Saw your Crocodile post while slightly sleepdeprived, but the Croco-mom theory remains the funniest shit ever. I mean, I know logically Croc was probably just a rookie that got wrecked by Whitebeard, and what Iva's got on him could be anything, and he could be honest on why he helped during Marineford, and the image with him standing with the whitebeard crew could just be framing, but Crocodile being Whitebeard's estranged ex-daughter and Luffy's biomom? Him having slept with -Dragon-? I die.🤣

it can be true In Our Hearts

That three panels with Screamer and Shocky took forever... not because of the drawing but writing

Apologies for scrappy dialogues

“To clarify, we WERE able to think and feel for ourselves from the start, but our minds had been wiped. Only what Unicron wanted remained, so we thought and felt what he wanted us too. The aforementioned impulses I mentioned were what lead us to target Starscream in particular and, more accurately, then it was Megatrons persistent selfishness that saved us. You see with our minds wiped to Unicrons liking none of us cared about Cybertron at all, however, some lingering selfishness from Megatron caused Galvatron to become outraged at Unicron for eating one of the planets moons. That... that was when Unicron retaliated and we realised how little we meant to him, we were toys, it drove fear into us and made us realise we wanted more... we wanted out.” - Scourge.

SO YOU HAVE CHOSEN to have a passing interest in my special interest! Which Megatron is your favorite? Personally I do a fan-built composite fo various Megatrons from various series/universes with traits depending on my shifting preference. The dramatic personality, the intelligence mixed with dumbass, his focus, his twisted, dark form of heroism and honour, the fact that, even at his worst, he was the lesser evil compared to the facist police state he rebelled against. Tell me what you love?

your answer is the correct answer! one million percent correct! that’s where I’m at that’s who I love!

altho, if I had to pick a canon Megatron I’d pick the one from the Prime TV show by virtue of the fact: - I watched Prime as a kid and I’m gay now - HE’S SO GAY ON THAT SHOW HE EVEN SAYS ‘OLD FRIEND’ THAT’S THE MAJOR GAY-”FRIENDS”-TO-ENEMIES SIGNIFIER OKAY ALSO HE’S ALL LIKE “NO ONE KILLS OPTIMUS BUT ME” AND THAT’S GAYYYYYYYY - I recently started rewatching it on a date with my partner and we’re gay

tl;dr I’m here for primarily pre-canon miner-turned-gladiator-turned-revolutionary, brutal, drama queen, Opimus-loving Megatron (but I will take evil gay Megatron at a push) and I am not afraid to admit it ;PP

Those Driders you speculated on were deeply unsetteling and I can't get them out of my head now. I love it. I haven't read a good horror story that stuck in my brain for days on end for years now, and here you are, bringing me giant intelligent parasitic spiders to be terrified by, and I'm not even afraid of spiders. So, thank you! That was some excellent speculative fiction.

Yeah, I seem to have a bit of a bent towards horror when doing the whole Fantasy Biology series. I guess that’s just where my brain goes? They all feel like short story ideas to me. If only I had the time to write what I actually want to write.

Ok, I just read the article SkyKnit: When knitters teamed up with a neural network, and I was kind of wondering what kind of effect, or what kind of deals, you could make with eldritch knitting like that?

There are plenty of stories about the Gentry paying extravagant prices for just one truly beautiful item of clothing - for this coat, tailor, you may have a pot that never empties of food, a sword that will pierce the dragon’s hide, one night with your stolen beloved in which to make her remember. The SkyKnit pieces, in all their intricate organic time-comsuming devotion, would likely merit similar prices.

By the way, apparently I was a "crawl into parents bed when unable to sleep in under five minutes"-kid, and they solved it by setting hard limits. Aka: they told me I'd spend the night in the dog's shed if I did it again. So I did it again, and they put me there for ten seconds - long enough for me to believe they'd leave me there - and then I never did it again. I didn't actually comprehent my parents as seperate people with their own needs at the time.

That’s terrifying. We also don’t have a dog- and I really couldn’t bring myself to even pretend to leave my daughter outside for the night. I’ve seen what raccoons and coyotes have done to animals in our yard D:Ophelia’s old enough (coming up on nine) that she’s absolutely aware that her being awake is bad, and sometimes outright unhealthy and painful for me- it’s actually a big issue with her is that she gets caught in shame spirals;

“I can’t sleep” > “Mom can’t sleep if I don’t sleep” > “I’m hurting mom” > “I’m ashamed of not being able to sleep” > “I’m so ashamed I can’t calm down” > “I can’t sleep” > “Mom can’t-”

This makes it a lot trickier to work with because she’s 100% aware of the things around her, the problem is unfortunately that things have become difficult lately with her other grandparents (IE us cutting them out of her life because fuck those people) and even if we’ve talked a lot about it, that sort of stress is something a kid can still pick up on very easily- coupled with the fact that I would put money on her having inherited some of the general anxiety disorders me and her father both have stacked up on either side of this family tree.

Listen, we already won the genetic lottery by her being physically a shitload healthier than either of us ever were. We were constantly in and out of emergency rooms and ENT specialists as kids, and she’s like “hey what if I basically never get sick and am super active and athletic without that asthma stuff you guys have? Haha nice.” - maybe losing the Mental Health Lottery a little isn’t so bad.

At least we’re better at recognizing and starting to deal with this stuff than our parents were, at her age.

Hi there fellow Good Omens fan. I came across your reblog where you asked why Aziraphale hates Gabriël, and since I was pretty much neck deep in the Good Omens fandom some seven or eight years ago, I think I know this one. I replied to that post in que, but, basically, Neil Gaiman worked on Hellblazer and Gabriel is an absolute douchelord in Hellblazer. Straight up murders a dude and steals a baby kind of douchelord, and that's not counting his attitude towards humanity, which is Islington-ish.

HECK!!!

See yeah I figured there might have been yet another connection, so I was slowly working through Neil’s books to see if I could find it!!! I’ll definitely check that out. Thank you so so much!! I love it when things loop around like this.
