Not Dead
(A Saving Grant Ward AU)
"Come on, Hill." Grant's face hurts, and he's tired. "Why'd you pull me out of the field? I mean, it wasn't for a history lesson."
Maria Hill looks away for a moment, takes a deeper breath than maybe necessary, says quietly, "You'll have to ask Coulson."
Grant stiffens, the cold finger of her words tracing still-tender scars, and he thins his lips, answers sharp. "Phil Coulson is dead."
Her gaze drops, and so does his stomach. A breath, as if to speak, before she sighs, shakes her head.
"Actually, no."
It isn't Maria who speaks, no, it's a voice he knows, the voice of his conscience and his comfort, a voice he's not supposed to be hearing, and he's on his feet before his training takes hold, keeps him from backing away.
There's a ghost in this room, stepping out of the shadows, Coulson looking him in the eye.
"I'm... not dead."
For a moment the world turns upside down, he can't breathe, his vision greys... Before he catches himself, turns away sharply. "Don't," and no matter how dead he tries to keep his voice, he hears the tremor. "Don't do this to me."
Maria avoids his gaze, crosses her arms over her chest, glares at the man who can't be Coulson. "Coulson! You were supposed to let me ease him into it."
Coulson sighs, like he used to sigh when he'd forgotten to buy the right kind of hot sauce on wing night, and was about to go get the keys and drive to the store right then, because Grant wouldn't eat his wings without it. An apology. "Sorry, I just couldn't wait to see you again. Also I think there's a bulb out back there. I wasn't trying to be that dramatic."
Grant snorts, he can't help shaking his head as he looks back at the man whose response to finding out an angry customer had hit Grant over the head with her purse was show up at her house and tell her she'd go to jail if she ever shopped at Walmart again. "Even got someone who talks like him," he says, anger starting to smolder in his gut. He was done, done his grieving, he'd sworn to live and look forward, to honour his dad's Coulson's legacy.
Phil is worried. He's been worrying over how to tell Grant since... Tahiti, he thinks, but, no, it had been too peaceful there to be worrying. So, at least since Fury had lifted the lockdown on him.
He remembers the day Lady had been killed by a car, the limp body in Grant's arms, and how Grant had screamed for him, called him 'dad' for the first time.
"Try to go easy on him," Maria had said.
He'd raised an eyebrow. "How so?"
She'd stopped in the hallway, frowned at him. "Coulson, he had to bury you. The only person he cares about, and he had to bury you. He took two weeks' vacation after the funeral."
Phil had frowned then too. "He took time off?"
"Yes! Two. Weeks. Disappeared, off the radar. No one knows where he went, or what he was doing. He's never said."
So yes, Phil's worried, watching the tense line of Grant's shoulders, the way his eyes say he doesn't believe yet, and he's getting angry about it.
"Grant," he says, and the other man startles. "I'm sorry. But it is me. No tricks, no lies."
Phil moves forward slowly, as if trying not to frighten a skittish animal. Grant says nothing, watching him with those burning eyes, until he reaches out, grips Grant's upper arm gently but firmly. The other man flinches, hard enough to make Phil's hand slide down to his elbow, but just as quickly he's bringing his own hand up to grab Phil's sleeve. His grip is fierce.
"See?" Phil says, trying to smile. "Real."
"You're dead," Grant says, firm. He can feel the warmth in the hand on his arm, pain gathering in his throat. "You died." And his voice cracks.
He wants to believe, he is believing.
"I was. I did. For seven minutes." Tiny uncomfortable shrug. "Didn't stick, I'm afraid."
Grant blinks in the face of a tombstone (PHILIP J COULSON) chiseled with words he'd agonized over, how to sum up the man who had saved him long before saving the world (A HERO GOING HOME). He'd run his fingers over sharp-edged epitaph (PSALM 91:4), glad when it cut, when cold stone drew warm blood.
He blinks again, stares into worried hazel eyes, grips flesh and bone, and oh...
"It's been seven months!" Anger, fresh pain erupting through the layers of cooled magma. "What the hell, Dad?!" He rips away, stalks across the room, turns back to glare. "You couldn't be bothered to call, to tell me?! In seven months? I thought– I thought I meant something to you!"
"Grant, you do, I swear." Guilt settles heavy on Phil's heart as he steps forward, reaching. "Fury had me on lockdown, and then you were in the field, and I didn't want to do this until I knew we'd have time."
"I buried you!"
Maria was right, Phil thinks. Grant stalks back toward him.
"And you wanna know what I did after? I put a gun in my mouth, because of you!"
Grant's in his face now, and Phil's stomach drops like he's just been pushed out of a plane.
"You know that place where we used to go fishing? That creek? Yeah, that's where I went. And I put a gun to my head. Because I couldn't– I couldn't– I didn't want to live without–"
There are tears in his eyes now, dampening the fire, and Phil reaches up, lays hand gentle on muscled shoulder.
"But you did," he says softly. "You did live. I'm proud of you, son." He puts special weight on the last word, deliberate. "And now we get another chance. I doubt I can make it up to you, but I want to be here for you. Will you let me at least have that?"
Grant's always been tall, chin up, spit blood, graceful in a cold sort of way. Phil thinks Rose is the only other who has seen that guard truly come down. It's falling now, Grant's head dropping to hide welling emotion, shoulders slumping under Phil's hands, and then it's as if Grant himself is falling, falling and reaching, but he's already caught, and Phil pulls him in, holds him tight as he crumbles.
Grant's grip on him is painfully fierce, but he takes it, he'll take anything for this man he'd watched grow up, from a messed up kid, to a hopeful young agent, to one of SHIELD's best.
"I'm sorry," he whispers. "I'm here."
Tall man, bent and bowed into his dad's embrace, Grant hides his face against Coulson's neck and sobs.
Maria slips out, leans back against the door, knuckles a few tears out of her eyes. She still thinks Coulson is making a mistake, selecting someone he's so close to for his new team; he's always avoided working with Grant for that reason. But any man would be changed by facing death, she figures. Not to mention facing things he didn't even remember. A wince at the thought of Grant finding out what had been done. Well, as long as all went according to plan, neither of them ever would.
Grant doesn't cry for long; that's never been his way. He lifts his head, eases back, takes Phil's offered handkerchief.
"You still carry these?" he asks hoarsely, blows his nose.
"What do you think I mop the blood up with?"
The same pointed humor, the way they always joked about close calls, and Grant's lungs feel like they have more room in his chest. He hands the crumpled cloth back, smirks at Coulson's little nose wrinkle. "And that's what saved you."
Coulson chuckles, the air in the room lifts. Grant's still unsteady, still taking it in. But he believes now.
"So how much time have we got?" he asks, sticks his hands in his pockets.
"Plenty." Phil smiles up at him, sun coming out to warm him again at last. "I'm putting together a long-term team, and Fury, well, he owes me plenty. So I get to pick anyone I want."
"Except her." Grant jerks his head toward the door, and he's grinning like an idiot, but he can't help it. On a team with Coulson? For the foreseeable future? Oh, he is so ready.
"Anyone I outrank," Phil corrects himself, eyes laughing back. "You'll be getting a promotion to Level Seven—already have actually since you know about me."
"I'm in."
A raised eyebrow, and Grant tries to settle, temper the excitement in his tone. He's supposed to be cool, after all. "Sure. Count me in. And don't worry," he adds, "I'll make sure not to call you 'dad' in front of the team. Don't want to ruin that cold-hearted reputation."
A full on chuckle from Coulson, and Grant can't help it, he steps back in for one more hug, to feel the solid flesh and bone and beating heart against him.
"Yes, that reputation," Coulson mutters, hugging him back.
When they emerge, all banter and business, Maria lets herself relax. Maybe some things can be normal again.

thing i drew for a map thumbnail contest for @louixie ! progress from sketch to final under cut
initial sketch ! originally was going to be cloudy and generally dimmer
lines and flat colors, tried doing the crows different colors as they went to the back to maybe help with perspective but i ended up ditching that (also i am using the wrong colors for her here wegh)
starting to rough out the shading
and cleaning up the shading itself, here is where i realized i didnt like the colors bc they were super dull but i had no idea how to change them-
but in between then and here i found there were color refs for this map and referenced those instead of the others i was referencing and changed the right crow to be her moms colors, also changed the bg bc watching the map animatic and looking at the references i realized that it is very much a clear sky! also started on the lighting (started with it like 100% opacity just to make sure i could see it at all rtjtdyjs)
did the shading and lighting on the crows finally and mostly finished up her lighting, also changed the chin bc i was just not happy with it and ouh i am so happy i did
and then this is the final thing without the words ! added the ripples here and changed the shading/lighting on the crows and crowpaw a bit, also moved somethings around on her like lowering her tail and back- and yea thats about it !
#novart#warriorcats#warriors#warriors oc#others ocs#wanted to enter this since it seemed like a good opportunity to practice painting fur with my more painting like style !#went into it mostly just thinking i wanted to make something im proud of and yea im pretty dang happy with it :]#also figured id share the process since this is like the one time i shared wips like crazy to my friends#and im always interested in seeing things like that so ! ye :]

Man I am having crazy anxiety about tomorrow lol and not about the right things lmao
#Katie is rambling 2k24#I could understand if I was nervous about having my much bigger streamer friend on my stream#but I’m not at all lmao#but I kind of decided if that friend who is ghosting me can’t bother to wish me a happy birthday#that I’m gonna send him one more letter and drop it#because whatever I’m doing is clearly not working for him#which is why he’s contacting other people and not me#so like it feels like some big ultimatum#even though it’s really just a boundary for my own well being#because it is setting off some really bad shit in my brain#and I can’t keep doing like I have been#also gonna have to do a lot of house stuff tomorrow because my brother sprained his ankle and can’t stand for long#and I don’t want to do that on my birthday but I don’t think I can avoid it#I dunno just . . . even though my life is pretty dang good rn there’s still a lot I wish was different#but I don’t have the control to change those things so it’s making me insane

Keep saying “I need to draw again”, so I forced myself to draw MechWarrior Bobbie (3024 edition)
3028 Bobbie, along with both versions of Jimbo, will come at a later date
#the expanse#battletech#expanse battletech au#bobbie draper#my art#for the record yes she does usually go 'cooling vest gloves boots and shorts. no shirt.'#with how hot she ran her MMC shadow hawk...there's no way in hell she's ruining her favorite bras by wearing them in the cockpit.#(the sunfang is only not worse because it's a delivery mechanism for one very big gun and carries only five rounds for it)#(the SHD-NGT though? still not as bad as her MMC hawk.)#oh boy I’m not all that happy with it. mainly anatomically. and also all the dang tubing.#but I did it!#i feel like i'm pretty good at faces though? i mean it's been a few months since i've drawn. probably should've warmed up more.#oh no here i go PROMISING the slinky little SLDF catsuit with harnesses and tubes...#though according to some sources the SLDF suits were MADE of the tubing and it was all really tiny so it was basically just a jumpsuit

Ok, so, this is probably ridiculous, and I can't believe I have a House of the Dragon theory before it even airs (I can barely believe I have a HOTD theory at all), but...
Since the release of The Princess and the Queen in 2013, and through everything published about the Dance of the Dragons since then (TRP, TWOIAF, F&B), it's known that Daemon and Aemond Targaryen have a lot of parallels. Besides the most obvious point of their names (just move the D, lol), they're both hotheaded, vengeful, kinslayers, brutal and ruthless, excellent swordsmen, more martial and physically active than their kingly older brother who they were nevertheless devoted to... culminating in their final showdown in the Battle Over the Gods Eye, the aging older model vs the would-be "new hotness". Though a major difference is that fandom tends to treat Aemond as far more of a pretentious wannabe, a bad Xerox copy with his marysueish sapphire eye and ooh so hardcore dialogue, generally disliked while Daemon is beloved (or at least opinions are far more split), the Darkstar to his Oberyn.

"But Rhaenyra's heir was a bastard! That means the Greens were right to support Aegon II instead of her!"
So you're telling me, if Rhaenyra had by chance married Harwin Strong, and he was her only husband, and she had 5 very legitimate dark-haired sons with him... Alicent would've just sat back and let Rhaenyra take the throne instead of Aegon? Criston would have? Otto would have? All the other lords of Westeros would have preferred a woman as ruling Queen, instead of the king's son?
Well. That's news to GRRM, because in an early version of the Dance, Rhaenyra was married to a Strong, and had three legitimate kids with him... and the Dance of the Dragons still happened.

My #1 post of 2022
When I first met him... he was the most gallant of lovers. He knew so many things. He delighted in sharing his knowledge. He had a castle full of treasures, and he took such pleasure in showing them, giving them to me. He was so gentle, and his skin felt like white silk against my skin. And I gave what I could give to one such as he. When we made love, it was like a flame: I felt utterly engulfed, utterly loved. Treasured. I have been with many poets, many dreamers... but his love alone was ice and fire. His eyes were stars.
Calliope, in The Sandman #71, by Neil Gaiman

Mc/Yuu that when given genuine affection from their friends such as a small gift or just being told that they enjoy being around them, they just get really quiet and look at their friend with shock and disbelief, tearing up a little bit and just going "...oh..." in a real small voice.
Bonus points if they're not usually emotional like this.
It would be fun if it was the overblot gang since they just got some gifts themselves, or maybe ADeuce duo...idk man, I just want some wholesome friendship, I feel like there aren't enough fics like that in this fandom-
WARNINGS: Can be read as platonic or romantic, some of these might be longer/shorter than others, all of them care about you but (almost) all of them are bad with Emotions. also there are slight references to book 6 in Idia’s section if you squint
COMMENTS: AWH this is such a cute idea! And yes, there should definitely be more wholesome, platonic fics! Also, sorry these are short D:
Wait, crap, you’re tearing up? He just got you a present- are you okay?? He’s low key worried about you, unsure if this is just you being extremely excited about his (amazing) gift or if there’s something else going on. Either way, he’s quick to figure it out and reassure you as best he can. He’s torn between feeling bad about making you cry and being happy you liked his present so much. Either way, he pulls you into a hug and rubs patterns into your back until you feel better.
You’re crying?! Ohhhh crap oh crap oh crap- he doesn’t know what to do! Was his present that bad-? Once you reassure him and tell him you love it, he relaxes a little bit but is still clearly distressed. He isn’t very good at figuring out why you’re reacting this way, but his genuine care for you shines through and helps you feel a little more comfortable in his own way.
Wh-what?? Did he do something wrong-? He did a bunch of research, so he had assumed that this gift would be something you’d appreciate, not tear up over! Riddle is. Confused. And scared. He’s new to this whole “having friends” thing, and he thinks very highly of you, so the thought of messing up is pretty scary. He’s at quite a loss of what to do. When you reassure him and tell him you’re okay, he’s very relieved. He makes a note of how much you appreciated the gift and is determined to do more for you. If he has to get used to having friends, he wants you to get used to receiving the affection you deserve, too.
Awh, come on. You’re seriously tearing up over this? He ruffles your hair affectionately, giving you space to process your emotions while staying nearby. He doesn’t quite get what all the fuss is about - all he knows is he got you something and then you “exploded into tears” (you did not, he’s exaggerating). He sits with you until you feel better and tries to think of ways he could give you stuff without you “freaking out” like this. Maybe some money left in your pockets would be a good idea…
As soon as you tear up, he wants to go hide in his octo-pot. He knew it, it was a stupid idea. He should’ve gone with the other present idea, maybe then you’d be less disappointed. If you even still want to be friends with him after this. The moment you explain that you’re really happy, however, his mood does a complete 180, attempting to both comfort you and gloat a little at the same time. He would pat you a little awkwardly on the shoulder, wanting to express he appreciated your vulnerability. He’s definitely making notes on things he could spoil you with.
He freezes. Dang, he thought it was something you’d like. If not, that’s okay, he did keep the receipt. You can take it back to the store and get a refund if you’d- oh? You liked it? He’s another one that would try to comfort you and feel smug at the same time. The thought of making anyone but particularly you so happy is a little jarring to him, and your way of expressing emotions is definitely unexpected, but he’s glad he got you this. Maybe he’ll get you something better next time.
For once, Vil is speechless. For a moment he just kinda stands there in surprise, before sweeping you into his arms for a hug - completely ignoring how his clothes might crinkle. He didn’t think you would react that way, and - although he’s pretty sure you’re happy - he wants to comfort you anyway. Once you confirm you’re actually happy, he thinks your reaction is sweet and endearing and pure. He’s definitely buying you more things if this is your reaction to it,
The moment you say “oh” and start to tear up he’s internally going say sike rn. Bro was not prepared for Emotions. He can hardly handle his own feelings, why’d fate dump him with someone else’s?! Especially since they belong to someone he cares about. He’s not real good with other people, let alone taking care of them. He wishes Ortho was here - he could google Top 10 Ways To Comfort A Friend Who Randomly Starts Crying. Idia kinda just ends up patting your entire head awkwardly and saying “there there” through his tablet. He knows it’s pathetic, okay?
He’s utterly confused. He followed the Human Customs of buying a gift for someone you care about, why are you displaying a negative reaction? Was the gift not satisfactory? Lilia said this would be enough, although perhaps he should’ve gone with his original plan and bought you significantly more. Were you perhaps disappointed? Once you reassure him, he almost laughs. He thinks your reaction was very cute, he will be buying you significantly more things. Prepare yourself.
♥Thank you for reading!! I hope you enjoyed it!!♥

One of my fav podcasts is doing an episode on you and I'm shaking my head because they're not real buckaroos and they don't understand that you write because love is real and everyone should have joy in their lives. They're just making jokes and I'm like "at least buckaroos embrace what makes us happy"
yes this is interesting thing that happens with my trot A LOT. i usually will repost a podcast or interview if someone does a nice talk on chuck, but there is STILL a large portion of folks who seem to have the irony poison pumping through their veins and cant come to terms with the fact that my work is sincere
you can pretty dang quickly tell if someone is laughing AT you or laughing WITH you. i have trotted onto interviews where i IMMEDIATELY know i am getting laughed at and honestly that is okay. i cant really blame them because i know the way the culture of irony swirls around us and swallows everything up, especially online. i also know that as i trot forward and break down walls of 'low brow' and 'high brow' art there will be resistance, ALL the good trots forward will face resistance.
HOWEVER it also has to be said that a lot of this is just plain old SUBCONSCIOUS BIAS (or maybe conscious bias sometimes) against queer people and neurodivergent people. if my work was straight and i followed the neurotypical template for art i would not be treated like this. honestly the most fascinating thing to me is that these otherwise kind, well-meaning or even politically left people are just publicly tearing apart someone for, if you really wanna get down too it, being bi and autistic. i think they would be HORRIFIED is someone pointed that out, and for some reason they cant see it
i think a lot of this has to do with people thinking i am not 'real'. it is much easier to treat a 'character' this way.
but it is fine. its the trot ive got, and if you think about it, even though these folks are resistant to take me seriously and with actual respect for my work, it is actually THEIR loss. a podcast episode where you make fun of my book titles for an hour is SO MUCH LESS INTERESTING than a podcast where you pull apart what im actually doing and the intention behind my work. any time a buckaroo dives into THAT part of it, their analysis resonates across this timeline. so really its the folks makin fun that are missing out

Kind of incredible what a homerun Mad Mew Mew is.
In Undertale's base game, the Mad Dummy is a one-off joke miniboss. It comes at you outta nowhere, delivers some funny dialogue, and isn't important in the slightest. The dummy's personality was mostly pretty hostile and unpleasant, so people didn't like it much. Before the Switch release, this was one of Undertale's least cared-about characters.
Then the Switch port releases, and Mad Dummy is back as Mad Mew Mew, in an optional boss fight. Except Mad Mew Mew seems uncharacteristically happy. She goes on about finding a new body and instantly recognizing it as herself, and it's a pretty dang obvious trans allegory. Mad Mew Mew shows a lot more vulnerability, making her hostility seem more like a self defense mechanism and upping her likeability. Lo and behold, one of Undertale's least popular characters instantly becomes a trans icon.
Before this, similar theories existed about Mettaton, since he is another ghost looking for his perfect body, but the allegory wasn't nearly as un-obvious as it was with Mew Mew.
It's honestly crazy that she's still almost exclusively in the Switch port. Her fight was not included in the Xbox version, nor was it patched into the Steam release. She also has not made a major appearance in Deltarune.

✦ THE BOY IS MINE, O. BEARMAN
is where you're in a mission to prove that ollie is yours, but little did you know that he's also going to do the same to prove that you are his.

hey all, sorry for the accidental hiatus, i’ve been kind of crazy busy lately but! i did manage to finally finish A NEW ZINE!!!
i’m pretty dang happy with how this one turned out, even if it took me genuinely 7 months from first draft to final print version to finish it. i think it sums up my philosophy vis-à-vis artmaking pretty well, and looks pretty good to boot!
the full zine is purchaseable on my shop but patrons of mine get access to full PDFs of this zine and all of my others (and behind the scenes posts on the making of this zine from script to final layout!!) wow what a deal!!!
#my art#art#zines#zine#how to evolve#posting this at 9:30 PM on a sunday because i dont giive a fuck
