@retroreflective​.  /  starter call!

     ❛ you threatened a superhero with a potato gun? wow. you’ve got some fuckin’ balls, man. ❜

“He deserved it, he broke into my garage!   Besides, I didn’t know it was a superhero   at first .... realized pretty quickly, though.   Still say he deserved it.”

Peter is testing one of the spider bots he made-- still a PROTOTYPE, but he decided to see if the primary functions are working. After abruptly shifting a controller, though, the bot ends up moving TOO fast, /and starts flying right at Harley./ "uH-- HARLEY, LOOK OUT!"

DISNEYLAND SAID ASH AND LUNE RIGHTS

Harley’s absorbed in his own work — blueprints layed out over the desk in front of him, gears and tools and wires set on top, half covering the patterns and half ensuring they stay flat. There’s grease smudged across his fingertips, across his cheek where a hand currently rests to support his head. He barely even registers Peter’s presence, vaguely aware he’s in the room but not giving it much more thought. 

That is, until Peter calls out just a moment too late. 

“— shit!!”

“dude” but like romantically

“babe” but like platonically

“Sweetheart” but like rivalry

in a series of ‘lune continues to overwork herself’, I now have an internship that starts next week. the week before midterms.

He’s leaning as far back as his chair will possibly allow him ( verge of tipping, though he hardly seems to care ), sour expression taking over features as he just glares at the ceiling. There’s a pencil clutched in his hand, grip shifting every few seconds as if he can’t decide whether to break it in half or throw it across the room. Creative blocks are the worst, aren’t they?

I’m very deeply frustrated by my inability to make good art right now so I’m hanging out and around for a bit

BUZZFEED UNSOLVED: SUPERNATURAL SENTENCE STARTERS ( S2. )

He’s only half paying attention when Peter walks in — a quick smile of acknowledgement before turning back to what he’s working on ( college applications will be the death of him, he swears it ), a bit more motivated to actually finish now that the other boy is here. And then he processes just what Peter said and everything short circuits, a genuine stutter in his movement. 

“What the fuck? No, you — explain, now.” 

He’s on his feet now, expression somewhere between panicked and angry ; there’s no way he’s letting Peter leave without an explanation and a plan.

❛ hey ghouls! the boys are here. ❜

BUZZFEED UNSOLVED: SUPERNATURAL SENTENCE STARTERS ( S2. )

“Dude! Are you trying to get us killed?”

Before Peter can even finish, Harley’s shouting and smacking his shoulder — brows knit in frustration, a huff pushing past his lips. He pauses, glancing around before continuing in a hissed whisper. 

“Or at least me killed, cause in case you forgot —    I don’t have any goddamn powers!”

❛ and the worst part is, i don’t even have my holy water! ❜ 

❛ you escaped the clutches of yet another demon. ❜ 

❛ there may very well be a hot dog vendor in chicago who is a bigfoot. ❜     

❛ demons, you cowards! ❜ 

❛ this is like satan’s cement butt hole. ❜ 

❛ i think your douche meter is usually half mast but right now it’s about three quarters full. ❜ 

❛ i think a moon having a boner is about as realistic as ghosts. ❜ 

❛ well the only way to really provoke them is to provoke them! ❜     

❛ i think the ground is cleaner than this couch. ❜ 

❛ holy shit, it’s a jacuzzi tub! ❜ 

❛ i stole them off a woman who died on the titanic! ❜ 

❛ no, no, no, you’re going to scare the ghosts away. ❜ 

❛ if i see people taller than me, i get concerned about them because i think they’re gonna die. . young. ❜ 

❛ jesus christ, do you always have to insult the ghosts at the place we’re at? ❜ 

❛ if george clooney was on the tonight show and you set him on fire, one of his feet would burn and the other one would probably still be planted there on the floor in a very nice shoe — clooney’s flammable. ❜ 

❛ i’ve always gotta’ think about stuff, y’know? like this mannequin in this tub, what’s he doing here? ❜ 

❛ hey demons, it’s me, ya’ boy. ❜ 

❛ it is a very old piece of footage, but so is die hard — still good. ❜ 

❛ so it was aliens? they showed up, gave ‘em ipads, gave ‘em a zune, built the pyramids, left, and that’s it? ❜ 

❛ stop telling the ghosts to follow me home. ❜ 

❛ oh so you’re going to make me sit in the shitty chair? ❜ 

❛ this guy has been inhaling too many cat shit fumes. ❜     

❛ i took an improv comedy class once, ‘cause i’m a white guy. ❜ 

❛ i just got startled by a disco ball. ❜ 

❛ maybe this ghost just loves to blaze it. ❜ 

❛ just, to be fair, fuck christopher columbus. ❜ 

❛ i’m not doing this because i want to steal, i‘m doing this because i want to give the ghosts significant reason to haunt me. ❜ 

❛ hey ghouls! the boys are here. ❜ 

❛ i think everyone needs a hobby, and if you don’t have one, that’s when you’re probably gonna start killing people. ❜ 

❛ i wasn’t fat-shaming bigfoot! ❜         

❛ this is what happens when people are passive aggressive full-time. ❜ 

❛ ghost 101: one, knock book off shelf. week two, hold a candlestick in the middle of a hallway. three…sheets. ❜ 

❛ it looks like one of the conjuring films. ❜ 

❛ anytime you get uneasy, that’s me! ❜ 

❛ if there were a town full of me in the puritan times, we’d have landed on the moon in 1790. ❜ 

❛ we’re just two guys sitting in a tub. ❜ 

❛ demons! you’re not trying hard enough — plunge us into darkness! ❜     

❛ you gotta’ fuckin’ calm down, man. ❜ 

❛ why is it someone who chokes on a peanut doesn’t get a ghost? ❜ 

❛ i think it’s a little bit more fun to believe that humans are capable of some truly horrific things. ❜ 

❛ i’m exposing my cranium to you. ❜     

❛ there’s a good chance tonight is the night you see me die on camera. ❜ 

❛ shadows do tend to follow you though, that’s how they work. ❜ 

❛ this is gonna get a little morbid, but who’s to say that a burning body doesn’t smell like barbecue? ❜ 

❛ i didn’t even get to do all the things on my bucket list. ❜ 

❛ i don’t wanna be a ghost hunter, this is all bullshit! ❜ 

❛ you keep tricking me into talking to them, you fuckin’ dickhead! ❜ 

❛ spooky, huh? ❜ 

❛ is it very european to — to burst into flames? ❜ 

❛ and i guess this is where we’re fuckin’ sleeping because we’re idiots. ❜ 

❛ ( wheeze ) ❜

&. * @retroreflective​ !!

        morgan’s lip are curved into a wide smile, eyes alive with glimmer and excitement. no matter how old she got, that child-like wide eyedness never seemed to flea her. it didn’t bother her, but she’s unsure where it comes from, as well as  pretty convinced it would remain with her through the rest of her life. she’s sure the huge slushie in her hand might not be helping much, either.  “ i’m feeling kinda cocky ‘cause the girl at sev elev gave me a generous pour. ”

Morgan’s glee is infections ; matching smile tugging at his own lips, the breath of a laugh tumbling into the air. Brow is raised in slight question, gaze flicking between the slushie she’s clutching and her expression. They may not share any blood, but that doesn’t make him any less her big brother, and so he can’t help himself but to ask —

“Oh? Was she cute?” 

[retroreflective]

hi ! okay, so I’m sure this was fairly obvious but I wanted to officially say it — all of my blogs are officially on low activity / I’m pretty much only popping on to write what I want when I want to. 

for those of you who are unaware, last semester I was denied from a program that would allow me three semesters worth of intensive and focused photography studio time. this week, I received the news that a few of the professors in my department were able to convince the director to reconsider their decision, and I have been officially accepted to the program. this is so huge for me, you guys have no idea — I haven’t stopped crying since I got the news. 

however, this program is 18 hours a week + a constant production of work. we have our first public installation at the end of the semester. with how long and hard the professors who supported me fought to get me here, I don’t want to let them down. 

I know I won’t. I know I’m good. I know this is where I’m supposed to be, and now more than ever I’m excited to make work that’s meaningful and that I’m proud of. and that’s where I’m going to put my creative focus.

for most of ya’ll, especially those of you who talk to me on a regular basis, this isn’t a shock. if you want to keep up with me / maybe write as well, feel free to ask for my discord. otherwise, I’ll be seein ya when I see ya.
