“Screech”
Halloween WoC drabble, rated M for mildly spoopy (in a classic ‘scary movie’ way ;P). Dusty & Ripslinger.
-
"Have you seen Rip?"
Skipper shrugged, already half asleep as his old man meds kicked in. "Heckiff I know."
Dusty sighed, his wings slumping over his frame as he blew through his mouth. The one time he was actually looking for him, the Mustang was nowhere to be found.
He rolled back to his own hangar, hoping he would be sleeping in there. He tended to when he was lazy. Which...was pretty much always. It was foolproof, he had to be there. It’s not like he had anywhere else he enjoyed being.
He nosed open the doors to his residence, admiring the tacky Halloween decorations he’d hung up on them, and peered inside. No Ripslinger.
“Dang it!” He mumbled, “Where could he be?”
He rolled in the rest of the way, flicking on the lights and settling in front of the window, with those little sticky window things of a ghost and a spider. Though he was an avid horror fan - at least, after Chug dragged him into it - he still liked to keep things family friendly. “It’s for the kids” he would always say. “What kids?” Skipper would always retaliate.
As he sat back on his wheels admiring the night sky, the radio flickered beside him. Someone calling, at this hour? He rolled a wheel over the receiver,
“Hello?”
“Hello,” came a smooth, masculine voice. He didn’t recognize it.
“Who is this?” Dusty asked, a little skeptical.
“I don’t know, who is this?”
Dusty rolled his eyes, seeing through the façade, “I’m pretty sure you know.”
“Oh do I?”
“Obviously, or else you wouldn’t know how to contact me.”
"Hmm...you're the famous Dusty Crophopper." The stranger admitted.
"This is he," Dusty answered, "but you still didn't answer my question; who are you?"
"A fan of yours," came the strangers reply, slinking around an exact name, "with a question...Do you like scary movies?"
Something cold prickled against Dusty's back, and his wing flaps seemed to stiffen. His eyebrows furrowed a little as he hesitated to continue.
"Yeah, I do. Why?"
"What's your favorite scary movie?"
Dusty glanced behind him at the door. The room was too dimly lit for his liking suddenly, and he moved to the side to get the light.
No power.
"Uhh...can I answer in full in my next Q and A?" He asked, anxious to get off the call and out of the building. There's a short pause and the fleck of static from the other end, before the stranger softly rasped,
"What's wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost."
Dusty tensed on the spot. Could he see him from here!?
"I-I need to go!" Dusty said, rolling over the plate again and closing their conversation. Just as he was nudging the doors open again to slip out into the light of the street lamps, something big and heavy launched itself at him.
"AAAHH!"
Dusty tried to scramble away, but he was pinned under the being. He would have turned around enough to get a good hard bite in him, had he not caught the sound of uncontrollable laughing above him. Snorting, even. And then he realized who was sitting on top of him.
"RIP! THAT'S NOT FUNNY!"
Ripslinger slid back off of him, breaking into a fit of giggles. But he tried to make his response sound like the guy over the phone, despite his mad chuckling.
"Is it- is it..is it Scream, by chance? Is that your favorite SCARY movie?"
"You know I don't like being spooked!" Dusty huffed. Ripslinger shook his head like it would help him stop laughing.
"Nah man, you don't like it because you're so easy to get. You fall for it every time!"
Dusty puffed his cheeks into bubbles, trying to hide the pink sheen on them. "Just for that, I'm not sharing my Halloween candy with you!"
"Okay okay, that's fair," Ripslinger said, having finally calmed himself down, "man, that was so worth it..."
DAY 9 ELEVATOR + FIRE PROMPTS BY @/carsgeek24 and @/penname-artist “Yeah man, I think the elevator’s stuck. Call the fi-” "NO. THEY WILL NOT LET US LIVE IT DOWN.” Who would have though that the cool-headed captain, who leads convoys of firefighters flying down traffic-congested highways without batting an eye, would be the first to absolutely lose it upon police stuck in an elevator?
anyways heres seagrave and pierce along with their assistant halligan this image was in the back of my mind while I was drawing this
for context for anyone who may not know: police and firefighter rivalries are a running joke in the usa(? maybe not just usa) (also they aren’t actually rivals)

WOCtober Teen Superhero Parade Presents: Tanya Spears a.k.a. Power Girl!
(NOTE: This is an updated version of a post from the last year. I wasn’t happy with how it was looking on the visual side so I made a new one)
Tanya possesses a genius level intellect, which helped her gain PhD at the age of 17. She used her scientific knowledge when two lost superheroines from Earth-2 – Power Girl and Huntress – asked for help in returning to their Universe. For yet unexplained reasons, sending them back gave Tanya powers similar to that of Power Girl and an ability to increase her size.
Recommended Readings:
World’s Finest #23-26 – Tanya’s debut and the event which gave her her powers.
Teen Titans #5-24 – While the book is overall mediocre and sometimes stupid (I mean, the team gets manipulated by Manchester “obviously Evil” Black, for fuck’s sake), it’s also the only place where Tanya gets to be featured since her debut appearance and one that largely got to define her.
Deathstroke #14-17 - Having lost her mentor and not being invited to a new incarnation of Teen Titans, Tanya saves the life of a man she mistakes for a superhero. She doesn’t realize that man is actually Deathstroke, world’s deadliest assassin.
Deathstroke #20-ongoing - After having a religious experience Deathstroke tries to turn his life around and turns to Tanya for help. Hoping it will at least keep him from killing people, she joins Deathstroke, Kid Flash, Terra, Jericho and Ravager to form a new superhero team the Defiance. Which some people consider better Teen Titans team that one she wasn’t invited to....

WOCtober Superhero Parade Presents: Kiran Singh a.k.a. Solstice!
Daughter of a pair of Indian archeologists, Kiran was accompanying them to various archeological sites around the world. Which is how she has meet Wonder Girl and even got to aid her against supervillains. After her parents disappeared, apparently kidnapped by a demon, Kiran joined Teen Titans. Much to the dismay of Raven, since a) Solstice’s joyful embrace of her emotions were setting her emphatic powers off and b) Kiran possess superpowers based on pure light, which could could be pretty deadly for Raven.
Recommended Readings:
Teen Titans #89-100 – The story introducing her and her adventures with the team before New 52 comes along and ruins everything.
Secret Six #30-36-Solstice is part of the superhero team assembled to take down Secret Six once and for all.
New 52:
Teen Titans – PSA: Don’t read New 52 Teen Titans, it sucks. I cannot even comprehend what amount of bullshit has been happening in this book. Skip it, ignore it, fuck this book.
