I like Shapesmith, he’s cute. But not enough to draw his logo (and Eve’s) I know that S will ruin me. I also know this audio is OLD old, but I thought that this fits him a lot and it’s an excuse to practice drawing backgrounds with the burger mart setting.
Tumblr is the only place I know I won’t get weird looks for asking in the Invincible fandom so I’m going to ask a question: would Shapesmith’s blush be light green or pink? Some minor spoilers below that doesn’t even affect the story but just incase.
In the show, we see shapesmith’s blood be this pale green (and in the comics a stronger green) and the reason why human blush is just a warmer shade of our skin is because our skin is translucent and the blood underneath it gets oxygenated (or something like that, I’m not a scientist) but the point is human blush gets redder because our blood is. So it means shapesmith’s blush must be green right? But that would look weird and if he did/could blush like that everyone would think he’s about to throw up.
Hey! Can I request a fic where the reader is a member of the GotG and best friends with Rex. Reader have a crush on Shapesmith and Rex takes it upon himself to be reader's wingman and get them together?
Shapesmith X Reader (feat: Wingman Rex)
How do we feel about the teased Rae x Rex pairing?
anyways- love Shapesmith, need more Shapesmith ngl
hcs under the cut!
"Reeeeex, he's just- ughhhh" you groaned into a pillow, your back splayed out against Rex's hard as rock mattress
"You're a lost fucking case, friend." Rex popped a fry into his mouth, leaning back in his gaming chair, which he only used to spin around when he had company, which was always just you
You'd been over this a million times in the last few months, with your crush on Shapesmith growing increasingly obvious and obnoxious
Every time the two of you hung out, at the gym or in public to get him used to Earth, you'd have to report back to Rex and be a gushy fucking mess
and you needed his help
"I'm gonna set you two up- you know he probably likes you too, right?" Rex was nonchalant, pulling out his phone
"NO-!" You tackled the phone out of Rex's hand, whining at him
"Rex what if he doesn't feel the same? what if I'm pathetic and unlikable and it's awkward?"
Rex rolled his eyes "Y/n, you either need to accept my help, do this on your own, or shut the hell up about it." He pinched his temple "Yaknow I love you, man, but this is driving me insane."
You pouted, a full minute of silence passing before you responded
"You got a plan?"
The "plan" was Valentines Day
Rex invited you and Shapesmith out to a romantic movie
"Oh I've never been to the movies before!" Shapesmith exclaimed, linking arms with you as you walked through the lobby with Rex close behind
err, he was close behind
where the fuck is he- ohhhhhhhhhh that's his plan.
You verified this when your phone buzzed to a thumbs up emoji from Rex
"go get em tiger" in effect
You suddenly got quite nervous.
Even more so when Shapesmith casually moved his hand down your arm and into your hand, slipping them together and intertwining your fingers
"Ah- Shapesmith- you're-"
"This is what people do when they go out to the movies, Rex told me so! So we don't lose each other." He grinned, his hand tight in yours.
"Haha- yeah- yknow- people also- uhm- mhm!"
It's when the ticket lady says "Ya'll have a nice date, you're a cute couple!" That Shapesmith starts to act weird
He doesn't contest the claim, just replying "thank you!!"
You're in the movie theatre and he's holding your hand, kicking your foot lightly every now and again
is he. is he playing footsies?
Your face is red as the film progressed, and you're grateful for the bucket of popcorn between you.
Shapesmith keeps trying to feed you popcorn, and you're not sure why.
He doesn't even comment on Rex being gone, it's like it doesn't even matter.
After the movie, Shapesmith is STILL HOLDING YOUR HAND- and Rex is still nowhere to be found, probably off watching a different movie.
Shapesmith is undeterred, and the two of you leave to get ice cream next door
he pays, which surprises you, and the two of you talk about your favorite ice cream flavors, his being the brightly colored superhero ones. He says it's on theme.
Shapesmith is walking you to your room at GHQ, and stops outside your door
"I had- a good time today, Y/n. Thank you." and he leans in to kiss you
Your face goes bright red before you duck out of the way "Agh- Shapesmith what the hell?"
He gives you a hurt and puzzled look "Is this not what couples do on Valentines day? Am I doing this wrong?"
"Wha? We aren't a couple!!"
"We..... no?" you're both thoroughly confused
"Why would you think that????"
Shapesmith tilted his head and shrugged "Rex explained what a relationship was to me last night, and I realized that we have been doing that for months! I felt bad, I've been your boyfriend and I've been... bad at it. I did not kiss you or hold your hand- I'm sorry Y/m-"
you were going to kill Rex
"Oh, Shapesmith..." you sighed "no- no we weren't dating. I mean, i'd like to be! But you didn't fail at anything, Rex was just being an ass."
Now it's his turn for his face to turn red, suddenly anxious as a quiet moment passed between the two of you
"Can I try again? To be your boyfriend, I mean."
"I'd like that."
He leans in and the two of you share an awkward, but wholesomely chaste kiss, before he walks away to his own dorm.
You sigh dreamily as your dorm door opens, revealing Rex playing your switch on your bed
"Haha- Take THAT Galamoth!!" he pauses the game, noting your presence "Oh yeah! How'd it go?!"
"Rex..... you.... you asshole!!" You grab a pillow and start beating him with it, relenting only when you're both exhausted on your bed
"So did it work?"
"....we kissed."
"AHA!! I'm brilliant, Go Rex, you're a genius, go Rex!" He sang, doing a little dance while laying down
"Ugh you're so obnoxious-" you smack him lazily with your arm
