mockley time it's mockley time will you have some mockleys of mine
#my art#oc#mockley#anthro#furry#dinosaur#i think i like this mockley i think i'm guiding her to where she needs to be design-wise to fit in with her human cohorts#and the lines were fun as hell to render. mockley has so many textures#been in an art rut recently. feel like i'm guiding my art where i don't want it to go. and also feel limited in what i can do#big pity party basically lol but it's good to recognise that and be like well whatever. just do some studies and get back on track#less throwing myself against the same wall and more finding a ladder to get over it. which will involve more studies and less oc drawings#and also less comparing myself to other people and especially people younger than me who have amazing art it's BAD for you#compete with YOURSELF and you can neverrr lose. you can never lose if you have fun LOSING#learn to LOVE losing#my favourite vinny vinesauce quote and one of my favourite motivational quotes ever. he said it as a joke while salty at mario kart#but it's resonated positively in my life ever since hearing it#fall in love with failing.....learn to love losing....(said to myself)

tw: slight suicidal actions (but not really the batfam are wildly clueless to the actual context to danny's bullshit hes not suicidal--in this fic--he's dead get it RIGHT brucie)
Au where Batfam are entirely convinced that the new vigilante in Gotham, danny, has time travel powers because he can vanish away from their senses completely
This becomes a problem however when
Bruce searches for him because wants to save Jason. Danny can save Jason not in the--im a time traveler and i can bring him or you back from or to the past--but in the, I’m a ghost king and have domain over the dead haha
Batfam become really concerned watching Phantom fight because “if he has time travel powers why doesn’t he avoid getting hit every time he can” and get worried phantom is purposefully letting himself get hurt
Danny in all honesty is just vibin the entire time while the batfam is going crazy at every sliver of info they get about danny because like
okay hes a time traveler thats established they got over that
This guy whos somehow been able to stop and rehabilitate rouges (ghosts) in his town is 15??
he may be the kindest most self destructive kid they've ever met like who immediately agrees to help people who were trying to capture and interogate him because he 'thinks we are better than the last billionaire who did this' what the FUCK
Oh yeah and they find out as a bonus in the end that his normal unpowered form he is a teen with black hair and blue eyes (bruce no no dont do it dont--)
---
Bruce is losing his mind
Okay so at the start of this there’s an unknown vigilante (danny) that Batman tends to bump into. Except Batman isn’t sure what he is.
Every time they run into each other Batman can tell there should just be a person beside him but before he gets a glimpse and opens his eyes to empty fresh air.
A vigilante that can vanish before their very eyes?
What do the bats think about this?
They think this vigilante can control time and is doing that to sneak out of their gaze.
Now here’s where the funny part comes in
Bruce goes on a wild hunt to search for the vigilante with a plan. To make them turn back time so that he can save his son.
The problem with this?
Danny is not a time traveler most days–scratch that he's not one at all. He can save his son Jason though, in fact he wants to, it’s just he needs to figure out a way to do this whilst not blowing his cover that he is the goddamn ghost king.
So he pretends that he does have time powers and that he just… uh… needs a minute to figure them out… yeah that!
Cue Batfam getting progressively more worried about Danny because ‘if he could turn back time—why doesn’t he avoid those hits?’
They all kinda think Danny is like purposefully hurting himself so now Danny is forced to eat breakfast with them and sleep at their manor. I mean he’s confused at why they always look so worried about something but he’ll make sure Batman’s son gets home soon! Plus the rich people temporary-living-situation without all the ‘I want to adopt you’ billionaire bullshit is pretty sweet!!
(somewhere in the ghost zone jason is tearing up laughing at the batfam as they struggle to not burst into flames trying to figure out danny-- like for christs sake they think the ghost king is an american doctor who and are trying to get him to spill where his tardis is)
#dc x dp#dp x dc#fanfiction#danny phantom#batfam#danny fenton#bruce wayne#batman#jason todd#Batfam trying to be relatable to a time traveler: so... 1990 was sooo cool right?#danny sweatdropping having never passed basic history on his own w/o cheating since elementary: yea i loved seeing real life dinosaurs haha#dick born in 1990: what#mans never passed world history#dick is so sad#everyone keeps calling him a dinosaur now and its really getting to him#tim pointing at dick: this 24 year old is a FOSSIL#dick crying: leave me ALONE im still YOUNg and BEAUTIFUL#danny: i think I caused a new episode of family fights#batfam watching danny slam down from five stories of concrete worried as hell#danny casually getting up: whats up guys! whos ready to partay!!#batfam: haha... *silently dials hotline* ...mee#its been a bit since I last posted one of these so its not my best :(#Ill be sure to edit some good ones soon so yall can read :))#ohkay gn lovelies ^^#oh my god its only 12 nevermind i lied hey guys have a good afternoon#batfamily#danny is a little shit#batfam are so confused

them :) dino refs finally complete, so now i can make all the joke comics i want
design thoughts under the cut
aang- second hardest design to ge through. at first i couldn't decide on a species, and then i couldn't get the colors to work. believe it or not, bright yellow right next to bright blue is painful to look at. so instead i opted for an all orange color pallette. does he look like a candy corn? yes. and we love him for it. puny lil candy corn avatar
katara- sweet baby so easy, love her, perfect design, no tears shed except for joy. also GIGANTIC. non negotiable part of her design tbh. and aquatic dino!! spinosaurus was the only choice. the sail is meant to look like her necklace! isnt that cool. im so cool and talented.
sokka- nanuqsaurus is! maybe a cold weather dino. possibly. so we did that. he's smaller than his sister and he's mad about it :) also, him face is warriors paint!! and i know that atla water tribes didn't really have anything to do with orcas, but I love orcas and i wanted to give sokka some recognizably hunter-y pattern. so, orca white markings.
toPH- i am ENDLESSLY SUGFERING. do you know how many times i flip flopped on toph's species. do you understand how many hours i spent debating over the benefits of triceratops vs protoceratops?? ankylosaurus vs. pachysephalosaurus???? my agony is unending. im still unsure. sacrificing the concept that toph could take down a t rex (trike) for the small n unassuming character theme (proto). also the badgermole looking markings are cool i guess
zuko- this is where you pretend that im bot playing favorites when it comes to dino species. why is he a deinonychus? cuz i like big raptors, that's why. go away. dont look at me. he's cute. he looks like a bird and i love that for him. also something something aang and zuko similar species that specialize differently based on how their environments changed them, zuko an echo of the potential of flight and aang an echo of the potential to hunt. flock bird vs pack hunter. same but different.
height chart:
i really cant say if it's accurate at all to the real dinos, but i was lazy and didnt want to do math, so it's just eyeballed heights. the important part is that we understand how tiny aang is and how massive katara is
#pls ignore my theropod bias#im allowed to have favorite dinosaurs#even if they're basic bitch carnivores#also if you saw other versions of this post no you didnt#did you know if your internet dies when you're editing a draft on mobile and save it tumblr just posts it#that's so fuckin stupid#ANYWAY im posting now#and im bracing against the lower note count that i know is coming#i do this for me and it doesn't matter if other people like it#(pls like it i die without validation ahdgjshdg)#I AM DO NOT REQUIRE ATTENTION TO THRIVE#(i want. attention)#atla#atla dino au

my and my gf @bonegnaws spent the week illustrating and printing our first zines for a local zine fest (hers is a per-zine about werewolves!) We were not tabling, but just wanted to hand them out for free or trade and also to print just for ourselves for fun. We hope to make more zines in the future to have available on a digital storefront.
#zine#deinocheirus#dinosaur art#comics#zinecinnati#i included a page of basic descriptions of dinosaurs that appeared in the comic as incentive to get people interested in dinos#please talk to me about dinosaurs and prehistoric creatures

about ready
#pokemon#swsh#gym leader raihan#ft. flygon#had a vivid vision of this pose the other day and had to draw it. thats all thank you#I think after flygon's first appearance in anipoke whenever it comes up again the artists just go ''fuck it whatever''#and draw the legs however they want. it's basically a dinosaur in pmd#this is good for me bc I dont know shit abt fuck#flygon poses really well for how kinda awkward it looks on its own... but I also think abt like#duraludon being in the carwash. practically all the time its all I think about tbh#rest assured.#mim's infected me with the goggles vision I see raihan now I immediately wanna put a goggles on that man#they arent wrong tho. is the thing#is flygon an insect or a reptile.... the tail suggest something like a dragonfly but the neck doesnt seem to have#the shell structure that'd let it bend. thats at least skin#well. flygon is shapes. thats what it is. I enjoy it#I should sleep now... so many things happened today#I really gotta prep the fish tomorrow. dang. so many things on the list for tomorrow too...#have a good night lads. achieve flight

FINALLY I DRAW SOMETHING!!!!!!!
some Joseph, both young (around 1980 i'd say, when he was traveling w Stan a few years before the portal incident) and old (~2017, now an art teacher at Westchester High). i like to think the first one is a picture Stan took of him while they were traveling and the second one is his staff photo at WH. the more things change the more they stay the same. i might give em backgrounds and foregrounds to look like that
he's had that jacket since the 70s. real leather will last you.
no glasses alts + the first sketch below
#[holding him in my hands like a tiny baby bird]#idk if hes hiding something on his neck. he might be. those neck covers just happened. probably less embarrassing than Ford's tattoos thoug#also im not super interested in “what if Stan had a romance partner who helped him run the shack” type Stan/oc buuuuuuuut#unfortunately i am not immune to old man yaoi and have been thinking “ok BUT what if Jojo helped Stan run the shack” during this rewatch#i think theyre not super open about their relationship so Dipper & Mabel have no idea until the manotaur ep when Mabel realizes “woah......#“Grunkle Stan do you have a crush on Grunkle Jojo???”#[Joseph so called Grunkle Jojo bc “we've known each other long enough hes basically family”]#anyway Mabel tries to “fix Stan up” to help him ask him out & Jojo is fully aware its happening and says nothing bc Funny#they do tell her and Dipper at the end of the day bc since she went through all that trouble trying to set em up they should know#plus kids these days tend to be a lot nicer about gay people sometimes#also good: Jojo giving Stan A Look every time he's shitty or sexist but otherwise not caring about any other morally dubious/bad thing#like Jojo can excuse regular tax fraud/stealing/scamming people but he draws the line at almost getting Waddles eaten by a dinosaur#hes the worlds most “not my circus not my monkeys” moral compass#hes said that before. and Dipper points out that it IS his circus bc he helps run the shack#to which he responds “hah. yeah :)” bc he helps do the fraud and scams <3#fuck i have to draw that as a comic or fake screenshots or something#anyway im not planning on focusing on a Mr's Mysteries AU but i may talk about it occasionally#ANYWAY ANYWAY i wanna talk about him i love talking about him send some asks let me talk about him <3#oc: Joseph van Dyke

Today's been pretty shit at work like usual and I found myself thinking about Stan...about how despite the way he looks and how his diet is crap, he DOES do a lot of manual, physical labor especially hauling shit around to get the portal built....he's probably got. Pretty strong arms. And pretty good stamina.
#jane journals#LOOK AWAAAAAAY >////<#GOD I WAS TELLING MY PARTNER TODAY THAT ITS SO JOEVER#LIKE??#i feel like we both started falling for him at the same time but im definitely more focusdd on him#LOOK WHAT THEY DID TO ME#like we watched the dinosaur episode last night and during Stan's story about punching the pterodactyl#its funny because its SO exaggerated and the visuals show him all ripped which hes definitely NOT#HOWEVER...HE DOES ACTUALLY PUNCH THE PTERODACTYL IN THE END!!!!#maybe hes not ripped and maybe he has his days where his oldness REALLY catches up to him#i mean dude needs an orthopedic back pillow for cryin out loud#but hes still got it basically#hes still pretty capable 🥴🥴🥴💖💖💖#crush: ❓️#btw the only thing keeping him on the crush list and off the f/o list is no ideas for a ship tag...YET!!!

whatever you do, don’t think about Charmy wanting Vector to play with him by landing on the middle of the croc’s back so he can’t catch him while Vector is trying to reach and get him off, while simultaneously making it into a game, spinning the two of them around and pretending to not know that’s its him and some random person trying to attack him.
Just…don’t think about that cute scenario.
.....EXCUSE ME? Bro, BRO
You are CRAZY to think that I would read this, picture it, and not react to it in some form there, Non. That would be a wasted opportunity there if i didn't.
So lucky for you I did 😘
====
Charmy huffed out a sigh and laid his face against the hardwood floor, throwing down a crayon and lazily watching it roll across the floor until it hit a stack of papers that he had colored, folded, and cut an hour prior to this mental roadblock. The one issue is that he had no more paper, and that also meant that he was back to being bored until something else happened.
He didn't have many options. Going outside to play was definitely out of the question since a huge snowstorm had come inland the day prior and wasn't letting up anytime soon. Which also meant that no clients were going to be calling in for potential cases to them crack for a while.
He had some picture books he could look through and some school-related notebooks he could work on, but he already looked through most of them while he was NOT trying to do any school work in an unofficial snow day, even though Vector and Espio might make him do it later on.
He would go to use the phones to call up one of his friends, like Cream, Ray or Tails, or even that cool guy, Shadow the Hedgehog, if he even bothered to keep a cellphone that is. But they only had the one landline and he knew Espio was using it earlier to talk to some important people on the other end.
That left him just one option left, being stuck bored beyond belief until his brain melted into jello, or whatever happened when you're bored for so long.
He rolled onto his back, staring up at the ceiling until his eyesight went all fuzzy, reminding himself that he needed to blink every so often. After 5 minutes of doing that was beginning to get boring for him.
Charmy's thoughts were interrupted by a familiar voice clearing their voice from the main floor below, followed by the sounds of paper shuffling around. He lifted up his head slightly and remembered that he still had two other people in the office to play with.
Crawling over to the edge of stairwell, he climbed down a few of the steps and peeked over to see Vector at his desk, writing thoroughly on a few sheets of paper while multiple folders covered the rest of the desk, a steaming mug of coffee next to him, he also had radio on behind him that sounded like it was playing music from the old times. Vector told him it was a style of music from the 50s, which probably made the crocodile super old if he remembered that.
Other than Vector, there was no one else here. Espio wasn't in clear sight, though from where Charmy was looking, he was either in the kitchen or near the front entrance, either doing his own paperwork or meditating like he usually does.
That just left Vector as the main target. He definitely knew better than to bother him while he was doing important work stuff, but his thirst for fun was on the line, and he was not going out like that easily.
(Read the rest on Ao3!)
#Vector being called a dinosaur: no reaction#Vector being called old: VENGEANCE WILL BE SERVED#Even though it basically meant the same thing in that context XD#this is what happens when you get a good idea like this at 1 am#you just write out stuff until it becomes a drabble into a fic of its own#that’s how it works fo me sometimes XD#team chaotix#the chaotix#vector the crocodile#charmy bee#espio the chameleon#found family#sonic the hedgehog#sth#asks answered#anonymous

Ok so these designs are cute as hell, the Internet is just mean
I have too many thoughts about a game I still need to watch
#goodbye volcano high#i dont have the money to buy it but god i need to watch a playthrough when i have time it's so interesting to me#like; the theme of 'yeah we're going die but that doesn't mean we can enjoy what time we have left' sounds amazing to me love that#its so funny i was actually watching a review of it that was basically 'this game sucks and here's why'#and then it just started listing off shit like- 'the characters designs are pastel they're nonbinary you die no matter what'#and then my neurons just went off and went '👁️👁️ oh! sounds amazing i want to see more'#fuck yeah pastel nonbinary dinosaurs lets go#well i think its just fang thats nonbinary and then two other trans characters#i saw a cutscene! and it was about the experiences of being an apart of a family as sec-gen immigrant and trans-#and i thought that was cool as hell dont recall ever seeing that in any of thr arts ive seen before (but there's lots of art out there!)#heard it got some glitches tho (havent looked in depth of what those glitches are) hopefully it got patched out#also im so fucking pissed i saw the gator game before i saw this 😮💨 (context; apparently made by people who made a fangame where they#the mc of this game a datable side character and they only have a happy ending if they detransition? which fucking yikes😬)#i saw people say 'oh but they did it empathetically' like how the fuck is taking a canon nb character and making them only happy through#detransitioning empathetic that sounds super fucking shitty and gross#i think a character that detransitions can be done and would be interesting to see- but this just reeks of people being transphobic for real#oh also purple dino has a slug or worm or something apparently! seems cute! just a lil thing#apparently its a rhythm game; listened to some of the songs and it sounded good! sadly i suck at rhythm games#but apparently failing doesn't affect the story? kinda wish it would but honestly better for me lol-#pink one and fang end up dating i believe- from what i saw pink is like- soft spoken artist? dunno if accurate but she's cute#all the characters are cute just look at them!!! awesome#also they have to just continue school like normal before they die and honestly thats so real#also saw people dislike the fact you dont see the characters actual die or the meteor#which is ??? dunno i just think some things are better left implied than shown-#anyways man i keep trying to find neat stuff about the game and all i see is people bitchin about it or praising the shit fan on instead 😔#man if i had two nickles for a time i grew to become obsessed with a media only for loads of people to hate id have two nickles#first nickle is kat elliot she's such a cool character Internet wasn't ready for her#also yes i saw obsessed i can just tell this is something ill go bonkers for#i mean god look how much text is in my tags for this already! and i still need to see the game in it's fullness!#im sure there's other cool shit

My Hot-Take/Controversial Ranking of Doctor Who Seasons (excluding specials bc my special order is really unhinged)
3 > 1 > 10 > 4 > 5 > 8 > 11 > 12 > 9 > 7b > 2 > 6 > 13 = 7a
Disclaimer: I have favorite episodes that come from every single season on this list, including 7a. For example, even though Season 6 is low on the list, the God Complex, Almost People/Rebel Flesh, and Impossible Astronaut are some of my favorite of the show. I do really love the Power of Three. These are based on season arc/average feeling per episode/rewatchability on a subjective level.
#doctor who#listen seasons 1 and three are basically perfect television for me#season 10 is one of the most fun of the show and bill is my second favorite companion and I love the twelve/missy arc#season 4 is full of banger after banger and journey's end slaps it just doesn't quite hit for me personally like seasons 1 3 and 10 do#season 5 has some episodes i don't like (victory of the daleks for example) but the fairytale vibes/beast below/amy's choice/big bang SLAP#Season 8 has some great episodes/good arc but i just really don't vibe with how cruel the Doctor is sometimes/Danny deserved better#Season 11 (other than fucking kerblam) i really enjoy! it has some weak writing in places but i love graham&ryan's arc & the smaller vibes#Season 12 is objectively better than season 11 but has weaker character arcs and some weaker episodes so eh#season 9 has one of the best finales in the show/some fun two-parters (i adore under the lake/before the flood) but the arcs feel off#7b is...fun & i like a lot of the episodes but i don't like the name/day/time of the doctor & it drags it down + clara's not fleshed out#season 2 is so good in places (cybermen 2-parter/school reunion/new earth) but has so many weak episodes & not as much character developmen#season 6...I love some episodes but I DESPISE the pregnancy arc/let's kill hitler/wedding of river song & how little agency Amy & river hav#season 13 is just...FINE. I enjoy some of the side characters (vinder bel karvanista) but the flux itself felt weirdly...boring? no emotion#(Jodie was SO GOOD in this season though btw)#and season 7a...asylum of the daleks dinosaurs on a spaceship & angels take manhattan are on my least favorite episodes list. like bottom 1#and I'm sorry but a town called mercy and power of three can't save that#amy and rory should have left with the god complex/christmas special and popped back like martha did in season 4#i said what i said#wow i really went off in the tags on this one#meta#rankings

Obviously they should take their time with these things but I think it'd be so funny if we got the Nature ancient during October. Give me RoR 2020 discourse 2
#while i'm talking about it i think it'd be fun if the nature ancient was like a dinosaur turtle thing#like one of those ancient crocodiles but with a kind of turtle-y shell#basically it'd be the tank in comparison to wildclaw's speed#basically i just want another bulkier dragon like snappers. i love snappers. give me more snappers#flight rising

I know it's not gonna happen but I love the idea of Adam having Deadpool's self-awareness and reality busting power to just talk shit to the audience.
Like he already does by calling people ugly while staring at the "camera" but it would be so much fun if that was expanded out further.
#rave to the grave (out of character)#Replace Deadpool with Adam and it's basically the same lol#Adam: *shattered wings* All the dinosaurs feared the T-Rex#call me Dickmaster! (Adam)
