Thinking again about sterek fake dating in s1 because Scott, in the bullet episode, tells Allison that Stiles and Derek are dating to explain why Derek is in the school. It was the first thing that occurred to him because Stiles just told him he might be interested in guys so-
Allison tells Lydia, who tells Danny, who tells Jackson, and suddenly everyone knows
Stiles and Derek of course wanted to tell the truth before it became A Thing. But Scott convinces Stiles to lie because he doesn't want to look like a liar in front of Allison. And yeah the guy sucks but it would only be for a bit and then they can fake break up and no harm would be done! (Except for Stiles' ego because no one would believe that he chose to let a guy like Derek go)
Stiles, however, is weak to Scott's puppy eyes. And apparently Derek is weak to Stiles' doe eyes too because for some reason he finds himself agreeing despite having 27 problems right now and 0 energy to be more involved in Scott's relationship drama
He agrees with the condition that it's just an "in name" thing. Where he doesn't Actually have to act like Stiles' boyfriend, because he has things to do and an alpha to find and has no time for this-
Unfortunately for him, Lydia is curious about this new development (she didn't see it coming and is deeply perturbed by this so now she has to figure them out whether they like it or not) and keeps inviting Allison and Scott on double dates and oh who would've thought! Now Stiles doesn't need to awkwardly five wheel them and instead he can come with his new boyfriend and they can all get along!!!
Cue Scott's puppy eyes
Cue Stiles' doe eyes
Cue Derek agreeing for reasons that are beyond him
The Sheriff, of course, finds out. Because Lydia's very public dates mean they have no chance to hide it. So Derek finds himself having a "meet the parents" dinner while getting the shovel talk by the sheriff for a guy he's not really dating and doesn't even like (he doesn't, shut up. He was surely still under the effects of the wolfsbane when he was attacked by the doe eyes)
And he's still nowhere near close finding out who's the alpha that killed Laura. How is this his life?
Imagine Allison learning about werewolves and she's like ???? Stiles's boyfriend???? While Derek is tied up to the torture machine by his abuser just thinking about all the life choices that got him to this very specific moment
Allison also tries to take that opportunity to bond with Stiles, because she thinks he doesn't know anything about the furry club and she doesn't think it's fair to keep him in the dark and unprotected/out of control like they did with her
Stiles appreciates the feeling, he truly does, but unfortunately he cannot relate to Allison at all. Since yk- he does know about werewolves and it's definitely not dating one. Don't mind all the dates he and Derek had on their own that weren't even to keep up apparencies because no one is That invested in their love lives. And whatever confusing feelings he refuses to deal with. He has Priorities (don't ask him what are those, he cannot answer)
They're so stupid they'd probably keep "fake dating" even after everyone in the og group knows the truth, making every newcomer so confused about their relationship lol don't ask them questions they have things to do and are refusing to think about it
Rocky, once again, being baffled and STRESSED about human biology and the things his human does to keep healthy
i dont think mr "my whole crew died of radiation sickness" likes the fact that his alien and most things on his planet needs it for survival very much xD
previous
Playing god
Trying out a bit more realistic proportions and shading! I love the snowglobe concept and wanted to do a bit more character study for Crowley
once again these are all from like the same two canvas files in procreate judging from the same color background. also straight up had a dream where grace and rocky figured out how to make gnocchi out of taumoeba hence the making gnocchi over a bunsen burner
Just wanted to bring to your attention that the term whump was actually coined by the Stargate fandom specifically to describe making this guy suffer. He is the original Mr. Whump (no that's not his actual name). That's how torturable this guy is.
Everyone say mean things about him.
Here is a non exhaustive list of what he goes through in canon btw:
His parents get crushed to death right in front of him when he is a kid
He is forced to relive the memory of his parents death countless times
He dies and gets resurrected
His wife gets possessed
He fails to save her and she dies in his arms
He dies and gets resurrected again
He gets infected by a virus that makes him act crazy and gets put in an insane asylum
He dies and gets resurrected again
His ex gets possessed
He is exposed to a lethal dose of radiation
He dies and ascends to a higher plane, then gets kicked out of the higher plane and his memory is wiped
'rocky learns to swear in english' is great and all but have we considered the equally hilarious alternative: rocky makes grace a little harmonica so he can use tone indicators in eridian, does not realize how terrible of a mistake this is until it's too late. grace catches onto tone indicators FAST and he is DEVASTATING with their application. grace does not use eridian swears but rocky gets to hear "are we choosing kind words" and "I'm not mad I'm just disappointed" in eridian roughly thirty times per day
I was thinking about Project Hail Mary and I thought of this conversation that definitely happened on the way to Erid:
Grace: "It feels weird to call your planet by a name humans gave it. I know I can't pronounce the real name but can you tell me what it means?"
Rocky: "Rocky will tell Grace, but first Grace must tell Rocky meaning of 'Earth'."
Grace: "Well, uh, it sort of means 'ground'."
Rocky: "Boring!"
Grace: "Okay smart guy, what's your planet's name mean then?"
Rocky: "..."
Grace: "..."
Rocky: "..."
Rocky: "Ground."
now that @templartationsexchange 2026 are revealed, let me bask in showing off my delightful prompt for @michichi69 , some boy-kisser Alistair! I had so much fun painting this 🤍
another BBC Merlin thing we were robbed of: Arthur becoming used to Merlin's batshit power levels and then holding every other sorcerer he meets to those insanely high standards. what do you mean you can't stop time with your mind or summon lightning to the palm of your hand or blast away entire armies? Merlin can! the assassination attempts don't actually stop once the magic ban is repealed because Arthur continues to piss off a different warlock each week just by being himself
