Hi, hello, I’m new to your blog. I’ve made myself at home. Lovely carpet.
Can I please know more about your spider Robbie pie? Can’t seem to find the silverware.
Tumblr media
but of course, kind anon
Spider Robbie is an au in which Robbie Robertson takes up the spider mantle after the death of the one before him. He is the third, following Ben Urich and, most notably, Peter Parker.
This au is very much canon divergence from Eyes Without a Face, where Peter makes it in time to save Robbie from his original fate but dies in the process. Peter is shot while rushing Robbie and the others out. In his panic and elation at finding Robbie physically unharmed, Peter outs himself as the Spider Man to his best friend. Robbie stays with him as he bleeds out and resolves to continue to hide Peter's identity.
Peter is buried and remains that way for... an undetermined amount of time.
Robbie is left with a mask, a jacket, and the question of just who was this other half of his friend. As he learns more of who this... Spider Man was, he gets more and more involved in the spider's cases and conflicts. Robbie gets more sure of his own abilities and makes a bit of a name for the Spider Man within his own community, though the people of Harlem are largely unaware that the appearances of a masked vigilante match the interests of one Robbie Robertson.
It is to be noted that none of these aforementioned abilities are spider-god-induced powers like Peter's. Robbie, especially at the beginning of his spidering career, leans more into Urich's role than Parker's. To me, Robbie has been passionate about the press and journalism in a way that Peter never was. For Pete, his job as a photographer and reporter was a job he took until he could get into college and study science. Robbie has a way with words and communication that Peter frankly lacks. Of course, that isn't to say that Robbie won't be kicking ass, because he will. It will just take him a bit of time to get some of those skills as he's, well, a normal guy. Not everyone can get their biology scrambled like Pete.
And just because Robbie hasn't been scrambled doesn't mean he's completely separate from all things supernatural either!
I think the marvel noir universe is at its best when there's a magical, supernatural undercurrent. This concept isn't super prevalent in the actual comics, but HoplesslyLost on ao3 has done some really cool world building with it.
I think in Robbie's case, where he would be the narrator, "magical realism" would be an interesting avenue to take it. I use this term in particular because I most closely relate it to Toni Morrison in my head, when I first learned about it through her work in high school. For Morrison, the concept was inseparable to blackness and I think for Robbie, where his blackness is so central to his character and his motivations, drawing on that could be more of a service to his character. It feels better to do that than ignore how incredibly racialized his society and story is. It will make his relationship with the spider god, Peter (who I will get to very very shortly), his community, and his own mythos as The Spider Man really interesting and complex.
So it's been established that Robbie doesn't have spider powers. And we all know that Peter did-- or should I say does. One of the spider god's abilities is to bring Peter back to life. She does this in the comics, but not in any of the runs from 2008-2010 (the runs that make up this au). When Peter dies on Ellis Island, he does not think he is coming back from that. Waking up again is a surprise.
Here's where I think the au really takes a left turn. Do I think the Spider God is purely evil and spiteful and has it out for Pete? No, not really. Will I be ramping said traits up to 11 for the au? Yeah, I guess I might. This is because I love a little bit of horror and the came back wrong trope. I will hopefully be fleshing the spider god out in the near future, but I really haven't given her the many hours of thought I have the other characters. For that I'm sorry spider god </3
Peter digs himself out of his grave, more spider than he ever has been. For much of his new, waking life he is more animalistic than not. There is clearly something wrong with him; his joints are too flexible and loose, he's got some eye-shine going on, his skin is pale and his veins are starkly dark beneath it. He's possessed. Someone is puppeteering him, someone who knows a lot-- almost everything about him, but it's clear that the someone isn't him.
And Peter--- the body, it can't be Peter. At least, that's what Robbie thinks when the figure catches his eye the first time. Because Peter is dead and buried, and he has been dead and buried for weeks.

Also just assume the ink/error i draw are different depending on the circumstances. at times i may draw my interpretations of canon ink/error (as close as i can get haha) and sometimes I'll do other interpretations.
I try to put a lot of canon elements into my version of errorink. Cause its just what i prefer. I find it more fun to figure out how they would deal with their own struggles flaws and fears together. but of course, its not completely canon nor im i claiming it to be (but i may negate canon much more for the bit, if it's funny ill do it whether its ooc or not).
I also won't lie, because i love them so much i find it really hard not to project onto them. alot of my headcanons stem from that honestly. So some of the things i draw and write may come from a place of finding comfort in that concept.

Hey, it's your trans big brother, just here to let you know that it's okay to feel bad sometimes. It's totally normal to feel jealous with people who are maybe further along in their transition or "pass" better than you, and it's fine if that maybe makes you feel angry or frustrated with the person because of it. It's okay if it feels a little hard for you to be happy for them right now, I get it. But what is not okay is if you make it that person's problem. It is not their fault you feel that way, and it isn't your fault either. So instead of lashing out and possibly hurting someone you care about in the process, sit with the feeling for a bit. Register it, take time to analyze what it is you're going through, and then try to deal with those negative feelings through other means, like art or journaling or really any kind of self-care, stuff that makes you feel good. I know it's hard to wait to start your medical transition if that is something you want, and I know it can totally suck to not pass, I am going through the exact same thing, and I definitely have people I'm jealous of. But it's okay. So if you are dealing with these feelings right now, feel free to use this as a safe space to vent about them. I will read your words, and I will support you in your emotional journey, and it is much much better to let your feelings out here than lashing out at people who really don't deserve it. And as always, I love you guys <3 Keep fighting out there, we got this.

It's not gonna be structured, I'm just gonna roll switching from oc to oc.
I feel like Barks would never sleep at night because he would just think about all the brothers he couldn’t save after every mission. But even when he sleeps willingly it doesn't last long.
If Bear were to ever get in a relationship he could never sleep after an argument, he won't sleep until everything has been settled.
Storm probably has the most tattoos out of all my clones, but they all happen to be dedicated to the brothers he's lost. He almost got one dedicated to Barks.
Put Skunker and Barks in a room, and I can assure you that Skunker is leaving with a dislocation (Barks didn't do it.)
Bear drinks enough caf to probably kill a person, but he'd deny it. "This is my first cup today." I can confirm that would be a lie, he's probably drunk two, maybe three.
Erix has a bullet in a necklace given by Skunker the first time they met, the other Skunker jokingly said "Next time you annoy me this is gonna go in your forehead" and Erix kept it just to annoy him.
Bear would give droids pronouns I think
Storm will literally hit Barks for no reason and when Barks hits back, Storm screams for Rex
Barks will try to explode you with his mind if you annoy him
Barks: "snapping my back like a glow stick would solve all my problems."
Storm absolutely FACEPLANTED the first time he stepped off a gunship for the first time. Nobody let's him live it down. The next time he did it was in front of Anakin
Erix will do something, blame Storm and boom Barks and Storm argue. He loves it.
Erix cusses like a sailor
Skunker admires Barks and Rex for putting up with the chaos
Skunker bombards waxer, boil and wooley with jokes
Bear bites off more than he can chew
Now some incorrect quotes:
Barks: I hope no one lowkey hates me.
Barks: Highkey hate me. Hate me with every fiber of your being.
Barks: Go big or go home.
-
Barks: Sometimes, I don’t realize an event was traumatic until I tell it as a funny story and notice everyone is staring at me weird.
-
Barks: I don’t think the therapist is supposed to say ‘wow’ that many times during their first session with a client, but here we are.
-
Barks: I'm so tired of this life. I want to be a roomba. I want knives taped to me. And I want to be set loose.
-
Storm: I was put on this earth to do one thing.
Storm: Luckily I forgot what it was so I can do whatever I want.
-
Storm: Is this a good idea?
Storm: Probably not.
Storm: Do I care?
Storm: No.
-
Erix: I'm a firm believer in "if you're going to fail, you might as well fail spectacularly."
-
Storm: I didn’t even realize how sarcastic I was being. It’s starting to become a problem, I think.
-
Erix: Barks, gather the others. We need to have another Storm -is-doing-something-stupid-again-and-we-have-to-stop-them-before-they-hurt-someone convention.
-
Barks: I’m not a doctor I’m a medic.
Erix: What’s the difference then?
Barks: Well doctors actually save lives, medics just make you feel more comfortable as you die.
Storm: Note to self; never get shot.
-
Barks: Life keeps fucking me and I can't remember the safeword.
-
Barks: My expectations are low, but they can always go lower.
-
Barks: My knee just cracked so loudly that I half expect it to glow in the dark tonight.
-
Erix: In your opinion, what is the height of stupidity?
Barks, turning to Storm: How tall are you?
-
Storm: Dandelions symbolize everything I want to be in life.
Barks: Fluffy and dead with a gust of wind?
Storm: Unapologetic. Hard to kill. Feral, filled with sunlight, bright, beautiful in a way that the conventional and controlling hate but cannot ever fully destroy. Stubborn. Happy. Bastardous. Friends with bees. Highly disapproving of lawns. Full of wishes that will be carried far after I die.
Erix: Edible.
-
Erix: What if mayonnaise came in cans?
Storm: Well, that would such because you can't microwave metal.
Barks: Good morning to everyone except these two people.
-
Erix: Pros and cons of dating me.
Erix: Pros. You'll be the cute one.
Erix: Cons. Holy shit, where do I begin-
-
Phoenix: I scare people a lot because I walk very softly and they don't hear me enter rooms. So when they turn around, I'm just kind of there and their fear fuels me.
-
Phoenix: God has let me live another day and I'm going to make it everyone's problem.
-
Lazarus: I’m gonna mix a can of Red Bull with seventeen shots of espresso in a fishbowl and then chug it while Kids by MGMT plays in the background so I can perceive twenty-three spatial dimensions and fight my own soul.
-
Lazarus, writing in their diary with a glitter gel pen: I'm losing my sense of humanity. Nothing matters. God is dead. There's blood on my hands.

For the artist asks, 2, 11 & 18 :3
2. 5 favourites of your own work?
in no particular order:
pokesona, the stars are falling (not posted, will be posted with this years redraw), jewel's house, sleeping jewel, jewel's bedroom (also an extra bcuz i really like it but couldn't find the compressed file to put here: be back soon screen)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i have a lot of fun drawing my pokesona, it was drawn completely using vector lines which was unbelievably enlightening
the stars are falling was first drawn back in 2020 and has become a way for me to compare how my art has developed over the years. 2020 only featured Jason (he/him), 2021 only had Zero (ey/em), and 2022 includes the former two plus Cleo (she/her, but shes bigender and also goes by Liam he/him), 2023 will include Jason and Ambe (she/her). its a way for me to basically do a benchmark test on my composition and anatomy and colours and shading. i always have a lot of fun drawing it and sometimes making whole new brushes. important note: this one was actually submitted to an art contest, sadly i lost but it was actually my first time since elementary putting my art out with the intent to be judged.
jewel's house was my first time drawing and designing a house and finding different places to incorporate hearts was literally so much fun.
sleeping jewel is just super cute and jewel's bunny hoodie is my favourite thing ever. i have it on my phone and could stare at it for hours.
jewel's bedroom is ALSO a redraw. i enjoyed trying to fit so many things in it, i enjoyed sketching, i enjoyed lining, i enjoyed colouring. though this is actually my least fav of the 5 bcuz i fully believe the idea that your art is only as good as its weakest point. that's not to say its bad or that everyone will approach it as critically as possible. not even to say that everything needs to be perfect. but when i was rendering it, i didn't want to shade. so i took a funky brush and just rushed thru shading. in fact you can see that when watching the speedpaint, i just kinda scribbled the shading. HOWEVER that doesnt take away from the fact i think the rest of it is really well done. i think i did well on the bed in particular and the fact that i stylized a real bed that we own and my actual childhood bed that i would die to get back (we owned two, mine was lost when mum and dad had to abandon my childhood home bcuz of shitty roommates and a shitty landlord) i enjoyed drawing my actual stuffed animals and my actual lolita dress. it like actually has sentimental value bcuz of all of that i just wish i did it better.
11. favourite comment you've ever received on your work?
uhhhh so like i dont usually recieve comments on my work aside from my family's "wow i could never do that" soooo well go with the comment you left on my bunny hoodie design bcuz as far as i can remember iirc it was the first time id gotten a nice comment about my fashion designs and i was really happy someone liked it bcuz im like super nervous about my silly fashion doodles :)
18. do you have any larger projects you'd like to pursue? like comics, shortfilm, a series, etc?
yes! id like House Of Misfits to be a cartoon, tho the show would probably be lighter than the short stories bcuz i don't imagine i could explore Amber's backstory on screen. im making a proof-of-concept website which is technically online and more than 70% unfinished.
i also have a coming-of-age novel i need to do research for called Saftey Blanket about a hijabi girl named Aminah in her senior year of highschool (if i made it a series wed get to see her twin siblings realize they're trans which would be fun but rn they are but lil babbies), id like to make a children's cartoon and a visual novel but i don't currently have any ideas for either.
btw despite the fact that i am an animator, i don't want to animate a show. i want to run a show. i don't actually enjoy animations longer than maybe 10 seconds.
i have a side project based around the album A Constant State Of Ohio by Lincoln that would be a very personal project around self image while having multiple personality disorders (and other problems), but i cannot for the life of me make an animatic. there's lots of ideas like this jostling in my brain, like a stop-motion animation of Through The Roof n Underground by Gogol Bordello, where i just simply cannot which i am fine with.
then theres the fact i do actually want to sew my fashion designs, at least that bunny hoodie if nothing else, and i cannot get my hands on any fabric despite owning a sewing machine

The Three D's
Tumblr media
(Click for better quality)
I have a horrible habit of dropping any series-comics I try to make, so I thought it'd do a little story-ish ask event!!
So far, we've got the three D's: Dogday, Daddy Long Legs, and Drew.
Basic info and closeups!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Drew, he/him, 18 yrs: the horror-loving nephew of an old Playtime Co. employee. Squawks like a strangled bird when surprised.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Daddy Long Legs, aka: "Pops:" If you could find a loving father from the 20s who wasn't a misogynist. Misses his wife, but doesn't blame Drew for her death.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Dogday, aka: "Deedee" or "Dogs:" The last, overly traumatised Smiling Critter who really needs a hug. Drew found him some spare legs in a closet somewhere.
Without dirt and grime:
