Feeling ✨whimsical and gay✨ so that means short Spones fiction
Leonard McCoy is a grown man–one with a child and an ex-wife–as well as a doctor, and he knows how to control himself. Of course, it means absolutely nothing when your two closest friends can read you like the first letter of an eye exam with 20/20 vision. Especially Spock. The bastard.
Even so, Leonard has gone this long with his stupid secret kept to his chest, and he won’t give it up now that things have shifted. For the first time, Idiot #1 and Know-It-All Prime listened to his medical advice, and they’ve put more effort into actually relaxing. As soon as their shift is over, they step away and do something that gets their mind off of never-ending space.
(Jim insists Leonard is the only one on the entire ship that thinks that way, but everyone and their momma knows that the vastness of existence is terrifying no matter who you are.)
Their compliance gave them more time to spend together as friends instead of coworkers. Jim and Spock play chess for one or two hours nearly every full day cycle. Leonard doesn’t allow himself the same comfort, because being a doctor means being a workaholic (a hypocrite). He spends his time with Jim normally, because he and Spock don’t really hang out on Leonard’s request. If they did, the Vulcan would see right through him like always.
He and Jim do their thing, and then their lovely captain ditches him to play chess. It’s starting to be routine. Except now there’s been some kind of change, because after Jim heads off to change into comfier clothes before meeting with Spock, the green devil walks into the conference room they had occupied.
Leonard doesn’t even have his mouth all the way open before Spock is speaking to him, standing just inside the doorway.
“Doctor, there is something I must discuss with you that I believe will be in your best interest.” Spock has that stupid standard rigidness to him that makes Leonard’s brain squirm. His face, as always, reveals nothing.
“Shoot.” Leonard replies carelessly, before correcting himself, “I mean go ahead. I’m listening.”
Spock doesn’t miss a single beat and begins with no preamble, “In the past week I’ve noticed a change in your mood concerning Jim and I’s time spent together. You could be described as ‘stand-offish’ or perhaps passively aggressive in our interactions concerning Jim, and Jim has noticed a sort of displeasure from you when he leaves to play our games.
“I’ve concluded that you are possibly feeling some sort of envy for our relationship, or even a jealously of me in having Jim’s attention. I wanted to assure to you that the captain and I are simply friends, though close ones, and that Jim would happily spend more time with you if you simply asked him. The same applies for me, if you wish for it.” When Spock is done, he waits patiently for a response, as if he hadn’t just called someone out completely.
Leonard wants to dig a deep hole and hide in it until he dies. He was foolish to think any of the smaller details like that would get past Spock. For such an emotionless bastard, he understands plenty about everyone else’s emotion state. He hates when Spock is right. But technically, he’s wrong too.
Spock is under the assumption that Leonard wants something more from Jim. Leonard wants /everything/ more from Spock. His silence is telling, and he surely has some stupid look on his face that the Vulcan understands, but he can’t let Spock be right. It isn’t in his nature to let the wrong get past him. He opens his stupid mouth before he can think it through.
“You’re wrong. Well, you’re kinda right in the general idea, but you’ve got the details all wrong.” Leonard stands so he can make a quick escape after he’s done being an ass. He closes the large distance between the two of them but wouldn’t dare go too close, so Spock can’t grasp exactly what he means. “I am jealous of you and Jim spending time together. You’re my friends so of course I’ll wanna see you when you aren’t with me.
“It’s just that I’m not jealous of you, thinking you’re together. I’m jealous of him. I am /green/ over the fact that it’s so easy for him to be close to you. I want it for myself. The easiness, the comfort, your attention.
I want you but I won’t have you.”
Spock, for once, is stunned and curious but doesn’t raise an eyebrow. He’s thinking hard, and Leonard can see the gears moving in the twitch of his mouth. It makes him want.
The idiot part of his brain, the part that makes him so ridiculously emotional switches on right then. Then suddenly, Leonard is striding up to Spock, and curling his fingers around the Vulcan’s palm that lies limp by his side. He kisses Spock square on the mouth, and pours every single inch of his thought into the touch, so he can engrave the moment in his mind for after it’s gone forever. It lingers just a millisecond too long for Leonard to completely detach himself from how good it feels. But then it’s over and Leonard is running off with his tail between his legs all the way to his room.
He doesn’t look back and he tries so hard not to think about how open Spock felt in that moment. He fails. He doesn’t answer his door and he doesn’t leave until his next shift starts. It’ll be fine.
#star trek#star trek tos#spock#jim kirk#bones mccoy#leonard mccoy#spones#gay people#!!!#i love gay people#Leonard is stupid and bad at controlling himself but that’s what makes him tragically perfect#I love them#this was fun#I’ll try more#keeps the whimsy going

I love when Mario gets to be tired and cranky and complain about shit. Mario Sunshine voice lines my beloved that man is so exhausted and so over it he just wanted to take a vacation. I like when Mario goes "That's a horrible idea. I'm not doing that." <--- [The guy that goes through with horrible and dangerous ideas all the time]. I like when Mario doesn't want to do something. I like when he says no. I like when he is a little mean and makes mean spirited jokes about eating an egg that clearly has a baby inside it and robbing people. I like when Mario keeps getting cursed by chests and eventually is just so over it that he's a sassy asshole the entire time about it.
#again. it is integral that Mario is also whimsy and joyful and kind#That is the core of Mario and also makes these moments so much better dhgkjnfh#He puts up with so much with a smile he's allowed to be a LITTLE mean and annoyed sometimes#Also bonus points if it's around Luigi and directed at Luigi because some may see that as him being mean to his brother but I see that as#1) Sibling dynamic 2) He doesn't HAVE to put up with everything around Luigi and can be a little more negative around him#he doesn't have to keep up appearances around Luigi and Luigi isn't going to judge or think less of him for it can anyone hear m-#smb

miscellaneous roman nonsense lmao I very briefly thought about un curling octavian's hair, but cleopatra 1963's influence remains as strong as ever
#wahoo. wild storms took out power for a while but i remain undefeated (i was defeated. on account of i do not control electricity)#this was just. well. it's whatever i was drawing back when i thought the power would be out for One Day and not Several#otherwise i wouldve drawn comics instead with the limited charge my power bank has heghghhhh. moving on!#writing anything serious with crassus and friends feels like im shredding the side of my face down with a cheese grater#there's just. heugh. lots going on in there.#so naturally there's been an uptick in unserious bullshit on the side to balance it out#i need to carve out some time next year to really do geta and caracalla so i can combine the cheese grater feeling#with the batshit whimsy of unrestrained melodrama#roman republic tag#drawing tag#unrelated to any of that. tagalog is a specific choice for the romans but it's also a trap. for me. i keep wanting to change magandang#to maayo and my god you would not believe how close i can to falling for it#fil tag

i've seen a fair bit of... pessimism about dorym lately, esp with the ep107, for example wondering if dorian's opposing views on the gods making orym fall out of love, and i have to say. i very highly doubt it, ur fr talking about the man who has held on to will for so long, holding onto will's family and affectionately calling this *his* family too because that didn't stop when will died. i dont think falling out of love is an option or even a thought to orym.
that said, we know that orym has contingencies for if anyone in bells hells crosses the line into being a version of themselves they would despise, for anyone who jeopardizes their mission. his mission. i think, for the first time since knowing dorian, orym finally has a contingency for him. the longer dorian is back, the more orym sees how scarred he is by what's happened (understandable so) and knows that dorian is with bells hells all the way. but if he isn't...
#lynx speaks#critical role spoilers#cr spoilers#dorym#dorian x orym#i'll be so fr i hardly interact with the cr fandom at large bc soooooo many people are deeply pessimistic#i want to have fun!!!!! i AM having fun#and then i come here and see the most bad faith takes in all of the world ever and its disheartening!#where's ur fucken JOY where's ur fucken WHIMSY#bells hells is one of the wackiest groups with crazy dynamics between them all and its enjoyable!#ur Allowed to enjoy the things u watch i prommy#and to that point! people keep complaining that bells hells r indecisive and there r too many opposing views muddying things etc etc#1. ofc there r a lot of views. the real world is like that too. opposing views is one of the best story elements to enrich ur made up world#2. whenever there is a Big Decisive moment many instantly go 'noooooo not like that!!! that's not what *i*wanted' (ex: the shard.)#the cast receiving backlash from fans every time they r decisive and do something objectively fucken cool and interesting#means that any time they Think about doing a Big Thing... it gets a little harder bc what if the fans hate it. again. should i even do this#separating fandom from cast is a bit more difficult for this form of media and the inherent close proximity or creators to audience#so. just. maybe some of us could chill and cool off just a little. and maybe examine why This Thing is so terrible to u. and remember.#it may be terrible to *u* but thats where it stops. the specific bad feelings u have r not always indicative of media being Bad.#sometimes it's just not ur cup of tea and i PROMMY that its okay if its not

scientists have big brains but the energy payoff is that their souls atrophy at a faster rate than usual so to combat that they need to read more books. and by more books I mean more clarice lispector
#should I give my neuropsychologist pi my copy of family ties and tell her to chill the fuck out#I’m being serious#every time I have to directly speak to her I get deep fear in my heart and her valley accent does not help matters#I can’t grow up to be whatever that is I need to keep my whimsy about me#I respect her like crazy btw I just think she needs to imbue her soul w some literature#And ik bc whenever my life is just nuts and bolts science I go crazy#Just like I am rn

Realizing the Ben 10 love might’ve been a prelude to my Billy Batson love
#they’re very different#but the things I love abt both kinda match#lil kid heroes#transformations with the fun variance in how much of a split there is between the other bodies#other worlds magical and alien#cryptic old man who is responsible for the power the kid has who is good but comes across as kinda jerky#the sort of twin thing Ben and Gwen had going on as cousins born the same time#family focus and fun dynamics#childhood whimsy adventures back to back with fighting Cuthulu as Darth Vader#some magic when they brought in Ben’s magic villains like Spellcaster#the vibe of ‘Yes I’ve saved the universe multiple times. yes I’m not even twelve yet. what of it?’#plus the fact that their mediums keep switching between recognizing how powerful they are and making them just one of a bunch#shazam#billy batson#ben tennyson#Ben 10

When did the gravity falls fandom become such a no fun zone, I see so many people saying how they hate AUs that make bill ooc, and they don’t like human designs cuz “bill would never look like that” and it’s like just let people have FUN. Who cares if someone’s bill is ooc, that’s their au and they’re having fun. Who cares if you think someone has a “twink bill” design, they have a reason for making him that way and that’s their choice. Just let people have fun man
#no one has joy or whimsy anymore#let’s all agree to stop hating on people’s human bills#and their AUs while we’re at it#like just keep in mind that someone’s probably really attatched to that design and now here you go shitting on it#not cool#anyway I heart human bills I heart aus#yes this is entirely about bill because I see this with him most often and also he’s my favorite#bill cipher#gravity falls#human bill cipher#sorry for yapping

its a doodle but! i wanted to share my more refined older mabel design, since ive settled on some more stuff since my last post of her
ive seen a few people give her overalls and it feels rly fitting. shes got big pockets because she needs to carry a million things with her. like bugs probably
shes probably taking an art course at a local college
#alloyart#mabel pines#gravity falls#'guts are you projecting by giving her vpets she carries everywhere just because you like them'#well yes but also its tremendously in character for mabel i think#to have that 90s nostalgia thing going on. shes always rockin a tamagotchi or two#idk im not great at outfit design stuff but its fun regardless#i try to keep mabels design w lots of silly stuff because. yknow. growing old =/= growing up as they say in journal 3 :)#shes not gonna let the adult world get rid of her whimsy. we could learn something from this

Before: i cant tell if the way I've stylized this body is Right or not...i dont want people to think that I'm stupid and don't know what im doing so i guess i better learn anatomy
After: i have learned and am learning anatomy, but i dont want people to think that im stupid and don't know what I'm doing if i exaggerate it so I better keep the stiff, rigid, "correct" anatomy instead of stylizing it to fit 👍
#i mean it is better to learn anatomy but i dont think ill ever understand the Learn the Rules To Break Em thing#learning the rules just makes me nervous about breaking the rules. what if breaking em looks bad.#idek how to break them anymore bc it looks ''wrong''#i know its better for it to look ''good'' rather than looking ''right'' but idk how to do that anymore. bc i cant tell#if it looks good until 6 months have passed ...! idk its hard. i dont know what direction to take my stuff#i just know it keeps going forward and i never like the outcome until ive already started trying smthng else and now#its too late to go back etc#talkys#the same thing is happening now that im doing more animal anatomy studies 😭 im losing the whimsy or w.e

if kh4 is supposed to be like a soft reboot for the series I hope this means that they replace Yen Sid with a different guy. "Yeah Nobodies aren't real people and they're faking everything so you should be fine killing them" "sorry Sora I don't care what feats you've accomplished you let yourself get manipulated so you can't be a Master" "I'm going to sit here and dump exposition on you in the most boring monotone you've ever heard" man you're past your prime let someone else do it
#kingdom hearts#yen sid#like i know he fills a very specific niche that in that he's a keyblade master#but he's also occupying the exposition dump niche and THAT role needs to go to someone else#the ideal scenario is that they let the fairy godmother and/or merlin deliver knowledge with their magical whimsy#in a world that caters directly to me it's ienzo the infodump king himself#in an evil world they start letting ansem the wise give more exposition even though people need to stop listening to him too#and in a mid world that we probably live in they'll just keep yen sid doing this thing#me post#kh4
