You did that on purpose.
Look at this unrepentant little face! Just moments earlier:
Me: Let's clean your ears up so you don't have issues. [places ear flush drops in both ears and gives ear massage]
River: Nooo! It feels weird!!! [violent ear flapping and angry meeps]
Me: [feels something wet all over the bottom half of my face and neck] Eeew, River! That was not very cash money of you. Now I need a shower and possibly go boil my skin.
River: That's what you get!!!
Me: Yeah, well joke's on you--I'm cleaning your face after I'm done with my shower.
So, we learned a lesson today about cleaning bunny ears and the need to get the heck out of Dodge before the ear flapping starts. Good to know!
Thanks for visiting the blog and we hope you all have a great weekend! Stay safe out there and we'll be back with more bunny cuteness on Monday.

B, F, N, R, T, U, and V for the fanfic asks 👀💕
B: Any of your stories inspired by personal experience?
Ugh. Ain't Nothing Funny When a Soldier Cries has some personal experiences in it, as does Girl Crush. One was more fun to write than the other.
F: Share a snippet from one of your favorite dialogue scenes you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.
You're making me think. Ugh. Let's see... From "You Rescued Me From Reachin' for the Bottom"
'Alex dabbed and wiped with a gentle touch until Reggie’s face was clean. Tossing the dishcloth into the sink, he stepped to the freezer for a bag of peas. When he came back, he gently laid the frozen peas against Reggie’s eye. Using his free hand to grab Reggie’s hand, he squeezed softly, then said, “Tell me who did this to you.”'
It's just...ugh, words are hard. I have a really soft spot for protective friends, and Alex is so often portrayed as the soft, sensible, voice of reason, while the other guys are the "kick the shit out of them" sort. I love the way I characterized Alex in this fic, as the one who will protect Reggie at any cost.
N: Is there a fic you wish someone else would write (or finish) for you?
I would absolutely love to have someone finish my JATP Beauty and the Beast AU! But I have to be honest...they would have to follow at least my idea for it, even if they didn't write it exactly the way I would. It has some....twists planned, and it would definitely be different from anything else I've ever read.
R: Are there any writers (fanfic or otherwise) you consider an influence?
You! And Faith. <3 I literally wouldn't write at all if it weren't for the two of you, and your writing...gosh, both of you can move me to tears with a sentence. Sometimes even when it isn't supposed to be sad.
T: Any fandom tropes you can’t stand?
I think I answered that earlier? But basically, not really. Not a huge fan of major character death, but over all, if it's well-written, I'll try it out.
U: Share three of your favorite fic writers and why you like them so much.
Oh, wow. Only three? Well, there's you, obviously. The pictures you paint with your words are just...heart wrenching, in all the best ways. I truly can't remember the last one of your fics that I read where I didn't cry at least once, and usually more.
Lomonaaeren is another. They write in the HP fandom. Sometimes I laugh, sometimes I cry, they have convinced me to try new ships...I have never read one of their works that I didn't end up loving! I'm subscribed to get notices for absolutely everything they post.
And I can't choose a third, because there are SO. DAMN. MANY talented writers out there!!
V: If you could write the sequel (or prequel) to any fic out there not written by yourself, which would you choose?
Oh, I was afraid someone would ask this one.
Writing a prequel for The Strength of Gold could be really interesting! Finding out what happened to get the guys to the point they are in that fic....yeah. But that author is WAY out of my league, so I wouldn't even approach them!

my top bit of advice going into the new year: compliment people. especially strangers. literally everyone you interact with if you can. when you buy coffee in the morning compliment the barista's tattoos. when you're chatting with a coworker tell them that by the way you like their outfit. always find something they've chosen to do on purpose. nail polish, jewellery, tattoos, hair colour/style, statement accessory, outfit, etc are all good bets. things people hope will be noticed. things that aren't too personal so it doesn't make them uncomfortable (eg probably not their physical features). i've gotten into the habit of scanning everyone i talk to for something about them that i think is cool so i can tell them. it's a great habit because it makes me notice people and realise just how many neat little details there are in people's presentation of themselves that might pass me by if i wasn't paying attention. and it brings out so much joy. you'd be surprised how much it disarms people to receive an unexpected compliment from someone they don't know. it is the most sincere smile you will see all day long. it feels nice to make people happy but it also means you win the social interaction. establish dominance by complimenting a stranger's earrings and disappearing into the fog

(who's gonna save you, hero?)
i love whump fics where tim ends up on the ropes alone and doesn't know if anyone's gonna reach him in time
i really really love leonardo romero's inks and jordie bellaire's colors from the "i am the gun" mini telling the zur-en arrh backstory (in batman issues #128-130), so this is another loose style study
i had this frame in mind specifically, altho i couldnt quite commit to the hard inks
ALSO the concept was loosely based off the issues in legacy ('tec (1940) #698-99) where tim goes undercover and then gets nabbed by lockup and his comm cuts off in the middle of telling nightwing what's going on, which also gave us this great (but misleading) cover
