If I make a humanformers au I will go all out on the worldbuilding.

What would make it distinct at all from base transformers would really just be the framing of it and an excuse to draw transformers gijinka I think.

The T-cogs give the humanformers equippable magic mech suit armor and also make them bigger as in fully grow up cause the T cogs are partially a metaphor for puberty in TF:One you cannot change my mind. Plus like the removal of the T cogs being like permanent infantilization? Like never being allowed to grow, change, or reach your full potential.

Getting the t cogs would be Mario getting the red mushroom and fire flower all in one, but the fire ability the flower grants is an iron man suit or Samus Aran suit that can be equipped and de-quipped via magical girl transformation.

The alt, or vehicle modes usually give the transformers a speed or maneuverability advantage and that’d be what the suit does, besides also giving them ability to access/summon to their various tools and/or weaponry they’d have in canon. I think the transformers who are also vehicles that can transport other transformers would be like, same size as the other transformers when I transformed but when they are in their vehicle modes, there’s like a chamber within the possible transform-able ship, or train, or something, that houses their true body like a giant spark chamber but it’s a pod or something. I like the drama where it’s like eh it’s just a giant vehicle oh wait the giant vehicle is alive and a person?! Or made from a person. Any Star Wars fans ever read the fics where the Jedi are the ancient giant space ships and the clones were made to pilot them? Yeah.

Effectively the no-cogs would be smaller, weaker, unarmed, more vulnerable without armor to protect their squishy selves in comparison to those with T cogs. Those with T cogs would appear as if demigods in comparison.

Also I think it’d just look cool if they transformed to have guns, canons, or other stuff while without the armor cause then it’d be like Parasyte, Akira but more sleek scifi lookin, or the Plants in Trigun, some sort of flesh/machine seamless amalgamation.

If I were to draw it out I’d probably make the cogged humanformers have metal plating or technical components on them that seamlessly meshes with the “flesh” parts of them when they’re not transformed, and they’d tower over the un-cogged as they do in TF:One.

The un-cogged humanformers would be like normal humans but there’s a scar on their torsos from where the T cogs were surgically removed at birth.

Also I think it’d be cool should this conception of humanformers ever went to Earth cause the whole robots in disguise part would still work, but there’d still be the whole size difference/world made of cardboard thing. Idk just imagine these futuristic cyborg lookin guys twice the size of average human beings walking around and humans being like yooo sick cosplay or something idk

bbybluemochi's F.A.Q. ✧･ﾟ

Hi! Arun here! I thought that instead of answering your submissions one by one I’d gather all the frequently asked questions and answer them in a single post (this is a mix of art/OC/commissions related q's)!

Please note that I do read all your messages and I’m so grateful for every one of them!!!! I keep all your words really close to my heart, thank you for liking my art and loving my Ocs as much as I do, it means the world to me <3

What’s the name of your OCs?

They’re called Cotton (the blonde one) and Puppy (the dark haired one). The original idea for them was to make some silly wolf/bunny OCs (that’s why Cotton is called like that, it was supposed to be a joke about her tail…) but somewhere along the way they took over and became something completely different!

Is there a webcomic for your OCs?

Not currently! I don’t have the time or the skills (for now) but I’d love to give it a try in the future!

I was wondering if you mind people using your OC art as character art/inspiration for DnD?Just games with friends that are for fun, nothing for commercial.

Go ahead! I find that really flattering.

Just out of curiosity, are any of your OCs bisexual?

Both Cotton and Puppy are lesbians. That’s what I feel comfortable drawing since I’m a lesbian myself. If I ever do draw a bisexual OC I’ll make sure to mention it! <3

I think you said Cotton was a dominatrix in a previous ask, but is Puppy on the opposite side of the spectrum or is she just glad to be there whichever way?

Puppy is very much a sub. They both switch (Puppy as a service top and bottom and Cotton as a top and power bottom), but the dom/sub dynamic never changes. Also I wanted to mention that these dynamics do not transcend outside of the bedroom that much, there’s more to them than their kinks but I do love to draw them deep in their submissive/dominant headspaces.

Are one of the lesbian fairytale characters trans?

I didn’t design either of them with that in mind, but I’m super OK with people headcanoning them as trans!

May I use your art as a header/icon?

Of course! Remember to credit me tho~

Do you allow people to use your art freely?

I don’t allow reposts of my work (not that it matters that much, since almost all my art has been already reposted a million times ))): but I’d really appreciate it if you just shared my posts instead of reposting my art). As for phone backgrounds/wallpapers or stuff like that, yeah!

Do you have an instagram account or other social media, I would love to follow you there.

My main platform is twitter (same @), I post all my drawings there and I’m usually more active over there. Tumblr is kind of like an archive. I really like the community here but I find it easier to reply/interact with people on twitter! As for instagram, I do have an old art account (same @, again) but I haven’t posted in so long. I may start posting there soon if a certain rich guy decides to keep destroying the bird app tho.

I’ve always thought about this… how do you think it’d look if the aesthetics/styles [of your OCs] were reversed?

I’ll have to explore that in a future drawing, I haven’t thought much about it!

Do you write fics for your characters or has anyone else written fics about them?

Not yet! A couple of my friends have offered, tho! I usually like to stick to drawing because that’s what I do best, I don’t wanna subject anyone to my writing (it’s not very good,,,,). When I share some of my Ocs stories, I think it will be in comic format.

What's the story behind your OCs?

There are several, actually!! I like to put my OCs in different universes. As for now, there’s the Fairytale AU, the modern setting AU (this is the original one), and now the Werewolf/Vampire AU. I also did a drawing of them as spiderwoman and black cat but I don’t think that AU is gonna make a comeback for a while. I’m also planning a scifi AU but I’m not sure I’d be able to pull off that aesthetic with my current art style so I’m still working on it.

The Fairytale AU is the one I’m working on most of the time. I wanna release a small artbook with their story + illustrations. That was my main goal for 2023 but life got in the way, so maybe,,, 2024??? *crosses fingers*

Is your shop down? It’s saying that it’s not available.

I open my shop for 1-2 weeks every now and then, that’s why it’s closed most of the time! My plan is to open the store again in september, if i manage to finish all the merch in time! I’ll announce it on my twitter and tumblr account when I do.

Would you ever share a tutorial on how you make your art?

Yes, of course! I’m not very good at explaining my drawing process but If it helps anyone I’d love to! Just let me know what part of the drawing process you’d like me to focus on, because If i try to make a full illustration tutorial it’s gonna be too long/difficult to follow.

May I ask what brush do you use for your lineart?

I use a different brush almost every time I start an illustration, I’m not very consistent when it comes to that (I think it’s mainly because I haven’t found the perfect brush yet!). But let me know what illustration you’re curious about and I’ll try to remember which one I used!

Do you come up with poses off the top of your head or do you use some type of reference? I always struggle with them.

It depends on what I’m drawing! Some of my drawings are reinterpretations of paintings (I’m obsessed with pre-raphaelite painters and arthurian legend paintings in general), so in those cases I try to adapt the poses to my art style. Even If I’m trying to recreate an already existing painting I end up changing the poses/proportions a lot along the way to fit my personal taste/art style.

Other times, I just sketch from imagination (this is more entertaining, I think, since looking at references can make the drawing process a bit tedious). If I find it hard to draw a certain pose/part of the body I will look up references on printerest, no shame in using pictures! If I still can’t find the pose I need I’ll just take a picture of myself (this is like, a last resort for me. I’m too lazy for this).

My personal advice would be to use references for the pose and then tweaking the pose and trying to make it more personal

I love the way the armor was designed and rendered! Can you share some tips on designing armor?

Drawing armor is something I still struggle with most of the time. I think I’ve learned a lot in the past year (please don’t look at my armor drawings from 2022,,,,, sigh) but I still struggle to draw certain poses/angles. My advice is: don’t hesitate to draw non-functional armor!!! There’s always gonna be someone like “actually, that armour makes no sense :)” well !!!! it looks cool as hell so who caresssss !!!!!

I think it’s more important for you to get comfortable drawing armor before you start beating yourself up for not drawing accurate ones. It takes a lot of practice (I’m still learning!!!), especially if you’re trying to draw historically accurate ones, so start by having fun, and then work your way up from there.

Most of the tips I can think about are really hard to explain without a visual example, so let me know if that’d be a tutorial you would be interested in and I’ll try to make one (I’m cringing a little just saying this bc I swear, my armor skills are so bad compared to some amazing artists out there………..).

Do you allow cosplays your OCs?

YES…. YES PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IM BEGGING YOUUU ILL LOVE YOU FOREVER !!!!!! *rattles my cage*

Do you allow fanart of your OCs?

Again,,, PLEASEEEEEEEEE !!! Just tag me so I don’t miss it and remember to give me credits if you do !!!!!!!!!!! :D

I was wondering if you use procreate , clip studio, or similar apps?

A mix of both. I used to draw on procreate only until I got a tablet and now I’m a clip studio user (csp sponsor me please), and now that’s all I use. I’m so used to drawing on PC now that I don’t think I’d be able to go back to procreate, but I still like that app a lot! All my drawings (even the ones I do on csp) always get retouched on procreate because I like some of the effects (*dreamy sigh* chromatic aberration filter,,, love u).

I wanted to know if the marks Cotton has on her waist are tattoos or like a scar?

Those are tats! Puppy is a tattoo artist ~~~ (I’m actually not sure if i’ll keep the waist tats on Cotton or if I’ll end up redesigning them,,,)

I was wondering if you take commissions?

Not right now. I also don’t have any plans of opening commissions any time soon! When I do, I’ll post a google forms on twitter and here on tumblr with the prices and type of comms I do. But there’s nothing scheduled.

Even tho I'm not doing commissions atm, I’m currently looking for illustration jobs (specially book covers), so don’t hesitate to email me at [email protected]

That's all for now, thank you for reading!! I think I covered most of the questions, I'll make another q&a post in the future! Bye~~

World Champions | Artwork for World Champions by TheDefenestrator by TheDefenestrator, art by Blurb_brain

Fandom: The King's Avatar | 全职高手

Rating: Teen And Up Audiences

Category: Gen

Words: 71 944

At the end of season 4 of the Glory Pro Alliance, the government finally receives the information it has been waiting for: The other players have caught up. Or, In which Glory has been a government recruitment ploy for remote-piloted mecha operators all along.

About the Book

FONTS: Mundo Serif, Azonix [dafont], Segoe UI Symbol

IMAGES: Illustration by Blurb_brain [AO3]; cover image by NASA ID: 440611 [Rawpixel]; Planet Earth background ID: 6331593 [Rawpixel]; Circuit lines background ID: 3117935 [Rawpixel]; endpapers' image by Eric Eastman [Unsplash]; Swoksaar, Desert Dust, Lord Grim, Vaccaria, and Cloud Piercer [The King's Avatar Wikia]

MATERIALS: regular printer paper (8.5"x11", 96 bright, 20lb), 80pt bookboard, Iris Bookcloth (colour: Black Pearl), Neenah cardstock (8.5"x11", bright white, 65lb), waxed linen thread (white, 30/3 size), embroidery floss (shades 3750, 350, 3845, 370), leather cording (1.9mm diameter), Reeves’ acrylic paint (Mars Black, Phthalo Blue, Titanum White), Americana acrylic paint (glow in the dark), ph neutral pva glue (Books by Hand)

PROGRAMS USED: Typeset in Affinity Publisher, cover/title page/endpapers designed in Affinity Designer/Photo, QR codes generated with LibreOffice Writer, PDF arranged for printing with Bookbinder-JS

BINDING STYLE: quarto, case bound (slightly rounded, with oxford hollow, forgot to use tapes)

Fenes' "Glory's tech isn't handwaved" AU. This was great! Funny and creative, and I'm both amazed and full of admiration for Fenes' ability to juggle so many characters.

I was feeling excited and ambitious with this one. Tried some new fun things (double core endbands, painted edges) and used some new equipment (a lying press).

The Text

TITLE/HEADINGS FONT: Azonix says 'SciFi' to me, it's a bold, non-serif, sleek font.

BODY FONT: Mundo Serif, it's a decent serif body font I haven't used before. Felt like it worked with Azonix.

SCENE BREAKS: a special character in Segoe UI Symbol of a black & white icon of Earth, the globe showing Asia.

TYPESETTING: Finished typesetting the fic, left document open on my laptop, laptop's battery failed, file now crashes immediately upon reopening, issue persists with copied versions of file (；￣Д￣) . Thankfully I had a backup file for the typeset with the barebones of the text, so I didn't have to restart from scratch...

Title Page

My thinking: it takes place in space, the world's at stake, and it's the dawn of a new horizon for Earth. Glory and the titular champions are represented by Swoksaar, Desert Dust, Lord Grim, Vaccaria, and Cloud Piercer – the captains of what I'd call the 'big 5' teams. A circuitry board background element hints at the tech/mecha nature of the story's competition. It may not match Blurb's art, but I hope I was able to convey some of what the story is about.

The circuitry image is used as decoration throughout the book. I only used the avatars of the top five teams' captains because too many silhouettes would lessen their impact and readability. (Removing the backgrounds was tedious, but worth it.)

Here's what it should have looked like. The test prints for this and the BB art were fine, but I think my inkjet started running out of ink just when I printed the final copies and I didn't reprint them. (Too impatient, really wanted to finish up and read the book)

The Cover

World Champions is another Big Bang fic, and once again I based some of my design choices off of the accompanying artwork. The dominant colours of Blurb_brain's illustration are red and blue-green.

COVER PAPER: For the decorative cover material I used NASA's ASTER image of Poyang Lake. NASA has some really interesting photography some of which remind me of marbled paper, thought it could be interesting. I chose this image of Poyang Lake because 1) it's in China, 2) the colours were similar to Blurb's awesome illustration (fate strikes again, dropping matching images and artwork into my lap!), and 3) NASA is tangentially relevant to the fic, which takes place in space.

BOOKCLOTH: Verona bookcloth in the shade Black Pearl, a lovely dark navy blue colour. Thought it suited the cover paper and title page. (Bought it for this fic specifically, but the colour goes well with almost all of my decorative papers so it should see a lot of use in the future!)

Endpapers

The final decision that held this project at a standstill for two months. In the end I drew inspiration from the matchups against the final opponent in the story. The image I used is a little chaotic and a little too unrelated to identify why I picked it without an explanation, but this book is for me and I know why, so there. (Note that I played around with the colours and cropped the photo.)

Endpaper inspiration: the maps for the matches against the Infilhites

"a long bridge through an enormous tube-like hall, where light seem to come from every side through stained glass windows. It was visually confusing, limited lateral motion" "a warehouse, crates stacked on and beside metal racks that went all the way to the ceiling." "a house of mirrors, fully enclosed to be sure the Infhillte couldn’t fly out of it." "like a volcano, rivers of lava moving sluggishly down a slope, occasional vents of overheated air nearby." "a series of overlapping bridges between halls and stairways, level after level layered over an open abyss."

Trimming & Painting the Edges

Going all out, a 2-for1 deal: the opportunity to use my lying press for the first time and learn a new technique!

TRIMMING: Used a paring chisel and lying press.

CHISEL: The 1.25" wide paring chisel I used was form a modern manufacturer. (Vintage paring chisels are very thin, enough so that you can bend/flex the blade. But don't do that.) It's long and wide blade made it easier to register against the surface of the press for consistent cuts. Looks like this one below from Lee Valley.

LYING PRESS: My dad's project. Solid black walnut, hand carved screws and internal threads — he even made the tools to make the threads too! The jaws of the press are each 3 7/8" wide. It's big and heavy (though much smaller than full-sized professional ones omg), but there's enough of a flat surface to register the chisel against. A thicc boi, much like this one below from Bookbinding Supplies.

PAINTED EDGES: The idea was to have dark navy edges, speckled with white stars. I used acrylic from a tube to paint the edges — tutorials recommended it over liquid bottled acrylic, and I had an old set hanging around. Had to water it down because otherwise the paint just flaked off.

My test of trimming and painting went well. Then the trimmed book itself came out slightly crooked, the paint required significantly more watering-down than before, and the white paint did not want to be both opaque and speckle-able. Unfortunate, but still book-shaped! And now I have an idea of what to do differently next time.

Also, did not like the glow-in-the-dark paint. Looked too translucent in the light when compared to the white acrylic, and needed a thicker coat to be visible in the dark. (The thickness combined with the translucence and base colour kinda reminded me of boogers... Ended up scrapping most of it off, so there's not much left to glow.)

Endbands

Still in the mood to have fun and go all-out, I attempted double-core endbands for the first time.

TUTORIAL: YouTube @ BookbindersChronicle: Bookbinding 101 Sewing Headbands Session 2. Also watched @ DAS Bookbinding's Double-Core Endband // Adventures in Bookbinding, but I personally found Chronicle's closeup video easier to follow.

I used embroidery floss from a 100pk of assorted colours off Amazon, wrapped around a core of 1.9mm leather cording from Michaels. I drew from Blurb_brain's art for the general colours, choosing a dark base, with red, blue-green, and gold. The specific shades were picked to go with the cover.

Tried to fit all my fic ideas on one page, but I still forgot some because they're like... scrawled on random pieces of paper all over my house/in different notebooks/ect. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I tried!

The little branchy-offy things are prequels/sequels of that particular series. Bleeped out things I thought might be spoiler-y to ongoing series. Things with * are super WIP-y titles because I dunno what to call them.

More ramblings under the cut! (Nothing spoilery for the ongoing series; just vague things!)

No Heroes Zone // - I have a lot more generalized worldbuilding, character notes, ect than actual stories. The story ideas are mostly vague/short... Though, I suppose I could stand to write some super short fics. - The exception is an angsty sonighty fic that's basically done, but I just have to fill in all the inbetween, connecty bits. And decide how sonighty-y I really want to go with it. That ship came outta nowhere, I tell ya. - NHZ is really mostly Tails (and Metal) angst, tho. The other day I was thinking about how he tries to latch onto Shadow and even Metal in the absence of having Sonic and was like "Wow, Tails, clingy much? What are you, Nine???" then I felt really bad. T-T; He just misses his brother...!

Kaleidoscope // - The name of this fic is based on an art piece I've been wanting to do for forever: A kaleidoscope of Tails/Nine/Mangey, looking at each other and seeing them each from their own perspective. Because that's the theme of the whole story, funky scifi weirdness aside. But uh, 1) didn't have a decent digital art program for a bit and 2) I'm not good enough at drawing the subtle differences in their appearances to really make it hit how I wanted. Also 3) Tails looks basically the same to all three of them, lmao. - "Mangey Remembers" is Mangey's backstory and "Loneliness*" is... Less of a backstory for Nine, more of a brief showcase of his character in general. Because we already know Nine's whole deal from canon. Same reason Tails doesn't have a backstory- he's supposed to be canon Tails. - "Starless Sky" and "Ruination*" are both poteeeential sequels, but I'm not set on doing them. Ruination would just be a short, noncanon "what if?" bad ending for the heck of it.

Someplace AU (Aquarius) // - Also halfway calling it Aquarius for now because I ended up continuing the first part of the story under that fic name.

- It was originally more focused on Sails, hence Someplace being a play on No Place. But now it's about equally Kit and Sails. I ended up getting SO MANY effing ideas for these dudes, man. ;w;

- "Hollow Existence*" isn't a specific story, but just a sprinkling of scenes/backstory bits that detail why Kit is the way he is. Mostly his relationship with Surge growing up.

- "Sails' Tales" is likewise a collection of random Sails backstory bits. I have a lot more specific/fleshed out things for him, though. BUDDY, did I have fun with the No Place lore. Also, his relationships with Catfish and Black Rose are so cute... ;A;

- The bits to the right are basically going to be chapters in Aquarius. They're vague enough not to be spoilery (other than the blipped ones...)

- "=D?" is a sequel that I'm very excited about. Probably shouldn't say much beyond that.

Everything Else // - CaveTails is a Journey to the Center of the Earth-esque silly, silly thing. That could maybe become a bit more serious? BAsically, I was thinking "Huh, kind of weird that my main kittails fic is with Sails. That'd be funny if I did ones with Nine and Mangey, too. Just for the lulz. Especially the Mangey one." This is the Mangey one. xD Except he's sort of like... Tails AND Mangey at the same time, character-wise? So? :? Also, potentially some wholesome Sonic+Tails moments because I weirdly haven't written any of those yet.

- "Kids" is just a continuation of that goofy Tails Doll+Cream oneshot. Just small ideas for another chapter or two. Cute friendship, fluff, and lots of comfort to make up for the hurt in the first chapter. :3;;

- "Alien*" is what it says on the tin. I have a couple different ideas for how it could go. One of them boots out Silver entirely and had Metal in his place. xD But I might have enough material to write an alien Silver AND alien Metal fic. We'll see whenever I get around to it. :3

- "Nine's Shadow*" is something I've wanted to write ever since I made that joke oc, Stales the Fox aka Zombie Tails variant from the Grim. Probably just a oneshot (or a few short chapters) fic that mostly focuses on Nine being "all alone" after the ending of Sonic Prime.

- "Why is Babies?*" is the second idea I had for a fic. It's just Shadow being awkward and not knowing how to look after a chunk of the main cast that are suddenly tots for unknown reasons. It's very lighthearted, comedic, and cute. Originally a Shadow+Metal fic until I learned more about Eclipse and just HAD to include him. Dude is literally a struggling single parent in canon, how could I not include him in a story about his brother going through something similar? xD Also, I might call this fic "Rascals" as a reference to that one Star Trek episode with a similar premise. Because! Star Trek. 8D

- "The Fifth Element" ... I have put off posting anything about this fic idea for so long because I'm EMBARRASSED IT'S SO STUPID AND CORNY DON'T LOOK AT ME,,, In case you're totally lost, the 1997 film of the same name is my. Favorite movie. So naturally, this was my first idea for a fic. It's so all-over-the-place tonally, though. Obviously, got a LOT of silly, especially the parts that follow the movie almost exactly. But I also added a lot of original bits that help flesh out the characters' relationships. The protag is Shadow, who is very, very soft and introspective in it. Which, like, how did that happen??? But I love it. Metal is his co-lead and is mostly goofy because he's a fish out of water. Sonic is VERY, VERY goofy like goddamn (he's Ruby Rod- if you know, you know). Then there's just the silliest shit ever like Silver. Silver is Shadow's cat. It's stupid, but it's also fun, and maybe even matters to the plot. You don't know. Blaze is the president. Dr. Starline, Surge, Eggman, and The End are in it. Tails has the smallest part of any of my fics, but I think I cast him well. I need to stop now or I never will. Don't look at me. xDD

But yeah, as I said, I forgot a lot of other ideas. A few more (still forgetting some, I'm sure): - "Creature from the Black Lagoon" ft. kittails - Steam Powered Giraffe-vibes 50's thing w/ Tails, Cream, and automatons of Kit, Surge, Metal, Belle, Gemerl, ect - Tails Doll trying to be a Real Boy(tm) - Kittails-focused folklore AU with Kit as a kelpie and Tails as a normal mobian. Bunch of other people as fae creatures and villagers, including Starline as the main villain. - Maybe a whispangle oneshot from the above au (Tangle is a mobian, Whisper is. basically a magic wolf? xD) - Knuckles/Tails role-swap

FIC REC WEEK 47 – CANON DIVERGENCE

AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT: RiotFalling

What RiotFalling excels at, in my opinion, is Bucky and Tony's intricate inner monologue. Their descriptions of what each character is going through at any given moment really get under my skin. And on top of that, RiotFalling's voices for them are hilarious – their banter makes my entire day every time I read one of their fics.

Here's some of their work that I think you should check out:

A Work in Progress: You and I

Pairing: Bucky/Tony Rating: M Words: 33,937 Tags: BDSM AU, Banter, Cuddling

Summary: It’s not just the cabin that’s under construction, it’s Tony and Bucky and this thing between them that was supposed to be temporary and is seeming less and less so as time goes on.

Reasons why I love it: This fic cleansed my pores, watered my crops, paid my taxes. It gave me everything I love – hilarious banter, Dom/Sub goodness, shmoopy smut, it's all so incredibly satisfying to read. I love it more than I can say, and I really hope you give it a shot if you haven't already.

I had no choice (but baby to get it right)

Pairing: Bucky/Tony Rating: T Words: 2,576 Tags: Soulmates, BAMF Tony, CA:CW

Summary: After all those years of furtively dreaming about it, reading everything from scientific papers to romance novels, after all the times he told himself not to but still hoped, Tony thought he knew what to expect if this day ever came. Finally, after all this time, all the worrying and wondering and telling himself to just give up already, he finally meets his soulmate and finds out what all the hype is about, and it has to be like this. It just has to be Barnes.

Reasons why I love it: Aaaah, this fic is everything! The inner monologue is perfection, both Tony's and Bucky's feelings and thoughts feel so real, I'm in awe. And the ending puts the biggest smile on my face. Also, there's fantastic art by Sagana_Rojana_Olt in here, which you definitely don't want to miss out on!

Show Tunes and Extra Sauce

Pairing: Bucky/Tony Rating: T Words: 4,499 Tags: Bodyguard Bucky, Valentine's Day, Mutual Pining

Summary: So maybe three years in Bucky is completely in love, and this might be his first bodyguard gig but he's pretty sure that's breaking Rule One. It's definitely one of the top five rules, at the very least. He can't even be surprised with himself either, not when it's Tony. Bucky’s job is basically to hang out with his crush all the time, and sure sometimes he gets shot or stabbed or has to physically drag Tony out of his lab when he starts sleep-deprived-rambling about building some piece of tech from a scifi movie, but most days Bucky doesn't have a single thing to complain about. And then there's Valentine's Day.

Reasons why I love it: This is the cutest fucking thing, oh my god, I love it. All of Tony's friends obviously being in on his plan just makes it even better. If you need some good vibes today, definitely check this one out, it's amazing!

I call out to you

Pairing: Bucky/Tony Rating: M Words: 18,528 Tags: BDSM AU, Therapy, Light Angst

Summary: Making friends is not something Bucky thought he’d be doing after all these years, but here he is, taking a risk. On himself, on Tony, on everything, it seems. Tony is... unused to being happy. That’s not to say he IS happy, but the feeling residing in his chest these days feels a lot more like happiness than anxiety. It’s fine. Everything is fine. Right?

Reasons why I love it: RiotFalling and WhiteIronWolf do a fantastic job with the two perspectives in this fic. I love the therapy session in the beginning, it really suits Bucky's character, and it's amazing to see how well he's doing for himself. And of course, Sam is the best bro, I love him. This fic is wonderful, and you should definitely read it!

Those Three Words (Let Me Help)

Pairing: Bucky/Tony Rating: M Words: 21,267 Tags: Flashbacks, Bucky Needs a Hug, Angst

Summary: Something is wrong. It’s all wrong and Bucky just wants— He hurts and he can’t— it wasn’t supposed to be like this. This isn’t how Tony thought his Friday would be going, but he’s going to do whatever he can to help. Even when things go further off plan than he ever expected.

Reasons why I love it: The way this fic is written really got under my skin, especially the beginning. It's visceral and raw and left me with a lingering sense of dread, it's amazing. RiotFalling and WhiteIronWolf really outdid themselves here! I hope you give this one a shot, because it's amazing.

Ask and you shall receive the wonderful vod'ika!

For your 650 Followers, could we have Dogma in a Mystic AU 👀 either the one you already have going on or, consider, he's an Indiana Jones type (who is mostly trying to get ahead of robbers, but not "it belongs in a museum!").

Hope this is what you're looking for 💙💙 thank you for writing amazing fics.

Hopelessly Devoted

Summary: You and Dogma have been partners for years now, there’s no one on the planet you trust more, and you like to think that he feels the same way about you. Unfortunately, Dogma keeps his thoughts close to his chest. And you honestly have no idea where you stand with him.

Pairing: Clone Trooper Dogma x GN!Reader

Word Count: 1889

Prompt: Indiana Jones/Warehouse-13/The Librarian AU

Warnings: None

Tagging: @trixie2023 @n0vqni @imabeautifulbutterfly

A/N: Alright, I finally got this to a place where I'm happy with it. This is more Warehouse-13 and The Librarian AU than Indiana Jones, but really, all three of them are very similar if you think about it. Warehouse-13 was a SciFi show, followed a pair of Secret Service agents while the traveled to collect dangerous artifacts. The Librarian followed a Librarian who's job it was to collect dangerous artifacts from around the world. Warehouse-13 had things like Edgar Allen Poe's journal and pen, while the Librarian had things like Excalibur. Although, I think all three had the Arc of the Covenant.

“Careful, you don’t want to drop it,” Dogma warns you as he watches you slide the Arc of the Covenant into its place on the shelf.

“I know, Dogma.” You reply with a roll of your eyes, “Have I ever dropped anything before?”

Dogma doesn’t reply until he’s sure that the Arc is secure, and then he activates the security system around the ancient artifact, “There was that one time with the White Rabbit,” He reminds you as he turns to look at you.

You sputter indignantly, “That is like comparing apples and oranges, Dogma!”

A small grin lifts his lips, “Is it?”

“You can’t compare a golden box to a living, breathing animal!”

“I can, and I did.” His grin widens as he watches you, and then he turns and motions for you to follow him, “Come on, let’s get out of here.”

You chase after him until you’re walking next to him, “And you’ll finally let me treat your injuries?” You ask as you eye the nasty cut over his eye.

“Yeah, yeah.”

“Don’t ‘yeah, yeah’ me. I’m worried about you. You got hit, hard.”

Dogma leads you to the small gold cart that the pair of you use to navigate the storage building, “Better me than you. Besides, me getting hit gave you the time you needed to actually get to the artifact.” He slides behind the steering wheel, and you climb in next to him.

“We both know that if they opened the Arc they would have been killed. Our interference was pointless.” You grumble.

“Saving lives is never pointless.”

“They were terrorists, Dogma.”

He flashes a small grin at you, “All life is valuable.”

“Some lives are more valuable than others.” You counter, “And the lives of terrorists are less important to me than your life.”

“Supposed terrorists.” Dogma corrects as he starts the cart.

“Supposed my ass. You saw the auction list. It was like a who’s who of the world’s nastiest murderers.”

“And yet, their lives still have value.”

You heave out a sigh, “And this is why you’re the boss and I’m the assistant.”

“You’ll get there eventually.”

“Not really sure I’ll ever get to the point where I’ll look at bad people and think ‘Oh yes, these people are definitely worth my time and effort’.” You reply dryly.

He flashes you an amused look and then starts paying attention to the path again. It would be bad if he crashed into anything in here. A very good way to kill the both of you.

Luckily, even half concussed, Dogma is a very good driver. So you feel comfortable kicking your feet up on what you’d call the dashboard, though you’re sure that’s not what it’s called, and you slouch in the seat.

You’ve been an “employee” of this agency for close to two years now, and Dogma’s underling for almost that long. He transferred in from another division a couple of months after you were forced into the position.

You allow your gaze to slide over to Dogma for a moment, tracing what part of the face tattoo you can see, and then you focus your attention on the rows of shelves again.

Dogma’s a soldier, just like all of his brothers. One of an army of two million identical men. You asked him, once, what the deal with that was, and he just shrugged and changed the subject.

The Program’s director, later, admitted to you that Dogma and his brothers are a result of an artifact used by a large group of unscrupulous cloners.

Their plan, you were told, was to create an army of super soldiers and then sell them to the highest bidder. Luckily for the world, the Jedi got there first and claimed the clones as their own.

When you first heard that story, you thought it was a joke. Something that the director told you to make you a little more agreeable to working with Dogma.

Then you start to meet his brothers, and they really are completely identical.

Still, Dogma’s route to this division is normal, from what you understand. The director picks through hundreds of personnel files and finds the right person for the job.

If only you had been so lucky.

You like to think that you aren’t a bad person. A little greedy, and a lot lazy, but neither of those traits are inherently bad. Unfortunately, when you combine greed and laziness with a neglectful childhood, you have the perfect mixture for someone becoming a criminal.

Once upon a time, you were a thief.

Well, okay, less thief and more grifter.

You have a knack for walking into a room and determining which person in the room is the easiest mark and which person would be the most profitable.

About two years ago, you managed to get your hands on an artifact, a locket. An artifact that you stole from a local museum.

To this day, you’re not sure why you took it. The item made your skin crawl, and you wanted nothing more than to destroy it, but you found yourself unable to get rid of it.

The director saved your life.

The pendant belonged to Countess Elizabeth Báthory, a woman who, historically, was known for murdering young women and bathing in their blood.

After that day, the Director forced you to be a junior in his division. His threat was simple, if you don’t then you’ll be turned in to the police and arrested for your many, many crimes.

And, well, you’ve never been a stupid person, so you agreed.

Now, two years later, you’re glad you did. You travel the world and are still able to keep your skills sharp. But, much more importantly, you get to spend your free time with Dogma.

You trust Dogma, he knows more about you than anyone on the planet who isn’t you, and you like to think that he feels the same way. But Dogma keeps his feelings close to his chest.

While you’re pretty good at reading him, after almost two years, you’re still not sure where you stand with him.

Which is a shame, because you’ve been in love with him for almost a year now.

The cart comes to a stop, and Dogma pushes your feet off the dashboard, as he removes the key from the cart. “Come on, I think I saw the director upstairs.”

You groan theatrically, but follow Dogma up the narrow staircase and through the shut door that leads to where you and he do almost all of your research.

The director is an older man, with pure white hair and thick glasses. You’ve never seen him in anything other than a strict suit, though you’re pretty sure that he has a family somewhere.

“I have a new job for you,” The director says, his voice clipped.

“Already?” Dogma asks as he sinks into a chair and tilts his head back to allow you to actually tend to his injuries.

“I wouldn’t insist if it wasn’t important,” The director replies, falling silent for a moment to watch you set the first aid kit on the table and pop it open, “Pandora’s Box has reappeared.”

Both you and Dogma freeze.

The both of you have been hunting Pandora’s box for close to 8 months now. Every time you get close, the box vanishes again. Stolen, or sold, or just lost.

“Where is it?” You ask.

“Rome.” The Director replies, “It’s on display. At the Vatican.”

Dogma releases a laugh, “Oh, easy then.”

You make a face, “The Vatican knows our faces,” You remind the both of them, “We did have to steal the shroud from them, after all.”

The Director nods, “I am making arrangements. Just make sure that the both of you are prepared.” He nods once more, and then stalks out of the room, leaving the faint scent of cigars in his place.

Dogma allows you to finish cleaning and tending to his injury, before he hops to his feet, “Pandora’s box, how long has it been?”

“Eight months,” You reply, “That was when the first report was made, at least.”

“We should start making flight arrangements—”

“Hold on!” You move and press your hands on his chest to stop him from heading to the computer, “We need to wait for the Director to make arrangements. We’re both wanted in Italy.”

His lips twist, “This is the closest we’ve been in months—”

“I know. But we’re not going to accomplish anything if we’re in jail.”

Dogma stares at you and then sighs. “I know you’re right.” He murmurs, his hands coming up to wrap around yours, and squeezing, “I just want Pandora’s Box sealed away. It’s dangerous.”

“Everything we work with is dangerous. I don’t think there’s a single thing down there that isn’t dangerous.” You point out, “Pandora’s Box is empty, at least according to the stories.”

“Of everything except hope.”

“Exactly.” You scan his face for a moment, “We should continue our inventory while we wait for the Director to work his magic.”

Dogma smiles at you, soft and warm. “What did I do to deserve a partner as amazing as you?”

“Well, you accepted a transfer.” You lightly tug your hand from his grasp and reach up to lightly pat his cheek, “Smartest thing you’ve ever done, I think.”

“Yeah, yeah.” He scans your face for a moment, “I need to tell you something—”

“Alright,” You prompt as he trails off.

“I,” Dogma hesitates, “I just…” He sighs, “You know what, it’s not important.”

You stare at him suspiciously, “Oh, come on Dogma. Just tell me.”

“It’s really not important.”

“You said you needed to tell me, so tell me!”

He releases an explosive sigh, “Fine! I love you! I’m in love with you. Have been for ages now, and I felt like you needed to know. There, happy?”

You blink at him, stunned. “You love me?”

“You’re going to make me repeat it?” Dogma asks with a scowl, “Yes, I love you. You can proceed with your mocking now.”

You continue to stare at him, and then you giggle. You feel euphoric like you’re walking on air. Before Dogma can say something mean about your giggling, you fling your arms around him and bury your face against his neck.

You feel him tense under you, and he hesitates before he wraps his arms around you, gingerly holding you, as though you’re made from fragile glass. “What are—?”

“I love you too.”

The tension drains from Dogma so suddenly, that the both of you nearly topple to the floor. His arms tighten around you, and he presses his nose into your hair, “You do?” There’s something small and almost frail in his voice, it makes you tighten your arms around him.

“I do.”

Gently, he pushes you back so he’s able to look at you. His dark eyes scan your face for a moment, and a small smile lifts his lips, “You’re telling the truth.”

“I generally do, just no one believes me.”

Dogma crashes his lips against yours instead of offering an answer. You sigh into the kiss and submit to his passion, it’s everything that you’ve wanted, after all.

You have a feeling that you and Dogma are going to be even better partners from here on out.

Surprising @ask-sibverse with a T1DReader involving a baby Swad. Because Baby Floof is the best! @ancha-aus you might like this reverse take on tiny guardian babies too!

Also! This takes place in an ScienceFell AU! A concept made by @jumpybox and the Sans and Papyrus are known as Scifi and Ferrer. These two are based off her designs.

You heard the crying and didn't know what was going on. You were already dealing with the headache from having a rollercoaster night and getting woken up when you crashed on the couch was not what you were expecting at 7am. It just made your headache worse. The crying continues so you finally get up and try to pinpoint where it was coming from.

It sounded like it was outside your door so you opened it up to see... A baby? Not only that, it was a strange skeleton baby. They looked up at you with huge eyes, one was orange with a normal yellow eyelight while the other socket was red with a yellow eyelight in the shape of a sun. The tiny kid has wings on his back in a mix of orange, yellow, and red feathers with a halo over his head. And he was crying hard. You looked around, trying to see who left the baby at your doorstep. He looked about 2 years old or a bit younger. It was hard to tell since he was wrapped in some fur.

No one was around, and all was quiet other than the crying skeleton. You didn't feel you had a choice so you picked him up and held him in your arms. He ended up clinging to you as he cried, wings flapping in distress.

"Shh shh... It's okay. We will find your family little one," you said as you tried to comfort him. At that he looked at you and the crying slowed down a bit at hearing you wanted to find his family.

"Nini..." He tried to say. You didn't know who Nini was, but they must be important to the kid.

"We will find Nini, don't worry," you say as you rubbed his back between his wings. You walked out the door and stepped on something. Looking down you find a piece of paper that seems to be painted on with the word Dream. "Dream?" The kid perked up at hearing the word and pointed at him. You nodded and picked up the paper and put it in your pocket. Maybe Sans can help find his family.

"So your name is Dream. That's a pretty name sweetheart," you say to him. You give his wings pets which ended up making him purr. What to do now?

Dream started sniffling again and rubbed his stomach area from the clothes he was wearing. Which were a simple blue t shirt and yellow pants. Not something really suiting the baby. You sighed and took him inside. Wondering what kind of food baby skeletons eat. You didn't have magic milk or anything, but you did have that pudding Sans brother made for you in case of lows.

You took it out and grabbed a spoon as you tried to feed it to Dream. At first he stared like he didn't know what pudding was, so you showed him by taking a bite and holding up another spoonful to him. He ate it and hummed at the taste trying to grab at the bowl for more.

"Hey, I'll feed it to you sweetie. Give me a chance," You said as you fed him more. He kept grabbing at the spoon and made a mess of himself as he ate and chirped happily. At least he wasn't crying anymore. You fed him the rest of the pudding and he yawned in your arms and closed his eyes.

He was clinging to you hard, so you didn't think you could put him down. You sighed and went to clean him up at least. You needed to eat something yourself, probably gummies again, and then go to Sans's house. Maybe he would have answers about a new skeleton family in town that lost a kid.

After cleaning him and doing what you could clean the clothes and blanket, somehow the fur on the blanket is super clean despite being in the line of fire, you left the house with the sleeping baby clinging tight to you and not letting go. At least Sans's place was only down the block since you took walks past it and that was how you met him and Papyrus in the first place. You came to the door and knocked on it.

When the door opened, you found yourself face to face with the hooded skeleton that now lived with Sans. You believe he was a cousin of some sort. "Hey Dust, do you know where Sans is?"

Dust looked at you before he nodded, giving a look at the toddler in your arms. "He's in the basement with the others. Wait here," he said before going inside.

It wasn't long before Sans came up with another cousin you think was named Mutt. He had his own fluffy hoodie up as he looked at the scene before him. Sans took off the goggles over his sockets to give a better look at the situation.

"Y/N? Where the fuck did you find that baby?" He asked as he looked you up and down.

"I found him crying on my doorstep with only a piece of paper with his name," you said as you took out the paper and handed it to him. "Are there any new skeleton families that moved in? Or new family members?"

Sans shook his head and gave a look at the paper. He cursed under his breath, showing it to Mutt who made a face. "Did you see anyone around him?" The latter asked you.

"No? Just him," you say. "He was asking for someone named Nini too..."

Sans and Mutt gave a look at each other while Sans pulled out his cellphone and they walked away. You felt so confused and lost what was going on. They are acting like there are no new skeletons in the city. So where?

"Y/N! It's wonderful to see you! Who do you have there?" asked the voice of who you recognized as Papyrus. He was so not like the other monsters that came out of the mountain some years ago. His eyelights were green instead of red for one. And he always was working on new recipes with his cousin Axe.

"Umm... His name is Dream and I found him crying on my doorstep," you said as you shifted said baby as it was getting harder to hold him. You were not strong and was reaching your limit. Papyrus saw that and grabbed you to drag you inside to pull you to the couch.

"Sit sit, I insist!" He said. You sat down, grateful to take some pressure off your arms as you settle yourself to let Dream just drape to your chest. Papyrus seemed to coo at the sight and took a picture of it. "Poor dear. I'm guessing you told my brother? I saw him walking by to talk to Black and Dust with Mutt," he said.

"Yeah, but I'm so confused. He acted like this was a surprise or something..." You said.

Papyrus's face changed to a scowl as he glanced at where his brother and the others disappeared to. He made a growl grunt in his throat. "My brother is always a fucking idiot with his secrets," he said. He sighs as he gives you a look and pets the child gently. "Dream looks so pretty. I never would have known how wings would be on a skeleton."

"Really? This isn't a thing for you guys? I mean the halo is a bit odd but not as odd as the other monsters I've seen for the last couple years since moving here," you said.

"Yeah the wings and halo are not typical for a skeleton as far as I know," Papyrus said. "I'm sure Sans will figure it out or blow something up again."

You wondered at that and felt Dream shift as he woke up on your chest. He looks at you and nuzzles you. "Mama..." He said. You froze.

"I'm not... I mean..." You flailed internally at this new development.

"Oh dear... I wonder if he had parents in the first place. He synced your SOUL to his," Papyrus said.

"Wait... What?" You asked as Dream kept nuzzling you.

"It can happen with orphan kids. I did it to Sans when I was small," Papyrus explained. "We tend to sync SOULs up to the person that makes us feel the safest. So he might not have parents."

"But... He kept asking for Nini..." You said. Dream looked at that and sniffled as he repeated the name.

"He might have a sibling then. Is Nini your sibling Dream?" Papyrus asked. Dream looked at him and nodded as tears fell from his eyes.

"Nini, twin. Want Nini," Dream sniffles more. You pet him to help calm him down again. Now that you focus on it, it did seem like your heart was beating in time with his SOUL. So he really got attached to you quickly. You wonder where he even came from.

"We are going to find your twin, don't worry Dream," you say as you rub his back. He hugged you tight again and settled down in your arms. Papyrus smiled at the sight.

"You really make a good parent Y/N," he said.

"I don't know how. I was an only child," you said.

Sans and the group came into the living room at last as he and the others looked at you. "Okay, we got in contact with someone that can take him for now and find his family," he said.

"Who?" You asked him.

"Don't worry about it Y/N. Just know he is in good hands," Sans replied. Papyrus shook his head.

"That's not gonna work Sans. Dream synced to them," he said. Sans eye seemed to twitch at that.

"What do you mean? He needs to go back where he belongs," the other growled.

"Sans what are you talking about? Where does he belong? Do you know where his brother is?" You asked.

Black was the one who answered. "You don't need to worry about it. He doesn't belong here. If he synced with you he can desync just as easily," he huffed as he came over and tried to pick up Dream.

You held the child tighter out of instinct as Dream cried when he was attempted to be pulled off you. "Mama! Mama!" He cried as Black pulled on him.

"Get off him!" You growled at Black. You didn't care how dangerous he was. You've seen him train with Papyrus and Dust a few times.

"Don't make this any harder," Black growled back at you. A bone attack hit him in the chest and knocked him away from the pair of you.

"BLACK ARE YOU A FUCKING IDIOT?! THE CHILD ACCEPTED Y/N AS HIS PARENT NOW AND YOU KNOW BETTER THAN TO SEPARATE A NEW BOND LIKE THAT!" Papyrus growled as he held up his hand. "SANS! STOP YOU AND YOUR FUCKING JERK TEAM FROM TRYING TO TAKE THE KOD AWAY!"

Sans glared at his brother who glared at him right back and rubbed his face. "Fucking hell. Fine," he said. "I'll tell them about this..."

"You better and tell them to find his brother too! Twins shouldn't be separated!" Papyrus growled.

Black growled as he got back up but Mutt picked up his brother and started shoving Dust away too, tho he looked more bored at the events if anything. "Come on, let's take a breather for now."

The rest of the group left you and Papyrus alone. Dream clung to you with tears in his eyes again. You sighed.

"What do I do now?" You asked.

"I'll teach you about baby skeletons and their needs and help with food. Axe will too!" Papyrus said. "We can do this together!" You nod at that and looked at Dream sleeping again in your arms, sucking his thumb this time. You guess you are a parent now. Who ever would have guessed this would happen in your boring life? Not you that's for sure.

(vibrates) it's slug time

loving the slang... "tightness all day long" "today is toasty". also love that "babes" survives way into the future. 15 this is ur legacy. "that woman was her sister" incest implication??? 2 minutes in

TURN LEFT /triggered

the design in this is impeccable.

this is so sims coded.... from the creators of "doctor who is a tv show" theory we bring u-> "doctor who is a videogame"

if u were disappointed with the focus on magic this ep this ep is rlly giving classic scifi parody lol

CRAZY DAYS

there's a lot of wordsmith-ing in this ep….eyes emoji

i love ruby sm now she's so resourful in every ep

this episode is like "this is how an anniversary multi-doctor multi-companion multi-master webcam special could still win"

ok but seriously. ppl are gonna be like "phones bad is dumb of course people look where they are!!!" bro. they dont. and yeah it can have deadly consequences. there's a reason "dont text and drive" campaigns happen.

ruby has done SO many callcenter type jobs forreal.

SLUG TIME SLUG TIME SLUG TIME.

DR PEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

this episode is amazing

"is that thing something to do with you?" bitch (i got a bit spoiled that she's a racist (damn "looking at tumblr for 2 secs to vibe check" habit) so im looking at this with more hindsight than u are supposed to sdlkfjd)

bluie light celeste and gold motif in ruby and the doc's backdrops? also fifteen in orange <3333333 my beloved

the interior design is ON POINT this ep "you dont know how to walk without the arrows?" "condescending much?" bitch

this episode is so fun lol

"fifteen nd ruby react channel" realness (WHICH…..HEY…….DO U KNOW WHAT PPL REACT TO………………………. T V SH O W S (clown make up fully on))

ruby has done so much service calling jobs forreal lol the sheer patience

the doctor really wanting to lose their minds here but having to hold it together is peak doctor sdkjfsd (also very realistic of the struggles i expected a black doctor to work thru)

there's a bit of a theme of instinct vs programming going on here.

"surrounded by this woodland forest thing. it's like, really natural"

hashtag obsessed with it the catharsis im feelin tbh. 2 ppl being like "yo mass killing is rlly wrong" while the cacophony of the internet ~fun goes on and on. where's the [fiction]

ITS LIKE LOVE ISLAND THE PLANET. BRO. bro im so WIRED IN /clown make up intensifies

penny pepper bean still strong holding the 12 ppl still in the tory party together in the year something something

"ruby and the doctor struggle to lie in the moment" is my favorite recurring trope

the doctor using the sonic as a remote right there……………….. im running out of clown make up ya'll

"you did NOT just "@everyone" realism

no one ever listens to the goths….

until its too late…

its interesting that there's no cameras in their feeds, tho. right? like. that's the layer i think it's profoundly different to irl in this satire / social crit. ppl are *locked out* of the real world bc they're looking at their screens, but they do that bc the screens are a constant waterfall of billions of camera footage either of individuals or coporations or institutions. always producing "content". so like is not that ppl dont "see" anythign irl but they see it all thru a filter or thru editing,,,, but its fine i get what the satire is going for slkdfj but yeah. i think thats why it may feel a bit "not quite capturing" of the current ~digital ethos

fifteen so close to losing it- fifteen if u want to go for a bit of a timelord victorious i wont judge. u can have it. as a treat.

doctor who is a videogame energy bbc merch idea -> zombies run type podcast but it's the doctor and ruby telling u where to go for a job so u dont die. (russel get on this)

YOU STILL HAVE BATTERY PROBLEMS

"this is your fault!" iconic. classic who

so many ppl have presumably died so far. god bless. we needed an ep like this. proper high body count who feels good. feels organic.

rip the au where these were the beatles. thats 1 theory im really gonna mourn for the rest of the series lol

plaza 55…… orphan 55 reference???

great abrogation sounds important.

"i will get out out of here. i promise" obligatory doctor mirroring moment.

oh shit.

"thi iss SO manual"

"hands off" I LOVE THEM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The doctor x companion x some bland guy love triangle DREAM omg

"he says they're saving us to eat for last (snob voice)maybe we're the most tasty" scream. this ep is so fun.

pentecost's style was so on point.

wasnt her battery running out? (i may have missed something sldkjf)

bro stop hitting the fucking gas pipes oh my goddddd

holy shit. RICKY NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

that was brutal.

racists are gonna hate this episode so much lol

fifteen getting to experience all the microaggressions/outright aggressions thirteen didnt. yay progress(???) "thats voodoo" holy shi t

"maintain the standards of finetime" rtd was pissed when writting this lol

fifteen is not doing all rightkids.

ncuti's "who's my doctor? he's a black man" prophecy comes FULL CIRCLE

fifteen looking at US tho…………… this is a tv show man. this is a tv show. this is - *im struggle against my straight-jacked as im graddged back to the cushion-walled cell*

the plot twist of this ep………… phones good actually. thank u phones. u are doing a service.

CONCLUSIONS!

so there's a lot of ways to chop this one…

"racism and capitalism still exists in the future" is a trope that it's kind of limiting / always grates me in some ways (it feeds into the anti-racism of ppl whose politics doesnt trascend idealist philosophy -> that is, it is an anti-racism that can't conceive of an end to racism bc it doesn't actually have a political project that address the material causes of racism and just tries to fix the "natural prejudices" away with "education". in other words, it cant portray a word without racism bc it cant *conveive* of one.) . however i think im more open to it this time / this series since s11 onwards the focus has been so much on telling stories about the present with scifi make up on. and i think this one manages to do that rlly well. ___

another vertice to look this one on is whether... is it really "doing anything" to have racism portrayed on screen (and other bigotry) in a scifi story? if u already experience racism or understand it happens, who is served by this? it's hurtful to watch and it's like missing the chance to "show a different world" is possible thru scifi. and the counterargument to that is on a """""color blind"""""" 2020s world it is rlly cathartic and re-affirming to have stories that *show* the realities of the world, and that dont shy away from showing those realities in fear of them coming off as "over the top" (bc they arent. some ppl will still walk away from this ep thinking "haha fun satires" but like. this is literally how White Rich People Talk. in real life.......) and again in this one time i think it works really well bc doctor who has… probably never done this? lol there's moments with martha and ryan for example, but never going this hard on it. but im open to discussion tbh. i think the angle of "is this a story about racism for white people to learn or is it a cathartic for *black / brown people to experience catharsis in" is gonna be one for fruitful discussion in the future. ___

besides the socio-political points,,,, bro this episode was a thrill ngl sdlkjf like so many simple, excellent moments like the girl walking into the light post. the made up slang and the real slang!!!!. the excellent interior design. "ruby and fifteen react to doctor who". just lots of fun little details. the execution was really inspired.

character point -> tbh fifteen at the end feels like a bit of Growth from like, ten at his worst moments -> "he's not the person you would have chosen to survive, but if you could decide who lives or dies, doctor, that would make you a monster"

also kinda wonder how this episde will hit for newbies / Not Us. i think a lot of its gut punch comes from dw never doing this before and so the strenght of subverting those expectations. is this an story that stands on its own w/o all the 60 years of context? we'll have to show it to our normie friends and see lol

#dw spoilers #dot and bubble #1500 words holy hsit #im chapping here babes

tag game du rpg ♡

règles du jeu:créer un nouveau billet en copiant-collant les questions ci-dessous, y répondre, puis tagger d'autres rpgistes !

Merci à @soeurdelune pour le tag!

depuis combien de temps fais-tu du rp? — 20 ans et quelques

quel était le premier personnage que tu as créé? — c'était une demi-elfe, sur un forum multivers final fantasy, j'avais 9 ou 10 ans, le personnage n'était pas plus développé que son nom et son statut.

quels sont les faceclaims que tu utilisais souvent à tes débuts? — j'ai commencé par du forum RP avec avatars dessinés, donc c'étaient surtout des images qui trainaient sur internet, puis j'ai eu quelques avatars tirés d'univers d'HP ou de manga (du Clamp notamment).

y a-t-il un genre/univers dans lequel tu n'aimes pas du tout rp? — le post-apo, mais je n'aime pas l'univers en général. les fos célébrités aussi.

quelles sont les dynamiques entre personnages/types de liens que tu aimes le plus? — ça dépend vraiment de mon humeur / envie du moment.

dans quels fandoms ou univers aimes-tu le plus rp? — sur forum, c'est généralement du surnaturel ou du city, en 1v1 j'aime beaucoup l'horreur, le surnaturel, la scifi (inventé ou genre star wars), parfois tiré de jeux vidéo, j'aime aussi beaucoup ce qui a trait au folklore ou aux légendes urbaines.

un personnage que tu ne joues plus actuellement mais que tu aimerais reprendre? — Stigandr, mais à chaque univers où je le joue, il finit par devenir le personnage antagonique - il est imbu de lui-même, hautain, couard, méprisant, mauvais père, yada yada. Mais c'est une dynamique que j'aime bien jouer, surtout dans des univers où il faut donner le meilleur de soi-même.

y a-t-il des archétypes de personnages que tu joues souvent? — les gens simples, souvent teuteus, ou avec de gros défauts sociaux ou physiques qui les handicape pas mal. des personnages qui sont malicieux également, j'aime le côté très chaotique.

y a-t-il un livre ou un écrit autre qui t'as beaucoup influencé·e pour écrire? — Chiens de la nuit de Kent Anderson, Les conditions idéales de Mokhtar Amoudi, L'eau du lac n'est jamais douce de Giulia Caminito, Les enfants des riches de Wu Xiaole, Le frère impossible d'Alexandre Feraga.

une recommandation pour finir (livre, film, ou pourquoi pas un forum)? — La série La première Loi de Joe Abercrombie si vous aimez la fantasy et en roman graphique, la série Il faut flinguer Ramirez si vous avez envie de rigoler un peu (ou Ecoute, jolie Marcia, de Marcello Quintanilha, pas du tout pour rigoler, mais le style graphique mouah).

☞ je tag: (c'est entièrement facultatif, si vous n'avez pas envie de le faire pas de pression !!) @gareauxtrains @ainsleywsin @ltcmdr-fredata @gp-kim @big-bish @crepuscule-pourpre @wiisemary @sm0keyb0nes @adjayd
