Was inspired by the wonderful post by @hailed-marys so me and @sam-i-am-27 got possessed by the demons and came out with this.
HC list under the cut
* Astrophage is more like a virus that either alters people, causing them to commit crimes or violent acts, or a power that supervillains are starting to use.
* Grace is still a middle school teacher who got bitten by the spider, obviously.
* Adrian is the one who stitched up the suit (the Aunt May of this universe).
* He has all the perks of a normal Spider-Man, but he's still Grace, so he's incredibly clumsy. He does have a super-strong spider sense, and that's what saves him 100% of the time, but he absolutely does not have the agility. When adrenaline kicks in, he can do anything, but otherwise he'll trip over the most ridiculous things.
* He was wearing his yellow raincoat the first time he saved someone, so now he wears it over his suit (along with his white Converse).
* The spider was discovered by SHIELD (which is undercover as a scientific research facility that Grace works for part-time). After the original test subjects (who were only able to survive the spider mutations if they possessed a specific gene) were killed in an attack, Eva delivered the spider to Grace so he could be bitten before other villains got their hands on that power. (My boy gets unwillingly turned into a savior in every universe.)
* Simon is still an ex-convict who, in exchange for his freedom, is asked by the evil company of the day to test a series of mines infected by what appears to be blood from a meteorite (which eventually turns out to be the symbiote Ellie!).
* At first, they wanted to kill each other, but they end up becoming besties.
Though not technically something that happened in the fic, the vibes between JD and Hickory were too good not to draw this. Check out @rydoesartandstuff ‘s fic Great Decisions, currently everything is hitting the fan in slow motion, drawing stuff like this is how I cope 🥲
SO excited for the after movie recovery arc, and while I certainly want protective brothers... smth tells me the transition isn't gonna be that simple when they spent so long holding a grudge against the guy. Loads of arguments incoming, I can sense it. idk how JD will deal with the fact that now his hallucinations are real
Title: Full Circle
Summary: Another form, another time. Bill Cipher was not the first one to be offered as much. And he was not the first one to accept.
Characters: Stanford Pines, Stanley Pines, the Oracle, Axolotl.
Rating: T
Here’s @michirucipher‘s commission, in exchange for her generous donation to the GF charity drive. She requested a scenario in which Ford was actually Liam’s reincarnation (won’t make sense if you haven’t read Flat Dreams, I’m afraid!), so here it is. Hope you like it!
I also incorporated @dubsdeedubs‘s Same Coin theory because honesly, I love it to death.

“Hooooly– Hey, Ford, is that gold?”
Stanford didn’t need to turn to know what Stan was talking about: his own flashlight was enough for him to see the walls and ceiling of the cave were glinting faintly beneath a thin sheet of ice. “Indeed. If you’re feeling foolish, that is.”
“Huh?”
“Iron pyrites,” he explained, letting his flashlight run over the closest wall. “Also known as Fool’s Gold. I would have expected you of all people to be able to tell it apart from real gold,” he added with a grin, and turned to shine the light straight on his brother’s face. “Is your eyesight worsening, by any chance?”
Stan made a face, lifting an arm to shield his eyes from the brightness. “Oh, har har.”
Lmaoooo this is so great, they are so real for that! Creek definitely deserved a little scare! (Hopefully I’m thinking about the right scene lmao, where Creek was running his mouth after Branch clocked him in the nose😂)
I absolutely LOVE this tho, they both look so feral and they have every right to be😂 THIS IS AMAZING THANK YOU!!!
"Stop saying 15 year olds with weird interests are cringe, they're 15" this is true however you should also stop saying adults with weird interests are cringe because who gives a shit
I want to share some wisdom from my high school art teacher.
In my AP Art class, there was a girl who was just starting to experiment with mixed media. At this point she was still playing around, trying to decide what direction she wanted to go with her portfolio. So one critique day, she brought in an abstract canvas with some rhinestone highlights and painted and real peacock feathers. She loved sparkles and peacock feathers so she thought she’d try introducing them a *little*. And after everyone had given some input, the teacher gave her his advice, VERY roughly paraphrased here:
“So here’s the thing… I do not like this style. These are just elements that do not speak to me personally, but I see that you like them, and you’re doing interesting things with them.
“My biggest critique is, I only merely *dislike* this piece. I want you to make me HATE it. Go crazy with the things that you like. Don’t hold back trying to make it palatable to people like me. Because I am NEVER going to like it. And if the audience does not like it, it should drive them crazy seeing how much YOU love it.”
Her portfolio was chock full of neon colors and glitter and rhinestones and splashes of peacock feathers and it was a delight. Our teacher despised every piece lol, but she got great marks and I think even won some awards. And more importantly, she was happy and proud of the results. Because she didn’t limit herself by trying to appeal to people who were never going to enjoy what she enjoyed.
Takeaway here: be as cringe as you want. Don’t limit yourself based on other ppl’s tastes. They’re not you, and you are incredible 💕
Do you guys ever think about how sleep-deprived Stan was to keep up with his Mr. Mystery work by day and portal work at night and considered that the twin's mannerisms sometimes overlapped Ford so hard it must have freaked him out and also that he wasn't sure if his brother was alive on the other side?
