Renaissance Faire TF141 x reader
So I know of tf141 in regency and renaissance eras. But what about these guys just simply going to a good old fashioned, 21 century, Renaissance fair!!! (I did my best for gender neutral!)
TW: sexual content(mild, mdni), more just thought then actual writing. Poor editing
800+ words
These are my first thoughts
Kyle is a nerd, full “garbs” he made more personal as he got more adult money. Majority of his(final) props are handmade but he did buy the fucking coolest custom sword that just scratched that itch. (1,500 he would have burned if he couldnt have it. Money be damned) will do a couple's “garb”, his favorite one is the high fae (gaz)/wood elf (you). His favorite solo garb is his wendigo full suit, he gets the most pictures and likes chasing/scaring people as they pass. Mostly there for the vibes and to nerd out and forget about the world for a few hours. Knows how to sew. At the end of the day, he's the best to decompress with, talking about the day and all the cool things you did together. Showering together and rubbing circulation back to any body part that might need it and then some.
Johnny is kinda easy, full kilt, but shirts come off once he gets through the gate. Has on viking war paint on his face, patchy streaks across his face. He's getting a huge viking inspired Henna tattoo on his chest, arm, shoulder? One big ass one over it all? Two people worked on it, took 45 mins, and was a little patchy in the staining, he obviously didn’t leave it alone long enough. Plays all the battle games, wins the strong man category. Braided mohawk, whether it's you or a vendor, yes. Fucking loves showing off to his pretty elf, prince/princess, or really anything you want to be. Unless you match him the most couple thing will probably be matching hair ornaments. Wants a war ax, but by year three, he gets it. He's still as horny as he is anyday, eating you out under your pretty skirt, smearing some of the paint on his face on your thighs. And with a raging boner for the majority of the day, watching you watch him, he's begging for a handjob on the way home, after winning the strong man award, he's got you in a full nelson, right in front of the full length mirror.
Johnny and his bird got Simon to go. First year he is not dressing up or buying himself anything. When his bird falls in love with the fair he's taking them to get fitting for the costume they want. Likes that everyone there is a little weird, hates how hot it is. You're going to be fanning this man like a king so he doesn't get heat stroke but get a nice shady corner at one of the shows and he finds you enjoying yourself. Year two, wore his eye paint over his eye and forehead, got a kilt from Johnny the Christmas before, black, and a thin poet shirt. Big scary dog energy and fuck does her look good. You're definitely late due to a last minute blowjob. He finds out why johnny likes kilt so much, easiest fucking access. The handiest, tugging you around more than letting you lead. Won the ax throwing. Again he's got his hand on you, if you've got a lot to your costume, hes telling you to start taking it off when you get to the car when you leave, the chemise is fine, perfect even.
John Price goes because his partner likes going, walking in normal and walking out a changed man. He found a dragon shoulder puppet two hours in. Made a home at the hookah lounge. Fucking loves his pretty love gorgouse and happy, so its a no brainer that your his favrote part but also looks around at all the cool costumes and wants to participate with you. Is either a dragon rider or the dragon itself. Will need the most help getting ready, his makeup is slay though. Likes picking out home decor the most with you, will not admit it out loud how much he loves the dragon hoard your home is slowly becoming as each year passes. Speaking of, once you're home with all your new trinkets, he's got in bed, talking about finally having his favorite treasure back where it belongs, satisfied under him.
They compete at the ax throwing. Simon and John are most likely to stand in line for food while you watch a show. Johnny doesn't want to be alone for that long and Kyle gets the meal and show instead of the vendors. They all fuck with the music, idk its good and they get it.

Tim Drake Fics Part 2
Pretty Boys and Identity Problems by DarnGoshit
In an effort to get over his crush on Robin, Kon pursues a relationship with a civilian Gothamite, Tim Drake.
Or, Tim accidentally Hannah Montana’s his crush... and it works?
Leap, Fall, Fly by malcyon
He tries to use his voice, “You have one of my shirts?” Tim looks at him, amused.
“Dude, I have, like, four.”
*****
Kon figures some stuff out. Tim helps.
A Minor Inconvenience by Sishal
Tim knows he shouldn't make potentially dangerous decisions on next to no sleep. Ah well, it will be fine, right?
Only A03 users can read this fic.
Another Mistake - or is it? by Sishal
Tim makes another stupid mistake. Jason is there to pick up the pieces.
Only A03 users can read this fic
Awesome Big Brother by Sishal
Tim is maybe infiltrating the wrong club. To be honest, he's not really sure. But he will at least try. Or, well, he would if Jason would let him.
Only A03 users can read this fic.
Tired Brothers by Sishal
Tim is tired.��Really tired. So how bad must it be that he’s the epitome of rested when compared to his brothers.
Only A03 users can read this fic.
Every Letter Counts by timbitsandpieces
Tim would much rather be taking pictures of Batman and Robin than literally anything school-related, up to and including this stupid English essay he had to do by tomorrow. He’d been putting it off, and was actually putting it off even further, when he remembered one thing. Jason Todd, aka Robin, was an English nerd. Maybe Tim could do both.
Robin landed right next to Tim, immediately scanning the surrounding area for danger. “What’s wrong, kid? Are you okay? What -”
“I’m failing English. Or, I will if you don’t help me with my homework. Please.”
“I - what?”
“My English homework. My essay’s due tomorrow. On The Outsiders. And the role of physical violence in it. You need to help me.”
All He Could Bear by Kgraces
Tim has been avoiding the Bats since he managed to save Bruce from the timestream. He needs to use the Batcomputer for a case, and he plans on leaving before Dick and Damian return from patrol. His carefully timed exit goes awry when Bruce makes an unexpected visit to the Cave.
For the first time since Bruce's return, they talk.
Bruce realizes just how much his third son is hurting and is determined to fix things.
No More Dead Robins by Kgraces for alwaysbeenhim
Tim's heart stops for fifteen minutes after flying solo gets him into trouble he can't outrun.
Jason is determined to fix things between the kid and the rest of the Bats. He won't let Tim be on his own again.
It's Called: Freefall by Kgraces
In the wake of the Widower's attack, Tim Drake has been left for dead. Badly injured and clinging to consciousness, Tim thinks he's hallucinating when he suddenly finds himself back in Gotham. He soon realizes he's not in his Gotham, but he's somehow slipped into another universe, one in which Jason Todd never died. He's expecting to be cast aside, just as he was in his own universe, but that doesn't happen.
Bruce finds a broken bird and takes him under his wing. Tim somehow finds a family, despite his worst fears.
He Knows by Ortholeine
Timothy Drake is a civilian, a normal boy. Kind of. He's normal in that he keeps secrets and has some hobbies. Those secrets and hobbies, though, are a little unique...and completely, 100% revolve around the crime-fighting family of Gotham. A good friend of the Waynes, Tim finds himself dodging his heroes' attempts to reveal their identities to him in a misguided attempt to keep the status quo. No one seems to want to let it rest, unfortunately for Timothy Drake.
We're Not Driving (How did we get here?) by TimTheToaster (tabletoptime) for ReplacementRobin
Tim stared at his phone, as if that would change what was on the screen.
Dick Grayson @FlyingDGrayson
It took some doing, and in some cases a little blackmail, but we've finally got the whole family together for a movie night! #WayneManor #movienight #familytime #schedulingisanightmare

Everybody's Heard (Bird is the Word) by TimTheToaster (tabletoptime)
5 times Batman heard other heroes talking about his wayward brother,
And 1 time they were talking about his son.
Takes a Little Time, Takes a Lotta Twine (To Get Us Back Together) by TimTheToaster (tabletoptime)
Tim was in Gotham.
Tim had pretty specifically been avoiding thinking about Dick as much as possible for the last few weeks. For the last year, really. No need to open that can of carnivorous worms.
Dick had other plans.
RedBird of Friendliness (In the Outlet by the Lightswitch) by TimTheToaster (tabletoptime)
5 times villains had something to say about Tim Drake.
And 1 time he was there to talk back.
buy the ticket, take the ride by Anonymous
Tim had always figured that if he ever woke up in Vegas sans-memory, it would be when he was older than fourteen. But there were some things he couldn’t control, and apparently whatever had happened last night that he didn’t remember was one of them.
Don't Feed the Birds (or they'll keep coming back Writer_loves_tropes
Red Hood is crossing the street one night and he's hit by a car. Tim Drake scrambles out of the passenger seat, but his Uber driver doesn't stick around to face Red Hood's wrath. Tim is 13 years old, so Hood knows he wasn't the driver, but Tim still wants to make up for what happened, so he says he owes Hood a favor. That is the beginning of an unlikely truce that turns into friendship that turns into little brother acquisition.
aka: Tim owes Red Hood a favor and through a series of back and forth favors, he gets adopted by the Red Hood and the Outlaws.
Enjoy!!

[ After more than a year I’ve finally put my hands on my Junzumi fam to give them a slooooow redesign, because it was necessary to give some logic and “ personality “ to people exclusively wearing shirts and cardigans, but also because I just love playing with my Junzumi trash, so this was just a good excuse like always ~~. Btw, I’m also planning to draw the ✨ uncles✨ + Chiaki, as she is also part of Rapsodia , whether she wants to or not ahahahh. ]
I had already written drafts about Junpei and Izumi in the past, but I will put them here again, more polished, along with the kids’.
• Junpei Shibayama in Orimoto, 41: International star tenor, occasional VA and narrator in children stuff, former singing teacher (in Covid period), part-time waiter ( *cough* restaurant co-owner).
• Izumi Orimoto, 40: Chef, owner of two restaurants, Gambero Rosso’s favourite guest, Slowfood member, DIY stylist.
• Tomoki Orimoto (Toto), 5: last year of kindergarten, trains enthusiast, expert in digging in his father’s toolbox, little friend of the living room’s piano.
• Miranda Orimoto (Ran), 8: third year of elementary school, school recitals lover (but never being picked for solo singing roles), rookie ballerina, butterflies nerd.
• Koujirou Orimoto (Kou), 10: fifth year of elementary school, striker with lightning speed (in his dreams), disasters at the stove but 1st fan of his mother’s cooking (so he thinks), can imitate birds’ chirps surprisingly decent white voice.

After the Fisher King | Spencer Reid x fem!reader
Chapter two - Chapter three
Pairing | Spencer Reid x fem!reader
Warnings | friends to lovers!?
Summary | You're always ahead of 'em, it seems we got another nerd.
Author's note | English ain't my native language, yet I still writing because I want to share the stories inside my head
You start living alone, since the moment moved to work for the FBI, especially in Quatico at the BAU department, surely that you missed your parents, but it was time for the little bird to leave its nest. Although to make you a company you have a trained female German Shepherd, only the both of you sharing a home. (IN a condominium of houses, kind of a safer option, both of your closest neighbours are an old lady and the other is a solo mom with two kids)
The last case you're with Hotchner team, the team that you belong to, you were the only that look askance at Bruno, you reported that to Gideon and he said:–"You always are inclined to think most people are the ones that you should mistrust and...You always get the right unsub, but now, wait a little and maintain this information for yourself, I'll talk with Bruno now."
When you left the room Spencer was following with curiosity:–"What were you two talking about?"
You just can't ignore and sound rude, so you stop and turns to him.
–I think I might know who is the spy..-he interrupts with ease.
Since you two met you were also a strange "kid" from the rest of 'em, you never drank alcohol, not even used to go to pub's, while on working you always were putting a puzzle together or sketching something that resembles the case the team was working, you're quiet most of time thinking while the others start with brainstorming to set up the unsub profile, but you, you always mistrusted people on these cases, except your team, you're the quickiest to ensure the final answer.
At first it was kind tough to get in with the team, although ye are finally were able to communicate with them, Spencer as both of you has the same age he feels comfortable.
– Who do you think it is?-he's by your side now.
– The headmaster...-you say with a unaudible tone, yet he didn't understood you, so he leans down making you blush.
– I didn't understood, could you repeat again?-he leans his face right by your face side, even being an agent this doesn't means you're free from feelings, you mind went blank for milliseconds but thou swear it was minutes.
Spencer Reid heard you plenty well.
– I said, I think 99% our unsub is the old mate of Gideon, the one that is at the command and I'm talking like that because i don't want anybody discovering beforehand it's time, Gideon asked me to hide it.
Reid thought for a couple of seconds.
– Where is the 1%?
– Really?-you rolled your eyes, but he doesn't smile yet still with his blues eyes gluet at your figure filled with curiosity.
– The 1% is just if I made a mistake judging his character, though I know I'm right.
– I believe in you, yet our team should still work on the case.. I won't tell anybody until its time.
– Thanks?
– You know.- he stands in front of you.-You could have said no, that it was confidential your thoughts.-you chuckle unbelievable.
– Why would I do this?
– Because Gideon asked you to do so.- yup, but as you have a crush on him you wouldn't deny it and if you were one more time right, who knows, you like comoliments.
– Because we're mates and you can say, if I were right, "y/l/n was right since the beginning, again".-he giggles shaking his head.
– I don't know what to say, really, but since you're working with us, sometimes you threaten my position and also Gideon's.-you laugh uncomfortably and he noticed apologising quickly.– Sorry I didn't meat to offend you, what I-I...-he stutters.– I'm trying to say is with you, with us, I have to give my best and be by your side.-you opened your eyes surprised, what was he saying?- How do you do that, always guessing the right unsub with lack information?
– Wanna know how?
– Yeah, tell me your secret and I promise I'll keep it, I mean it and I won't tell Gideon.
It was amazing this interaction, you're the first person Spencer was able to maintain a conversation without making him felt uncomfortable.
—Aristotle once said: "No great mind has ever existed without a touch of madness", besides it's all my paranoia telling me, they say, to think outside the box and visualise, however, my paranoia is always thinking at the same time in and outside the box now, I guess that our problem is inside the box.-his face brightened, when he was ready to ask one more thing, Hotchner called Spencer.
You're at the hospital waiting for any news of agent Elle when you got a call from Reid.
–You were right, our unsub was Bruno and Gideon mentioned that you were the first to guess it right, is Elle alright?
–Hmmm, thanks.-you say sheepishly.-And yes, she will survive, Gideon is with her now, Nadir and the children are safe?
–Yes, and Hassan is under arrest.
You were able to smile when he said that.
Case closed
[Time breaks]
–Woah.- when you arrived at home last night you received a phone call from Hotchner demanding you show up at BAU, you thought you would enjoy your holiday travelling around London visiting historical museums and libraries, you paid for your ticket and even told your cousin you would pay if he/she helped you looking after your precious dog and now, for what? No London anymore baby.
At BAU, you sit with them around the table.
–What happened? I was supposed to take a plane to London today.
– I know.-Gideon says.-But Hotchner and I received a peculiar message, I received a head in a box, at the only place I thought I were safe with a note, mentioning your last name.-you opened your eyes in shock.
–What it says?
–Not only it says something as well Hotchner also received a phone call that somehow connect you.
– Then..?
– It says "The magician shall not help..."-Hotchner says coming inside the room, stern look as always.
You huff shrinking in the chair.
– and mine says "y/n shall stay out out out out out" repeatedly more than 20 times.
–Wow.-you smile with no humour.–Why? What does it mean?-you already know why.
– It means our unsub wants you out of this case.-Gideon says.
Garcia show up shameful of her acts, just for playing a silly game it exposed everybody position, except yours, why? Well, you used vpn, you're good at blurring your information, your address and even when you're out making your supermarket shopping.
– He has information about everyone.-poor Garcia.-He invaded my-my system, because I was playing a game, but not of BAU computers, yet in mine laptop, however I need to connect.
Yup, you don't blame her, well because you hide your own information, you house isn't addressed correctly and the unsub couldn't get a good picture of you, he knows that you're smart, he don't want the this case ending soon. He knew with you in, you would be the one going to discovery his profile.
Summing up, Hotchner had to ask you to retire only in this case, but you shouldn't go home alone, so Hotchner told an agent to follow with you back home and stay there. But you have a stubborness and reckless behaviour, which Reid knows as well the rest of the team, besides this, when Elle was shot, the plan to make you get rid of this case went downhill, now you're in and you brought your dog.
–Can I pet, what is the name of your dog?-Spencer asks you, getting you surprised, the dog just stared at you as if asking "Can he, mom?Tell my name".
You alert him:-Just be careful, she's trained, any false move and you got yourself a stump.-Reid hesitate and you laughed.-I'm kidding, just be gentle and it's Nala, you know, Lion King, Simba's wife.
He breathe in relief with a grin, he leans down so he could smooth her fur, she accepted without growling, what's a win.
She liked him, but you wouldn't tell, it's not important now.
The rest of the case went okay, the whole time you were found helping Garcia to check the information and between this time you were able to be alone with Reid deciphering the riddles.
He told you about his mother when he called the sanitarium and requested for her presence.
Your dog was asleep near the couch while you were alone with his mother, you were able to maintain a friendly conversation, talking about medieval literature, Spencer saw it before entering the room question his mother.
When everything settled down, Spencer wanted to talk with you in private which you all willingly agreed, when he asked it was so funny the way he asked while gesturing with his hands, you noticed he was nervous.
–So after all this mad case and the explosion afterwards you still up to a "meeting", where's the others?-you look around the table searching for them, you wondered if he'd invited the rest of the team, yet he did not.
Spencer is with pink tints in his face, you got you answer but you will wait for his.
– Well... I didn't invited the rest of the team, only you.
– And why? Did you want to question me why our unsub dismissed miserably my part on this case?
– No, this I already know the answer, you're like Merlin, the sorcerer, you're able to hide your address ip, so you're also a computer genius.
– You flatten me, yet I'm not into TI and software area, but I know a couple of things.
– Much to manage and hide your localisation from the F.B.I and even CIA.-you rolled your eyes with wit.
– You got me now.-you chuckle.
It seemed as a date, yet you strongly disagreed on that matter, you didn't fit his standard, he kissed an actress cases ago.
[...] Spencer escort you to your house, both of you all the way long speaking of nerd stuff, every single topic he was captivated by you and you for him, whatsoever you couldn't be in love, love is not for you.
–Now you're the only one that knows where I live, don't split okay.-you blinked opening hour door.-It's late and I don't think I can't let you go.-oh boy, his stomach churned, yet yours were in full adrenaline but keep with a cool face.– Come in, Nala already knows you.
He hesitated, but you're good at convincing, since the Fisher King case is not safe to be let alone, him in this case, you have your loyal Nala.
Nala is sleep on her own bed near the TV desk in the living room.
–Doctor Reid, I have only my room, you can stay with my bed, I stay with sofa, I don't mind at all.
– No no no, I can use the sofa and you stay with your own bed, please.-you cross your arms staring at him.
– Are you sure?
– Definitely, no worry with me.
You rolled your eyes again with a sheepishly smile.
–I'll change, do you mind?-Reid just reddened shaking negatively his head.
– No no, I don't and..
– I have men clothes, do you want?-for a moment his shy grin fades as quickly as your humorous expression.
– I bought a couple of jumpers and pants at the shopping mall, so I could use when..when..
–When?-Reid stares at you making you feel small.
– When I feel alone, I mean, I have no time to date or anything else rather work or read something to get me out of this world, with male clothes, bigger than my size, I feel comfy.
Oh he understood, first time that he seems you showing any feelings, everybody thought you were more cold-hearted than Hotchner, always cool in any case, as if nothing could surprise you anymore at such young age. How did you ended at BAU?
Well, as far as you can remember you only studied, an exchange program in the UK for 2 years and the other years at the USA and here we are, working at BAU alongside a beautiful colleague that you don't mind admiring from a far.
–I don't know if I..
– It's okay if you don't want and I swear, they're all clean and tidy.
– I didn't meant that they weren't is just
– Hey, I'm not obliging you, but I have an extra toothbrush, never used.
– Thanks.
Minutes later you appeared with a huge navy blue jumper with a star wars short, free hair nothing on it, his heart skipped a beat.
–Hungry? We didn't eat anything for a cozy night and as you're my guest, milk?
–Hm?-poor man is frozen.-I'd like, please.
You both were all smiley here and there while eating a soft lunch before bed time, it wasn't 00h yet.
–Poor Nala is staring at us.-Reid mentions making you look at her puppies eyes.–Can I give a piece of this bread/crackers?
–A medium to small size, just don't make her get used to it, don't fall for these puppy eyes.
He already fell for it, he fell for Nala's owner as smart as he is, he knows that you wouldn't get any of his feelings towards you, but inly if he didn't make a move...
[03h23 a.m]
You couldn't sleep well, so you get up, the funny and silly things is you're hearing voices and low growls trying to communicate .
The hallway heading to the kitchen, you has a roundy wood table and in there you see a sleeplessness Reid with your trained hunt dog, playing, you stood there with arms crossed staring at them, until they stop playing.
– Can't sleep?
– Yeah...
– Me neither.-you come a cross his chair side.-What are you doing, reading one of my books from my living room shelf?
‐ Sorry, I...
– Reid, we're friends, might not be best-friends, but I can believe you with my precious books.
– Wait.. We can be best friends?
– Hmm, I guess we can.-you smile without showing your teeth.
– I didn't know this was the way to claim somebody as best friends, you know, I thought this bond was supposed to happen without we even notice.
– Well, it can happens too, but I guess I'm making this clear now.-thumbs up, you make him smile again.
You both keep talking the whole night until you two fell asleep on the table near each other company, your hand touching his, his fingers slightly caressing yours, you didn't felt anything, you sleep like a damn rock, however Spencer is an early person, so with less than two hours to get up and go to work, he sees you and his hand caressing your, when he's aware he stopped yet still looking your hands near each other, you mutter something under your sleep.
He is now aware that he's fully awaken.
He doesn't want to wake you up, but he died anyway shaking you.
-Hmmm.-you unconsciously pushed him away.-No more cases for today pleasee, I just want to watch a period movie and feel in luuuv.-you complained with a tired tone.-but I work work work work in a madness world of crime.
-Y/n..-he approaches you again.-Wake up, we gotta go to BAU, you need to change and I'll head home.
You wake up atartled by his close presence, he gives you a smile.
–Morning, agent...I mean, y/n.-he says close next to your face with a husky voice.
Oh lord J.

Loopy (OC) Trivia
It's hard to believe I was in high school when I first got into Bully and made Loopy, and I'm turning 23 in 10 days! Now she's a great big love letter to who I used to be in high school, which to this day has made up the majority of the most tumultuous times in my life, even if it's been longer now since I graduated than the time I spent there.
Anyways, since I'm feeling sentimental, here's a bit of trivia about my gal!
Loopy's surname was decided before her given name. I wanted her to have some sort of tie to canon, but to keep it minimal because I don't like altering established things too much. "Stimson" came from the name of Gord Vendome's chauffeur that he mentions by name exactly once in a cutscene. That driver is Loopy's uncle.
Loopy's first name, Lorein, was the middle name of my great great grandma!
When I first came up with her character, I wanted her to have a bird motif. I couldn't figure out much of a way to make it work, but I kept it as a minor character trait of hers that she really likes watching the birds when she's outside.
Loopy was originally going to have a color palette of green and purple, back when I envisioned her as part of the Nerds.
I wrote out whole fake missions she could give Jimmy like scripting game cutscenes, including what chapter they appear, what causes them to trigger, and their winstates. These are still sitting on my computer somewhere.
When I played Disco Elysium last year, I made an OC for that, and she's literally just Loopy grown up! DE/CCE crossover...?
When I made Loopy, I was kinda obsessed with shipping her with someone because I was a lonely teenager and wanted to project onto my self insert. Now that she's a representation of who I was in high school, and I never ended up dating anyone, her relationship fate is pretty much set in stone. A solo agent!
Loopy makes a point to call every nicknamed character by their real and full first name. This means I had to make a few up for writing her. Some I just guessed based off common shortenings, like Dan is short for Daniel and Thad is short for Thaddeus, but for characters like Fatty, I made up new names.
Sidenote not about Loopy but about me; when I looked up to see if "Bo" was short for anything, I found Bo Jackson's real life namesake has the same birthday as me: November 30th! Neat.
And here's a little bonus about Atticus because compared to Loopy, I've hardly posted anything about him.
I was originally gonna have Atticus be from Virginia but retconned it for one joke.
"You look alright, for a Prep."
"Now, what's that supposed to mean?"
"All the local families are inbred."
"Ah, well that explains it. I'm from no local family."
"Where are you from, then?"
"West Virginia."
#I have family in West Virginia I'm allowed to make that joke#bully cce#bully oc#bully canis canem edit#putting this in main tags since everyone else seems to put their ocs in the main tags#loopy#atticus w pruden

More splatoon x pikmin doodles !!!
I always come back to Dingo and Yonny 💀 pom, shep, and collin are sitting in my file but trying to finalize thatttt
As per usual, notes in the keep reading~
Dingo is sooooo the definition of the fuck it we ball in the frontlines, mainly playing skirmisher weapons. You need the backline to the frontline soooo Yonny fucks around with anchor weapons B) Mainly E-liter but doesnt mind flexing to other anchors like splatlings. Yonny is definitely the brains behind the operation lmaoo being the shotcaller of the two, Dingo hears and goes LMAOO yet Dingo has the habit of going anyways💀 the fighter mindset.
Dingo is definitely a solo grinder whenever Yonny isn’t available, hes a solid player mechanically but tends to struggle in teamplay. So he can make do in soloq for now- Yonny is alot more of the study type outside of games, lots of map n strategy review so his game knowledge is definitely up there. Backlines just overall have that birds eye in game too so hes solid at just planning in game overall, the backline of all time. Though he does carry a more anchor by definition playstyle, playing more on the defensive minimizing risk if possible.

Sception Reads Cass Cain #36
Batgirl (2000) #16 - July 2001 Writer: Puckett Pencils: Scott Inks: Campanella Colors: Wright
Another solo one shot, another resonant and memorable stand alone story that Cass fans from back in the day will remember clearly. Got a bit more time to work with, gonna try and pull some more images this time, because the art in this one is just really good. Honestly, this issue is peak early days Batgirl - the kind of story she was literally made to tell, and it's really well executed. If I had to pick a single issue of Cass's entire Batgirl run as sort of a 'this is what she's all about' encapsulation for someone completely new to Cass and her book, this would be on the short list. If you've never read her ongoing before, i strongly recommend you actually read the issue for yourself before the summary here.
The issue opens on a bunch of kids playing a mean game where they throw a rat in the air and get points if it lands in a circle they drew on the ground. The nerd in my has to point out that it's kind of unrealistic. Rats aren't quite as fall resistant as, say, cats, but while they could be hurt or maybe even killed by a fall from only as high as a grade school kid could throw them, most are going to scamper away and none are going to land so badly that they splatter like a water balloon.
Anyway, it's gross and its cruel but also kind of cute as the kids argue about the rules and 'nuh uh' each other, and Scott draws their faces really expressively, and the whole scene starts with a rat silhouetted in front of the moon mid toss in an image that's as aesthetically compelling as it is disturbing in context before plummeting back down
I could talk about how Cass is flying high through the city as Batgirl while her mental state is hurtling towards a painful crash, but that's probably reading too much into it.
Anyway, after the first splat there's this kind of cool sequence where the next kid throws the rat up and they all run back and look down at the circle...
Only the rat never comes down, and when they look up like 'where did it go?' there's Cass
The image of Cass swooping down from above with the kids all looking up is pretty cool, and the way the panels create a pacing for the scene is really good. Effective storytelling through sequential art.
Cass drops down, and the kids scatter. Not a situation that needs any more intervention then that, and we get a nice panel showing just her hands and feet as she crouches down to gently let the rat go. A pretty standard inverse kick-the-dog moment to establish Cass as the good guy by having her be nice to an animal, but for those who have been reading along from the first issues of her book it also reminds us of how Bruce once praised her for being 'gentle', and how despite everything that's happened that part of her is still in there.
As the other kids scatter, one stays behind to kick off the main plot for the issue. I like how awkward Cass is here, towering over this kid when she's used to being around allies and enemies taller than herself, not knowing how to talk to him.
Also, I haven't talked about it in a bit, but I just really love the way Scott draws Cass as Batgirl? Her proportions with her big head emphasizing her youth. The way you can make out her expressions despite the full face mask - and the way he gives her the same expressions that he gives Bruce. Her prominent jaw line making her feel tough and defiant and stubborn. The way you can make out her expression through the mask, the sleek lines of how her cape drapes from her neck to the point shoulders and then down, or the way the cape flows when he draws her in motion, all with an oil-slick feel that likely owes as much to Campanella's inking as to Scott's pencil work.
There are aspects of how others draw Cass in her batgirl suit that I like - most recently I love how Leonardo Romero draws the pointy ears on her cowl in the recent Birds of Prey run, it gives Cass a retro feel that really fits his vintage newspaper comic aesthetic. But Scott's version of Cass-as-Batgirl is always how I'll see the character in my mind.
The kid, Tim, takes Cass back to his home, a messy apartment with a mattress just dropped on the floor. You can feel the poverty, and start to form an image of this kid's dad in your head as, like, a decent man pushed into crime by desperation to provide for his kid.
An impression that Tim then explicitly reinforces.
The scene cuts to the bank mid robbery, and we meet someone who seems to fit the mold - Jake. The way Scott draws Jake's expressions, you can tell he doesn't want to be there, and when asked what he's going to do with the money they steal, he just says he's going to pay some bills. But when a security guard surprises them, Jake is startled and shoots him, almost by accident....
The boss, Chaco, compliments Jake on the kill, rubbing in how this isn't a guy who would normally do something like that with the 'didn't think you had it in you' line, and as they walk away you can see how horrified Jake is at what he's done.
In contrast, Chaco shows just how comfortable he is with killing by shooting one of his own guys point blank when he realizes the guy was stealing traceable jewelry from the vault, the way the panel suddenly goes red, and Chaco's calm expression just the panel before, emphasizing how sharp and sudden the violence is.
Chaco's a professional. Ruthless and dispassionate, about the job, about killing, even with his allies. He clearly didn't even feel any malice towards the guy he shot - he was downright friendly with all of his crew, even Jake, just a few panels ago, and that friendliness was probably even genuine. But this guy became a liability, and Chaco doesn't have any time or pity for liabilities.
It's around this time that they notice Jake is missing. More liabilities.
A couple of the crew find Jake in an alley, overwhelmed by guilt over killing that security guard, and again, I just have to say, the art in this issue is really good. The perspective in that first panel looking down, with the shadows stretching forward guns first, the expressions on Jake and the guy who has a gun drawn on him, the detail on the background cobblestones & brickwork. All really good.
Anyway, this is when Cass shows up, in terrifying shadow form, knocking out the two goons with the guns in as many panels.
Cass sees Jake, like us assumes he's Tim's dad, and takes pity on him. For Tim's sake.
But Jake is overwhelmed by guilt.
Guilt is one thing Cass understands.
Tim wanted Cass to stop his dad before he did something bad, something he wouldn't be able to forgive himself for, something Tim wouldn't be able to forgive him for. But Cass was too late. Once again, she's failed.
Only, Tim isn't Jake's son.
He's Chaco's son.
Chaco the remorseless killer. Chaco who can be friendly one moment and commit murder the next. Cass wasn't too late to stop Tim's dad from doing something bad, Tim's dad had been bad the whole time.
And bad dads are also something Cass understands.
I need to take a step out of the story for a moment here though to talk again about how Scott draws Cass, and in particular the bit about conveying her facial expressions through the mask. Scroll up a bit and look at the downcast resignation on her face when Jake says he has to pay for what he's done, then the surprise when he says he isn't Tim's father, and then the absolute fury here.
The expressions are so vivid, and carry so much of the load when it comes to conveying Cass's thoughts and emotions and personality.
Bringing back another old chestnut of this blog, Cass can speak now, and think in words and sentences, but there are no thought bubbles or narration blocks in the entire issue. The book just doesn't need them, not when Scott's Art is able to put everything going on in these characters heads right on their faces.
Cass lays into Chaco, stopping only when she realizes he's already unconscious, and you can feel the sharp snap of her attacks in how the panels are layed out.
Bringing back another old chestnut, the action panels are practically perfunctory. They're there, and they're good, but there's no back and forth, there's never any question of the bank robbers so much as landing a hit on Cass. Who will win in a physical fight was never where the story's tension was. It was all about the emotional stakes.
Tim arrives on scene just in time to see his dad carted off on a stretcher to the hospital, and as Cass takes him home he looks back, through the spikes on her gauntlet, as through through the prison bars that are going to separate him from his father for the rest of his life.
And the last page is this somber, heartbreaking moment of Cass trying to console Tim that just because his father is a bad person, doesn't mean he is too, and it's obvious that Cass is thinking about herself and David Cain here, but while I might be reading too much into the panel, the way Cass's shadow forms Bruce's symbol to me draws attention to the fact that Cass has two fathers, and just because one of them isn't a murderer doesn't mean he isn't also bad.
...
So yeah, this really is more or less the archetypal Cass Cain Batgirl (2000) issue. A somber, contemplative tone. Street level / no super-villains or over the top scenarios. A focus on the individual humanity of the minor characters, including criminals who would be faceless mooks in any other bat book. Story and characterization conveyed through expressive artwork and deliberate panel use rather than blunt narration, taking advantage of the specific strengths of the comic medium. Violence and action scenes sharp, short and snappy rather than heavily drawn out, with the main conflict grounded in personal and emotional stakes. Narrative themes - guilt, parenthood - that tie directly back to Cassandra's core themes, history, and character motivations. All concisely contained within a single issue episode that works as a stand alone story.
Although there might be a bit too much emphasis on the stand alone part. Sometimes Cass's stories do come back to be referenced again later, we'll have an example of that next week, but we never see Tim again, we never see Cass following up or checking on him which is kind of a shame.

Sonic the Comic Liveblog: Issue 84
Idk about anyone else, but I think Sonic using swimming aids is cute, like when he wears a lifejacket in the olympic games series
You know, I should actually try to learn about the StC artists myself. I have seen people mention them when talking about StC before.
New story with Sonic and the Chaotix! …man this artwork makes you realise how odd Vector's classic era design was.
Sonic: A god-like, all-powerful, perpectually pissed-off version of me is running amok in your home turf Espio: cool story bro
It does make for an interesting conflict though. I don't believe the Chaotix have ever witnessed Super, so they don't know how destructive he really is, meanwhile Sonic had recently spent the past few weeks concinved he had unwittingly murdered his friends.
Lmao that did make me laugh a bit
What a name for a group of people. "yeah bruv, we're The Bigots"
The cops are literal pigs. Amazing
It's a little funny hearing Knuckles talk about sleeping in the open when off the top of my head the only incarnation of him that lives in a house is Movie!Knuckles
Surprise crossover with Emmerdale /jk
Knuckles gets casually offered beer
Oooohhh… are we going in the 'idyllic village secretly has a cult' direction?
Unformately I cannot look at this panel without thinking of the multiple submitted readers questions from previous issues asking about characters feet
Yay! I was right about the cult thing! (Also that sheep lady is quite pretty)
And here's an article on Sega Channel! Think is actually the first I've actually heard about this specific service, I typically think of the website when I think of the name Sega Channel
Another solo Tails story.
A clever detail about this is that in previous panel's you can see the bear scientist's hands were green- not matching the head at all
Ignoring the apparent sex-appeal of these ugly-ass sneakers, that fella in the middle is wearing a crucifix pendant. That has many implications for the lore of this world that will give me a headache if I think about it for too long.
Thinking about it, StC's concept of Zones really does give the writers freedom with settings in a similar way to the islands in One Piece. From jungles to bustling metropolises, the story can be placed wherever the fuck the writer feels like
Forced makeovers via kidnapping. Probably not legal, but then again it's not really like this world has a super concrete justise system
This is something I actually learned myself the other week. Apparently in the 80s and 90s it was a Thing in Britain to call people who were giant nerd Anoraks, because people who had hobbies like train spotting or bird watching will often wear practical, but unfashionable clothing such as waterproof jackets. Thinking about it, it's a slightly roundabout way to insult autistic people.
Imagine the keystone of your evil plan relying on being able to tie a decent knot and you cant even fucking do that correctly.

i’d like to be controversial for a second.
i hate—genuinely hate—the general attitude towards baking.
remember at the beginning of the 2010s, when the great british baking show came about and spread an interest to baking to the general public? i caught a newer episode of their celebrity edition and i think all of two people on the last three or four seasons took it seriously. everyone else thought it was just a joke. and it’s not just with cooking shows, either. i see it everywhere, on tumblr, on facebook, on instagram…
“I have a recipe here but i’m going to read between the lines and add more shit to it. oh, no, why does it look like that? oh, no, why is it burning? oh, no, why is it raw?”
i’ll never forget seeing someone on here post about making chocolate chip cookies and they added a bunch of shit to their mix and just about set a fire in their oven. i still wonder if op even had a recipe on hand or if they were just trying to see if they can get away with it by guessing. they’re like the easiest cookie in the world to make, how do you fuck that up?
yesterday, i saw a post saying “bake 10-12 minutes is obviously code for bake 11 minutes” and i couldn’t reblog it because op turned off reblogs for some reason. it’s that way when you’re cooking: a recipe card from hellofresh will tell me to cook an onion for 4-6 minutes until it’s soft and browned, it’ll take 5 minutes to do that just from how the stove works when i turn it up to medium heat and i just let it cook. baking is a whole other animal: if it says to bake for 10-12 minutes, bake for 10 minutes first and then check it, and if it’s not done, give it another 2 minutes or until it is.
my mom tells me i’m a patient cook and… i am. just let the ingredients do what they do at medium heat and watch over it. trust the recipe. put your fucking phone away. and you don’t need to cook something in a skillet at high heat because it’ll burn on the outside and be underdone inside.
bread is a living creature, especially sourdough.
i guess it’s just the nerd in me, but i find it all incredibly insulting. it’s insulting to the person who penned the recipe, to the chef who tried it out and mastered it, to the wheat used to make the flour, the sugar cane used to make the sugar, the bird that gave us its eggs, the cow that gave us its milk so we could have butter or cream, the cocoa beans used for chocolate, the vanilla beans used to make extract, the vegetables used to make veggie oil or olive oil… and it’s insulting to us, the viewers, the followers, the readers, the people on the other side watching this shit happen and feeling helpless to stop it. the culinary world has been humbling for me, the same way chemistry and biology labs, ceramics lab, all my machine shops, and welding class have been humbling; the difference is cooking and baking get personal really quick. you put your heart into the dish or the cake, all while following a recipe. it’s a meeting of mind and heart (if you’re making bread, it’s mind, heart, and body).
a recipe is nearly identical to a science experiment, like it’s an experiment that had been tried out and written down for us to try out ourselves. just like how in laboratories and the machine shop, you have things in the kitchen that don’t care if you have hair, or jewelry, or appendages. things that can cut and burn you. things that can burn your nose with the smell, like vinegar poured into a hot skillet. things that don’t seem hot but don’t assume anything (never forget the time in high school chemistry class where my first lab partner picked up an erlenmeyer flask and didn’t listen to me when i told him i just had it over the bunsen burner; i worked solo after that).
i think that’s why i have such a hard time agreeing with this general consensus that baking is a feminine or girly endeavor when it’s not, it’s very cerebral and often technical (and women in baking is actually a relatively recent trend, too, it was only a couple hundred years ago when women started undertaking it themselves). it’s an art as well as a science. if anything, cooking is more of the art here, because even though you’re following a recipe, there’s a great deal of craft involved.
i also think of the general attitude towards science now that i write this out. the number of people who think covid is fake. the number of people who think the moon landing was fake. the number of people who think skinwalker ranch is fake. the number of flat-earthers still running around. i’m actually not at all surprised that people think baking is this girly thing that’s also a joke now that i think about it.
and all you people who are like “i couldn’t even make a sandwich let alone make dinner”, just follow the recipe and turn on your burner to medium heat at the most—you never turn a burner on high unless you’re boiling water. it’s literally not hard.

Genesis: What up nerds *flexes by singing with an angelic voice and wows everyone with his amazing vocals*
I feel like he'd always flex in the most unconventional ways possible
Angeal: "Same to you, loser."
*Plays entire Free Bird solo and casually walks away*
...And Sephiroth just flexes by being Sephiroth

next show:
Marnie Stern: probably one of my favorite “solo acts” of math rock time, who also made one of my most listened to albums ever (effortfully titled This Is It And I Am It And You Are It And So Is That And He Is It And She Is It And It Is It And That Is That). so excited for her, especially after her recent album (comparatively effortlessly titled The Comeback Kid).
Quasi: also amazing. Featuring “Birds��� is still one of my favorite indie pop / indie rock albums ever, with vulnerable lyricism and earworm melodies all over it. they’re touring for the anniversary of this album, but i would love to see a song from their most recent (titled Breaking the Balls of History).
nerd out over, i feel like they’re about to come on soon
#music recs#quasi#marnie stern#indie pop#indie rock#noise pop#slacker rock#power pop#math rock#garage rock#math pop#concert#so excited#i love my indie rock

31 days of Harringrove
Prompt: The Christmas Song
Once Billy got full custody of Max, he thought it was best to move to a new town for a new start. Max was surprisingly on board. The battle was hard for her wanting to be with her mother but knowing she chose his father over Max. So they moved to a town called Hawkins in Indiana. Small town with not much going on. It was honestly the best place to start a new life.
They had been there since October and Max was able to make friends right away. They were a bunch of nerds but they were nice to her that’s all the matter. Thanksgiving was simple and nice. Just them eating some store bought food dinner and watching tv. Now it was Christmas. Well it was almost Christmas and the tree was filled with presents under the tree. Billy figured he’d try to distract her from this being her first Christmas without her mother.
One thing he was surprised by was Max joining chorus at school. He thought she was joking at first but sure enough here he was at her Christmas performance for school. Apparently she was good at it because she had a solo. He helped her pick out an emerald green tux and put a rose in the jacket pocket. He could give two shits what this town thought he wasn’t going to force Max to wear something she didn’t want to.
“Billy seriously stop! You’re embarrassing me you jerk!” Max snapped at him. Billy was laughing as he took more picture of his sister. What could he say. He was proud of her. “Alright shit bird I’m done.” Before she could get away from him, he pulled her into a hug. “I’m proud of you kid. Now go rock that fucking solo.” Max smiled at him and muttered a soft shut up before leaving him.
Billy went and found a sit as close to the front as he could. He managed to get a sit in the second row right in from of the stage. He read the program pan flit while he wanted for it to start. He was surprised to see that the chorus teacher was a man. ‘Maybe this town is more progress than I thought’ He smiled seeing Max’a name under the solo list. They music started and Billy put the pan flit in his packet. “Alright ‘Steve Harrington’ let’s see what you got.
The performance was going well. Billy could tell a few kids didn’t know all the words but the way this Steve Harrington was smiling at them the kids seemed to not care. It was hard to keep his eyes on Max because this teacher was… attractive is the most PG way to put it. But then Max stepped forward towards one of the mics and smiled at her teacher. She started singing “The Christmas Song” by Nate King Coke. She sang beautifully and all he could do was smile. She hand a soft voice which was surprising because he had a hard time making her use her ‘inside voice’
After Max’s solo the choir sang one more song. Everyone started clapping and ‘Mr. Harrington’ turned around and smiled. Billy’s eyes widened. This guy had it all! The looks, the smile, hell the ass too. He watched as the teacher turned and clapped for his students and then everyone made there way out into the hall. Billy found Max fairly fast. She was talking to her teacher. She looked so happy talking to him she even gave him a hug. “Well done Max. Never told me you had a voice like that.” They both turned to see Billy smiling at them.
Max sighed. “Mr. Harrington this is my annoying brother Billy. Billy this is-“ “Steve Harrington. Yea saw in the program. Now Max why didn’t you tell me your chorus teacher was this hot.” Billy winked at Steve who proceeded to blush. “Ew Billy! Ugh can’t you keep it in your pants for once god.” She walked away joining her friends. He turned his attention back to Steve. “You sure live up to the name Mr. Hargrove.” He laughed. “Please never call me that again. Billy is fine now what should I call you. Pretty boy.” He grins as Steve puts his hands on his hip.
“Real funny Billy. This might work for other people but it’s not going to on me.” Billy smiled. He was going to keep trying because this guy has a fire in him that Billy wanted to see more. “Alright Harrington how’s about I take you on a date on new years. What do ya say pretty boy.” He puffed his chest out while Steve looked him up and down. Praying that this guy would give him a chance.
Steve sighed and laughed. “Alright fine. Just because you’re to interesting to say no.”
