No. I'm fine, really. I'm just ugly crying about Carroll crater. A bright spot on the far side of the moon. I'm fine. I'll stop crying eventually.

art block been so bad i rlly don’t want to draw rn but this felt like a canon interaction to me for some reason

i wish we couldve seen more of greg and vidalia’s relationship bc they are SO funny. in my ideal world they have like the worst mixed family situation ever

Also i’m a firm believer sour cream as a kid was just as bad if not Worse than onion bc 1. vidalia is Abnormally unfazed by whatever onion has going on so she must have already been used to it SOMEHOW and 2. bro climbed a whole fucking ferris wheel at like a year old and he was just chilling there

Too many people having Pomni call Kinger "dad" and not enough out there having Pomni call him daddy.

My stupid lemon fanfic has been in process for so long now, this was written (alongside a good chunk of the fanfic) after episode THREE. It's so old I invented a bullshit way for the characters to get high because stupid sauce didn't exist yet. The ONLY reason I haven't chucked it out is because it's 8k words and only two scenes away from finishing, maybe three, but it is DUSTY from not being touched.

However I do still think this was the most canon shit I've ever written of these two, especially since this was before they'd really ever hung out.

No one told me the screenshot on this was ass so fixed it! Couple things about this I still like:

Jax is predictable

Jax can't be serious or give genuine apologies

Pomni clocks this and decides whether or not to continue the scene. She ultimately decides to because the joke was rude but not super cruel and she's willing to wait to chew him out for it

Calling him "Shitty Knockoff Bugs" (this was written episode 3-ish so it was definitely there but not outright said yet I feel)

Pogo the clown

Fun fact. Nothing can stop you from finding the oldest art your friend has ever made on their blog and reblogging it.

you don’t realize how important lunch is until you’re wandering around thinking about how unloveable and untalented and uniquely cursed you are and then it’s 4pm and you finally eat lunch and you go Oh. oh right.

[susiephone]

so frustrating to be a skeptic with a sense of whimsy because like. I want there to be cryptids. I want there to be magic. I want there to be evidence of something we don't fully understand and can't explain. but then 99% of the "proof" out there for that stuff is like. the most obvious scam you've ever seen in your life.

What are Jax's true thoughts on Gangle? Like i know she likes to bully Gangle in particular but we see moments where it seems like she actually thinks that they're friends almost (like when she says "what? She likes it when i'm mean to her") and ofc the scene with her in Jax's mind

I think Jax takes his complex feelings on his mother out on Gangle, but tries to justify it to himself through delusions that it's not ACTUALLY abuse, even though it is. Most abusers don't ever think of themselves as abusers, and tend to make up a reality in which their abuse is either not that big a deal or it's somehow warranted.

And from Gangle's perspective, she was at a very vulnerable place when she joined, and Jax took control of their relationship. She formed a bit of a codependent bond with him even though it just mostly caused her pain. Losing a friend who frequently hurts you can fill you with complex feelings that are really hard to make sense out of.

Gobbles is like a kindergarten teacher thrown into a warzone. He's here with his ABC book and children's songs, meanwhile his colleagues are preventing terrorism and carry rocket launchers.

Believe it or not, this is ship art. I may draw something cute between them soon, but for now, here 👐

I'm already concerned about Eve getting eaten from the inside-out show, do I need to be worried about Mark drinking her weird rainbow acid coffee? And also that sink?

[mandareeboo]

That is a NOLAN face if I've ever seen it

I think that's a normal reaction. Obviously the t-rex guy isn't to blame for the t-rex causing havoc- and it sounded like he had such brief moments of control he couldn't really ask for help- but in the middle of an adrenaline rush is a REALLY shit time to have to judge the character of a naked guy you don't know.

The important thing, to me, is that Mark paused. He was listening to the guy. And while his hold was far from friendly, the worst it would've done is knock him unconscious; and we know he could pop heads off necks with one hand, like that wasn't even close to his actual strength level.

He's worried that he's bad for even considering it, but he had ZERO reason to trust this complete stranger and EVERY reason to be concerned about the t-rex reemerging and causing hundreds or even thousands in death tolls. It's the 21-foot rule but for superheroes.
