jealousy, caitlin clark

caitlin clark x vb! reader

in which caitlin has a jealousy problem and let’s it get the best of her.

disclaimer: i don’t play volleyball :) i actually barely know anything about it except from what i’ve collected by watching my sister play so sorry if it’s inaccurate!

Caitlin made it a point to try and make it to all of your games. She rarely missed one unless basketball took her away, which you understood. You tried to make it to all of her games as well and you did most of the time, sitting with her parents if they were in attendance or just with your friends who also showed up.

Once the end of October hit, it was harder, but most of the time it worked out. August through September, you could almost always count on her being in the crowd, normally having Monika and Kate (or any of the girls) in tow.

On this particular night, the team was playing extremely well. You, a libero, had been taken out during the second set after landing on your arm in a painful way when trying to pancake on the floor. You were mad at yourself for it, never really getting hurt when diving or anything, but it was something that was out of your control now.

You were put back in during the third set, after winning the first and second sets. There was a dull pain in your arm as you dove to the ground to save a ball again.

Soon enough, the Hawkeyes took a third win, the game over. You clapped hands with the other team, heading back to the locker room with your team.

Once you’d gotten all of your things pack up, putting a pair of sweatpants, leaving you in your uniform top. You stepped out of the locker room, going to look for Caitlin who had told you she’d be here.

“Hey, 22!” you hear someone call. You share a number with Caitlin, something you both like. Quickly, you turn your head to see a girl from the other team stepping toward you, “You good from that fall earlier?” she asked.

You laugh softly, nodding your head, “All good here. I’m sure I’ll have some bruises.”

The girl nods, looking you up and down a little, pressing her lips together with a smile. Unbeknownst to you, Caitlin, Monika, and Gabbie were walking up after spotting you. Caitlin’s jaw was clenched, watching this girl check you out.

“Caitlin, you should calm down a little,” Monika told her, the three of them stopping far enough away to where you still don’t notice them.

Caitlin furrows her brows, “I’m calm,” she answered.

“You’re staring like you wanna kill someone and I know it won’t be y/n,” Gabbie chimed in.

Sure, Caitlin was a little protective of you. She had a little bit of a jealousy problem, but you couldn’t do anything about that. It’s like she knew when another girl or guy was flirting with you and it set her off real quick. When the girl talking to you gently hit your shoulder when laughing at something that was definitely not that funny, Caitlin almost lost it.

You felt fingers brush your back from behind you, latching onto your waist as they pulled you into their side. Knowing it was Caitlin, you put your hand on the side of her stomach, a smile gracing your features.

“Hi, nice to meet you,” Caitlin said to the girl in front of the two of you who now looks defeated. Caitlin looks a bit smug.

She smiled at Caitlin, “You too,” she said before looking back at you, “Good job tonight.”

“Thanks, you too,” you respond. The girl turns and walks away and Caitlin kisses your head gently.

You looked up at Caitlin, “Was that necessary, baby?” you asked with a smile.

She shrugged with a nod, “She was flirting.”

“She was being nice,” You respond.

Caitlin shakes her head as she presses a kiss to your lips, Monika and Gabbie walking toward the two of you.

Gabbie has a look of relief on her face, “We thought she was going to kill her,” the Marshall girl told you.

You stared up at your girlfriend with wide eyes as she shakes her head again, “They’re lying. I wasn’t going to kill anyone. Just had to make sure she knew you were taken.”

“Goodness, Clark, don’t lose your shit.”

Recently read All New Wolverine #6 and found out Gabby has kids.

And she named them Logan and Wade.

Our boys' legacy will live on forever. She admits that they are huge handfuls and Laura bassically says "what did you expect?"

And I can't stop thinking about how from the day Wade met Gabs, They were quote "Best friends" end quote.

Like this girl is somehow this mans daughter. "Oh because adoption?" Literally no. And this can be taken as "Wade acts childish" OR Iykyk-

Gabby is exactly how Logan would have behaved minus the truama and if he was raised/ accepted with the knowledge of his claws.

Our boy Logan fits with Wade so much because they are so similar it is unreal. So to see Wade so quick to help Gabby and support her through the craziest of ideas (COUGH "dont tell your sister" COUGH) Not because hes "her friend" but because he knows that Logan is stubborn ASF and if someone dosn't go with this little murder munchkin- someones gonna get hurt. And he'll be damned if its her.

This is actually so beautiful too because while they both can heal, you have "Im in pain 24/7 so this is nothing to me." and "I CAN'T feel pain so I need someone to make sure I dont push myself too far"

Everyone says how Laura is copy and paste of Logan (no duh, they were both extremely abused, experimented on, and were raised to be tough) but no one talks about how Gabby literally has Wade's batshit crazy smile. How Wade HANDS her matches and sits to watch the fire with her. How Wade doesn't tattle on her because he wants her to trust him, and he knows he won't let anything happen to her. How Wade GIVES her chloroform(!??) And tells her it would be irresponsible to NOT give her something to knock someone out if she feels introuble?

Logan can have Laura. He can argue with her all he wants. Wade and Gabs are gonna go play paintball and then get ice cream. WITH sprinkles.

This being said, I think Laura struggles to connect with Wade the same way Gabby does. I think Gabby doesn't struggle to connect with Logan, though, because of how instictivly paternal he is and the fact that he can see tiny innocent James inside Gabrielle.

They are all so over protective of Gabby and it makes me feel sorry for when she gets a boyfriend.... can you imagine trying to have a study date with a girl when both her father AND her sister is the fucking Wolverine? And on top of that her other papa is a phycopathic maniac that will infact throw you off a 10 story building if you make his little girl cry, scrape you off the concrete and throw you in a blender, bake you into a pie, and feed you to your parents...

IM SORRY SHE NAMES THEM WADE AND LOGAN!? THATS SO FUCKING ADORABLE!? MY HEART CANT TAKE IT! Also, no idea if they are in the comic or if it shows how they act, but headcannoning that Logan is the batshit crazy one this time and Wade is the more chilled one, purely because that is really funny in my head?

And Wade is like- so good with kids? Noone ever mentions it, but he really is. Yeah, okay, in his own insane Wade Way (that should be a trademark), but Deadpool 2 is literally him helping a kid because he sees this traumatised abused boy that he NEEDS to help. Someone no one else wants to give a chance, and here Wade is, literally taking him under his wing and protecting him every second.

I've seen some of the panels with him and Gabby (I need to actually read the comics but jesus, there are so many?), and he is so so adorable. The fact he just instantly (similar to Russel in the movie, not exactly the same obviously, but ya know) decides "this is my kid now. I will protect them with everything I can. No one will ever hurt them again." is just- so heartwarming and people don't appreciate it enough!!

I think the girls would definitely struggle to connect to Wade alot because I feel like Wade is ALWAYS the funny, happy dad? He wouldn't want his girls to see him hurt or upset or anything else, so he's always making jokes and bring dramatic, while Logan is the more serious one who you can talk to about anything.

Also, Wade being the overly supportive dad is so fitting. He's stood there filming Gabby just doing something EXTREMELY illegal like "you're doing great sweetie!" and after he is getting her any snack she wants to treat her for doing a good job.

[maks-punchout-hyperfixtion]

Punch out headcanons take one

Sorry super punch fans, this is only wii/nes versions

Minor circuit

Glass Joe

Pretty good baker, can't make complex stuff without help though.

Actually retired once after the arcade/nes version of punch out, came back after Gabby jay retired, has had thoughts about it again but keeps remembering that his life would be dull without it. Also his score rested and he still got 99 loses (102 after the wii game)

Has trouble sleeping, uses weighted blankets to help.

Von Kaiser

Your meaning to tell me that dispite being 42 canon years old with some of the most out of pocket head canons ever im the only one that thought it would be funny for him to have a kid be the near opposite of him? Aka he is a dad.

Knows how to cook, doesn't often anymore but still knows

I believe he would like coconuts.no i won't elaborate.

Disco Kid

Likes all kinds of songs, not just disco. Still loves disco though.

Is a relative of kid quick, nobody knows what relation though.

I like the idea that he is friends with aran, i don't ship disco clover but its still a nice pairing we need more.

King Hippo

Can speak English but prefers grunts or noises.

Likes to explain his culture, specifically gifts and other stuff other find meaningless.

Also has a lot of tropical recipes he gives to everyone.

Major circuit

Piston Hondo

Still has that restaurant from the Wii live action ad.

Piston honda? Oh that's his twin.

Definitely has a manga collection. He also has 3 sets of everything. One for display one for reading and one for borrowing. He does not trust aran,soda, bear hugger, and king hippo with them at all.

Bear Hugger

Dad energy. He essentially went and adopted all the boxers with daddy issues, or parent issues in general.

Forced the WVBA to give maple (the bear) a seat in the crowd so she could watch the match, they had to make an entire separate area for her.

Has walked out in the snow with nothing but his overalls and shoes on. That gave everyone a scare forgetting he's used to the cold.

Great Tiger

Uses his clones to do/help with his chores. Once got beaten up by them (a reference of the century here folks)

Once his jewel was stolen and was found in a pawn shop selling for 3 dollars. He was mad at how low the price was then anything.

Once brought his tiger into the shared house, and it immediately broke the couch. The tiger is not allowed in the house anymore.

Don Flamenco

He and Carmen broke up after his first lost, got back together shortly after and forgot the whole issue.

Used bull fighters techniques on bald bull, he would have won if bald bull didn't right hook him into next sunday (literally)

Has tried multiple different types of hair growers, wigs, and more. He is still Balding.

World circuit

Aran Ryan

Actually got in the world circuit fair and square, not by cheating.

He started cheating after some idiot tried to stab him in the ring, good times from the WVBA!

I have a feeling he would say he likes to eat limes raw just to get on everyone's nerves.

Has also gotten confused with his Older brother, spo Aran Ryan, who promptly got a name change after aram started to cheat.

Soda Popinski

None of the boxer can drink his soda because its a legit health hazard to all of them.

Has no clue what the hell is going on 68% of the time.

Has actually used dry ice as a ice pack. This guy isn't human anymore.

Bald Bull

Hates don flamenco with a passion after the bull technique incident.

Is actually calm outside the ring, any public out brust is to get rid of potential paparazzi's (it doesn't work often)

Makes a pretty good calming tea.

Super Macho Man

Once had a horrible movie shoot that made him lose alot of viewer, proceeded to have an early mid life crisis and dye his hair gray.

After his loss with little mac he was more upset at the ladys chasing after little mac rather then him, rather then the sudden drop of viewers (which wasn't even a dent)

Probably had alot of talks about his boxer outfit, you know what im referring too.

Mr. Sandman

Dispite his name, he gets very little sleep. Not like glass joe but still.

He's so strong the WVBA actually has a ambulance on standby whenever he fights.

One time was put up against glass joe, actually laughed, realized it was serious, looked the referee in the eyes and said "if im put up against him ever again we'll need to find a new glass joe" and forfeited the game. Technically if joes score didn't reset it would now be 2-299.

[bxbu-chuu]

The tea in his cup is already cold, the book he’d been reading lays abandoned on the table and, honestly, if it were completely up to him Levi would already be doing something else by now. The thought of having to get on his wheelchair and out of the house with it is the only thing stopping him, it’s still difficult to believe that such mundane tasks can take so much energy out of him- even after all these years. He can’t help but remember how his body used to feel, how he felt every single muscle, how he could control every inch of it and do it well.

It seems that’s most of what he does lately, think about the past. He finds himself lost in some old memory at least a few times a day- sometimes they’re happy and he has to wipe the stupid smile off his face before Gabbie starts thinking he’s having a stroke, other times they’re dark and full of death, and he can’t do anything but let the grief flare up inside him once again. Either way he’s grateful for memories, he’d rather revive the pain of loss a million times than forget about any of the people he lost- forget about her. 

So he just decides to indulge, to lay back on his kitchen chair, push the start of the day back and close his eyes to allow a memory to play out in his head. He thinks about this moment very often, too much maybe, but it’s only thanks to the constant repetition that he’s able to remember every detail so vividly- almost like he’s still there.

They’re sitting in bed with nothing but silence and the cool night breeze filling the space between them. They just recovered wall Maria and stepped closer to the truth about humanity, but the weight of grief and death lays too heavy on their shoulders for any celebration. Instead of their usual side by side, they are facing each other, both of them almost too scared to let the other out of their sight. 

Levi has his back to the headboard, sitting cross legged, and Hange is in front of him hugging herself with both of her legs pressed tightly against their chest, her chin resting on top of them so she can intensely watch the man in front of her. He can tell they’re thinking something, he can recognize the look of concentration even when half of Hange’s face is covered by bandages- his chest tightens, he almost lost them today.

“Please don’t die” His thoughts are interrupted by the words, the few seconds of silence that follow them are charged with tension.

“I’m not going to die”

“I guess you’re right… Humanity’s strongest soldier and all of that huh?” He uncrosses his legs just to kick her, very lightly- they both have more than enough bruises to heal. Hange just takes it as an opportunity to move and place their head against Levi’s chest, sitting comfortably between his legs. “But really, please don’t die, okay?” 

He can’t help but laugh, as he wraps his arm around them. “I won’t die”

“Why are you laughing? It's not funny!”  She hits him on the arm, hard enough for it to hurt a little more than necessary, she’s never known how to control her strength. 

“It’s just that I was thinking the same thing.” He squeezes once more “It would be a pain in the ass if you died”

“Well, if it’s such an inconvenience for you then I’ll promise I won’t die if you promise too. And then we can both go to sleep, cause I’m exhausted”

“Deal”

“Deal, then” They place a soft, quick kiss on Levi’s jaw before untangling from him and settling in their own side of bed. “Goodnight”

He opens his eyes and the silence is overwhelming, he lets a shaky breath out and tilts his head back to stop the tears forming from falling down. He always kept his promises to others, but to keep living like this was really proving itself to be the most challenging one to date. If only he’d tried a little harder to convince Hange not to leave back then, maybe they’d be here right now. She’d push his chair around when he didn’t have the will to do it himself, they’d reach the taller shelves and tease him about it. He can almost hear her laughter, her voice telling him “You really found a way to become ever shorter”, he knows they would never walk on eggshells around him.

The idea of that easy, familiar company brings a warm feeling to his chest, and he knows he has to stop. If there’s one thing he’s learned is that getting stuck on what could’ve been is much more dangerous than memories.

[raisinchallah]

you know ive always had the idea for a xena purim episode because i think it would be funny and like very in the style of beware greeks bearing gifts queen esther ex of xena sends for xenas help and to come to the palace immediately so xena and gabrielle set off for persia to stop haman and free mordechai and we get a very loose retelling of the purim story lots of intense homoerotic history between esther and xena gabrielle getting into an argument with haman over the top final fight completely out of step with any telling of the book of esther and xena and gabrielle getting their happy little heartfelt moment as hamans body is still in view and very charged send off between xena gabby and esther perhaps a feminist reconceptualization of vashti in the cards as well etc but with about 3 minutes left in the episode we get quick cut to a small lgbt synagogue space in the late 90s where not minya and not gabrielle are in homemade purim spiel costumes having an argument and minyas like i know we all like that xena show but she wasnt part of the purim story have you read the megillah?? and gabrielles like no i remember we were in persia... and everyones groaning like oh here she goes again

DayCare Moments|| JJK x OC

A/N: Taking a quick breather from nursing school to push this out. I miss Jennette and Jungkook (& Peanut too!)

Might add onto this later, but just wanted to post something.

Pairing: Jungkook x Jennette

Dropping off a Daycare...

Even when he is running late, Jungkook always walks hand in hand to the front door of the daycare. He could be meeting his favorite idol of all time and would still walk his Peanut into the building. He rings the doorbell of the home daycare. The late fifty-year-old black woman answered the door with a smile. A sleepy toddler on her hip.

"Have a good day." Jungkook watches Peanut's coils move in the wind as she enters the daycare. Within seconds, she conversed with Cameron, one of her daycare friends.

"I love you!" Jungkook raises his voice, seeing that Peanut didn't respond to his earlier statement. Remembering that her dad still existed, she wobbled back to the door.

"Love you!" Jungkook crouched down to her level before embracing her. With ease, he scooped her little body up. Blowing raspberries on her cheek as she squealed.

"Appa loves you so much. My peanut cup."

Placing her on the ground, he left one kiss on her forehead. Careful not to shift the Hello Kitty clips Jennette placed in her hair this morning. Peanut was at that stage where she wanted to pick out her clothes like mommy and daddy. However, she had the pickiness of her mother and got fussy if her hair or clothes were not neat.

With one hand touching her hair, she waved goodbye to her father. Jungkook smiled at the mini Jennette in front of him. He blew several kisses to her before turning around to walk back to his car.

❤︎

"What song are we listening to today, Peanut cup?" Jennette buckles in her toddler. Peanut was always given the aux cord when Jennette had to take the toddler to school. Plus, it was funny to hear Peanut's raspy voice sing beautifully off-key to the songs.

"The Red Panda song." Peanut grooved in her car seat. Two weeks ago, Jennette and Peanut watched the Disney animated film 'Turning Red'. Jennette didn't expect Peanut to like the movie as much as she did. As it wasn't necessarily focused on really young kids. But Peanut awwed and gushed over Mei Mei's panda form. Requesting Jungkook get her a red panda plushy (which arrived the next day from Amazon).

The second reason Peanut liked the movie so much was the songs the fictional boyband 4-Town sang. The most recognizable one 'Nobody Like U' was nicknamed the 'Red Panda song' by Panda. Jennette didn't complain much as it gave her a break from hearing 'Part of Your World' from the Little Mermaid.

Jennette played the song before pulling out of the driveway. Occasionally, I look in the rearview mirror to see Peanut dancing to the song. At some parts of the song, she would make up her own lyrics; she was in her own groove. Her head moved side to side as she sang her little heart out. Twenty minutes later, when they got to the daycare, Peanut was still singing the lyrics to 'Nobody Like U. '

Peanut Makes a Friend ...

Jungkook was doing some stretches on the carpet, listening to Peanut recap her day. She sat at the dining table, with a coloring book in front of her.

"... then it was time for recess, Cheese asked me to play hopscotch with him."

Jungkook paused, 'Cheese?'. What were parents naming their kids these days? Jungkook thought to himself. He didn't want to interrupt Peanut, with his growing list of questions.

"I was hopping like a bunny rabbit. Going like hop, hop, hop." Peanut mimics the hopping with the purple crayon in her hand.

"We had so much fun. I can't wait for recess tomorrow."

*next day*

"Bye bye, Ms.Potts, bye Gabby, bye Cheese!" She hugged the little boy. Peanut standing slightly over the little boy.

Jungkook smiled, watching the sweet interaction. One of his fears as a parent was Peanut being bullied. However, she appeared to be adjusting well at the daycare and had some friends.

"It's Chase, not 'cheese'." The little boy whined.

He pointed to the engraved lunchbox in his hand. Clear as day, the hand stitching spelled out 'Chase'. Quickly covering his mouth, not to laugh out loud. Jungkook ushered Peanut out of the front door.

❤︎

Jennette was making Peanut's lunch for school tomorrow when the four-year-old tapped her leg.

"Mommy am I allowed to have best friends?" She tilted her head, looking up at her mother so innocently.

"Yeah, you can have best friends."

A smile appeared on her face. "Good! I know Appa said I couldn't have girlfriends or boyfriends. But I wasn't sure about best friends."

"What's your best friend's name?"

"Cameron, Gabby, Chase, Makayla, Louis, and Bernard."

"Goodness, that's a lot of best friends." Jennette flipped the sandwich in the frying pan. She admired the golden brown color of the bread internally.

"We play at recess and sit beside each other in circle time."

Jennette nodded her head. The next time she picks Peanut off from school, she'll consciously look for all these 'best friends.'

A light bulb went off in Peanut's hand. She scurried around the corner out of Jenentte's sight. Brief ruffling could be heard. Sticking her head out slightly, Jennette wondered what Peanut was up to.

Surely enough, Peanut came around the corner with eight mini Rice Krispie treat bars in her hand.

"I hope you don't plan on eating all those tonight, miss ma'am."

"I was gonna share with my friends."

Peanut put on her puppy dog look for her mother. "Then why do you have eight. You named six friends?"

"Well, I was thinking about an extra for myself." She twisted a foot and looked down.

Jennette couldn't hide the laugh coming out of her mouth, even if she wanted too.

"Fine, Peanut. Fine."

[thekrows-nest]

I’m curious about the casts physical capabilities, strengths and weaknesses. It would be funny if under her elegant clothes Gabby is secretly really buff. But she also seems like the type to mainly rely on her wits. Maybe she’s just always a few steps ahead of a situation, carries mace and is very quick to run. The most likely Final Girl or likely to avoid a situation completely. Unless…

I know Krow is strong and has stamina for days, probably has quick reflexes. But I feel like he might not run as fast? Fast but not speedy. More like long distance.

I have some weird notion that Luke played football when younger and quit due to injury? Did I make that up? (But it doesn’t matter much as he’s always staying safe at home eating icecream. Do not the Luke.)

Eliyah is probably weakish but can put on a short burst sprint from casual jogging.

Mary… I really don’t know. I think Mary follows a safe routine like Gabby and she and Camilla stick together. Camilla also carries mace. If it came to it and Mary was caught in a bad situation alone, she would either freeze completely or surprise us.

Naila and LT - while benevolent they’re the ones to be running from.

You basically nailed it lmao. But I like rambling.

So there's a couple of AU's with her counterpart, Gabe, who IS physically quite strong (I played him in a TTRPG once where he was even known as "The Muscle") but anyway. Gabby mainly is the type to rely on wits and intelligence, with also a bit of dexterity. She's not real strong, fast or with a lot of stamina or constitution, but mentally is quick, observant as as you say, prime Final Girl material. Probably would sound like a bitch with some of the solutions she'd come up with in a typical horror situation but make the most sense AND would keep not just her alive but others (think Ripley standing firm on keeping Kane, as well as Dallas and Lambert in quarantine, that would have saved the crew for sure).

And that is correct on Krow. He's quite strong, has great stamina and quick reflexes, but he's not speedy, like you say. But he is very much more of an endurance, persistent person. I've said many times before, you'll tire out FAR before he will. I've said that for like, hurr hurr naughty situations, but it also applies to like... the horror in trying to get away from him.

No you didn't make that up! I said before that Luke played football in his younger years but had to quit due to an injury. He was every coach's dream back in his prime. Strong, fast, just kept on trucking along. Those days are over, but by no means is he helpless. Don't try to start something with Jazzy, be the last thing you do.

Eliyah is definitely the weakest of the bunch lmao. He's not totally pathetic, I'd say more that his physical skills are all... pretty average. He'd be stronger than Gabby, but no way would she let herself be in a situation to get grabbed by him ha ha.

Mary pretty much sticks with Camilla. Before they had met, Mary was probably the weakest of the bunch. Where she came from, how she grew up, it wasn't really... emphasized for her to be physical or know how to protect herself. Camilla has been helping her in building up confidence as well as doing physical stuff together, like jogging and all. Camilla is also trying to see about a self defense course that Mary likes (they've tried a couple but they haven't stuck, but Camilla isn't giving up!) I think what Mary would do if caught in a bad situation alone depends on how far she is in learning how to defend herself. She would, as said, either freeze, or surprise her opponent... and herself lol.

Yeah Naila and LT are your uhh... "game over man, game over" if you manage to piss either one off enough. They're the "if you're caught by this foe in a horror game, you are insta-dead."

[quackle]

What’s your opinion of Disventure Camp All Star as for now?

overall opinion right now is... hm... all i can say for now is "eh." let's discuss under the cut. (sorry for the rambles, per usual + sorry if things are rushed because i am At Work Bored Out Of My Mind)

ok. so.

is all stars my fav so far? well... no. don't get me wrong, there's some things i enjoy. it's still disventure camp and there are still some hilarious moments that i enjoy. the show has sooo much heart! and it's a product of hard work, which shows through things like certain elimination ceremonies (i'm thinking lake, tess, and ashley here), dialogue (fiore is always funny + tom's dumb one-liners with aiden staring into the camera makes me giggle every time), and voice acting (dcas voice actors i'll always love yall).

i've grown to love characters like tess, ally, gabby, and grett more this season too!! like i smile when i see them personally. i like their writing directions for the most part!

but there are other things in this show that i don't vibe with. yul is a whole topic of his own (tldr i do notttt like any single thing about yul's character / how he treats grett / how he's written in general at all, im sorry). some of these remaining characters are giving little to NOTHINGGGGG (let's all stare extra hard at aiden here! and idk maybe blink in alec, ally, and riya's direction for quick seconds). and the whole tomjake thing is not for me, which sucks considering it takes up a decent portion of a lot of eps. (then again idgaf about this ship and never have + i detest romantic complications due to lack of communication in almost every single media there is, so take this one with a grain of salt)

i think a mutual of mine on twitter said it best. something like, "with an all stars season, it's extra important to either highlight characters that might not have gotten much attention previously, or showcase a new side to these characters that intrigues the audience. they're all stars! prove it!" and while some have proven that imo, others never really get the opportunity.

so yeah. so far everything is a mixed bag for me, which is why i deem this season as "eh" so far.

but that being said. the show isn't over yet!! so i can't give a full opinion in good faith. when the whole season completes, i think i'll have a more cohesive opinion. so im sorry if this was all over the place anon </3

[fake-static-airspace]

ok, this feels like it needs to be the next post on this account before people start getting REALLY confused LOL

so, because i mentioned before that i have furry designs of everyone (even moreso than im planning to showcase here, the others are just gonna have to come w time i think, this shit is scary to admit LMAO) but they might be hard to identify without proper explanation. oh, and cw for nudity, i guess, i had to draw a picture of gabs w/o clothes because i needed a proper reference for his markings/gold stripes.

so we're starting w the blue bitch itself. uhh, let's establish this rq- i have nicknames for everyone. *everyone.* i usually just call it "vee" or "vibri." idk how these accumulated. sometimes, i'll use other pronouns as slang for it, usually being "he" or "she." i don't see it as either male nor female, these are just because i like the sound of these words LOL.

here's what the bastard looks like:

what a beast, huh? well here's some more examples:

as you can see, i get pretty varied w my art and depictions of these guys. the top one is the newest sketch, but the other two are pretty good so i included them anyway :3 ive started making it's wings more frilled/feather-like, but they are still the same material. i just like the way it looks.

the next one we'll be talking about is the evil red thing- again, w the nicknames, we usually just call her "two," and again w the pronoun thing. i like she/her-ing it, though.

here's a quick, thumbnail example:

and a couple more, older examples:

i'm not sure what animal it is!! i think either a bunny or a jerboa. some kind of prey animal, but not exactly meek. rabbits aren't pushovers, if you didn't know, they're very fierce little things. these are all kinda old, seeing as i don't draw her as often as. well.

you guys are gonna have to get used to me calling him nicknames as well, because it's just funny to call a grown man cute nicknames. so. gabby.

he may be hard to initially identify, obviously, but if you're confused, i did plan for that!

i like drawing the armor, but i'm usually drawing more casual situations, and i uh. don't feel like drawing allat. sorry LMAO. plus i like his face markings, i think they're pretty!!

OH and the halo is dynamic. it changes depending on mood, and how he's presenting (w the more "classic" pointy look being more for formal occasions.) i strayed a lot from canon w his design, in that i typically have his face uncovered and put him in pretty dresses, as opposed to the armor. he's fun for me to draw, so it'll be mostly him and vibri that you'll be seeing ;w;

here's some other examples of the big man himself (oh, and the last one, uh, naked jumpscare, its a ref for his patterns/stripes. i give him a lot of those.) (the one w the safe is in reference to a joke me and my friend have going on fffucking roblox, where we steal from people, and generally cause problems, hence the odd outfit for vibri. its the most recent armor reference i have :shinijchair:)

even this pattern ref is a little outdated, because i've started making his tail color-shift as well!! its more of a feather-fan now.

i have designs for a bunch of other characters as well, but i think these three are a good starting place ^^; so yeah, this should help w any amount of confusion anyone has!! also, if this is ur first post seeing me, hi!! i promise im normal LOL

Hi can you write regressor Ellie with caregiver Tom. The prompt would be that Tom is babysitting Ellie because Gabby had to go out for something, and Tom is taking care of Ellie the whole day while she is very small. It ends with Gabby coming home to find Tom and Ellie sleeping adorably at the couch and she takes a picture.

Regressor! Ellie w/ Caregiver! Gabby & Babysitter! Tom

Gabby rarely left the house without Ellie whenever she’s small. She hated leaving her, but she had some errands that she had to take care of and she wouldn’t be back until after Ellie’s bedtime.

Normally, Gabby would’ve taken Ellie with her, since Ellie barely regressed teeny tiny, but today she did. Which was another reason why Gabby couldn’t take her, as it would be way too obvious that she was acting “strange”.

Luckily though, anytime Gabby had to go somewhere without Ellie or was unavailable, Tom would watch over her.

Tom was actually Ellie’s main babysitter when she’s small. He was always the first person Gabby would call and see if he could watch her. And unless he was busy, Tom always agreed.

Ellie was very comfortable being small around Tom, as he had seen her regressed a lot. Whether it was because he was babysitting her or he had taken Jake over for a playdate, Ellie absolutely loved whenever Tom would come over.

Before Gabby left, she did mention to Tom that Ellie was a lot smaller than usual. Gabby said that she seemed to be around the ages of 1-2 years old, so she was very young.

Tom wasn’t phased at all though, he was used to taking care of younger regressors, so Ellie wasn’t going to be much of a problem for him.

When Tom walked into the living room, he saw Ellie sitting on the floor. There was a light blue blanket underneath her and she had a few toys in arm’s reach.

As soon as Ellie noticed Tom, she stood up and quickly toddled over to him while giggling.

“Tom!” Ellie cheered excitedly, squealing as Tom lifted her up. “Hey, sweet girl! How are ya?” Tom smiled at her as he put her on his hip.

Ellie only kept giggling, which Tom expected. Gabby did say that she was in a very good mood, and that she wasn’t able to talk much. Ellie could say some easy words, but that was about it.

“Tom! Tom!” Ellie happily repeated while pointing at Tom. “Yeah! Tom!” Tom laughed as he pointed to himself, which only made the smaller girl giggle more.

After a few seconds, Ellie began to wiggle around in Tom’s arms, so he set her back down. Ellie went back over to her toys, grabbed one, then went back over to Tom.

Ellie proudly showed Tom her toy, which was the stuffed animal that Gabby had gotten her during All Stars. Ellie absolutely adored the thing, and would always show it off to people multiple times.

Tom let out an overdramatic gasp when Ellie showed him the stuffed animal.

“Who is that, Ellie?” Tom questioned. Ellie giggled and babbled out the name to Tom. If Tom didn’t already know the name, he would’ve had no idea what Ellie was saying.

Another very dramatic gasp left from Tom.

“Is that Mr. Whiskers?!” Ellie squealed, excitedly bouncing a bit while nodding. Very gently, Tom took the plushie away from her.

“Hello, Mr. Whiskers! How are you?” Tom asked the stuffed animal, who obviously said nothing. Ellie was watching Tom interact with the stuffed animal while laughing a lot.

Besides Gabby, Tom was the only person Ellie was fine with when it came to taking a toy away from her, since she knew she’d get it right back. She was well aware that Tom wasn’t going to take her stuffed animal away forever and only did it to be funny.

Tom gave the plush a quick hug, then handed it right back to Ellie. A soft giggle left Ellie, who grabbed Tom’s shirt and pulled him over to the blanket she was originally sitting on.

“Do you want to play, Ellie?” Ellie nodded as she sat down, so Tom did the same. There were mostly some more stuffed animals on the blanket, but the was also a couple sensory toys and a rattle.

Tom grabbed the rattle and shook it for Ellie. She watched this for a few seconds, before giggling and taking the rattle from Tom.

Ellie played with the toy for a couple seconds, then set it down. She grabbed one of her stuffed animals and place it in Tom’s lap.

“Ohh, do you want to play with your stuffies?” Ellie smiled and nodded, so her and Tom played with the stuffed animals.

The two played for a little over an hour, when Tom noticed that Ellie looked a little upset. She had a very small pout on her face.

“What’s the matter, Ellie?” Tom questioned. Ellie made a soft noise and pointed at the kitchen.

“Are you hungry, El? Is it time for your dinner?” Ellie nodded in response. Tom stood up and picked Ellie up from the ground.

“Let’s go see what we can have!” Tom smiled as he took Ellie out to the kitchen.

Tom wasn’t a great cook, but he could make simple things. Like chicken nuggets, mac and cheese, sandwiches, stuff like that.

Tom sat Ellie down on the counter, then searched the freezer to see if they even had chicken nuggets at their house because, if Tom was being honest, he was kinda in the mood for them.

He didn’t find actual chicken nuggets, but he did find a vegan plant based kind, which he assumed Gabby was the one who bought them. Tom looked at the box, then looked over at Ellie.

“Are these even any good?” He asked. His question was answered when Ellie pointed at them.

“Want!” She spoke. “You want these for dinner?” Ellie nodded, so Tom went to get a pan. He put the chicken nuggets on a pan for Ellie, as well as himself, then turned the oven on and placed them in.

“If these are gross, then you’re in big trouble.” Tom teased. Ellie shook her head while giggling. “Nuh-uh!” She said. “Yuh-huh!” Tom playfully argued back.

While the nuggets were cooking, Tom was cutting up some strawberries and putting them on a plate for Ellie. He also put a couple handfuls of pretzels on the plate as well.

Once the chicken nuggets finally finished, Tom cut them up for Ellie and put those on her plate. Tom then picked up Ellie and grabbed the plate, and brought her and her dinner over to the table.

“I’ll bring your juice over in a second, okay?” Tom told her as he placed Ellie down on a chair and set the plate in front of her.

“Sippy?” Ellie asked while looking up at Tom. “You want your sippy?” Ellie nodded. “Mhm.” She hummed. “Alright, I’ll be right back.” Tom smiled, before going over to make Ellie some juice.

Tom got Ellie’s juice ready, then got himself a drink and put the rest of the chicken nuggets on his plate. He brought everything back over to the table.

“Here you go, Ellie! Here’s your juice!” Ellie smiled as Tom set her sippy cup down in front of her.

Tom then sat beside of her, and began to eat his dinner, which he found surprisingly good. He didn’t think he’d like plant based chicken nuggets, but they weren’t bad.

After dinner, Tom grabbed the dishes and started to wash them. While he did the dishes, Ellie went over to him and started tugging on his shirt.

“Play?” She questioned. “Yeah, sweet girl. I’ll play in a few minutes, I just want to get these dishes cleaned.” Tom told her.

“Play!” Ellie repeated, still pulling on Tom’s shirt. “Tom, play!” She squealed.

The entire time Tom did the dishes, Ellie kept tugging on his shirt while repeating his name and the word “play”.

“Alright, Ellie. You want to go play now?” Tom asked while drying off his hands. Ellie happily nodded.

She grabbed Tom’s shirt and led him back to the spot they were playing in a while ago. They played with stuffed animals again, since that’s just what Ellie wanted to do.

Tom played with Ellie for about thirty minutes, until he checked the time. It was 8:30pm, so Ellie’s bedtime was in thirty minutes.

“Hey, Ellie. I think we should start getting you ready for bed.” A pout immediately appeared on Ellie’s face. Tom did his best not to laugh.

“I know, but you gotta get to bed soon.” Tom said. “If you listen and go get in your pajamas, I’ll read you a bedtime story.” Ellie thought about it for a moment, then nodded.

“Up.” She spoke, lifting her arms up so Tom could pick her up. Tom stood from the ground, then grabbed Ellie and carried her to the bedroom so she could get in her pajamas.

Tom got out a onesie for her and helped her change herself since she needed help. Once she was dressed, Tom clipped a pacifier on the onesie and placed it in her mouth. He then grabbed a book, before carrying her out to the living room.

Before they sat on the couch, Tom grabbed Mr. Whiskers for Ellie and gave it to her, causing her to happily hum in response.

Tom placed Ellie in his lap, Ellie immediately curled up with him and looked at the book.

“Do you like this book, Ellie?” Tom asked. Ellie nodded as she cuddled up with her stuffed animal, so Tom began reading the book.

When he finished with the book, Ellie had already fallen asleep. Tom decided to not move Ellie, as he figured Gabby could probably move her to the bed more easily when she came home. Tom didn’t want to wake her up.

So, Tom got on his phone for a while, until his eyes started to feel heavy. He didn’t see any harm in resting them, so that’s what he did.

After an hour, Gabby had finally come home. When she entered the house, it was completely silent, so she assumed Tom had put Ellie to sleep.

She wasn’t totally wrong. Tom had put Ellie to sleep, but he apparently had also put him to sleep since he was asleep as well.

Gabby held back her laughter as she looked at the sight on the couch. Ellie fast asleep on top of Tom, who was also asleep.

Gabby couldn’t help herself but to take out her phone and take a picture of the two. She thought it was adorable and also completely hilarious.

Once she took the photo, Gabby went over to the two and grabbed a blanket off the couch. She put it over them, then gave Ellie a kiss on her head and very gently patted Tom’s head a few times.

Disventure Camp All Stars: Thoughts and Opinions

I was scrolling through TD Twitter while eating my lunch and I noticed this. Disventure Camp might be getting cooked idk.

Disventure Camp is similar enough to TDI. So I decided to post my thoughts on here.

James- Absolutely terrible in DC2. Somewhat tolerable here. "Listen boytoy" was a funny line.

Lake- One of the few decent-ish characters from DC2 that did absolutely nothing here. Felt like she was just added to have a shock value elimination.

Miriam- Expected early boot but respect for going down swinging.

The Remaining Players:

Aiden- Boring asf in DC2. He's okay here. Not really rooting for him but he exists.

Ally- Abysmal in DC2. Okay here. After finishing ep 1 of DCAS. I hoped that Ally and Hunter would be the "toxic couple". Something like Chase and Emma from the reboot. But they seem pretty chill so far so that's disappointing.

Ashley- One of my faves from DC1 and she's still good here. I like the friendship she has with Jake. I think it's a little dirty that out of all the Disventure couples. Her relationship with Will happened off screen and got like 0 development. Maybe they should've just saved Ashley and Will for like an underdogs season? Idk.

Alec- The goat. The Alecmeister. The head honcho the villains alliance. I hope Alec getting all this screentime isn't a fakeout and he genuinely makes it far. If he does win, he needs to spend some of that money on therapy, lol.

Connor- I don't really get the hype. He's ok I guess. I wonder what was that card that Miriam gave him?

Ellie- Her move to get out Lake was impressive. But after episode 4, I could easily see Tess switching sides to Aiden and Tom. Ellie's gonna need that villain alliance to come in clutch.

Fiore- Getting that TDA Heather treatment. I hope since she's not the main villain anymore they actually give her a little bit of development. I've seen some ppl don't like the fact she's getting bullied. But I personally find it amusing.

Gabby- Hasn't really done anything interesting or entertaining so far. Then again it's only episode 4. Maybe she'll be better down the line.

Grett- I think her and Yul will be the toxic couple. Hope they both go far.

Hunter- Him bullying Fiore is funny. Other than that, eh.

Jake- I hope he goes off the deep end and enters his evil incel arc. Then like midway through the season he gets over Tom and they become enemies who used to date. Could be peak.

Riya- Her whole arc of pretending to be mean for the cameras and the whole persona she puts up is cool. Reminds me of what they did with Julia in Reboot S1. But here it feels a bit more serious.

Tess- Literal NPC. The Rematch Nichelle of this season. She needs to start doing something quick.

Tom- He's being a dickhead to Jake. But Jake is part of the reason he got eliminated so understandable.

Yul- The closest thing Disventure Camp has to a comedic relief character. NEEDS to go far. He seems to be a mixed bag, since I've seen some ppl dislike him because of his racism. But I personally view it like this, no one agrees with what he's saying and he usually either gets called out or physically hurt for saying it. So I don't have a problem with it. Shows need assholes. He's like an Eric Cartman type of character.

Bonus Notes: I predicted a Miriam elimination for Ep 2 and Ep 3. Then I tried to switch things up and predict Riya going home for Ep 4. Should've just went with my gut.

Prediction for Episode 5: Based off their convo, I think Ally and Hunter are gonna team up with Fiore. In which case, I could see Ashley going home since she's a bigger threat and one of Fiore's biggest haters.

Disventure Camp All Stars Power Ranking (Round 20)

At long, long last, it's time to crown a champion! Will Jake rise up to a heroic victory, or will it finally, in a sense, have to be Riya? You probably know what I'm going to say, but, let's dive into it anyways! One last time... :,)

In case you haven't seen my previous power rankings, the Power Ranking Format is essentially a way of ranking how well each player is doing in the game. So, in essence, this is a long form way of predicting who I think will be eliminated from the competition in the next episode. There will be spoilers for last week's episode (obviously) and its power ranking, so make sure to read that first if you don't want to be spoiled on how I ranked our last boot. If you want more clarification on the rules, that first post will help you out as well. Furthermore, I'm going to be spoiling the preview for next episode, so if you want to go in TOTALLY blind, save this for later. Let's go!

Recap - Ally's Elimination

Current Score: 78 acquired/115 total

(Points versus @venus-is-thinking: 29 acquired/41 total)

Bench Points: 9/15

It's pretty funny that, after how well it appeared I was doing with the bench points last time, I only got 1/5 remaining people correct. But, really, how was I supposed to predict that Gabby and Ellie would go to Riya's bench because it had more space on it? And why was Grett out here supporting Riya anyways?!?!

On to the more important part, well, I guess it still wasn't yet Riya's time. I've already spoken on how I thought that the challenge could have been framed better (Riya's lack of jewels still haunts us all), but also why taking out Ally instead of Riya could benefit her character. I'm disappointed that we didn't get to see Ally and Jake duke it out at the end, but hopefully ONC will be able to pilot these pieces into better conclusions for both Ally and Riya. Also Jake, but I think his fate was pretty locked no matter who he was dueling.

Trailer Analysis

Hey, there's Hunter supporting Ally post-loss like I wanted him to! Setting up/bringing back the drawing from the Loser's Motel is a super cute additional detail. I'm guessing this scene will happen very early into the episode, given that it's a direct follow up to what just happened at the end of last episode, and Ally has things to do later on. And Tess will come join them too! With Ally's confiscated games! Very nice.

LMAO, that's what happened to Emily? Quick turnaround on those bandages, girl. I wonder if Trevor will at all try to redeem her here.

Jake will pick up Ally and Tom as helpers, and Riya will pick up Ellie and Alec. It makes sense that Alec is helping Riya (from a writing perspective); they still have some emotions left unresolved that I imagined this episode might want to tackle.

I'd say this was the Jake supporter zone, except then I don't know how to justify Grett being there. I mean, I don't understand why Grett would want to support Riya, but she evidently did, so I don't know what would have caused her to change her mind so fast. Nearly killing Jake, James, Ally, and Fiore doesn't count.

Also, it seems like Gabby and Fiore were missing at some point in time? There might be a scene not included in the trailer of Gabby talking to Ellie and Fiore talking to Alec. Weird that we wouldn't have, like, Hunter/Tess/Ally or Aiden/Tom at the same time, though.

So, my best guess is that it's a "last man standing wins" type of challenge? Like, if you get hit by the colored arrows (of the opposite team's color?), you get eliminated. The helpers are supposed to protect their champion, but they can get eliminated as well. I don't know if that fully makes sense, but it seems viable enough.

This could go to show that all of the helpers will be eliminated before Jake and Riya (as to be expected). Wait, why is Gabby wearing gladiatorial clothing now???

Finally, more Jake/Ellie beef. I missed that this season. (/gen)

I don't think these guys are guys that we know, but it would be funny if they were. Or, even funnier, they're contestants from Season 4.

OKAY ALLY POP OFF!!!

Oh my god, you two, get a room. (/ref)

Literally everyone comes to align themselves against Riya eventually. I wonder if that can be some sort of a learning moment for Riya.

RIP Tom.

"Since no one is interested, I'll be picking someone random out of this jar. ...Alec, you're up!" "...Fine." "You can finally pay your alimony!"

Well, thank you, ONC, for including this scene to help us understand how the teams come to be. Here's my guess: as the person who placed first in the last challenge, Riya gets her first choice of bench helpers. Nobody wants to help her, until either Kristal reveals that helpers will be paid or Riya tries to bribe contestants forwards herself. Ellie, always looking for a quick buck, agrees to help Riya. Jake then picks Ally, as a show of good will towards his fallen competitor and in hopes of finally fulfilling Connor's wishes. Riya's turn again, and no one is falling for her bribery (interesting if true for Alec). This scene occurs, and Alec is forced to help Riya. Afterwards, Jake has his choice of multiple strong contenders, but with the urging of everyone on Jake's bench (who know that Tom wants to confess to Jake), Jake picks Tom.

Power Rankings

We're going backwards this time to ~conceal the mystery~. For all of two seconds.

#2: Riya (2nd Place)

I mean... after everything that's happened, maybe I should hesitate more in putting Riya at second place. After all, she's dodged, like, five straight weeks of me trying to sabotage her to the bottom, just to crawl all the way back to where she ended the last season. She has to, statistically, be the best player in DC history at this point. Maybe she would come through with a win.

Realistically, though, I know that that shouldn't happen. With the prize at $3 million and with the return of any of these characters fully unconfirmed (outside of the tomjake miniseries), I would hope that ONC would be smart enough to realize in advance how mad it would make everyone if Riya was the All Stars winner. As far as I can tell, the main people rooting for her at this point are either A) rooting for Ellie or Alec to get money, or B) just rooting against Jake.

No, it makes far more sense for Riya to come in second place yet again, and realize that, no matter if she plays the game as an underdog-turned-villain or a Queen Bitch from Day 1, she'll never be able to win because of the same reason she wasn't able to win Season 2: connections with people. Riya lost Season 2 because her cruelty and villainy caused Connor to turn on her, and thus lost her a ton of time (and pride) in the cave. This time, her two "supporters" will only be there for facetious reasons, and be unwilling to really take an arrow for her-- or at least, far less willing than Tom or Ally would be for Jake.

And you might protest that Ally would definitely be willing to let Jake get shot, and I hear you, but I also think that's part of the point. It's not like Riya is up against someone like Ashley or Tess, who probably would have been loved and supported by all the contestants up through the finish line. Instead, she's up against Jake, who easily started this season with more enemies than friends, but also managed to convert many of those enemies to friends along the way. Tom, who he had a rocky relationship with; James, who he voted out first; Aiden, who was caught in the crossfire of his jealousy; and even Ally, who initially hated his guts for how pettily he acted over Ashley. It's not just that Riya is up against some saint, it's that she's up against someone who could have been as hated as her, but decided to put in the work to be a better person and try to reforge the connections he burned when he was following solely his own internal compass. Jake is a winner because he's a hero, and he's a hero because he tried. Riya has never tried, and that's why she'll never win.

That being said, there is a compelling narrative to be had if ONC did decide to let Riya win this season for whatever reason. This comic, though a bit outdated compared to what actually happened, does a good job of showing how Riya could still get her karmic comeuppance despite winning the money. (Thank you to @/sapphireroses282 for showing it to me! Also, @/brieflykay, your style is really fun and I like your expressions.) I think the universe will have that handled without Riya needing to win, but it just serves as another example of how you can't call an idea "bad writing" until you see how an author actually plays the scene out.

#1: Jake (1st Place)

If the Power Rankings were actually based on who we thought was going to win the season at any given point in time, Jake would have been at #1 for weeks now. Even if there were times when I thought he plausibly could have been eliminated, I never really thought it would come to pass. And that's because he just makes so much sense as the winner of the season.

When Jake started this season, he was as everyone reported: selfish, whiny, and jealous. One could argue that Jake only did as well as he did in Season 1 because of his strong alliance with Tom and Miriam, who carried him through close to the end. At the beginning, everything stayed the same, with Jake voting emotionally to take out James, but everything also changed, as he was separated from Tom and Miriam was taken out early.

And then he did SO much. I know I've said it at least once before, but this truly was the Season of Jake. He formed a strong friendship with Ashley, but unlike in Season 1, he had to endure the thought of his alliance choosing to work with someone else over him. He was the bigger person in his talks with Tom about why their relationship wasn't working. He patched things up with Aiden, having to admit to his faults, and made a genuine friend. He fought with Ally, yes, but by the end of the season he never voted emotionally to take her out, instead learning about the importance of strategic voting and alliances.

It was hamfisted, sure, but James was right last episode in pointing out how much Jake has changed. He's still Jake, but he's also nothing like how Jake was before. He's the version of Jake that can win a season.

...As long as you ignore that weird relapse in Episode 19. Inconsistencies in DC writing, whatcha gonna do? (/lh)

The Drinky Crow Show #11: “Peace” | January 26, 2009 - 12:15AM | S01E10

War is over! Drinky and Gabby can return home and finally become Family Guys. Drinky goes back to his Lois and finds that she’s laid a bunch of Megs (eggs); dashing his plans for a better life of not having children. Gabby finds a Lois on the street that willingly re-enacts that famous photo of Lisa Simpson being kissed from the end of Bart the General. She’s a disreputable woman who slips something in Gabby’s drink, causing him to hallucinate French soldiers overrunning the streets. He goes on a killing spree, killing many of his fellow vets. He also fires a cannonball into the air, which we see flying through the background of many scenes. 

Drinky is very depressed being forced to do expecting dad shit. Gabby winds up on the more-exciting track as a career criminal. He winds up trying to please a pair of jet-setting tomb-raiders who crave a hitman who can deliver a poetic revenge kill. Gabby’s methods are too low-brow for them, causing him to enlist Drinky’s help, who helps him step up his creativity. They wind up capturing the tomb raiding couple’s adversaries and connecting them to a complicated murder machine which involves urethra pinching.

Gabby has a funny plan that backfires; he poisons his targets and then injects their fingers with the antidote, thinking that they will have to eat their own fingers to get the antidote. They are quick to point out that eating the fingers won’t be necessary, since the antidote is still inside them, and working its way into their bloodstream as they speak.

Since Drinky helps Gabby, it’s only fair Gabby return the favor. Gabby helps Drinky get drunk at the baby shower, which causes him to cook his then-unhatched babies into an omelet. As trouble mounts for the duo, the previously-seen cannonball disrupts the signing of the official peace treaty. War’s back on, so luckily our plucky duo now have an excuse to flee back into combat. The final scene shows Drinky, Gabby, and a French combatant all uniting to flee their respective wives, who interrupt the war to chase them on a speedboat, each sitting atop a pile of freshly-laid eggs.

This one has at least one reference to a previous episode; when Gabby goes to jail he’s seen sitting next to the ogre whose part of a trio of conjoined triplets. That’s from the episode Organs. There might have been other references to previous episodes, but I’m too stupid to have picked them out. 

That’s The Drinky Crow Show. I had seen only a handful of episodes before this project, and I think I have a newfound appreciation for it. The pilot episode still grates on me; the animation is too awful. The animation was markedly better in the series, thank god. I grew to appreciate Gabby’s voice, even though I initially criticized it for being too cartoony. I wish they got to do a second season. I wonder if Dino ever tried to pitch Millionaire and co. on trying to do this show as a stop-motion show? Sorry, that’s just a stray thought that just occurred to me while I was cleaning my suicide gun just now. I wish I could expand on it, but duty calls. Bye bye and RIP to me

MAIL BAG

I guess I won't be killing myself today. I have mail to answer. From KON!

Please hate Robot Chicken more, I implore you! It sucks so much!!!

That episode mostly bored me, and the only joke I outright hated was "rape shoes", and I didn't want to sound woke by complaining about it lol :( I basically just didn't write about "rape shoes" can you blame me???

review all the mst3k episodes

Too hard!!

[hiimrenireny]

of course i hyperfixated on a new spider movie and used the fuel of it to crystalize a spidersona idea i had way back when the first came out. of course they have weird powers that just involve playing host to a swarm of actual spiders. of course i did a little writing exercise with them meeting and helping to name a new villain. you can read it if you like.

Spiderlings knew they were being followed. Their suit was heavier with the spiders that were less brave, their webs thinner as a result, each arc between buildings growing shorter and shorter still. It was a feeling remarkably similar to running out of breath, save that those same spiders, hiding in anticipation, were soaking Spiderlings' anxiety. Nothing would be worse for the lot of them than for Gabby's shuddering breath to send them plummeting.

The journey home isn't tenable. Spiderlings pulls a rope taught to yank themselves up, grazing along the side of a building to leave a trail of spiders behind themselves. By the time the web goes slack enough of their cluster has gathered to catch their side against the building, allowing them to crawl the rest of the way up in a stuttered slide-like movement.

Kipping over the railing, they stumble forward. Heights were still a challenge. Of course, they catch themselves, a string of their arachnid companions guiding their foot into place and pooling around them in bursts with each step, retracting in with their breath, flowing out with the tense of their muscle, a tertiary limb providing its own senses. A damn good resource, but one Gabby tries not to over-rely on to the detriment of their other senses. It's late, so it's dark, but a city is never pitch. They can see the door that accesses the rooftop they've stopped on. They can damn near feel it in their bones as spiders that have strung along to the hinges feel vibrations approaching the door. They feel the growing survival instinct of dispersing from the front of the door a second before it bursts-

DUCK.

Spiderlings drops immediately to their knees, leaning back to get as low as possible. A half second later and the door is rendered a modern art piece, splinters shattering around an assailant in some variety of half-mechanical suit. Facemask, wings clipped along a stylish jacket, a massive boot and pneumatic leg brace with an intimidating stinger jutting out of the bottom. It easily rent through the door and leaves a circular impression as the air whips Spiderlings' hair out of the way. They curl to kick a leg out, letting momentum throw them that way as a leg-sized flood of spiders catch the motion and carry them along, affording more time for them to focus on scrambling to their feet to whir around and face this sudden threat.

A second glance doesn't reveal much more than what Spiderlings already gathered, save that the stripes and color of the jacket remind them of, well, a yellowjacket. She's just staring at Gabby. That stinger must be a lot to lug around, her breath sounds heavy... No, wait, vocal filter on the mask, she's giggling.

"I was actually just wrapping up for the night, if we could make this quick...?" Oh, there went their mouth. Funny how it just did that on its own. At least the yellowjacket seemed to find the humor in the situation, she's laughing more. She's even clutching her stomach. Or, her hand is sliding under her jacket it sounds more like. Spider hairs stand on edge. Three parts of the cluster disperse and start to move.

LEFT.

A dart thrown where Spiderlings had just been standing, tossed along with it an idle, "I'm afraid I'll have to impose!"

LEG.

Spiderlings throws their leg up in a circular kick, padded-skirt covered thigh taking the brunt of a dart meant for their hip and throwing it aside. Just completely normal darts then. Thrown very well, but still.

WEB.

A flinging motion of their right arm and a flick of their inner two fingers has Spiderlings tossing a collection of spiders, a single-file arachnid chain keeping them connected to their arm, all ferrying web between them. In but a second, a bundle has formed at the end to catch the last dart from the air. "Could I ask who's imposing??" The exhilaration of those stunts stains Gabby's voice into something frantic.

"I am..." The woman in the yellowjacket begins, in typical self-important fashion. Static and digital whines peel off of every intonation, making it all the more obvious when she huffs and lets her posture slack a bit. "Unsure. I mean, I just finished the stinger tonight, hunting you down was sort of a spur of the moment thing."

"Sn-Snappy and bold decision making can be an admirable trait," comes Spiderlings' reply, alongside a flick of cluster and web from their left hand, aiming for one of yellowjacket's wings from between her arms and body. The must be helping her balance on that ridiculous stinger, so taking them out will limit her mobility. Unfortunately, the stinger hisses with a pneumatic gesture, slotting up into place along the back of the woman's shin. She's fast, but new at this. The web still catches her shoulder and Spiderlings tugs forward, introducing her forehead to a padded elbow, tugging again to bring her over Spiderlings' shoulder.

Unfortunately, those wings aren't just for balance, fluttering with all the force of a rotary saw. Yellowjacket gets a grab on the back of Spiderlings' suit as she goes over their shoulder and rolls forward into an aerial spin, turning the attempted toss back on poor Gabby. They hit the railing with the heavy ring of plastic on metal.

"Thank you! So, wasp is a bit too obvious, isn't it?" Yellowjacket begins, regaining her bearings.

"Hornet, maybe?" Telling her that Spiderlings had been thinking of her as simply yellowjacket felt somehow rude, especially coming from an individual that was still standing back up. The only reason their ears weren't ringing is because they were allowing themselves to be deaf to the sensation, relying more on their spiders' hearing. It gave the woman an odd, slowed, bassy reverb from Spiderlings' perspective.

"Feels a bit tacky... I'unno... Swarm?" Her other jacket pocket this time. Ambidextrou-?

RIGHT.

Spiderlings tucks to the right, falling into a lean against the railing that turns into kicking off of it to close in with their assailant again, all as a dart tinks off the metal behind them. "Might fit me better," Spiderlings offers, alongside a punch, which the woman catches, ducks under, twists-

BACK.

But a sudden knee to her lowered face has her retreating. She doesn't seem to expect the flick of cluster and web off the end of Spiderlings' boot, spiders quickly severing the rope and retracting to leave web splattered on her lenses.

"Augh- God-" She tugs at the web a few times to no effect, before pressing a button along its side, a burst of gas from along the mouthpiece shriveling the web. "How about something more grandiose? I do plan to build drones or something, but I suppose I am just me for now. Khepri!"

In the time it has taken yellowjacket to unblind herself, Spiderlings has hopped up on the railing, having pre-spun enough web to swing a few buildings with relative confidence. "Deific so soon? That's an ego." Oh, god, why do they always say that stuff to people that can kill them?

"Fair enough, I'll aim for a lower title for now..."

They both shout "Queen!" at the same time, just as Queen throws another stinger-kick at Spiderlings and they leap from the building in turn.

This is a tough time today

This guy is really hitting himself it's not his people he's laying off but these are people that work overseas a lot of them are from special agencies to keep track of things to pull them out so this idiot is saying that he's doing the Mac plan and he doesn't have the ships and he doesn't have the power and he says he's going to hit things and blow stuff up like the stashes and caches to threaten everybody and we noticed that he was serious he wants to blow up cities and so forth of his own and and attack a certain areas in general areas and that's what he said he's going to do all of it is last minute stuff so everybody's prepping for that and he's just going to sit here and say this jerk off stuff and people are going to keep beating him up and killing him and killing his people it's really disgusting and yeah it's nobody's birthday nothing is f****** happening nothing has changed except you're losing your devices which actually somewhere else most of them are in the Parks about 90% of them and the 10% than the left about 5% are out and 4.9% are disabled so I don't know why that's funny but they're a bunch of jackasses around here and they've always been jackasses I guess.

So the CIA is going after them all over the world too

Thor Freya

These people are asking for it all the damn time and everywhere people are going after them and soon they'll be gone and it is just awful we are nasty can I see that being poor during this event is probably nasty. Uncle Phil is taking a break yeah the news is true everyone's fighting to get him out of there it's been about 3 weeks or more and he is in the morgue and people hate these idiots and he is having trouble he's laughing about something else it's going to be this huge deal and people don't know about venom and Gabby Gifford's side and she looks kind of like that sometimes and it is Caroline and Ghost riders in the sky are from venom and people are horrified when they see them terrified.

--there's a huge number of people that says tons of stupid s*** and Trump is one of them and yeah he can't handle the radiation really at all and it's trying not to go to the bathroom number one and number two. We're about 12 minutes into it it's only a few more minutes but he says I don't feel anything a little bigger

More in a moment

Thor Freya

Did you have a couple more things in the slide it is an incredible day for a couple reasons to me this is starting off a huge event and that's with Uncle Phil and I didn't know he was out it's not true but we kind of said it and our Angel here Kalel he doesn't get it until now so I guess okay it's going on and it's big because he'll go out there and get funding from someone who passed away I don't see these freaky little leprechauns running all over the place angry I think it's time Cruise you'll have to come out a little bigger that's one thing

--the other thing is he is under duress considerable the rest and people are recognizing me seeing it and it's starting to change and Trump is a huge ass and getting lots of attention

--Saturn is going around the other side of the Sun and he says that's more like it and it really is except Uncle Phil it's a big event because of what that's going to happen to my husband will get money and stuff in it and Tommy F sees it it's a complete idiots about it

--then on the 22nd and that's when I might relocate and it's moving time and he says I can get the U-Haul ship. It's not necessary I have my own thank you very much though. You don't need you doing that it's a mess I don't care if you look nervous of the counter and it works. Oh yeah I see why he says. I've been getting ready and training and yeah he's a little bit numb about it just worried it's coming up quick just got to get ready and there's a lot of stuff to do they're saying they have a schedule in there on it he's got to go get something to make sure it works and he's going to stay behind and help me move yeah I'll be okay and he'll be okay it's because I'm okay and it says this other things he can do and I do get that
