I might be slightly tempted to try drawing designs for this Crystal Gem AU right now...

Go for it! :D I probably will myself, and I would love to see what other people come up with!

@elphiethesane replied to your post: Do you have themes for Feuilly week yet or is it...

Personally I’d love optional themes or something like that… That kind of thing always helps me come up with ideas, but if it’s optional it’s not restrictive or anything.

It seems like the overall reaction is positive to the idea of some kind of optional themes.  I was thinking that maybe a bingo card might be fun, so that there are more options and people can pick and choose the kinds of things that suit them.  

What do you think everyone?  Could I persuade you all to send me tropes/AUs/themes that might interest you for such a project?  ^_^

This is why I enjoy drawing noodle limbs. I mean that doesn’t mean I don’t have to draw feet, but as long as I don’t have to draw TOES…

I'm sure Hugo secretly intended to let us know that Valjean was really an octopus

it explains his awesome skill with disguise!

And we’d both like to participate. ^^                      

So far it’s looking like April 16th-22nd or April 23rd-29th are the best times for people, so if anyone else has a preference between those two please let me know! If not I’ll just pick a week from either of those. :)

I would honestly be all for modern AUs where they’re all inexplicably still wearing canon era fashion. Especially the waistcoats, because I like those.

YES EXACTLY :D like I don't need explanations everyone's just hanging out in frock coats and poofy skirts because they are because waistcoats are *awesome*

OK, as much as I love that movie, they’re… Really bad. I’d still recommend it because it’s otherwise fantastic and Esmeralda is the best, but…

Yeah, they're really what's held me back from checking it out all these years and uh. Yikés. As Bad As Advertised. But Disney!Esmerelda is really fantastic!

(really liking the stage play though! The interactive statues are SUCH a good idea...potentially...if they don't make fart jokes...)

Got the idea for this fic from  copperbadge!  Thanks for the idea!  Enjoy!

“Clint, do we have to do this?” “Yes, Steve, we have to do this.  I want to see who can drink five beers the fastest.  And Pietro, what’s the rule?” Clint asked, pegging his silver haired friend with a hard stare. “I know, I know.  No powers, I get it.” He mumbled, rolling his eyes and pushing his hair out of his eyes with a casual hand. “And no throwing up!  Anyone who throws up is disqualified!” Clint said quickly, grinning.  He knew his cast iron stomach would have no issue with hum chugging five bottles of beer. “Okay, Clint, we get it.” Steve said, sitting up a little straighter.  “Can we just get this over with?” “Aw, Steve, you’re such a spoil sport.  This is supposed to be fun.” “I know, and I’m sure it’ll be hysterical to watch you and Pietro get wasted.” He said with a smirk.  “Let’s do this.” “Okay!  First one to finish all five beers the fastest, without powers and without puking, wins these five hundred dollar bills.” Tony said, counting them out with a grin on his face.  “Ready?  On your mark, get set…go!” Steve grabbed his first bottle and began to chug in earnest.  The taste wasn’t unpleasant, but it wasn’t great either.  Beer back in the forties with his friends had definitely tasted better.  But this was one contest he knew he could win, he just had to pace himself.  His eyes flicked to Clint, who slammed down his first bottle and started in on his second, Pietro only seconds behind him.  Why did he suddenly feel the burning need to crush these two right into the ground?  He didn’t usually feel the need to drink, nor did he particularly enjoy it since his fast metabolism meant he couldn’t get drunk.  His eyes slid sideways to Clint, who was on his left, and looking a little green around the gills. Clint was slamming his beers down so quickly he didn’t notice the sudden churning in his as the alcohol sloshed around in his otherwise empty stomach.  As he slammed down his third bottle, he stopped and took several deep breaths, pressing a hand to his stomach.  “Oh man…” he groaned. “What?  You didn’t see that coming?” Pietro asked, his voice slightly slurred.  Sure, his metabolism was faster than most at this point, but he could definitely still get drunk, and chugging four out of the five bottles he’d been given had left his vision swaying and his stomach churning.   Steve grinned and set down his third bottle, starting on the fourth.  “So, which of you is going to hurl first?” he asked pleasantly. “Not me!” both Pietro and Clint said at the same time. However, it was only moments later that Clint lurched, Natasha sliding a trashcan under him just in time to catch all of the beer Clint had just ingested inside.  “One down.” She chuckled. “Oh…wait…” she glanced up at Pietro, just in time for him to jump up from the table and sprint away in a blur, presumably to the closest bathroom. “Steve, you win-“ “Let me finish the drinks.  I don’t win unless I finish, right?” he asked, smirking at his teammates as he lazily finished the fourth, and fifth bottles of beer.  “Okay, now you guys can tell me I won.” He grinned at them. “If you tell anyone that isn’t here about this, Rogers I’ll-ugh…” Clint groaned as another wave of vomiting happened.   “Oh don’t worry.  It’s already filmed and up on Tumblr.  And Facebook.  And Twitter!” Tony grinned.  “Check it out, Clint, you’re trending!  Hash-tag, Hawkeye tosses his cookies!” “Hash-tag, tony watch your ass cause theres gonna be an arrow in it…” Clint grunted as he heaved again.   “Don’t worry, Tony.  Once that alcohol actually kicks in he’ll be too drunk to remember anything he just said.” Natasha said through fits of laughter, patting him on the shoulder. “I know.  Great job, Capcicle.” He grinned as he handed Steve the hundred dollar bills and headed out of the kitchen, whistling happily.  This had definitely been a great ending to a great day.
