im currently thinking about how sam is too scared to love jack, while jack is content to meet her where shes at as long as theyre side by side. how everyone from her dad to daniel and Teal'c to random aliens they met 3 hours ago all assume they either are already together or should just get their heads out of the sand and make out. how during the zatarc episode when jack was telling daniel about anise kissing him by simply saying "she made a pass on me" daniel immediately went "sam????". how in the nirrti episode with jonas sam felt like shit, was leaned perfectly comfortably against the bars, and completely shifted around to get jack cuddles. how in the memory stamp episode the stamp didnt stick with tealc at all, daniel held onto his morals and fascination of gate travel, sam held onto stuff like dhd, idc, gdo, and all jack held onto was his feelings for sam. how slowly over the seasons people (specifically her dad) noticed that sam wasnt happy, and that she WOULD be happy with jack. how jacobs dying wish was for sam to know she could have both her job AND her man. how, between the later seasons of sg1, atlantis, and sgu, the more proof for just how Married they were the further the distance between them grew (jack going to dc, sam going from commanding atlantis to commanding the hammond). how they were practically made for each other. how hammond probably knew when he met them in 1969 and had been waiting 28 years for them to meet. how jack "adored [her] already" their first gate trip together. how they literally, canonically, get together in every universe. how that fact constitutes them as soulmates.

Disclaimer out the bat, I know nothing about Guilty Gear... But I can still draw some fightstick art for my buddy as a gift!

This one began in August with my buddy wanting to use a previous Crimbus gift I gave them for the fightstick, but the composition wasn't really meant for it. It began as just a rearrangement and then I got a bit carried away, and here we are! I'm so happy it turned out this well, it's rare to see my digital art in something physical ☆

(My favourite part was turning all the manger animals into Sol Badguys xD)

Wait.

Donna’s thing with the tie was smart.

But I mean Fourteen didn’t exactly put those clothes on though. So who is to say whether or not they are actually…real.

I could make the circle tweets race is in trouble for but it’s kinda funnier if I leave it up to interpretation

for your fic prompts, sam taking care of baby jack?

He's so small, and Sam wishes he cried more if only because he'd know what to do to help him, feed him, change him, rock him. At least he knows this, that Jack can't fall asleep, or stay asleep, unless Sam is holding him, and Sam is the only one who can, after Dean tried and nearly dropped Jack on the floor, fingers frostbitten and expression furious while Sam cradled Jack close and stumbled over excuses ("He's a baby, Dean, he wasn't trying to hurt you, he didn't know, he didn't know.")

But even though Sam is sleep deprived and riddled through with anxiety taking care of his- of Jack, he still can't help how much he loves him, how much he'd give for Jack to have a good life, safe and happy and loved, and every day, he gets more and more scared that he's not going to be able to give that to him.

(birthday 3 sentence ficathon! come toss a prompt!)

Custom Magic Cards: Forgotten Companions Pt. 1

I've decided to design some custom Magic cards for the various Doctor's companions who missed out on getting cards for various reasons. My main rules I gave myself were that:

1) They should fit the design constraints of the official Doctor's companions, chiefly in that they're all monocolor.

2) They should try and synergize with both the deck their corresponding Doctor is in, but also synergize with the card of their respective Doctor as well when possible.

3) I'm holding off on designing the cards until after I get to know the companion in question, so I'm waiting to finish the bulk of a companion's run to make the card. I started my Classic Who watching with the Third Doctor, so I'm skipping any of 1 or 2's missing companions for now, and I haven't even finished 3 yet so it'll be a while before I hit the other classic companions.

So without further preamble, here's my cards!

Notes: I was really disappointed to see Jack get left out of the Commander decks, which is kind of what kickstarted this project. I knew my biggest motivations going into this card were to find some way to represent his immortality that didn't rehash how they made Me's card and to make him mostly compatible with the 9/10/11 deck (he's chiefly a 9/10 companion) but try and make him compatible with the 12/13 deck as well (he appears a few times in 13's run.)

I picked red for his color identity both because it let him fit into both decks and because I felt like Jack as a character is pretty strongly driven by his emotions (lust is an emotion.) Plus, red gets phoenixes so it can get creatures that can revive themselves. After giving it some thought I remembered that there's usually a few second delay before he revives himself, so I came up with the idea of him suspending himself whenever he dies. This let him synergize with both 9/10 (extra upkeeps and time travel letting you revive Jack faster) and 13 (suspend causes him to cast from exile.) I then added the "cast from anywhere other than your hand" trigger because I felt like I needed to give him something other than the revival effect so he could be more than an infinite chump blocker. Direct damage felt appropriate for Jack's heavy usage of guns.

Jack was also the only character I could find a piece of official art for from the comics that looked decent as a Magic card.

Notes: Ah, poor poor Liz Shaw. The Third Doctor's oft forgotten original companion. Fun fact: some later EU stuff revealed that she eventually married a woman, retroactively making her the Doctor's first ever gay companion!

I knew she'd be blue because the entire core of her character is that she's a scientist. I wanted her to make artifact tokens to let her work well with 3's card, and I decided on her caring about legendary creatures attacking to tie into the historic matter theme of the classic Doctors deck. I wound up specifically using investigate because it fit well with her role as the Doctor's lab assistant, often helping him analyze clues to figure out a mystery at hand.

Notes: With 15's first season over and done with, I feel like this is a perfect time to pay tribute to Ruby. I rather liked her as a companion, and I really wish we had more than 9 episodes with her. Here's hoping she makes some fun return appearances in the future.

Ruby presented an interesting challenge because 15 was from the Secret Lair and didn't have an associated deck. This meant I had to focus entirely on trying to synergize her with 15's card and couldn't lean into the themes of the deck to help fill in the gaps.

First up was figuring her color identity. I thought it would be a nice touch to let the 15/Ruby pair lead a 3-color deck, so I knew I would be leaning towards green or white, which both felt appropriate given the strong emphasis on family Ruby's character has. I ultimately wound up leaning towards green, both because the recurring motifs around memory that surrounded Ruby felt more green than white and because I wanted to lean into 15 being a self mill/reanimator type deck and green felt like the better support color. This also influenced what direction I wanted to take Ruby's mechanics. I decided to mostly riff on Ruby's role in the finale and theme her card around the idea of "digging up memories." Caring about cards leaving your graveyard felt like a good way to do this, and I went with a fairly straight forward for green reward with the +1/+1 counters. I felt like this added some nice synergy with 15 because his effect triggers on both ETB and attack, so with Ruby you can potentially buff 15 when he sends artifacts he mills back to your hand, making him more likely to survive when he attacks.

And there you have it! These are all the ones I've done so far. As I get further in my Classic Who watching I'll probably make cards for more classic companions. I definitely want to do a Mel Bush card, but I want it to be based off her appearances in Classic Who rather than necessarily her New Who appearances so I'm waiting for now. Plus I can do something for the new companion we're getting next season.
