[megalodontooth]

just a funny post

before I signed up here, I had no idea that there were so many people who loved bottom billy. it just so happened that I immediately(?) liked him in this particular role ʕﹷᴥﹷʔ

so I'm very happy to meet people who share my point of view

(p.s. I was afraid of being a hermit..🫠)

au on the topic of what if

(inspired by this post)

The Hargrove-Maylfield move to Hawkins. Neil deliberately put Max in the Camaro to reduce the chances and temptations for Billy to turn back.

And so they followed his pickup truck across state lines. As they drove out of California, Billy glanced at his rearview mirror several times, frowning involuntarily. A risky idea occurred to him...

An AC/DC song was playing on the radio, and he began unconsciously tapping his finger to the beat.

The desire that had spontaneously arisen gradually took over his thoughts. As they drove further and further away, he kept his gaze focused straight on the road, his eyes wandering over the car in front of him. He gripped the steering wheel tighter and gritted his teeth.

Max sat in the front seat, arms stubbornly crossed, her head turning now to the right, at the passing landscapes, now forward, at the road. Noticing a change, she cast an irritated glance at him.

Billy's posture was wary, even somewhat uneasy, he fidgeted slightly in his seat. She studied his profile for a couple more minutes, but didn't dare ask what was wrong.

They pulled onto the highway and merged with the traffic. Later, a van with a trailer pulled up in the adjacent lane and pulled alongside Neil's car. Billy followed it and suddenly spotted a right turn in the distance, likely leading to the next town. Finally, a plan had formed.

Max turned back to him. Seeing him stare intently at the road, then at the cars behind him, doubt began to creep into her. They weren't far from the turnoff.

"Billy?" she asked, confused, as he slowed down slightly.

"Hold on tight," his voice sounded choked.

The only warning came when they suddenly made a sharp right turn, just as the van was about to change lanes. Panicked, she gripped the dashboard with one hand and the door handle with the other, looking around. The road sign flashed: Arizona 12km.

and what happens next you will find out in the next episode (or not) hehe

There have been more harringrove artists (drawings) lately, it's make me happy!

I secretly dream that there would be more fics too..

I guess we gotta to be the change we want to see in the world, nonnie XD

@rigginsstreet is launching super chill harringrove fic week and there's also the harringrove summer bingo going on.

That being said, Harringrove has an abundance of super-talented writers, but we have to motivate them. And how do you motivate writers? Give kudos BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY

COMMENT

Seriously, it's SO important. Don't be the love 'em ad leave 'em kinda fan. Let them know how much you love, love, LOVE their fic.

And even if you don't - clicking the kudos button doesn't cost a thing. It says 'I see and appreciate you'.

Also, hey, it's Monday, right? Maybe we should start the

"Harringrove Comment on a Fic Monday"

And if you're shy? Just give them some extra

just copy and paste this, in case you don't now how to post images in comments <3

[megalodontooth]

I support all fic writers who write their own. I adore you (*´˘`*)♡ just know that, sometimes reading your story can make my day better, or even more!

if I could leave a few kudos, I would 🌻

[megalodontooth]

experiment 😼

[megalodontooth]

a small drawing. also, I couldn't decide which version I liked more (〃∀〃)ゞ

(right now all my energy is going into the zine🦐🦐)

[keaganz]

PSA!

I feel like I'm doing this every other month lol. But for some unexplained reason Harringrove authors on A03 are deleting their works in droves.

As an avid Harringrove fan I would like to ask you to please, please, please orphan or anonymise your works instead of delating them fully. I understand as an author that it's you're right to delete your own works for what ever reason. But it absolutely sucks to ho into your bookmarks and find your comfort fic suddenly gone.

Now to the PSA part

A03 has the option for you to orphan and anonymise fics

People need to stop getting on their high horses and harass people into feeling like they need to delete works

Ship and let fucking people shit what ever they wish

Archive of Owens Own is an Archive! They don't tell people to delete their works for writing about your favorite ships. They protect your right to ship them

Don't engage with things that you personally don't like. Don't like a certain ship or subject matter, just don't read it. Don't go an harass the author. No one is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to read a fic about Billy and Steve living their live.

First (technically second, the first one was even MORE of an experiment) try with gel plate printing.

I never manage to get an image to stick the way tutorial videos say, so for this one I simply cut out pieces of paper and rolled on the paint after. Some color corrections made in Photoshop after.

Oh well, fun experiment. Will continue trying at some point, probably.

[megalodontooth]

Anyway.. Guys, I'm taking a short break because my depressive state has worsened :/

take care of yourself🌻

[megalodontooth]

I can't help but post this here as a keepsake.

I've been looking for this figurine for about 4 years. Finally I have it + all volumes of the manga. Happiness knows no bounds, it's just incredible in person!!! 😭

love it💗🖤💗

[megalodontooth]

in short, ideas fics harringrove ʕ•́؈•̀)

☆ 1 au without Vecna and a slightly modified mind flayer. There's survival in the upside down, superpowers, and a few scientific(?) elements. In my head, this idea seems too big, so I don't know what to do with it yet (cut it down or split it up, ohhhh)

☆ 2 modern college setting, no upside down world, the plot mostly features grown teenagers (only in the story they're 20+). There are also some angst and fluff. There's a Robin and Billy friendship, yeeei. I hope I can explore different themes. (I was inspired by the movie «legally blonde», I don't know how, but yeah)

☆ 3 time travel (probably) before Billy was captured the mind flayer. There's more of a relationship between Max and Billy here. Quite disturbing

Guys, there's probably slowburn.. everywhere here. Don't hit me with slippers 🥺🌷

I have a plot plan for all three ideas, but first I want to write a few chapters so I can gradually release them. At the moment, I'm writing down different scenes and thoughts (add or change something)

I don't know yet which one will be the first to be posted (and which one is generally finished)

[thesouththth131]

Sometimes I think about Harrigrove and the sheer amount of potential they had, and I lose my mind a little.

[billyezine]

I'm an artist @megalodontooth and I'm gradually developing in this creative direction. I like to draw both fandoms and something of my own. In short: I fell in love with Billy closer to the release of season 3, but he interested me from the very first scenes, heh. We have some similar hobbies and his story resonates with me.

[megalodontooth]

The version was originally supposed to be like this, although now I don't really like it hmph

While drawing, I remembered the blue-red trend (hmhm, I got curious, what if...) and after I changed the colors accordingly, the work became more interesting

i think ʕﹷᴥﹷʔ
