#someone named terry

[macksartblock]

no collective thoughts just drawings before i DM tonight

[wrdn-tabris]

thinking about terry and matt, how matt is just so so important to him. hes a headache and a brat but most importantly terrys little brother, and hes always gonna be his little brother, one of the most important people to him. and terrys his hero, both as just himself and as batman.

i bet matt imagined himself as robin. would daydream of fighting right beside batman without even knowing its terry. and what a terrifying thought it is for terry. his baby brother out there? doing what he does. (not that terrys thinking hes still a kid too)

does terry look at the suits of all the past robins and see matt in one too? theyre heroes, and matt wants ti be a hero, but terry, looking at all these kids in the past, who died or worse? theyre not heroes, just a cautionary tale.

Bruised Apologies

A Glark Fic for and based loosely on @justablah56 and it’s post!! Is it my best work? idk! Warning for violence? (someone getting punched and mentions of past violence just in case!)

[Aether Hihi I hope you enjoy this! Again, I’ve never written these guys and also idk how to portray characters that well in fanfic so uhhh fuck it we ball. This is a bit short and idk if it follows your Tumblr post well]

(She/They Terry and She/Her Sparrow btw! To avoid confusion and this is set when these guys are late teens/early twenties :])

Lark spat blood out on the floor, catching himself before he fell. The crack that had rung out when Grant had punched his face still hung in the air. The hand holding the railing and stopping him from falling was already splattered with blood, none of it his. He could hear Grant running up to meet him and by the time Lark got his balance, Grant was shaking his shoulders.

“Lark, buddy,” Lark could hear the fear in Grant’s voice and when he met his eyes, it was even clearer. The boy’s jacket was covered in dirt from when he had fallen, and Lark couldn’t help but smile a little when he saw his blood on Grant’s hand.

“I didn’t mean- it was the adrenaline I think-I’m sorry,”

“Don’t apologize.” Lark’s voice was ragged from yelling earlier. 

“I asked you to hit me.”

“Yes but not that hard!” While Grant was stuttering out another apology, Lark noticed that Grant’s nose was bleeding. Around them, the empty parking lot was lit dimly with streetlights and the building Lark was leaning up against had a sign reading D.A.D.D.I.E.S in a business font. Coughing, he stood up, Grant hurriedly copying him. Lark held a hand to his cheek, trying to feel how much damage there was.

“How bad does it look?” Grant paused.

“Not that bad but that doesn’t mean its ok, I think it could bruise so- “Lark covered Grant’s mouth with his hand.

“Thanks, you don’t need to apologise again,’ He removed his hand and Grant went to speak but seemed to think better for it since he stayed quiet. Lark wiped the blood from Grant’s face, not doing a good job since he himself had blood on his hand. In the end he ended up putting more blood than removing it from Grant’s face. Grant laughed awkwardly and took a piece of cloth from his pocket.

“It’s one of Terry’s cloths for her glasses since they forget them, I think it could work,” Lark took it and cleaned his hands and Grant’s face in silence.

“Lark,”

“Hm?” Grant’s hands met his and Lark looked up to see him looking at him.

“What?” Lark put the cloth back in Grant’s hands and stood back, the silence now weighing on him.

“For fuck’s sake spit it out!” This was the loudest Lark had raised his voice that night besides when he had yelled, and he could feel his throat ache.

“Sorry.” Grant’s voice was cautious and when Lark didn’t say anything he continued.

“I know you said to hit you, so we’d be even, but I don’t want to hurt you again.” Grant’s hands were warm. Lark couldn’t help but remember when he’d talked to Sparrow about  kissing Grant. She’d said go for it, but he didn’t think this is what she’d deem as the right time.

“I don’t want us fighting to become a thing we do ok?” Lark wasn’t paying attention. Grant’s eyes were shiny, from pain or tears Lark didn’t know, and he was waiting for a response.

“Lark please- “Lark leant forward, grabbing Grant’s jacket. Sparrow’s voice in his head yelled something about him being stupid but he waved her away as he pressed his lips to Grant’s. Grant mumbled something in surprise, but it was caught up in their kiss. Grant’s hands cupped Lark’s face and the kiss turned into what Lark could describe as hunger and relief. Grant’s lips were broken and chapped from when he worried, they were dry, but Lark didn’t complain. His weren’t any better. Lark’s hands found their way under Grant’s jacket and held his waist.

“LARK OAK GARCIA.” The two of them pulled away quickly, Lark looking around and saw that they’d been kissing right in front of D.A.D.D.I.E.S main entrance and Nicky Freeman stood there, huffing as if he’d had to run there. He was joined by Terry being dragged by Sparrow, the two of them sprinting as if their life depending on it. The scene was frozen with Lark still holding Grant’s waist, Grant blushing with his head in his hands, Terry and Sparrow shocked and Nicky smiling like he’d won the lottery.

“Right Sparrow you owe me,” He held his hand out and Sparrow slapped it away, nodding.

“You guys kissed right in front of the security cameras,” Terry said, still struggling to catch her breath. Sparrow walked over and shook Lark by the shoulders.

“You’re lucky it was just us actually, Mr Wilson had just left, and I think you could have given him a heart attack if he’d seen,” she said this jokingly, but he knew he’d be getting a talk either from Sparrow or his mum. They all started walking in, and Grant ran up to Lark from where he’d been giving Terry their blood-stained glasses cloth and caught him by the arm.

“Uh-was that a yes to my question?” Lark laughed and nodded. 

“Yeah it is.” Grant smiled and walked alongside him into the warmth of the HQ and by the time they got in the elevator, his hand was looped in Lark’s.

relistening to the first few episodes of s1 and the way that terry jr literally attempts to abandon ron at the house, and then later tells him to go die, in the span of one episode,

yet somehow...the two of them end up with practically the healthiest relationship out of any of the father-child dynamics in the series-

kinda cool how in season one eleven escapes the lab thinking she's the monster & in season four eleven escapes the lab again knowing she never was and that none of what happened was ever her fault.

and how in season two she goes on a journey to figure out part of her past and is told by another of the lab's victims that she needs to find strength in pain and anger & in season four we saw that it was her mother calling her by her real, human name and telling her that she loved her that gave her enough strength to overpower evil and banish it from their dimension, not the hurt and rage she felt at her being taken away. and that again, she was able to perform a miracle and bring her friend back to life by thinking of the love she showed her and the way she had always treated her like she was a human being.

she and her story are just really cool, methinks.

TW:INJURY OF MISSING ARM NOTHING GRAPHIC, IN HOSPITAL ROOM

Anyways the Start of the nameless Terrickow au lol none of this is edited ,this is a drabble + art lol

Taglist: @justablah56

As much as Nick's head pounded he had to let everyone know that he wouldnt be at game night. So course he got Jodie to take the picture, he sent it.

What he wasnt expecting his exes/friends Terry & Sparrow to show such sudden concern. It was bitter sweet feeling that whelmed in his aching chest. Thinking back to the days where the two fussed over injuries or when his horns were first growing in.

Shaking his head, hoping Grant & Lark show up as well, Nick was just barely getting used to the change of not being as close to Terry or Sparrow in years.

He wouldnt know what to do if they showed now without Grant or Lark.

"Get ahold of yourself Nicky.." Nick murmured to himself laying hus back into the pillows, closing his eyes.

Nick could worry when they all get here.

[remholder]

yes this is based off that one promo pic that, even though i know better, i always see it as it being Terry's hand on Jeri's waist

infects you with computer worm!!! infects you with computer worm!!!!

Oh yeah speaking of dutch gamedevs i forgot abt the tiny terrys turbo trip devs, which does not seem to be a game im interested in but i do respect the devs for filling the game with borderline nonsense dutch thats mildly funny and nonsensical to any non-dutch person but hilariously silly to dutch people

Now that the final headcount post has gone live

If anyone wants to ask us anything or get to know us better, go ahead! - Terry

my copy of "making money" is missing a page

i uh. got it two days ago. and im reading rn and discovered one of the pages is blank (contextually it shouldn't be, the next page starts in the middle of a sentence)

im reading a translation so the page number would be useless, but its in chapter 7, right when (spoiler) the ghost of the wizard shows up. the last paragraph on the page before is the physical description of him, the first paragraph on the next page is the ghost wizard saying something like "what's a beautiful woman like you doing here, hmm?"

its not like the rest of the book is unintelligible without it but i would really appreciate it if someone could maybe just send me a picture of the page lmao😭

I think one of the best story elements ever is when there is a bunch of little creatures scavenging human stuff. And they name themselves after the stuff they found.

Authors Convinced Fanfic is Illegal/Requires Permission

Terry Goodkind: “Copyright law dictates that in order for me to protect my copyright, when I find such things, I must go out and hire lawyers to threaten these people to make them stop, and to sue them if they don’t.”

John Scalzi: “Let's remember one fundamental thing about fanfic: Almost all of it is entirely illegal to begin with. It's the wild and wanton misappropriation of copyrighted material”

Diana Gabaldon: “OK, my position on fan-fic is pretty clear: I think it’s immoral, I know it’s illegal, and it makes me want to barf whenever I’ve inadvertently encountered some of it involving my characters.”

Robin Hobb: “Fan fiction is like any other form of identity theft. It injures the name of the party whose identity is stolen.”

Anne Rice: “I do not allow fan fiction. The characters are copyrighted. It upsets me terribly to even think about fan fiction with my characters. I advise my readers to write your own original stories with your own characters. It is absolutely essential that you respect my wishes.”

Anne McCaffrey: “there can be no adventure/stories set on Pern at all!!!!! That's infringing on my copyright and can bear heavy penalties…indiscriminate usage of our characters, worlds, and concepts on a 'public' media like electronic mail constitute copyright infringement AND, which many fans disregard, is ACTIONABLE!”

Chelsea Quinn Yarbro: “No. Absolutely not. It is also against federal law.”

Lynn Flewelling: “Whether you are writing about Seregil or Fox Mulder or Sherlock Holmes, if you do not have legal permission from the author, their estate, or publisher, then you are violating US copyright law. It is creative piracy. Doesn't matter how many disclaimers you put on, or if you're being paid. It. Is. Illegal.”
