tumblr would eat the ark animated series the fuck up if wildcard bothered to promote it at all

like oh my god there’s so much

they actually expanded on helena’s aboriginal heritage! we have so many “historical” scenes that entirely are in latin and lakota and cantonese (i think, correct me if im wrong) it’s wonderful! the importance of violence as part of resistance is a major theme! the importance and significance of found family is central! the bond between John and Alasie wounded me! Also the sheer levels of sapphic pining between helena and mei-yin jesus fucking CHRIST. That one hot gladiatrix. the action is great. THERES DINOSAURS.

It's literally so random that I'm getting back into Black Butler right now.

Teaser clip from the Night Grim pilot I'm creating!

begging the good people of Tumblr for batman content recommendations🙏🙏 im not really into the typical superhero stuff but I watched a batman movie for the first time 3 days ago and have become obsessed with the characters and their relationships

(I've already watched The Batman, Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight Rises, and the 1989 Batman. im about 3/4 of the way through the animated series and plan to watch the New Batman Adventures next but I need more. Also interested in all of the Robins and any character- focused stuff. Very interested in the comics too but cant afford to buy and feel bad about pirating art-based mediums)

Spending Christmas with my boyfriend’s family for the first time and his sister who’s hosting sent out a gift form for everyone to fill out. Some of the questions are “What are you reading/ watching these days? And “ what are your current hobbies/ obsessions?”

What the heck I’m I supposed to write for those like “ahh yes Minecraft but specifically the life series and watching hermits run decked out and Scooby Doo”

The Victorians

Ugh...not like anyone would read or be interested in this crap but anyway :

This is Victoria, Vic for short, a young sorceress (did i spell that right) who got trapped in the mortal world after having her magic staff broken, all she has now is a magic wand that can't do much coz she's a horrible witch lmao, so a group of college students, Prince, Ivy and Cyrus calling themselves 'Truth seekers' will find her in idk where maybe a haunted house or a forest? Anyway they gonna help her finding a way back home if she helps them solve mysteries and know more about legends, going thro funny and comedic moments together, eventually they gonna name themselves 'The Victorians' with Vic joining their group as the only non-human being, oh also btw they gotta hide her identity but she finds herself in stupid situations where ppl think she's weird and stuff.

I'd love to see any opinion if it's possible, that'd mean a lot for me

🦇🖤💜💚🦇

Beetlejuice just looked too cute as a . . .victorian. . . School. Boy.. . ???

Lord Hamington

Regal and powerful, Lord Hamington is ruler you do not want to mess you. Despite that cute boopable snout, he is force of nature with the capable to ruin your life in one way or another until you are screaming Lord Hamington's name. He is fear. He is death. He has cottontail.

Please make a fanfiction or fanart

what I would give to have even a shred of the r.g.g people’s power when it comes to animating crying

HM... i need to consume more vampire media 

A thank you to everyone who has supported me and my journey on making the pilot for Night Grim. I'm so excited to finally get this episode done this year and share it with everyone!

An entire rundown of EVERYTHING progressed in 2023, plus a colored version of this artwork, is available on the Patreon:

So you like imaginary fandoms...

With the recent success of Goncharov, I thought I'd make a post to mention some of the previous times this has happened in fandom, and a brief explanation and some links on how you can find works for them. I don't claim that this is a comprehensive list, it's just ones that came to me off the top of my head based on several decades of fandom involvement.

Ghost Soup Infidel Blue. Originates from the annual Yuletide exchange, specifically a post by liviapenn in 2007 that used it as a default fandom to help explain how to write 'dear author' letters. The relevant quote (meant to illustrate the kind of letter that would be too specific) was "'Bad: "I would like a Ghost Soup story where Luke makes out with Angela's clone and Angela gets mad and seduces Moira just to make Luke mad, and then Ryan and Luke duel to the death with their lightsabers and it ends up in an Angela/Angela's clone/Moira threesome. And Ryan feels really bad and flies off to Mars forever."" Consensus is that it is a sprawling space opera anime series, something like Gundam or Macross, with many sub-parts and spin-offs. Part of the dynamic of Ghost Soup 'fandom' is people arguing in the notes and comments about the continuity or quality of these various spinoffs (e.g. Purple is reputed to be bad, but some people will staunchly defend it just to be contrary.) Deliberate wank and badfic is part of the humour. You can read the Fanlore post about Ghost Soup here and find works for it and its related fandoms here

Winterblumensaat. Again, this comes out of Yuletide, specifically a nomination in 2021 for what was strongly suspected to be a nonexistent German book. The nominator's sister found it in a flea market! It very definitely was real! They couldn't provide any evidence or a photo of the book, but they promise it was definitely a real book! Despite being rejected from Yuletide nominations as not having any basis in reality, it has nevertheless had some fics written for it. The AO3 tag is merged into Original Work, so you can find them by searching in Original Work for Winterblumensaat (results here). It seems to be a moody, dark mid-century European novel, with characters named Florientina, Mailia, Schnail, and Markus. A related non-existent fandom with the same origin story is Nur die Sonne - Maria Moßer, but this has only attracted one work so far (a crossover with Winterblumensaat).

Cordelia (Movie Poster). In 2020 a movie poster for the movie Cordelia came out that inspired fandom in ways probably not intended by the movie's creators. While the actual movie Cordelia is a contemporary horror/thriller, the poster gave people the impression that it might be about Victorian femdom with pegging. Needless to say, they were disappointed by whatever was in the actual film, and made up fic based on what they thought the poster was about instead. Currently ALL works in the Cordelia (2020) tag on AO3 are actually about the poster and not the movie.

Invisible Ficathon. In 2014 an exchange called Invisible Ficathon ran, which was based around "stories that never were". Nominated "canons" had to be nonexistent fictional works referenced in another work. Examples given included "The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes - Joan Watson" (from Elementary), "The Itchy and Scratchy Show" (from The Simpsons), the books in Lucien's library in The Sandman that only exist in dreams, and so on. The collections on AO3 contain 71 works for nonexistent fandoms. Alas that this exchange only ran once, because it was a fun concept. I think with the renewed interest in Goncharov, it would be ripe for revival.
