Hello! I saw from a moot that you were doing art of people's s/is and their f/os and I was wondering if you could do one for me?
This is the face claim that I use so she's basically my s/i? Her name is Jay Roxxx btw :3 And for the rest of her outfit it can be just navy blue baggy jeans, a black belt, and white Reebok sneakers if that helps. Also no lip or eyebrow or any piercings other than hoop or stud earrings. No tattoos or any other jewelry (if you can a silver rosary necklace would be nice but of course no pressure.)
And my f/o Eddie Munson you can use this pic for a reference :)
Tysm if you do draw us! Hopefully I'm not pressuring you or anything!
no pressure at all! thank you for the wait <3
#self ship art#self ship#my art#random ramble but#drawing this made me remember stranger things was a thing... me and me family binge watched like s1 and s2#but we never got to the season this guy was in!!!! mayb i should rewatch someday#super pretty s/i btw you guys look lovely togeether : DD#ALSO HIS HAND IS ON. UR S/I'S HEAD IF IT DOESNT MAKE SENSE. SILVER STUFF ARE RINGS !!! ON HIS FINGERS

apropos of nothing in particular: hey folks who haven't been following me since 2017, check out the first art that ever grabbed me by the throat and demanded I write a fic about it
When Wash is feeling anxious/paranoid (which happens often and for various reasons), and they’re not actually in any danger yet, Tucker kinda casually holds the back of his neck, conveniently right over the mess of the implant site, just keeps his hand there. It sorta helps Wash feel a little safer.
#*giving OP a lil wave* hi lol#I reread the fic just now too bc I was curious and (aside from some messy residue of a last-minute verb tense change) it still holds up!!#I can def see the prototypes of some of my the writing habits that have become staples of my style#and especially of my more emotional writing#A Chance To Die By The Sword is def cut from the same cloth as this fic I think#anyway yeah :3#quoth nsd#rvb#gods I should rewatch the chorus trilogy..........#maybe someday soon.#it's v fun that I've now done this enough that it feels characteristic of me#like seven out of 135 is not that many#6 out of 82 is also not that many#but it's enough to be a definite trend lol#especially if we look at who the arts are by. but we don't need to talk about that part lmao

Are you ever gonna go back to writing jjba on ao3? Honestly I keep rereading all of them to this day and your writing is the best thing I’ve ever come across to.
Hey, Anon! I really appreciate that ur reading my fics even now (and re-reading, too??), honestly... way more than I can say <3 I wish I had a better answer for you though. I'd honestly love to go back to writing for JoJo, but my heart's really with OC stuff these days (oc x canon) and I, frankly... can't convince myself my ideas are worth writing even just for me. U know, perpetual battle against non-existent self esteem? hahaha I won't promise anything but DO know I think about it quite often, and I really miss being invested in JoJo like I used to be tbh! So again: the interest is extremely appreciated, I'm just sorry I can't give a more positive answer ^^;
#anon ask#reply#i so badly wish I could just say 'maybe someday!' but like... I haven't sat down and rewatched JoJo in like 3 years#it's not to say I don't have interest in it - it's just like... my brain's really dumb and I don't go back to things I used to love#I really can't explain it cuz it makes zero sense even to me - BUT ANYWAY I'm so happy those older fics are enjoyable to others!#I know I deleted a couple and I think about deleting them at times because I feel terrible for not keeping up on it#but I really mean it from the bottom of my heart - thank you for reaching out to even tell me this <3#maybe this should serve as a cautionary tale about trying to sure u have a healthy relationship with ur own art/writing#mine's def been going downhill and it gets harder and harder to write all the time as a result because everything has to be 'better'#it has to be 'perfect' it HAS to do 'well' and like... at the end of the day I SHOULD be writing for JUST me and I'm just... not.. you know#and all I end up with is expectations Im putting on myself that are literally unachievable and it's sapping all the joy out of it#but i am tangenting and rambling in the tags oh dear - AGAIN I LOVE AND APPRECIATE U AND UR KIND WORDS ANON <3#like I am going to be thinking about this ask for the next month at least I stg tysm

tig couple hcs part 2: avery and jameson
——————————————————————————
• they don’t have that similar music tastes, (as avery just kind of listens to the same 3 songs on repeat until she gets sick of them and looks for another 3 songs to listen to 😭☠️) but when they started dating, they started liking each others music. now when she’s in the car, avery tends to play jamesons playlists
• avery very much does not enjoy those events that alisa forces her to go to when her and jamie get in trouble, so jameson ends up being her hype man. he whispers chants in her ear, like “go avery! go avery! you can do this! go heiress!” so that she feels a bit better going (and so that she laughs bc jameson loves her laugh)
• her and jameson definitely did that “you better lock your phone” trend (the one where you scoop your partner up while running)
• they try the weirdest food combos when they get bored with max and xander, bc those two are weird food combo PROS.
• when they first started dating, avery tried to avoid pda. she would kind of avoid kissing him in front of his family ESPECIALLY his brothers because she felt awkward doing it at first. that was until she learned that they really didn’t care and now she’s fine with it
• i already said something like this in one of my other posts a while ago, but when jameson leaves his clothes in averys room and avery tells him, he always says “must be one of your other guys 😪😓😢”.
• because of this ⬆️, another awkward situation emerged at dinner:
• nan: “hey boy, what happened to that nice suit jacket i gave you for your birthday?”
• jameson: “oh, im not sure. maybe i left it in averys room?”
• avery: “oh yeah, you did. there are two on my dresser, so one should be it.”
• jameson, while smirking: “oh, i actually don’t think those are mine. must be one of your other guys that came over.” the table immediately goes quiet as the older residents of the hawthorne house shoot shocked and disgusted looks at avery. avery looks at him with a “really?” expression, and nash and xander, who knew what was going on, were dying laughing. even GRAYSON was smiling.
• jameson then goes into a deep explanation of the joke, and nan yells at him for putting that “poor girl” (avery) through that. he’s now banned from making jokes at the dinner table. 😪
• sometimes jameson sleep talks, and has like, ongoing convos with avery in his sleep. sometimes avery will lead it on bc she finds it funny, (he always asks her random stuff) but most times she just says “go to sleep, jamie” and he goes to sleep right away. (while making this i heard my dad snoring two rooms away 😔 HE IS SO LOUD!!)
• after nash proposed to libby, jameson made a joke before they went to sleep about proposing to avery, and she just laughed it off. but the next morning when she woke up and saw that he was still asleep, she whispered “i would love to get married to you someday” almost to herself, before kissing him on the forehead and snuggling into him. jameson never mentioned afterwards, but he heard what she said.
• avery actually loves the entire toy story saga and watched all the movies with jameson. they get some of libbys baked goods, tons of candy, and watch it. it used to be their alone time where they could snuggle up against each other and share kisses, but then by the time they were rewatching the second movie, xander found out that they watched those movies and busted in. now all the movie nights are jameson, avery….. and xander. ☠️
• avery wears his sweaters and jameson wears her necklaces
• on nights like mothers day, hannahs death date, or even fathers day they usually end the day with a movie while jameson distracts her by whispering sweet nothings in her ear and covering her with kisses 💗💗
• whenever they go to those fancy galas, they pass the time by looking at guests and creating “characters” for them. for example, jameson will look at a balding guy and say “he has bald spots because he was a lab rat for a mad scientist years ago, who used to zap his head with acids”. avery pretends to not like it but she actually does and laughs whenever he makes far fetched assumptions of the guests’ backstories.
• through out the grandest game, when they can’t sleep at night, they gossip about the contestants. yes, even AVERY does. they don’t ever say bad things about them and automatically assume the best, but they talk about tension/fueds between some. they talk about how it might play out, and sometimes jameson makes jokes about two of the contestants dating. yes, he would endlessly gossip about lyra and grayson. ☠️
——————————————————————————
#I STARTED THIS SOO LONG AGO AND FORGOT ABOUT IT SORRY 😭😭#the next one will be libby and nash#and the last one will be lyra and grayson!! 🫶#javery#avery and jameson#avery x jameson#the inheritance games#grayson hawthorne#the brothers hawthorne#jameson hawthorne#nash hawthorne#xander hawthorne#avery kylie grambs#libby grambs#phone girl#maxine liu

I’ve been obsessing about Crowley not taking his glasses off for that 1941 memory for ages 😂 thank you for articulating that so clearly. It’s so painful slowly realising some of the differences between how they’ve experienced all the flashbacks. I dread (a little) to think what happened next in 1941 especially with how they next meet in 1967 and are very fragile. Maybe one of the few times they are on a similar, painful, page?
It's one of those things that just kinda built in the back of my brain every time I looked at that scene until it just. turned into a full puzzle.
The thing is that what we have seen so far does not explain the way they behave in 1967 and it's honestly driving me insane when I think about it too much. Because they're not on the same page in 1967!
When Aziraphale says no to a lift and then tells Crowley to not look disappointed—yeah, there's disappointment, but he is mainly surprised. He expected Aziraphale to say yes to a drive.
Maybe Crowley is the one who pulled the breaks in '41 and thinks that Aziraphale still wants him to initiate something, so when he immediately puts up walls instead he doesn't understand why.
OR actually, after another rewatch (or five) of that scene, let's say Aziraphale rejected Crowley in '41 since Crowley seems somewhat cold-ish right up until the holy water shows up. Then he does a complete 180 and is suddenly very soft, he keeps looking at Aziraphale (who is now looking AWAY after keeping his eyes on him before that), and seeing the holy water as a peace offering, offers a lift in return.
To Crowley, the holy water is an apology, an I'm sorry I rejected you (or whatever went down), so he thinks it is also Aziraphale saying he's ready now—and then he makes it very clear that he still isn't. Bringing up the Ritz with "perhaps" and "someday", and so Crowley tries to compromise.
"Anywhere you wanna go" is please, just give me something here, angel, and when Aziraphale looks at him NOW, he KEEPS looking at him, and his eyes flit between Crowley's glasses and his lips. Aziraphale looks and he hesitates, and then rejects him again.
"You go too fast for me Crowley" is so fucking painful, and there's so much in that one sentence, but it is also quite literal in regards to time. Aziraphale is literally 105 years behind because that's when Crowley asked for holy water and said no—he's giving him the water in 1967 when it should have been in 1862.
They have somehow once again ended up living on parallel but displaced planes of existence.
Sorry, this ended up being way longer than intended because you magically compelled me to go look at the 1967 clip and it all spiraled from there jshdkad
In conclusion, Neil i NEED to know what happened.

@severeannoyance
its so funny that stephen maturin lays eyes on jack aubrey and is, furiously, aware that this is one of the stupidest and stubbornest men to ever live. he hates him on sight... and almost immediately afterwards is like. well i suppose i just have to be fucking in love with him
tfw you're an emaciated caffeinated cocaine addict who is obsessed with birds and bugs and medicine and languages and everything else there is in the world to study and then some great bear comes in who's simultaneously utterly ignorant and also a master tactician
your whole libido latches onto him and worse than that its not even just his body because hes a MUSICIAN and hes KIND despite being bull-headed and he asks about your interests even though he doesn't understand any of them and you're in love with him, and you're like
there you are just going about your life and this fat hunk of muscle and mutton says "god, i wish i'd thought to kidnap you" and you go "excuse me?" and he goes "well there's be weird fish, and also, maybe money!" and you're like. well kidnap me then big boy let's go

Hi Sabezra community.
Am I an English speaker? No. That's why I apologize in advance for the crimes against the English language that I'm going to commit next. But I still hope you can understand me. I'm not even sure anyone will see this.
It's been a while since I came here to find people who love the same things as me. Like a refuge from the outside world. I planned to post something only when I had something interesting to share with you all, like a video edit or fanart. Things so we could have fun together. The current circumstances didn't allow me to do anything for now, so I was just following things as a spectator.
Seeing all this ship war going on, made me feel like I wanted to get away from all social media, so I wouldn't see these things anymore. I also felt scared to express my love for this ship too. I'm scared to post this now.
Even my mother noticed that something was bothering me. She asked me several times what I had. I didn't want to tell her, because she's also a Star Wars fan and I don't want her to know everything that's going on. I want her to continue watching our favorite shows without thinking about negative things.
I want to get the hell away from it all, but for once, I would like to post this to all the Sabezra shippers who are receiving free hate. I think you guys need some love after suffering so much hate and I need to get out how I'm feeling. Because that's all I can do for now.
This whole time, I saw your fanart, I saw your video edits and I read many of the beautiful fanfics you wrote (I confess that I haven't read them all yet, it's due to lack of time, but I loved everything I read).
I see everyone putting so much love into what they do. And I can't ask you to continue, because I myself don't know if I'll ever be able to post anything in the future. But to be honest, I don't want you to stop. Am I being cowardly and selfish? Perhaps, but it's the truth.
But I'm here to remind you that not all Sabezra shippers are so active on social media, but we exist.
I've been a Star Wars fan for a few years and only watched Rebels during the pandemic. I started shipping Sabezra since then.
I was so happy that the Ahsoka series exists. And now I couldn't even watch Ahsoka or Rebels (I tend to rewatch the things I like many times). Because every time I try to watch it I'm reminded of this whole ship war that's going on.
So I decided to talk to a friend. He is also a Star Wars fan (and a fan of Rebels, which I recommended to him), but he doesn't follow things that happen on social media. We always talk about Star Wars, but we never talked about ships. But today I asked him what he thought of Ezra and Sabine.
He is my childhood friend and we practically grew up together, so I thought: "If he sees Sabine and Ezra as just friends/siblings, just like he and I are, maybe I'm seeing too much in the interactions between Sabine and Ezra and and I should just stop shipping them."
But to my surprise he also ships Sabezra. He said that you can see in the exchange of looks between them that there is something (In fact, my friend and I never look at each other the same way Sabine and Ezra look at each other). And he thinks Sabine is in love with Ezra.
The same case happens with my mother, who also loves Rebels and watches everything from SW since when she was young, but without following all the discussions that happen on the internet. When we watched Ahsoka, she said she thought Sabine liked Ezra since Rebels. She said this without me saying anything about shipping them. And when I asked her if she thought it was wrong to ship them, she said no and said she thinks they will be together someday. (I know, this may never happen, but hearing this from my mom warmed my little heart)
Even a friend of mine who isn't a fan, just watches casually, asked me if Sabine had a crush on Ezra.
Talking to these people from outside made me feel better, because this may not have been the intention of Dave and the others, but you can see that, based on common sense, no one can blame us for shipping them, it seems natural to many people. And not all Sabezra Shippers can be seen expressing this around.
I have nothing against anyone who ships wolfwren. But I won't lie and say I wasn't sad that the cast supported it so openly, while we are accepting crumbs. I confess that at first I felt betrayed. I haven't shipped Sabezra for as long as many of you, but I feel like I have. But thinking clearly, I understand them. Besides thinking that they can to ship whatever they want, just like us, I see it as a way for them to show support for the LGBT community. It is to be expected that they will do this. And it's okay.
Needless to say, I'm just posting this to express what I was feeling, I have no intention of hurting anyone. I am completely against any type of hate.
I don't regret watching Ahsoka, nor do I regret that the series existed. But I'm sorry to have seen so much fighting and hatred for something that was made to make us all happy. I wish I had followed everything in ignorance, as well as my friend and my mother. I think I'll start seeing things that way from now on.
I had a lot more to say, but I still don't know how to express them in words and this was turning into a mile long post. My first post and this was huge. I'm sorry for this. I needed to get these things out because I want to sleep and focus on the more important things I have to do.
And I want to be able to enjoy watching Ahsoka and Rebels again without feeling sick out remembering all the discussion surrounding it.
For now, I want you to know that I've been loving all the Sabezra content you've been posting. What I want to say is that I'm here and that I will continue to ship Sabezra until the end. Even if you don't see me interacting here.
Maybe later I'll regret posting this.
Maybe I'll delete it right away.
Maybe I'll never come around here again.
I don't know.
Too late. But everything is fine.
At least now you know I'm here.
I love you all.

As a fellow gilmore girls lover... I just rewatched the episode where sookie tells lorelai she could still have a happy ending with luke and she's like 💔 no, I don't want to wait 40 years and marry someone else and have kids with them and then have an ending, I want a middle! That's how I feel about buck and eddie, especially when someone says they could still be endgame years from now or off screen. Maybe, but I want to SEE it, I want them to live it all 😭 they deserve that.
Omg sameeee like I need to see it all
I don’t want it implied I don’t want a maybe I don’t want a time skip at the end of the show I want to experience it and see it all
Also imagine they do something like Eddie tells hen or bobby or OOO CHIM FOR PARALLEL REASONS about his feelings for buck but that he’s not planning on saying anything because Buck is with tommy
Then that person pulls a sookie and starts telling him that type of story abt maybe someday 40 years from now blah blah blah
And then he’s like☹️wait a damn minute I don’t wanna wait for a MAYBE 40 years from now or to see him marry someone else and then he goes and confesses but is like “i know you’re with tommy and I know I’m probably crazy for saying all this but I just i need to let you know that I am an option I have always been an option and I always will be but I don’t wanna wait 40 years I want a middle”
So its SIMILAR to the Luke and lorelai vibes but like twisted to buddie version
Other Luke and lorelai scenes I need to see some version of on buddie:
• Luke can waltz😏 because Ryan can in fact dance and I feel like they haven’t utilised that yet
• the mimi scene (where lorelai cries abt not thinking she’ll get it the whole package - love safety comfort- and Luke is like you will and she’s like you don’t know that and he’s like yes I do and she’s like how do you know that)
• the Luke and lorelai first kiss
• the wedding dance
• THE CHURCH BELL SCENE ABT LUKE MOVING IN WITH NICOLE AND LORELAI IS LIKE I DONT WANT YOU TO MOVE AND HES LIKE WHY AND SHES LIKE I JUST DONT AND THEN HE GOES SOFTER AND GOES WHY AND THEN THEY GET INTERRUPTED
• this man was at your party he was at the hospital he’s the male lead in every story you tell I’ve seen the way you look at him the way he looks at you I’m not a fool
• do you know that scene where Luke drives lorelai to the hospital when Richard collapsed on Christmas dinner and then she’s talking abt how she feels she should be thinking of all the happy memories they have but she can’t think of any THAT WOULD FIT SO WELL WITH BUCKS RELATIONSHIP TO HIS PARENTS
• when sookie tells Luke the max/lorelai wedding is off and he legit brightens up and gives free coffee to everyone in the diner or something
• literally any Luke and lorelai scene because they are the blueprint
Edit:
THE HOROSCOPE EXCEPT INSTEAD OF A HOROSCOPE ITS THE RECIEPT FROM WHEN THEY WENT TO DINNER AFTER THE GRENADE IN THE LEG THING
Also the “i just want you to know I’m all in”

From A Certain Point of View
I managed to rewatch "Double Dipper" in its entirety, and was inspired to try my hand at recreating a scene from the point of view of one of the clones. Specifically, from the point of view of Dipper Three, later known as Tracey. Paper Jam Dipper's dialogue and maybe half the rest of the dialogue is transcribed from the cinestory comic. Enjoy!
The high-pitched humming which filled his ears ended in a sort of shtunk noise, and Dipper had just enough time to notice how weird the ceiling looked from his current point of view before he felt himself falling. Lightly, lightly falling. Drifting, really, for the few feet between the printer tray and the floor of Stan’s office.
And then, all at once, he could see his own nose again. A moment later, the ceiling started looking normal as his eyes blossomed into 3D form and Dipper stood up, shaking away the excess paper which had encased his limbs. Tyrone grinned at him and gave him a thumbs up, which he returned.
“’ Sup, man?” they asked each other simultaneously, and then they both laughed.
The copier lid screeched, and Dipper Pines clambered down on the floor to beam at Dipper and Tyrone. It occurred to Dipper that one of them was really, really going to need to come up with a third name they liked. Maybe he should be Mason? It felt kind of weird, plus he knew Dipper – the original Dipper – was sort of thinking about maybe calling himself that someday, too, maybe in high school or something, but he was going to give himself a headache at this rate, if he didn’t come up with something to call one of them other than Dipper….
“Eugh,” he said in the meantime. “Fair warning, guys, that jealousy fantasy you just had? It’s not any more fun remembering it than it was seeing it.”
“I know, right?” chorused the other boys, and Dipper felt a fleeting sense of dislocation – he was the Dipper who was out of step, but they were all Dipper, so how could they not be in step? They’d all just had the same memory, simultaneously, for crying out loud –
The Other Dipper made a face. “Our entire plan – “ the long to-do list Dipper had written earlier – “will be completely wrecked if anything like that ever happens in real life – “
“ – so we’ve got to get rid of Robbie,” Tyrone finished for him.
“And that’s where you come in, number three,” said Other Dipper, leaning forward to scribble a 3 on the front of Dipper’s hat.
The other two were still smiling, but Dipper saw a problem that neither of them seemed to have considered, and frowned around another fleeting moment of desynchronization as he pointed it out to them. “But what if Robbie catches me?” he complained. He glanced at Tyrone for backup. “I’ll be all alone.”
“Yeah, he makes a good point,” said the clone with a 2 on his hat, but Other Dipper was already nodding.
“Okay, one more,” he agreed with them both. “One more clone.” He lifted the copy machine lid and scrambled up onto the copying surface once more. “Four Dippers. This is a four-Dipper plan.”
The machine hummed again, and light washed over Dipper’s face as he perched beside Tyrone on the desk, just as it must have washed over Tyrone’s face alone only moments before, though Dipper hadn’t been able to see that at the time. This time, though, another perfect copy of them all didn’t fall to the floor immediately, and instead, the humming of the machine was overridden by a horrific screeching.
“Uh-oh,” said Tyrone, jumping down to help pull Four out of the machine, seemingly ignoring how it was smoking and smoke meant at least the potential for fire and fire probably wasn't good for any of them. “Paper jam….”
Tyrone glanced back over his shoulder with a slight smile at Dipper, which was why Dipper was, by a millisecond, the first one to yell “aah!” in surprise as something that nobody could ever mistake for Dipper began to materialize in front of him.
“Nyanyanya!” wailed the misshapen face rising from the crumpled sheet which had apparently not been improved all that much by Tyrone’s efforts to smooth it out on the floor before Number Four could rise. “Nyanya-Naaaaa-naaaa!”
Dipper had no idea what that meant, but he was pretty sure he agreed. Or would have, anyway, if he had been a paper jam clone of himself – but he’d never been a paper jam copy of himself, so –
“Aaxuxaa!” exclaimed Paper Jam Dipper, laboriously pulling himself into a sitting position beside Tyrone, who was still kneeling on the floor, paralyzed, like Dipper and Other Dipper, with shock. “Ssuaa-aaaa!”
The three normal Dippers all glanced at each other at the same time, and Dipper knew the other two were thinking the same thing that he was: if nothing else, this Dipper would sure be able to act as a distraction, all right….
“C’mon!” he exclaimed when neither of them seemed like he was likely to get there any time soon. He understood why Tyrone and Other Dipper were a logical team, it had been their joint decision to even print him in the first place, but - “You’re not gonna make me partner up with him, are you?”
He expected Tyrone to immediately agree with him again, so it came as a surprise when the other clone glared at him, getting onto his feet and carefully lifting the Unidentified Dipper-Like Object from the floor.
“Ssshh!” snapped Tyrone. “Don’t be rude!” He turned back to look at the mangled version of them in his arms. “Hey, buddy,” he said kindly to it, further continuing to act like he thought it could even understand him, even though they had absolutely no evidence to support that idea right now. “Hey, it’s okay – “
“Aaaa-kkkkxx-kkkkxxx-a!” gabbled Paper Jam Dipper. Dipper, out of options for clone solidarity at this point, looked instead at Other Dipper, who was still seated on the copying machine and who nodded.
“Okay, just one more clone,” he agreed, lying down and pulling the lid as far shut as it would go for a third time while Paper Jam Dipper somehow maneuvered its hands well enough to grab the bill of Tyrone’s hat and pull it down over the other clone’s eyes.
While Tyrone scrambled around trying to push it back again without dropping P.J., Dipper hopped down from the desk to hover anxiously over the output tray as the copier hummed back to life again. This time, though, there were no screeches or puffs of smoke, and he caught and then quickly smoothed out a sheet of paper which held another perfect replica of the boy on the copier, only distinguishable from Dipper and Other Dipper because he was currently two-dimensional and in black and white.
“Whew,” said the latest Dipper as he stood, shaking off his excess paper as he finished assuming his third dimension and the ink on his body dried into the standard colors they all had. “Am I glad that worked better than the last time….”
“Dude!” complained Tyrone. “You’re supposed to be us, why are you both being like this?”
Dipper exchanged a glance with his newest clone and then said, “be-cause you’re also thinking the same thing and just not saying it because you were printed off before we realized a magic copier could paper jam?” he hazarded a guess. “Unlike us?” he pointed to New Dipper.
“Yes I am!” said Tyrone. “And so’s he – “ Paper Jam Dipper shrieked again – “and him, too.” This with a nod to the original Dipper, who was once again getting down and opening his Sharpie in order to write a big 4 on the blank patch of New Dipper’s hat. “We’re all we, guys, come on.”
“We are?” said New Dipper. “I – “
“ – don’t have time to have an existential crisis right now,” said Other Dipper, snapping the cap back onto the Sharpie with a click that seemed meant to cut off that line of thought. “We’ve got to get moving. You’re good with the plan, Dipper Four?”
“Of course I am, Dipper One,” said the newly-christened Dipper Four, with a bit of an eye roll. “I made the plan, remember?” They all laughed, and Dipper Four grinned, clearly pleased with himself for restoring the good mood. “So, how many Dippers do we think it takes to change a lightbulb?”
“Probably more than it takes to steal a dirt bike,” said Dipper, before the new Dipper could embarrass themselves any further. “Since that’s just the two of us. C’mon, let’s get this show on the road.”

It's also the inspiration for the title of one of my all-time favorite youtube miniseries, The Guards Themselves!
It's a fun little "the superheroes are being used by the rich to further their agendas and the anarchist supervillains have a point actually, though they're not exactly the most skilled supers ever tbh" type adventure with lots of fun memorable characters. It was basically the creator's film school senior project and I think it's pretty well done as low-budget youtube movies go.
But yeah, in this case, the guards are variously the superheroes, the private security force employed by Meyer (the primary rich guy in question), and the anarchists, and there's plenty of exploration of the guarding of the guards themselves!
Also Kyle (the main creator)'s best friend Ian actually teaches Latin--he plays Big Fist in this--and I'm pretty sure he had a hand in the title.

(General warning for some pretty gratuitous gun violence, but not too much in the way of blood)
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes ?
"Who will guard the guards themselves?" / "Who will watch the watchmen ?"
It was found in Juvenal's Satires but it may have been added by someone else
Nowadays, it's sually used in relation to tyrannic governments or corrupted law enforcers but it was originally about the moral behavior of wives and eunuchs.
"Who watches the Watchmen ?" is a phrase used several times in Watchmen
In Terry Pratchett's Watch series (Discworld universe), it's super important and is an acab phrase of sorts used by Commander Vimes, the cop main character to keep himself in check in a pre-acab world when these books were published
*Note : the Discworld propaganda isn't mine. I had actually cut parts of my original list of phrases before letting you make picks and this one hadn't made the cut. However, one of you had asked about this specific phrase and I elected to add it to the form
If you want to submit a new form to vote for it, go for it. Same thing if you've changed your mind about other phrases, but please try to remember which ones you have already voted for
#it's kind of silly but I do love this#I haven't been properly obsessed with it in some time now but when I first found it I watched it like 20 times on repeat#and started multiple fanfics of it#I actually also put together a playlist of its soundtrack and got tweeted by the band whose music is mainly featured in it#and I was one of the financial backers for the sequel which is. well. several years behind schedule now#but Kyle's having a time of it I guess so I understand. I'm patient#*gently pokes Kyle with a stick* lol jk. sorry Kyle#I did leave their Patreon a while ago but I'm still a subscriber#anyways I still recommend this series pretty enthusiastically#the Guards Themselves#Door Monster#media that really stuck with me in the twenty teens#I haven't watched it in a few years now.. maybe I should rewatch again#TGT#TGT2#someday#yeah I'll put this on main. why not#I think this was my main obsession around 2017 or so before Gotham took over my brain#anyways I might have to vote for this phrase just because of this series
