Scoops Ahoy break time ❤️🤍💙

this is the other love of my life if y’all weren’t aware

[pollenallergie]

You and Eddie get high and have serious, deep conversations about life while hanging upside down on that geometric dome climber near the front of the trailer park. Wayne gets home from work and finds you two still out there talking each other’s ears off. So, he sneaks over to see what you and his nephew are talking about, assuming that it’s serious, given your pensive expressions. However, by then, your conversations have evolved into utter nonsense. Granted, you still find the current, nonsensical topics to be of the utmost importance due to your current highs and, thus, treat them with the same care as your earlier discussion topics. So, when Wayne finally gets close enough to hear what you’re talking about, he discovers that you and Eddie are having an in-depth discussion about whether or not there’s sexual tension between Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd.

When the interviewer asked when we should expect s5 to be coming out, that’s when Shawn mentioned that a little bit of an answer to that might be out there soon.

He actually mentions that this answer could be out by the time the video for this interview comes out, and since this interview was filmed mid-May and it’s now mid-June, I’m assuming we could be getting something soon or within the next couple months, potentially about a release date aka possibly a small teaser with 2025 stamped at the end…

"i love you" is less powerful than:

"it was a seven"

"crazy together"

"it was the best thing i've ever done"

"not possible"

"it's not the same without you"

but all of these are less powerful than:

"you can't leave, it's raining"

Does anyone wanna talk about oc’s? Specifically stranger things oc’s :( I have a couple characters I wanna talk about but idk who to talk about it with.

[aboutzatanna]

can we get a summary of Zatanna’s interactions with Swamp Thing? And/or Madame Xanadu?

(Sorry it took a while to answer to this. Not being able to answer this has been bugging me for a while)

Outside of JLD, the most notable interactions I can think are:

-For Swamp Thing:

Although her Dad died as a guest star in a Swamp Thing, Zatanna and Swamp Thing never really interacted in that specific arc.

There was a Swamp Thing mini series in 2011 by Len Wein (Swamp Thing's other Dad) and artist Kelly Jones (perfect fit for the title) which revolved around Swamp Thing/Alec Holland looking for a cure for his condition with his friend, Matt Cable which leads the two of them to Zatanna's place.

Continuity wise, it a bit of a mess. What with Matthew Cable being...well....alive...human and...not one one of Morpheus's crows. Plus references to Alan Moore's Swamp Thing run but ST is a human turned to swamp creature instead of a swamp creature who thought it was human. That said, Alec Holland was brought back to life thanks to the events of Brightest Day so that's not as egregious as Matthew Cable.

Zatanna is the magician who gets the biggest focus. Her characterization is the same as her preNu52, same goes for Phantom Stranger and Etrigan. But this mini fits neither the Pre Nu52 continuity nor the Post Nu52 continuity. I think it can be enjoyed and read on it's own. It's just stuck in a weird middle ground continuity wise because it was published in a time when nobody at DC was sure if the Nu52 was a full, clean slate reboot or partial reboot and no one could decided what should remain in continuity and what shouldn't.

-For Madame Xanadu:

The first major story to have Zatanna and Xanadu interact with each other was Spectre Vol 2 #7-8 titled 'Pieces of Zatanna'. It's a rare body horror story involving Zatanna where she finds her limbs and other parts of her body disappearing and returning but she knows they are not her original limbs.

So Zatanna quickly runs to Madame Xanadu for help. Although this is the first time readers see Zatanna and Xanadu interact, the two are already aware of each other.

The story is meant to resolve loose ends from Zatanna's final appearance in Justice League of America Vol 1 #257 as well as give Zatanna some closure for her fathers death in Swamp Thing #50.

Zatanna later appeared in Spectre Vol 2 #11, this time, of all things, the limo driver who chaueffer's Xanadu, Bronze Tiger and June Moon to a meeting arranged by the Spectre involving all the magical beings so they can discuss their roles in the human world. Not sure why Zee couldn't have just teleported them there, but then again, maybe they just wanted to enjoy a nice drive and limo is implied to be Zatanna's.

Years later, in Madame Xanadu's own series Madame Xanadu #9 we learn that Xanadu and John Zatara had dated in the past which goes a long way towards explaining how Zatanna knows her.

In Spectre Vol 3, around #16, there was a story arc where an Eclipso possessed Spectre went on a rampage. Zatanna appeared in the story arc but didn't get to interact with Xanadu as she was recruited to by Phantom Stranger to be on his team alongside Etrigan and the Inza Nelson Doctor Fate. Xanadu made her own team with Father Creamer and Ramban. Notably it's Xanadu's team that ends up succeeding at stopping the Spectre's rampage but cutting to the heart of the issue and confronting Corrigan's spiritual crisis directly.

Aside from that, Xanadu and Zatanna often appear together in ensembles during events like Obsidian Age and Day of Vengeance but they are not always notable.

I always thought that Xanadu could be a cool step mom figure for Zee since the latter operates in a male dominated world.

I haven't read Bendis Justice League in full yet but around the time the JLD back up feature was getting cancelled we did get to see Zatanna and Xanadu team up to fight a possessed Black Adam in Justice League Vol 4 #73:

not my usual stuff but I have a hc for Stranger Things. The reason why Erica is so confident, and so proud of who she is is bc of Lucas. When Erica was was like 6-7 she was getting bullied and Lucas told her there can’t be America without Erica, he went on a whole rant on how cool she is. He was hoping that it’d make her feel better, it worked. No, I’m not saying that every single ounce of confidence came from Lucas(or that confidence in general come from other people!!) I’m just saying that Lucas helped push that confidence to the surface!

Byler Week 2023 - Day 6: Pre-Volume 2

“Can’t sleep?” Will jolts up and the pen slips from his hands, and with a soft thud it lands next to him. Mike is sitting up on the bed and Will wonders how long he’s been sitting there because it looks like he’s been staring. “No,” Will simply replies and turns to find his pen again. “And you?” “Nope.” or When the Cali gang stops at a motel for the night, Will and Mike end up sharing more than just a bed.

i need more pervy best friend!Eddie in my life…

18+ only!! | minors do not read this!! | mdni

maybe you have a habit of wearing the shortest shorts imaginable around your trailer, and Eddie subtly encourages you to start doing the same at his place (but only when Wayne’s not home), telling you to ‘get comfy,’ to ‘make yourself at home.’

maybe Eddie has a bad habit of stealing a pair of your recently worn underwear from your laundry hamper whenever he spends the night at your place.

maybe Eddie spies on you through your bedroom window because you have a bad habit of leaving the blinds open, partially due to the fact that your bedroom windows face the woods. maybe Eddie watches you change clothes, watches and listens to you masturbate when you’re home alone, watches you dance to your favorite songs in those sinful little dolphin shorts, etc.

maybe Eddie has even drawn you naked from memory. maybe he keeps the sketch of your naked body locked away in the memento box under his bed.

maybe Eddie has quietly jerked off while you were sleeping next to him in your bed.

but maybe you’re a bit of a perv too…

maybe you’ve touched yourself while he was sleeping next to you in your bed.

maybe you’ve taken pictures of him changing through his bedroom window (never content to just watch like he is).

maybe you touch yourself later while looking at those pictures.

maybe one day, you come over and, upon walking past his window towards the front steps, you hear him moaning through the small crack left open in the window. maybe you can’t help but look to see what he’s doing, already having a pretty good suspicion. maybe, when you spot him stroking his hard, leaking cock, you can’t help but stay to watch him finish. maybe you touch yourself while you watch. maybe you cum at the same time as him, muffling your moans with the palm of your hand.

maybe you’ve “borrowed” his rings so that you could wear them while you touched yourself, imagining that it was his fingers rubbing your clit.

They learn quickly that the monsters are sensitive to sound.

He gets used to talking quietly. To always watch his step and always be aware of his surroundings. Someone had the idea to raid the schools and communicate exclusively using blackboard and chalk. Hawkins has never been so silent, but that doesn't bother him too much. He grew up in the silence, after all.

What bothers him is that his hands won't stop trembling. He never had the prettiest handwriting, but the chicken scratch he produces now is barely readable. Worse, he needs for-fucking-ever to write even a single word, only for it to not even look like english half the time.

He and Robin can communicate without words - he is truly convinced that they are living proof that soulmates are a thing - but with everyone else he has to struggle with the chalk, until he just gives up and starts talking less and less. If he died because he took too long writing smalltalk or pleasantries on the blackboard he would never live it down. He tries to convince himself that the grizzled-cool-silent-type suits him. With moderate success.

Although the whole town was literally transported into a different dimension, all adults seem to maintain a silent agreement to continue on as if nothing is wrong. They still go to work and they still need to pay for groceries and the holes and cracks in the streets are nothing more than inconveniences. He even overhears someone complaining about those, once. As if everything would be fine if the holes were only filled with cement. (oh gee, he wonders - silently as always, why did we never try that genius idea the last three times the upside down made an unwelcome visit). The only shop that has escaped the clutches of capitalism is the weapons shop.

He can somewhat understand it, the need to pretend that everything is fine. That it was all some collective nightmare that will fade with the dullness of day-to-day life. Doesn't mean he can't hate it. Though he doesn't take it as hard as the rest of the party.

It makes sense if you think about it. Robin, Nancy, the shitheads - they are smart, they could all actually go somewhere, do something with their lives. But him? Steve Harrington never had much of a future anyway, and his chances of making it out of this godforsaken town were always miniscule. No. What honestly bothers him more are his hands that won't stop shaking. You can't use a gun if you are unable to hold still and aim. You have a harder time being fast and quiet when everything takes twice as long if you don't want to drop anything. Even his beloved bat becomes less reliable, the swings weaker and his actual target always a few centimeters off. So yeah, his trembling hands are fucking inconvenient.

Gas and Water and Electricity stopped working. The first few months all of Hawkins stinks of rotting food until some teacher has the grandiose idea of distributing history books. This has the added bonus of giving everyone something to do that isn't "pretending not to be under constant panic". Water filters get classified under "weaponry" so that everyone has access without the mayor having to change the law again.

Once more, he doesn't mind too much. The only reason he used to turn on the TV was to feel less alone, and now the rest of the party basically lives in his house. He doesn't even mind having to walk the entire way to and from the lake while carrying buckets full of water: he will always be a jock at heart, and it is a great way to work out and be useful at the same time. His biggest complaint is once again his fucking hands. Water is precious, but his stupid arm won't stay still and it keeps spilling out of the bucket. Every lost drip feels like a stab in his heart, and the only reason he doesn't cry is because that would be an even bigger waste of water.

But the most stupid and embarrassing part is that this isn't even his first rodeo. He has been here before, he knows what it is like. Everyone else is living the same situations that he is. And still, his hands are the only ones that won't fucking stop trembling.

mike and max between season 3 and 4 really said, "well, let's go from passive aggression to depression."
