AU where Eddie cracks his head off the ground and temporarily gets mind reading powers. He goes to school the next day thinking that this might actually be fun, and it is for a while.
And then he hears bloodcurdling screaming - except only he hears it so, “That’s in someone’s head?”
He follows the sound out down the hall, pass his own classroom. The screaming getting louder and louder until, “Steve Harrington?”
“Yeah?” Steve blinks back into reality in the back of his history class. The screaming dims but doesn’t go away. Steve’s still got those bruises on his face but otherwise doesn’t look distressed, “…You want something, Munson?”
“Um…um, no,” He says. “I - no. Nothing.”
Steve narrows his eyes and a whisper of a voice just under the screaming thinks Eddie is fucking with him.
Eddie barely acknowledges it because he’s stuck on how Steve looks normal. Not anguished. Not tortured. But normal. Bored.
“Well, uh. Well, I’ll see you around, Harrington.”
And Eddie means that too.
#Eddie tries to figure out what’s going on with Steve by reading his friends minds#but whereas it’s interesting that Carol is meaner in her mind than person and Tommy thinks way too much about his former friend i#and Jonathan’s mind is stuck in some OCD time loop about what he needs to do after school#and Nancy’s mind is just depressing as hell so he jumps out of there quickly#none of its helpful so now he has to befriend Steve himself (ughh)#post brought to you by me - mental illness in a trenchcoat#aka a bitch whose been screaming in their mind since grade school (something I found out 5yr ago was not the norm)#steve harrington#eddie munson

Hi! I love your Ghost Primes with Optimus AU! It’s so good.
I have a question though, do the Decepticons know that Optimus can see the 13 prime ghosts or do they just get increasingly confused each time they fight?
Thank you for the lovely artwork!!
oh they Know something funky is going on for sure lmao
a little more serious answer: they can tell something is going on with optimus and they desperately want to pretend it's not. they don't want to know how he's aware of things he shouldn't be, how he knows stuff that should have long been forgotten, how he seems to be more familiar with them than he should be. how sometimes he speaks and it's like the dead are talking through him. how sometimes he will answer to empty air and somehow they can just tell what he's responding to. who he is talking to.
they Know. and they really, really want to pretend they don't.
they already carry the guilt of failing them once. the idea of doing it once more is unbearable and they'd rather deceive themselves than face it. they'd rather their friends stay dead and gone than think of them seeing what they've become.
haunted au
#hey i got an ask#Anonymous#transformers one#transformers#optimus prime#soundwave#maccadams#haunted au#i loveeeee the concept of the decepticons being the former high guard you don't understand-#i will insert so much guilt and conflicted feelings into this dynamic as possible i don't care what anyone says about it ajkshdka#but anyway. the autobots at least got a brief explanation for optimus' weird behavior#the decepticons did not and so at first they're constantly confused and mildly creeped out by how weirdly cognizant the new little prime is#they eventually put it together. and then dearly wish they hadn't because the guilt that brings is Too Much#but they cannot turn back anymore. they chose their path and now they have to stick with it.#so they just. don't think about it.#this is obviously sustainable and not at all bound to result in a bunch of repressed feelings that may or may not explode at some point#ALSO THANK YOU I'M SO GLAD YOU LIKE MY AU <3333#i'm having so much fun with it but i'm so happy others enjoy it too!!!#thank you so much for sending me this ask!!!!#tf one#my art

jared padalecki and jensen ackles boston con 2025 - gold panel
cheerleading and (allegedly non-existent) short shorts
#j2#j2 cons#boscon#boscon 2025#if bring it on (2000) taught the general public anything about cheerleading it's you need dudes for big stunts#and it's doesn't mean anything about anything other than a chance to hang out with girls#and get to toss them around. and hopefully not be a creep about it#jared padalecki#jensen ackles#j2 gifs#jacheer#like i mentioned in the alt i don't know what Jared was using air quotes for#i.... see how it could be interpreted as casting doubt on it being his gf-which i don't think is the case#but i'm coming up blank on other reasons. doubting she was the captain? lol#j2gifs#mygifs#i was a cheerleader in high school and i was a base aka the person throwing and catching people#my arms were basically constantly bruised from being stepped on for basket tosses#my school was very small then though and i'm pretty sure we didn't have a key club - which apparently is affiliated with kiwanis#which i had no idea. i'd heard the phrase before but had no clue what it was#they do have one now along with a million other clubs because the school quadrupled in size since i went lol#i was originally gonna get the uncle jared bits from this panel. and then the double triple quad banger bits#but got overwhelmed and ended up in this section so here we go#public service announcement that jensen was not a cheerleader but did help with stunts occasionally#jared joked about using ai to make a picture of jensen in hs cheer short shorts out of the cannon but plz no ;(#and as a former cheerleader (aka a total expert 🤪) i agree that no he wasn't a cheerleader#helping with stunts occasionally during football games a cheerleader does not make#maaaaybe a little thank you credit on the yearbook page :p

joking aside, while jonny, alex and tim fearon are all credited as [ERROR], the casting image clearly has different garbled text for all of them. So it seems like [ERROR] is something like a status condition, though how exactly you get it... dimension-hopping? avatarhood? being a computer and/or tape recorder? who knows

Echo during his time with the 501st: doing body shots, dancing on tables, blowing things up in the barracks with Fives, creating chaos with Fives, doing keg stands, complaining about them leaving the club “too early” even though it’s four in the morning, being the reason that new rules were added to the reg manuals, generally being an absolute terror
Echo during most of his time with the Bad Batch: tucking kids in, telling bedtime stories, always carrying healthy snacks, in bed by nine, putting people in time-out, telling “kids” to behave, tending to sick “kids”, being the only one to put their foot down and shut down any shenanigans, generally being a mom and an absolute angel (of course this is when he isn’t being the absolute badass that he is and always had been since let’s not forget that he’s an ARC Trooper)
#echo has the energy of a mom who was a former sorority party girl who is now in bed by nine and only prepares organic snacks for her kiddos#I regularly imagine him watching one of his siblings (Crosshair most likely) being absolutely irritable and hangry#and just wordlessly pulling out an array of snacks and handing one to them#he probably tucks omega in at night and tells her fun stories about his past#he’s the mom but he’s also a cool and badass mom don’t forget that he’s an ARC trooper#the rest of the batch probably look up to and admire him so much and think he’s SO COOL#his lore goes crazy and he’ll drop it in the middle of dinner and continue on as if he didn’t just ROCK the batch’s world#nothing can change my mind#star wars tbb#star wars the bad batch#the bad batch#arc trooper echo#tbb echo

Sort of feels like the writer’s strike gave the team a lot to ruminate on and a lot of pivots came out of that. Want to be clear: I don’t think that’s necessarily a bad thing. It bums me out that we’ve lost characters and actors I adore, but that was always going to be this kind of show. And they’ve proven they were willing to let the narrative breathe from the start: that’s why we had Laura Lee so long, it’s why Adam wasn’t Javi, it’s why Van got to grow up. I love that. I love writers that don’t get so cemented in their initial plan that they can’t evolve.
Where I do get a little finicky is everyone insisting it’s a “trade” for Swank, or that “a background character did this!” Melissa’s been getting fleshed out all season. You think that was an accident? Shauna’s paranoid murder of one lover looked crazy in season one, but now we’re in season three and we find out this is a pattern. Paranoia. Hard-and-fast ill-advised love affairs that turn vicious. Building her own enemy out of an innocent. Adam truly couldn’t see it coming, but Melissa gets decades to dwell. Melissa, who was introduced as someone who thought cannibalism wouldn’t be the worst thing. Melissa, who stood at Shauna’s back until it proved bad for her specifically. Shauna’s always been the heart of the story, the teammate whose eyes we stare through. Of course it’ll all come down to her. And of course she needs someone to go head to head with. She thinks she’s only haunted by Jackie, so obsessed with this ghost that she forgot (well, I guess didn’t realize, due to Faked Suicide) she fully crafted a very-alive haunting of her narrative. You don’t escape the awful shit you’ve done. It will follow you. That’s the whole point of this character. Do I want her instead of Van? Obviously not. But for this story of never forgiving, of carrying your sins home and being eaten alive by them? Yeah, I get it.
#yellowjackets#yj spoilers#yj meta#you don’t have to like every choice they make or agree#but in terms of a building narrative it all trends#(save for Lottie but the whole Lottie’s death thing is a setup for the finale so I assume we’ll get more catharsis next ep for that)#(and I assume in so doing it gives Misty a Reason)#cuz here’s the deal: Shauna is paranoid and messed up and struggling and that isn’t new#she’d be left in the dust by the other ‘saner’ YJs if not for#Tai having a woman to actively blame for the loss of the love of her life#and Misty having a narrative antagonist in the form of her former boyfriend#because I really have to assume Walter killed Lottie#and now we have three women on the warpath#you think that’s not gonna be fascinating?#I do#I think it’s gonna be buck wild#and hopefully we get to see Kessell and Ambrose again#but either way this doesn’t feel on the fly to me#it feels like evolution of the most brutal kind

ever stop and think about how actually funny it is that robotnik became a streamer and GUN still could not get him? i mean yea that was cut entirely but imagine if it wasn't
robotnik just fcking streaming fortnite and GUN all over the world keeping his survival secret cus they are too embarrassed to admit that they still can't fucking locate him. bc of the techs and everything. meanwhile doc's just traveling the world underwater with his househusband.
#i know that 97% of his viewers are bots prolly#but i just can see this tired poor IT major employee at GUN watching his stream at 3 am almost loosing it#bc how is the former most brilliant mind of the government#uses his technology now#to hide his location#TO STREAM FUCKING FORNITE#also i know this is sad hour at stobotnik community srry#couldn't resist telling you that i think stone 100% got ivo kirby cale from kirby cafe while they were in tokyo#stobotnik#sonic movie#sonic movie 3#ivo robotnik

:) i certainly have no issue dressing in drag :)
^guy who has no issue dressing in drag btw
glenn said that dennis' drag name is victoria von hemen btw
(Source)
#glenn howerton#guy who should get to dress in drag#im just. ill never be over the fact that glenn wrote Two episodes in season 3 that involve dennis doing drag#i know he doesn't really want to write for the show but there's something so special abt how early sunny was an actor's sandbox#esp hearing glenn talk abt how den is like. an outlet for him and a way to play around with shit he would never do for one reason or anothe#my point being that i think its been a while since he was able to utilize dennis again in that way#but 16 was a definite change. especially with dtamhd it feels like dennis is becoming more glenn again. like he was in the early days#theres a pretty good stretch of the show once it got into the double digits that feels like den was. co-opted.#but like i wonder how it feels to explore sexuality and gender via your character#it must be similar to doing that through fandom and OCs but there's a whole other layer to it here#esp when its not Just being presented as comedic as it was in past seasons. like dennis is Actually queer and this is a normal plot point#its not the punchline like den's femininity often is its literally just part of what makes him able to help mac and dee#id argue we've gotten this in the form of. dennis doing dee's makeup and shit. but#anyway. glenn. now that you have two of your former writing assistants in that writers room i hope you get to do drag again 💀#its been 16 years. show us the new and improved victoria.#i honestly can't imagine pitching something like that to a room of people Without some sort of comedic twist but#man.#ada speaks#iasip#it's always sunny in philadelphia#rcg#i won't ever forget the way he lit up talking abt queer dennis jhksvfjhksvdfgjhkds#love u king...... i hope you get something in s17 that you Certainly Don't Mind

Eepy + sick late night Holywater duo doodlies/designs I drew the other day (✷‿✷)
Apologies for the messiness lmao- I've been a bit demotivated in the digital department, so I've been drawing in my sketchbook a lot. Honestly, it has been pretty fun, so I figured I could share these sketches (・∀・)
#the realm smp#trsmp#the realm fanart#tr!bbh#badboyhalo#tr!water#watermunch#holywater duo#godd i love drawing tr!water and drunkboyhalo#tr!water's design is very ocean themed since i think cc!water said that his character's dragon form was a sea drake#so i have this hc that tr!water's former treasure hoarde was either near or in the seas#also tr!bad's design before he got drunk was inspired by catholic church figures attire-#and now after becoming an alcoholic he probably just wears like a silk nightgown or a robe that's seen better days- just like tr!bad! :0#badboyhalo fanart#watermunch fanart

my current read on yoshidas ch is that hes the equivalent of a high schooler being made manager of a mcdonald’s bc all of his adult coworkers quit which leads him to believe that the fate of the world now depends on his ability to keep the drive thru times below 90 seconds
#chainsaw man#csm#i doubt this is the reality bc of themes of everyone being irrelevant pawns in the horseman/primal fears grand plans but it would be v funny#if whoever’s in charge of public safety rn meets up w yoshida and is like wdym you didn’t convince denji to stop being csm 😐 u were out only#hope ig were fucked now 😔 while yoshidas moments away from setting the building on fire thinking abt his calc 1 exam tmmrw#sometimes the fate of the world depends upon ur fry person and sometimes it depends upon manipulating the host of a primordial being w lame#ass threats related to his similarly immoratal thru a cycle of reincarnation baby sister/former boss#.txt

the way that nick spell in 14x17 makes it canonically SO easy to open a portal to the empty. it drives me insane. dean literally HAD cas's blood. on his jacket. it was all right there. it was set up perfectly. why show us nick opening a portal to the empty and specifically showing that the main ingredient was BLOOD then. not using that. dean was meant to rescue cas!!!!! full circle moment. i'm the one who gripped you tight a raised you from perdition. what's the matter, cas? you don't think you deserve to be saved? i love you, too. of course i love you. SMOOCH. anyways.
#anyways working on fic plotting things and the friggin nick spell making it so easy to open a portal to the empty is infuriating me#i need it to be more complicated. for plot reasons. so now i need to conjure up some Lore as to why it won't work in this scenario#like if all you needed is some blood from the person in the empty or a relative then. so many angels and demons could've been pulled out#i think the fact that nick was a former vessel might be a good requirement#also just how the hell did NICK of all people find this spell and execute it???

While I think the moment in cql where Meng Yao– still bleeding from a stab wound in his chest btw– realizes Lan Xichen is in danger and decides to save the man who was so kind to him in cloud recesses is cute and all, nothing will ever beat the book for me. Little bookkeeper civilian Meng Yao, who has not had a serious chance to make his dreams of being a cultivator come true in fucking years, out of nowhere gets the fucking sect leader of Gusu Lan dropped right in his lap?
It's such a great example of Meng Yao's multilayered motivations to me. Because is civilian Meng Yao thinking of all the ways he can use this? Of the fact that having a great sect leader in his debt is the best thing that could happen to him? Duh. Obviously.
Is he very purposeful about appearing to Lan Xichen as a kind young man full of untapped potential, brave and willing to put his life on the line even though he really doesn't know so much about about cultivators, no sir, except a little he picked up here and there, because you see his father– 👉👈 Of course he is!
But the way through which he does that is... by actually saving Lan Xichen's life, at no doubt significant personal risk. The way he makes Lan Xichen believe he's kind and selfless is by... being kind and selfless. Just because he's doing it on purpose doesn't mean he's not doing it.
Is it lying if you want people to think you're nice and so you're nice to them? Isn't that just called being nice? Yes, he is very purposeful about how he appears to people, and very carefully crafts an image based on what he wants them to think of him, but most of the time he does that simply by... actually being the kind of person he wants to appear as. He still did the kind things he did, regardless of his motivations for doing them.
#mdzs#mdzs meta#meng yao#jin guangyao#lan xichen#rs: i wish it could've been you#I think for a guy like nmj the reason this 'fakeness' is scary is because it makes him unpredictable#meng yao COULD be nice to you because he wants you to think well of him and the best way to do that is simply being nice.#OR he could be planning to kill you later. you have no way of knowing which one it is.#but like... the existence of the latter– while obviously very troubling!– doesn't really make the former manipulation in and of itself#but both people in universe and the fandom frustratingly often take it as such#'i want this person to like me so i'm gonna be nice to them' <- this is not manipulation. this is just interacting with people.#anyway this dual motivation probably also applies to show meng yao. who is scrambling to find something else now that he's been banished.#but the reason the novel grips me so much is little civilian a-yao doesn't even *know* lan xichen yet.#it's the journey of this at first being very inpersonal- both as an opportunity and as a heroic act#(the impression he's giving being that he saved a stranger because he's just that kind of person 😇)#and over the course of their time spent hiding together becomes... very very personal.#meng yao coming in with a very general plan that he could charm any kind of person with and slowly adjusting it to fit lxc#but how is that so different from just... getting to know a person and realizing what kind of relationship you want to have with them?#I also just think it's cute to have a-yao get bonked over the head with the realization that this guy is so fucking NICE what the FUCK?#no way he's this lucky. good shit doesn't *happen* to him where's the catch with this guy??? hello???#lucky of course both on a personal level and for his practical goals. i loveeee both sides of a-yao's brain screaming in tandem
