I think L gave us a lot of hints/messages about what might be going on post-premiere in that Jimmy F appearance. Let’s note that this was after Papgate, after his and N’s social media posts in the fallout period, and after Milan if I am remember correctly? The more I think about it the more I think his team crafted the content we saw to reset his public image, explain some things, and encourage the audience to give him some grace. It was damage control/positive PR/but also some explanations for what we are seeing.

First off, he came off relaxed and confident, a big contrast from how stressed he looked when he had been papped. I think they were also trying to portray him as a friendly and relatable regular guy who had suddenly been thrust into fame as a heartthrob and romantic lead.

Him running from the carriage scene music/talking about how he is not used to the level of fame and exposure and recognition that has come with the success of the show (barber story, needing security in Brazil).

The reference to JB passing down the guide that was called “How to fall in love in front of 82 million people” - more messaging that it is difficult to have that level of scrutiny and specifically when playing a romantic lead when you have insane chemistry with your costar.

The romantic lines, read B-ton style (these are so L/N coded and reference things L or N have brought up in interviews, with the exception of “East Peasy Lemon Squeezy.) We’ve got:

Espresso lyrics - song with significance to the ship, also what L was listening to getting ready for the London premiere, Honeybee, come get that pollen lyrics

“Penelope, we were on a break!” -this is the biggest hint right here of why L was papped/appears in a relationship with another woman after we have seen his and N’s chemistry jump off the screen for 6 months and also in the show itself. THEY (N/L) WERE ON A BREAK. I don’t think he wanted to be on a break, but they were, and I think they’re now on another one while he tries to get his affairs in order. And note that he says “Penelope,” not Rachel, which would be the accurate pop culture quote. Which doesn’t really make sense because he and P are never on a break during the show unless you count the time she stops writing to him and he goes off the rails. Penelope is code for N. Also he is referencing the R/R relationship/timing issues again.

Then the Barbie quote. I think this somewhat addresses him being attached to a strong beautiful powerful woman (LWD or N, take your pick) and that dynamic of potentially being overshadowed and having to find your own self worth in order to handle it . I don’t think that last part about being her Ken was scripted (JF even gives him a wtf look and then it gets cut when it airs), but he made it clear he is happy being her Ken. He basically claims his ass as hers on National TV without meaning to.

I think the interview didn’t have purposeful mention of N for a reason, he was trying to emphasize his role as a B-bro and an actor and romantic lead in his own right, and connect him to the other male leads, and the clip they chose showed that.

He then follows up with a social media post confirming a late night/non-work/non PR beach walk with N and said security guards. I mean… that was a date, and for him to post that in the face of everyone saying he had hard-launched A and he and N were “all PR” is crazy. They also have to be aware of all of the Brazil reports and speculation.

I think the messaging was: This is level of fame and exposure is new, he’s figuring it out, give him a break. Also, everything is okay between N&L so don’t worry, there may be reasons for why what we are seeing doesn’t make sense but they are figuring it out between them.

Would the general audience pick up on all of that? No, but the hardcore fans would so they layered it all in there. Maybe his PR team isn’t that dumb afterall?

I know there’s speculation N was there- I don’t know if she was but her immediate like definitely showed support and that they are still a team. Wouldn’t surprise me if she had a hand in some of that strategy.

I think this is the first in depth analysis I have ever seen on the JF appearance that I mostly agree with.

Thanks for sharing 💜🥃

i feel like out of anyone lando is the only one carlos truly is okay with dating hsi sister

I can understand why you would think so. Let me present to you some reasons why non of the drivers would be suitable/favourite boyfriends for Amira. (all are just Carlos opinions)

Reasons:

Charles:

even tho he has a good heart, he is a walking red flag

he already had a lot of girlfriends

after the break up with Charlotte, he already had Alex as his new girlfriend after a few weeks

he will never leave Ferrari, which is kind of toxic

could manipulate his sister with his cute dog

he still has his Ferrari seat

they are friend and team-mates

and he has this romance thing with Max ???

Max:

he has the nickname "Mad Max" for a reason

has two cats, so he could turn his sister into a cat person

and Carlos doesn't really like cats

Max is sometimes really arrogant

and he grew up in this toxic environment (which Carlos knows is not his fault)

he just doesn't want his sister to have Jos Verstappen as father in law

Carlos also doesn't like the dutch anthem

Lewis:

that man already took his seat and now wants his sister

absolutely not!

what else does he want, his lungs?

Lewis seems to be really focused on racing, so wouldn't have the time to spend time with Amira

he's also older than her

would properly dress his sister in clothes he chose

but main problem: HE STOLE HIS SEAT

Oscar:

Oscar stole Lando from him

and he drivers really recklessly (Carlos opinion)

he crashed to often with him

Oscar also said he should stop whining, which he does NOT do (I'm just saying Miami 2024)

he lives in Australia, which would mean his sister has to live at the end of the world

he's just a baby himself and is too young to be in a relationship

Pierre:

Just no

And here are some reasons why Lando wouldn't be the favourite/suitable boyfriend:

if they would break up, he can't be friends with Lando anymore

he will obviously take Amiras side

Lando also had this whole Raya scandal thing

his last girlfriend received a lot of hate (which is not Landos fault)

it just means that LN4 fans are toxic af

and he doesn't want this for his little sister

also, Lando would break the "Bro-Code"

sometimes Lando is as arrogant as Max

and he touches his sister to often in front of him

he also doesn't speak Spanish

All in all, his sister will always be to good for any man! I mean, look at her. She's Barbie and they are just Ken.

Earth realm boys dating a popstar???? 👀👀👀👀

“Send me ideas guys” *proceeds to hit brain block* I didn’t know if you wanted the Lin Kuei Bros or Syzoth involved but imma add this little rule/guideline(?) so I don’t throw myself down the stairs. So the Earthrealm Boys will be Johnny, Kenshi, Kung Lao, Raiden and Liu Kang. Lin Kuei Bros are Bi-Han, Kuai Liang and Tomas. You can also ask for specific characters but IMMA LET YALL KNOW RIGHT NOW y’all have a limit of FIVE people per post or I’m sleeping in traffic.

Johnny Cage

If you think Johnny Cage is anything other than excited, you're wrong.

There's no way he doesn't enjoy dating a pop star.

He'd tell you how great your names sound together. Johnny Cage the movie star and you the pop star.

He's probably asked you if your songs can be in his movies.

I think he'd be extremely supportive. Sometimes a little overbearing. Some people might enjoy him wanting to come to every show, while some people may say “dude, calm down”.

Your ringtone on his phone is one of your songs for sure

He also asks for some of your merch for free since ya know, debt 😀

If there's a dance that goes along with it, I can definitely see him learning it and showing you how good (bad) he is

Please let him be in your music videos. He's on his knees begging

He has such a huge ego, he'd probably say something like “you can't possibly turn down an A lister like me”

He's so President of your fanclub

He also posts exclusives of you on his social media

This may sound selfish but he's hoping your popularity will increase his. When we meet him, his fame is dying out so he's hoping being seen with you will remind people he exists

Don't get it misconstrued though. He adores you. He just can't help but have these thoughts

Probably makes you promise to dedicate a song to him too. Realistically he wants an album but he'll take whatever

He's so Ken coded to me and remember, Ken only has a great day if Barbie looks at him. You're his Barbie, regardless of gender

Kenshi Takahashi

Considering the fact that he's on the run from the Yakuza, uhhhh he's not the happiest

Is he proud? Yeah. But dating him puts a huge target on your back. Kenshi can hide. You, as a popstar, can't do that. You're always in the spotlight. And since the Yakuza got connections, they'd find out somehow.

He'd encourage you to take a break until things cool over. Only problem is he doesn't know when that'd be, and the music industry is competitive. You don't have time to be on a break. People could forget about you.

Under any other circumstance, he'd be happy for you. Not many people can make it in the music industry. There are tons of people who have big plans but settle for less.

In any other circumstance he'd listen to your songs, spread the word about your concerts, buy your merch cause he's not in debt, even attend a few concerts.

Now though, he's uptight and worried. Every concert you have he's worried will be your last. Any fan meet you have he's worried will end in death.

I honestly think he'd try to actively avoid anything that has to do with your career. It's a constant reminder that you're doing the exact opposite of what he's asking you to and you're putting yourself in danger. This could possibly cause a lot of arguments since he could come off as controlling when in reality he's worried and trying to be cautious

He's trying to avoid anything to do with your career but every playlist he has has your songs sprinkled throughout them

Overall he's proud of you but life has him pretty uptight. He'll be his normal self once he restores his clan.

Kung Lao

This cocky little shit is so hype his partner is famous

I can see him talking about your music with others like “my partner? They make music. You probably know them. I don't know yours though cause they're unknown. How are y'all paying the bills?”

You tell him not to do that but he continues anyway. Everyone had to know how awesome you were compared to them

Idk why I have this scene in my head of him buying your concert tickets to sell it again but make it more expensive. I legit don't know why but I couldn't ignore it.

Kung Lao has such a huge ego and your success does not help that. In fact, it makes it worse

How many people can say they're dating a popstar? Or anyone famous for that matter?

I can see him “helping” with lyrics but the shit he tries to add is dog shit so you do not add it, which he does not get.

“I have an ear for music” “An ear. Not a talent”

Starts a fanclub and forces Raiden to be involved

You'd think he's the popstar with how much pride he has when it comes to your career

Like Kenshi, he has a whole playlist dedicated to you and your songs are sprinkled throughout his other playlists

If you ask for his honest opinion on a song, he's gonna give you his honest opinion so be prepared. It's like asking a kid if a jacket makes you look fat.

He doesn't mean to be malicious. He just can't have you releasing bad shit. His approach just isn't the best but it's all with love

“What do you think about Bubblegum?” “The chorus isn't catchy at all if I'm being honest. You've definitely made better”

He'd help though by saying what he liked from other songs and it'd steer you in the right direction

Your career? No. Y'ALL career. UterUS type shit

In all seriousness, he's very happy that out of all the celebrities you could be with, you chose a non celebrity like him.

Raiden

Honestly I don't think anyone would even know you're dating. He's just too shy.

With Johnny, he's famous and has no shame so that's how people know you're together. The Yakuza is out here so that's how they know about you and Kenshi. Kung Lao is Kung Lao, idk how else to explain it. With Raiden though, I don't think he'd want your fans to know you're dating.

He's shy and also values privacy and you respect that. Your fans know you're dating someone just not who.

He probably has a second account he uses to stay up to date with fan discourse

Likes every edit of you and shows you them.

“Were you looking these up?” “I… don't know what you could possibly mean”

I don't think he's a big concert person. I don't know why. At least not a huge, no personal space type of concert. So I think he'd do other things to support like using that second account to promote your activities, reposting edits, and buying your stuff.

Knowing his luck, that second account for privacy and being sneaky would end up getting fans attention. He'd become the main update page everyone goes to. Guess he wasn't sneaky enough

Probably asks you to sing to him when it's quiet

Has bought a poster of you and forgot to take it down when you came over

“Kung Lao put that up” “Mhm, sure”

He has two hats. His normal hat and a hat that has stickers of you on it. Kung Lao or Johnny probably did it to tease him but he kept it anyway

Dedicate a song to him and watch how flustered he gets. He'd be so honored

If you had an MV and there was a love interest in it, he wouldn't wanna be jealous but it'd happen.

Everytime he sees you perform or hears you, he falls deeper in love. Like Kung Lao, he's very happy you picked him to be your love and muse

Liu Kang

He probably saw this coming based on your life in the past timeline

Knowing how the past timelines were though, your life was probably chaotic and your music career was probably disturbed by the constant threats

Seeing you just having fun and making music in this timeline would make him extremely happy and proud of himself for creating such a peaceful timeline (at first)

Liu Kang has glowing eyes so there's a chance concerts aren't happening, but I think he'd still stream your music like everyone else

Would probably try to keep you far away from any disturbances. When he takes his champions to Outworld, he makes up a lie. He doesn't want what you're passionate about disturbed at all

Supportive in the sense that he's always going to say “yes” to whatever ideas you have. A breakup song? Great idea. A fun party song? Awesome. A fan meet? Sounds fun.

He genuinely just wants you happy this time and music makes you happy.

You could talk him into using his fire as some background effect as long as others won't see

He talks you into doing smaller performances at Madam Bo's. You're spying on Raiden and Kung Lao without even knowing

Whenever you find out about the shit storm going on, he does not want you involved and will say so. He wants you to focus on your passion and let him take care of it. Whether you do or not is up to you

After all that though you'd probably end up making music for Johnny's movie about shit that happened. He doesn't disapprove but thinks you can do better than make a soundtrack for Johnny 'Big Mouth’ Cage

Secret fanboy. Forced to act all serious all the time but he's mumbling your lyrics under his breath, even if it's super cutesy.

He's just so happy for you. I know I keep repeating it but you probably DIED in the past timeline or some shit so seeing you happy and just living? It shows his efforts for peace paid off.

I usually say smth after but idk what to say. I wanna start art commissions so bad but half bodies are kicking my ass. I’m finna start tweaking fr

Can I be your boyfriend for Halloween?

"Please, tell me that you're as lame as I thought you were and you haven't decided on a costume yet."

There's no need to shout since Derek would hear him from whichever part of the loft he is presently using to hide from the pack and society in general. Usually, the man can be found in the open living room slash bedroom area doing pushups or reading romance novels that he immediately gets rid of as soon as someone else appears, but this time, Stiles stumbles upon him in the kitchen. He's still somewhat flabbergasted by seeing Derek do something as mundane as cooking, so he spends some time in the doorway gawking at the domestic imagery, as well as taking advantage of having Derek's backside turned towards him. He's shameless, so what?

Derek catches him staring but doesn't stop his dinner preparations. He lifts an eyebrow at Stiles over his shoulder, and Stiles sighs, knowing from past experiences what Derek wants to hear: why, what, how am I involved?

"I was planning to do matching costumes with Scott but he violated the bro code and ditched me."

Derek's lips quirk, alongside his eyebrows, into a "What did you expect?" look.

"Yeah, I should have seen it coming, but I thought Lydia didn't like those... couple-y things, ya know."

Derek smiles, small and amused, and Stiles has to concede his point. Lydia does like couple-y things if she can do them with Scott.

"Anyway, now I have no means to bring my awesome vision to life, unless..." Stiles trails off, eyes wide and lashes fluttering in a way that Lydia once described as 'cute'.

Malia called it 'pathetic', but whatever. It worked on her, too.

Derek puts the baking pan into the pre-heated oven before turning around with the characteristic arm fold over his chest that makes his biceps look huge. Perfect.

"What's the idea?"

Stiles's eyelashes quit their rapid fanning in favour of staring at the man. "Wait, you would seriously do it?"

"I wasn't planning to dress up for Lydia's party," Derek explains, "But she told me it was mandatory." And he doesn't really pout, but he does look like those dogs who simply abhor bathing and glare at you when you try to wash them like you're admitting them to the shelter.

Stiles is pretty sure Derek wouldn't appreciate it if he cooed at him right now. So he settles on a simple "huh."

Then he realizes that Lydia might have just secured a costume partner for him, and he does a mini fistbump in celebration of his serendipity.

"So you're in?"

Derek rolls his eyes, but Stiles can already see him cracking. "Tell me the idea and I'll decide."

Stiles grins and dives into outlining his epic idea.

"I'm so happy for you, guys!"

Stiles whirls around to come face to face with a beaming Kira in a pink sweater and a blonde wig, plus her dark shadow that is Malia beside her.

"Um, thanks?" He says, sipping leisurely from his cup of Lydia's punch.

"Who made the first move?"

Kira's eyes are twinkling with excitement, and Stiles wishes he could return it but he has no idea what the kitsune is talking about. He frowns, light and questioning, and Kira's smile falters at once.

"You and Derek are together, right?"

Stiles nearly dunks his drink on himself as he flails to slap his hand over Kira's mouth while the other discards his cup on the counter. A cursory look around assures him that Derek isn't in earshot, and only then does he ease his hand off Kira's stunned face.

"Nope, they aren't," Malia concludes, not even considerate enough to lower her voice, "Should have known they would be the type of idiots to come to a party in a couple's costume and still not get a clue."

"It's not a couple's costume," Stiles insists because it's really not.

"But you came together," Kira argues, visibly baffled, "And everyone is paired up here."

Stiles carries his gaze across the room and winces.

Mason and Corey are on the couch, feeding each other candy and portraying different Kens from the Barbie movie, while Liam and Theo - in Spiderman and Deadpool costumes respectively - argue about which formative Halloween movies Theo hasn't seen yet and if they can sneak into Lydia's bedroom to watch it without getting mauled. Erica and Boyd - dressed as Kara and Luther from one of Erica's favourite video games - are in a fierce UNO fight against Allison, who has transformed into a ladybug-themed heroine with a yoyo attached to her belt, and Isaac, who has a black full body suit stretching over his body with floppy cat ears to top it off. In a far-away corner, Lydia is teaching Scott how to do a dance routine for Tiktok so she can brag about their Ember and Wade costumes (and her boyfriend) to all her followers.

"Okay, I know how this looks..." Stiles turns back to the pair with raised palms.

"Sus," Malia cuts in with a deadpan expression, and it's the first time Stiles thinks that Kira might be a bad influence on her.

"It's not! I just had this amazing idea for Scott and me, okay? Then my best friend bailed on me, which is okay, 'cause Derek is more appreciative of my genius anyway."

"But he came dressed as himself," Malia points out and even mimics the leather jacket that the other man has put on for the party.

"No, he's Brand!" Stiles groans in frustration, but no clarity descends upon the two girls. "From the Tarot Sequence book series?"

"Sorry, haven't read it," Kira grimaces apologetically. "What is it about?"

"Okay, so the whole book is centred around these two guys who are Companions," Stiles starts his prepared rant, "I'm Rune, the scion who uses magic to kick ass, and Derek is Brand, his companion who's trained to be, like, Rune's personal bodyguard. Their relationship is way more, though, 'cause they are more like inseparable best friends, or platonic soulmates, I guess. They trust each other more than anyone and they would die for each other, and Rune sometimes runs headfirst into trouble, and Brand is always there growling about it but he's just really scared that something will happen to Rune. And they banter a lot and tease each other, but they know the other more than anyone else and there's nothing greater than their love for each other."

Stiles is a little bit out of breath by the end of it, his big earnest eyes alternating between the two silent girls who, sadly, don't seem to share his enthusiasm.

"And that's you and Derek?" Malia finally asks, after a pause.

Stiles nearly chokes on his spit. "I mean, yeah, we're dressed as them. But it's just a costume - one I was planning to do with Scott."

"Yeah, I'm just filling in for him."

Stiles freezes at the familiar deep timbre behind him and sees from the corner of his eyes as Derek grabs his abandoned cup and downs the liquid inside it in one gulp. His smile, afterwards, lacks its usual shine.

"That's not-"

"We don't have that kind of bond. Right, Stiles?"

Stiles's mouth feels too dry, suddenly. Kira and Malia excuse themselves (well, Kira drags a nosy Malia away) and Stiles stands there without an idea of how to get himself out of the hole that he's dug under his feet. Derek eventually gets bored of the fish imitation and decides to walk away with a roll of his eyes.

It wasn't even fond! Derek's eye rolls are always fond when they are aimed at Stiles.

He jolts into action with a bit of delay and weaves through the lounging couples with a fast beating heart. Derek's sitting on the porch swing outside and doesn't push him off when Stiles joins him and starts stealing glances at the other man. Derek's stubbornly looking ahead and avoiding eye contact, so Stiles reckons that it's all or nothing now. Accidentally revealing his more-than-friendship feelings will be worth it, if it means Derek will know how important he truly is.

"You're not just a substitute," Stiles begins with the easiest truth, knowing that Derek is most likely listening to his heartbeat.

"It's okay, Stiles," Derek sighs, still looking away, "I know that you and Scott have something special. You're best friends, brothers even. And I'm just..."

"You're amazing," Stiles finishes, not a single trip in his heartbeat.

That finally gets Derek to look at him. His eyes are wide, cautious, and so, so vulnerable. Stiles can't imagine stopping now.

"You're incredibly kind and compassionate. Very smart, too, even though you think no one else notices. You have this dry sense of humour that makes me laugh even when I feel like I can't, and you're so fucking strong. The strongest person I know."

Derek opens his mouth and then promptly closes it. There's a light dust of pink over his carefully trimmed beard that Stiles can't look away from.

"I don't need you to be Scott," Stiles tells him with a smile that's probably too affectionate to pass off as friendly but he doesn't care, to be honest, "I need you to be you."

The surprise makes Derek's lips part enough to give a tiny peek of his bunny teeth, and Stiles thinks it's the most adorable sight right until Derek smiles back at him. "I'm not a very good Brand, am I?"

Stiles takes a huge, encouraging breath.

"I think you'd make a good Addam."

There's a glint in Derek's eyes, a different, burning one, and Stiles knows. He knows Derek understands what he's implying and the other man is not running away in disgust. No, Derek is actually moving closer, his eyes enticingly green, and Stiles leans forward as his eyelids fall shut on instinct. They meet in the middle in a hesitant kiss, and Stiles pinches himself just to make sure it's real.

"You read the books?" Stiles grins once they part, unable to contain his giddiness. It's been three days since he's told Derek about them.

"You were very passionate," Derek mumbles as an explanation, his blush turning a deeper shade of red. It's utterly precious.

"Sap," Stiles accuses light-heartedly, but he can't seem to stop smiling.

Derek takes his hand then, kisses the back of it, and flashes a coy smile up at Stiles. It makes the younger man's blood pump faster in his veins.

"Only for you, Hero."

(Happy Halloween!)

since i like to project onto people (and because I just saw the barbie movie and it was fantastic)--

spider-kids doll collecting headcanons post time (brands, do they play with them, and other stuff)

miles: bratz and barbie collector, but likes Bratz the best. probably also has a dreamhouse that his dolls all live in. does actually play with his dolls sometimes and makes up insane/unhinged stories to cope with being spiderman. Just to distract. stand-in for Dok Ock (redressed Girlz Really Rock Cloe) gets her shit clocked a LOTTTTTTTTT by Tokyo a Go Go Sasha. He's sort of interested in doll repainting, but worries a bit abt wrecking the doll permanently. Esp with his Bratz collection, he almost had to sell a kidney for TAGG Sasha. He's been practicing with the cheap ten dollar Barbies you can buy in Wal-Mart, but he still feels kinda bad. Ganke keeps good watch over his school collection when he has to go be Spider-Man tho. They have an Understanding- Miles watches the Funko Pops when Ganke is at coding conventions, and Ganke watches the dawls when Miles has to fight Green Goblin.

gwen: barbie and monster high collector. just starting out so the collection's not really that big. however, she has all the movies torrented on her computer and watches them when she can't fall asleep. DEFINETELY plays with her dolls too, like has an entire running soap opera going with them that's getting more and more complicated-- toralei is beach ken's bastard daughter that is trying to find the gold that creepover draculaura hid with the help of I Can Be A Mars Explorer barbie, and it only gets weirder from there. Her dad is baffled and confused by it, but she doesn't actually mind (in fact it might be the point). also, a little while after she restarted active collecting, miles gets a text at two am apologizing profusely for opening that collectible because her dad came in to clean her room and took Sweet 1600 Draculaura out of the box "as a treat" and THE TIES AREN'T GOING BACK IN

hobie: refuses to participate in the toxic consumerist nature that this hobby promotes while toy companies dump toxins into the air and kill our crops, while working in tandem with the horrifically abusive beauty industry to promote disgustingly unhealthy body standards to AFAB individuals. does hit the locally owned thrift store on occasion. does sleep with what he has all piled in his sleeping bag like a lil burrito. does carry his favorite around with him in his guitar case. as a little treat. doesn't discriminate with brands, his current favorite is a knockoff of monster high that nobody but him treasures. He jumpscares Miguel with her half zombie-fied face every five seconds and has her play peek-a-boo with Mayday. Peter B finds it funny, Miguel does not lol

pavitr: collects exclusively old and really obscure lines that nobody has ever heard of. Like he can give you a minute description of a random brand that you've never even heard of that lasted for like five minutes in the nineties before flaming out into the discount stores and then pull out their nib AND oob versions. all while saying "oh yeah, im not really into collecting that stuff. it takes up so much space, bro." He's still searching for one but pretends he isn't. also plays with them, along with Gayatri, and their stories are just the cutest sweetest things ever. like they're still batshit insane, don't get me wrong, the climaxes are always massive dance offs that involve the whole collection. but it always ends with their two dolls (Mystikats Azra for Gayatri and Tattoo Divas Shary for Pav) riding off into the sunset on one of the Struts dolls.

miles g (oh yeah that's right you though he'd be getting out of this): also bratz and barbie, and also likes Bratz the best. Since he has (some) Prowler Bux money's (mostly) not an issue. (Please don't ask him abt the noises he made when the Felicia repro was confirmed). He also has a Dreamhouse where they live, however it's shoved into his closet and if you ask him abt it, he will deny it. His stories are even more unhinged and insane then Miles, and usually involve running away from cops (redressed Wild Life Safari Cloe) who are trying to interfere with the hero's (the new pretty n punk sasha's) vigilante business. Which is why Hobie likes to join him a lot. Also into doll repainting, but actually even less confident then Miles-- he can do an amazing Bratz lip but the eyes? Forget it. And rn they're too expensive to buy en masse, so..... hooray :)

(none of them, except for hobie, let mayday play with their dolls. hobie does it because he can fix their hair later and also he doesn't believe in property. the others are too spooked. except for maybe miles, he gives her the barbies he's transformed into Weird Barbies. Peter B finds it so cute he could scream, and Miguel agrees. He never SHOWS it but he agrees.)

TL;DR: they are all very autistic and like to play with their dollies, the end.

#across the spider verse #miles morales #gwen stacy #hobie brown #pavitr prabhakar #there's so many inside jokes here and stuff for doll collectors #i have spent way too much time on dolltwt and dollblr #anyway they all get together and play doll house and it's so bizarre #miguel hates every single second that they spend in HQ's library screaming #but peter b makes him tolerate it because “cmon man they're kids and having fun!”#idk i just like the idea of the kids coping with being spiderman/the prowler via elaborate bizarre doll stories #i think its very cool

Link Tank: First Look at the Campaign for Halo Infinite

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

We finally have some looks at the highly anticipated video game Halo Infinite’s campaign, and it looks very promising.

“Halo Infinite picks up after the events of Halo 5 and sees Master Chief trying to figure out why Cortana, his longtime AI partner, went rogue and tried to destroy humanity. He’s seeking another AI, code-named ‘The Weapon,’ who was allegedly designed as a countermeasure to Cortana. The Banished—a splinter faction of Chief’s enemies-turned-allies the Covenant—is in his way.”
