every day i'm mad asf because this DUDE TOOK MY SHADOWVANILLA KID IDEA RIGHT OUT OF MY FUCKING HANDS

#do you know how much PONDERING IT TOOK #how many IDEAS I WENT THROUGH #AND THEN FINALLY #I LAND ON GOLD #A CHESS THEMED COOKIE NAMED FUCKING BUTTERMILK #AND THEN I LOOK IT UP TO CHECK IF THE NAME WAS TAKEN #AND BOOM #THERE HE IS #MY ENTIRE FUCKNG IDEA IN OFFICAL FORM

my favourite sexuality for comic book characters to be is "we made this other character canonically queer because of their relationship with them but for some reason they are still canonically straight"

like wade wilson? mostly canonically queer because of the period where he was married to cable. he was in a queer relationship, so we have to just make him canonically queer. (Yes I know it's not the only reason, I have read all his extremely camp early 00s comics, but lets be real they'd have kept insisting that was all just a joke if it wasn't for Cable and Deadpool).

cable? definitely straight. 100% straight. obviously cable is straight. his relationship with wade is only gay during the & Deadpool, in the Cable part of the book it's very straight. He stands next to a woman sometimes, that's how you can tell it's not gay.

Kitty has, finally, been allowed to come out, but for like a decade, Illyana was canon queer because she dated Kitty, but Kitty was definitely straight and would never date a woman, and no one at marvel thought there was anything weird about that.

Marvel has way more of these, mostly by virtue of having more queer characters and also chris clairmont (you can never understate the impact of chris clairmont in these matters) but Tim Drake and Kon Kent spring to mind from DC.

I think you could even make a solid argument that 616 Tony and Steve are that, given Tony is out now and Steve, somehow, still isn't.

anyway you don't really get these in any other medium, because they require multiple writers who all wildly disagree with one another to all write the same characters to happen, but i love them, and as much as I want Cable and Kon to come out, I kind of hope this never stops happening in comics, it's just never not funny.

#am i right in thinking one of boostle got to come out and not the other one recently?#i'm not that up on non bat dc stuff recently #anyway please leave your suggestions for other examples in the comments #and don't get mad about the ID #I did an actual ID as alt text #that one's just a joke #cablepool #kitty pryde #what's kitty and illyana's ship name?#i feel like i should know but i don't #timkon #616 stony #these are my favourite comics specific sexualities #and 'this character is just straight up queer but as long as we never say the words on panel no they aren't' is my second #your mystiques and your wolverines #and then finally #in the trifecta of terrible queer rep that i adore #you have 'this character is canonically straight but the fandom universally rejects that to the point of genuinely forgetting it's canon'#which is where gambit and roy harper live #gambit has never done anything that gay on panel that i know of #at least not by the standards of the x-men #he just has the strongest bi vibes you've ever seen #i genuinely forget he isn't bi 90% of the time

Velma by Me!

A random thought I just had.

In the rewrite that lives in my head of HBOVelma I thought about a gag where everyone swears at least once (it will depend on the character obviously. I will make that swearing meme at some point to exemplify what I mean)… except Fred

Not because he chose not to.

But because he is always either interrupted or cut out before he can or “Well F *LOUD CAR HORN*”

This only happens to him.

#scooby gang #scooby doo #velma by me #rewrite #HBO Velma #fred jones #Fred’s catchphrase is the only exception #and he will drop it only once #it will be the first time the gang will say all their catchphrases together #jinkies #jeepers #zoinks #and then finally #FINALLY #fuck

wip wednesday

“Wait,” Mo Xuanyu blurts out. “It will trigger—” Wei Wuxian signs. The lash swings down. Scarlet flares, a bloody ripple in the air. It shimmers, disappears—then surges upwards and away from the strike, racing off like lightning. “—a warning,” Wei Wuxian finishes. The barrier shatters in a scarlet rain, and resentment rushes out. It knocks into Jin Ling like a living thing, nearly bowling him to the ground. Biting edges tear at his skin, dig into his meridians. A hundred voices scream together—revenge don’t you want—murderer—death—death revenge—give us— A warm hand grips his elbow, steadying him, and a low hum cuts through the noise. It swells, rises, wraps around him like a cloak. When he can finally bear to open his eyes, Jin Ling finds Wei Wuxian standing before him, his body placed between them and where the ruined barrier sparks. Mo Xuanyu has drawn his flute and begins to play—less confident than Wei Wuxian’s steady hum but still stubborn, decided, once he gets started. On Wei Wuxian’s other side, Wen Ning stands braced like a shield. Between them, the needling cloud abates, drawing glass slivers from Jin Ling’s skin and easing the thunderous pressure behind his eyes. “Well,” Wei Wuxian signs as he finally turns around, “they know we’re here now.” “Wei Ying,” Hanguang-jun says, voice low and alarmed. Blood trickles down his chin, three red drops. It’s not much, not enough to be deadly, but Jin Ling’s heart still lurches as it stripes his chin. Wei Wuxian blinks once before reaching his hand up to touch his lips tentatively. A faint furrow wrinkles his brow, and then he breathes out a quiet laugh and rubs at the blood with his sleeve. “You idiot,” jiujiu says, seething. “You couldn’t just let them handle it for once? You should know how the Lan spell works by now.” Hanguang-jun tightens, expression darkening. Looking to Sizhui and Jingyi, Jin Ling finds equal confusion in their expressions as they turn to look questioningly at Hanguang-jun. Everyone seems silenced, sheepish: Mo Xuanyu ducks his head guiltily, and Wen Ning’s gaze is dark. “Ah it’s nothing,” Wei Wuxian signs hurriedly. “Just habit. Now let’s go, aren’t we going to fight?” Scowling, jiujiu clenches his fist as if he’ll call Zidian, but he only grits his teeth and turns back toward the ruptured barrier. With the spell dispersed, Jin Ling can catch a glimmer of water, silver through the leaves. “Lan Wangji, keep him behind you,” jiujiu spits over his shoulder. “He never can help himself.”
