Special Delivery, a sapphic Riddlebird comic I drew in 2021
This isn't the complete story, but I wanted to upload the first couple pages, since this was a project I really enjoyed working on. All of these pages are pg and sfw.
Hope you enjoy & please don't redistribute these elsewhere :)
we’re going back in time to summer 2022 to stop me from watching gotham… that’s right, we’re going BACK in time to summer 2022 to stop me from watching gotham
Last two episodes of Fionna and Cake dropped today on Max. Please check them out! I wish the series had been longer. It was an absolute joy and dream come true to have had a part in this series. I hope everyone enjoyed 🥰
a fan asked thomas what the deal with the drumless album was and thomas said that it was he and guy-man who went forth with releasing it, not the label. not sure why this is getting people so up in arms😭 if u truly think it's a cash grab situation then you don't have to stream it. me personally im not so quick to jump to insinuating that they're greedy or that there's some weird ulterior motive. if it is infact a money thing then good for them lmao
Ads for Sony Ericsson's Premini phone featuring Daft Punk (2004)
First image was scanned from a print ad. The others were found on a page from a photography agency website that no longer works. I still included an archived link to the page.
It is actually super thematically important that the Gumlee Subplot is, like, the Fluffiest Fluffy Coffeeshop AU in existence.
Because the whole universe-ending danger Fionnaworld faces is, like, to me it reads very much as a metaphor for the value of art and creative works that are self-indulgent?
Like, the whole Problem is that Prismo is not supposed to use his powers of Creation for his own personal enjoyment - he’s only supposed to use it to grant Ironic Wishes for others. Metaphorically, I think this is like a Creative making art for a studio or some other kind or employer, or for the sake of some specific audience or something.
And while Prismo found some creative fulfillment in his job, he also wanted to make something for himself, something private, something self-indulgent. And thus Fionnaworld was born. A personal creative project made with no other consideration but the artist’s own sense of fun and pleasure.
Which is very appropriate considering how in the real world Fionna and Cake, while it grew into more than that, it was originally just the personal lil’ creative doodles of Natasha Allegri did for fun while she was working as part of the AT Crew.
In the eyes of the Scarab, and apparently the greater cosmological laws that he enforces - the existence of Fionnaworld is an ‘abomination’. Prismo shouldn’t be allowed to use his powers of creation for anything but his designated role of creating for the sake of others.
And it seems like the resolution of the whole Scarab and Prismo plot thread is going to be on some level a reinforcement of the value and importance of creative projects - or whole universes - that are born out of self-indulgence and a desire to have fun and nothing more. You know, maybe it's not the worst thing in the world for Prismo to do something for fun, Fionnaworld clearly grew into something more than just God's self-indulgent doodles... something like that...
So it seems only appropriate that our main representation of Fionnaworld once the plot kicks into gear, the thing that gives the viewers a face and a personal angle to the unfathomably monumental task of saving a whole universe - is a Fluff-tastic Coffeeshop AU.
In many ways the icon of silly indulgent fiction that exists just for personal pleasure.
Especially as it contrasts against the generally much darker and grimmer ‘Authorized Universes’ we’ve seen.
Of course, not everyone creating silly fanfics for just their own sake is gonna create peaceful low-conflict Modern AUs. I bet there’s tons of AT fans creating fanstuff for their own sakes that are going to make stuff that’s just as heavy and dark as Vampireworld or even Extinctworld. Sometimes self-indulgence looks like angst and pain.
Buuuutt, the Fluff-heavy fanfiction and Coffeeshop AUs are still associated with wish-fulfillment and self-indulgent fiction in a way that really feels thematically important.
