he can’t see without his roommates :( i imagine after lilah confiscates his power tools he resorts to just moping around while they’re not there until they get home and give him attention

Ethluc is real bum tickley drew this

Hi guys i drew this two days ago

[nimbuslightest]

alright i'm biting the bullet and posting this on tumblr

in my spiral of becoming strangely fixated on the infamous ctrl+alt+del webcomic by tim buckley, there were two significant things i noticed.

the first was that despite it being around for decades at this point, there was no apparent sign on the internet of there being any ship art of ethan and lucas, the two male leads. i simply could not let this slide, which of course led to this art piece, which i currently consider to be my artistic magnum opus and i am only kind of joking.

the second was that there was also no fanfiction of this variety on ao3. there was one very short meme fic, so it did already exist as a categorized fandom...but, as i put it to my poor unfortunate online friends, i saw some untapped potential.

and so it was to be.

long story short, i wrote gay fanfiction about ethan and lucas from ctrl+alt+del. the first chapter is up on ao3. i may write a second one. depends on how evil i feel and also the more normal factors like motivation and inspiration.

here it is.

don't say i didn't warn you.

(i also just wanna say that nothing would be funnier to me than the desecration of tim buckley's creation with a new rise of gay fanfiction/fanart featuring his characters. no pressure though. heehee)

updated headcanon sheet with the trio. i will go into some of them a bit below the break because this is my post and nobody can stop me. (i know i forgot what roles ethan and lucas played in the eq2 subplot i didn’t feel like looking for it)

lilah:

she was raised in a wealthy family (this is how she knew christian, they grew up together) and she’s fairly close with her parents who are really supportive of her, but she knows they wouldn’t understand her wanting to pursue being a gamer/streamer so she decided to go off on her own. in a&d, she decided to go on her own because she didn’t want her parents’ wealth to be a crutch. it’s why she’s so serious/competitive about her journalism. she has ocd which makes her a bit of a control freak at times and causes her to lash out. she finds ethan exhausting at first because of how he disrupts her life

lucas:

his family is rarely mentioned and he doesn’t seem very torn up about it so i don’t think it’s a stretch to say he prefers not having contact with his folks. i personally think it would make sense that they had a big falling out after he came out in college and he decided to get emancipated. he’s lived with ethan ever since. he thought he’d hate working under ethan but actually finds it nice to not have to be in charge all the time. his dream is just to be surrounded by people who care about him so he’ll follow ethan to the ends of the earth

ethan:

in the main timeline he cut off his family because of the emotional neglect from his parents and the physical abuse from his brother. in a&d he was furious about how they handled his sister’s passing and asked for space. in both timelines he’s bipolar and his respective backstories have given him suicidal ideation, which he relies heavily on games and alcohol to keep at bay. he doesn’t like being left alone
