#until it is 'yes' instead

Every time I get a little too deep into the xenobiology rabbit hole with my Metroid fic, and find myself debating whether I'm prioritizing aesthetics over realism too much, I have to remind myself that Eyons exist. Metroid Prime has wall barnacles with giant eyeballs that inexplicably shoot green lazers, all to create a minor inconvenience for Samus. Not only is adherence to realism overrated, I could honestly probably stand to get a little wackier with it instead, if I want it to feel appropriate for this universe.

The cutest reminder ever that the way family works in TSAMS canon is that two parties have to be in mutual agreement that they are family. If one party doesn't agree then they aren't family. Parties can revoke familial ties whenever they want and that means they are no longer family.

"Code Relation" theory is stupid because you're then implying that Eclipse is Sun and Moon's child. Which he isn't. Or that Killcode is somehow Moon's child and his brother at the same time that he's Eclipse, Lunar and Bloodmoon's "father" at the same time that they're Sun and Moon's grand children. Like, we're seeing the issue here, right?

Don't make things more complicated than it has to be. Just accept the fact that family is literally determined by a verbal agreement between two animatronics and nothing else because none of them were born from wombs. That means respecting canon when characters in canon decide that they aren't comfortable being family (like Eclipse) or just straight-up disown everyone (like Bloodmoon). It's okay to have headcanons, but don't try to push them onto canon.

Shockingly underrated thing about Leo is that he’s legitimately charming when he wants to be?

He’s the Faceman! He’s persuasive! That’s not just some random title he gave himself with no backing to it. People will listen to him. Even if they think he’s being annoying or if they’re upset at him, people listen to him anyway! There’s a reason his bros push him out front to talk to people, and when this happens, that talking nearly always works.

Moreover, Leo knows people. He looks at them and takes into account how they act and what they’re like as he makes his way through the conversations. It’s easy to forget this aspect of Leo’s character because he only brings it out when he really needs (read: wants) to, but it really is a notable part of him that always love to see.

And I say charm in particular because he has a knack for not only getting people to pay attention, but for getting people to stay and listen to what he has to say.

Once more thinkin about this Prompt/AU

And I decided to sketch the level 1 forms the team (& Ellie) have along with sketches of their lvl 200+ Forms. I do believe Klarion is having a blast with his new friends and the Young Justice Team is going to have some Trauma from not knowing this is a Game.

Tucker: Lvl 1 Cat | Sam: Lvl 1 Sprout | Valerie: Lvl 1 Golem | Danny: Lvl 2 Dragon Egg | Ellie: Lvl 1 Celestial Snakelett

(Click for higher quality) Also they are all now Mountain Sized or Larger. Also pondering them all having 3 stages to their bossfights. Second stages is when they start using more magic & less "minions" and final stage is when shit hits the fan & the surroundings get Wrecked. Like Tucker summoning a literal storm & getting lightning charged, or Sam fully emerging from the caves, or Valerie unearthing herself and the team realizing the entire dungeon-city was On Her Back.

Did some whump fanart of Aithne for @limited-hero, just a little bit of possession of Majora. Was he chained down to trap Majora, or to make it easier for Majora to possess him? Who knows? Not me!

Edited to add image ID in alt.

I'm rewatching Kremy and Gid's wedding and I'm so happy that I did, because I missed Richie saying this line originally.

Nikkie: Kremy you're walking very closely behind, you are technically and legally married to Gideon.

Richie: I guess common law really, probably nothing really changes.

My beautiful, beautiful boy 🤩

You ever just see people talk about the Percy Jackson books and know somewhere, deep in your heart, that none of these people have understood that this is a series made for middle schoolers. And that fandom will very frequently lie to them like, all the time. No, that character probably isn’t ooc, you’re just thinking of what the fandom turned them into. No, this book isn’t a horrible stain next to the others before it, literally all of them were like this. It’s Percy Jackson. It’s cheesy and occasionally makes a very questionable writing decision.

You gotta be in this for the long haul or jump ship my guys. Be cringe and free or be gone

2020 vs 2024

I think the most important takeaway is that I learned to draw elf ears bigger correctly.

Without taking new pics, post one of your OCs as a:

Romanceable NPC

"No no! I wasn't checking you out! I was just...looking...at you."

Questgiver

"I have a proposition for you..."

Final boss

"Fate spins along as it should~"

Happy book birthday to Gothic Lesbians!

Five years ago I hit publish on my gothic lesbian Victorian romance, The Haunting of Heatherhurst Hall.

Perfect for readers who enjoy…

sapphic yearning

mutual pining

hurt/comfort

goth x sunshine pairings

practical approaches to supernatural problems

angst angst angst and then happily-ever-after because i'm not a monster

Victorian ghost photography

Christina Rossetti's Goblin Market

New England history and folklore such as the New Bedford whaling industry, the Mercy Brown vampire panic, the Lizzie Borden murder trial, and the Newport Mansions.

You can find The Haunting of Heatherhurst Hall wherever fine books are found - but if you get it thru Smashwords it's 50% off (along with all my other books)!

And thank you for reading!

Pov: You messed with the wrong Courier

[pa-pa-plasma]

you just made the scientific discovery of the century & you want to tell everyone & your kids are first on that list but you can't find them. you manage to get a hold of your daughter & she says everything is fine but her voice gets tight when you try to mention your work & she sucks in a breath & says she won't keep you from it any longer than she already has & doesn't say bye as she hangs up the phone. you have a sinking feeling in your gut & you really want to get back to what you were doing but. something's wrong. where are your kids. why was your daughter not surprised when you told her. why was she so quick to hang up on you. your husband has the same type of mind & that's probably why neither of you can ignore this odd turn of events & so you decide to track them down. the research can wait. after all, the spook got away somehow afterwards. it's not like you have anything to go through but data & recordings.
