g*le: im not sure i consider myself father material

g*le: quite good at setting relationship boundaries and speaking up abt them

g*le: never mentions wanting kids / actually has / adopts a kid unlike a plethora of other companions

g*le: shoos t*ra away at the mention of grandchildren

fandom: we just don’t have enough information on how g*le really feels about the topic of fatherhood

recoloured this old warmup to repost cause I had it on my mind.

If Clark is going to be in earth 19 (gotham by gaslight universe) (they're publishing more gbg and clark is going to be there), then listen to me listen to me, he needs to be a cowboy. Superman needs to be a cowboy in the big city. I am SOO serious about this. I am on my knees, DC, let me write for you, I would add so many themes about modern technology versus traditional knowledge and sprinkle in some anticolonialism PLEASE.

You could have a cute little Daily Planet that has to struggle against yellow journalism in a smoky little backroom & setting their own type, a la The Truth. You could have gentlemen's clubs. You could have a brutal war against unions in the streets and one lone titan of industry giving into their demands. You could have the exact same 3 batkids from the movie, there's literally nothing to improve on there. You could have Clark tear down a barbed wire fence with his bare hands, in a futile attempt to unravel colonialist ideas of private land ownership. Imagine the alien knows more about the earth, the real earth, than the knight in his city does. Imagine the American dream failing Clark, who has to go back east to the big city, failing Bruce, who lost his parents, failing everyone over and over until they decide to build something without it. In an era of rampant exploitation, what do real heroes look like?

Or you can make the justice league fight big steampunk robots ig I'm excited either way.

#all that to say ask me about the gotham by gaslight superbat friendship I've been thinking about for a LITERAL YEAR... #the original colouring on this was only the sort of ass you can achieve with a blue light filter at 2am #also I can hear you saying “why do your warmups usually look better than your final drawings Moose?” #(shh let me imagine I have a huge rapt audience) #well. I have aphantasia which makes it much harder to make things up than to draw from life #however my passion is cartooning. so I'm a little fucked #I also have a disability that sometimes makes me run a temperature when I overexert myself mentally #so drawing cartoons can make me run a literal fever #whereas drawing from life is more abt hand skill than brain skill so it doesn't fuck me up #but that's why I don't draw much anymore lol. Arranging people and items and background on a canvas is excruciating trial and error #but when you already have a pic the photographer has done some of that for you and you just need to collage preexisting images together #and once you have the elements of the picture then it's easy to retroactively construct a balanced tableau #tl:dr creativity is hard and makes CPU explode but editing is easy #that being said if a mutual wants me to draw an animal or something for them & gives me a reference I will drop everything to do it. dm me. #seriously I'm good w anything organic like plants or animals or horrible growths #hell if u do thumbnails I'll draw the full thing.

[martynsimp69]

hiii so!! here’s a little write up about the docmartyn mermaid/marine biologist enemies-to-lovers au i mentioned here, significantly later but also much longer than i intended it to be. written in collaboration with @daisycraft and @kingtheghast thank u both for letting me steal your very good thoughts and words <3

au contains themes of dehumanization and mentions of violence/injury. the tone gets a little dark at certain points, so just be warned!

— — —

the only thing really known about mer is that they’re sneaky, scarce, and very dangerous. a siren song will lure an unsuspecting ship into rocks and a crew into the water, where teeth and claws and cold, crushing depths await them. so when there’s reports of what might be a mer spotted a few miles off the coast, a team is sent out to deal with it before it causes any casualties.

it’s rare to have one this close to land. it’s even rarer still that its successfully netted, and successfully sedated. several of the crew members are heavily wounded in the process, but no one dies. and, in an unheard-of turn of events, that also includes the mer.

and you see, up until now, mer have only ever existed in vague sightings: pieces of dead ones caught in fishing nets, grainy phone camera footage, strange findings of scales and old dwellings left behind in the ocean, and the wild tales of shipwreck survivors. so this whole thing is kind of a Big Deal. for the first time ever, a live, healthy mer specimen has been found, captured, and brought in to a facility for observation and study. and the honor of leading this unprecedented study goes to doc.

(the role would be a much bigger honor if the mer wasn’t an annoying, stubborn, spiteful little bitch.)

so doc gets transferred over to the marine biology department, where a huge tank has been retrofitted into one of the bigger labs, and brought on to the study of specimen 9201223—which is a terrible name that doc isn’t going to remember, so he starts calling it “martyn” after a childhood pet fish of his.

but yeah, once it settles in and stops hiding all the time? it turns out that “martyn” is a bastard of a specimen. the lab keeps it semi-sedated as part of the safety protocol (they feed it fish laced with a numbing drug that limits its ability to vocalize, so it can’t lure any of the staff into drowning themselves or breaking it out; the sedation is a side effect) and yet it still finds the energy to cause Problems for the research team. it’s tearing up the kelp and gravel along the bottom and stuffing it into the water filters. it’s slamming into the side of the tank, scaring the shit out of the scientists. it’s trying to bite the interns fingers off during feeding time. it’s eating the rubber ball they gave it for enrichment and getting sick. it’s ruined at least three laptops and countless lab reports by splashing the personnel at every opportunity. and it seems like it’s actively trying to be uncooperative with every test they run.

working with the damn thing makes doc want to tear his hair out, but he’s also stubborn as hell so it becomes a rivalry, a battle of wills; doc hates this fucking fish, and he’s pretty sure it hates him right back.

it doesn’t particularly like anyone, of course, but he’s convinced it targets him on purpose. it starts to sit at the front of the tank by his desk whenever he’s in, swimming back and forth, staring with those freaky blue eyes, rapping on the glass when it gets too quiet just to see him jump. it hides whenever other researchers swing by, but when it’s just martyn and doc in the lab, during his late evenings working overtime? god, can’t get rid of it. can barely get any work done with it bothering him.

and then. it’s one of those late, frustrating evenings when martyn is being particularly bothersome while doc is just trying to get some paperwork done, and he’s sick of it. he’s so frustrated with martyn’s constant tapping on the tank that he rips out a page from his notebook, balls it up and whips it across the lab… and then watches as martyn darts off, going as far as his tank will let him go after the ball of paper before he eventually turns and goes back to doc. and that’s the moment doc realizes, ohhh my god it’s going stir crazy. oh my god. it just wants to play.

suddenly, doc has a new perspective on his relationship with the mer, and a lot of things start making a lot more sense. martyn’s not just banging on the glass to annoy him when he plays music, he’s trying to get him to change the song to one he prefers. the haphazard woven band of seaweed around his head might not be some sort of stress response from running into the glass too much, but an accessory, a form of personal identity. the way he stares during observations, the way his freaky eyes follow doc’s hand down the page as he writes his notes—maybe he’s observing doc and his behavior right back, trying to make sense of him.

and, yeah, martyn’s still uncooperative and bitey and impossible to deal with as ever, but doc starts feeling less like he’s working with an animal, and more like he’s working with a very stubborn person. it’s a lot to wrap his head around, and the more he notices it, the harder it becomes to ignore.

still, he and his team run their tests, gather their data, publish their findings. and the media eats that shit up… at least during the first year, when the captive mer is still novel and sensational. after a while, public interest wanes, the studies get more niche, and funding starts to slow down.

that’s when some of the faculty board members approach him with a proposal.

you see. the care and upkeep of a live mer is extraordinarily expensive. the personnel, the food, the medicine, the aquarium chemicals, the water and electricity bills, etc etc etc., it’s all getting to be a bit… much. and, frankly, they’ve already gotten plenty of research done as is. so they were considering that, well, it might be time to retire the mer program and do some final reports, and then perhaps they can move on to some other, less costly studies.

doc doesn’t realize exactly what’s being suggested until the words euthanasia and dissection are dropped. he starts protesting, stammering about the— the ethics department, and— and species preservation, and— and they can’t just—

and he’s told, quite plainly, that the thing's going to die anyways, or have you forgotten, doctor, that we don't know how to keep a species like this yet?

this tank isn't enough for it to live healthily, or very long.

we don’t even know how old they’re supposed to get in the wild.

better to get something out of it before it gets sick enough to be spoilt.

doc takes a deep breath, and tells them to get out of his lab. the board members exchange glances, and tell him they’ll give him time to think on it. doc tells them, louder, to get the fuck out of his lab.

…sitting there in that empty room, lit by the blue glow of the tank, doc feels cornered. because yes, sure, martyn is uncooperative and annoying, but also—good lord. he’s smart enough to be uncooperative. he’s smart enough to annoy him. those luminous blue eyes that stare at him through the thick glass are freaky and inhuman, but they’re intelligent. and they just want to—

he could go to the ethics board, sure. he could go plead his case and show them all the evidence, look, look, he’s not just a monster, he’s not just an animal. just spend some time with him, you’ll see. but there’s a lot of people who won’t be happy with that. a lot of very influential and rich people, people whose surnames are carved into plaques outside the building or have their companies attached to big research grant funds. and if they stop paying, doc doesn’t really have a say in what happens to martyn.

he can continue his research quietly for now, but it feels like the rest of the facility is breathing down his neck with expectations and deadlines. doesn’t help at all that the mer still doesn't want to be any sort of cooperative, either, because it’s just delaying an inevitable end that it doesn't even know is coming. the thought that he’s the only person able to protect martyn right now is fucking terrifying.

doc sets his paw on the glass tank, and the mer on the other side smiles a big, sharp smile, and mirrors him with a webbed hand.

Bro I literally obsessed with the casino quartet now plssssss tell us more

omg . actually a lot of my Thoughts about them r au based but ^_^ i think while i am here i might as well share that they're named that is bc the idea of all of them working in a casino 2gether rlly caught on!! (this was mostly brought up by thegalacticbucket and things just sorta snowballed from there .)

anyways the fun dynamic between them is that red's a dealer + deals with the finances with clown, clowns the owner of the casino and manages the casino, branzy is there as eye-candy branzy is the shill aka he gets the games rigged for him so people r more inclined to gamble more bc he's winning a lot + he encourages them, and ash is the bartender! he has arm garters and makes drinks for all of them after hours

so dats the fun history lesson 2 why the 2 fics of them atm have 2 do w/ them working at a casino and chilling w each other and why they're called casino quartet ^_^ hope u enjoyed the Lore

#mcyt #casino quartet #swagdoons #clownzy #branzypierce #mcytshipping #lsshipping #<- not really just in case people just wanna filter #but yaur ^_^ my main au of them is something i havent had time to write as of late #also Knowing my brain i change things around so much that giving info 1 week can be outdated another week #so alas. one day it'll be done and i can nerd about it! #actually i should work on it now but. academics (sadge) #so yeah ^_^ i Will au dump abt then 4ever and ever mostly bc 1) they don't exist in canon and 2) i have to feed myself a lot of the time . #but anon if ur interested @witchlightart on twt has a vampire au w/ all of them :D #purr did one of those 'one likes = one fact' abt the au things so if u wanna check it out: da world is ur oyster #but thank u for letting me Indulge once again and. i am sorry main tags for spamming today but My Brain is sick in the head #anyways tag ramble over . i find them so funny their comedic poetential alone keeps me going #mailbox.core

yeah, that being said. gouenji would relate so much to Perfect by Simple Plan. the lyrics that woke him up from the fantasy that he has only been making excuses for his father's negligence and overall damage to his mental health are:

Did you know you used to be my hero? All the days you spent with me Now seem so far away And it feels like you don't care any more

#goes in a rant about how i get socialy drained -> proceeds to gouenji posting like clockwork #blond fireboy obsession #tagging all of my gouenji posts as fireboy obsession now. bcs he kind of looks like the fireboy from fireboy and watergirl to me #-> yeah i like and hate him. but how i feel abt him is something worse... obsession. #you should filter the blond fireboy obsession tag. pls

as someone who does Not like change and has been a user on this site for 13 goddamn years i am so annoyed at the rumblings that there might be an algorithm implemented on the dash / disrupting chronological viewing of posts. i like things the way they are !!! the vast majority of your long-time user base likes things the way they are !!!! i cannot stress enough how much i Do Not want to see stuff from people i do not follow !!!!! i follow people for a reason !!!

#and i'm picky as fuck when it comes to who i follow #there are some blogs that i'd love to follow bc they seem cool and nice but they post too much of something i don't care abt #and don't tag properly for me to filter. so i don't follow them #bc i want to see the specific content i want to see #that's the beauty of tumblr and being able to curate your dash and your experience #don't take that away from us #vic.txt

sometimes i remember i take screenshots of quotes i like.

#haunted ecosystem #i need to read more poetry. i read a lot of poetry but i like it #ughhh this one server is killing my writing muse but i cant leave yet (obligation to stay until the end of an event) but its just. annoying #im reminded why i dont use twitter & why i dont engage with the twitter side of *any* fandoms. its a cesspit in a not fun way #what happened to dont like dont read. what happened to filtering things. what happened to fandom is for the fans. #sigh. i have a lot of thoughts abt this stuff. #ok thats enough unrelated rambling. its only 16:33 but im so tired man. i wanna finish writing this fic but its definitely feeling kind of #like how writing kosmon rediras was. which isnt fun. it needs a full rewrite but i dont *want* to do that for something which just. idk #thats enough of this. im tired rn

one day I'll finally talk/write abt what happens between them on scylla but I think nonstop abt what his vision mom says

#like imagine getting wizard high on a deadly concoction of illegal space drugs together #and ur will they won't they ride or die starts having hallucinations that you can also see of his mom and himself #and at one point his vision mom looks at you after berating him #and starts going on about how meeting you was finally a good influence in her son's life #and how after everything you've been through together if you try to tell him you still think he's a good man #he gets so sad and tells you he doesn't think he can agree #and you have to sit there and listen to everything his subconscious thinks abt himself and the hopeless path he's been stuck on #and listen to his subconscious thoughts bleeding into what he really thinks of you and ouggghhhhhh #and then having whatever high no filter conversations you want them to have that night #(hi this is huge for faith and max reciprocation and reconciliation after fallbrook and etc etc etc) #and I always think abt how mellowed out he is the next morning and him and faith having to finally acknowledge and talk abt EVERYTHING #especially what just happened last night #and I always think abt them walking back to the ship together finally talking to each other again #and I think abt her saying to him something abt his vision mom saying she was a good influence on him #and I think abt him glancing at her and giving a small quick smile before quietly saying it's true #the same way he said to martin on groundbreaker #when talking abt how the people of edgewater were good people doing the best with what they had #oughhhh bc he knows bc those were his own unfiltered thoughts of course he agrees #sorry I'm very exhausted I need to be emo abt something #rambling #faith and max

[yume-fanfare]

oh right the current state of yumenosaki as i've understood it is. yuzuru argued so they'd get something called "student council privileges", that some bright mind shortened to something that means "holy sword"

since next year is going to be a test to see if ES academies work, they implemented a system where students can text their complaints to the "holy sword" section on HoldHands. something like "the wallpaper is so ugly please change it", then an es representative answers "ok that will be 200000L$" and if the student can pay that money, the changes will be implemented

so tori, using his family's wealth and fine's influence as part of the big 3, paid to bring back the student council and the club activities (that were also going to be removed)

#and im p sure this holy sword thing was sorted out before the story even started #so yztr had a ''if only i had finished my explanation all of this wouldnt have happened'' moment i think. its kinda #because tori got mad at him and slapped him for being in favor of es academy #but yuzuru had been in favor of it as a means to be able to include this angle #and he had indeed achieved it before tori even got mad so yeah #but i guess he wouldve had to get mad anyways in order to accept it #something abt stages of grief #but still some of the conflict couldve been avoided if they had explained it all since the beginning for sure #anyways. i do not think this system is a good idea at all #i didnt rly understand How they filter the complaints or anything but like #not a good idea dude #enstars #mar's midnight rambles #posting this partly for my own organization ww
