It's been years since the show ended and it only occurs to me now that "Wouldn't you trade it all to have Thomas Hamilton back again?"

is answered in 4.09 in two little words, "No! Don't!", and one gunshot.

Because when it comes down to it, Flint literally cannot kill the man he loves even if it costs him the war.

*chanting* if you didn't see the body the character isn't dead, if you didn't see the body the character isn't dead, if you didn't see the body the character isn't dead

I was hitting some art block so I felt like drawing some fanart of @abd-illustrates’ Heartless characters!

I realized I never actually watched the final installment of the Concept Corner series, so that’s what I had playing when sketching these. It’s just so fun listening to the brainstorming and cool character connections

This is how they survive. You must know this. You're too smart not to know this.

I'm so sorry if you've discussed this before, but I've been curious about it for a moment and wanted to pick your brain: What was the inspiration of using Flint Marko as the influence in Peter's life in prison and out of it? Logically of course it really does make sense, Flint is one of the few of the rouges gallery that would be just morally gray enough to work, but I was curious if you had a specific reason or inspiration from anything in particular to make it Flint!

I chose Flint for several reasons!

Peter was only 16 when he went to Rykers, which is an extremely impressionable age-- and I needed someone who could mentor him/form a bond without completely corrupting him. Most of the other criminals in his rogue's gallery have VERY strong/insane personalities.

Flint's a career criminal, but still fairly low on the totem pole in terms of ambition and intelligence. He's both versed in criminal activity but also has enough humanity at this stage to want to look out for someone like Peter. That made him the perfect person to take Peter under his wing without completely dominating his personality.

Anyone else might have completely overshadowed Peter, but with Flint, he could form more of a brotherly relationship to than a subservient one.

He's someone Peter can have attachment to outside of prison (enough to agree to help Flint on a job) while also being able to outgrow him in the long run. He's also small time enough to let Peter get his feet wet but not cross the line in regards to committing crime.

And, of course, because he becomes part of Spider-Man’s rogues gallery, there’s lots of room for angst there!!

Thank you so much for asking! I really love these types of questions because I can get into the lore! <3 <3

okay, when was someone going to tell me that

oh, idk, steven started at 19, burgh has a younger sister, clay actually isn't born american, skyla's whole fam thing and ELESA IS 15???? (even younger than skyla like wtf???)

wikstrom SAYING that he only wears that suit in pokemon battles but i've never seen his casual wear, malva being pr for flare lol, drasna selling dragon merch + great family lore if you want to know, siebold having to third-wheel lysandre and sycamore while eating (move aside malva, you're not the only elite 4 dealing with this) and 20?? YEARS OLD?? DIANTHA????????????

(way too many men in kalos are getting ladies, c'mon)

ethan being into history is such a neat detail hmmm, idk much of the frontier brains ngl, and we've finally got the region for looker and it's... hoenn??? you know what, makes sense with his chaotic vibes so i'll take it (throws away unova taped to a rock behind my back). also he's abolsutely cheating we all see that he's just relying on knowing us as protags, should've known smh

(um i think someone said that 'caitlin' should've been anabel but idk)

oh and the last one is charon, if we care about how much of a loser he really is. forget about birch and the poochyena, this guy is the lowest heh. imagine being charon (please don't).

(when the protags of johto are the same age as clemont lol) (yeah i know there are years between those events just let me have this)

and last but not least:

aaron 🤝 valerie: wanting to be pokemon (and ig gotta toss in shauntal with the ao3 writer gift heh, don't know if they would commission her or stay away), bertha's description???? i love flint just saying, cynthia 👀👀 is absolutely doing something illegal 👀👀, roark is WHAT??? (child labour laws in sinnoh must be lax ngl), maylene as well???? fantina watching scary movies is something i'll have to incorporate into my worldview and bryon?? are you okay??

so yeah. credit goes to @/KuroBlitz96 on the twitter/x for having this up, i'm just here to project sheer surprise at this massive dump of ages... my thoughts on pokemon have completely turned on its head once more lol (this is fine)
