INFO POST (SLIGHT WIP. Banner's a WIP too.)

Cyber Spooky Month is a silly Cyber-punkified AU with extra lore attached! This blog will consist of comics, fanart (probably going to be mostly made by me lol) and of course, asks for these silly little guys! Lore will be established through some asks and art as this goes on. All asks must be SFW to be answered. Some ships are yet to be decided but there is some Ratmeat in this AU.

yk i’ve talked about spooky month on here before,,once I think showcasing my first gadgetini art of the year (or since 2022)

it’s actually the webseries that had me reminded of gatg from it having a duo I felt were similar 2 the main robo-twins

THE THIEVES 💪💪

These guys have been my favorite since 2020, and it wasn’t until the beginning of the year where I felt I was improving on both my art & writing skills where I’d interfere without feeling i’m mischaracterizing the 2

(I actually uploaded some of my recent SM thief stuff 2 tumblr one time,,,buut that was before I decided to restart & delete the 5 year old blog entirety)

(cuz my old stuff from them,,,additionally from 2021 & 2022 where I had a really bad “edgy” phase was NOT good i’ll say that)

most of the headcanons I have written for them are archived somewhere in my now fidget-focused rp account, but I can try & paraphrase most of what I have to present other than roleplay

—

Barton “Barry” Gómez (Fat Thief), and Eugene “Euan” Gómez (Thin Thief) are the duo thieves of the neighborhood; Barry being 32 and Eugene being 34. They’re both brothers, close ones at that. Even with the 2 year difference it’s always been as if they were the closest friends they could have.

They both were the previous son’s of Richard, 20 years before Roy came along (more than likely in his 50’s now). Richard had another partner before Carmen, but they never got along as well as he hoped..he took it upon himself to take care of both of the boys whenever him & his old girlfriend partner. Barton doesn’t remember much of his mother besides playing with her whenever he was young; Euan only remembers her consistent fighting with Richard most of the time now.

The thieves are unaware of Richard’s new life, having both moving out for collage (and independency mostly) at that early adult age (18/20 respectively for the both of them) they’re both been they’re only source of family sense, being roomies for as long as they can remember with each house/area they move/hide into. The only thing that is known is that Richard’s been having a better life with his new wife..additionally with them not knowing it’s Carmen (more than likely they’ve tried robbing her before) AND not knowing that makes them related to some kid named “Roy” in some way.

It was Eugene who first got into the habit of thievery; with him thinking it would be good financial help for the 2 of them, and just liking the thrill in general. With Barry being the youngest, he ended up picking up that habit alongside him. With how long they’ve been doing it around the neighborhood, it was surprising to hear them both getting relatively popular under local news reports..only having full realization after someone deliberately order a heist for them to hit off. AKA: the RUMORED CULT hiring them to rummage through the attic of a house they’ve already failed stealing from. They already had good enough of a grip of how dangerous the group could be; given how they escaped jail in the first place with help from famous Bob Velseb; the reanimated cannibal that was ALIVE because of the cult (they didn’t have that great of a relationship with him in-and-out of the prison..) Barry was more unsure on the deal, not wanting to be wrapped deep under more garbage for the future. Eugene? They were paying good, he couldn’t let go of that offer (it would’ve payed off they’re apartment bills🎉🎉) Alongside the duo they were hired with the Candydealer, him acting more as some information giver-mentor hybrid for the two. Trying to keep them in order from fear or hesitation so they don’t “run out of luck”

Barton is a Gay man, & Euan is Bisexual as well btw 🫡🫡

ADDITIONALLY THEYRE BOTH MEXICAN WHICH MAKES RICHARD MEXICAN WHICH MAKES ROY MIXED HEHEJAHAHAHA I LOVE SELF INDULGENT HEADCANONS 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽

we can laugh at ronan for being a hardcore alice in wonderland stan all day (and i will) BUT ronan’s love for alice in wonderland takes on a whole new meaning when you realize all the parallels between ronan’s life/childhood as a dreamer and the story. alice in wonderland is about a little girl who falls asleep and has this wild, dangerous, often very life-like dream. and just when you think alice is going to die (beheaded by things that exist in her head) she wakes up. in this story ronan IS alice. one of the lines that really drives home this point is when alice says i don’t know who in the world i am. ronans never-ending question has been “what the hell am i?” which is eerily similar to alice. like alice, ronan has felt out of control because of his dreaming — he is existing in a world where the rules don’t seem to matter, where there is nobody to show him the ropes because at the end of the day, it’s all in his head (until it isn’t). alice in wonderland, to ronan, probably felt like confirmation that all the scary things can stay in your head, that at the end of the day you’ll wake up and know yourself again.

Title: . . .  But Verify WC: 900

“I don’t really enjoy being proved right.” —Stan Holliwell, Den of Thieves (2 x 21)

Tom Demming is not a dirty cop. This is a thing she knows. Now she knows it. Because she has damned near dislocated his shoulder getting to know it, and at least one of his thumbs may never be the same, because it was something she needed to know. But she does know now: Tom Demming is not a dirty cop. 

And it’s fine. Her somewhat violent path to enlightenment is absolutely fine. He is laughing about it. They are laughing about the fact that she can and will go from low-key flirting to assuming that he is not only a dirty cop, but a probable torturer an murderer in the time it takes the average Manhattan day trader to order his third quadruple-shot espresso before sun-up. They’re chuckling shoulder-to-shoulder about the complete lack of daylight between her flirting and enhanced interrogation. 

It’s more than fine, it’s nice, isn’t it? Tom Demming, Squeaky Clean Cop, does not take it personally that his torture-free, non-murderer status was something she needed to know—that she needed to establish through evidence. And why would he? Dirty or Clean, he is a cop, and he understands that cops do not have the luxury of being Monica Finches or Carol Thorntons, with their clear, steady gazes and their unwavering belief in the goodness of their men. Cops understand that trust is another word for foolishness, and it’s nice that Demming—a good cop—gets it. 

Except that neither Monica Finch nor Carol Thornton turned out to be foolish, exactly. Paul Finch seems to have been practically cryptozoological: the rare con who actually went straight. More than that, Paul Finch seems to have been the rare human who felt a sense of debt so deeply, he’d risk his marriage, his freedom, and in the end, his life to repay the man who’d once cut his kid brother a break. 

And Ike Thornton . . . well, it’s somehow not much consolation that her Torturer and Murderer Until Proven Otherwise take wasn’t just hers alone. It’s not much consolation that it was based on legitimate evidence, entirely sound logic, and Cop Sense with a proven track record. How can it be consolation when Esposito’s faith was never shaken? More importantly, how can she let herself off the hook that way when it was Esposito’s unwavering belief that had them digging deeper, exposing Holliwell, bagging Victor Racine? 

But, still, it’s fine, right? Esposito, as good a cop as they make them. would never hold it against her. And Demming, with his easy laugh and slightly gawky shoulder bump is not holding any grudges, and that can’t be entirely attributable to the mood boost he must be getting from going from New Guy to Guy Who Helped Bag Victor Racine before the ink on his transfer papers is dry. 

The thought stiffens her spine. She goes from easy laughter to avoiding eye contact—the bad kind, not the low-key flirty kind—in seconds. Demming doesn’t really notice. Or if he does, he soldiers on. Maybe he writes it off to one of ten thousand awkward moments that come with the early stages of the low-key flirtation. 

But the cynical idea that he’s given her a free pass on the Dirty Cop thing because he’s already gotten something out of their paths crossing has her in its clutches in more ways than one. She hates the thought on its own merits. She hates that it occurred to her, even in passing. It’s beyond healthy Cop Sense, isn’t it? It’s not a newsflash that she has trust issues—that she has had trust issues since before they let her put on the badge. But this verges on paranoid, and with Demming’s easy grin flashing her way as he makes more than passable small talk just so that he can keep hanging around, she wonders not at all metaphorically what her damage is. 

But she’s not so consumed with that eternal question that she’s unaware that she genuinely  kind of wonders if it’s true. She kind of wonders if he really “likes the weird ones,” or he heard the clipped version of her last name when she answered her phone at the gym and jumped on the case so he could take another crack at “steadying her bag.” Worse still, she genuinely wonders if really had any interest in that, or if he’d simply spotted an opportunity to connect a fairly rinky dink robbery to a buzz-worthy homicide-with-a-side-of-torture, even if he lucked into the Victor Racine long game. She wonders exactly how much of Tom Demming’s story to believe, and she hates every single one of those thoughts. 

She hears the voice of Richard Castle in her head. Demming is still talking. He’s still clearly doing the math on the timing of the next socially acceptable shoulder bump, and she is wondering about his New Yorker subscription, his potential double life as a yoga studio creeper, and what he’s compensating for with his underprivileged kids basketball angle. 

She is gritting her teeth when she should be flashing a smile. She is white-knuckling the edge of the table when she should be doing her own shoulder-bump math. She is wondering what she really knows about Tom Demming and she’s internally cursing Richard Castle’s name. 

It is the very opposite of consolation that she’s not at all alone in her trust issues. She wasn’t looking for company. 

A/N: I guess my "schtick" for this series is lame apologies about the long time between stories; for a variety of reasons, I have been walking outdoors far more than dreadmilling. I need to get back to dreadmilling. I will do my best to get into some kind of a groove here. In the mean time, thank you to those of you who read.

Controversial opinion, especially for any Jason Todd fans out there (I'm one of them), but I completely understand why the fans in, the 80' I think, voted to kill him off. Hear me out, okay?

Jason was at first a literal Dick Grayson copy, was legit given his backstory and personality with the name being the only change. And for a while that was all they knew about and, rightfully so, hated about him. Now I'm not sure whether he was given the whole Alley kid who tried to steal Batman's tire story before or after his death but either way, in those fans' minds, Jason Todd was just a boring replica of Dick Grayson and no one liked him. If I was alive and a fan back then, I honestly would have done the same thing.

WHICH IS WHY I HAVE SUCH A HUGE PROBLEM WITH THE WRITERS DOING TO JASON THE EXACT SAME THING THAT GOT HIM KILLED OFF BEFORE!!!

Jason immediately after getting brought back to life was a villain. He wasn't misguided, he wasn't an antihero, my man was a Villain with a capital V. He didn't protect workings girls or children from any drugs or anything, he just made one off hand comment to a guy not to sell to kids and that's it. One of his only interactions with any prostitutes is to mock her for her past and decisions that led to her becoming one. Bruce did not abuse him or attack him unfairly. Jason had not only tried to kill Joker or other horrible villains, he killed anyone whether they were rapists, or robbers, or petty fucking thieves and he didn't do it for justice or whatever the fuck but because he was angry and taking it out on everyone he could get his hands on. He stopped Batman from going after Nightwing after Bludhaven blew up with him in it. He blew up a school. He beat up Tim in his little Robin panties and was a fucking villain.

I love Jason. But I love him as the messed up asshole he is. Not as some misguided wittle antihero. Which is why I despise the fact that the fandom latched onto the completely inaccurate version of him, because the writers of DC had started writing him the way the fandom wanted and he is now irreversibly ruined. Aside from the already mentioned stuff, they made him into a copy of Dick Grayson (for the second fucking time) and Helena Bertinelli.

Helena is the one protecting women and children, the antihero that often uses violent force. She's the one with the reluctant sibling relationship with Tim. Jason was not Tim's Robin by the way, Dick was. Tim does not like Jason one fucking bit and spends most of their forced interactions roasting him so bad he has to buy burn salves. Also her personality was taken and given to Jason in some ways too, like her manner of speech and stuff, but I'm willing to let that slide as accidental.

From Dick Grayson, they mostly took his relationships, romantic and platonic. Jason slept with Barbara and Kori both, which aside from just being dumb as hell is also weird and creepy because Jason is six years younger than them at least and they knew him as a fourteen year old when they were at least twenty, and they would never date someone so much younger than them, they aren't fucking creeps. Then they took Starfire and Arsenal and made them forget their own lives to join Jason's little antihero team (neither of them are antiheroes what the fuck) and act like the sun shines out of Jason's ass and he's their leader or some shit when they would never follow him before that, especially Roy who has led so many other teams and does not deserve that shit. Some fans also ship him and Jason, which is both creepy and character assassination for Roy's entire character more than him being friends with Jason and in the Outlaws already is.

Also, Pit Madness is not a thing you fucking brainless losers. Stop trying to justify and erase the flaws that make him an interesting character. His anger has always been due to the trauma of being tortured and dying and the misguided feeling of betrayal he felt for Bruce. He was unwell and taking his problems out on others. So, repeat after me: PIT MADNESS IS NOT A REAL THING!!!

Thank you for reading <3
