This post is talking about the designs (and the designs only, I haven't read anything from the authors and dont even know who they are so this is design based only) released for the new Damian Wayne comic - The Boy Wonder. I will be heavily critical and btching about these, but please tell me your thoughts as well. After Damian, the others are under the cut. Please read because it's important.

Damian's design is actually really good and the best one, which is probably good since this is a comic about him. And I love how he's not whitewashed, which is something that happens way too much in comics.

Now, to Nightwing, his design is okay for a Nightwing design, but he just looks off in this style. I think if they tried to stylise him more, it could look a lot cooler. So I think he's just got wasted potential. Also, he's probably whitewashed as well to make damian more special as the "only" POC in the family (probly why Cass, Duke, Luke, and Luicus aren't here as well).

Babs is next, and this is the main reason I made this post. They abled her. DC authors stop abling disabled characters, please, for the love of me, I can't stand it. She can be disabled and still be relevant in the plot. I swear the only reason authors do this is because they don't know how to write disabled characters. If they need a Batgirl, use Steph or Cass because they are more than capable of doing it. I know they aren't as iconic as Babs, but move on DC. She's so much more interesting as Oracle.

Batman, I'm not a fan of his big blocky design. I just don't like it. He also looks really irrelevant and giving this is a comic about Robin (his son!) I think he should be relevant or look like he isn't a background character who just grunts, like for the design it looks like he doesn't talk. Don't like it.

Jason now, I actually love his Red Hood costume it looks sick, and the R on the chest *chefs kiss*. But his robin outfit is too gritty, and from that, I can tell he's going to be mischaracterised as the "angry Robin," so Hood looks cool, but that's all it is, his looks.

Tim. There is so much to say, omg. Where is his hero outfit! Everyone else got them. Why didn't he? You can actually see RR in the preview, so why wasn't that design put here? Why is it just Tim? And why does kid Tim look homless you know he grew up rich, before and after his adoption sure he has a style but his cloths wouldn't be friad he'd still look sleek and scruff not on the verge of his cloths falling off his back. For this, I can tell he'll also be mischaracterised as just like Jason since this is a Damian comic they are doing to do him so dirty. :( Sad day for a 90's Tim Drake fan (like every day, tbh save my guy). His RR design also has a shitty mask, but other than that, it seems fine, I like the wings/cape for it that looks pretty cool.

Alfred is a stereotypical old man. He's got no individuality what so ever and will proble be in one panel, say something sarcastic, and never show up again.

Ra's is okay. That's all.

Talia doesn't even look like herself . If you showed me her design with no context, I would not know who she is.

Carrie. Why is she here? Like honestly, why? There are better characters to include in a comic like this, like Steph or Cass or Duke or Helana. They would all be better chooses than Carrie. I'm not the biggest Damian fan, but ofter, Damian fans have been wanting him and Huntress as in a comic for a bit. I do like her design, but I just don't get why she's here. (I'm not including her image because of the limit bit is on my previous repost)

Can I please get HCs for Young Gojo and Geto with a boiling isles witch reader. Wherein both of them are utterly slacked jawed when they see her in action for the first. The context is Yaga was the one who enrolled them and acts like their guardian in the human world

This is kinda strange (? But okay! Whatever i love The Owl House so-

SatoSugu x Boiling islands! Reader

Genre: Headcanons

Reader: female

Warnings: some spoilers from Both series(JJK Hidden Inventory mostly) but nothing too relevant. Reader is a Witch. Fluff. Mainly comical.

OK! Taking what you said as a reference, I imagine that (reader) is a Clawthrone, and that is precisely why she had access to a door that led to the human world.

(although this may only be an option because it is canon that there are not only witches on the boiling islands, but on other islands, so it will be more ambiguous from now on)

but in general (reader) she was something like a reject from magical society (probably for not wanting to join a coven, like a boss) and that's why she started using the door constantly.

because 1- she could get human products that helped her survive and 2- if they chased her for too long she would simply go to the human world for a while.

Fortunately her magical abilities were not affected by the new world, yes, she was weakened, but she was still strong.

Besides, it's pretty cool to be "interesting" in an unknown world when in the world where you're known you're a juvenile delinquent or...a nobody...

Although in general I think that (reader) would end up staying for an indefinite period of time in the human world living as a vagabond precisely because they wanted to force her into a coven.

So now she's in the human world trying to adapt.

In general (reader) only used her magic if a quick escape was necessary or, even if she knew it wasn't the best idea, when there was a human-related emergency.

Let's say that (reader) realized that there was something strange with the country she was in...something familiar but at the same time VERY dangerous...

That's how Yaga found her.

He had followed several reports about a mysterious woman who used "magic" to prevent incidents, heal injuries, even fly on a kind of stick (Palisman).

At first Yaga thought it was simply an unidentified or unlicensed sorcerer, but she realized very soon that (reader) really didn't exist anywhere, no matter where she looked, there was nothing about her.

Besides, the way she used her "magic"...was definitely not sorcery. He had to know what it was.

It would probably take Yaga a little while to get (reader) to trust him, he probably lost her the first few times he caught her, but the more they interacted the more (reader) gave in.

and eventually decided to learn "sorcery" from those of the human kingdom.

(Let's say that Yaga was scared when she saw the living conditions she had (reader), even if she told her that it was fine like this and that it was only temporary, that only made her grab her pointy ears and give her a lecture about hygiene😅)

Yaga tries to learn as much as she can about (reader's) magic before sending her to the academy, to see what things can adapt to her fighting style and what can't.

there is a lot of trial and error😅

But is it worth it.

(reader) still uses mainly the fighting techniques of a person from the Boiling Islands (a witch) but now she also knows the basics of sorcery, so she will be able to easily pass the entry topics.

Now, when she knows the group she was assigned to, I'm not going to lie...

They laughed in his face.

Although well, she doesn't blame them, if she hadn't had the door and had visited the human world several times before, she wouldn't believe any of this either, but she definitely got quite angry with that reaction.

to the point where he did a spell in which he made plants grow on their heads... and maybe some abobinables...

It wasn't until Yaga arrived that things calmed down and were better explained.

Gojo was the first to laugh.

although also the first to get confused.

yeah, right, like those things happen-- and before he knew it his seat was being lifted by some kind of...purple golem??

OKEY WTF

Geto doesn't want to laugh. oh really.

but you can't really ask him to take this seriously.

although he is definitely surprised when out of nowhere he gets trapped in a vine that appeared OUT OF NOWHERE in the living room.

When Yaga explains the situation, that (reader) is not lying and that she really comes from another realm, they demand to see the portal. There has to be proof...

and when they take a look at the world of the boiling islands...Bonesburg (they had to pinch each other to know that this was real and not a collective hallucination)..well, they definitely believe him now.

Although definitely when they return to class they feel a little bad for having laughed at her in her face, so they try to ask her things about her.

It definitely doesn't work at first, but little by little you can see that (the reader) is losing her bitterness.

Both Geto and Gojo try to help (reader) adapt to a "more normal" school environment where doors don't bite you and your locker doesn't eat your books.

Speaking of which, they are quite curious about the "cultural differences" between worlds.

Gojo definitely wants to get on a flying boat. or see the giant skeleton that the boiling islands are on (although Geto questions how hygienic that is).

Imagine the reactions of both when they find out that the Giraffes are from the Boiling Islands but that they were banished by the ancestors of the witches 🤣

or that opossums are considered myths and not real! (reader) definitely goes crazy when she sees a real one.

Geto LOVES (reader's) Palisman, plus he seems to gravitate toward the natural one when he's feeling sad :')

Geto definitely wants to know how (reader's) magic works on a technical level (I don't think he can use glyphs, but maybe adapt some of the reader's moves into his fighting style).

Gojo wants to learn to do poses solely and exclusively for PRANKS, fortunately Geto avoids this.

Geto is more interested in the culture of the islands, more than anything when they both learn about the "coven system" of this "Emperor Belos" and why (the reader) did not want one despite it being dictated by law.

Let's say they understand it.

Geto strongly suspects that more than a security measure, it is more a way to limit power, which he can tell with certainty from (the reader's) level of strength even when weakened.

Speaking of which, they both have a difficult time with (female reader) at first.

whether due to illusions, unwindings, roots, etc.

All this without mentioning fireballs or snow coming in all directions or large constructions that look like something out of Fullmetal Alchemist.

the three of them flying! Geto in the rainbow dragons, (reader) with his Palisman and Gojo with his infinity.

If things end well (with Geto not turning evil, Amanai still alive, etc.) they are like a chaotic trio.

I highly doubt that island magic can be taught in the human world without glyphs, but it can definitely be taught as I mentioned before, by adapting movements.

Geto still has a great friendship with (reader)'s Palisman! and it makes him happy to know that the little friend will easily live longer than him :,)

Gojo is somewhat jealous of the Palisman, it seems like they compete for the attention of their partners and Satoru definitely LEGITIMATELY says that the Palisman blames him for things (sometimes yes, sometimes not).

Although I think they would both protect the palisman with their lives.

They are affectionate couples, and I think that together they manage to empathize better with (reader).

especially if you are homesick.

so they could take a vacation getaway to the boiling islands!

and it's actually pretty fun.

Gojo doesn't stand out in the slightest for once in his life and it's a little strange at first, but he gets it after 15 minutes on the busiest street.

Geto and Gojo now understand (reader's) strange tastes in food. Do you have anything to eat here that doesn't have eyes?...or guts?

They go to places of historical importance to understand a little about the culture of the islands, they avoid scammers, they go to eat somewhere that has food that Suguru and Satoru can digest, they avoid more scammers, they see the emperor's palace from afar, etc. .

(aunaue definitely seeing the place gave them BAD YIKES)

BOTH ALMOST DIE FROM BOILING RAIN, or when Gojo wanted to dive into the water without knowing it was also hot😭

IMAGINE GIVING THEM A PALISMAAAAAAAAN

They would both appreciate it FOR LIFE.

In general, these types of experiences help them to better understand each other mutually. and it also happens the other way around.

They have gone several times to the Thousand Red Doors with (reader), who, being (reader) wanted to go through ALL

They saw the old Buddhist temples, the trails, some mountains.

Although the cherry trees are definitely the best, especially when the three of them are alone and (the reader) uses magic to make the trees even brighter and more beautiful.

definitely a beautiful view...

In general, they appreciate the literally otherworldly beauty of their partner, they really love how unique she is and they wouldn't really change anything about her.

Shares, reglogs and comments are very welcome!

Thanks for the Request ❤️

I don't like writing for SatoSugu THAT much, but this was fun🥰

I’ve been gone for so long but I have so much to say and idk how to say it so please be prepared for an absolute mess of an ask lol

First, I just really wanna give appreciation for Super Emeralds (The comic creator) and their dedication to THOAM. I’ve been on Tumblr for just a little more than a year at this point, and I only joined in the first place because of this comic. I got into it way back in… What was it, 2020?? 2021? And I fell in love immediately with the concept! Sonic feeling insecure about his new Werehog form? Chip being an active member of the team and a great friend?? TEAM DARK??? SONADOW DONE RIGHT?????????? Ohohoho! You can bet I was completely on board! I tried my best to comment on every page, because I just love giving positive feedback for things I enjoy, and took note of how Super Emeralds evolved their style as the years went on. I wasn’t there during the beginning, and I really wish I was, but the time I’ve spent following this fun little comic has made me feel so much appreciation not just for Super Emeralds as a person, but for the entire Sonic art community as a whole! Art is a creative endeavor, a passionate career, and sometimes it’s really hard to just. Draw. Comics are especially hard as I’ve discovered. So just… Good job to Super Emeralds for sticking around all these years and for giving us such an incredibly thought out and beloved series. And thank you.

…

ALRIGHT ENOUGH OF THAT MUSHY GUSHY STUFF AND LET’S TALK ABOUT THE BLUE BOY HIMSELF THAT IS NOW NO LONGER JUST BLUE MUAHAHAHAHASHEHEHEKEFHEOFHFFPWEHFLFHD

I’ve been a bit absent from Tumblr for the last few weeks due to sickness and lack of interest so I am undoubtedly missing a page or two from the equation but OH MY GOSH. POOR SONIC. Bro wakes up from like a 2-day long nap and the first thing he sees is his little brother screaming in his face at 3AM. He’s so confused haha! I noticed he isn’t as insecure or he isn’t really freaking out as much as I assumed he would way back during the exposition pages. This is obviously due to the confusion and whiplash after waking up as his “Normal” self again, but I feel like it’s just him putting on another fascade around his friends. To an extent, at least. He isn’t aware of the new pink markings all over his body and he isn’t aware of just how worried all his friends were. All he knows is that they know about his new form and they for some reason aren’t acting weird about it, so he’s likely just playing along to make sure nobody gets overly concerned. It just seems like something he’d do. Or maybe I’m just grasping at the angst straws, idk.

OMEGA IS FIXED BY THE WAY I DO NOT WISH TO GLOSS OVER THAT FACT. THE BOY IS BACK!! THE ROBO BOYO IS BACK!!! I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE ALL THE CRIMES HE’LL BE ABLE TO COMMIT ONCE TAILS GETS THOSE ROCKET LAUNCHERS WORKING AGAIN HEHEHEEE

Also let’s not gloss over how Omega doesn’t care that Sonic mauled him to death. Let’s not gloss over the fact that Omega clearly cares for the others because of his ignorance to Sonic’s rampage.

Yeah if you couldn’t already tell I’m a sucker for this kinda stuff-

Uhhhhh I don’t really have much else to say, honestly. Maybe I will later, but right now I’m on a time crunch so I gotta keep this all pretty concise. Thank you so so much for reading all the way through, I know this was a really really long one. And again, thanks to Super Emeralds for being able to last this long and not losing motivation for the comic. I know I would’ve given up after just 5 pages! (I actually tried to make a comic of sorts and I literally gave up after 5 pages I am not kidding.)

Aight I gotta go now bye bye!! 👋

ur gonna have a field day in 2-3 weeks depending on when u decide to go on rampage haha

#fan lore #clover-the-awesomest #long post #BTW I APPRECIATE THESE MESSAGES I JUST NEVER KNOW WHAT TO SAY IN FEAR I SPOIL ANYTHING AJHSFAHJS

Before I start this, I'm pretty new to comics, but from what little (and I mean LITTLE I got into the game late 😔) I HAVE read, I do like IDWs Transformers run. All the cool cybertronian lore, cultural things, social hangups things like that? THAT is what's interesting to me about stories based around aliens. Whats their culture? What is typical for them that would be so wild here? What is considered tradition? What is taboo? (Fighting is also REALLY cool but without some sort of emotional backdrop it kinda just turns into taking ur action figures and smashing then together randomly for me.) So since I missed the IDW arc, I thought I'd try the reboot. (Rest below the read more)

ALRIGHT, SO THE MEAT AND POTATOES OF THE POST: I've been debating on getting the skybound TF comics. I don't want to miss out if later on they reach more...interesting, to me, plot beats but I really really don't care about the "oooh back on Eaaaaarth" plot...AGAIN. I care even LESS about the forced G.I. Joe on the horizon. Hasbro. Let it GO. No one cares about the random American military propaganda franchise that literally never does well in ur crossovers.

I'm reading Transformers FOR Transformers, not "you too can help fight evil IRL, join the military!"

Furthermore the art style is uuuuh...not bad just definitely not for me. The random WWE moves are just kinda awkward, especially when paired with the art style (I understand its trying to emulate the G1 style but no). I get some people like em and that's fine but...yeah.

And so far, emotionally I don't really feel anything? From what people have tried to tell me is "good" about it, Its just "starscream is a menace". Which would be perfect as a sideplot, if anything else interesting was going on, but after getting an overview of the first 3 issues, it just seems like its: "fight fight fight", starscream does a war crime, "fight fight fight", the humans get in the way, "fight fight", Starscream is being very naughty, also the humans don't understand anything as usual and have decided the best course of action us to get in the way AGAIN (please ur are the size of this guy's EYE. MOVE)

I dunno, again my interest in the reboot has more to do with POSSIBLE on Cybertron plots that may or may not even happen, so is it even worth it?

If anyone has anything more to say on the Skybound reboot (in favor or against) please feel free to comment or anything, I wanna be more informed before investing in a series I'm just not gonna like or something.

I want something that has...feeling I guess it boils down to. Im not getting that from it so far from what people are trying to use to sell it to me.

#Transformers #transformers skybound #i wanna KNOOOOOOOOW what the council has to say

Hi....If you don't mind, can I ask, what are your top 10 (or top 7) favorite media (can be books/ manga/ anime/movies/tv series)? Why do you love them? Sorry if you've answered this question before......Thanks....

Oh, boy. Okay, this will take a hot minute, but thank you, I appreciate the question. None of these are in order, they're just my favourites.

1. Bungou Stray Dogs- Confession: I grew up hating manga and anime because in high school, I had friends obsessed with them, and they tried forcing me to watch them and read them, then they got angry when I had no interest. But with BSD, my younger cousin just needed someone to talk to about it, and I wasn't about to be rude, especially when he made it sound so interesting! I got Covid and had to take some time off work, so I gave it a shot- the characters were interesting, the dialogue was hilarious and the story kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. I caught up with the manga, and thankfully got into the franchise in time to watch seasons 4 and 5. I'm also working on a couple BSD fanfics with my cousin, they're just taking a while lol

2. Hollow Knight- I don't take recommendations for anything, like if someone tells me "You should watch ****", or "I recommend ****", my mind goes "Well, I know what I'm avoiding for the next several years!" Hollow Knight was a little different because my best friend spoke highly of it, and said that it would definitely be my kinda game. He was absolutely right, I have well over 550 hours on it, and I'm really good at the game. Still haven't beaten the Pantheon of Hallownest, though. The art is beautiful, the music is phenomenal, and I love the challenging Boss fights.

3. Sonic the Hedgehog- while I'm absolutely aware that a lot of the games are trash, the comics can be a bit of a mess, and the shows are... actually no, the shows are pretty good and I LOVED the movies, really looking forward to the third one. I binge watched Sonic Prime yesterday and loved it. But Sonic is what got me through high school, I love the fast paced gameplay, the stories were always interesting to me, and the characters were always able to make me smile, even on the worst days. Admittedly, though, I tend to like the games that people hated most: Sonic Unleashed would be my favourite Sonic game, because I loved the fast day stages, and I loved beating the everloving life out of enemies at nighttime. I enjoyed all the stupid glitches in 06, and I actually really liked playing as Silver because I had a better grip on his controls. Because I grew up playing on my DS the most, Rush, Rush Adventure, Colours DS and Chronicles were the Sonic games I played most, and Chronicles was easily my favourite, I liked the RPG style and the larger cast of characters to use.

4. Mario and Luigi/Paper Mario- since both of these are in the same franchise, I'll stick these two together, especially since I like them for near enough the same reasons. Each new villain that the games brought out always made me grin, I have a soft spot for both Fawful and Dimentio, though I love Antasma as well. The stories were really good, like Super Paper Mario made me cry quite a bit. I loved the RPG gameplay that most of these games had, I've always been great with my timing unless it's a Boss, in which case I always screw up somehow. The music is amazing, the stories are incredible and I love the humour. For both, my favourites would be Bowser's Inside Story and Super Paper Mario.

5. The Case Study of Vanitas- okay, so while BSD is absolutely my favourite anime, it wasn't the first one my cousin got me invested in, that would go to this one. The story was fascinating to me, I loved all the characters (except Moreau, he can die painfully, please), and it inspired another fic that my cousin and I wrote together. I enjoyed the character interactions and how much each of them grew in their own ways, as well as just how they all know how to do things while trusting each other. Does that make sense? Probably not, I'm ill and I'm rambling lol

6. The Nightmare Before Christmas- I never watched this movie until I was in college, and I only knew the basic premise because of Kingdom Hearts, but when an ex-friend of mine lent me her DVD of the movie, I was in love. The story was simple, but interesting. If I'd watched it as a child, Oogie Boogie would have absolutely scared the living daylights out of me, I still have a bit of a phobia of bugs and I can't understand why when they're relatively harmless where I live. This was the only Disney movie where I had actively learned to sing ALL of the songs. I haven't watched the movie in a while, so I should get back on that. Oh, and if anyone asks "Do you watch it on Halloween or Christmas?" The answer is both: it is both a Halloween and Christmas movie, though you could also watch it on Easter if you wanted to, just use the excuse that the Easter Bunny makes a brief cameo, making it an Easter movie for a few moments.

7. Five Nights at Freddy's- this was something a lot of my high school "friends" tried forcing me to like by making me play it without giving me any context, but I ended up liking on my own by watching YouTube videos in my own time away from them. I understand that the timeline is so convoluted that even MatPat seems to be struggling to make it all fit, but I've always found the overall mystery fascinating and the character designs are really cool. Springtrap used to make me more nervous than any of the Nightmare Animatronics, although that could just be the knowledge that the Nightmares are an illusion while Springtrap had a rotten corpse inside it. Obviously I know that the newer games are a bit more broken, but I still love them. After all, without Security Breach, we wouldn't have Sunny and Moon, and I'd argue that a few people on Tumblr's lives have gotten better from their existence alone.

8. Bendy and the Ink Machine/Bendy and the Dark Revival- this is the only series of horror games I can play without having a full on panic attack, so that gives it a few points. I'll ignore whatever nonsense is going on with the books and a will remain unnamed co-creator, because I am the sort of person who will separate a creation from creator. I won't let someone ruin something I love for any reason. Anyway, I always found that the premise was interesting, I liked the artstyle and loved the characters. The voice acting, character models and the little combat we had were all excellent. I do like how Dark Revival took the story, but I admit that I haven't played that yet, because I'm hoping it'll come out on the Switch eventually, since that's what I played Ink Machine on. Oh, and I'll be honest when I say that when the pandemic first started, I read a lot of the fanfics people created on this franchise, and it was because of them that I got this Tumblr account in the first place.

9. Kingdom Hearts- this was actually the first game I ever played on a console that wasn't handheld; my older half-brother came to stay with us when I was really young and he wanted to bond with me, so we played Kingdom Hearts together. I sorta remembered the game in college and watched all the games on YouTube before buying a PS4 with my first work paycheck and then buying the Final Mix games. Again, convoluted story, but I don't care. I love the characters, all the different worlds you can explore, how different the battle system is. I never played or watched any of the Final Fantasy games, so I don't know much about their characters, but Cloud has always interested me for some reason? Anyway, I loved the bond that Sora, Donald and Goofy (in that order), have together, and being able to watch them grow as friends and as a team, saving all the Disney worlds makes me feel like a child again.

10. Spy X Family- this anime, I actually did watch on my own, purely because I saw an ad for it and thought "This looks cute, let's see if it actually is!" And yes, it was. My cousin was so happy that I watched it because he wasn't sure if I'd like something relatively soft, compared to BSD, and I unintentionally got my best friend to watch it, when I talked to him about it. Now we're all looking forward to the new movie and new season! The characters are all quirky in their own ways, the story doesn't take itself too seriously while also fitting in dramatic moments and even some emotional ones. Anya is a precious cinnamon roll and literally everyone should protect her.

TL;DR, if I had to pick a top 10 things I like, in no particular order, it's Bungou Stray Dogs, Hollow Knight, Sonic the Hedgehog, Mario and Luigi/Paper Mario, The Case Study of Vanitas, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Five Nights at Freddy's, Bendy and the Ink Machine/Bendy and the Dark Revival, Kingdom Hearts, and Spy X Family.

Okay, thank you for that question and I'm so sorry if you regret asking because I have no idea how to shut up when I start lol

you sit next to: nathaniel kurtzberg

this is a series where i make hcs about a character from miraculous sitting next to you. please request any characters you'd like from this fandom!!

nathaniel kurtzberg

- definitely does not talk to you for at least half of the first term

- mostly because he is easily intimidated and also he's just introverted

- however you guys begin talking when he finds out you also draw (sharing common interests!!!)

- extremely awkward talker. it does not get better the more you know each other. if anyone overhears any of y'all's conversations they'd think y'all just met regardless of how far you guys are in your friendship

- the easiest way you two get to know each other is doing dtiys (draw this in your style) challenges together during breaks

- basically analyzing each other's art style

- has actually stopped drawing to watch you draw once

- you caught him, he was embarrassed, you tried to reassure him that it was fine but he literally could not look at you in the eyes for the rest of the day (he got over it)

- will introduce his comic to you if you haven't heard of it already. even asks for criticisms, suggestions, or help for panels when he's not sure about them

"so in this panel mightillustrator is supposed to be, like, reaching? towards the page slash reader, but, um, i'm having a hard time with the perspective? it just looks like he has a really big hand. do you know how to, like, how to fix it?"

"well, firstly, references always help, and i'm assuming you're already using them so. uh, the panel you're trying to draw is foreshortening, and we're focusing on perspective. for me, it helps to draw lines in my figures to help plan the rest of the proportions. so, first, draw a line from the head to the feet, and it's fine if the line is a little curved. and then, a line from shoulder to the other, and from one side of the waist to the other. great, then draw the rest of the limbs like you're drawing a stick figure..."

- you're basically a lifesaver in his eyes

- shows you the new editions of the comic before it's released

- he introduces you to marc!! if you already know them, he invites you to hang out in the art room with them after school

- if you guys meet before marc and nathaniel are together, prepare to be unintentionally third-wheeling any hang outs between the three of y'all

- there is a chance (obligation) that you have to give nathaniel a number of pep talks to ask marc out

- you get the privilege of (kind of) playing matchmaker and get those two together

- if you guys get close enough, he'll invite you to hang out at his house and you get to meet his moms. they're incredibly sweet

- his room is full of figurines (cough cough there is a chat noir figurine somewhere) and posters (cough chat noir is again present) and sketchbooks (chat noir is there)

- nathaniel has a slight celebrity crush on a particular feline themed hero (it's chat noir. i stand on this.) because of this, you are subject to discussions (read: rants) about chat noir when you point out his presence in nathaniel's room

- do not mention this celebrity crush to anyone else. nathaniel will die quietly on the inside from embarrassment

- nathaniel wears eyeliner. he puts in on before class so you get to see the literal artistry he performs at his desk before m. bustier walks in

- you know those people that are superrrr good at eyeliner? that's nathaniel

- if you ask, he'll do your eyeliner for you (with your own eyeliner because sharing makeup isn't safe!!)

- a frequent hang out spot is the art room after school. alix, marc, mylene, and (occasionally) marinette are there so you guys get pretty close too

- ultimately, sitting next to nathaniel opens you to a world of dtiys challenges and exquisite eyeliner (and chat noir)

Drummmmm roll please!

🥁🥁🥁

Its time for

APRIL O'NEIL

(There is no option for yellow text its tragic really)

(tw mention of death and murder)

She's been obsessed with conspiracy theories for a long time, fueled by her fathers death. He died under mysterious circumstances and she is convinced something crazy went down on that day 13 years ago...

She has dabbled in a lot of different conspiracy stuff, and recently became interested in cryptids. She actually meets the turtles while searching for the Lizardman of NYC (which to the best of my knowledge I made up but maybe its an actual thing idk). She talks a lot about conspiracies on her podcast, the name of which I haven't actually decided yet. She wants to be a reporter when she grows up, but until then she shares her findings and research on the internet.

Her yellow jacket is a battle jacket because I want it to be. Right now the design is super simple since I'm new to drawing comics but maybe I'll do a full design of it sometime, idk. Eventually I want her to have a Hamato Clan patch on the back, but not for a LONG long time because Leo hates her guts.

April has gusto and tends to look on the bright side. After the first chapter, she starts doing a ton of research with Don about the Foot Clan. Raph also approaches her during his chapter about doing research on another evil organization.

Her signing style is super clumsy since she's still learning. She definitely leans towards English grammar and has no idea what signs are ASL, or ASL moderated for turtle hands, which could get wildly confusing if she tried to sign with a human lmao.

Her and Donnie are great at bouncing off ideas, and she loves doing crazy fun shit with Mikey. Her and Raph probbles beat people up together. Leo didn't know about her at first but through wacky hijinks they end up stuck together and learn to work together. It takes him a LONG time to trust her, and even then I feel like he would be super awkward with people outside his family when he's not being mean to them, especially with the language barrier, so idk about their relationship yet. I'm pretty clueless with Splinters character rn but I think it would be good for her to have a positive male role model in her life :) even if they never become super close.

(As you can see I had a lot of fun giving her different hair styles, so I want to do more research and try some things out :) I really do love drawing curls tho)

(Also Leo is not flipping her off he is pointing at his eye for the sign looks-like lmao. Turtle pointer fingers and middle fingers are the same so this could get confusing.)

Walkürenzauber / The valkyrie is here to ride!

Created from an excerpt of „Das Orakel des Nordens“ („The Oracle Of The North“)

Original Plot: Paul Halas Original Skript: Jack Sutter Art: Daniel Branca

As an admirer of "the good artist" Carl Barks, I also estimate Daniel Branca's dynamic style. He is known for conceding a certain sex appeal to Magica. In his stories, she often appears in disguise (as a piratess, a film actress, a female hippie guru, etc.), in a somehow sexy way - as far as this is at all possible for a female duck in an official Disney story.

„Das Orakel des Nordens“ was published in Germany and in several other countries, but it seems to be never been officially translated into English. In this story Magica performs a sort of Viking valkyrie nightmare and later on she impersonates the oracle.

Well, the plot is pure antagonistic stuff around Scrooge’s and Magica’s obsession with the lucky dime. Scrooge is a guest in Donald’s home. In the evening, they all watch a TV documentary about the Vikings. It claims that they were believing to receive clues about the future from dreams. Outside the window, Magica overhears everything and instantly gets an idee how to snatch the lucky dime. As soon as Scrooge has fallen asleep alone in his bedroom, Magica transforms into a valkyrie and performs a martial Viking nightmare. Of course, in his bedroom! Sleepy and under the fresh impression of the TV documentary, Scrooge is fully frightened. She instructs him to go to an arctic island in order to consult the „Oracle of the North“. There she hopes to get a chance to finally steal his lucky dime. Of course, once again this will fail at the end.

Absolutely no cuddly „dimeshipping“ moments so far! Moreover, at the very end, Scrooge even takes not much care of poor Magica, who is pretty battered. So what?

The best scene indeed is the „bedroom scene“. Magica is performing a perfect nightmare. But keep in mind: how many official stories might exist, with both meeting at night in the same bedroom? I bet that Branca and the two authors constructed this weird story primarily to try out how to install such a scene (and even a "bed scene", as Magica is standing on his bed in one panel!) to a youth-certificated story! It's quite clear that this only can be done if the dialogue is neither tender nor raunchy in any way.

Thus, it is up to the reader to imagine an alternative "what if" scene. What if Scrooge had seen through Magica's performance? Maybe something like this:

"Nice try, Magica! What an impressive entrance! But next time with some Wagner soundtrack, please. Oh, while you're here, my dear - why don't you take off that old tin can and make yourself a bit comfortable...?"

Pure mental cinema! In order to adapt the comic accordingly, one would not only have to rewrite the dialogue, but also redraw the panels. Otherwise, the facial expressions wouldn’t fit.

I tried an alternative idea, cut the bedroom scene out and provided it as an isolated story with completely new texts. The dialogue, of course, would have to match the facial expressions. So the result cannot be cosy and tender. But it can have a different background, based on the assumption that the struggle about the first dime has somehow been settled and Magica and Scrooge have reconciled. They now use to celebrate their reconciliation anniversary with a themed evening - in this case with a highly private „Wagner festival“. Unfortunately, Scrooge has completely forgotten the date, which Magica is not amused about. Just a little scene from a relationship still remaining complicated. (“Es bleibt schwierig“).

There are movies in which the leading male and female actors can't stand each other at first, then come together due to circumstances and find each other in the end. One can well imagine that with Scrooge and Magica. Both are strong and independent characters. On one hand, the hard-boiled businessman who is in love with his money above all else; on the other, the freaky sorceress, bursting with temperament, energy and crazy ideas. A permanent blissful romance full of harmony is hard to imagine here.

And hand on heart: it wouldn't be funny either!

So have fun with the valkyrie!

At first, I created the German version „Walkürenzauber“:

And now the English version:

#magica de spell #scrooge mcduck #dimeshipping #daniel branca

Hii I hope I can get a slot in at some point 😅 at the time I'm writing this, there's still some slots open so I'm trying to shoot my shot for tomorrow lol

Here is a match up I had from you before that I hope you can use, the only difference now is that I'm a bit open to jjba part 7 characters!

My dream first date would be going to one of those pottery studios! Like where you paint plates/cups/etc with each other! I think it's a cute way to know each other and I love seeing how they could express themselves with it.

notes 💌: hi love!! i am so glad you got to do this event!!! it was actually super hard for me to pick someone new for you surprisingly lol, but eventually, I got it!!! literally though, I think it fits pretty well. I hope you have a wonderful valentine's day love and make sure to stay extra hydrated, okay? <33

THE CHARACTER CUPID CHOOSES FOR YOU THIS VALENTINE’S DAY IS…

NARANCIA!!

so at first, you were really shy, but this man was not

he was just so willing to walk up to you and become a friend!

and when you two got close omg it's pure chaos in the most beautiful way ofc

like amazing balls of energy, the two of you

he laughs at all of your jokes and you laugh at all of his

he doesnt mind that you over explain stuff, if anything, it helps him understand better lol

he loves hearing you talk

he's very talkative himself, so you both cant help but talk to each other all day

he's always goofy, so you never have to worry about a rough tone with him :)

he would LOVE your buzzed hair with all of the different colors

he will help too

he is nothing but funky colors, so he loves when you wear funky colors, but also loves when you dress cozy <3

he just loves your style period

he would love to just sit and listen to music with you

PLEASE CROCHET HIM STUFF

like shirts and stuff he is so into the whole crochet style

like bags OMG

he would get all blushy when you give him stuff oh lord

he definitely respects that you dont want to be touched too much, so he just shows you his love through LOTS OF WORDS

you got yourself a lovely and energetic man who loves you with all of his heart and could listen to you for hours <3333

💌 HOW WOULD HE ASK YOU TO BE HIS VALENTINE??

he needed mista to help him out because he wanted something creative and cool. the two of them tried to write out "be my valentine" on a cake they baked, but they didnt wait for it to cool long enough, so it kinda was just a red blob on the top of a cake. narancia, with a bright red face, rubbed the back of his neck and said, "it was supposed to say be my valentine... do you still want to though?"

💌 VALENTINE’S DAY DATE

Narancia was never the best artist. He always tried his best, but he never found himself to be good at it. But when you asked if you could spend Valentine's day at one of those painting pottery studios, he couldnt say no. Plus, he wanted to give art one last try and to see a smile on your face, even the thought of it, already made him excited. You two showed up to the studio and he picked out a comically large mug and you picked out a plate. He was so excited, picking out tons of colors. You two talked for hours, even getting a coffee or two while you painted. You finally decided to paint your with your favorite colors and designs and Narancia decided to go for a Valentine's theme. It felt like time flew, but it was actually about an hour and a half of the two of you just painting. You finished something you were proud of, smiling at the little designs. Narancia jumped up with a bit of paint on his nose that made you giggle. "I finished!" He exclaimed, facing his mug towards you. There was a giant heart painted on it and thousands of colors covering the whole thing. Besides it looking a bit like a kindergarten art project, it actually looked kind of good. "I love it, Narancia!" "You do?" The smile on his face made the whole date worth it. "Wait!" He said, flumping back in his seat. "I forgot to write 'happy valentine's day'." "I think it looks perfect without it, Narancia." The truth is, you didn't want him to have another cake situation. "You're right," he said proudly. "Well, I love you." "I love you too," you smiled. The two of you then brought your pieces to bake for a day while the two of you spent the rest of the day together. <3

hello again !! it’s me, bear ( he/him, 24 ), back with my third and final (much anticipated) muse hwang mimi ( 010701 ). he’s a muse i’ve had in the works since late last year, dreaming of him with the far off hope that one day i’d be able to have a third muse, and that day has finally come 🥹 . i’m going to apologise in advance for him—he can be a bit of a problem, but he has his reasons, so please don’t judge him too harshly (or do, that might be fun tbh). you can find more info about him on his profile page, his biography is still under construction (forgive me), but i’ll leave more info about him beneath the cut. if you’d like to plot please like this post and i’ll send you a message! i also have discord upon request!

⸻ TLDR

[ tw: car accident mention ]

mimi was born to a young couple in seoul, but only a few years after his birth his father was killed in a car accident and his mother turned to the guidance & comfort of the new pastor at her church. within a year she’d gotten married to the pastor, and quit her job to be a stay at home mother (as her new husband thought was more ‘appropriate’). his stepfather very quickly became the unquestioned head of the household and shaped the family to his liking. mimi tried to be a good, obedient child, but his stepfather hated his questioning nature, his curiosity and soon forbade him from asking ‘why’. when he was six, his little sister was born, and he found he loved being a big brother, even if he was constantly reminded that he was a ‘bad influence’, no matter how hard he tried not to be. the rest of his childhood and adolescence went pretty much the same—he tried to win his parents approval, but could never seem to do anything right, so eventually just stopped trying.

as time went on, and other influences in his life grew stronger than his parents, he realised he didn’t agree with most of the things his stepfather (and subsequently, his mother) believed. his stepfather had never managed to cage in his thoughts, and so mimi began to explore interests that he knew his parents wouldn’t approve of. he’d always been a lover of music, but in high school he found rock music and dove headfirst into it. a new sense of style soon followed and this was where mimi’s true problems arose. his parents didn’t like his scruffy attire or dark clothing—’is that barbed wire on your shirt?’—and weren’t afraid to voice their opinions. he managed to placate them for a few years, minimising himself and his interests when he was at home.

everything came to a head during early to mid 2022; mimi had grown his hair out and dyed it. at this point, his parents came to the conclusion that he must be possessed, and after a failed attempted exorcism (which mimi merely found comical), he was ungracefully disowned and kicked out of the family home. his life pretty much fell apart after this, as he no longer had funding for unviersity, no home, and because he’d become homeless, his long-term girlfriend (who he’d thought he was going to marry) broke up with him. for a while he was homeless, going between park benches, bathhouses and friend’s couches until his bandmate ( @jindallaebe ) offered for mimi to stay with him. he’s been there ever since, but due to how suddenly he was kicked out before, he’s unsure about calling it ‘home’ quite yet.

⸻ UNDER THE SKIN

🎸 mimi’s always been very... anti-authority-figures. he has never liked rules or being told what to do, unless he can see a good reason for the rule existing. he’s a very self-led person, and is pretty impossible to influence. he’s so chronically individual that if everyone was doing something, and he’d end up entirely alone forever if he didn’t, he’d still stick to his own decisions and opinions, even if that didn’t align with what everyone else was doing. however, he’s not judgemental about people having differing opinions or tastes in things, unless those opinions are bigoted—then he’s not afraid to speak his mind. he’s the kind of person who won’t hold back from ripping someone a new one, even if that person is a good friend of someone he cares about. if they’re being a stupid a**hole, he’s going to say so, and if his friend doesn’t see it, he’s happy to cut them off too.

🎸 mimi has undiagnosed borderline personality disorder. while he showed minor signs in his youth, it wasn’t until he became homeless that the symptoms became very noticeable. he’s very sensitive to perceived ‘abandonment’, even when, after calming down a bit, he logically knows that, for example, someone choosing to spend the evening with someone else, instead of him, isn’t him being abandoned, it still, in the moment, feels that way. his emotions can change very quickly, and he can have pretty ‘black-and-white’ thinking about people; one day he can view someone as nothing but good and nice, the next as an entirely horrible, irredeemably bad person. he can lash out, say things he doesn’t mean, and sometimes throw things when he feels ‘in danger’ of being cast-aside/rejected/replaced/forgotten. he’s also very private—he believes that no one could really understand how he feels, and that he’s broken in some way, so there’s no point in explaining his emotions/feelings/problems to people, because they will unfairly judge him. he often feels ‘raw’ emotionally, as if everything affects him 100x more than it affects everyone else.

🎸 he’s an incredibly passionate, loving, and creative person. he loves very intensely (sometimes too intensely), and sometimes views this as a weakness. this love can be for people or things, like hobbies. he’s always had a very deep love for video games, music, and art, and loves no one in the world more than his sister. he’s always loved writing music/lyrics, doodling and drawing little cartoons, and escaping the real world through video games. he doesn’t readily share the things he creates with people, however, as he feels very vulnerable due to how much of himself he puts into them—criticism can seem, to him, like a direct criticism of who he is. he does love to play games with people, though, and considers this one of his main forms of bonding with people, as well as bonding through music.

Can I have some Micheal headcanons pretty please 🤸‍♂️

number one headcanon: he can and will be a fan of system of the down bc it’s literally autism metal with specific critique of the us government. Literally him but metal

because of this drawing will made, i like to think he and will’s favorite movie as younger kids was monty python and the holy grail!! the way will drew the man being eaten is pretty similar to the black knight from the movie after he loses his limbs

idk it has the type of stupid humor i think they’d love, plus all the fantasy elements.

i feel like they would also both pretend to gag and throw up whenever the house of virgins scenes started because ewwwwww girls have cooties 😝 and they watch it when they’re older but instead of gagging like little kids they make fun of the clear over exaggerations and stereotypes. neither of them could imagine any of the women in their lives being like that

i think mike can draw a little bit. he’s by no means Will Byers but i think he’s been doing little sketches in the margins of his notebooks his whole life so he was bound to learn how to draw some things. he can’t do crazy dynamic stuff, but he’s got a stupid cartoon orc he draws all over the place and he tried to copy different comic book art styles for fun sometimes so he’s got a unique little doodle style. when he gets really into one of his worlds while writing and can’t think of a way to describe a certain thing, he tries to do a mini sketch of it at the top right of the notebook paper so he can envision it a little more easily

SPEAKING OF he totally spent like 30 minutes trying to master the skater S to impress will (he’s known how to do it for months and hasn’t told mike)

he color codes his class materials and gets pissed when anyone disagrees with the colors he assigned to each class. lucas said english was yellow and he didn’t talk to him for like 3 days (they still passed notes during chemistry when lucas needed help with the math or mike couldn’t remember a chemical formula)

he has physical files he keeps of his friends, like reference notes and concerns and reminders, and they all sit under his bed. if you ask him this is Completely Normal behavior

when he and will move out to the city, he finds out he loves the ballroom scene. he never participates because he would trip and fall if he tried to do anything those people do but he adopts the flashiness into his style a little bit, kinda like how he sucked a little bit of eddie into his new look. like kirby. anyway i think he flares things up a little when he moves out to the city with bracelets and long shirts with flares at the wrists and his rhinestone belt over jeans and boots he got for $5 and they have a two inch heel to make him even taller. i don’t know anything about fashion but i think he adopts some ballroom flair into his look in the 90’s

he gets the heart+crown tattooed over the scar he got trying to sacrifice himself to save will

hates beer but drinks it as a teenager anyway if it’s an option, but as he gets older and into his more “fuck it we ball” attitude he learns that he REALLY likes mimosas and just any kind of wine

shockingly good at table tennis. He should not be good at table tennis the way he plays but he Is and it’s Weird

he can do the thing with your finger where you bend it to make it looks like it’s broken and he used it as a kid to make dustin feel a little better about his own stuff

HAAAAAATES shrimp. Absolutely despises it.

whenever he revisits hawkins he lays a flower down on the field for bob, barb, and eddie and tells them he hopes they’re doing okay wherever they are. sometimes he holds eddie’s flower a little longer and thanks him for all his help and talks about his latest dnd campaign or date plans with will (he likes to think eddie would be proud that he finally accepted it and even managed to win will’s heart back)

👍👍👍👍

I pretty much forgot about it, but I was looking through my notes and got reminded of a scenario I wrote for a short, simple DougLock comic (divided into frame-by-frame dialogue and descriptions). Since at the moment I don’t think I’ll be drawing it anytime soon... I thought I might as well share it with you?

(warning: I dunno how to write Doug, so here he kiiiinda talks as if it was still 80′s. Because I have no idea how to modernize his speech pattern from the New Mutants in a way that would be in character)

Calm scenery in front of the Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters. Douglas and Warlock are positioned under a tree. Doug is sitting leaning against the trunk, with his arms behind his head, while Warlock lies down on his belly, legs crossed at the ankles, head supported by his hands. Both boys look perfectly pleased with themselves and the world at large.

Doug: /stretching/ There’s nothing I like better than going on adventures and delivering some good butt-kicking, but once in a while a break also doesn’t hurt.

Warlock: /observing Dough with one eye, while the other one is focused on a butterfly/ Affirmative.

Doug: /looks down on the other boy with an endeared smile, his arms on the ground, pushing his body a bit to the front/ Well, that’s not entirely true, I suppose there actually is something I do like better!

Warlock: /looks back at him, his expression curious/ Statement is uncharacteristic for Selfsoulfriendoug. Query: what would such a thing be?

Doug: /laughs, bumping Warlock’s shoulder with his fist/ Hanging out with my best pal of course!

Warlock: /becoming all smiles/ The sentiment is reciprocated!

Boys sit for a while in comfortable silence, Doug eyes Warlock with a smile, as his hands thoughtlessly play with a picked up flower. Warlock notices some birds in the sky and tries mimicking their tweeting. (two or so frames)

Doug: /with a slight blush, handing Warlock the flower/ Hey, Lock… Could you close your eyes for a second?

Warlock: /taking the flower and draining it out of the life energy/ Query?

Close up on Doug’s face, his eyes are bashfully looking down, and his cheeks are tinted red. He doesn’t exactly appear embarrassed, maybe a bit shy, but there’s a sense of comfort to his expression.

Doug: There’s something I’d like to do. It won’t be any sort of mean prank, I promise

Warlock: /somewhat offended, closing his eyes immediately/ Self wouldn’t expect such action from Selfriend!

Doug: Aw, I’m glad I have your trust!

As Warlock stays still, Doug slowly leans in closer.

Doug, his expression extremely gentle, kisses Warlock,

after doing which, he leans back with the widest, most infatuated smile.

As Doug notices that Warlock has stayed unmoved, his appearance changes to more of a confused one.

Doug: Lock? You can open your eyes now

Warlock: Further clarification of the action’s purpose requested?

Doug: Huh? I thought… You don’t know what a kiss is?

Warlock: Negative! Self’s observations allowed self to confirm the kissaction’s double purpose as that of a greeting, as performed by Selfriendani and Selfriendrachne, or thanks as performed by damselentities in television. /extends two of his fingers to illustrate his point/ And self didn’t do anything that would request thanking.

Doug: I… uh, yeah, I guess, those can be true as well…

Doug: /grabs Warlock’s hand/ …But kissing somebody on the lips is a thing you do when you want to say… That you love them

This frame is smaller, and drawn in more cartoony style

Warlock: Observation: Selfriendbobby must love a lot of people.

Doug: No- Well- Sometimes people do it because it just feels nice as well-

Doug: /crossing his arms/ Still, the main purpose is to show affection

Warlock: /off frame/ Self understands!

Doug: /looks back at him, with an overjoyed smile/ You do?!

Warlock: /sitting up/ Affirmative!

Warlock places his hands on Doug's face, who covers them with his own. Doug’s expression returns back to that of quiet endearment.

Slam! Warlock basically smashes Doug’s face with his own!

Warlock: Kisssmoochmwah! /not as an onomatopoeia but spoken words/

Boys part, Doug looks absolutely shocked.

Warlock: /with great joy/ Self is thankful for the lesson in human custom!

Warlock: !

In the distance, Danielle is walking by, which doesn’t go unnoticed by Warlock, who energetically gets up, set on putting his new knowledge to good use.

Doug: /too absorbed with holding his bruised nose and lips to notice for now/ Ow-!

Warlock: Selfriendani! Self shall show you self’s appreciation of your person!

Doug: Lock…? Wait, you’re not going to-

/off the frame/ Slam! Smooo- Slap! Dani: Just what do you think you’re doing?!

Doug: …oh boy

Gimme your favorite webtoons please

hello thaya!! i am so fuckin glad you asked

if you want the short-but-also-long version, here's a carrd i made listing most of the comics im reading (not all--im following smth like 200 comics week to week--but most). at the bottom is linked my side acct on twitter where i post exclusively abt webcomics. my all time list, tho... let me know your fave genres or what you like to read and i can give more specific recs, but SOME OF my faves rn (i have. so many more i could list. i just dont want this post to be So long know) are

webtoon originals:

Lavender Jack - ALL TIME FAVE. vigilante / mystery comic with an absolutely gorgeous art style and really fun writing/characters, simultaneously following the eponymous lavendar jack as he exposes the city's richest criminals, as well as the detective trying to expose him. it's fun bc the mystery isnt his identity--they tell you who he is!--it's watching him act and not knowing why, unravelling that at the same time as the detective. all four of the main characters are so good and interesting (i am Obsessed with the way LJ talks), the art and coloring are lovely. its so fucking good i cannot recommend it enough

Eleceed - this comic is so silly and i love it so much. local high schooler feeds a stray cat, finds out the cat is actually The most powerful super-powered human man in the country who was injured, accidentally turned himself into a tabby, and is now lying low. the guy starts mentoring the kid, who also has powers, while keeping his location a secret. the protag is a sweetheart, i love the cat mentor, and i love all the friends the protagonist makes and how their friendships are portrayed. second fave comic of all time. i love it

Seasons of Blossom - every season of this is a different story following different sections of the main cast. first season is a fake dating plotline, the second season is a boy and his older brother's best friend finding closure over the brother's suicide from a few years before. s1 is a lot of fun and s2 is devastating and really good. it's currently on the third season which is really good. the art's really pretty and i thiink it's getting made into a kdrama?

City of Blank - the world is populated by creatues called "blanks," which will steal any face they see, slowly becoming that person by generating their bodies and gaining their memories. humans have to wear masks to keep their faces from being stolen. the main character, rex, is a half-blank. when his brother, mikah, was stabbed, he allowed rex to steal his face, and now with mikah's memories coming slowly in rex is trying to solve mikah's murder. the worldbuilding is Really fun, i like the art a lot, i think the characters are super fun, the humor is charming. i really like this comic!!

Gourmet Hound - this is a complete series! follows the main character as she tries to find the chef who made her favorite dish at her late grandmother's closed restaurant. it's a really gorgeously drawn and written comic about loss and processing grief. it's been finished for a while and is an old favorite of mine

Surviving Romance - i have no idea how to explain this comic. it's insane. i have fun reading it. do you like insane timeloop stories? try this one. this author also has a fun complete comic called The Makeup Remover i quite like

Heir's Game - i didnt know how to explain this one so here's the series description: "When a new heir to the duchy of Belluna comes of age, there is held the Heir's Game: a brutal series of duels to determine the heir's bodyguard. When Theuden, the new heir, meets Isran, a quiet duelist with a mysterious past, their love will threaten to change everything." very fun and dramatic historical romance comic w very nice art. author also has a completely zombie apocalypse comic, shootaround, which i liked

Swimming Lessons for a Mermaid - this comic is complete (and might be behind a paywall / daily pass) and so cheesy but i love it. a mermaid who can barely swim is given legs, but starts taking lessons with a competitive swimmer to try to improve her swimming ability. i really like the way interactions between friends in this comic are written, it's just really fun to read

Infinity - this is almost unbearably corny but also its a comic about fencing epee which. i love webomics and i love fencing epee i cant not be in love with it

webtoon canvas:

Dark Zone - teenagers have been going missing for years when, for the first time, one reappears. however, he doesn't come back quite right. really interesting worldbuilding and mystery, i also love the romance between the leading lads and the way friend interactions are written. very cool scifi comic

The Beast of Hadingley Hill - supernatural romance comic. leading lady goes to work for a princess who is cursed to look like a monster and is trying to find a suitor who can stand to be around her. it's pretty new and shaping up to be reallt interesting. this author has another completely webcomic, lorenna immaculate, which i also really liked. i also rlly like the art style!!

EQUALIZE - i. also dont know how to explain this one. crime/mystery comic. some of them have superpowers but its sort of an aside. i think this comic is so fun, really balances serious and silly w great chemistry between the leading lads. i cannot tell if its meant to be romance or platonic but i love them so much. the art is really neat and i especially love the bright coloring style and sense of humor

Photoaxis - a really compassionate comic about an enthusiastic spider photographer's encounters with ghosts. i like the leading characters a lot and the comic is like... it all feels like being awake and at peace at 4am. the art's also really nice, feels very much like a scrapbook

Broccoli Soup - i also dont know how to explain this comic. very interesting and surreal comic about hopping worlds and being polite. the art changes with every new world, which makes it a neat read

Nobody's Library - updates daily, follows a librarian hopping from world to world trying to find books that have gotten lost from his magic library. he's very tired and just wants to get his books and go home but keeps getting involved in criminal shenanigans. its just fun. i own a volume of this one!

Raining Knives - completed comic i think about all the time. main character, dylan, is haunted by the ghost of his murdered twin, jerry, who insists dylan solve his murder. dylan doesn't need to solve it, though--dylan did it. this is is a dramatic mystery comic and a super good read

tapas:

Lucid Memories - this comic is ongoing and behind a paywall / wait-until-free. mason loses his memories in a car wreck and has to play a gameshow in his dreams to get them back. the art is really pretty, it's also a very neat mystery of both who mason used to be and the purpose/identity/motives of the seemingly harmless/charming game show host. i really like this

hosted on their own sites:

Castoff - this is also like. my all time favorite comic. fantasy comic about vector, a boy cursed so that anyone who meets his eyes instantly becomes afraid of him. he's mistakenly arrested by a bounty hunter for treason, but when she tries to turn him in, his powers act up and the two of them are rocketed across the country. now they have to get along while she tries to bring him home (and make some friends along the way). i've been reading this comic for years and am so charmed by all the cast and the art

Sleepless Domain - very dramatic magical girl mystery/romance comic. i dont read a lot of magical girl stuff but i really love the worldbuilding in this one, plus the main characters are a lot of fun, and i love the romance between the leading ladies. really cute but also terrifying

Widdershins - i own two volumes of this one! the magic system and worldbuilding are really interesting, all of the characters are super charming. wizards in the fictional city of widdershins, one of the four magical "anchors." i LOVE the chapter hangman's knot so much, but i also love all the rest of the comic. its a really fun

The Monkees (The adventures of “the Pre-Fab Four”)

youtube

(Thanks to nosense66)

In the 60s Beatlemania was running wild all over he world. Naturally, someone would want to ride those coattails for all they’re worth. While there were a few bands that were clones of the “Fab Four”, some TV executive saw the Beatles films and decided to base a TV series on them. This wasn’t the first time someone decided to base a TV show on the Beatles...

(Thanks to Christina S.)

...but it was the first live-action one. Naturally, hiring John, Paul, George, and Ringo would be prohibitively expensive (well, maybe not hiring Ringo), so a casting call went out for musicians with acting chops and comic timing (or, at the very least, comedic actors who could play) What they found were what the critics would call the “Pre-Fab Four” (I mean, they even misspelled Monkeys the way the boys from Liverpool misspelled Beetles)...

First we have Davey Jones, who was cast in the role of “Pretty boy”. If there was going to be a romantic entanglement, odds are it would involve Davey. Davey was primarily a singer, though he also played the minor percussion instruments such as tambourines and maracas (as well as bass and drums in the studio, though not on camera)

Next up is Peter Tork, who was cast as the comic relief (and given this was a comedy show, that mainly meant he either told or was the punchline for a number of the gags) and was also the innocent babe in the woods. Peter was one of three (two on camera) guitarists, and also played banjo and keyboards.

The other on-camera guitarist was Michael Nesmith (who the writers wanted to call Michael Woolhat due to his always-present headgear, which he wore to his audition to keep the hair out of his eyes) He was cast in the role of the smarter of the four.

Mike left the show near the end of its two-season run due to wanting the band to have more creative control over their music. Don’t despair too much, as Nesmith founded the production company Pacific Arts and was one of the pioneers of the music video. Additionally, Nesmith’s mother was the inventor of Liquid Paper (more commonly known as White-Out) and he got a sizable inheritance in the 80s.

Rounding out the band was their on-screen drummer Micky Dolenz who, along with Davey, sang the majority of the band’s hits. Micky played the role of the oddball. Not that he acted any stranger than the rest of the band, but most of the visual gags involved him (including having one outfit at the beginning of a scene, only to suddenly have a new one after the camera cuts away for a second) and he tended to have a number of funny voices.

The show was mostly slapstick-style humor in the same vein as the Marx Brothers (but not nearly that highbrow) that usually involved trying to find, going to, or coming from a paying gig (during which some improbable event happens and the band is swept up in it, such as Davey thwarting an assassination attempt on foreign royalty). During the show, one of the band’s studio hits would play as the wacky on-screen action happened...

youtube

(Thanks to themonkeesrule12345)

The band had a huge following (even after it was learned that most of the songs did not feature the band playing their own instruments in the studio) Even the Beatles were fans (the two bands got together when the Monkees went to England). The band (without Mike) remained an entity for two years after the show ended (though he did rejoin the band in 1989 and sporadically appeared in studio and on tour with the band until 2016)

To “celebrate” the Monkees’ 20th anniversary, someone tried to capture lightning in a bottle twice...

youtube

(Thanks to Internet Lurker)

It failed miserably, as The New Monkees lasted all of 13 episodes (judging by the intro, I’m surprised it lasted that long!)

As always, if you would like to see an episode (of The Monkees, NOT The New Monkees!) let me know!

Marvel Roleplay Search

Hello there! I've never advertised for roleplay on Tumblr before, but a friend of mine said they'd had some luck so here I am.

I'm Spider, and I'm looking for a roleplay with anyone age 25+ set in the semi-AU Marvel universe (comics or movies, bonus points if you're familiar with the Marvel Avengers video game and can do something in that universe) over Discord.

I don't really like the terms "literate" or "semi-literate" but I prefer writers with a decent grasp of spelling and grammar, who are able to help create stories and write characters who make sense in whatever setting we choose. I typically write between 2-6 paragraphs, sometimes more or less depending on what is happening.

I'm generally fairly flexible, but the one thing that I won't budge on is separation. I'm not looking for a fake internet relationship, I just want to write a story with someone who is interested in the same fandom that I am. No self-inserts, characters should always be referred to in third person, etc. I also write in past-tense, third person POV and require that my partners do the same.

I generally write a combination of action and romance, so I do have some preferred ships. Please keep plot in mind though, that should be equally as important.

And now I'll get to the point and list my favorite ships - I have a variety of setting ideas for pretty much all of these, depending on which you're most comfortable with. Characters that I prefer to play are in bold - I don't really play male characters, but I'm also open to fxf ships. These are kind of listed in order of preference, but only very vaguely.

Natasha Romanoff x Clint Barton / Bucky Barnes / Loki / Thor / Steve Rogers / Brock Rumlow / Frank Castle / Maria Hill / Carol Danvers / Bobbie Morse / Okoye / Tony Stark

Wanda Maximoff x Stephen Strange / Loki / Thor / Scott Lang / Monica Rambeau

Jessica Jones x Matt Murdock / Steve Rogers / Tony Stark / Frank Castle

Kate Bishop x Eli Bradley / Yelena Belova / America Chavez / Shuri

Rogue x Gambit (Still new to me, but I do love them so far.)

Carol Danvers x Thor / Valkyrie

If you're interested, feel free to shoot me a message! I mostly roleplay on Discord, and I'm not very interested in other options. I've tried email/forum/google docs/etc and they just weren't as fun for me.

And if you're not interested, remember that we're all here just trying to find people with the same preferences and styles as us, and it costs nothing to scroll past.
