Mostly a bunch of fanart and fanfic of the cartoon The Deep. Reblogs of writing and artist memes. Some AU’s as well. I’m interested in other stuff too, and plan to post original stuff as well

[shower-thoughts-last-responder]

Waking up from a nap and still having a headache is so unfair. You were supposed to save me.

the point of pink camo is that it looks cute

[bladeemaid]

no it's for concealment during combat operations in fantasy candy land type environments with bushes made of cotton candy and candy canes used as load bearing architectural elements. like the kart game in wreck it ralph. duhh.

I wonder if there are eridian teens out there making human-sona’s once grace gets well known on erid. What would they look like…

[commander-catie]

Giving their humansona cool scars in very random places, “That one on his armpit is because nobody watches him sleep and so the monster came and got him”

Dear fic writers: make memes of your fic

[abluescarfonwaston]

I've seen some frustration that Loid isnt more comforting/loving to Anya which like. In documenting every time he 'comforts' her in the first 18 chapters alone I had a Long document of evidence snipped. He performs a lot of loving actions within his own limitations as a person.

But I think his concern after he takes her to work and lets her play in the sandbox are not unfounded. 'This is a child I adopted and immediately put in a high pressure situation. I am a stranger to her and discounting everything else she's had at least 4 prior families who abandoned her on top of losing her actual parents. She is under immense psychological stress.' (which... She is. Even if she can't tell that yet. I'm sorry but seeing a vision of your adopted father dying is ROUGH)

And those are just the facts. Twilight makes up sad backstories for Bond at the drop of a hat. He's definitely sat up at night and considered everything she might have been through. (Inaccurately)

It's been six months. His own reservations aside. He and Anya are the only ones who know they were strangers before. That she's adopted. That saying "I love You" too early can be extremely stressful for a child who (rightly) has good reason to think you might abandon them like their previous families. (Even discounting her mind reading)

He has to make her call him Papa. A thing he'd probably have wanted to spit if a family had tried adopting him and Insisted on from the beginning. (Might have done anyway if it meant a warm bed and semi regular meals) She's happy to but that's a huge ask of an adopted child.

So of course he's being tender footed where he can. He's getting her gifts. Fulfilling requests. Making favorite meals. Trying to balance his mission and keeping her happy.

"Was it too early to hold hands?" Is one of their first interactions. When she pulls away from him and hides. He can't know it's because he thought about the dangers of being attacked when one handed. (Which he then DOES have to do In chapter one. It's not like that was unfounded. Or that he expressed those concerns to Her. He doesn't know she's a mind reader!)

When he's worried about having hurt her by not showing up for the bus jacking incident she tells him: buy me a treat and we're okay. He grabs that and does so.

We know Anya loves him so much. Is uncertain about how He feels about her. But even if he hugged her every day and said I love you! She'd still feel that way. Because Anya knows. Knows that Papa Does have a complicated relationship with her unlike Mama. Those words would be cheapened for her. So she doesn't ask him for them, because then she'd hear him lie.

Loid doesn't offer them because He knows. He knows she's adopted and he has prevented her from discussing that. He Knows what he's asked of her and that it's wrong. But he has to. There is no choice.

So he lets her lead as much as he can.

It is okay if some things don't make sense

I can write whatever I want

I am writing this shit for free

Sibling Ideas!!

.✦ ݁˖ The older sibling keeps acting like they’re fine because they don’t want the younger one to worry, but the younger one has been old enough to notice for years.

.✦ ݁˖ Two siblings are fighting over something stupid, like laundry or stolen food, until one of them says something too accurate and the room changes.

.✦ ݁˖ The younger sibling has become stronger than the older one, and neither of them knows how to handle the shift.

.✦ ݁˖ One sibling remembers their childhood as “we survived together,” while the other remembers it as “you left me to handle it alone.”

.✦ ݁˖ The older sibling still tries to protect the younger one, even though the younger one is now scarier than most of the people they need protection from.

.✦ ݁˖ They have a secret signal from childhood that means “get me out of here,” and years later one of them uses it across a crowded room.

.✦ ݁˖ One sibling gets praised for being responsible, and the other finally snaps because they know responsibility was forced onto them, not chosen.

.✦ ݁˖ They pretend to hate each other in public, but one insult from an outsider has them instantly united like feral cats with a shared enemy.

[isalikescherriesandblue]

@graves-yard you know why

[citrinekay]

I love getting comments on really old fics. It's like a little tap on the shoulder that says, "hey the art you create is going to last forever even if you don't think it matters anymore"

[milf-adjacent]

It has come to my attention that some of you have not actually seen the music video for Ghengis Khan by Miike Snow so I’ve taken it on myself to end your ignorance of this piece of cinema

[milf-adjacent]

The greatest cinematic experience of 2016, weren’t you watching?

[jedimulder]

oh my god? the x files-fandom was the fandom that invented the word ‘shipping’? JESUS CHRIST I LOVE Y’ALL

[einsteinstwinparadox]

Yes, back in the early days, there were two camps of fans: “Relationshippers” (people all about the MSR) and the “NoRomos” (people all about the platonic partnership.) Relationshippers was eventually shortened to “shippers.”

The X-Files popularity just happened to parallel the birth of the internet. Philes took it by storm with the creation of fan forums, chat groups, and hundreds of websites devoted to the show, characters, and the actors. :)

[ignitiondorks]

The X-Files fandom also coined the term UST (Unresolved Sexual Tension) as a fanfic descriptor. :D Fandom history is pretty neat.

[roseglass]

Sweet baby Jesus, I actually remember this and feel really old now.

[singingwordwright]

Every time I get wind of youngsters trying to push older fans out of fan spaces, I need to trot this out because there are a number of terms still in use in fandom today that were first coined on the X-Files relationshipper mailing list that I created and ran for years (this was WAAAAAYYY before social media; we posted our fic to Usenet, y’all.) That list has its own Fanlore entry.

So, for anyone who still things fandom is no place for older people: junior, we invented the fan spaces you want to exclude us from.
