“Just you and me, Shirley”

If you haven’t seen those s2 photos of these outfits👀Go do that right now.

A quick sketch based on @ahyperactivehero ‘s Greatest in the League. This fic lives rent free in my brain 24/7.

Spoilers for ch.39 below!

I’m trying to be okay with more rough sketches to actually explore more ideas vs. getting stuck in polishing all of them and having fewer overall. It is..challenging. Rendering looms over me like a curse.

[shamelessly-obsessed]

I can’t stop

Also pride flags colour variation 👀😏

Was too obsessed with the reference pic not to draw it

[ahyperactivehero]

there is something ironic about doctor who quietly shutting down when there has been so much interest in sci-fi and space in general lately

pov: grace tries to explore outside the biodome, only to find himself in a first person horror game in a foggy pitch dark hellscape with many alien rock spiders, scuttling in and out of the darkness. at least they're all friendly!

I kind of miss the impulsivity that certain spaces used to allow. oh you want a hair cut today? hairdresser in the corner can fit you in before her 2 o’clock. tattoo of a cobra… sure leg or arm? even concerts, back when you could go to the box office thirty mins before any show. not saying these things don’t exist at all, but everything feels booked five months in advance and 10x more expensive

my beautiful wife, severe thunderstorm warning, is texting me 😌😚😍😍

Those BTS photos of James in the priest robes really gave me some ideas

I am too afraid to post the more…suggestive version…but know it exists and fill in the blanks.

Small Fandom Summer 2026!

For the fourth year in a row now, it's time for Small Fandom Summer! Join me for Small Fandom Summer! It's real easy to play:

Make a fanwork for something that has fewer than 1000 English-language works on AO3

Post it to AO3

And then you've done it! You've made a thing and you've diversified the fandom ecosystem! You're basically a hero.

Q: The fandom I want to create for has more than 1000 English-language works on AO3, but the specific pairing I want to write for has fewer than that. Does that count? A: Yes! Q: What if it has more than 1000 English-language works on AO3, but, like, just barely? A: Okay! Q: What if it actually has a lot more than 1000 English-language works on AO3, but it still feels small? A: Sure! Q: What if I don't want to post it to AO3? What if I don't even have an AO3 account? Can I post it somewhere else? A: Wherever! Q: What if-- A: Just do a thing, friend. Make a thing. Share the thing. This is not meant to be restrictive; this is meant to be inspirational. Create the fanworks you want to see in the world. Make a stranger happy by appealing to their niche interests. Bring joy.

And if you want to give yourself some silly little Steam-like achievement badges to commemorate your accomplishments, well, you're in luck! I've made a bunch of them right here! You can grab the ones that apply to your work and paste them wherever you like and feel good about what you've done. Here's a few of my favorites:

So you see? This is meant to be silly and fun.

There's nowhere to sign up. There's nothing to commit to. There's zero pressure. You just do it if you do it, and don't if you don't. But if you do want to play (yay!), tag your stuff with #small fandom summer so we can all swoop in and appreciate everyone else's efforts.

Here's to creativity!

Dead Boy Detectives is a stunning series

[ahyperactivehero]

obsessed with dungeon crawler carl lately, so enjoy these text posts 1/?

[ahyperactivehero]

sorry to everyone I’m infecting with dungeon crawler carl. once you start to notice him around he doesn’t really leave <3

project hail mary is a touching and poignant film that leaves you asking questions about humanity like, "wow what if all mainstream media was genuinely good" and "what if book adaptions actually gave a shit about the book in question" and "what if studios hired actors that could actually act, and then let them get a lil wacky with it"

Happy Pride Month!

some lil sketches. the horrors persist even in a vaguely jeeves-and-wooster-inspired au, but along with the horrors are hugs
