Had this scenario of Bruce having a busy night at a gala where he's meant to be hosting some auction or awards so he's got to be there, but he's Batman and the city needs him. So he's constantly doing the montage in 27 Dresses, changing in tight spots and in the back of the Batmobile, dashing back and forth, making tipsy toasts to the guests and then punching the Riddler. But eventually, Bruce gets caught up in everything. He does the low, gravely Batman growl when he's making a speech for the guests of honour so he giggles it off, says he was just 'trying something' and shows up to the roof of the GCPD clutching a violently pink cocktail with a Cunty little umbrella and wedge of fruit. Commissioner Gordon slaps it out of his hands and tells him they got a case to work on.
Love the soft, curious moments of them sharing about their own cultures, biology, etc. I do think Rocky would have a field day when Grace explains skin as a very sensitive and permeable organ with lots of stuff packed tight on the surface. Since goosebumps are very tactile, I thought Rocky would enjoy hearing those.
Also, bonus.
Because it is endlessly entertaining to me to consider how deep in the trenches Rocky is.
I just wanted to say I love your Scam Likely drawings and the sheer amount of gender you've managed to inject into them. I am curious tho what does Well Actually look like to you?
First of all, thank you SO much for your compliment!! Scam is very special to create so I am SO happy the design means a lot to others~
.........As for Well Actually, this was a horrifying experience and I thank you for challenging me with arguably my LEAST fave "character" - I mean that 100% seriously
I made his ears cut where Scam's earrings typically are - I don't think he would have earrings because they would be too much to take care of. I made his hair darker and more of a singular color - very flat and often greasy, same with the tail. It doesn't have the classic fluffy heart shape I tend to do. They do have the same body type under all of the unflattering clothes, face and neck are not as well taken care of with patchy facial hair and acne. Went for zip pants so he can spring into action at a moment's notice if he gets too warm while telling you how wrong you are about liking Naruto filler episodes.
I hope you guys like him!! I might draw him with Jodie if only bc I am sick in the head and have ideas, but that will be a bit xD
hey. if someone tries to smear you on the internet for something asinine, what you need to do is block every single person engaging with the post and remind yourself that absolutely under no circumstances are you obligated to draft a PR response defending some out-of-context screenshot or kink fanfiction or thing you said when you were 15 or whatever put your blood in the water. you are not a public figure or a brand. you do not have to respond to something if you know in your heart it is bullshit.
i am actually sick and tired of so much starstruck content characterising colt as this toxic masculine older brother who borderline treats grace as his property with the way he’s acting ‘protective’ about ryder.
colt spent 23 minutes ushering a bug out of jody’s bedroom, colt got slapped on the ass (BY RYDER) and the only thing he did was grimace and huff, ryder tried to straight up murder colt and all colt cared about was saving jody’s movie, and like. he called him a dipshit, that’s not even a swear. didn’t care about revenge at ALL. when jody mentions seeing other people after they broke up, it clearly upsets him, but he sucks it up because he knows it’s none of his business. i’ve seen this film over a dozen times and i am SICK. WHERE is this awful possessive uncommunicative toxic ass man coming from???
its one of the only action movies i know where the main guy actually displays a lot of emotional intelligence, care and regard for those around him. every time he steps wrong and jody tells him, he doesn’t make it her problem, and tries his absolute best to fix it. NOT my colt seavers you all need to either watch the movie again or keep his name out of your mouth
PS: AND JUST TO BE CLEAR. we’ve got more evidence of grace having a bad temper than colt. if colt tried that shit my bet is grace would straight up just deck him. brother shit
I believe zines and fan events are huge community builders within a fandom! I hope that this blog will help people find events to join, and help grow the lovely community of this fandom :)

What events may be promoted on this blog?
Zines, big bangs, fanweeks, prompt challenges, gift exchanges, contests, showdowns, multi animator projects, etc. Any PHM-focused event that is free to participate in is welcome here!
I will include events that are focused on ships, regardless of my own preferences. I will include events regardless of content rating.
What is the content of the blog?
For events hosted on Tumblr, I will reblog all relevant updates. For events hosted outside of Tumblr, I will post/reblog only interactive posts such as interest checks, applications, pre-orders and releases.
Some events will be focused on certain ships. These will be tagged accordingly so people can easily find or block according to preference.
