I like to yap and show art. Currently hyperfixated on DC THROUGH CARTOONS! I know a lot of my stuff won't line up with comics because I don't read them 😭

[imheretoreadafic]

DROP ME AN ASK WITH YOUR FAVORITE CHARACTER'S NAME AND I WILL DRAW THEM DOING SOMETHING ANTI-ICE

This is generally a DC-page but I will do literally any character from any fandom i am so pissed at the government right now.

Be as vague or as specific on what character(s) and what they're doing/saying. Just be warned that I not always be able to deliver 100% because I'm still a beginner artist.

Delivery time will depend on my study schedule and whether my CFS wants to fuck me up or not that day.

Reformed Thad Thwane but in a wolf-dog way. As in, he's just tamed enough to make you think he's chill... then he howls. Ykwm?

Like,

Bart showing off his game collection to Thad: "Oh man! This was my first shooter!"

Thad: "Yeah I know."

Bart: "Oh, I showed it to you before?"

Thad, with way too casual of an energy: "No. The algorithm I had set up to more effectively study your life accidentally flagged it as training due to the guns."

Bart: "Oh."

Or

Max, catching a glimpse of Thad beating a punching bag with a dangerous level of energy and promptly turning back the way he came: "Nope. Not touching that."

[imheretoreadafic]

The reason I can't think of a Helen example of this is because I don't think she'd ever be able to forget - at least, not in the way Bart and Max do.

I think she would notice when they go shopping that he can find everything insanely fast because he mentally maps out every single building he enters in extreme detail. I think she would notice how Bart needs to be reminded to eat vegetables but Thad needs to be reminded that seasoning doesn't mean unhealthy and that food doesn't need to be purely nutritional. I think she'd remember when every day after school she reminds Bart to do his homework and reassures Thad that a week is enough time to write an essay and he doesn't need neglect his needs to do so. I think she'd always notice the way he sizes every new person up, mentally categorizing their weaknesses, just in case.

I think to some degree she would forget he was dangerous - the same way she forgets Max and Bart are dangerous compared to her. I think she would sit with all her guards down on the couch with him watching a movie. But I don’t think she'd ever be able to forget the ways every action he takes is informed by trauma.

Some really awful shit happened at work and I’m in a horrible mood. Please feel free to send positivity or kindness or reaffirmations if you want. Idk

[imheretoreadafic]

I'm not great at words always (sometimes I cook but today I fear I cannot) so instead I drew you Bart doing the splits. Because silly Bart always cheers me up!

Hope you're staying safe and taking care of yourself <3

Sensory seeking Bart Allen asking Kon to pick him up, swing him around, throw him, shake him, squeeze him, fly with him, etc. and Kon just happily doing so because 1, it makes Bart happy and 2, it makes Kon happy that the speedster trusts his strength control so much.

[imheretoreadafic]

Kon throwing Bart into the lake, Bart coming back and Kon throwing him again on loop for like thirty minutes straight

[melonlthawne]

I WANT ART IDEAS/SUGGESTIONS STAT!!!

[imheretoreadafic]

UHHH AH UHM BART ALLEN UNDER WATER? DAMIAN WAYNE SITTING IN GARDEN? POMNI HAVING A TERRIBLE SECRET UNDER HER HAT? MOVIE NIGHT? PASSED THE FUCK OUT IN THE BACK OF A CAR? EATING A CHURRO? BEACH DAY? STRETCHES? THEM RANTING ABOUT THEIR LATEST INTEREST? BART ALLEN DRESSED LIKE A CHEETA?

[starcrossedconverse]

the more you study art the more you realize that no one knows what kids look like

[starcrossedconverse]

and this is a joke, but also i think it probably comes down to how the western world has prioritized male artists, has historically held their art to a higher quality, and therefore preserve it more than art made by female artists. so all the famous pieces (typically made by men) are the most present when looking at art from most eras. this is important because usually men haven't necessarily spent a lot of time with kids and babies from a historical standpoint, child rearing is more of "a female role," and men don't spend the time to actually study them as their own people. and this means that have children and babies look like their at middle aged

Hi! Just a real quick thing on the Old Man Baby Jesus paintings, for a while in the beginning, a lot of them were actually doing that as a idealistic representation. The idea being that Jesus was born again, all knowing, wise and ageless in a way. In fact, we can see a few more "normal" looking babies for other things from some artists who did Old Man Baby Jesus! Though, the babies do still look a bit rough due to the things you pointed out, lol.

[guysandcorpses]

“timkon where bart is always there lol” make them poly, coward.

[imheretoreadafic]

Hehehehe my boys <3

[dementedspeedster]

You know what? I think that it's interesting that three out of the four times Bart has been an adult in the comics he has chosen extreme violence (Albeit it is kind of a righteous fury in these instances too).

Impulse #75

The Ray (1994) #25 (Thanks thebartallenblog and cosmoteer for telling me about this one)

The Flash: The Fastest Man Alive #13 (Vol. 1)

And that is just very Thawne-like of him. And two out the three times also involve interacting with Thawnes (President Thaddeus Thawne and Thad Thawne II (Inertia) respectively).

Yes, I am still on my Bart-has-Thawne-qualities-and-one-of-them-is-anger propaganda. Bart being angry is just so interesting to me because it's not typically the emotion or characteristic anyone associates him with, but it's there. When he gets angry he's not holding back.

[imheretoreadafic]

Bart is a genuinely sweet character.

But holy shit when he crashes out he CRASHES OUT.

And when he gets mean he gets MEAN.

I miss when ads were a single click and then they’re gone. Now every ad has a minimum of three phases where you watch a video, exit the still frame of fake gameplay, and then exit the app download. That doesn’t even touch on the ones that forcibly take you to another app after opening a tab in safari without you ever touching the screen.

I hate advertising. I hate that you can’t do anything without companies jumping down your throat with mostly bullshit ads. I hate that billboards exist. I hate that every company unanimously decided to make their ads longer and longer. I hate that ad blockers try to charge you money and there are in app purchases to remove ads. I hate that my attention has become commodified. I hate that there’s nothing I can do about it.

[imheretoreadafic]

The not being able to anything about it is what hurts the most. Because maybe I wouldn't be as upset if I actually had a choice in all this.

[brucewayneseyeshadow]

omg they’re so stupid😭 I love them so much

[imheretoreadafic]

Are they really your friend if you've never had to remind yourself murder was wrong because of them?

love how barts the only one who knew linda was missing and could see her, but was ignored and told she was imaginary and then no one ever apologized for that when she did come back for real

[impulseisms]

also no one was concerned that a what, 14 year old had an imaginary friend he actually believed in?? if it was true that would be evidence of a serious mental health issue, he's only chronologically a toddler and that's really not normal for older kids

[radioactive-earthshine]

I know right? It was firmly established over and over again he was a teenager. If a teenager randomly started, to them, talking about someone that didn't exist that's a huge red flag for something deeper going on. Head trauma or like you said, a mental health issue.

[starcrossedconverse]

max reassuring everyone that despite bart not having a history of making up people or thinking that character in video games actually exist it's actually perfectly normal and sane for a 14 year old to hallucinate his cousin having a girlfriend

flash 87 issue 152

[imheretoreadafic]

Max and his old man "Nah mental illness isn't real" bullshit.

[imheretoreadafic]

Bart Allen wondering in the dark quiet of his bedroom late at night if President Thwane ever, for even a second, loved him like a grandson or if he was always a tool in his eyes

[imheretoreadafic]

I think Klarion the witch boy would turn ICE agents into mice for Teekl to chase without hesitation (Ik you only ask for the names but I lowkey got excited abt this idea lol)

Teekl with her snack and Klarion inspecting their stuff afterwards!

Disclaimer: Klarion is NOT using proper gun safety in this image. If you turn an ICE agent into a mouse to feed to your cat please use proper gun safety unlike him.

Without text under cut :>

Another panel redraw

When bestie starts explaining her first date with a guy but you know you can't immediately say what you're thinking:

[starcrossedconverse]

okay im still thinking about the subway token job. his tokens :(

[starcrossedconverse]

no one cares that max mercury had a job selling subway tokens for three pages in a comic published thirty years ago

[imheretoreadafic]

Max doesn't talk all that much about his past not because it's super angsty - it is but that's the main reason. The main reason is that he really doesn't want to explain and justify the hundreds of side quests he went on.
