Spideychelle has taken over my life now. They are my every thoughts, I am rotating them in a microwave in my mind.
I have decided No Way Home ended differently, they are happily together and I won't accept anything else.
Anyways I just really love them together they're so sweet and awkward and I just adore how they interact.
Fun fact!! Originally the background was just going to be the bi flag then I got distracted with an idea and here we are!!
I am, running out of things to say oops. I've been working on this all day tbh and I'm really proud of this!! This started out as a school doodle I did on Valentine’s Day and it quickly turned into something I was motivated to finish YIPPEE
special thanks to @missamyshay for creating the graphic!
Remember:
Originally spideychelle week, now rebranded!
Rebrand includes expansion; while works primarily focused on the MCU iteration of Peter and MJ are expected, other iterations / versions also welcome
WITH EXCEPTIONS: expansion is not erasure. Don’t be a racist fuck about MCU MJ. She is the MJ of the MCU. If you include a white MJ into the MCU version of Peter, you will be banned.
Create any kind of fan work for the prompt of each respective day
Fan work includes but is not limited to fic, fan art, video edits, moodboards, etc.
Talk Shop Tuesday: Have you ever done another fanart method for expressing your love for spideychelle/petermj? Like poetry or painting or diy merch or recreating them on The Sims?
I’ve barely done fan art, the few times I tried it was just tracing. I WANT to get better at it, I think it’s such a cool skill but I also know it’s not my strength. (And yes I know you get better by practicing but I just haven’t gotten to it!)
I HAVE finally made a video edit, after years and years and YEARS of having ideas. This was something that consumed my brain for a solid month and a half and I finally downloaded software and taught myself to do it in a few hours.
Idk if I’ll ever make another but now that I know I CAN I feel free.
obviously not saying that michelle jones has it better. i still remember the hate she got for not being the "real mj".
but what about liz - and laura harrier, her actress? i rarely see ppl appreciating her. i know she was never meant to be peter's girlfriend long term, but i rlly like liz and she deserved way better, both from canon AND from the fandom. i think it's sad that i can barely find fanfiction or even fan art of liz out there. it feels like ppl ignore or outright hate her only bc of zendaya (and this comes from someone who likes mj and spideychelle btw).
like liz still had significant screentime in homecoming, and she had an identity outside of peter, unlike most superhero love interests. and yet liz/laura simply doesn't get any love from fans. it's rlly unfortunate. it doesn't help that no way home also shits on liz.
The skintone can be corrected but how is this any different from any other PeterMJ fan art that we saw over the years ? What is that scandalous in that drawing 😅 ?
Unpopular opinion apparently but the skin tone is fine and pretty accurate to Z. She doesn’t have dark skin. Like depending on the day and time of the year she gets pretty fair skinned.
But yeah those two twitter Stans need to go touch some grass, smoke weed, suck a dick really anything but to be annoyed by *checks notes* Spideychelle fan art… something that is literally all over the internet.
#but let's not pretend that the t stans who push the pr/anti narrative aren't indirectly (or not so indirectly) trashing him

I recently did a side by side of Uncharted Tom and TCR Tom, and it’s eye-opening.
Speechless.
What this man does for his art. Mad respect but still... I want to trust that his team is on top of his health.

Do you think Z made Tom work to get her back? To me it look like it although I don’t think she did it for long. There are some in the media is surprise Z took him back
I guess you mean the fans because the media won't have had an opinion on Tomdaya 2.0 since they didn't know Tomdaya 1.0 existed. (Well, they knew but T & Z denied it and it was dropped).
First, let's establish that Z didn't make T do anything. He had other options and he rekindled his relationship with Z because he wanted to.
That said, it's still interesting to think about who did took the most initiative, and did most of the heavy-lifting.
From what we know (or assume), their reconciliation started with Tom reaching out to congratulate her on her Emmy win. Shortly after, Tom ended his relationship with Nadia.
Tomdaya 1.0 ended because (chiefly) they fought over secrecy: with Tom wanting to go public and Zendaya not being ready to. From his Cherry interview, it sounds like something Tom regretted. Looks like his relationship with Olivia, and then with Nadia showed him that dating publicly as a celebrity is seriously over-rated and that maybe his ex was onto something with her obsession over secrecy. So Tomdaya 2.0 resumed with Tom being as willing to maintain the secrecy as Zendaya. ("It wasn't that we weren't ready to talk about it. It's that we didn't want to.")

as a longtime z stan who's been having to defend her from racist t stans for as long as the word "tomdaya" was ever a thing, i have to ask if you agree with the fact that if they were to break up, things would actually be a lot more peaceful and we wouldn't have to deal with so much of the racist and misogyny that they spew at her? i just feel like unfortunately them dating makes her a topic of their conversation far too often. more often than if they were not dating. and that peace is missed.
OK it took me a while to reply this because I have so many thoughts and they are all over the place.
Lots of those thoughts are questions.
Peace is missed? Peace for who? You? You don't have to "deal" with anything. Zendaya does. It's literally her life. She gets to choose what is worth doing. I think you mean well... Of course, it's good to defend Z (and any Black celeb) against the racists on social media. It's important that their negativity doesn't become the only voice...
But you're still projecting into Zendaya to an extent I'm not comfortable.
In what world is it a good idea for Z or anyone else to make life choices based on "I need racists and misogynists to like me?" By that logic, she shouldn't have taken the MJ role. Or auditioned for Chani. Or in fact done anything that would make her popular and threaten the white-girl-on-the-top status quo. Heck, she should have stayed home in Oakland and never gone into entertainment if "peace" was the goal here.
"Peace" that thrives on oppression is literally the antithesis of the word.
Finally, Zendaya is literally biracial i.e. she exists because an interracial couple said "f--k the world" and got together. I need you to think about that, and think about what it means for you to suggest that Z should walk away from a man she clearly loves and loves/adores her in return, just to make the same people who resent her very existence happy.
Again, I think you mean well but I hope you understand why this kind of thinking is not just problematic but fundamentally dangerous.

I’ve noticed the way the gp/media write about tz is that they’re wholesome and adorable but somehow it also seems to come with a touch of infantilization? Like they’re writing about them as if they’re 19 not 25, nearly 26 . Curious if you’ve noticed the same and if so, what’s the underlying/subconscious reason?
This is so... It's like you're articulating something that was hovering at the fringe of my subconscious but I've never fully thought through? I still haven't thought this through...
@jechristine I feel this is something you will have thoughts on, whether to agree or disagree...
The only thing that keeps me from having full on panic attacks is drawing these two nerds. I think it’s safe to say that they’d both want you to go fucking vote (if you can) for Biden.
I visited my old blog, and saw my art from 4 years ago so I decided to repost my favs here ~
Come back to me - 2018
You gonna hate me but I was thinking about Peter’s family. How long it took them to realize that he is dead? Did they realize that he could disappear like other people? Did they bury empty coffin? So when I was thinking about it I draw this. Michelle during a funeral reception. She was sitting in Peter’s room and asking Peter to come back to her.
