#welcome to the digital age

[sofwrites]

Hi - I’m the anon who loves Welcome to the Digital Age, Babe. I hope you don’t mind, but I was inspired to play in the sandbox from one of the messages we exchanged. This is like a really really shorthand version of what I think happened when Colin called someone the wrong name in bed. I guess trigger warning if you don’t like to read about Colin and anyone else but also not really. PS - I have actually never done this before. I just silently read fics but I guess I was feeling inspired : )

It’s a few days before Colin is supposed to meet Penelope in Rome. He’s at some bar in Cyprus with some fellow travelers he’s befriended over the last couple weeks. One of them invited some more friends who invited some more friends and so on. At this point, the group is made up of a few people Colin somewhat knows and strangers. He’s been chatting up this tiny dark-haired girl who beelined to him once she and her friends joined. Her friend keep shooting her obvious sideways looks and pretending they’re coughing but actually giggling. And Colin knows he’s getting lucky tonight.

And ordinarily, he would be thrilled, the frequency of this occurring never taking away from the delight and anticipation. But tonight, he’s feeling out of sorts. He’s been planning this Rome trip for days, probably more intensely than he’s ever planned any trip for himself or even any trip with family. He’s been to Rome before. He knows it. But this is different. He can’t just take Penelope to the usual haunts. This is her first real solo trip and he hates how awkward she feels about traveling with him (it’s obvious). He knows she probably prefers Eloise but since that can’t happen, he wants to make it the Best Trip Ever.

So he’s distracted when Emily (the tiny dark-haired girl) bats her eyelashes at him. He’s thinking about whether he should take Penelope to Mercato Centrale or Testaccio Market when Emily pretends to bump into him. He’s questioning whether he should take her to the Coliseum the first day or the second day after she’s settled in when Emily leans in to whisper in his ear. But because he’s human, he hears her obvious request to “get out of here.” And because he’s not an idiot, they get out of there.

Soon they’re back at Colin’s hotel room and things start heating up. But he’s still having trouble staying present. He’s not thinking about the itinerary any more - that would be an obvious buzzkill. But he’s just…not feeling it? No, they can’t be right. This girl is exactly his type and she so very clearly wants him. But he cannot summon any kind of desire for her right now, even when she’s standing in front of him in only a black bra and underwear. This is not okay. He scrunches up his eyes and digs back into a library of flings and one night stands to ground him.

Suddenly, something comes to him and he just latches on to it. He sees soft, flushed skin and eyes so blue he sees the ocean. He feels red locks of hair in his hands and curling over his body. He touches curves and curves for miles. A familiar body in a black lingerie set that is just driving him wild. The image becomes clearer and clearer and so so familiar and yes, this is exactly it. He is gone. Things are heating up as Colin becomes more enthusiastic, finally stroking and caressing, desperate to be closer, until he hears it…

“Oh my god, Penelope…”

Embarrassingly, it still takes him a beat too long to realize that whatever was going on has now abruptly stopped. He opens his eyes and sees…not Penelope. Shit. Emily is staring back at him, anger and humiliation in her eyes. The next few minutes go as expected. Emily angrily pulls herself together, throwing some choice insults at Colin who can only offer weak apologies and an offer to pay for an Uber. Once Emily has slammed his door shut, Colin lays back on his bed. What the fuck was that? What the absolute fuck… He throws his arms over his face, willing himself to sleep but he sleeps fitfully, thinking about a familiar redhead in black lingerie.

A few days later when Colin meets Penelope at the Rome airport, the open shoulder of her shirt reveals a black bra strap that falls down her arm slightly as she bends over to pick up one of her bags. When she looks up, Colin (who was chattering away the moment he saw her) is now pink and quiet. He stays that way, making occasional comments, for the rest of the way out of the airport while Penelope frets that she’s making things awkward for this trip that Colin is forced to join.

A year and a half later, after a long overdue conversation and an even longer overdue kiss, Penelope pulls off her shirt to reveal a black bra and Colin (to his extreme embarrassment) loudly exclaims, “Fucking finally.”

Hi, my dear! I was so happy to see this message in my inbox 🥰 and I'm so honored that Digital Age inspired you to try and write for the first time!

he hates how awkward she feels about traveling with him (it’s obvious)

This made me smile so hard for some reason I love him being able to feel how awkward she feels through their texts and things. It's like I'm getting to be a reader of my own fic and it's so fun skdfnlsdkf

He's having trouble staying present??? 😭 my baby boy this is kind of cute idk

"eyes so blue he sees the ocean" 🥺🥺🥺 aw???

😬😬😬 oof okay colin not super smooth but... yeah.

And AW the end 😭 no this was so cute? I love this entire plotline (although I am sorry to Emily, homegirl didn't deserve that) and how it would fit into WTTDA! I would happily put a stamp of approval on this addition<3

Thank you so much for popping this in my inbox! If you want to, I would definitely encourage you to keep writing :-) this was so fun to read and had my grinning (and cringing). And the last line made me giggle.

The elder men spoke low. They took a vote and said no. They turned around real slow. Where did they go? Where did they go? And the question oh, the question: can the kid keep his eyes, if the fire doesn't die? They said no.

It's me again! So, do you mind making a Jax moodboard with headcanons, and cartoon-ish aesthetic, farms and "mischievous kid" vibes? Like, I dunno how to explain, but I think you can get it. He's a trauma regressor because of the farm.

Maybe his regressor-buddy is Zooble? Not a Caregiver, but someone that regresses with him? They would have toy aesthetic and cartoon-ish aesthetic, too! Zooble is most likely a voluntary regressor.

Thaaaaaank you, pup!

Yuh huh, I can do that!! Sorry for being late to this request •́⁠ ⁠ ⁠‿⁠ ⁠,⁠•̀

🐇🧮Regressor!Jax and Regressor buddy!Zooble!

🐇Jax is a trauma regressor due to the farm from back before he became trapped in the circus. He usually regresses somewhere between 2-7, but on a worse day he can regress as young as a month old. His regression buddy is Zooble, who regresses around 6-8 years old.

🧮Jax, when older (4-7), is a very mischevious kiddo. He likes running around during quiet time and replacing other's toothpaste with mayo. He's louder, and tends to use his outdoor voice at the wrong times. He'll need multiple reminders to use his indoor voice when appropriate. Though whether he'll listen or not is up to him...

🐇When younger (3-), though, he's practically a sweetheart. A complete personality change from his usual hyper, mischevious self. He'll still have a bit of his usual self, laughing at silly faces and others' fails. But he's pretty calm and sweet, making grabby hands and holding his stuffies close. He naps a lot when younger, cuddling into his blankets and pillows with his best bud, Zooble, next to him.

🧮Zooble isn't near as energetic or mischevious as Jax is, prefering to keep to themself and play with their toys. Though, once they started regressing with Jax, they found themself wanting to be near Jax and play with him instead of by themself.

🐇Jax looooves dressing up and playing pretend when regressed! He likes games like Cowboys and House, as well as Princesses and Fairies. He likes all pretend games! His favorites are Cowboys and Princesses, though. Zooble isn't the biggest fan of games that take more energy, but they like playing with Jax so they'll settle with Cowboys and stuff.

🧮Now, playing pretend doesn't have to use up a lot of energy, but Jax prefers it that way. He's a very hyper and energetic older kiddo, so expect running from dragons and shooting Gangle with finger guns. Repeatedly.

🐇Jax likes to roll around. That's it. That's all I have to say about that.

🧮Somedays, Jax'll have a harder time, remembering the farm and various past traumas. Zooble helps him by holding him close, letting him cry on their shoulder while patting his back. If he wants distraction, then they'll play his games with him and watch Scooby Doo and Wild Kratts.

🐇Surprisingly, Jax hates upsetting Zooble and playing pranks on them when regressed. He can and will start crying if he accidentally takes their arm off of them or something. He loves his best bud, and doesn't wanna make them sad or upset!

🧮Him and Zooble are attatched to eachothers hips when regressed. You cannot seperate them without buckets upon buckets of tears being shed. They play together, sharing toys and video games. They watch TV together, watching a movie both of them like (or dislike, what matters to them is that they're together) with snacks and blankets galore. They share eachothers food, trading oreos for gushers and so on. You get the point.

🐇Long story short, they're the bestest of friends! Jax is energetic, mischevious and loud when regressed older, and quieter, sweeter and silly when regressed younger. Zooble is calmer and likes to play a lot, with building blocks and pop-its galore.

🧮🐇🧁

"is gooseworx upset about digital circus becoming a cocomelon ass thing id be so angry lol" I cannot express to you how much they have achieved the DREAM for an online indie animator. they got millions of views with A PILOT ALONE! the original characters are already being cosplayed and the models are being thrown into random ass meme videos as if its a massively famous IP! all that with an indie 3D studio! AND the cg actually looks incredible!!! think they're gonna be okay if some content farms use their models for some brainrot finger family video.

I've been daydreaming excessively about some Welcome Home AUs for this past hot minute, and during one of these said daydreams, I thought of this cute scenario with @deadlyeyez 's Watcher! Wally!! This scenario isn't cannon in this AU in any way that I know of, but I thought that it was cute, so I made a lil' comic about it! :D

I hope to golly y'all can read my handwriting! If not, I will gladly add a typed transcript if needed!

Watcher Wally was SO fun to draw, and writing all the little pet names for (Y/N) made me feel so giddy! I hope y'all enjoy this comic!

Aaaaaaahh little Wally and Eddie having a play date? (Welcome Home :3)
