"#I don't actually have to have a kid to be considered a DILF as long as I have at least three of the other criteria? #hmmmm..." -- I cast my vote for "intriguing battle scars/missing limb" (you can live without your left foot, correct? As long as you can keep your hands, I think you'll be fine).

Okay, so there are multiple things I appreciate about this! First is the inherent recognition that I already meet two of the DILF criteria (gray hairs? body hair? Check and check.) Second, is the suggestion of which of the additional criteria I should seek to meet. Third, is the very specific suggestion about how to seek it.

While I like the suggestion of an intriguing battle scar/missing limb, I'm not totally sold on losing my left foot. What if I want to take up tap dancing as a hobby in my mid-40s as many men do?! I feel like the left foot could be important for that.

The best idea is probably to come up with a variety of scar and limb loss possibilities and then do a Tumblr poll about them (the results of which I will absolutely not be bound by.)

13 & 21 for the ask meme? 👀🔥

13. worst blorboficiation

i think last time i did this game I said Martin so I'll switch it up

okay so. Jean Vicquemare. well developed character with lots of flaws. how did a contingent of the fandom turn him into like, the poor suffering partner who takes care of harry and gets nothing in return for his struggling. because that is *not* who he is

21. part of canon you think is overhyped

the space part of 'lesbian necromancers in space' for gtn. sorry but. it was easy to forget for the whole first book that there even is space travel (/lh but i do think it's a bad tagline for letting people know what its about mostly bc of that word alone.)

1, 2, & 9 for the "Weird Questions for Writers" if you want to answer any of those! :D

1. What font do you write in? Do you actually care or is that just the default setting?

Times New Roman all the way!

2. If you had to give up your keyboard and write your stories exclusively by hand, could you do it? If you already write everything by hand, a) are you a wizard and b) pen or pencil?

I could, I guess. I just lose notebooks all the time. Also, pencil 4ever. Pens are hubristic.

9. Do you believe in ghosts? This isn’t about writing I just wanna know

I would like to believe in ghosts. People I know irl and trust to be reliable have had somewhat convincing 1st experiences.

I'm so close to done with this time loop fic I can taste it and yet it just. It keeps. Not being finished yet.

Despite the many attempts by the many of men who passed through the Hawke’s doors, Heather had stood firm. She was to be the ringleader of this operation, and a line had to be drawn in the sand.

A line that was conveniently dusted over some moons ago when a cowboy with a crop of dirty blonde hair and sprinkling of freckles across rosy cheeks - a cowboy who wasn’t a boy at all - came to stop in for a drink and to muse over some rumblings she had heard about this place from her time on the road.

saint of ongoingness

greatunironic

On July Fifth — though she learns that after — Heather wakes up in a hospital bed. She’s got a broken nose and two cracked ribs and she turns eighteen in a month and a half and her parents are dead. Steve Harrington is in the next bed, Robin Buckley from fourth period English curled into his side, and Steve’s watching her when Heather wakes up — Robin, that is. He only turns to Heather when she makes a groaning little noise, and his face is worse than she’s seen it before, because Steve gets his ass handed to him a lot for some reason — and maybe she knows the reason now — and he looks at her with those big cow eyes of his, smiles in a way that’s also a wince.

Or: Heather lives.

Bite Me Holloway (Operation Garlic) 🔒

BadHidingSpot

After Heather’s attack at the theater, Robin is more of a nervous wreck than usual.

She considers telling others what she saw, but no one would believe her without proof.

Operation Croissant is on hold. Not only because Robin needs another job and finding one in this crap town is practically impossible, but because there are Vampires in Hawkins and Robin is the only one who knows about them.

She’s all about Operation Garlic now.

I was tagged by @daddygrandpaandthebeaver and then promptly forgot about it for a few days! But hey! Thanks for the tag!

Rules: shuffle your 'on repeat' playlist & post the first ten tracks, then tag ten people. If you're not on spotify, just share ten songs that you have on repeat.

I use Apple Music! So I do not have a “on repeat” playlist but I do have a lot of starred songs and I definitely have some that are always on repeat, so I’ll just pull from that.

Respite On The Spitalfields - Ghost

I Love You So Much (It’s Scary) - Bob’s Burgers

Rain - Sleep Token

I Want You Back - *NSYNC

Faith - Ghost

Calm Before the Storm - Phillip Phillips

Kiss the Go-Goat - Ghost

Lucky Ducks - Bob’s Burgers

Dance With Me - Phillip Phillips

Square Hammer - Ghost

When I tell you I mostly listen to Ghost, I’m not kidding. I purposefully avoided putting every Ghost song and chose the ones I’ve been repeating more frequently than the others though.

I’ll tag @babsvibes @lovelyxxxsymone @koko-raccoon @witchy-boo if they haven’t already been tagged!

002 for Tina Belcher?

<33333

How I feel about this character:  My precious daughter. I love Tina with my whole heart, especially because she is who I basically was at 13 and I love the fact that her quirks are celebrated instead of made the butt of the joke in the show, it's so validating.

All the people I ship romantically with this character:  Zeke. <3333 I am always and forever a Zekina stan.

My non-romantic OTP for this character:  Jimmy Jr.! These two are soul mates (platonic for me) and will never stop being important to each other! I also love the idea of her being close friends with Becky and Susmita. And of course her family, duh.

My unpopular opinion about this character:  Uhhhhhh I don't know that I have one, most opinions on Tina are pretty universal with fans of hers lol.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: Show us more of her friend fictions! The season finale for season 12 is one of my favorites because I love the story she writes!

my OTP: Zekina <33333 Forever and ever and ever.

my cross over ship: N/A

a headcanon fact: This girl is autistic, okay, she is not neurotypical and I will fight people about it!

What is your favorite fanwork of any kind from:

a complete stranger- a friend or mutual on tumblr- a tangible friend- yourself-

For a complete stranger (in the sense that as far as I know, this is not one of my tumblr mutuals), I've really enjoyed the recent, very cute "Boba Best-teas" series of Louise/Rudy stories by AO3 user Rozavie.

For a friend or mutual on tumblr, "Be My Thrill" by @daddygrandpaandthebeaver (CourtneyCourtney on AO3) is the obvious answer. I don't know if I'd even be here ("Bob's Burgers" tumblr fandom being the "here") if it wasn't for this story! Years ago, when I first looked for Rudy/Louise fanfic, there was not a lot of it, and what there was wasn't particularly great. And then there was this story. This beautiful, sweet, funny, engaging, true-to-the-characters story that stuck with me- there's one scene that's so lodged in my memory I have to remind myself its not actually from the show. If I hadn't encountered that story years ago, I don't know if I would've bothered looking for "Bob's Burgers" fic again last year- I might have just decided there wasn't anything good there and never revisited it. (And I am so, so happy to have become friends with the author on here!)

For a tangible friend...honestly, if any of my offline friends are making fanworks currently, I'm not aware of it. My nephew likes drawing Pokémon, so, that, I guess?

For me...I know I've been banging the drum for it a lot recently, but "And in the Backseats We Just Tried to Find Some Room to Breathe" is probably still the current holder of the title of my favorite of my fics. A postscript to "The Amazing Rudy" that features Rudy and Louise being sweet and awkward, has a title from the closing track of one of my favorite albums of all-time, and helped me deal with some decades-old personal pain- what's not to like about that (if you're me)? If fanfic writers are supposed to be writing for themselves, this is the most "for me" story I've ever written, so I guess it makes sense it's my favorite. (But I am glad that other people like it too).

So flattered you thought of me 🤗 That's exactly my kinda thing, thanks!

[marypsue]

Good fucking movie though. A lot to chew on. I have Theories.

So! It's been said before, and not by me (although it was the illustrious and lovely @daddygrandpaandthebeaver who first brought it to my attention), that if Miles is an anomaly and was never meant to be Spider-Man, then it doesn't make sense that he should have to follow all the 'canon events' of a Spider-Man story. Unless, of course, following 'canon events' is what makes you a Spider-Person. Or, at least, somebody thinks it is.

Miguel introduces himself by saying that he's Spider-Man (of course), but then follows it up with, "But I'm not like the others." This is while we are watching him inject himself with something that's visually indicated to be mutant-spider-venom, something that heals a wound in his shoulder and a tear in his suit. The obvious conclusion, of course, is that he's 'not like the others' because he's some kind of energy-shooting vampire government experiment, which we get to hear about a couple times in dialogue. Or possibly because he's got that whole High And Lonely Destiny bit deeply, deeply internalised. One of the two.

But! Not a single line of dialogue in this movie was not on purpose. And Miles comes right out and says it himself, during the big climactic chase scene. "Claws? Is that guy even a Spider-Man?"

Excellent observation, Miles! I don't think he is.

There are the claws. There is the vampire thing. @daddygrandpaandthebeaver also pointed out that Miguel didn't have the Spidey-Sense. And he has to give himself, from the looks of things, regular infusions of spider venom to keep his shit stable. Oh, and there's the little fact that Miguel's whole backstory and motivation is that he tried to take his own place in another dimension once already. This guy has 'imposter' written all over him in 72-point neon font.

So why would he be pretending to be Spider-Man, and why would he be playing enforcer to make sure that the worst moment in any Spider-Man's life always plays out, over and over and over and over and over again? Well, it veers into wild speculation, but like I said, I have theories.

I don't think, in his original universe, that Miguel was its Spider-Person. But I think he was close to them. And, unfortunately, I don't think he knew that until it was too late. Because I think, in his original universe, he was originally a villain. The claw thing makes me think, especially if we're playing off ITSV (and Miguel's motivation is Fisk's inverted, which is super cool, so we're definitely playing off ITSV), probably a Prowler, but the 'government experiment' thing and the imposter situation now has me wondering if this might be how they're going to sneak Venom in there. And I think, much like Uncle Aaron, he was unexpectedly thrown up against a superpowered brat in a lame costume mask.

Only, unlike Uncle Aaron, he didn't stop.

The video we see of Miguel and his daughter makes her look very young. But in the flashback - which, I'll admit, we don't know how much of that may have been fabricated - she looks a lot older. Like an older adolescent or a young teenager. Maybe...about the age Gwen and Miles were, in ITSV?

I think - and, again, wild speculation, but it'd be so thematically coherent! - that Miguel's original daughter was his original universe's Spider-Person. And I think he only found that out after he'd already killed her.

If that's the case, then everything he's doing, the whole 'canon event' situation, makes perfect sense. He has to try to fit Miles into the mold of a Spider-Man story, even as an anomaly. Because Miguel is an anomaly. Because if it's necessary for some kind of tragedy, some kind of unthinkable loss, to happen, in order to create a Spider-Person, in order to create a hero, then what Miguel went through (what he did) was necessary, for him to become the Spider-Man he is now. If the 'canon events' have to happen in order for the whole dimension to continue to exist, then it wasn't only necessary, it was inevitable.

And Miguel really, really, really needs that awful, unspeakable thing that he can never undo to have been necessary and inevitable. Because if it wasn't? If it was just a choice he made, one he has to live with the consequences of? If he could have made a different choice?

Well. That'd be the one thing he really couldn't bear.

(Side note, but if this theory is even slightly correct, then I am also very very very worried about Peter B's daughter.)
