when all you wanted to do was write a funny JayKyle fic about Jason Todd becoming a Star Sapphire but now you're 3 hours deep into research on military aviation gear for one, non-plot related, conversation 😔

“Did you really just fucking yell the My Little Pony theme song?”
i just hope it was the friendship is magic one
Oh it was absolutely the friendship is magic one , who do you take me for?
Jason Peter Todd is a cultured spirit, he knows My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is the superior MLP show 😌
What piece of art, or fanart would you say is your inspiration for the violet lantern uniform jason wears?
my version of Jason's star sapphire uniform is an amalgamation of different concepts I thought would be cool/symbolic to include (Nightwings fingerstripes, WW's boot stripe, the arm band Kori had in the 80's) and different fanart I've seen!
(and I also studied A LOT of different hero costumes that women in DC wear to try and keep a semblance of realism to the universe)
What I would say is my biggest inspiration in terms of fanart is @chiclete-com-manga 's Violet Lantern Jason Todd art! (check it out here)
And I also want to take a moment to give a special mention to other AMAZING artists I've seen, loved, and been inspired by while stalking the star sapphire Jason Todd tag!
@cambieart (check it out here!)
@va-nnahs (check it out here!)
@shartberries (check it out here!)
But in all honesty what I kept going back to as my reference, what I built most of the details around, and what I see as the foundation of his costume is Starfire's uniform from Teen Titans (2016)!
Hopefully I understood and answered your question clearly! x
(Thank you so much for leaving me an ask! I love interacting with the people who read my fics and I LOVE talking about/diving into the thought process and behind the scenes work that goes into them!)
YOUUUUU 🫵🫵🫵🫵 (positive connotations)
Omg hi.... I love your Star Sapphire Jason fic.... like, a lotttt..... and the frankenstein reference in the title.... and the mlp themesong.... 👉👈
Thank you for sharing your writing!!!!!!!! I adore it!!!!!
AHH!! Thank you so much, I’m so glad you’ve enjoyed the story so far! x It’s still so crazy to me that theres actually people out there reading my story lmao
I’m so happy you caught the reference in the title!! The quote just felt so fitting for this story plus it gave me an excuse to mention my favorite book 🤭
Frankenstein references and Jason Todd will forever be a sweet spot of mine; i could deadass write a dissertation about the similarities within the Monster and Jason + Doctor Frankenstein and Bruce.
I’m so glad so many people enjoyed the MLP mentions! I thought it just be a throwaway sentence that nobody really brought up but so many of you loved it!!
Thank YOU for reading and leaving this lovely ask!!!
There genuinely wouldn’t be a fic if it weren’t for you guys, I know myself well enough to know I probably would’ve just kept the rest of the story in my drafts for the rest of my life if it wasn’t for all the support.
I ADORE YOU!!!! 🫵
