Hello! I’m Ladders :)
I'm just here stylizing some fnaf characters and mostly drawing the evil green rabbit like an animated villain.
Basically, I always loved animated shows and movies. They're why I started drawing when I was little, and I still watch and pull ideas from that kind of stuff to this day. Classic Disney's my fav, so you might see me talking about it sometimes. Anyways, since villains are my favorite and since I've starting drawing fnaf stuff, it's mainly been art of Springtrap, which you'll see a lot here.
If you're ever just looking for my art, the tag is #laddersarts. More tag stuff at the bottom of the post. Also, love asks, but please be considerate about the ask box, ty.
Do not repost my art anywhere, even with credit. I'm fine with it being used for things like a profile picture/banner as long as it is credited.
vv FAQ / TAG GUIDE vv
Q: What art program do you use? Krita. It's free and it "works," which is all I ask for.
Q: Do you do commissions? This answer will change around: currently, no. I've been meaning to, honestly, but just haven't felt collected enough to make a comm sheet and whatnot. Hopefully I'll be able to update this soon though.
Q: What are your other socials? I currently don't have any others, so if you see my art somewhere else, it's stolen :)
Q: Why do you draw [insert character] like that? I normally get this question about Springtrap, but I like to make designs that lend themselves more to 2D animation, which means simplifying a lot of things and hopefully still being able to get the point across. Too much detail and it becomes complicated very quickly. Fnaf animatronics/characters lend themselves really nicely to stylization because of how simple in concept they are overall. They're also left up to a lot of different characterization potential, not just from their simple designs, but the fact that they don't really get super hard-established personalities. Basically, all of that comes together into me enjoying taking a base concept and turning it into something you could potentially see in some older hand-drawn cartoon. As far as *specific* choices for how I draw *specific* characters, I feel like those would each need their own posts especially for Springtrap since I draw him the most. I know I'll have to make that sometime.
Q: Can I draw fanart of your designs? Of course! I'd just like to be credited and tagged so I can see it and reblog it :D
Tag Guide laddersarts and not my art - arts that I post or ones that I reblog (my art tag is all stuff since I got back earlier this year, art before that I just tagged as "my art") justtalks and talkin disney - indulgent tangents justfrens - things from peeps I know and whatnot answered ask - stuff from the inbox goofies - silly stuff midnight magma things - arts from group canvas drawing fanart for me :0 - fanarts of my designs!!!!! :0 present for springtrap :) - ask series where y'all wanted to give Springtrap something nice (there's a line formed and I just get to them whenever I'm up for it, but feel free to add to it) alt springtrap - art of goofy alternate versions of Springtrap I make sometimes: there's currently Vamptrap, Mothtrap, Jackotrap, and ERRORtrap (suggestive, eyestrain, flashing, gore, and all that stuff some people might not want to see I will hopefully remeber to tag)

I love your palia oc Sol! and I LOVEEE the artwork you did of them in palia's artstyle! really looks like official art, if you ever had commissions opened I'd love to see my character in your art (obviously not pushing if you don't do comms or anything!)
just wanted to say I love the artwork and wanted to ask if you had any headcanons/lore for your character? I don't know if I do for mine, but I love peoples creativity and when they can give a story to their oc's/game characters ^-^
omg, thank you so much!! It's made me so happy how positively people have reacted to my attempt at the palia artstyle, this community has been so welcoming and supportive of the art I've made and i genuinely love it so much. I actually made a commission sheet for palia style pieces a while back, so I may post it here on tumblr some time soon! I've actually recently updated that art, since it was the first art I ever drew of them before having a concrete design idea for them:
As for the second part, I've actually put quite a lot of thought into their character, so heres some info about them under a read more :D (also for anyone interested in character plots, the plot I have uploaded to the tour board as Sol Reagem is my original plot, but it also doubles as what Sol's actual home looks like!)
- when they first emerged they were very curious to learn as much as they could about the world around them, and spent a lot of their time talking with Ashura and Chayne asking questions, and just talking and befriending villagers in general. They also spent probably an equal amount of time exploring the world around them (and almost immediately discovering some of the not so legal goings on of the underground). As they start to get a better grasp and establish themself more in the village, they still end up spending most of their time socializing when they can (and more often than not they're either hanging around the Inn or at Jel's shop!) - their main skills are in foraging and cooking, which is quite fitting that two of the people they become closest to are Ashura and Reth. They sell a lot of forage and wood as their primary income, but they really enjoy making extra food to be able to share with company. They also have a tendency to chopping wood to help clear their mind, (if youve seen the tumblr post you know LOL) - they have absolutely no memory of pre void, and never will gain it back. Those memories are permanently lost to time, and its something they're glad for - for the most part. Sometimes at first they do struggle with not having any memories or life experiences outside of Kilima and Bahari, but with time they find family and new memories in the people there :) they consider Ashura a father figure, and ask him to be their Shepp when the time comes for it. - they actually have a little runt palcat named Leaf! She's smaller than usual palcats (and her ears are pretty large looking because of it!) and she LOVES to hunt bugs. I jokingly call her the Village emotional support palcat, since Sol will bring her into town pretty frequently, and often leaves her with someone if they need a little cheering up or comfort.
Thank you for being interested in them :D!! i love when people ask, it makes me so happy to share bc i always put so much thought into my characters
#gray talks#rainbow-randomness#grayscalee arts#grays ocs#palia#palia character#palia human#sol is actually so important to me#i love them dearly (trembling like a dog)#i actually also have a fair ammount of aus with them too - mostly in the world of palia but i have just one or two with a friend that arent

JUNE'S EMERGENCY COMMISSION
Here we go again peeps, ya boi needs some help hahaha! (; ´ ∀`)
It's sudden, yes, but while its good news it comes with bad news.
Good news: I AM GRADUATING!!! Kind of.
Our school directress contacted mom and told me I can walk the stage to graduate, but I still need to do some summer classes to make up for the missing grade and absences. They gave me a chance and I am glad for it as I really haven't been the best student out there. It's strange that they are even giving me a chance and no chances are going to be unaccepted.
Bad news: HOLY SHIT I need to pay 90K+ Philippine Peso school fees
To be fair--we pay little by little so I can do exams (which I don't do because I have been lazing around) and it just accumulated. And we aren't really in the best economic stance either because, without sugar coating it, we are poor. Well off enough to eat and have some leisure but poor enough that we have to support ourselves through debt. I pretty much still under my mom's care despite of being an adult, and work isnt easy to come by here let alone the minimum wage here not really good enough to support a day to day life. Either way, yeah, that 90k will be a pain in the ass to pay for. And I need to pay for them before I finish up summer classes.
Here is the deal
Of course, it's not realistic to ask for 90k commissions lol. I am only asking for comms--enough to help take off some of the weight with that debt. I will keep this post up--and will keep you guys updated through #blog notice in my blog.
I know it's not going to be easy to get commissions but I do hope peeps would spread this around so the right people could see! It would be a nice and I will really appreciate it!
As for commissions, please look here for more info! Although I will show some snippets and some samples here.
Because I have improved much with my art style unlike the last year, I haven't gotten enough time to make a proper commission sheet but I have enough pieces I can make for a sample!
If you want more information, please do DM me or send in an ask! I will always keep them open for everyone.
I do hope this helps lighten up the burden a little and I know I have been asking so much lately (I had another emergency before but that one was a real emergency and this one just has a sort of time limit as I need to have enough money before I finish my summer classes).
As an extra:
For every 50 dollars I get from commissions, I will be doing a full-body piece (line-art, detailed and monochrome) for free. Kind of like a raffle for the ones that have reblogged this particular post. It is to show my sincerity and maybe desperation lol. But really, I need as much help as I can and will do my all to get it. Thank you very much!
Any kind of support will help. Thank you for your time and have a wonderful day!

ERRANT MERCH MANUFACTURER MASTERPOST
list of manufacturers i've tried. hopefully easier for other artists to get started in the merch game. Singapore/SEA centric. I update this whenever I feel like it.
Taobao manufacturers require some basic Chinese knowledge, but it's honestly not that bad. May set up a phrases masterpost in the future.
Use at your own risk because your experience might not be the same as mine. But this is what I've personally experienced!
[R] - Recommended. However, try at your own risk. Caveats will be mentioned
[NR] - Meh. Usable but probably not recommended
STICKERS/PRINTING
[R] Danlim - Self-service again. Less self-prep needed, the people there will give you feedback if they think your alignment is messed up (very helpful!). Supports self-collection or delivery (but delivery is on the expensive end). Supports holo which is very nice. Low MOQ.
[NR] walyadfx.sg - (SEE UPDATE) Shopee manufacturer. Only tried them for transfer stickers. Self setup on an A5/A4/A3 sheet, but since they're transfer stickers there's no cutlines needed. Affordable and low-ish MOQ (if A5 sheets count as such lol) Came pretty fast and the quality was decent
UPDATE: Their printing is much duller on vibrant colors, but the transfers stick smoothly without finicky air bubble shenanigans! Smaller designs may be blurrier, too. Only use for simple designs.
[R] shuijingbiao - Transfer sticker manu. REALLY good quality, super vibrant colours! Blues and purples print well which is a huge shocker. Smooth and not blurry, even for text at smaller sizes. However, these are a bit more finicky to apply, and there may be air bubbles. A total bitch to scrape off too (which is probably a good thing). Make sure to order extras.
[NR] Gogoprint - Self-service is neat. However, you need to prep the files yourself, and a lot can go wrong. Some stuff to take note of is the correct PDF format (PDF X-1A), and making sure your strokes don't turn into vectors (there are some cases where this happens). High MOQ. Otherwise, more crisp than Vograce.
[NR] Vograce - Shipping isn't worth it. Printing is a little duller.
ACRYLIC CHARMS
[R] Juno Creative (Taobao) - Also on Alibaba at a slight markup. Good, affordable, better quality than Vograce. Hot stamped colors are gold/silver/red/green/blue/light blue/purple/pink. Please note that if you're doing hot stamping, DO EPOXY. The foil is not stable and will peel off otherwise. One-sided hot stamping otherwise. Use Weiyun to send larger files to them
[R] Bemick/Wenzhou Yadian (Alibaba) - My go-to for hot stamping. Supports single or double sided. Offer gold/silver/red/green/blue. Printing is generally better quality than both Juno and Vograce, but double sided prints "hover" slightly if that bothers you. Hot stamp is more iridescent than metallic. I like it though. Low MOQ but costly at lower MOQs.
[NR] Vograce - Still has the dull printing problem. Gross markup
PLUSHIES
[R] Gaopeng Toys (Alibaba) - Hesitant recommendation. They are the safe and commonly used option and have a low MOQ (as low as 1), but obviously low is expensive. Up to 3 changes allowed per sample, otherwise you pay the cost again. They handled the engineering of my complex sample pretty well. However, they have a tendency of using craft glue instead of something like a ladder stitch, which may be invisible or awful-looking depending on your product.
Have not mass produced with them yet. Treat as a cheap plush commission (assuming your local indie artist isn't open for comms).
[NR] Vograce (Manjuu) - They're probably middlemanning. They actually fucked up and sent my sample with its back upside down (yikes). Printing is dull (a common Vograce problem). Not sure who they're middlemanning for, but likely Doujin Studio (haven't tried) is my guess.
COINS
[R] Jinyin (Taobao) - Hesitant recommendation. WeChat needed for communication. Printing quality is nice, and they give advice to make your design read better. But the rep flipped out at me because I had an unusual shipping address (Taobao's warehouse).
[NR] Wenzhou Jinshi (Taobao) - WeChat needed for communication. Printing quality worse than Jinyin. Rep flipped out at me for sending the Chinese equivalent of Google Drive (Weiyun). Generally rude aside from that, no feedback given, and they get a lot of customers, so you're not important.
SPECIAL CLASPS
If yoiu're non-Chinese, you can order from here too! Do check the r/taobao subreddit for guides on setting up.
Please try to select 'Direct Shipping' instead of 'Consolidation' during payment though, otherwise you'll need to jump through some hoops with Alipay in order to pay Taobao. (Not impossible, just frustrating and scary if you think your packages are going to be held hostage)
Typical search term: 异形扣
Listing 1
Listing 2
Carbuncle Clasps
Jackpot
MANUS I'M STILL WORKING WITH
[NR] Kakubao (Taobao) - Soft (rubber?) PVC 3d charms, same as a lot of Sanrio charms. WeChat communication only. They fucked up the overseas shipping not once, not twice, but THREE times and tried to pin the blame on me and get me to pay lol. Only got a partial refund after a lot of complaining. They also bribe you to take down bad reviews. Don't use them.
OTHER COOL LISTINGS I HAVEN'T PERSONALLY TRIED
Doujin Studio Bottle Cap Buttons (Taobao)
Wing Flapping Acrylic Charms (Taobao)
Medicine Pill Acrylics (yes, it is that weird) (Taobao)
Please view listings and reviews at your own risk! Reviews may be doctored/paid for. Things to look for are
Unusually eloquent praise of the manufacturer, mentioning stuff like rush orders, etc.
Pictures that look like they came from a factory. The factory ITSELF, not the package. Common tells are gloves/factory equipment in the back/etc that multiple reviews have.

Fresh New Commission Sheet!
As I've been drawing more, I've decided to make some updates to what I offer commission wise!
i use PayPal and Ko-Fi for payment :) all prices are in USD!
Click below for more information!
Hey! Glad you clicked!!
The main difference between this comm sheet and my previous one is updating the prices, simplifying my finishing process, and to showcase more of what I can do with my art!!
Got the norm base prices - 20$ headshot, 25$ halfbody, 30$fullbody
Finishing is my term for shading, as I have two shading methods, and a wiggly-line style of art!
Examples below of Style 1 (smooth) 2 (pixel) and 3 (wiggle)
And I do offer discounts for symmetrical works! I didn't write it on my sheet but its usually 5 bucks, whatever makes the number look good.
Now for the 4 featured things -
Yes, I do have an 18 + account, i'm not linking it here but it shouldn't be too hard to search for my 2nd account on this blog
I'm also happy doing taur designs! I can even make them of usual non-taur creatures!
Nonfurry designs are cool too as you can see by my monster girls, here's a human though for good measure (her name is Sam)
And animations!!! I can do smooth Live2d Animations and also frame by frame animations!! Double the price of the usual commission for what it'll cost, so 40 for headshots, 50 for halfbodies, and 60 for full!
And not listed on the sheet.. Ref Sheets!
The base is 50 bucks for the fullbody and your choice of focus shots, and for 5 dollars each you can get a symmetrical outfit doodle added in!
Other than all that, if you see anything I post and want something like that with your characters, feel free to send it over to me!! Whether its a big OC lineup or some specific pose i did before, just let me know!
That's about it though! Here's my TOS below, and feel free to DM me if you have any questions!
I usually give updates for 1-2 sketch phases, a color phase, and then the finished piece. Once I send you one update, I'll wait for your approval before moving onto the next phase. During these updates, any requested changes should coincide with the stage of the artwork (Posing during sketching, color changes during colors, etc.). Please don't have any fear however if you do need to make a last minute change, just keep it reasonable please. I usually add filters onto my art, I'll be more than happy to send unfiltered alternate versions upon request. Feel free to also personally request different filtered looks (Making the piece pastel, adding a static filter, giving the piece a pride flag overlay, etc.) I'm always happy to experiment. When commissioning an animation, please let me know whether you'd like a smoothly made animation using Live2D or a frame-swap animation. Feel free to ask for examples, but just note that these you'll need to pick one or the other Feel free to message me here or on Discord (Mel#4367) for any questions, or if there's something you'd like that isn't listed here [By commissioning me, you agree that your commissioned piece will not be used for AI art, any cryptocurrency related means, or reused/resold for more than you paid.]

@incognitajones Something with Rose, and "persistence"
(mneme: I Apologize For Everything About This | have a?? snippet?? prequel?? snippet? from the caf au (i.e. in-universe coffee shop au) that I need to update)
Something with Rose, and "persistence"
BEEP "Miss Tico, You Are Receiving An Message." BEEP "Miss Tico, You Are Receiving A Message." BEEP
Rose curled into a ball and burrowed deeper into her bed. Maybe, just maybe, if she ignored it, whoever it was would hang the kriff up.
BEEP. "Miss Tico, You Are Receiving A Message. Alas, it persisted.
Rose growled as she began to grope across the nightstand for her watch. "Please tell me the caf shop is on fire or something utterly dire to be worth calling me at--" she squinted at the clock. "900 hours in the kriffing morning"
"Uh....this is Finn. Finn Skywalker from the other day." "Who," she replied groggily. "....Finn Skywalker. Ah the guy, who came by and asked about kaf beans--?" "Spiran, dark roast; Rishii, blond roast; Rishii, whole beans; pre-ordered a bag of Lamareddian beans due to shortage," she rattled off absent-mindedly as she rummaged around for a holopad. Where the kriff did she put it? Maybe Paige was right and she should stop doing accounts before bed. "Handsome posh looking man, requested the selection claiming that 'He knew nothing about caf beyond he was fairly certain his aunt and his cousin have somehow replaced their blood with it.' PAIGE WHERE DID WE PUT ORDER FORMS--"
"So, you think I'm handsome," replied the voice on holocomm. "No, that was referring the customer," she grabbed the holopad from Paige who walked in--far far too awake for this time of day--and scrolled through orders that were processed yesterday. "Skywalker, F." "The F stands for Finn--" "Yes, that's nice. What do you want, Mister--" "Finn, the one you called handsome, is fine." At this point, Rose's mind and mouth finally came into alignment. She debated burying herself in the sheets again and praying This Was A Bad Dream. "Kriff." "No, Finn," the voice--Finn. Finn Skywalker, or customer who is about to ask for a completely valid refund. -- replied. "I deeply apologize Mr. Skywalker. Completely understand your disappointment in the utter lack of professionalism that was just shown. I assure you the quality of our goods far exceeds my personal failings and--" Rose replied, frantically trying ways to figure out how to recover from this. "Do you like crepes?" Rose blinked. "Excuse me?" "Crepes, Klatoonine to be exact? They probably have other kinds as well?" "I don't hate crepes?" "Would you be....interested in getting crepes with me? In like three hours? My treat?" "Uh sure---" "Great! I'll send you the address! See you soon then." CLICK Rose stared at her holocomm, trying to process what just happened, as Paige ambled in with two bowls, fragrant steam wafting from both of them. "I got a comm," Rose said, taking the offered bowl from her sister. "I thought we had a comm at the shop." "We do," Paige said between bites of egg stew and rice. "He asked if you were single, and I said I could do one better and gave him your holo." "Ah, okay---WAIT WHAT THE KRIFF PAE!"
#incognitajones#me: imma a write a drabbble#also me: 500 words later#rose tico#finnrose#will i update that reylo caf au before 2023? TIME WILL TELL#mneme writes

BUMMER SUMMER || peter parker; ch four
read ch three here
masterlist
an; i hope everyone out there is staying safe and sound. also, feel free to give feedback! i love to hear from you guys.
warnings; mentions of battle wounds (i.e. blood/scars/etc), future smut, mature language, fluff, angst, both peter and oc are 18+!!
word count; 2.1k+
edie's pov
"give up now, parker. i can do this all day." i say with a heavy breath as i hold peter in a headlock between my legs. we've been messing around with each other, showing off what we're capable of. somehow that led us to this moment.
he's struggling to break away from my hold. using all his strength to squirm away, he lets out grunts that eventually end with a big sigh as he gives up. only to try all over again a few seconds later.
"god it's like your legs are made of steel, this is inhumane." he puffs out, finally accepting defeat.
"oh. oh! my eyes! what is going on in here?" a voice booms throughout the room.
both our heads snap to the sound at the doorway to see happy standing there with his hands over his eyes. tony's voice can be heard in the hallway.
"what? why are you doing that, happy? oh lord! jesus children, it's only the first day." he shouts as he shields his eyes away from our general direction. i scramble away from peter and we each end up on either side of the blue mat that covers half of the room. both of our faces are flustered and shaded a guilty hue of red even though we weren't doing anything worthy of that feeling.
tony saunters over to a table on the side of the room and motions for us to join him. i hop up off of the ground, brushing myself off and moving my hair out of my face. i take my place next to mr. stark and peter follows in suit on the opposite side of him.
"okay so as you know- peter, take your mask off. what is this a kid's costume party?" tony pokes fun at peter who rushes to take the mask off and holds it down by his side. i can't help but let out a muffled laugh at the embarrassed boy. he meets my eyes with no readable expression, only holding it for a moment before focusing back on mr. stark.
he continues on, "alright. now that that’s handled... let's get some ground rules on the table." he looks at both of us in the eyes before talking again.
"rule number one, you must always be on alert. you'll be the only ones here for the most part, aside from the occasional visits from happy or myself.
number two, one of you must be here at all times. you can take turns going out and helping old ladies cross the street, or whatever it is that you guys do. hey, hey, i'm kidding don't give me that look, peter.
number three, i expect weekly updates from you. edie, you'll probably want to handle that.
and lastly rule number four, i just added this one because i didn't think it would be a problem, but who am i kidding? no hanky panky in my compound. got it?"
i snap out of my focused state at that last part. my mouth bobs open and closed like a fish as i search for something to say. never in a million years would i think about doing things with peter. just the thought of it made me shiver.
"hello? i need an answer." tony says as he looks between the both of us. it's then that i notice peter- again- is flustered beyond belief.
peter's pov
"you got it mr. stark." i blurt out. he gives one last glance between us and nods his head in satisfaction.
"good. i'll see you two crazy kids later." he responds with a wink as he walks backwards towards the door, giving us laser fingers before he turns and is gone from the room. i move my attention to happy who was trailing behind him.
"don't make me come back here more than i have to." he says with a fake smile and wave before disappearing as well.
i turn to the only other person left in the room. the said person who suddenly makes the butterflies in my stomach turn on each other to form an all-out war. the scary part about this feeling is...i have no idea why i feel it. and it's sprung up on me out of nowhere. all i know is that as of late, being around her makes me nervous, and sweaty.
"i'm gonna go...take a shower," i say pitifully. i internally scold myself for being so weird all of a sudden, but without waiting for an answer i bolt out of the room and make my way to my own space i’ll be staying in this summer. during my escape, i hear the faintest 'bye' coming from edie's direction.
finally in my room, i press the button that releases my suit from my body and shimmy out of it, starting to feel claustrophobic beneath its tight hold. while showering was just the first thing i could think of for an excuse, the idea doesn't sound so bad. i scramble through my suitcase and find all of the things necessary to take a shower. i carry it all to the bathroom and turn on the water.
while waiting for it to warm up, i stare at myself in the mirror. my hair is damp from the sweat that always comes when i wear my mask. i just look rough. my cheeks are red and flustered- an emotion i find myself feeling a lot lately- and the only reason as to why, is the reminiscent feeling of edie's thighs wrapped around my head. a combat move that is a bitch to be stuck in is now sending shivers down my spine in the strangest way. the feeling of her soft, yet durable suit against my cheeks is fresh in my mind. part of me wants to feel her actual skin caressing my face. just the palm of her hand. or maybe even her lips.
the scandalous thought hits me in the face when i remember who it is i'm thinking about. no no no. i'm just a horny boy who is thinking with the wrong part of his body. there is no way i can be thinking these things about edie. not my best friend, that would be so weird.
right?
-
it's nearing dinner time the next day after mr. stark and happy left to meet up with the others. i've done my best to stay in my room, but the nagging feeling in my stomach craved for any food other than the peanut butter crackers i smuggled in the middle of the night.
with a groan, i peel back my sheets and crawl out of bed. i walk over to my door and pull it open, checking both ways to see if it was clear. i sigh with relief as i see no signs of edie and step out into the hall.
it's not that i don't want to see her, but...i kinda don't want to see her. i took the time to myself to think of my messed up feelings. i haven't always felt this way. edie has always been my best friend, and that's all i saw her as. but when i realized i wouldn't see her for three months, my heart hurt and my stomach twisted. now that it's just the two of us, those feelings are magnified and blaring and overwhelming.
halfway to the kitchen i hear footsteps bounding down the hallway behind me. i whip around just to be tackled to the ground by an alarmingly strong body.
"where ya been, pete? i've tried to get you out of your room all day. by the way, i like the shirtless look." edie pants from above me with a cheeky wink. i feel myself melt at her words. she wanted to see me. who am i kidding? of course she did, i'm the only other one in the compound and she’s probably bored. i'm dragged out of my thoughts when the rest of her sentence hits me.
looking down i do realize i have no shirt on, only a pair of sweatpants that are now sitting a little too far down on my hips due to the way edie is sitting on me. i scramble out from underneath of her, keeping hold on the band of my pants to ensure no more embarrassment. my movements send her flying on her butt a few feet away.
"oof, okay. my bad." she says awkwardly, but continues, "hey i was thinking of going out tonight? kicking a little ass and whatnot. wanna be my guy in the chair?" she asks from the ground as i stand to fix my pants. i curse my cheeks as i feel them redden.
jumping at an idea, i suggest something else, "actually i-i'll go out. don't worry about me though, i've got karen. wouldn't wanna make her jealous." i say, trying to joke. her face drops slightly before covering it up with her bright smile. i wonder how many times she's done that without me noticing.
"right. spider boy doesn't need little ole me. i'll be here when you get back." she chirps as she hops up from the floor, "at least keep me in mind when you're out there. i'll be right here." she taps her ear and i notice the tiny piece of metal made to fit her ear perfectly. it's her comm that tony gave us to ensure we're always sure of each other's safety. mine is sitting in my room, untouched.
"okay, e. i better get r-ready to go." i stammer out and turn back to my room.
"aren't you gonna eat?" she calls from behind me as i make my retreat.
my mission to get food was unsuccessful.
edie's pov.
i watch peter stumble back down the hall, seemingly eager to be anywhere i'm not. i brush the thought away and cop it up to nerves. we're officially here by ourselves, i'm nervous too.
i turn on my heel and head to the kitchen, where i begin making mac and cheese. it's one of my favorite things to eat, so i double the portions for later. or maybe i'll be generous and share some with peter.
my ear piece makes a short static noise and soon peter's voice is flooding through my head, "i'm heading out now, edie. uh, i guess let me know if there's an emergency or something. but other than that i'll be offline." he says, immediately doing so before i can respond.
i huff and plop myself down on a stool, waiting for my water to boil on the stove. my heart begins to sink. if peter is going to be acting this way the whole time we're here, i don't know if i'm so excited anymore. sure, i know this is a huge responsibility on our shoulders but we can still have fun, right?
"a watched pot never boils." i whisper to myself as i let my head fall into my hands. soon after that i feel my mind start to slip into a calmer state, easing me into a sleepy trance. i try my best to fight the feeling, but as soon as my eyes slide shut, i'm done for.
-
"edie? e? what's going on over there? there's an alarm going off, edie. edie!"
my head snaps up off of the marble kitchen island as i take in the room around me. the pot of water is definitely boiling now. so much so that the smoke detectors have started going off.
"edie!"
i stand up, still trying to gather myself and run over to the stove.
"pete? gosh, sorry. it's nothing i'm fine, i was just- FUCK. oh ouch ouch ouch." i put my thumb in my mouth and begin to suck on it, apparently i'm not awake enough to realize the pot is hot as hell before i tried to move it from the burner.
"e? are you okay? i'm coming back, hold on." peter says, worry lacing through his words. i hop up and down silently, holding my hand to my chest.
"no, no. i'm okay, just a little accident in the kitchen, i'll live." i reply, doing my best to not worry the boy protecting the city.
"oh my god, you cut off a finger, didn't you? i thought knives were your thing! i'm almost there."
"no! gosh, peter, i'm fine. finish your patrol. i'll see you later." i rush out, now at the sink, running cold water over my burn.
"too late i'm already here." he says. there’s some rustling coming through the comm, and he lets out a faint curse, "the doors aren't opening. what the hell?"
there's a silence.
"mr. stark never logged my finger print." he says, defeated. i can't help but laugh at his misfortune.
"don't worry, peter i'm coming to save you." i say with a coy smile, glad he can't see how much i'm enjoying this moment.
"totally unfair," he mutters, "i was supposed to come save you. but then again, what ever would i do without you, wolfie?"

Part 9! Still Day 7! Meet the Family.
***
The room they enter is full of cozy chairs and couches and side-tables.
Inside sits a living shadow in the shape of a person, features only visible by the slight greyish tinge in the lines of their face and the empty whiteness of their eyes.
"Danny," the being calls out as it rises to approach them, towering over them both by a good two feet, "Welcome back. And you must be Jason."
"How do you know my name." He demands.
Spike remains unbothered, eyes crinkling in a smile as he nods to Phantom.
"Danny kept everyone updated by text." He nodded at Phantom - Danny? "It's nice to finally meet you, my name is Spike - or Illustrator if you want to be formal."
Jason remembers Dick on comms, complaining "But Jasoooon-" before he'd muted and promptly been kidnapped. Phantom must have heard his name then.
If Dick had accidentally sold him to the fae by speaking his name where one of them could hear because couldn't stick to codenames on comms, Jason was going to ring his neck when he got home.
"If you'll follow me, we can put the final touches on your room," Spike continues as if Jason wasn't busy mentally cursing Dick.
The sentence then registers.
"My…room?"
"Of course! I'm the royal interior designer. I've been setting things up all week." Spike begins, clearly winding up for the long haul as he leads them out of the sitting room and down yet another hall, Phantom following along with a silent smile.
"When Danny told us about you I started preparing immediately. I set everything up based on guesses about you from what I knew via Danny's texts, of course, so there's likely to be something you want changed.
Anything that's a simple matter of design or arrangement can be adjusted now, and if there's furniture you do or don't want we can get that removed or brought in by the end of the day, barring anything extravagant.
Of course, materials changes to things like the floors or walls will take longer but there are always guest rooms for the interim if you find the current setup unacceptable, though I doubt you'll want to change it too much just yet. Mass changes tend to be more common once the core settles and matures a bit. Still, if there's anything you want or need change, you need only ask."
Jason doesn't have a chance to respond before Spike is opening a door and ushering him in.
The floor is covered by a void-like black carpet that looks Incredibly Soft (he touches it with a hand to test it. It is).
The ceiling mimics the night sky as seen from Earth and the four walls depict the skyline of a city at night that looks only vaguely like Gotham.
In the center of the room is what's at least a queen size bed on a platform. The frame is four poster and looks to be cut from the same black crystal material as the third tower he'd seen outside. A sheer black canopy drapes over the posters leaving only the foot of the bed open. Inside are seven black pillows placed atop a dark red blanket and he can just see the corner of matching dark red sheets.
Jason can't find any light sources, and when he asks Spike says "Lights, 10%" and the stars dim. They hadn't seemed that bright before, but the room had had plenty of light.
A large double-door closet sits against the wall behind the bed and to the left. To the far right is a desk and chair. In between the two - with plenty of space between all of them - sits a vanity. All of them are made of the same crystal material as the bedframe.
The room is dark and enormous. Despite all the furniture it feels empty.
It also feels…cave like, almost, the overwhelming darkness of it.
Warm.
Welcoming.
Permanent.
This is not home, but it's clear they don't intend to let him leave.
He buries the fear on his face under the awe.
"What do you think? Anything jumping out at you that needs changing?" Spike asks after Jason finishes circling the room.
"N-no," Jason stutters uncertainly, wary of misstepping with whatever these people were. "It's-it's fine-Great! Thank you."
"I'm glad you like it!" Orange and blue lines ripple through Spike's form as he smiles, the first hint of color the being had shown. And a helpful tell.
"Just let me know if you change your mind at any point; there's no time limit for this. If you decide a decade down the line you hate the carpet I can change it."
Jason hated the confirmation that he was here to stay.
"I'm normally around the castle in between projects - everyone is, really - but feel free to hunt me down if I'm out! Jazz always says I need to take more breaks anyway."
Spike waves a hand vaguely and his smile turns fond. "And ssssspeaking of projects, I do believe I have a meeting with Hestia, Icepillar, Sir Joykillious the eleventh, Thalia, Algae, and Euphy soon. Lots to do, ya know," Spike winks conspiratorially at him but Jason most assuredly does not know.
Danny snorts, "Joykillious?"
"One of your annoying floating eyeballs, they want to 'ensure the proper decorum is observed, nyeh!'"
And with a final exchange of snickers, Spike was gone.
"You'll understand when you meet one, unfortunately," Danny answers his unspoken question. "But let's just put that off for as long as possible, yeah?"
He then leads them out of the door and back toward the sitting room.
"For now I have someone way less boring for you to meet!"
This time when he swung open the sitting room door, it contained a humanoid wolf the size of the yetis hovering not two feet beyond the threshold.
You know how whenever we see Danny accidentally kidnap Jason, he immediately explains what’s going on? What if Danny forgets to do that and leaves Jason wondering what the fuck is going on. Like usually Jason is in the know and the BatFam has to figure it out themselves, what if nobody knows what’s going on, not even Danny to an extent. Imagine Danny thinking someone else told Jason what’s going on because the sickly child ghost isn’t outwardly panicking/attacking anymore, and the only way Jason is getting any information on why this is going on is through Danny casually mentioning it in conversation and Danny isn’t even talking to him most of the time. Jason only knows one thing for certain, his weapons and attacks don’t work on them.
(Danny takes Jason to the Ghost Zone, unknowingly adopts him and leaves; Jason is in a horror mystery detective game and is thAT HIS ROBIN COSTUME ON HIM; and nobody knows where Jason is, his last known location was in Crime Alley)
