Stancest brainworms got to me so bad I started doing them in cozy simulation games 😭 (2)

They deserve to be domestic your honor!! 💥💥💥🦹

[hale-powiyewe]

HO HOW DEEP IS THAT WELL OF BANGER IDEAS OF YOURS 😭😭😭

Plus they prefer Stan over that guy that wants to open them up and study their insides with his inscrutable gaze. Nobody likes having someone gaze into like they have x-rays for eyes, even if it's cryptids and monsters. Compared to that wacko scientist (which is the less favorable twin in their opinion) Stan is just a chill dude they can drink beer and moonshine with and talk about forest gossip and their divorces 🍻

DOUBLE PLUS, I like the idea of an ABSOLUTE wet cat of a Ford who's so jealous

Stan : I'm going over to the Pixie's tonight sixer Rutherford is getting married

Ford : b-but Pixie weddings are a sacred and tight knit event they only let close friends and relatives come as it's the only time their matriarch comes out and blesses their union with the light of the moon, how did you get invited?!? 😦😦😦

Stan : idk tbh but I didn't know that whole shindig was so serious; I guess it's on me by assuming with human standards 🤷 I'll swap these jeans for dress pants then 🚶

And Ford is left there fuming like 🧍‍♂️💢💢💢 because HE hasn't seen one in person only through word of mouth and now Stan of all people gets to see it by *hand air quotes* being CHILL???

Ford :

Stanford heads to Gravity Falls where most anomalies are, it has a sort of weird magnet and he plans to study it...

Now consider: Stanley is a sort of mini weird magnet.

I like the idea that Ford had to chase after anomalies but the anomalies always came to Stan (probably saw him as one of them and he's just like?? A regular dude???who's down on his luck???). It'd be funny as hell, Ford mentions an anomaly he'd be chasing and Stan is just like "Ah yes, met the guy. Not good drinking buddy"

This is what I actually mean when I say Twincest is Wincest because I do NAWT have a single poetic bone in my body

there is something so incredibly romantic to me (in, admittedly, a vaguely gothic literature codependency way) about identical twins in love with each other. what if we were one organism once. what if our hearts remember. what if we were literally part of each other, deep down. what if there's no escaping that feeling.

Stancest brainworms got me so bad, saw this on my feed and immediately thought it was Little Ford AU coded 😭

Somebody needs to sedate me omfg 😮‍💨

Tiny Ford.... Stan is so angrily like 'You couldn't leave me be could you, what? What do you want from me? What could you possibly want from someone like me?' and giving Ford the silent treatment while also cooking tiny pancakes for him and making up a tissue box bed for him and getting him a bowl to bathe in. Ford is like 'can we talk' and Stan is like 'No, now step into my hand so I can carry you to the kitchen for your comically small breakfast'

YESSSS EXACTLY ford is literally soooo tiny and easy to squish stan has no choice but to baby him so much even tho hes sooooo mad and annoyed that ford undermined him AGAIN. all that while he lets ford hit on his shoulders and sleep on his chest and carries him everywhere in his breast pocket and cuts tiny portions of his own meals for ford so ford is just forced to "🥺 plssss forgive me stanley plssss can we talk can we make up plssss🥺🥺🥺" at him the whole time. stan knows if he looks at him too long he would forgive him already hes so mad about that dhfjdhdhdhd

god ford feels SO BAD and yet he enjoys the pampering and the way stan just loves him so much his instinct is to tale care of him. that stan still loves him sm even tho stanley is mad. hes such a free loader who cant let stan have this one thing. ford's obsession and entitlement over his brother will literally never shrink I love his pathetic ass sm

[haleswallows]

Hello! Yes, I'm the same anon, thank you for responding! Yep, the snippets definitely helped clear some things up as far as theories go...thank you for the extra crumbs! Poor Tim just outright admitting that he's seeking Phantom's attention...and I assume the thing with the bookshelf is about Elle pulling some pranks like a poltergeist 😆

-The temptation to be that mean is there.

Nooo please don't be too mean to your boys they're just doing their best 😭

Anyway, turns out I can't submit photos anonymously so there's that...please accept my sketches that are based off of your illustrations as a token of appreciation!

oh my god? ooooh my godddddd the arrtttt. the noise i made, probably audible only to dogs. oh my god????

you precious creature, i love itttttt. first, Tim's politce vacant little smile, so pretty and he's just jdkalfhs I am holding him so gently.

And Danny's bitch face!!! Aaaaaah!!!! I love his features and your rendition of the crown. You draw such lovely expressions, I feel very honored you drew something for me!

And I mention being unwell becaise I do feel a certain amount of guilt. So many people have been kind and supportive, amd even more people enjoy my story. And in my silliness, I was almost willing to discount all the ways readers have been on this ridiculous journey with me.

I'm not ok, but I'm trying. And thank you for being patient with me while I find my way again.

An extra exerpt, the little disjointed bit but no longer disjointed.

He joined her just in time to see High Chief Phantom step back from the bookcase in his office and stare quite befuddled up at Ma’ri. The little wyvern wailed brokenly, her tail lashing as she marched in place. Phantom's face crinkled, his confusion clear as he watched the display.

"Do you want down?" he asked. Even as he reached for her, Ma'ri continued to make a racket. "You silly creature, use your wings. Come here."

Rather, Ma'ri ignored Phantom's instructions and pressed herself flat against the top of the bookcase. Phantom's mouth opened and closed multiple times as he watched the display.

“Should we tell Phantom about her new game?” Tim whispered, starting a feel a little guilty. At least when Ma'ri did this to him, she was only on his dresser and easily retrieved.

“What? No, of course not. Let’s see what he does. I hope he tips the bookcase over on himself.” Ser Valerie hissed back, her voice cracking with the laughter she struggled to hold back.

Gods, the knight was a menace. For an ally of Phantom, Ser Valerie certainly did appear outwardly as an enemy. “You know, Ser Valerie, I do think you’re going to be tried and found guilty of high treason one of these days," Tim commented idly in a low whisper. Mostly, his attention was on his husband as the man considered a way to convince Ma'ri to come off the bookcase. The hall echoed with the wyvern's ongoing cries and howls.

At his words, Ser Valerie began giggling anew. She barely managed to keep from erupting, snorting inelegantly. Tim felt a smile twisting his own face. He pursed his lips, hoping to keep from laughing as well, and revealing their position to Phantom. “No, stop laughing," he started, voice bubbling with poorly concealed laughter. "I’ll be forced to testify against you, and I won’t have a shred of plausible deniability. Ser Valerie, why are you laughing? Stop, don’t you see how serious this is?”

She was now nearly bent double, mouth open wide in silent howls of laughter. Tim couldn't help leaning towards her, his stomach beginning to hurt with the efforts to keep from laughing. For a brief moment, just a heartbeat, he wondered what his mother would think of them — the Captain of the Princess' Guard and the High Chief's Consort giggling like children in the hallway.

Unbecoming, Janet would say. And Tim could not find it in himself to care, leaning more heavily onto Ser Valerie as they struggled to stay upright.

When it comes to the possibility of TikTok stealing privacy, there are two types of people in this world:

I saw a lot of jokes about TikTok refugees on REDnote today, which inspired me to draw this.

WIP Whenever

Tagged by @ghostoffuturespast, and I just realised @gloryride. Thank you!

I made new headers for my WIP Whenever posts! As you can already see, they're inspired by the display of the Pip-Boy and computer terminals from Fallout 3 and 4.

WARNING! LONG AND DETAILED POST AHEAD! MANY PICTURES INCLUDED!

Full post below the cut

Mostly VP related for Cyberpunk. Working on a 'fan novella' related to the changes going on with the crew, esp. with regards to the impending departure of Trey on his new journey, and the addition of Jakey to the crew. A lot of costuming updates and fixes for new and old characters alike as I work through and modernise NPV files and such with new knowledge.

VALERIE OCAMPO-GONZALEZ - APPEARANCE AND LORE UPDATE

I've given Val her glowing yellow iris rings back, as I believe that they're an essential part of her character design. I've also settled on her accent, it's somewhere between that LA Chicano accent and a general Filipina-American English accent. Val has a tendency to code switch mid-sentence, and subconsciously shift into Cebuano in high-stress situations.

DORIAN BAUTISTA - APPEARANCE UPDATE

I've also finally updated some of Dorian's appearances. It's been just over a year since I first made Dorian as an NPV and he's due for an update. I believe his 'Corpo Tactical' and 'Fixer' outfits are a lot better suited now. I can actually imagine Dorian as a background fixer NPC at the Afterlife, and not think he's out of place.

"mfw Meredith hits me with that 'enny store employment termination."

Dorian has crossed the Rubicon and gone full fixer. I've resurrected a plot point from the original Brother's Shadow storyline where Dorian is fired from Militech due to Meredith's machinations, and he and his colleague Kaylee Anderson end up going out on the edge, working for Nightowl, the always illusive and unseen man behind Val's crew.

JAKE McCORMICK - APPEARANCE UPDATE

Jakey's finally bought some new clothes! I thought one day he needed some Aviators, and from there I thought that he also needed a jacket. Hence, two new casual appearances. Then there's his 'business attire.' Jake found this surplus NCPD vest and duty belt, and now it's his standard 'work' attire. The Militech eyepiece was a gift from Nightowl for 'good work performance.'

Since I came up with the Buckeye Wasteland idea, I've since put that to the side as my thoughts about my Fallout OCs evolve. Firstly, let's talk about Laura West.

LAURA WEST - APPEARANCE AND LORE UPDATE

"The Volunteer"

The protagonist of my Fallout fanfic, Laura West is probably the last person you'd expect to become a wasteland adventurer. She's not particularly strong, she's not a crack shot with a weapon, and she's not particularly lucky. She has passable charisma and endurance, but where she really shines is her Intelligence.

Before being sent on an important mission to save Vault 53, Laura worked as a computer technician in the vault, a job she was fairly well-suited for. However, she was the last pick to be sent to find a reactor regulator for Vault 53's damaged fusion reactor.

Ezra, the Overseer's son, was better qualified, but the Overseer couldn't bear to send him out into the wasteland, so Laura volunteered to go in his place, to Ezra's horror, because Ezra has a thing for Laura (a feeling not reciprocated by our heroine).

EZRA JOHNSON - APPEARANCE

This is Ezra. Ezra's father is the Overseer of Vault 53, and as a consequence, he gets away with way more than most vault residents could ever hope to. He's not very intelligent, strong or charismatic, but he's a crack shot, has excellent endurance and the luck of the Irish. He could accidentally kill a deathclaw and be none the wiser.

Ezra works in the maintenance division in Vault 53, a vital position, given that everything in Vault 53 was designed by Vault-Tec to fail constantly, as part of the experiment to test how residents would respond to the constant stress of having to constantly work to keep the vault from failing. He is also a massive bookworm, and has memorised just about every volume of the Vault Dweller Survival Guide.

Ezra also has a thing for Laura, a feeling that Laura doesn't reciprocate.

Moving swiftly on...

I've been working on a short story set in the Freerunners universe, elaborating on our favourite definitely not Judy Alvarez-inspired space ranger starship pilot, Zoe Alvarado, and her past as a Confederation of Free Settlements Ranger. I really need to get all the Freerunners characters drawn, because I feel that just telling people about how they look isn't working. I will probably end up using Cyberpunk 2077 to visualise their faces for y'all, at least.

Cyberpunk RED: 2077 Edition - The Old Blood

Remember my Cyberpunk vampire shit from a couple months back? I know some of you remember that, before I took my hiatus and recovered from yet another work-related stress issue. Well, what I haven't shared is that it's been running as a Cyberpunk RED campaign!

My players have learned the dark secret of the Consortium Sanguinis, and one of them has been kidnapped! It's a race against the clock to save him (and his AI brain ghost) from the machinations of literal vampires who walk amongst us!
