A little break from my favorite sleepy boy to show some progress on my Teen Titans inspired Raven cosplay!
Belt is made from metal chain, lobster clasp, foam, and glass frames. All held together with super glue gel.
Bodysuit was purchased on Amazon, altered by me and the gems for the hands will be clipped on to avoid breaking the glass and damaging the glue.
Stay spooky!

Rating Spooky
Halloween Day 13
I sat looking out my bedroom window looking across the fields. This place had been set up overnight as I knew there hadn't been anything there when I went to bed last night. Now the field was full of little caravans and trailers, string lights caused the place to have a strange unearthly orange glow, and in the centre of it all this tall red and gold striped tent with a flag on top. The whole place just seemed too strange with this foreboding look to it. "Samuel!" Toots smiled as she ran into my room "Hey," I smiled giving her a cuddle "What's up?" "Will you take me to the autumn circus samuel? pretty please" "You really wanna go?" "Yeah!" "Alright, get your coat we'll get going" I told her,
she happily ran off, so I got my shoes and my jacket and headed downstairs where my mother met me slipping me some money for popcorn and for tickets, I thanked her and as soon as toots came down we headed out together leaving the house and heading down the dusty paths to the entrance set up for the autumn circus. I made sure to keep my little sister close as I bought our tickets and we headed in through the tall wooden gates with a dirty circus lettering above us. And we joined a group of others from town here tonight and a man in a red and black suit with a skull-topped cane. "Come one, Come all! The Fantabulous Autumn Circus" He said "Follow me through to our great show" He explained We were filed down the path with counters on each side, for toffee apples, popcorn, candy floss, ginger ale and other such items Each booth had an older man dressed as a clown with half-melting face paint many of them rather eager to speak to you almost jumping out at you so much so toots often got spooked.
As we walked around the tent we arrived at the freakshow and I made sure to put toots behind me as we walked past these tall cages that contained the freaks many of them not exactly happy to see us. "Behold our marvellous freaks," He explained The breaded woman, the frog man, the two-headed dog, the lobster Boy, the strong man, the Siamese twins. Each of them begrudgingly showed off as the ringmaster reached them. I did my best to rush us though as Toots was getting scared, but at the same time, I didn't want to be rude as they were still people.
"Now my personal favourite" The ringmaster smiled as we reached this woman in a long black robe I stopped short for a moment as freaked out and scared as I was I couldn't help but blush, she was so beautiful. For a moment I was confused as to why exactly she was even here. "Go on then," he told her tapping the metal cage she rolled her eyes unhappy putting out her cigarette she got up turned away and slipped off her robe revealing she was wearing only a small black cotton dress. And her skin was covered in tattoos many gasped at her but even so, I still thought she was beautiful. I smiled at her as she sat down and she briefly smiled at me before we continued and filled into the stands to watch the circus. I bought her some candy floss and I got some popcorn as we watched the gymnasts, animal tamers and other such circus business it was enjoyable but I couldn't help this strange feeling about the place it was nearing the end of the show the crowd applauded the clowns when I felt someone grab my hand and pull me from my seat.
I looked and saw it was the tattoed girl "Come on!" she said trying to tug my hand "what's going on?" I asked "You have to go" she says "Now the show's almost over" she says urgency in her voice I grabbed toots arm and followed this girl, we left the tent and she tugged us away towards the gate to leave but I stopped my body frozen as hundreds of blood-curdling screams erupted from the tent I quickly put my hands over Toot's ears so she wouldn't hear and get scared "You hold her" I told the girl before rushing back towards the tent "No don't!" she warns I pulled open the tent we just left and found it utterly empty, the stands empty, the stage had no performers just this unearthly light "Where… where did they go?" "We have to go!" "Where are they?" "You don't wanna know" she says "Come on" she told me helping Toots and I to the gate "Go, go home. Don't come back it's not safe" she said "What about you?" "Don't worry about me, it's too late for me" she says I didn't like leaving her but I took Toots back home she happily headed in telling our mother about all the fun she had but when I looked back to the circus and found the tent was gone.

💘🎄 🍝🧶🎧💯
💘 — what and/or who do you consider near and dear to you?
First I wanna say my family. I love my parents so much. I also wanna say my friends because GOD my friends both internet and irl have helped me, supported me, and gotten me through some hard times. And along with my family and friends…honestly…my stuffed animals. I’ve had a lot of them for years (so long that some are old enough to be considered legal adults), and they help a lot with my anxiety. They’ve even inspired some of my ocs. Also I’ve learned if you stick something in my arms long enough, I will bond with it and that’s how the massive stuffie collection started.
🎄 — favorite holiday(s)?
I gotta go with Halloween. I love the spooky season. 🎃👻🧛🏻‍♀️🧟‍♀️🧙‍♀️
🍝 — favorite food(s)?
Oh boy…uh…the first thing that comes to mind is soup! I love matzo ball soup and chicken noodle soup. Tomato soup and lobster bisque too! And pho! Another fav of mine is kugel (specifically potato, broccoli, or spinach). It’s my weakness. I can and will eat an entire kugel if not stopped.
🧶 — any non-writing hobbies/interests?
I like to draw, read, watch tv, do live reads, and when my computer and software decide to cooperate edit videos!
🎧 — do you write while listening to music/podcasts/videos/etc, or do you need total silence?
I actually got this question a while ago! I’m sad to report, my answer hasn’t really changed.
💯 — share three random facts about yourself that your mutuals may not know about you.
1.) I’m ambidextrous. 2.) I’m acrophobic but one of my dream roles involves being in the air. 3.) I once met The Count from Sesame Street!

SPOOKY’S 100 FOLLOWER SHOUTOUT!
Okay for real this is the fastest growing blog I’ve ever had hehehe. Never expected Grundy to get this popular this quickly!
Freaking love this zombaby and I’m so glad y’all love him too! As promised, gonna shout out some fantabulous bloggos that helped get Grundy to where he is today. XD
@akasupergirl/ @azombieme (I FREAKING ADORE GRUNDY AND KARA AND LIV. I swear Grundy’s loyal to Kara like he was to Shayera and Jade and Liv is totally his baby sister and is gonna protect her from.....everything. :P
Even pigeons, because they’re legion.)
@thecatgoddessbast (A blast from the past! Glad to see you again after I rampaged and caused chaos as a certain deranged pincushion of a mushroom way back in the time before present. XD
Now I get to do that as a zombie. :D Win/win!)
Tumblr media
@starcityvigilante (OLLIE. FFFFFF-okay for real I’m HYPED to plot wacky ideas with you. Grundy has a MASSIVE grudge against Green Arrow and I’m like......*push these two together* you both get along right now.)
@folcire (We literally just started talking and I’m loving your Ivy already! Can’t wait to see how Grundy grows to see her the more he talks to her because they’re both sassy plant people that way. XD)
@themartlans (FFFFFF-J’ONN. Everyone’s favorite green uncle :D I freaking adore him and I HATE how the most he ever interacted with Grundy was him being tossed into the bay. >_<
They really need to talk more, and MAN! That Injustice verse of yours is SICK. Definitely hyped for making Grundy into an insurgent and a good zombie instead of Supes’ lapdog.
Tumblr media
( Look at this face....LOOK AT IT.)
@blackwingsbluedings (One of the best Dick Grayson’s out there and definitely loving seeing Grundy be less smash and more “......hug?” They both need hugs I swear.)
@marvelousdamsels (We haven’t talked much but I adore your muses and I just hope Grundy doesn’t come off as too weird or clingy.......wait.......that’s......literally Grundy.....
:D)
@theirfirstexperiment (GRUNDY ON A RAMPAGE YOOOOOO! Better run fast. XD)
@amazonexile/ @gothamprens/ @captainstevertrevor ( Freaking love your muses and I love seeing Diana and Bruce actually WANT to help Grundy. It’s too easy just beating on Grundy and I love seeing them actually bother to try to get to the gentler side of the Hulk’s crazy cousin. XD)
@justiceebound / @nighttfight ( *slams fist on the table* YOU ARE AWESOME! Your Shayera is awesome, your Bruce is a national treasure and I can’t wait to throw Grundy at Supes and Diana, because these guys need a big reconciliation thing after all the chaos from literal years of slugging it out.
And I LOVE it. >:D)
@ofamazonia 
@theamazondiana   (Both of you are AWESOME Wonder Women and MAN I love plotting ideas. I’m tired of seeing Diana being turned into too much of a warrior while negating her role as a peace-maker and y’all NAIL her kindness and wisdom and need to give everyone a chance. Freaking LOVE IT!)
@raininginkyxto (LOL I always love imagining Grundy in Marvel and now poor Weasel is kind of stuck with him. XD Man, if the Hulks meet Grundy then that poor bar is going to really get smashed.....)
Tumblr media
@notatomo (GIANT. Man I loved that movie as a kid and I LOVE the subsequent giant robot and tiny kid works inspired from it (example being the CRIMINALLY under-appreciated Sentinel series by UDON.) Can’t wait to see what happens when Grundy talks more to someone bigger than him. XD)
@liminalstctic (GRUNDY HEARTS TINY GIRL. XD Yeah he’s trying his hardest to help her. ;A;)
@dolceclavier
@gobsnacc
@adrenalinesaint
@ninelivesruined
@yellowskinnedwackyman  (CREEPER! I’ll forever ADORE these two butts because they’re team Tree Lobsters.)
Tumblr media
@collidingxworlds/ @thecursedhellblazer (I. Love. Your. Constantine. I swear I have so much fun writing Grundy trying to get drunk (and failing) and learning to cuss up a storm while still being a mad lad ready to throw down with mega-zombies to protect his tiny friend.
DC, make this friendship canon or so help me Grodd...)
@chaosmultiverse (I love your Klarion so much! He’s so much fun! XD And Teekl for the epic win!)
@raichoose (Herbert West and Solomon Grundy? THAT aIN’T GOOD! D:>)
@gctjinxd (Freaking LOVE your Jinx! LOL how she manipulates Freeze and how Grundy isn’t even REMOTELY phased by her powers. Like he is TOUGH. Even bad luck won’t stop him.)
@killcrcroc (BIG BAD KILLER CROC! I love your Waylon and I adore how he has a collection of watches and that awesome suit. XD Croc definitely deserves more love since he’s much smarter than he looks, and tough enough to even get Grundy to back down in a serious fight.)
@babydxhl (Baby Doll is criminally underappreciated and I love how she’s the opposite to Grundy. She looks child-like but is very crafty, mature and knows how to get what she wants, while Grundy is physically strong and big enough to bully his way into anything he wants, but is very simple and child-like and would rather watch the birds. XD)
@theednygma (An awesome Ed Nygma and I love how Grundy is so unsure of everything yet still goes along for the ride as a support. XD)
@sleightlyoffhand (BUNNY MAN! Okay the idea of Josiah monching on carrots in Grundy’s pocket makes me smile so much. XD)
@thanagrian (BIRD-NOSE! Honestly every time I think of Grundy and Shayera I get the feels big time. These two definitely deserved more than just two episides to give them a unique friendship.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(I love that STAR Labs mission so much in Injustice. XD)
@the-arkham-librarian ( I love Eliza so much! She’s crafty, stubborn, sweet and kind and just cares about everyone so much when few don’t. Grundy grew so attached to her I swear she’s like his little sister at this point. XD And he’s totes the best uncle along with Eddie.)

Look at these bunch of a-holes. Yeah they’re a family and even if they’re bad.....they’ve got each other. And that’s what counts. C:)
@powerhours/ @lastofmars (Green dad? Green dad. I love your J’onn so much and I’m like *throws Grundy at green dad* Here give this disaster some love. XD)
@gothamdad (YET ANOTHER AWESOME BATMAN. :D)
@redsleuthed (TIM! I love Tim and I swear these two should talk more because Grundy doesn’t WANT to fight and I think just letting someone hear him out would help him immensely.
Plus that stuff with Freeze? Poetic cinema.)
@themusespace
@12thlevel​ (On this blog we stan socially awkward green boi with angery grandpa genius mastermind. XD)
@pluckyingenue
@seekthedarknesswithin (SHADE! I love Shade in Justice League where he constantly throws Shade at everyone so you can imagine how excited I was to see Shade on Tumblr! We haven’t done much but man.....even Grundy was excited to see an old friend from the Injustice Society/ Injustice Gang.)

@blizzardmuses (I LOVE YOUR MUSES OMG. Your Batgirl?????? I ADORE HER. I love Freeze as a member of the Birds of Prey and I love tossing Grundy at your muses because the guy needs love and an excuse to smash.....and I really love both lol.)
@starfirechan (You’re Starfire is so freaking CUTE! I love how she and Grundy get along so well since they’re kind of two misfits that aren’t very well-versed in city life. XD)
@gotham-crusader/ @maximummuses (One of the best Batman and Damian Wayne RPers out there! I have a lot of fun with our threads and even if they fizzle out there is so much heart to them that they’re some of my absolute favorites no matter what muse I put on. C:)
@teufortsquidman (PRAWN! Okay, a giant mega-zombie and an Eldritch abomination? Yeah they’re gonna be good pals lol. XD)
@tragedybcrn (Hands down one of the BEST Batman RPers I’ve talked to and plotted with. I love how Bruce helps Freeze and even Grundy try to be better than just crooks. Grundy though has had so many bad experiences that he can’t trust anyone anymore unless there is some SERIOUS help. But he’ll learn to at least try to trust Batman.....because Batman was genuinely nice to him.)
@krygothite ( I freaking LOVE your Bane! We haven’t written much but FFFFF0yeah he’s epic. XD And Grundy is kind of nervous about bringing Bane to Slaughter Swamp because Bane is tough but not kaiju-sized gators and snakes tough....

To Keep It Short: This will probably be a story that a lot of readers love... unfortunately, I am not that reader (A TL;DR can be found at the bottom of this review!)
Summary: Jake Livingston is one of the only Black kids at St. Clair Prep. It’s hard enough fitting in but to make matters worse and definitely more complicated, Jake can see the dead. In fact, he sees the dead around him all the time. Most are harmless. Stuck in their death loops as they relive their deaths over and over again, they don’t interact often with people.
But then Jake meets Sawyer. A troubled teen who shot and killed six kids at a local high school last year before taking his own life. Now a powerful, vengeful ghost, he has plans for his afterlife–plans that include Jake. Suddenly, everything Jake knows about ghosts and the rules to life itself go out the window as Sawyer begins haunting him and bodies turn up in his neighborhood.
High school soon becomes a survival game–one Jake is not sure he’s going to win.
THE BOOK:
CWs: graphic imagery; death/murder; suicidal ideation and attempts; mass shootings/gun violence; child abuse, mental and physical; attempted sexual assault; racism, bullying, and homophobia Release date: 7/13/2021 Publisher: Putnam (Penguin Teen) Page Count: 308 Genre: YA Paranormal horror Is It Queer: Yep! Main MLM romance
THE REVIEW:
I had really high hopes for this one. I love a classic paranormal slice-of-life novel, and all the better when it's starring a queer Black boy. Unfortunately, this book just... wasn't great. The Taking of Jake Livingston follows Jake as he navigates being not only gay and one of the only Black kids at his private school, but also being a medium. The ability to see the souls in the After isn't new for him, but he's always tried to ignore it up until now. Suddenly, Jake's already stressful life is made worse when he finds himself haunted by the ghost of Sawyer Doon--the boy who shot up his high school before taking his own life. Now, it's not just Jake's life on the line, but his friends, his families, his crush--and even the ghosts of the kids whose lives Sawyer took in the shooting. Some positives! The main plot was pretty fast-paced and therefore did a pretty good job of keeping you engaged. The ghost-world was unique and intriguing, and I enjoyed the concept of using "ecto-mist" as a weapon. There were some fantastically gory and creepy imagery, some undeniably spooky, hair-raising scenes, and the author certainly succeeds at unsettling the reader, especially within Sawyer's (the shooter) scenes. Like, objectively, this is a fun book. Unfortunately, these things couldn't really compete with the fact that this book reads much like low-budget teen superhero movie. There are so many strange lines, metaphors, and similes thrown into intense life-or-death scenes that gave me straight up whiplash (I will never forget "my neck cracked like a crisp lobster"). The dialogue typically felt distant and unnatural, and the pace at which relationships developed was much the same. Perhaps the biggest issue to be raised is that this plot and its characters are just seriously lacking in foundation. The characters, although they definitely stand apart from one another, are notably underdeveloped and flat, including Jake. Each character felt like they were made of one (1) character trait. For Jake's friend group, for example: the anxious one, the confident one, and the adventurous one. You never really learn anything about any of their hopes, their dreams, how they feel about... anything. The scenes felt slapped on top of one another with flimsy bridges to connect them. Often, emotional repercussions didn't seem to carry over--Jake has his life threatened by a ghost, he runs downstairs to witness a school fight, and he isn't even shaken by the former. The plot twists were unpredictable not because they were clever, but because they were almost completely baseless and a little unhinged. Most plot points occurred because they could, not because they made sense. Like, suddenly, Jake can merge with another ghost to become more powerful (similarly to Sawyer), I guess? And to be fair, this is a super cool idea--it just needed more of an explanatory build-up to it. Why can he do this? Can all mediums do this? How did he do it without even knowing it was possible? There are a lot of other questions I have for this world pertaining to just about everything--some of which aren't necessarily questions that need to be answered, but I felt should have at least been offered. The romance was pretty cute, and although a little cringe-worthy at times (as high school romances oft tend to be), it definitely made me smile. It's also just nice to see a queer romance between Black boys in YA for once. In the end, this just wasn't my cup of tea, but it does have its moments. I can easily see this appealing more to a different audience, so if it sounds like something you might enjoy, or if you're just looking for a fun, fast-paced read without any life-changing revelations, consider checking it out!
★★✭✰✰/5 STARS (2.5)
TOO LONG; DIDN’T READ:
Pros: A cute romance, fast-paced, unique and intriguing, gory, and all around just an objectively fun time
Cons: Flat, one dimensional characters, baseless plot twists ("I can so I will"), reads like a low-budget superhero film, etc, etc.

See I love snakes with my whole heart, and spiders are okay if they're not on me, but lobsters really freak me out. There's just something about all their little legs that is just like o.O Long legged crabs too, but the little boys are on thin fucking ice
i think land snakes are rly cute, water snakes are so scary tho. the fact that they can swim without limbs means they are without god. it doesn't help that i'm just afraid of lakes in general so the fact that there's snakes in them is just unfair.
lobsters and crabs rly are like the bugs of the sea. i wouldn't want one touching me definitely. i can't decide whether i'd want a lobster vs a bug touching me. guess it depends on the bug. you're right, they're pretty spooky

Songs for Halloween Parties
Halloween parties offer the most wide open subject possibilities of any type of celebration. Halloween is the one day of the year that lets you be any living thing or dead thing, any occupation, any human or non-human and any personality type. You can be a cartoon character if you like.
