King the silly guys, Lupin III!

(for @dying-suffering-french-stalkers)

#lupin the 3rd #Of course I had to give him a silly pose. He is the silliest guy. A tangle of limbs in a nice Italian suit. #I have such fond memories of watching the Lupin III movies with friends. #Actually...It's really touching to be able to draw fanart for the series. A homage to a special memory. #Thank you for giving me this opportunity! Seeing your icon (Goemon) has been a true treat in my notifs this last year. #Yes I was a Lupin fan this whole time! I started with part 5 so I am not a particularly old fan. #(I had a little bonus comic to go with this of the rest of the crew but I ran out of time to polish it up...perhaps another day.) #For everyone else; I highly recommend watching 'A Women Named Fuijko Mine'. Mind the content warnings though. #It is very dark but a really *really* fantastic deconstruction on the femme fatale archetype. Not to mention visually stunning. #Castle of Cagliostro is a good recommendation if you want something more lighthearted. #And with that...raffle week has come to a close! Thank you all for waiting and participating!

Bring Me Home Arc 2 Part 20: FINAL

So guess what I realized this morning. Today, November 13, 2023 is the one year anniversary of me posting my first DPxDC fic to tumblr. It was the original fill for this very fic. (Which you can find here.)

So I decided I just had to finish this arc and get it posted. This year has been amazing and so much fun. I've become a much better writer and joined a community that has brought me so much joy. I'm glad to be here and I'm glad so many of you like to read what I'm sharing.

I noticed I got a few new readers over the past week or so, so welcome to all of you! Hope you enjoy this early update!

In personal news, my nephew was born and he's adorable and I'll be meeting him tomorrow! (As soon as I'm done posting this, I'm off to make food for his mom.)

Story Summary: Tim and Danny are both neglected by parents who care more about their work than their families. They deal with this by spending too much time online and find each other playing MMORPGs. They keep up their friendship as Tim becomes Robin and Danny becomes Phantom and don't bother keeping secrets from each other.

Arc 1

Arc 2: Part 1, Previous

Word Count: 1.2k

-----

In the end, it ended up taking several hours for Danny, Sam, and Tucker to escape their families and converge on the park. In that time, Tim had called Bruce to let him know he’d be back in Gotham by tomorrow and finished most of his homework.

While he worked, Wulf and Bart were having an animated conversation in Esperanto.

Tim was pretty sure Wulf would be bringing Bart to the Ghost Zone for a tour sometime and started making plans to learn Esperanto himself and bribe Bart to get in on them.

Cassie was helping Conner sort through some of the music Sam had given him. Tim was jealous as he solved more banal trig questions. Why did school have to be so boring? He tapped his pencil on the paper in time to the beat of whatever music Conner had playing.

Tucker was the first to arrive. “Danny and Sam not here yet?” he asked as he plopped down next to Bart and Wulf.

“Nope. Haven’t heard from them, either,” said Tim. He opened his phone notifications again just to be sure, but there was nothing new.

Tucker shrugged and pulled out a stick of jerkey to munch on. “Not surprising. The Fentons will be all overprotective after the mayor was kidnapped by a ghost on live TV. And Sam’s parents are just as bad. Only they smother rather than check the weaponry.” He turned to greet Wulf in Esperanto.

An email came through on Tim’s phone and he groaned. “Our evening interview was canceled. No one wants to hear us try to defend Phantom anymore.”

Cassie cursed. “Course not. Bet the paper won’t publish our editorials either.”

Conner looked over, confused. “Won’t they? Clark works for the Daily Planet. They publish stuff like that all the time.”

Tim didn’t look up from his math as he answered, “That’s the difference between a big, Pulitzer winning publication and a small-town op-ed.”

Tucker sighed. “Well maybe someone will remember your interviews from this morning in a positive light.”

Bart rolled his eyes. “Come on, we can’t change it. So let’s move forward. Next step, make friends with more ghosts! Wulf says there’s a bunch of cool people in the Realms.”

“Realms?” asked Tim.

“It’s what he says the Ghost Zone is actually called. The Infinite Realms.”

“Huh. I’ll have to check JL databases, see if they have any information on them.”

Tucker asked something in Esperanto and Bart burst out laughing as Wulf looked on in confusion.

With Bart’s help, though, he rephrased until Wulf was able to reply. And then the three kept to Esperanto. Tim really had to find time to learn it.

Sam was the next to arrive. She grinned and sat down next to Conner. “How you liking the music?”

Conner grinned and showed her the sheets where he ranked the bands so far based on which songs he’d listened to. She then took over the speakers and searched for specific tracks to try and change his mind about some of the bands he liked the least.

Tim let his eyes close as his friends’ voices washed over him.

After some indeterminate time where he dozed between sleeping and awareness, a foot nudged his hip. Tim grumbled out what was supposed to be a, “What?” but was too mumbled to really be understood.

“Come on, Secrets. You can do better than that.”

Tim cracked an eye open to see Danny grinning down at him. He pushed himself up slightly and blinked heavily in the sunlight.

“Finally got away from your parents?” asked Tim.

Danny collapsed on the ground next to him. “Ugh, don’t remind me. They’re freaking out over everything that’s happened the last few days. Jazz and I are basically going to be on lock down until they feel confident the ghosts are gone.”

“Did you have to sneak out to get here?” asked Cassie.

Danny shook his head. “No, I told them I was going to find you guys to make sure you were all safe. You’re welcome to come back to ours tonight, by the way. Mom and Dad basically insisted on it.”

“What do you guys think?” asked Tim. “Spend one more night here at Danny’s and head out in the morning?”

Cassie sighed. “My mom’s already freaking out that I’ve been gone longer than planned. I should get back tonight.”

“I’ll stay,” offered Conner. “I’m your ride home, anyway.”

“Why don’t you come to my place, Conner,” offered Sam. “Your nails need a fresh coat after fighting today. And I need teach you about the different brands of makeup and what to look for in terms of cost, quality, and ethicality. Plus I can get you more music.”

Tim laughed when Conner looked to him. “Go for it. Have fun.”

Conner grinned. “Then yeah, let’s do it!”

Bart shrugged. “Wulf is going to go back to the Realms soon. I’ll head out after. Wally and Linda want me over for a family dinner tonight.”

“Well, looks like that’s it, then,” sighed Danny. “Been fun having other heroes around.”

Tim nudged his shoulder. “Join the Young Justice. You could join us and we'd help out whenever you wanted. Get you around people who actually appreciate what you do for them.”

But Danny was already shaking his head. “I have to stay here. And now Amity trusts heroes even less. I want to improve that, not make it worse.”

“Even if you don’t join,” declared Conner. “You’re not getting rid of us now.”

Bart nodded his agreement. “Yep. We’re gonna be stopping by all the time. You’re in the group chat.”

“Exactly,” agreed Tim. “And we’ll figure out ways to help you. Starting with how to minimize property damage. That seems to be the big thing people focus on. You can make shields, right? How big can you make them and how much power do they take?”

Danny smiled wryly. “Can’t say I’ve really tested it.”

Tim laughed. “Well, I know one thing we’re doing tonight. We’re going to go back to Nasty Burger—” Tim looked around at the whole group “—all of us. Then Cassie and Bart are going to go home. Danny and I, at least, are going to take a nap. Then we’re gonna test the current limits to Danny’s powers.”

Danny bumped their shoulders together. “You know, this is just like gaming with you all those years.”

“Yeah, well, it’s best to be thorough.”

“We’ve measured, like, his top speed and stuff,” said Tucker, pulling out a PDA. “Want to see what we’ve got so far?”

“Absolutely.” Tim took the device and looked through it. “You’ve a decent amount of information here. Maybe instead of taking a nap, I’ll help you organize it and come up with a testing plan.”

Conner flew over to him and pulled the PDA out of his hand. “Not after pulling an all-nighter you won’t. We’re going to get some food, then the two of you are going to sleep for at least four hours.”

“I’ll set Jazz on you, too,” threatened Sam. “Don’t think I won’t.”

Tim pouted as the device was given back to Tucker. And grumbled more when Conner picked him up and threw him over his shoulder.

“Come on, food time.”

“I am going to put kryptonite in your phone,” threatened Tim.

“Bingo!” shouted Cassie.

Danny laughed as he stood. “Does this mean I can join the next round?”

Tim scowled. “Traitors, all of you.”

Next

And that's the end of this Arc! Arc 3 will pick up where the original fill did. (Only this time, Tim won't be the only DC character there to help Danny.)

I'd say something like I can't believe it's only been a year, but so much has happened to me in the last twelve months that it feels like a lifetime ago, to be honest. But it's been a good year and I'm glad this community has been part of it.

Please follow the subscription post if you want updates for when I start transferring this arc to AO3 or begin posting Arc 3.

[shima-draws]

I haven't watched more than like, 8 episodes of once piece, but i just want to say that i'm loving your live(?) blogging of the episodes as you go. especially all the sanji x luffy, it's all very cute in general but also how excited you get about it is fantastic.

that's all! i just love seeing people passionately enjoy things.

AAGFGHGHF THANK YOU OMG........I feel like I've been REALLY annoying talking about Sanlu nonstop but I'm glad at least somebody is enjoying it lmao. But if there's one place where I SHOULD have no filter and feel free to talk about my ships constantly, it should be my own blog right. LOL

Essentially,

#Also live blogging is fun for me too ESPECIALLY when I can come back to it later #Like. In a couple months or years #I can scroll through my tags and relive everything I was feeling in those exact moments #Just makes for good memories <3 #Shima answers questions #Anyway thank you for letting me unashamedly rant about OP and Sanlu. I appreciate you 🥰 #Nice things #Again I'm so so so glad I got into OP. Not only is it just a fantastic show in general but like #I'm properly hyperfixated on it now and I haven't been that way towards anything in a HOT second #It's good for me bc that means I'll be writing and drawing and creating more #I've drawn more over the past month than I have over the last year. Probably. Lol #One Piece #Sanlu #Lusan

The First Promise

.｡༅:*･ﾟﾟ･ Book 1 of the STARRY WITNESS Miniseries

full series on AO3. xavier x mc. your first life together.

SYNOPSIS: You meet a boy like light itself who brightens your darkest days. He makes your last days outshine the rest of your short life by light years.

Chapter 1 Preview *:·ﾟ✧*:·ﾟ✧

Mornings in Philos, especially in the early spring season, are never really quiet. There is a buzz in the air—if one listens close enough, one feels the vibrations, life tingling all around. Evol, the energy that makes the universe and the source of your power, hangs everything in the balance. You feel it humming beneath your skin as you walk to school, waving your arm in the air. Your fingers wiggle slightly with the movement. With an absentminded awareness, you sense your Evol connecting with the air around you; your body and nature are always in harmony.

This all passes as fleeting thoughts. As soon as you pour your energy into the connection, you feel it draining just as fast. You drop your arm and make a sweeping glance around the market you pass through to get to school. The Academy’s campus lies in the heart of town, and your dorm is just under a ten-minute walk from school.

It’s a rare sunny day. Philos’ frequent storms and cloudy days finally break into a cool, spring morning. The streets begin to wake up. Older men and women set up their stalls. More cars start to pass you on the sidewalk. The humming you sense begins to amplify, ever so slowly, an exponential rise that you’ve come to recognize as second nature. As the world wakes up, so does its resonance, the one that connects your Evol to everything.

You adjust your backpack on your shoulders. Then you tuck your hands underneath your armpits, your hoodie’s thick material providing a little more warmth from the chill. It’s still cold this early in the year, but you try to make up for it by layering your uniform accordingly.

You calculate that you’re about five minutes from school when an entourage of large black cars zoom past you. Since the sidewalk is so close to the main street, the sheer speed makes gusts of wind blow toward your body. It makes your hair fly around and you instinctively hug yourself tighter. The added draft doesn’t help with the morning temperature.

Curious, you eye the line of cars and wonder who’s important enough to ride in them. They turn towards the school’s direction. You eventually follow into the same street, and the Academy’s gates greet you several feet ahead.

History teaches all of Philos’ citizens that the Academy is a stepping stone for the best and brightest students to utilize Evol in its various ways. They could study it in research labs. They could become Lightseekers and protect humanity from Wanderers and other universal threats. They could even become explorers, traversing the Deepspace tunnel into the vast corners of the universe. Discover whether or not you all are the last living organisms in this plane of existence.

None of it appeals to you. Granted, you can’t see so far ahead in the future. This is your first year at the Academy, yet even after the break, your prospects seem dim at best. Everyone tells you that you have time to figure it out. But time has never been your ally.

You subconsciously rub your chest as you approach the gates. They’re wide open for an hour before the start of the school day. In the circle drive, you see the black cars from earlier all piled up one after the other, parked in front of the main building. Outside each car, a large man stands guard, sunglasses covering their eyes and an earpiece tucked behind their ears. They scan their surroundings. You make eye contact with them, though you can’t really tell. They don’t spare you another glance.

As you approach closer, one of the car doors opens. A flash of silver hair glints in the rising sunlight then disappears just as quickly behind a pair of guards. They flank this person on all sides as they enter the school.

Strange, you think. Someone important is visiting? It’s after break, but you don’t remember hearing news of a welcome-back assembly or important announcement anytime soon. Then again, you don’t pay too much attention to what happens outside your classes. You follow a group of students entering the doors. You catch a bit of their conversation. They too wonder what the mysterious entourage’s presence means at the school.

Oh my gosh… Your last post just made me realize why shadow doesn’t use his original rocket shoes anymore. He doesn’t need them.

And I think I know who Rouge persuaded to help.

Haha! Obsoletion is a nasty beast, isn't it? Let's bring the shoes back from page 23:

... Yeah, it's safe to say it was time for an upgrade. Besides, why bother wearing rocket boots when you are the rocket? Regardless of whether or not the old things still fit. Something something modern problems, modern solutions

Rouge is pretty persuasive when she needs to be, yes. Someone has to make sure the job gets done right.

#as of the SCC timeline those shoes are like 75 year old tech lmao #mod post #thanks for the ask! i adore the reactions i'm seeing; you guys are fantastic #i'm sorry i'm being so vague about what happened to shadow #i PROMISE it's coming

Brain fluid, Great ones, Blood and parasites.

I am replaying Bloodborne and I'm noticing a few new things.

I finally get to the research hall and read the brain fluids description again (in French & English)

Greyish amoeba-shaped brain fluid. Wobbles and bounces.

Extracted from a patient whose head expanded until that was all that they were.

In the early days of the Healing Church, the Great Ones were linked to the ocean, and so the cerebral patients would imbibe water, and listen for the howl of the sea. Brain fluid writhed inside the head, the initial makings of internal eyes. (…)

So… was i supposed to found out myself they actually have parasite inside ??

So one thing you need to know is that "brain fluid" or cerebrospinal fluid (liquide céphalo-rachidien/cérébrospinal en VF) is a transparent liquid where you have your brain and inside your spine for your nerves. It doesn't quite fit what we have in game right ?

But they did add water in it, right ? It also said (but it's more clear in French that it have an amoeba (amibe) shape.

What's an amoeba ? from wikipedia : "(...) is a type of cell or unicellular organism with the ability to alter its shape (...) Amoeboid cells occur not only among the protozoa, but also in fungi, algae, and animals. Microbiologists often use the terms "amoeboid" and "amoeba" interchangeably for any organism that exhibits amoeboid movement."

It's an eucaryote (membrane, cytoplasm and nucleus like our cells) and unicellular organism that can lived without and host in the earth or water for example (unlike our cells who need to be a part of a pluricellulaires organism).

But, there's some type of amoeba who act as parasite and actually can "eat" a brain💀 (actually it attacked the nervous system & cells from the cavity between the nose and brain ) do you see where I'm trying to get ?

The water they put inside the patients head... probably had microorganism inside it. If it's not the Kos parasites then others things really similar.

It will take too long to develop everything, maybe another day so really short : we know about the Kos parasite right ? And that Kos probably had parasites who infected and transformed the inhabitants of the Hamlet.

For the blood we literally have vermin, the loran silver beasts (+ the maggots), the bloodletting beast with the giant worms and the blood dregs. (the eyes that turned blind some parasite do that in real life too)

I thought at first that what caused the beast plague was "infected cells' like cancerous cells that created more organic materials, mutated their host and boom. And not just some bacteria or viruses (that is possible too XD but also vermin are those arthropods like parasites so I was a bit confused.

But now ! If we need to have a more scientifically and realistically approach about what happened in Bloodborne (and not just boom great ones dream magic) I think it can be caused by unicellular beings who composed the great ones and mess with everyone 👍

I mean diseases and organism disfunction (of the neural system for ex) are caused on a cellular if not molecular level after all (how molecules and drugs act in the neurons and synapses of the brain is really fascinating ! But it’s not easy to learn)

Also why are great ones so close to the first protozoan cells organism for some reason ?! There's multicellular organism I guess but exist on different planes of existence (if they're not aliens or smt) but bc of the parasites blood and all (odeon is kinda blood/ what we have in the blood) so they're probably really really old forms of life you (like unicellular organisms).I guess we could say that great ones are parasites of the mind !👈 👈 (ok enough of today)

Little bonus : the first unicellular appear between 3,5 and 3,8 billion years. The multicellular appeared 2 billions years ago, our Earth have 4,5 billions years, our solar system just a bit more and the universe is 13,8 billions years old. Homo sapiens sapiens (us) is like 200 000 years old 💀 but don't worry the homininae line appeared 10 million years ago!

Hey you know we're closer to the dinosaurs who lived at the end of the cretaceous (64Ma) than between the Dino of the cretaceous and the beginning to the triassic (first Dino : 230/250 Ma)? CRAZY HMMM ??????

Anyway I do believe Bloodborne universe is actually as fantastic as dark souls or Elden Ring and not super ultra realistic like our own world. Some things just doesn't make sense realistically and maybe don't have a possible realistic and scientific explanation (the dreams, great ones etc) but it's cool to try to used sciences to explain things in the universe ! That make its own world more coherent in its own logic I believe ! (it's like you know sci fi movies, Frankenstein and all. it's not possible in real life but based on true sciences stuff).

#bloodborne #bloodborne analysis #bloodborne theory #research hall #thank you my 1y in biology at uni a few years ago! #if it's that it's crazy all the research they put into this wow! #sorry I lost it at the end XD #let's explain fantastic and unrealistic worlds with fantastic sciences from it's own universe! #is this RE4?! the parallels are making me insane

Flufftober 2023 Wrap-Up

My friends! Another October has passed, another round of Flufftober is over, and once again we couldn't be happier with the phenomenal participation 🥰

Thank you all so much for such a great year!!

🔹 Badges

You've earned them - so please feel free to use them 😘

🔹 End Survey

Once again, we would love to hear your thoughts on how this year went for you as well as determine the top five prompts of 2023 - remember that those will become next year's alt prompts, so please take a few minutes to fill out our

-> End Survey <-

There's also room for your suggestions for future prompts - next year's list is mostly done but I made sure to keep a few spaces open specifically for those wishes. So go and shape our future prompt lists 😉

🔹 Reblogs

As always, we'll keep reblogging all your entries as long as you tag and/or mention us - it just won't be as often anymore as it was during October.

Important: We noticed that many people tagged us as #flufftober 2023 (with a gap) instead of #flufftober2023 - thankfully, we noticed this early on, as it does make a difference. It might very well be why in previous years many posts got "lost". Since the event was already going strong, we didn't say anything to not confuse anyone and instead checked both tags - but we hope you'll understand that we won't be doing that in future years! We understand it might be an aesthetical thing for some of you but in that case, just make sure to mention our blog within the post so you appear in the activity log. We'll make sure to remind you in next year's main post 😊

🔹 Fluff Boosts

Fluff Boosts were "closed" during October but are open again now - so remember to send us your own events, challenges, bingos, prompt lists, etc. and we'll give you a signal boost 💖

🔹 2024

As said above, next year's list is almost done - so yes, we'll definitely be back 😁 but that's not all, as we do have something planned for you for the beginning of 2024 - so keep an eye on the blog in January when we'll reveal our surprise...

#flufftober #announcement #fluff badges #end survey #we love you all #thank you for another fantastic year

Things I’ve Learned From My Canned Bread Post

Canned bread is not just from Spongebob but is in fact a beloved (or loathed) family staple that used to be more widespread and is now mostly known in New England, and possibly also Japan and probably several European countries, according to people in the notes.

New England is NOT a state, NOR does it refer to just Massachusetts or Boston, but is in fact a colonial term referring to SIX STATES: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont. I have lived in Ohio since I was 4 and never made this connection, but in my defense, my only regular exposure to the term is “New England Patriots,” which the Bengals in my family aren’t fans of and which I took for granted as being one of the several states with New stuck on them. (Lookin’ at you, York, Hampshire, Jersey, and Mexico.) So you see, non-US people, even we can’t keep our many states straight.

There was apparently a Great Molasses Flood in 1919! Which, despite sounding hilarious, was actually INCREDIBLY HORRIFYING, according to this very descriptive video, so please brace yourself before watching it. (He does share a lovely brown bread recipe, though!) As weird uncanny catastrophes go, it’s definitely up there with the (multiple) times Cleveland caught its actual river on fire.

The sheer coincidence that I happened to randomly obtain my first-ever canned bread and make this post almost on top of the Great Molasses Flood anniversary is MINDBOGGLING, you guys, because I promise it was not on purpose. I thought it was a funny happenstance that the guy linked in the last point ALSO made a post about canned/brown bread within a week of mine, but NO, he probably ACTUALLY KNEW THE DATE and PLANNED ACCORDINGLY, meanwhile I’m operating under sheer whimsical tumblr-longposting serendipity.

This may be the most new followers I have gotten within a week in YEARS, thank you all for coming and for your nice notes and comments ❤️❤️❤️ I don’t have a ton of longposts like the Canned Bread Journey, but if you’re here for more stuff I’ve written, I have a post of my favorites pinned on my tumblr homepage, soooo (shoos you that direction until she comes up with something else entertaining besides hundreds of reblogged memes)

#river rambles #canned bread #this has been a wild ride ya'll are cool thank you #we're almost to 10k that's fantastic #Gotta add it to my list! ^^ #10 years tumblrin

What is the best fanon-made trope to appear in ironstrange fics in your opinion? I've always been weak to the idea of Stephen falling in love with Tony over those 14,000,605 futures where he saw that Tony really was Earth's Best Defender. Are there other tropes you like for this ship?

OOOOOOOOOOOO MAN that’s a tough one. I’ve read through the entirety of the ironstrange tag on Ao3, and the two are so compatible that almost all tropes just work well!!

I agree that that trope works the best for the ship, honestly! That’s why it’s so common among the fics! The reason that Stephen falling in love with Tony and recognizing Tony has Earth’s Greatest Defender works so well is because he’s genuinely one of the very very few people to acknowledge that aspect of Tony. LIKE C’MON the man goes from calling him “Stark” to “Tony” at a break neck speed. That’s love right there. It’s nice to have a ship where the two individuals truly appreciate one another for who they are.

The trope I’m really enjoying right now is Tony being the one sent back in time. Mainly because it’s something that shakes up the usual narrative we’ve all come to accept with this ship, which is that Stephen knows Tony so deeply that there isn’t really much else to learn. He just loves and appreciates him. But when the shoes on the other foot? Tony tends to self-sabotage himself a lot. With Tony having the foreknowledge of what happens in the future, does he really deserve to fall for this sarcastic, egotistical neurosurgeon? Stephen is the one with the better understanding of magic and the universe as a whole (he’s still a man and makes mistakes, but with how much he’s seen and accomplished, he’s more equipped for these situations). Tony, on the other hand, for as much as a wide perspective that he has compared to regular citizens, he’s just a man!! He’s so very human, so what is he suppose to do in a situation where he has all this foresight?

The final tropes I’ll bring up are just post-Endgame scenarios. For Tony lives AUs, seeing Stephen grapple with his decision to prioritize the universe for this one man is always a pleasure to see; especially with how much he cares about his oath to do no harm: “This is the man I’ve fallen in love with, and look at the pain my decision caused him.” Phenomenal. Usually with those fics, Tony’s just tired of his bullshit and won’t let him indulge in his self-hate for too long.

For post-Endgame fics where he doesn’t live, well, there aren’t many ghost!Tony fics, but there should be! Stephen grieving over his loss and Tony dealing with the fact that he’s conscious and “what happened to ‘I can rest now??’” Plus, if you’re gonna have a supernatural element in a fic, there isn’t a better way of doing it than with a ghost and a sorcerer!

#sorry if this formats weird idk what it’s doing tbh #honorable mention is the fics where they meet during the earlier years #I fucking LOVE seeing how people write these two egotistical men snarking at one another and then making out #they’re both so sharp and cold during earlier years and so to see them soften for one another over time 😭💕 #fantastic #THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTION sorry for the essay LMAO #doctor strange #stephen strange #ironstrange #tony stark #iron man #response
