrovert

Evil. Manipulative. Pirate!

HAHAHAHAHAHA no

yes (unreleased)

I will bring it up to friends every now and then, and I've explained his motives to my mother (she did not care)

hmmm. If he was written to actively discriminate against anyone I wouldn't like him

no lol

ship wars? well if a submarine technically a submersible ship... yes.

no :(

no D:

no

I guess my main three are Torres from Ace Combat, James Sunderland from Silent Hill, and Asuka from Evangelion. If anyone can think of a connecting trait between them three, let me know!

no, Torres is like 34% of my attention and Asuka and James have 33% each, so not a huge difference - but there is one

Live action Torres? one day maybe...

no. no way. I'd hate him. He's a mass murderer.

no :D

I would give him an eyepatch to make him look more like a pirate

Max0r's Incorrect Summary of Ace Combat 7, his version of Torres is really funny and goofy - but I prefer the original

no

The more Torres fans the better!

no(t yet)

no

yes! If Torres survived in the Alicorn at the bottom of the sea for 698 days I can like him for three more years!

important question, who do u think owns toys and which ones 👀

omgg lemme go down the list lol

yeonjun - don’t see him as a huge toy user, especially not on himself lol. but if u have toys he’d try to act sooo uninterested even tho it lowkey piques his interest. like he’d act so above it until u ask if he wants to try em out and he’s like Yes. Yes. God yes. lmfao idk if these count as toys but i could see him liking things for restrictive play, like cuffs or sumn just to watch you squirm around. he’d be sooo evil just watching you flail helplessly, grinning down at u, he’d be like omg ur right we should have tried this sooner!

soobin - this perv i just know he’s got all kinds of crazy toys he wants to try 😭😭 both on himself and u but mostly u just cause he has a thing for watching u take it. he’d show u some freaky ass tentacle dildo and expect u to be all in, you’re like WTF that won’t even fit and he goes manic like WE WILL MAKE IT!!! he just buys shit without telling u and whips it out one day like babeee i got something new for u ❤️❤️❤️ and he will make use of every toy he gets, he’s not stopping til u cum three times and u got tears down ur face!! he loves it so bad it’s actually a problem, your drawers are filling up with an embarrassing amount of sex toys

beomgyu - he just wants to torture u LMFOAOSJJS no but like i can see gyu being a vibe enthusiast. or wands omfg he’d be ruthless and mean and awful, leaving ur panties on just to watch you soak through and ruin them, pressing the wand closer to your cunt and laughing at how you cry. but when you get your revenge and tease his tip with a vibe, all of a sudden it’s i’m sorryyy i’m sorry i’ll never edge u again i swear!! the switch up is crazy and you know he’s lying so u just have ur fun and pay no mind to his bitching.

taehyun - i don’t see him as a toy user but i’ve always had this thought of making taehyun fuck a fleshlight while he tries to convince u to fuck him lol. i love dom!reader x dom!taehyun cause i think the dynamic is so funnn lol like both of you being too stubborn to back down, trying to make the other fold first. you’re pumping his cock with a fleshlight while he spews out the dirtiest things to get you to abandon the toy and fuck him. he prefers using his hands and tongue on you instead of toys, cause it gives him the satisfaction of knowing he did all this to you, and that he didn’t need some stupid toy like you do to get you begging for his cock.

huening kai - FACK i could see him using a fleshlight and sending vids of him fucking it to u 😵‍💫 he buys u toys too and encourages you to send vids to him too, cause he’s so sweet and thoughtful 😇 would use a dildo on u to prepare u for his dick cause he’d be too big for u at first.. it’s just a part of size training with him <3 he asks u one day to just let him watch u use a vibe and you’re kinda scandalized at first but he’s so convincing!! (if convincing means tormenting you with cries of PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, then yes!) so you give in and put on a little show for him, which he likes so much it almost concerns you. he’d like gifting you a little toy every now and then, coming to you like eekkkk guess what i saw in the store!! it’s so cute and pink, right?!! do you love it?!! do you wanna try it?!? right now?!?? 😇😇😇

Some mid-morning thoughts on WoT 3x01-3x03

(I woke up to eat and take my morning meds but will try to sleep again afterwards if I can manage it - I took a half-day off work so that I can sleep in, so we'll see how that goes lol!)

Let's see what else my brain can think of while it has a little more sleep in the bank. Still have not rewatched the episodes yet. Spoilers through The Gathering Storm (if you know, you know).

I am not going to try to split these up into episodes, because I see that even last night, I totally failed at that (Rahvin's reveal is in the opening of 3x03, not at the end of 3x02, I think). We're not even trying until I do individual rewatches of the episodes.

I am feeling more charitable about Randgwene not being broken up yet, because there really wasn't any time for a break-up in those episodes, they were packed. Does it startle me every time they sleep in the same general area of each other and touch each other's faces? Also yes.

It's interesting (to me) that these romances are the place where I'm having the hardest time separating book expectations from show expectations -- Randlayne & Avirand's interactions thrill me because of how book!accurate the vibes are; Avilayne hooking up so quickly is a mild disappointment because of how unlike their book relationship it feels (I did want canon Avilayne but I wanted a slowburn and for them to really intimately get to know each other first); Randgwene still being together feels like I am suffering through an eternity of slow torment (slight exaggeration).

It's interesting to me because I've had such an easy time shaking off other adaptations that were made, so this one aspect having a harder time to shake really does stand out to me. Is it due to my invest in the polycule -- both of the changes that I'm having a difficult time with directly impact the vibes and timing of the polycule, so maybe it's that. idk.

I was thrilled at our tiny glimpse of Ryma, safe (?) in the White Tower. She made it out! <3

I love how much of an Elayne-focus we got in ep2! Not quite as extensive as the Nynaeve & Egwene focuses in their respective s2 episodes but she was a huge huge part of 3x02 and I feel like we learned so much about her and her family.

Starting with! The politics of Andor being more cutthroat immediately reminded me of how the nobility of Seanchan and the Imperial family operate. I gasped when she ordered the throats cut of all the noble heads of house but definitely understood why (politically) -- the men can't inherit the Lion Throne. Ouch that all three of those ladies had male family members ready to stab them in the back to save their own lives. I'm guessing we're also setting up a contrast to how Elayne will go about her own Succession.

Elaida crowning Morgase -- I feel like we can tick off that box on the "unexpected ship vibes" bingo!

I really liked the way they protrayed the family dynamic of the Trakands (and they did introduce Galad "of House Trakand", I'm pretty sure, so he is at least officially a Trakand in the eyes of Andor) and it was so insidious how perfectly Gaebril felt like he fit right in with them.

But yes: Galad -- the overprotective big brother who follows the rules too hard and stifles Elayne. Gaywn -- the fun middle brother that Elayne is more willing to trust because he's more relaxed and not always making her follow the rules. And Elayne -- our sheltered baby princess who is overcompensating by being a party girl now that she's had a taste of freedom.

The show also continues to make sure we know that none of these kids are virgins, lol.

Giving Sheriam's plot of Verin re: the Gray Man! Oh, I see what the show did there! They've definitely made Verin Suspicious. And Elayne and Nynaeve are duly suspicious of them. And everyone else.

And our kiddos did, once again, sneak out in the dead of night. And Siuan doesn't even have a clue where they really went, because Amico and Joiya are both offering other locations, on account of being lying liars who lie, and Elayne and Nynaeve don't feel like they can trust anyone in the Tower! So she will genuinely not have any answers to give Galad and Gawyn (and Galad has clearly already been reading some iffy material when it comes to Aes Sedai. I can't remember what the Whitecloaks special textbook is. But probably that). But Siuan also very much is the person who set them on their course, so she does bear responsibility as their 'leader' too.

I like that Min & Mat still haven't fully settled their issues and now she's had Yet Another traumatic viewing about her (putting the hanging from s2 into her little intro video was a secret sneak peek!). There's a lot of interesting meat going on in that to unpack. Oh! We definitely get our Min x Elaida space on the Unexpected Ship Vibes Bingo! That scene they had together was fantastic! Elaida in general was great but I really want a rewatch before I pick out anything in particular.

Mat's storyline continues to be the one that throws me the most curveballs, as always! They held back both the duel and the doorway longer than I had expected. I'm guessing there's a doorway in Tanchico for Mat to go through, given Min's viewing. I really enjoyed his storyline throughout the three episodes. After s2 had his emotional focus much more on Rand, it does make sense to branch out and put more weight on his relationships with some of the other Emond's Fielders (Nynaeve here, but also Perrin doing his best to try to save Mat's family).

I do find it interesting that the show hasn't made any space for Mat & Egwene to interact, especially after Egwene went on the offensive in the 'make up talk' with Rand in 1x07 about how she would TOTALLY die for Mat if need be. I mean. Maybe she would because she would die for any of them (much like Moiraine said she would have healed any of them to brush off Rand's thanks to her after she healed Mat) but they definitely are the least close out of all of the EF5. Which makes it even more interesting that Rand made fantasy!Egwene so fondly exasperated by Mat in his dream in 1x08. Rand really wishes that his bff and his girlfriend got along better.

Speaking of girlfriends!

Lanfear doing the duel tempting of Rand alongside the tormenting of Egwene really shows off both that she is very skilled in TAR and also shows us that however soft she pretends to be with Rand (willing to lie out before his feet if he says "rug", you might say. haha thrilled that particular petty bitchy line made it into the show), she is a horrible fucking person. And she's been doing this all along, it sounds like! Egwene dreams about Renna EVERY NIGHT!

It does look like we might still get our on-screen sister-wives relationship in the show, but with Bair-Rhuarc-Lian instead of Amys (for production reasons, I believe. Apparently Bair was cast first and then they hit their character limit? I don't recall the details). We'll know for certain when/if we go to Cold Rocks Hold.

Perrin's plotline feels so much like the books that I feel like I have little to say about it! I enjoyed it! I like that the apple orchard is his family's graveyard in general but that we are explaining away the absence of some actors (Tam, Abell... someone else?) by having them having safely spirited away the Aybaras to protect them from the Whitecloaks.

Very glad Faile was introduced in 3x03 and we aren't waiting until 3x05! I like their vibes already. I mean, I think I only really had an issue with them with a. the domestic violence in TSR (but we've already passed that point here) and b. the constant jealousy (we don't have Perrin's internal monologue, so we won't get this) and c. the silliest 'triangle' in the world with Berelain-Perrin-Faile (remains to be seen). Cut those things out and I find them very charming!

I find that the super-book accurate things, I don't have as much to say about!

Okay, I'm going to try to get some more sleep before I need to get ready for work!

Aftermath of a reveal gone wrong, that's all the context you get LOL

Read it here or read it on AO3

----

Danny couldn't believe it, who would have ever guessed! "You got everyone from Amity Park to come to the show?" he asked Ember.

"No, they did that all on their own." She seemed upset, jealous probably. Nearly a third of the crowd cheering for a back up guitarist rather than the star of the show would do that.

There was a knock at the door, followed by Jazz, Sam, and Tucker poking their heads in.

Danny grinned, "Guys!" He ran over to pull them into a hug as they slipped into the green room.

"Danny!" Tucker greeted, just as eager to hug back.

"Did you guys arrange this?"

"Eh, kinda," Sam answered. "A lot of the others were already keeping tabs on Ember and making plans to come to her spring break concert, your debut just made everyone wanna do it."

"We did help organize things once everyone decided to go," Jazz took over explaining. "Booking for groups was actually way easier than making everyone do it on their own and hope we could all match up."

"That includes a sick afterparty, you're all invited," Tucker said cheerfully.

"Everyone will want you to sign their merch," Sam added with a smirk.

"Well, if it's for the fans," Ember said with a sniff.

"I'm down," Danny said with a laugh, "just let me slip into something a little more comfortable." He let his transformation wash over him, leaving him with beating heart. He'd still have to wash off his stage makeup and put away all his accessories since they were all ecto, but the transformation meant that could wait until the morning. Very handy after a long day performing.

"Let's go!" Tucker pointed to the door. He, Sam, and Danny all slung arms over each other and started talking a mile a minute as they headed out of the green room and down the hall, despite talking on the phone nearly every day before this.

Out in the lobby were the rest of the Casper High class of 202X, the A-listers front and center.

"Danny?" Kwan asked with a furrowed brow.

"What's he doing here?" Paulina asked, clearly just as confused.

"Huh?" Danny asked, confused himself.

"You nerds said you were getting Phantom," Dash whined loudly, "so where is he? And why did you bring Fenturd?"

Danny didn't remember letting go of Sam and Tucker, he didn't remember rushing up to Dash, he didn't remember raising his fist. It was all done without conscious thought, one moment he was having fun with his friends, the next his fist was connecting with Dash's jaw. There were gasps around him, but Danny paid them no mind as he grabbed Dash's shirt to lift him up from where he sprawled out on the floor. "Don't call me that, don't ever call me that ever again!"

"Danny!" Jazz ran up and put an arm across Danny's chest, trying to herd him away. Danny let her, because she was his big sister and he would never willingly hurt her.

Tucker's dad and a few other adults ran over to check on Dash.

"Danny, let me see your hand, are you hurt?" Jazz gently picked up his still clenched fist, Danny immediately unclenched it and let her turn it this way and that, checking if he bruised his knuckles.

Danny never took his eyes off Dash.

Dash was sitting up now, staring at Danny in shock. "What just happened?"

"You said the wrong thing, obviously." Sam stepped in front of Danny, arms crossed as she glared at the bully.

Dash put a hand up to his face in disbelief. "I don't… how did… since when could wimpy little Fentina punch?"

"Danny, don't!"

Danny ignored Jazz, he ignored physics as he ran through his friends and the parents, carefully only becoming solid right at the second punch, this one right on Dash's nose. It gave a satisfying crunch. Dash howled.

"Augh!" One of the parents who had been checking Dash had ended up half in Danny when he stopped, she scrambled to get out of the way.

Danny grabbed Dash by the shirt and hauled him up, fist wound back for another punch. "Call me a Fenton one more time," Danny dared.

Dash swallowed thickly, but shook his head.

Danny relaxed his fist, "So you can learn."

"Okay Danny, that's enough. C'mon." Jazz Put a hand over Danny's, still fisted in Dash's shirt, and gently pushed it down. Danny let her, slowly lowering Dash back down to the floor. "Come here, baby brother, let's take a minute to calm down, okay?"

"Whud?" Dash asked, sitting up once Danny was pulled away.

"You haven't figured it out yet?" Val asked as she walked past Dash to go join Danny's friends. "I would've thought after everything that happened with those lunatics that it would be pretty obvious."

"Hey, Ember?" Tucker called. "There are a couple busses in the parking lot, the chaperones know where the party is. How about you go with them and we'll catch up in a little bit."

"Sure," Ember said with a smirk. "Baby-pop knows where Gus the bus is." She ruffled Danny's hair as she passed, "Good one, dipstick."

"I'm proud of you Danny," Jazz said softly, pulling Danny close.

It was weird being taller than her. "I punched Dash, twice."

"And you didn't crack his skull like an egg, you showed a lot of restraint. So I'm proud of you."

Danny couldn't help laughing at that, he was sure a year ago Jazz would be all about de-escalation and non-violent resistance. If things were different he was sure she'd be lecturing him right now. "I think I broke his nose," Danny murmured.

"Well he deserved it," Jazz replied.

"Dash is so stupid, everyone knows Jazz changed her name," Val said snidely.

"If he was bright he wouldn't have needed her to tutor him," Tucker said with a shake of his head.

"At least he won't be at the party," Sam said brightly. "With a broken nose he's going to spend the night at urgent care while we get to party."

"How about we go to the green room and do some breathing exercises and I'll tend to your fist, then we can go party. If you want, you don't have to."

"Breathing exercises, yeah. I'll see how I feel after that."

And after calming down and realizing that he did feel better after punching his childhood bully in the face (twice), Danny went to that afterparty and had a blast. The end. UwU

(Sorry, I didn't plan for it to get THAT angsty but when the angst wants to be written what can ya do?)

•°○ let the fireflies play ○°•

✨she couldn't sing for nothing and he couldn't dance for nothing can I make it any more obvious✨

Kwaziis parents (in my au, Misty Memories), Anira and Kenneth. They're in their party clothes lol Yes they have full character arcs and lore and no im not going to share their whole lives right now.

HOWEVER,I shall BRIEFLY describe them and how they met under the tag!!! <3 u don't have to read but yeh :> 😊

If yall have any questions about them or their personalities tho let me know in comments or ask box :>

Their story takes place from late 80s to early 90s btw,

Kenneth is clearly the second son of the Calicoed Jack and younger brother of Kingsley by about 2 or 3 years. Kenneth (also nicknamed "Kenny boy"or "Kenny kit" as a child) is... Well to be honest hes not very good at being a pirate, especially not like his parents. An anxious and overly cautious one.

He couldn't properly swing a sword without closing his eyes for fear of injuring himself, he was clumsy (even by non feline standards-), and was afraid of spiders. (And heights... and loud noises... and that one Pelican that tried to eat him when he was a kitten- and also-)

However, he was still raised a pirate and had the soul of one, shanty songs and tales spread through the ocean about its depths and tragic battles- He was also very good at cooking-

As a result of his mothers... tragically lost battle with illness, (and witness of his fathers struggles with infection after losing his eye and leg)hes also extremely paranoid about disease and injury...

(his father loved him dearly but hadn't realized that kenneth had low self esteem for... not living up to him, his mother, and his brother... CJ was a young and inexperienced father and also tried his best to teach kenneth- you know like fun survival challenges between him and his brother and how to fight- he uh.. he was good at surviving on an island at least? It was very safe of course, they weren't actually stranded, but it was "just in case" and also "the pirate way" and whatnot.

CJ (calico jack) did tease him a bit about "still feeling like a wee kit" in regards to his pirate failures, it wasn't ever in mean spirit, more fondness over his sons excitement in sharing the shanties he wrote himself! (Shanties cj would later use to stay sane in the amazon...) but kenneth still felt hurt by those comments though he never showed it... laughing along🥺 <:< )

anyways since kenneth didn't want to be a self proclaimed dead weight and was so concerned about injury and disease (bot as easy to get hospital treatment as a pirate yk?) Kingsley advised him to get real schooling- schooling that would give him credibility for a fake identity so he could become their crews official medic someday. Something incredibly valueable and needed.

Thats how he ended up spending half the year at a "flexibility school" in Japan meant to accommodate children who couldn't stay at school for the full year. Whether it was due to international travel, long term illness, apprenticeships (the salty spirit was usually undercover as a "transportation vessel" for the "Sarah Sails" company which was just a fake company made by their clan the Split Tail), and ofc children hopping between foster families- because of the flexible needs yk?

Like Anira.

Anira Kucing (name inspired by the kucing Malaysia cat breed) is, who would've guessed it, originally from Malaysia. Anira doesn't know this but her mother had fled from her home country due to the unfortunate circumstance of being a prime suspect for the death of her sister. Unfortunately, while her mother did manage to take a new identity in a new country, she became very ill from cancer when anira was very young and died <:( thus she was legally an orphan, and ended up attending the same school

Anira is ah, ahem, a... unique individual- grew up assuming her father had abandoned her and her mother- only to lose her mom while young and still be seen as a foreign stranger of Japan despite being raised there her whole life. She also had an interesting tendency to pickpocket everyone in sight :) because if she didn't have anyone to dote on her she might as well dote on herself! Yk with like.. stolen cash that the rude rich kids that whispered about her didn't even need anyways >:)

Anira thus became Very Talented at getting people to talk about themselves, and while that was a great way to distract people from their wallets,it was also a GREAT WAY to get fresh juicy gossip ✨ then she hears about this FOREIGN ENGLISH SPEAKING CAT GUY???

Needless to say lil wee kenneth was uh.. a very new lil guy and ofc she just hadddd to help him cuz she's so kind and great! Esp since he looked so lost and like a total dumdum. well what happened was she ran up to him after school, dragged him away to a random street as she rambled in broken English, and then said "watch this!!"

And proceeded to pickpocket three very mean looking older teens. Kenneth, who, understandably, was very freaked out by this tried to drag HER away from them- and then well... hes got broken japanese and well things escalated 😔

He got into a fight with the three older teens, or rather a "run way swat at with claws and TRY TO RUN AWAY SOME MORE because oh great im corned in an alley :) , he also tried to find anira so they could both run away but uh... she was gone...

He tried to escape by scrambling over the wall of the alley only when a small paw reached out to help- and thus they escaped together-

Later on when they caught their breaths on a rooftop, he tried his best to ask her *HEY WHAT THE HELL* as politely as he could. This tiny little menace grinned as wife as possible and showed him FIVE WHOLE WALLETS full of coins she stole! She thanked him and told him SHE was going to treat HIM to some icecream 🥰🥰🥰 and anyways kenneth immediatly fell in love. And you just know she ate up his cringey (cute) middleschool love poems too

Of course when he went to "do his sailing apprenticeship" well- of course our girlie mightve sorta followed him and stowed away and well mightve forcefully wormed her way into his entire family 🥰🥰🥰 honestly tho she had like two crack headcanons that kenneth was actually an alien spy since he was so bad at being a cat or a secret pirate because he just agreed with crime very casually and didn't realize how strict laws actually were. She DIDNT THINM HE WAS ACTUALLY PART OF A PIRATE CREW THOUGH-

Anira very much fell in love with the freedom of being a pirate, the culture and the family, and also the beliefs of the polynesian cultures they visited and adopted many of the beliefs as an honorary sister of sorts ig? Yeh :>

If you're wondering yes she did join their crew and became a navigator of the salty spirit! Very good at it too lol, and CJ loved her and doted on her like his own daughter,often sneaking her candies- Kingsley and she became ah, how shall we say- the siblings who have heinous prank wars either with eachother or on literally everyone else and can't be left alone together under any circumstances.

anira always loved kenneth for who he was entirely and kenneths entire bloodline is just a wee man who falls for a woman who commits crimes and he's no different. I'll have to post about calico jackand his wife maddie sometime

Anyways thats it lol, more details about them and their relationship and story will be shared later on hope you enjoyed lol

Enjoy this icecream as a reward for reading all of that ✨🍨✨

answering these for shits n gigs :3

1. we don't currently have any insys romantic relationships but mark & i (ster) are the "we knew each other in source and we're gonna be suuuuper annoying about it" duo. funnier when you realise we have a relatively small headcount (there's 9 of us that i'm aware of) so our brain was like "well, shit, this game show meant way too much to us during our trauma, so i'll pick... these two idiots"

2. see above regarding 'couple' but kian and connie are the unlikely duo. sunshine & black cat energy or whateva.

3. WEIRDLY ENOUGH. ALSO MARK AND I. we have very different energy. the same sense of humour, but different energy. extreme opposites on the introvert-extrovert scale; i would be hyped making plans with everyone we know and mark would just be like "what the fuck what if i front during that"

4. shiiit good question. vinnie, maybe? or the one syskid that we don't feel comfortable naming.

5. okay so. we live in a city. a really fucking big city (as far as big cities go in our country). most of us have adjusted well enough to this that we'd consider ourselves city folk by default. even mark, who has been lovingly described as a "slightly socially inept personified anxiety attack", fucks with the city we live in.

6. that being said, a lot of us yearn for The Countryside (trademark). when i say we live in a city, i mean we live in a city but we grew up in the part of that city that's mostly fields and farms. the alters that are known to have been around for a very long time - notably ezra, connie, and graham - are defo country folk.

7. probs vinnie with their crunkcore. crunkcore sucks. love you, vince.

8. MARK. i know i keep mentioning that kid's name but wtf is a "social alter but only in specific situations and also he is almost exclusively the alter that fronts for therapy and also he's like 3 addiction holders at once". mate, pick a struggle. love you, mark.

9. kian is finnish. everyone else is either british or straight up don't have a solid enough sense of their nationality so they say they're british

10. collectively all of us i guess. but kian especially is a little goth freak (lovingly). floris is somewhere between emo and punk but he's the host and he's the one that drags us to hardcore gigs so

11. i leave post it notes everywhere. everyone else hates that i do that. graham draws on our arm. mark, specifically, hates that graham does that, but i don't really know why because it's not like mark fronts to shower anyway.

12. me. or graham. hopefully me! i'd like to think the transfem tim key factive who ended up naming himself after the british currency was a surprise.

13. connie KNOWS gardening. i don't know if that counts but she's somehow better at it than the rest of us.

14. also me LOL or maybe ez...? or maybe the syskid actually. but he doesn't use our phone unless he's watching youtube. not because we limit what he does or anything, he just doesn't give a gaf about social media lmao

15. Mark, bless his little cotton socks, does have a particular tendency to write in proper English with near-perfect grammar when he is writing in his own diary or our notes app. This does not apply for when he is sending direct messages to our dear friends or using social media, as he is an anxious little man and subconsciously masks to act more like our host.

He also speaks slightly more sophisticated and articulated than the rest of us, and it is, in fact, hilarious. His source isn't even that posh; I don't quite know why he's like that.

also we have auto caps off and capitalising is rlly fucking annoying why do u do that to urself mark

okay enough smacking the blue chipmunk's corpse with a stick time for my actual review of the remaster so far

i liked it!! i understand why some people didn't, but i feel like it found a good balance between new and old dialogue and jokes. it feels more like a refurbishment than a full blown ship of theseus situation. i definitely noticed it's a lot faster paced than the original, but i feel like that's a mix of both the crew getting better and snappier at writing, and modern cartoons being faster paced in general. i can definitely feel the absence of how genuine the original felt, however. the remaster feels a bit too self aware of the fact that it's doo doo ass and often feels like it's winking and nudging at the audience. i don't know how that could have been avoided though, unfortunately 💔 i do like the new jokes added in their own way though! you still get the feeling that the cast is a bunch of freshly formed homunculi instead of the well-rounded people most of them ended up becoming. i say most because. looks at salt. don't worry guys salt character arc in s4 trust

by the way since i'm sure you're all curious how Knife Guy feels about his new voice, i like it so far!! you can tell it's a different person, but it doesn't feel jarring. that's honestly impressive given how distinct knife's voice is, but they surprised me with how on-point's bow's voice was in the finale, so i guess adam's just gotten good at recasting characters after having to do it approximately one shitillion times over the past 14 years. (also i think knife's new va is a trans woman like bow's current va? trans women are carrying this show's cast at this point everyone say thank you trans women).

on the topic of voices though, i'm a little bummed they didn't get a chris mcclean impersonator on board to do mephone's "host" voice. there's obviously no way they could get potenza back after all the shit that's come out about him over the years, but there are SO many voice actors who can do a nearly one-to-one chris impression, the person who voices chris in the comprehensive roast of total drama videos would have been perfect. it just feels like a missed opportunity.

also they got rid of the elephant shit you CAN'T DO THAT!!! okay i'm joking i get why they did lol. the gross-out humor earlier on was definitely a result of the show being made by teenage boys and i imagine they wanna move past that. i will miss the elephant feces, but i will come to terms with losing her despite it all.

anyways i'll rate the episode on a scale of 1-10 hows that sound. as both a remaster and standalone episode it gets a solid 7/10 from me!! my main fear when the remaster was announced was that they would be fully updating it to match the standards of modern seasons, but they managed to maintain a healthy amount of the earlier crust, and i can still look at it and go "yeah. that's inanimate insanity season one!!" good job mario and luigi. yes we are calling brian and adam mario and luigi now. no more core four or key three. it's mario and luigi. and it's awesome.

anyways i'm expecting someone to draw bookshelf as a beautiful fat butch woman by the end of the day. that's not even just because it would benefit me personally (i'm not into women) i just know that someone is gonna do it. and i will send it to all my lesbian friends and they will all go "hell yeah" and it will be so cool

[superscourge]

errrm idk if you've already been asked this but do u have any tips on starting commissions bc I've been wanting to set up my own but I'm like super new to the biz... or whatever ok bye

no worriesss i think i answered a similar question a while ago but im not sure so i'll do my best to answer again lol

this got super fucking long so it's going under a cut

commissions are a lotta work and not just in terms of the actual drawing! it also involves a lot of marketing and getting yourself out there and learning to have good customer service. if nobody knows youre taking commissions then you wont get any! plus, if ppl dont have a good time interacting with you during the commission process, then they wont wanna come back and they wont recommend u to their friends. so its important to be patient and amicable and easy to work with when you can and also make it to where u and others can spread the word about ur work!

unfortunately part of getting a decent amount of commission work depends on how much reach you have and what the demand for your work is like, as well as how much work and experience u have to back urself up with (so like, someone with a lot of examples and ppl to vouch for them is much more likely to get comms than someone who doesnt have much going on in those areas). this also plays into pricing which also sucks but its the reality of the situation. if your demand is low and you dont get a lot of orders at all, then you cant expect people to pay a lot for your work even if its worth it. im only able to charge as much as i do bc ive been doing it for so long that i have ppl to vouch for me, a ton of examples to show, and enough of a demand that ppl will still pay that much to get something from me! which is good bc its my only source of income lol

so i guess if u wanna start taking comms u have to do a buncha stuff, i'll try to summarize what i can think of in a list:

set up an easy way for people to see your prices and contact you! i personally use a carrd for my prices and allow dm's or emails, but i also have a ko-fi with commission slots available for ppl who are too nervous to message me directly

figure out how u wanna receive payment! afaik paypal is the most popular way and i prefer this bc i like to send invoices, but i also use cashapp and ko-fi to accept payments

figure out what you want to offer! its good to have a few options imo but u dont wanna overdo it bc then ppl get decision paralysis from getting overwhelmed at how much there is to choose from lol. do stuff that you enjoy doing too bc if u offer smth u dont have fun doing then its gonna be super hard and grueling to work on those orders

figure out your pricing! a good way to do this that ive found is to set a price to start out with and use it to test the waters. if you dont get a lot of bites then u probably need to lower the prices from there, but if u get too many then u should be able to increase the prices! once again tho ur prices will depend on the demand for your work as well as how many ppl see that ur available and how much evidence u have to back ur work up with (so like, examples of it as well as ppl who can vouch for u)

learn to have good customer service!! this is rly important for me. i try rly hard to be approachable and easy to work with because that encourages a good relationship with my commissioners so theyre more inclined to come back and also recommend me to their friends ^^ plus it just makes sense that u should be nice to ur commissioners lol. idk

^ irt this also, while u should try and be patient and kind to ur commissioners, please also know when to set boundaries! have a rules/terms of service available that lets people know stuff like what the commission process looks like, possible turnaround time, how to send payment and place orders, how you go about cancelled commissions and refunds, and stuff you will or won't do for a commission. anything you can think of to establish boundaries and guidelines for working with you

be honest and communicate with your commissioners!!!! transparency is very appreciated when getting a commission from somebody; if something comes up and u cant work on the commission or it's taking a while for some reason, let them know! ppl dont like being kept in the dark. plus, ive found that 99% of commissioners are more patient than youd expect and dont mind waiting for their commission as long as theres clear communication and updates!

pleaseeee send wips and ask for clarification on anything youre even a little unsure about. u dont want to go through an entire comm and finish it after a buncha work and have the commissioner not be happy with the outcome. that leaves a sour taste in the commissioner's mouth and also means u wasted a bunch of time and energy that could have been prevented if you just checked in and made sure they liked what you were doing along the way!

taking slots is a great way to make sure u dont overwork urself and take on too many orders! i personally use a trello to keep track of my orders but i know other ppl use like..spreadsheets n stuff too? so whatever works for u. just make sure u keep the information (order details + contact info) somewhere u can find

uhhh idk if i can think of anything else rn. but i hope this is even remotely helpful ^^ its just my own experiences and u gotta remember that your experience wont be the same as mine so be kind to urself and figure things out in a way that works for u! o7

Ted Lasso season 4... thoughts...

LOL so it sounds like they're definitely going to have Ted come back to coach the women's team himself as opposed to just being around a bit for whatever reason... while I know plenty of women's teams do have male managers IRL, do they like... have to? Like do they have to make that narrative choice instead of having a female coach?

And they've said the first episode is apparently going to be set and filmed in Kansas, so I assume it will be Rebecca going over there to ask him to come back?

If this is where we are going with it, I now really hope there's a significant time jump, skipping the amount of time we've missed IRL, like 3 football seasons - and that it will be set in the 25/26 football season. He left summer of 2022 and is coming back summer of 2025. I mean, for starters, they can't explain the kids aging any other way if Henry or Phoebe is a part of it. And in terms of the aim of the initial 3 season arc, it would be insane for Ted to just come back a few months after he left. Like. Okay it's fine to leave his son again? I assume in this situation Henry (and possibly Michelle) will move WITH him, because otherwise what was the point??? So we really have to be on top of the kid's age, and it has been 4 years since filming s3!

I used to really dread the idea of a time jump as I didn't want to miss Roy's journey as manager (AND THERAPY), but now it feels like it's the only way it'll work, in particular if the focus is Ted returning to handle the women. A Tedless continuation that focused on Roy should have had no time jump, but this version definitely should.

I have written before about how it is completely and utterly unreal that they don't already have a women's team, even if they were only semi pro, so I feel like if they wanted to explain the whole "starting" the women's team with some level of football realism, you could do it like, okay, they did already have the women's team and they've been playing in lower leagues, way way down, with no funding, Rupert didn't care, Rebecca didn't initially care, and Keeley's plan was about building them up now they had the resources, not starting them from scratch. And after a few seasons of serious investments and promotions they are ready for the WSL, and they need a more high profile manager? I guess???? Like the last few years have been a Welcome to Wrexham situation with 3 seasons of promotion in a row under another coach, and now that coach is leaving and Ted comes in to take them to the highest level? I GUESS.

But also like. Sorry but Ted Lasso in its former form was such a man centric show. Which I wasn't mad at! But what i mean is like Ted as a coach really seems like his most powerful quality is helping boys become non toxic men. Men's support, men accessing their emotions, men's mental health. Ted help guys to Man Good. I just don't think those same vibes will come across well when it's about him mentoring women? I don't want to see him trying to mentor women?? They deserve better?Ted works as a coach when he's helping men be good men. The women don't need his methods.Like yeah he helped Rebecca but I think that was very different. I don't need to see him being Coach Dad to a bunch of lesbians. I just don't.

But honestly I don't really care what Ted does with himself, I need that time jump to happen regarding other characters, to keep their stories something I feel good about. At this point, I really don't think Phil Dunster is doing it - Jamie may show up as a guest in one or two eps... and if it was a direct continuation, I cannot stand the idea that he left Richmond the same reason Roy became manager and Richmond entered the Champions League. I really, really don't think it would be in character for him to do that even though there would have been interest to buy him. But I could believe it if it has been a few seasons and he had a really great offer - especially if it was back to City. I could accept him being transferred after a decent time jump, but I hate the idea of making OOC choices about him to fit their availability or plot ideas. He Would Not Do That.

But if the focus is mainly Ted and the women's team, it's possible that Jamie is still there and we just don't really follow the men's team action? Brett Goldstein IS doing the show but also has many other commitments, so I am kind of assuming we won't be in the men's team dressing room or filming men's matches or doing heavy Roy plot, and Roy will only pop up for Rebecca admin scenes/Keeley personal scenes.

Because possibly the football action won't follow the men at all, as in, they won't even rebuild that old set and stuff, and mainly be in Ted's new office in the girls changing room (sigh, how many jokes about him not looking will there be) so it is possible Jamie is still very much at Richmond, and we see him a couple of times in a social capacity with Roy or Keeley, but if there is no more scenes in the men's team dressing room etc, and the plot won't in any way focus on the results of the men's season, he won't be in the background of basically every office or training scene like he was before.

The more I think about it, the more I actually think this "no men's team scenes" is probably likely regardless of who is still on the men's team - because they want to do all the work they need to do for filming matches and training and stuff, which is big and expensive, I think they'll do just the women's games - they would actually probably get roasted if they focused too much on the men after all this talk about promoting the women's game. Like we had 3 seasons of just men - even splitting season 4 into 50% men's team focus and 50% women feels kind of bad in terms of their aims about platforming women's football. So I am now betting men's team will be almost invisible, with some players popping up in incidental/social scenes.

So. It is possible that Roy pops up in a club admin way/Keeley relationship way - though I do NOT want them to get back together - and that Jamie still is there and around those characters socially but we don't do everyday team scenes. It is also possible Jamie will no longer play for Richmond.

Either way I really need that time jump. I cannot stand the idea of Ted regretting his choice and moving back immediately after all that. I cannot stand the idea of Jamie moving clubs in the same transfer window Roy is hired. I cannot stand the idea of pretending the Henry actor hasn't aged 4 years or the idea of recasting Phoebe. I am furious that they feel JSuds was integral to the show as an actor and that it still needs to focus on him cominh back and coaching. He could have just written it and popped up as a Diamond Dogs Zoom friend a couple of times.

But if this is the way it is, they NEED a time jump. Furious to miss Roy's managerial/therapy journey, it will be insane for all the growth to happen off screen and will probably sit very weird with viewers if he comes back on screen acting significantly different, but you'd HOPE he has changed in that time and at least it would leave us a really good fanfic gap to play with, between the summer of 2022 and whenever this will be set - particularly if Jamie is gone.

All in all I feel like I'd rather they just ended with season 3 and did not do this extension of the show, especially as they seem to have lost a lot of goodwill with the audience since season 3. I personally am very wary of what kind of football realism they're going to destroy in order to "start" the women's team and am going to be on edge until it comes out in terms of "how bad they've fucked it up." That wariness also extends to off screen character choices they will make in order to explain who's no longer around. Cool sentiment to be anticipating about a show I'm meant to like!

[waihtie]

Let's hope this keeps working for forever

Season 5 Episode 3 - Free to be You and Me

○ Jessica appearing to Sam in a dream. She's here to tell him to stop running from himself bc he can't

Not dreaming? Hallucinating?

○ Sam burning all his fake credentials 😢

Dean out hunting without him

Sad music playing. So dramatic.

Sam's working in a bar?? He really tryna live a normal life

○ Dean is trying so hard not to kiss him

The second convo just inches away from eachother in 90 seconds

Cas needs Dean's help bc he wants to trap and interrogate the Archangel Raphael, bc he won't kill Dean bc Michael needs his body

And there's number three. "Personal space" my ass

○ Sam's not gonna be able to stay out of all this apocalyptic stuff

○ Cas wants to tell this person the truth about angels lol

^ You sure do.

*while fixing his tie. This whole episode is so sexually charged, and I'm not even 11 minutes in, including the recap

FBI Cas 🥺:

How can someone older than humanity in and of itself be so babygirl. The OG babygirl, I guess

Lmao he's telling the cop it's demons and angels causing the problems

○ Sam's tempted to call Dean, but called Bobby instead 🥺

I knew he couldn't stay out of it

(just to tell someone to get on a case here. Bobby told him to go himself, but in a more sarcastic way)

○ Cas just casually popped in from Jerusalem with holy oil. Says it's very rare, but they don't seem to ever not have any

○ Dean using his last night on earth move, smooth. Great, now he's pushing for answers in a way that could only be subtle to Cas

○ Dean's first two thoughts when he finds Cas has never gotten down dirty:

1. Pointing out a non-canonically gay couple

2. He's not gonna let Cas die a virgin

○ Bobby did end up sending hunters. They want Sam's help, but no go (for now I'm guessing)

○ CAS'S FACE MY GAWD. Gay panic if I ever did see

○ How does he know all about this girl and her family, but never seems to know anything about anyone ever again?

Dean saying it's been years since he's laughed like that 🥺🩷

○ This girl telling Sam there's nothing anyone can do that they can't be forgiven or change. I hope he takes it to heart. He's a good kid.

○ Cas calling Raphael. That was hot

○ I love how Dean's never afraid to shit talk even archangels (and eventually God himself)

○ I also love Cas's face when Dean tells Raphael trapping him was Cas's idea

Raphael says God is dead

○ The 3 hunters that came to Sam are now 2. He knows Sam started the apocalypse. This isn't gonna end well.

I also also love Sam's puppy-dog eyes in this conversation

Let's just assume anytime this 3 boys do anything, I love it, unless I hate it. But it's usually love. And there's no in between.

○ Raphael says they just want Paradise. It's a godless world, and they are tired.

Cas isn't buying that God is dead. Someone brought him back.

Raphael says Lucifer could've, bc he needs rebellious angels

○ Cas is power. Direct opposite of 🥺. Get a man that can do both.

^ to one of the most powerful beings in existence.

○ Those hunters have Sam's lady friend. Either he drinks demon-blood, or they kill her.

They force fed it to him. Dude's been drugged on top of all the other shit.

He's mentally getting stronger tho 🩷 Didn't kill the guy when he had the chance

○ Awee Dean trying to relate to Cas, and telling him about the time he went looking for his own missing father

"When all logic said that he was dead, but I knew in my heart that he was alive"

He's comforting Cas. I love that for them

Dean telling Cas that he's happy, and Cas just blips out mid-sentence. Abandonment-Issues really did find himself a Can-Fly-Away-On-A-Dime.

○ Another Jessica hallucination/dream thing

"You're wrong. People can change, there is reason for hope"

YOU TELL HER, BABY

"No Sam, there isn't"

WOAH JESSICA IS ACTUALLY LUCIFER DISGUISING HIMSELF

He says this Nick can't hold him for long, but doesn't he for the whole show? Well I guess he's in Hell most of it, and that's not his physical body.

^ How's this boy ever supposed to forgive himself and find self-worth. He almost started to, but

HE SAYS SAM IS HIS VESSEL

So the rib markings are stopping him from finding Sam's location, but not from being there non-physically?

"I'll never lie to you, I'll never trick you, but you will say yes to me." The same way he got Nick

Cas's faith is something to note these episodes. He has so much.

Tim AU where he’s dead as hell

Tim Drake died at age 10 while chasing Batman. Tim Drake dies to a gunshot wound to the abdomen from a bullet gone astray (that goon can honestly die with him cause that was such a bitch move).

He wakes up at the manor, cold and alone. He blinks, confused. He doesn’t feel dead although he’s…cold. His camera is still hanging off his neck and the high ceilings of the Drake manor offer no explanation.

“Okay,” Tim says, “okay.”

He stands up, head dizzy and body aching. His abdomen in particular hurts quite a bit and when he pulled his shirt up, there was a circular shaped scar. It was rigid and a little red on the edges.

Tim, being a ten year old, simply shrugged and went about his day. He continued school even though the people around him ignored him. He still did his work and the confused look on his teachers face was always a little weird.

And after a week break, Tim leaves the house to stalk the bats again. He finds that when he hides in the shadows (he learned from watching the bats do this) he basically disappears. It makes snapping these pictures so much easier!

Then, the day his parents return from their dig, Tim is very at the weirdness of his parents. They’re sniffly and just barely holding it together. They keep ignoring Tim too!!

And suddenly, when there’s a gala held in his own name and the whispers of condolences, does he realize what’s happing

“Okay. I’m…dead,” he nods as he stares at his sobbing mother, “dead-dead.”

Tims eyes wander to Mr. Wayne and watches as he frowns and tries to comfort his mother.

///cutaway segment where we timeskip and I yap///

Now, I’d assume that Tim is…a title numb. He accepts it weirdly and just decides to live as normally as possible(he’s in denial). This time, he pretend she’s alive but he doesn’t actually interact with living beings and their world.

Okay, here’s a new thing

Because Tim is dead, he can wander Gotham with zero issues and thus, starts spying and listening in on rouges. He captured photos still of course and suddenly, he stumbles upon a big plan that would kill literally everyone. It’s set to happen in let’s say a year from when he finds out

Queue Tim finally deciding to do something). He prints the pictures he took(how? I’m not sure. He’s just built different I guess) and he starts leaving them in Batman’s, Nightwings, and Robins patrol routes.

One day, Tim just goes “fuck it” and shows up to the manor. He hides in the shadows and subconsciously allows himself to blend in with them. He’s nervous okay??

Dick is walking down the corridor, photograph in hand and Tim is just so excited! He’s also worried and stressed and dead which he totally forgot about. He scares the shit out of Dick which in turn scares the shit out of Tim and he scurries into the shadows again.

Later, Dick tells the others about the encounter

“Its eyes were glowing pure white!! With really sharp teeth and holy shit—“

“Language.”

“—and holy cow it was terrifying!!”

While Tim is a little sad that Dick(his Robin!!) called Tim, a 10(11?) year old, scary, it does spark a new idea.

Thus, Tim decides to play into the exaggerated narrative Dick had set in motion. The shadows like him and play along with his trickery. He leads the bats with flowing blinking eyes and soft whispers.

And finally, three days before Gotham is to be exploded, Bruce figures it out and the Batfam save the day.

Happy ending! Yay!

Tim probably haunts them and because he’s been dead for so long (and as a child), he literally doesn’t know how to live anymore

The bats have to coax him out of his cryptid, lurker like mindset and now they have 10(is he 11? 12? Maybe 15 now?) year old Tim Drake whose now permanently family.

End lol

Note:

This was VERY rushed and just an idea I had to write down

[ihopesocomic]

sorry if its already been asked but ive been digging for it and i swear i saw somme versions you drew of TLK characters but i cannot find them for the life of me hahah is there a link to these designs? at least here on the tlk tag it doesnt show up :') ty!! love love your work

They were never posted here because we try and keep the IHS Tumblr blog mostly focused on IHS and I guess we felt they were kinda off-topic. lol I believe the designs were posted on the comic's Twitter but the IHS account on there is now dormant and locked. I've given Cat a nudge to post them on her personal Bluesky, however, so be sure to follow her there and keep tabs. lol - RJ

I wish I had more time in the day for it, but I also try to do some language learning!

If you could have any job you wish what would you have? A food/travel writer/reviewer!

Favourite animal: bears!!! I know they could kill me, but why are they friend-shaped :(

What were you like as a child? I was an easygoing child and VERY curious. I would wake up in the middle of the night to do "science" experiments. Like one time I woke up around 3am and I dug up the front yard to find "cool rocks" 💀 or buy mentos from the local convenience store, wait for everyone to go to bed, then sneak into the kitchen and put the mentos in my parents 2L coke bottle to see it explode LMAO.

What’s your worst character trait? I cut people out of my life very easily. I think I should be more forgiving, but I just... can't get passed whatever slight was made to me/loved ones. I'm trying to be understanding and compassionate, but I also don't want you near me ever again lol.

If you could travel in time, who would you like to meet? It is definitely a tie between Johann Sebastian Bach and Muzio Clementi!! They are my favourite composers.

[groovy-rat-man]

behold! the punch out promotional comics and a few (or more) words I have to say about them!!

this is.. uhh. this is gonna be a long ish post

I dont know why but i do NOT like how joe looks here. I think it's the teeth... The bread belt is pretty funny tho and the fact that him and the ladies make the french flag and also mac is here so thats fun!

Aaaaaaa the babies!! The kaiserlings!!! I always love it when people bring up the fact that vk is a teacher and have him interact with his students and stuff, and they seem to like him as a teacher!

Omg hes so pretty and I love him so so so so much i wanna kiss him all over ohhh and his shy little pose when he talks about his win/loss ratio dont worry babe you'll get there, by the way did I mention I love him? (also this is one of my favorite ones art wise, the colors and expressions and sparkles are so so so fun!!)

It's it's my adult son who could crush my skull with one hand, my beautiful boy! But yea anyways he looks absolutely adorable here especially in the 1st and 5th panels also how did he get in this ring he doesnt know anything about anything. (oh yea and macs here too and that's always a plus)

Wifeeeeeeee noooooo don't sit like that too long.., honey your legs... (also i love his angy face at the end an d i wanna kiss him also)

This might sound dumb but I like this comic more for having Ms. Bear than for having Bear Hugger, we actually got to know her name! I also really like the colors and the FIGHT!! thingy those are really cool

Okay so I'm gonna talk about something real quick, it feels like ALL of the promotional media for punch out wii mentions gt's gem. Did they think the fight would be to hard if you didn't know about his tell? Why did they keep bringing this up?? Also he's really pretty and I like the way they draw his little clone thing and mac is here too and his confused little face is funny. (also does anyone know what he's saying in the first panel i really wanna know)

I really like this one but I always thought that the blatant use of his official art is a little jarring lol. But yeah I love how much of an absolute pimp he is here and also how his ass GETS GOT at the end and ALSO how he talks to the audience and references the game itself, that's WILD! Sadly I'll have to dock a few points for a lack of Carmen :'(

I'm not gonna talk about this one too much because I Do Not like what it does to me. I will say that I am (disrespectfully) looking at his boxy little ass

Ayyyyyyyy my main man Soda Popinski!! I'm also not gonna talk about this one too much because the ending is. Not for me. It's for someone though! Anyways yeas I really like the portrait on the first panel and also this was a thing with Joe's comic but he also has an unnamed coach so that's neat. Also Popinski is kind of an inconsiderate asshole so that's fun lol

I love how the first panel has him being all intimidating and scary but every panel after that is just him being harassed. LET HIM LIVE, FOR FUCKS SAKE!!!!!! However much he beat the shit out of the guy in the last panel was completely deserved, paparazzi are parasites <3

HUMMINA HUMMINA, AWOOOOOGA!!!! But in all seriousness the art (NOT MACHO MAN'S ASS >:/) is just wonderful, the colors and shapes and the text bubbles and hears and stuff AAAAHH it is beautiful!! This might unfortunately be my favorite of the comics actually. (also the spotlight and his shy little pose at the end is cute i will admit)

I friggin love sandman yall, I also love how it shows all the other boxers and stuff. Also what kind of asshole challenges a guy in boxing gloves to rock paper scissors? Sandman was completely justified tbh. Although I will admit I wish they added SOMETHING to his character, but I guess they didn't add much to anyone else either so it's whatever

ALSO I JUST REALIZED THAT DOC ISN'T IN ANY OF THE COMICS AT ALL, LIKE NOT EVEN IN THE BACKGROUND WITH MAC LIKE WHAT THE FUCK????
