From the Trophy Case of Captain Janet Starcraw
Gathered from her many adventures. (top to bottom, left to right):
European ChemoStunner - Taken from Bulge-Eye Blorks, space pirate and tax evader, after his third ignominious defeat.
European DeLiminator - From Blorks' first mate, Mr. Krispin, used by Captain Starcrew to navigate to an exterior airlock after being made to walk the plank.
Baron R'Man's Bespoke Calcinator - Planted on Princess Xil to frame her for the Baron's murder, foiled by Captain Starcraw in the Star-Ape Caper.
Palatial Calcinator - The actual murder weapon, taken from the Captain of the Guard as he slept by Orbian saboteurs.
L'l Squirt (European XL Holdout) - Cadet Candi's first off-regulation sidearm, given to the Captain as a thank-you gift.
Hawkbright - Prince Karax's favorite hunting disruptor. Once possessed of a Class IV artificial sapience. Bequeathed to the Captain for acquiring the replacement vessel (now designate Princess Comprixa Hawkbright Karax.)
Lucky Longshank's Piece - A custom negamatter hand cannon, which took the lives of a dozen lawbeasts before the Captain was unlucky 13.
Sunbolt Radium Pistol - The Captain bought it on a trip to a flea market outside Helium. She thought it was nice.
Stool Pigeon (73L Neutron Derringer) - A customized snub-nose neutronizer used by the hitman Mr. Moonshadow.
Samantha (99K Quark Inverter) - The only thing to survive the explosion of Johnny Horus's Starsled. The Captain remains convinced the na'er do well will return to reclaim it. Its ability to scramble physical properties has come in handy more than twice.
Various prompts used. Most were along the lines of "a ray pistol shaped like a fish" with one ore two image prompts of toy and prop ray guns, both vintage and otherwise.

Last month I uploaded the last chapter of Tomorrow's Just Another Day to AO3.
71,832 words, written between 5/2022 - 6/2023 → go to the Billy Quizboy & Pete White index
Tumblr media
If you read any of this shit, thank you very much. I hope you got some entertainment out of it. I can now retire from my brief but intense career as fiction writer.
— THIS TUMBLR IS ALSO RETIRED —.
Tomorrow... follows Boy Genius: 54,414 words between 11/2021 - 2/2023
Boy Genius was meant to read like a (very long, unfocused) episode of the Billy & White spinoff show, had it existed. Tonally, it's in the sci-fi-through-mundanity Venture genre: a SuperScience convention paralleled with the culture of competitive boy geniusing. Billy's mother is the only other canon Venture Bros. character to appear.
Tumblr media
Tomorrow is fan fiction in response to fan fiction. I never saw a Billy romance attempted so I wrote one. It's not slash or erotica— just '90s style indie film awkwardness. Not in the Venture Bros tone at all. There's no sci-fi element other than Billy's robot hand; no Venture content other than Billy's Rusty Venture memorabilia collection.
It's still a nostalgia wank. I go real deep on mid-1990s specifics.
Because the show came out so slowly over a long period of time (20 years!), the current generation of most-fired-up-fans are way younger than the creators or the characters. Each fan creates their own internal canon for the characters they love. They experience it through their own frame of references. Own it. Go on with your bad self. I GET IT! YOU DO YOU!
THAT SAID...
Seeing fan stuff saying like "Pete identifies as gamer ..something something playing Minecraft" "Billy buys import Vocaloid/Anime figurines" totally gives me whiplash. Because I'm an old. (Not as old as AstroBase Go and not as old as Conjectural Technologies but enough to know their references.)
My read on it— Venture Bros is a quintessentially a Gen X show and Gen X nerdery is a whole other animal. Being a weird dork manifested in a whole other way before widespread internet use and the current age of geek culture dominating pop culture. It was a shameful niche.
So, playing around in the '90s I got to define some of that old school dorkwad identity and I got to top-load it with every nostalgic element of the era I could think of (and research for even deeper cuts.) I was in high school then, so some of that shit is stamped on my brain.
I created an original character who I hoped would be interesting and flawed and believable for the era but most importantly funny playing off the characters fans would already know. (And then get rid of her when I was done, though I felt bad about it.)
Between the two stories, the only material I never found a use for was high school stories of 9-12 year old Billy meeting an inspirational (secretly alcoholic/crack-smoking) teacher, taking over the varsity Quizbowl Team, a battle of wills with his rival (the unctuous team captain with a McEnroe perm and temperment) and getting stood up by his prom date (Pretty in Pink situation where he is both Duckie and Andie).
if you've read all the way to the end of either story, please leave me a comment or send me an ask or DM or something. I wrote a hell of a lot of words (and drew way too many illustrations) on this fuckin' thing. Thanks.
