thinking about...comics. making comics, specifically. there are a lot of pros and cons when it comes to comic making, and i know i should PROBABLY think more about it than "i wanna draw the pretty things" buuuut....is that not how we all get started anyhow?
so i found out about escapade con and signed up for it so quick i left burn marks on my keyboard. it seems like so much fun and absolutely what i want in a con! by fans for fans....completely blatant in how its very adult oriented.....lots of fun...... if anyones been in it before id love to hear any first person reviews bc im just so pumped
my reaction to being told i cant ship something will always be to ship something inarguably worse out of sheer spite. i dont even have to ever interact with the person! just seeing their posts is enough to make me think pettily and sulkily. i probably wont even talk about it anywhere else! it just satisfies me, thnx brain
a fun life update: i have been furloughed and in quarantine hell for months now. i have been into happy tree friends for ALL of those months. i have written so much stuff. i also am currently writing Extremely Problematic Original Fic and absolutely wishing i had more friends that i could just pleasantly link it to and hear them scream at me in excitement.
oh my god well i dont know if you like these SPECIFIC problems so i will put them under a cut and anyone else is also free to read the garbage that comes out of my ginormous brain on the daily Spoiler: uhhh incest, noncon, just some GARBAGE relationships here i have GOT to say that i started writing this shit as a personal chuckle to myself just a fucking GOOF to see if i could write some good smut and now im in too deep main characters are twins philip and flint morrison. they are privates in [undisclosed war against what is basically a james bond villain]. philip is a relatively normal 18 year old man with a perfectly normal crush on his brother. flint is a complete disaster of pent up rage, destruction, and a completely normal need to possess his brother in every capacity. this first story ive been noodling at is an in media res of their relationship, wherein flint manages to be an awful enough person while drunk that it's just a whole fic thatll have to be tagged with "assumed noncon". am i probably going to have to write more from philips pov spelling out more of their relationship? Probably! god cant stop me! then theres the shithead general who started the whole war, blitz krieg. Yes, Really, No, I Will NOT Be Taking Criticism At This Time. hes a sadist and a bastard and YES, he DOES enjoy fucking with people. ive already written him and philip in a very nonconny type situation and by god, im probably gonna end up doing it again because APPARENTLY my brain hyperfixates on ruining relationships by adding in a third or more party that is just a fucking terrible person. with a treasonous boyfriend. god help me. thats not even getting into the side characters who are fucking disasters in of themselves but like have their lives together a LITTLE BIT MORE I CANT KEEP DOING THIS, I HAVE SO MANY WIPS. I DONT NEED MORE. AND YET!
"sure gem but what do they look like" GLAD YOU ASKED! ABSOLUTELY ALL OF MY PICS ARE OF THE HUMANIZATIONS THAT THEY STEMMED FROM, BECAUSE THATS JUST MY FUCKING LIFE WHEN IT COMES TO OCS! flint....... blitz........................

posting this here bc i couldnt find any appropriate thread! mind the tags Spoiler: TW: assumed noncon, incest, violence, but like it's got a happy ending https://docs.google.com/document/d/1d_PLcSETvEcMVqAI7jcRo-levQcSsQFhMhTS07yK8fk/edit?usp=sharing commenting is ON. fic wrote head empty
was just vibing when i was suddenly able to put thoughts to an annoyance ive had recently people looove saying shit like "oh, gotham would be FIXED by now if only bruce put money into the city instead of running around like a bat" and like, ignoring how many comics explicitly say he DOES help people with his money, i realized why this always annoys me so much. its because its so smug over missing the entire point of the comics. gotham will always be garbage no matter what, because that's what the comics demand for batman to save it. its different in fanworks because of COURSE it is, but in canonical comics (and in everything else besides batman!!!!) the canon DEMANDS that certain logics be ignored, because otherwise the entire thing falls apart. you can act smug and sneering about bruce wayne not giving money to the poor all you want, but that means you also have to admit that everything abt the comics is inherently ridiculous!! but that would mean you wouldnt be able to make the tweet for instaclout huh
