I want you to know you inspired me to write nsfw for the first time in years for danny and vlad
Oh my god??? 😭
Simply me being able to inspire anyone in any capacity is such a feat in my eyes, but inspiring you to write nsfw and after such a long hiatus is a whole other level of personal fulfillment that I didn't even know I was able to attain. Like... this is insane. I have to mark this day down on my calendar.
You really have no idea how happy I am to know this. Thank you so, so much for sharing this with me 🥺❤️
#now i must know anon...#is your project one in the making?#is your work out there in the wild?#is it... toxic? 😏#so many questions...

do skully have pokemon?
Pumpkaboo is the obvious one, but y'know, sometimes the obvious one is the right one! (we'll say SUPER SIZE Pumpkaboo, just for fun. big pumpkin for big skeleton boy.) and another person actually also suggested Greavard, which I somehow hadn't considered, but feels so perfect that I feel like I should have. dangit.
(they can also have little Nightmare Suit costumes :D)

yk its kinda weird how Killer is aways someone's something (Chara's toy, Nightmare's Dog, Color's Friend) Will this guy ever have his own identity or is his character only based on being a victim/object? Its starting to get boring tbh #freekiller
Wow it’s as if conditioning and dehumanization does that to people and maybe the fandom should actually try to explore it and let him start to heal and build an identity that he’s happy with instead of the one he was molded into being and had imposed on him by external forces or the one that was stolen from him completely instead of focusing on who gets to fuck him this time.
#howlsasks#anon tag#must I remind you that most of killers canon story is him still actively being traumatized.#it’s almost like..#the killer identity was formed..#after completely breaking a man down until he didn’t even know who or what the fuck he was anymore.#I can’t tell what the tone of this was supposed to be#but let’s not pretend as if the fandom isn’t just now acknowledging that was happened to killer was coercion and trafficking#killer sans#utmv#sans au#sans aus#killer!sans

hypothetically does one have to be like, good at drawing to play gartic phone in the discord. I've played the game before but silly style
Considering how bad I am at drawing under pressure and how all my art skills fly out the window the second I'm told to draw something in a certain amount of time - don't worry any art level will be welcome in the discord the only prerequisite for joining will be a willingness to play art games
#ask#anon#and you know all the other basic rules of being in a discord#which im trying to figure out right now#Do you think i can add must have at least a slight distaste for the English as a discord rule?#but yeah i just want to play art games but dont currently have enough people who i know for sure would enjoy it#so making a discord it is

wait idk anything about the tevis’— why would tommy tevis call dick his son? would you be willing to give a quick rundown
After Dick failed to get himself incarcerated, he became an enforcer for a mob boss named Tommy Tevis. Tommy took Dick in and made him part of his family. Tommy considered him an honorary son and thought very highly of him.

Nightwing (Vol. 2) #107
He even told Dick that everything he had (his home, his reputation, his family, etc.) was Dick's as well. Lynette, Tommy's wife, told Dick that Tommy would let Dick do anything. The whole family loved Dick, including Tommy's 15 year old daughter, Sophia. Sophia actually had a crush on Dick, but Dick acted like an older brother to her, helping her with her homework and such.
While Dick was away from the family for a few days, the cops busted into the Tevis's home. Lynette got killed in the gunfire, Tommy got taken to jail, and Sophia got taken in by the state.
Dick, while mentoring Rose, broke Sophia out of the state home. He got Sophia to help him with the mob. Then, when Chemo fell on Bludhaven, Dick saved Sophia and left her with Amy. When they reunited at the hospital, Dick asked Sophia to leave the mob behind and join a boarding school.
So, yeah, that's Dick's relationship with the Tevis family.
#no but i love when tommy tells dick that bruce must be proud of him--and dick gets this shameful look on his face and stays quiet#and then tommy playfully pinches dick's cheek and tells him not to worry bc he thinks dick is great/he thinks highly of dick#i mean say what you want about tommy being in the mob and all--but he does seem to be tuned in to dick's emotions#and when the other mobster was kinda grilling dick about being bruce's heir--tommy was frowning real hard on dick's behalf#and he later checked in with dick and was like hey that was kind of shitty and i don't want you feeling like your back's against the wall#like idk it just shows that tommy does care about dick--and he knows bruce is a sore spot for dick#dick--on the other hand--is a bit more emotionally distant from the family#he's just gone through some very traumatizing events and now he's doing some morally questionable things#so there's no way he can be truly authentic with the family when his whole lifestyle is now inauthentic to who he really is#and we see that when dick goes on a job that has a kid involved--and he didn't know there would be a kid there#and he gets very upset about a gun being involved and having a kid watch her dad get beat#so even though he might care about the tevis family--i don't think he could ever feel Truly part of the family#honestly wish a writer would bring back sophia though. would be nice to see dick still in contact with her#Dick Grayson#Tommy Tevis#anon

what is your favorite thing about charles and your favorite thing about erik? separately, as in what you like most about their characters :]
a devious question this one is, my friend!!! it's hard enough for me to explain my thoughts cohesively, but having to pick ONE thing i particularly love is difficult. with characters like charles and erik, theres been so much done with their characters over the decades and so they have so many components to them that make them so interesting and fun to observe. BUT I TRY FOR YOU TODAY. under the cut i kinda ramble and the size of this text box makin me anxious
i think if i were to be simple and broad, what i enjoy most about charles is his determination to help others, even if he isn't really thanked and/or if people don't even like him. ofc, this isn't to say he hasn't done wrong- to be honest, the fact he does wrong/questionable things at times is another aspect of him i really enjoy, maybe because- broadly speaking- he's meant to be altruistic (intent vs outcome and all that). i don't know if that's super exciting to most people, but it is for me
as for erik, my reason for liking him is easier to explain tbh. To Be Simple And Broad, his progression from villain to antihero over the decades has been fun to observe (as much as i have so far anyhow) and analyze. i think to be a bit more specific, him using his rage and pain as justifications for his villainous actions is definitely what compels me the most: hurt people hurt and the sort, an idea i've always found interesting (something something vicious cycles and the like). yet now, he recognizes this wasn't really. A Just Thing To Do and is beginning to change that, which i enjoy
#snap chats#may you forgive me anon i always feel awkward explaining things AVELKJEAKLJ#i feel esp awkward cause i haven't read toooo much of the comics yet- like ive read. an ok amount so far krakoa wise#can you guys tell im fighting god himself to Not write a fuckin. NOVEL#im so sorry i have an over-explaining problem my mom was mean to me growing up but anyways#i definitely want to read more and more outside krakoa. the more i read the more im fascinated by these two and their history#but to continue my prattling. as if the three paragraphs above arent enough This Is Not A Thesis RELAX#i think a. 'poignant' moment i think adds to what i like about charles too is that soliloquy where he recognizes people dont like him#yet he could always be worse- like if he's bad now to others imagine if he really just said Fuck It All#it's simple but so am i whaddyagonnadoboutit. i mean that point itself could be discussed but i'm trying to keep this brief bear with me#i so bad want to know what issue that's from tho all i know is that it's from krakoa but i neeeed the whole context#i think like. an additional bullet point to charles i also like is his loneliness#and i say this cause- I Say From My Amateur-Psychology Armchair- it's a component of why he's so earnest to help#but im keeping this point in the tags until i can confidently verify that with myself after some more reading#Unfortunately a favorite pass time of mine is psychoanalyzing characters like why else you think i major in psychology smh#im going to force myself to cap the post here because i ended up typing like 20 more tags just rambling#and as i said id like to keep this simple and clean !!!!! i have sat here for like four hours answering this ngl#ignore the fact half that time was spent getting distracted by solitaire and riffling cards ok I Am Very Easily Distracted#but fr when it comes to charles and erik- charles esp imo#i feel like i need to write a whole paper just so i can mention the nuances of the characters and like. EVERYTHING#because again six decades is A Lot of time for writing decisions to be made and for their characters to change over time#im a glazer but i wanna be a nuanced glazer yk. is that glazing at that point-- w/e anyway#its a lot. so today you will have to tolerate a very Blah answer from me which i must apologize for#down the line once ive read a comfortable amount more varying from multiple eras maybe ill revisit this question more in depth#as of right now tho .... chat i wanna get legion of x so bad i skimmed it and hhhhhhhhim gonna throw UP#i need to shake charles like a ragdoll BUT ANYWAY. bye bye for now lovelies !!!!!!!#please forgive me if i didnt answer your question efficiently ..#here i am saying i wanted to keep the tag count brief and yet !!! jesus christ. shut up My God I REACHED THE TAG LIMIT

Hello! I hope you are well, you modern day Shakespeare you :D
Hypothetically, in your AU, do you think that Jeff would ever find somebody he actually likes romantically (if that’s even possible) as opposed to the way he just takes advantage of Nina? And if so, what would this entail?
UUMMMMMM hmmm.... no.
okay i lied yes its totally possible. BUT AGAIN i make jeff a VERY one dimensional character, his entire purpose is for nina, jane, and liu have a story to revolve around. I’ll try to talk abt it but it’s really just me saying not good..
in the event he did find someone he liked, he just kinda...hm... ok this is really hard wow... ive literally never once sat and thought about him in a relationship ......... idk i think he'd be... I LITERJHAGHKIH I CANT
depends. hes just some guy really and i do think he's very entitled, egotistical, and nina really helped fuck up his self importance b/c now he fully expects to be taken care of while he does fuck all. maybe he'd hold a hand or two. kinda sleezy. 'wyd.. pics?' at 3am. LMFAOOO HES SO UNPLEASANT IM SORRY ANON. prob would need some other hardass who's like "watch ur fucking mouth" but then he'd get mad and ghost them for 'being a bitch.' but if he had some rando sweetheart it wouldnt work either cuz he'd then never change. dunno... dunno.... i dont often think about them in relationships unless im actively shipping and even then i never put my ships into canon relationships... he's capable of romantic attraction but he's not even a good friend, much less a good boyfriend. he's lucky ben just doesnt care how people treat him, otherwise he'd have nobody
#UR SO KIND CALLING ME SHAKESPEARE AND THEN IM OUT HERE REPLYING LIKE 'well i do not know'#LMFOAOFNJF#IM SORRYYYY#TY ANON#ASKS#ben is literally the only person who jeff would even bother listening to#but bens ... ben.... and isnt gonna be like#'oh jeff...you have to change...!! you cant be such an awful boyfriend..! you must get flowers NOW..!'

hey I just had a question, it seems like some people are convinced ww will have Vash's jacket in tristamp s2, is that just a popular headcanon or is it based on something?
TL;DR: Mostly just a popular headcanon! (At least, so far as I'm aware.)
The theory/headcanon comes from this concept art (grabbing this led me down a concept art rabbit hole and there's so much I haven't seen before, so I'll make a different post about that once I find HQ versions of them):
Which seems to be Wolfwood because *waves vaguely at the Punisher* you know. Staff have mentioned a few times now that they felt kinda bad because some of the concept art that they'd shown before airing was more from season two onwards (the "final phase") which led to everyone going hmmm... That could be Vash's jacket, couldn't it?
Given the themes of human connection and love (especially for Vash letting himself get really attached to ordinary folk for the first time in 150 years, as said by Nightow), and how devastating it would be to realize that Wolfwood of all people let himself mourn and miss Vash, that his life changed that much, well, I really like the theory. But it's just a theory! :D
#Trigun#Trigun Stampede#Tristamp#Trigun Meta#My Trigun Meta#Ask#Anon#Orange and Nightow: Hey how can we make this story more fucked up and hurtful and grief-ful? I KNOW!#<- What I imagine the convo must have been like#Also I see the other asks but I seriously need a break from that stuff--stopping the panic attacks and maybe being able to sleep tonight#Is kinda my priority rn#Only fun/silly Trigun asks for me for now

i already know what the story behind the picture is but please explain it anyway we need to educate the masses
oh my god thank you for enabling me ive been thinking about this all day. regarding this post i made yesterday and this classic image (which i actually just found out was posted seven years ago today!)

basically as can be read in the post at BigFest in 2016 somebody had what i believe was a fan-made prop based on the laptop from season 2 of gravity falls. alex hirsch attended this convention and decided to type in the password to the laptop. we never learned the password in the show so lots of people were excited to find out!
a HUGE thing to note here is that journal 3 was still months away from releasing and in fact while a couple pages had been released as promotional material it was still being worked on until, like... gosh i wanna say may is when they finally started printing it? don't quote me on that though my point is that this was all taking place pre-journal 3 and, therefore, many fans were still operating under the (sensible) impression that the laptop which
had been designed by fiddleford
had been built by fiddleford
had fiddleford's name on it
said "PROPERTY OF F" on it (at this point it had been established through promo images that "F" referred to fiddleford)
was assumed to be fiddleford's by, like, four different main characters
was given to and used by fiddleford following s2e7
fiddleford presumably knew the password to
would also belong to fiddleford. right? i mean logically. logically, guys.
so when alex hirsch revealed that the password had been "STANFORD" all along, people thought that was a little bit... well
of course, a couple months later journal 3 would be published and it would say that the laptop had actually been STANFORD'S, not fiddleford's, and that he had made the password his own name. so technically i lied in my earlier post, there IS a heterosexual explanation for this, but imo it's still bullshit. like sorry i don't believe for a fucking second that stanford "i need to encode all of my messages in multiple ciphers and write in invisible ink" pines would ever make a password as simple as his own name. he wouldve picked like something with six different layers of alternate meanings and also put it through atbash at the VERY least. also as i listed above there is a LOT of evidence which would support the laptop belonging to fiddleford, as opposed to ford, which has this random retcon (and like... some of the computer keys are different colors? i guess?? idk that bit was stupid) as its only supporting evidence.
my theory is that, while writing the show, alex and the other writers had intended for the laptop to belong to fiddleford, but for whatever reason, when they were writing the book, they decided to make it ford's instead. i want to make clear that i DON'T think this swap was motivated by homophobia, or as a reaction to seeing people interpret the password in a gay way. by the time that this photo was taken several promotional journal pages had been released, so it's safe to say that even if they were still adding the finishing touches to the book, it was pretty much in its final stage and in fact might have already started printing (i think the first photos we see of the book itself were posted like a week or two after bigfest). so to assume that there's a correlation there is both unfounded and extremely unlikely.
now, the stargazing scene reprint, on the other hand
#long post#gravity falls#fiddauthor#<- why the fuck not. it's midnight no one can judge me#why are you as a man making your computer password the name of the man you live alone in the woods with#sorry anon i doubt think this is what you had in mind when you said “explain it” LMAO#tales of the wild zeep#uhhh a couple other notes#1. i do not know who made the laptop prop at bigfest. i assumed it was a fan but i wasn't there i really don't know#2. i said may is when they started printing the book but i have literally no source for that#it is a guess based on when promotional photos were being posted#3. i say “fiddleford presumably knew the password to [the laptop]” and i just wanted to explain my reasoning there#basically in s2e10 fiddleford says that he “fixed” the laptop and is shown using it#we also see it at the start of the following episode being used to monitor the activity of the portal#now. i am not a computer engineer. i am mediocre with computers at best.#but based on what i have been told. when you are faced with a password screen. there are two ways to proceed#one way is to reset the computer's hard drive entirely‚ to... “erase its memory” if you will#however this would result in one being unable to access any of the information which had previously been stored there#considering that we see fiddleford using the laptop to monitor the portal's activity i believe that its files must have been intact#so we can rule out resetting as an option#the other way to proceed is by. um. knowing the password. and entering it#so THAT'S why i say that he PRESUMABLY knew the password.#now it's entirely possible that he was able to hack into the laptop or something. he is a mechanical genius and he built it after all#i'm just saying that i think it's far more likely that he just. knew the password.#which is honestly really funny and still kind of gay if you believe the whole “the laptop was actually ford's” thing#why are you as a man telling your computer password to the man you live alone in the woods with when you wont even write it in your diary#fucking apologies for this OCEAN of tags. ive done taxes all day im an adult im allowed to infodump about old hyperfixations as a treat
