I am a firm believer that Grace and Simon are both somewhere on the aroace spectrum. However, that does not mean I wont appreciate the explicit content of them because everyone here is so good at drawing and writing

HEAR ME OUT..

Grace is the single remaining scientist in whatever underwater abomination he was working in. Rocky is still an alien and he was being studied in the facility when It™ happened, he found Grace. Simon is the expendable sent down there to retrieve the crystal, Rocky and Grace find him. Maybe they live happily ever after down there, maybe all three of them escape. Who knows👀

Rant about SOME people in the Black Phone community.

Just so you know I talk a LOT about the implied S/A of the boys and mention some of the indicators I noticed. If that makes you uncomfortable, or is a trigger for you, scroll.

I watched The Black Phone with my friend last night and we both loved it, so, naturally decided to go online and explore the fandom.  I’m not lying when I tell you I CRIED out of anger at the literal second post I saw. 

It was a picture of The Grabber when he tried to play naughty boy the first time, and the caption had something to do with Finny being ‘lucky to have those pillows all to himself’, referencing The Grabber’s chest and stomach. One of the comments said Finny was being fucking greedy for not sharing. And, like I said, it was genuinely so insensitive and disgusting that I cried.

I don’t understand how people can sit here and post shit like that online. I don’t understand how you can sit here and make a post like that. If Finny couldn’t hear shit from that phone he would have been sexually assaulted and killed like all of the rest of those boys, and it’s not something that anybody should be joking about, regardless if it’s fiction or not. 

Not only have I seen disgusting shit like that, but me and my friends have discovered that people genuinely believe that those boys were not being sexually assaulted, which astounds me. 

Some of youse need to actually pick up a book or go back to fourth grade ELA classes, because tell me why people can’t see what is set out right in front of them? You shouldn’t have to see a five minute scene of the grabber sexually assaulting someone. You shouldn’t have to when it’s  so heavily implied. 

If half of these people had any media literacy that would have picked it up. There were extremely obvious similarities to John Wayne Gacy. The Naughty Boy game should have been self explanatory. Just the way The Grabber was touching Finny that first time he came into the basement should immediately have turned anyone off. How many wounds did we see on Vance? Not many, right? So what did The Grabber ‘take his time with’

It is self explanatory, and people need to start using their brains. 

It isn’t funny to make jokes about rape and sexual assault, whether it’s in a fictional setting or not. It’s not quirky to simp over a rapist pedofile. It’s not funny to not be media literate. And you shouldn’t need a rape scene in Black Phone to understand what’s happening when the directors so heavily implied it.

Went to a Led Zeppelin tribute concert last night and when I went to sleep afterwards instead of having weird ahh dreams about murder and horses I had a slightly angsty but mostly wonderful dream about Remus and Sirius and how they were living in a little treehouse for the summer.

I don't really think this one needs context

Me and my friends were wondering why all the boys at the pool left as if we weren't literally screaming about whether or not Wolfstar would partake in puppy play.

Doodles of Simon, Rocky, and Grace while I was watching Iron Lung last night

I was figuring out how I was gonna draw Simon, Ryland is there too. No close ups this time because I didn't want to. Also I'm really struggling with Ryland's side profile lately..
