I still think the most devastating enshittification I've ever seen has been picrew. One of the few dress-up game websites left that's not flash-based and it's become DRENCHED in ads. You can't open the home screen without being blasted by at least three or four ads. You can't open two picrews in a row without watching a video ad first. When you have a picrew open the ads cover up the different options and sometimes even stack on each other so you have to hit like 2 or 3 different x buttons to get it to go away, only for more to appear seconds later.

Damn it now I need a silly little romance/fluff of Susie and feminine Sammy!

Curse you anooooon!/j

Could you do it Queen? Pls 🥺

Yeah! Sure!

===========================================

Sammy was the most beautiful person Susie had ever seen. Even as disheveled as he could be at times, his beauty always shone through. He looked like the sort of person one would see in an old Renaissance painting.

He looked like an angel.

He looked just like the angels she'd seen in stained glass windows. A thick mane of long, curly blond hair, a thin, willowy body, delicate and dainty features, and a grace to his movement that could only come from something angelic.

From the moment she'd first seen him, perched on a stool, his lower lip, soft and pink, captured between his teeth as his brow furrowed in thought, she'd been smitten.

"Doesn't he look like an angel?" Susie sighed from her seat at the break room table.

Norman followed her gaze to the coffee machine where Sammy was cursing at the broken device using swear words that had never been heard before by human ears. His curly hair was done up in a messy bun, a pencil hastily stuck through it, his shirt was crumpled and untucked and spattered with ink stains, and the front of his pants was covered with resin.

"An angel?" Norman repeated, somewhat skeptically.

"Yes, an angel." Susie sighed again, leaning her head on her hand.

If she'd had any artistic talent she would have liked to draw the vision of Sammy she had in her mind. Him with a golden halo behind his head, his hair fanned out around him, his slender body clothed in white sheets of fabric, and snow white wings spread out behind him.

Norman's incredulous expression intensified, but he elected not to push the subject. "If you say so," he said.

Susie seemed blissfully unaware of this incredulity, continuing to watch Sammy with metaphorical hearts in her eyes. She wanted more than anything to go up and tell Sammy just how beautiful she found him.

She knew this wouldn't go over well, though, as Sammy could be rather sensitive about his appearance. She imagined he got teased quite a bit about his appearance. She'd certainly seen a few people try it at the studio, but Sammy made sure it was a mistake they never made more than once.

Still, she wanted so badly to tell him how lovely she found him. She didn't want him to feel self-conscious about his appearance. Not when he appeared so divine. He deserved to feel beautiful.

Norman sighed heavily as he watched Susie make doe eyes at the completely oblivious music director. She'd been doing this for nearly a year now, just watching him and pining. He didn't know how much more of it he could take.

"Just tell him how you feel," he said.

"Oh, but he'd be so upset..." Susie immediately shook her head. "You know how he feels about people commenting on his appearance."

"I know how he feels about people teasing him," Norman corrected. "I think hearing what you think would be a different matter."

Susie frowned, chewing on her lip and casting another glance toward Sammy, who had positioned himself against a wall, sipping his coffee sullenly.

"I don't want him to think I'm insulting him..." She said, her voice barely above a whisper.

"He won't," Norman assured her. "And if he does, then that's his problem." He put a hand on her shoulder, his voice softening. "Look, I really think you'll both feel a lot better once you tell him."

"You really think so?" Susie kept chewing on her lip.

Norman smiled and nodded. "I do."

Susie glanced at Sammy again before letting out a long exhale. "Okay..." She gave a little nod. "I... I'll tell him. Tonight."

Norman's smile widened and he patted Susie's shoulder. "You can do it."

"Thanks." Susie smiled nervously.

So, her plan was set.

For the rest of the day, she anxiously anticipated the conversation she would have with Sammy, going over the conversation over and over again in her mind in an attempt to get it right. She could do this, she told herself. Norman believed in her, so she needed to believe in herself. Still, she couldn't help but be nervous. She'd seen how Sammy usually reacted to people commenting on his appearance. She couldn't back down, though. Not when she'd promised Norman she'd try.

When the end of the day finally came, she waited until the music department was mostly empty before approaching Sammy. She didn't want anyone else butting in on the conversation. Sammy was in his office, pouring over some compositions and muttering to himself. He'd let his hair down, and in the dim light of the office, it almost looked like a halo. Susie's breath caught in her throat.

This noise got Sammy's attention, and he turned toward the door. For a moment, he looked annoyed, but when he saw it was Susie he visibly relaxed.

"Ah, Susie." He turned his body to face her. "Did you need something?"

"I... Er..." The words just wouldn't come. Not when he looked so ethereal.

Sammy's brow furrowed in concern. "Are you alright?" He got to his feet, moving closer.

"I... Um... I'm fine," Susie managed to squeak out. "I just... Uh... I wanted to... Um..."

Sammy's frown deepened. "You wanted to... What?"

"I... Uh...." Just spit it out, Susie. Just tell him!

"Are you sure you're alright?" Sammy moved closer.

"Y-Yes, I just..." Susie paused, taking a deep breath. "I... Have something to tell you."

"Something to tell me?" Sammy echoed.

"I just..." She could do this. She could tell him. "I wanted to tell you that... I..." Almost there. Just say it, Susie. "I think you're... beautiful."

There! She did it! She got it out!

She almost didn't want to look at Sammy, but she couldn't tear her eyes away from him. She needed to see his reaction. Needed to see if he would explode.

He didn't.

Sammy was silent, staring at her with an inscrutable expression on his face. Susie felt her stomach drop. That was almost worse than an explosion. Was he hurt? Was he upset? Had she done something wrong?

"This... isn't a joke, is it?" Sammy finally asked. His voice was quiet and there was a fragile quality to it.

"No! Not at all!" Susie said quickly. "From the moment I saw you, I thought you were the most beautiful person I've ever seen! You're like an angel!"

Sammy's eyes widened. "Like... an angel?"

"Yes!" Susie nodded fervently, taking his hands in hers. "You're like an angel, Sammy! I've thought so since the moment I first saw you!"

Sammy opened his mouth to say something, then closed it, and then opened it again. He seemed to be desperately trying to process what he'd been told, his cheeks growing increasingly redder the longer he processed.

"Oh! Uh..." Susie quickly let go of his hands, stumbling back a bit. "I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to come on so strong, I just..." She trailed off, her face going quite red as well.

"No, it's... It's alright..." Sammy awkwardly cleared his throat, ducking his head as he began to fiddle with his tie. "I just... didn't expect that."

"You aren't... upset, are you?" Susie asked nervously.

"No! Not at all!" Sammy assured her. "Just... surprised? No one has ever... called me an angel before."

"Well, maybe they should." Susie couldn't help but smile shyly.

"I think most would agree my behavior is far from angelic." Sammy returned her smile with one of his own, equally shy and uncertain.

"No one's perfect." Susie's smile widened. "Even angels~"

Sammy snorted before quickly trying to compose himself. "Anyway, I... Appreciate the comment. I'm... not used to genuinely being complimented. Maybe I could..." He paused, his cheeks getting red again. "...Return the favor?"

Susie blinked. "Return the favor?"

"Maybe we could... Get... dinner... or something?" Sammy pointedly avoided looking at her, his gaze firmly on the ground as he mumbled out the suggestion.

Susie gasped, lighting up and grabbing Sammy's hands again. "Oh, yes! Yes of course!" She exclaimed, jumping up and down in excitement. "I would love to get dinner with you!"

Sammy yelped as he was dragged along with her, but he smiled nervously. "Great! That's great! I... We can figure out a time later. Not... Not tonight."

"Right, of course." Susie stopped jumping, although she didn't stop smiling. "Not tonight. There's been enough excitement for tonight."

"Enough excitement for tonight indeed." Sammy laughed weakly.

"I should probably be getting home." Susie tentatively removed her hands from Sammy's. "I'll... see you tomorrow?"

"See you tomorrow," Sammy agreed.

Susie turned to the door to leave, only to pause. Then, quickly, she darted back, pressed a kiss to Sammy's cheek, and darted out the door giggling. Sammy stood there for a moment or two, once again processing what had just happened.

Then, he returned to his desk, burying his face in his hands.

He was going to have a hard time sleeping tonight.

“hey what if sammy and susie dressed as some famous 1930s couple for halloween haha wouldn’t that be cute”

Happy birthday Sammy Lawrence 🎉🫶🏼❤️

[mybatimblog]

Having an intense brainrot on this guy again.

Also, with the upcoming release of DCTL's graphic novel (which will most likely do irreparable damage to the already weak health of the fandom), I decided to draw a few sketches of our favorite music director based on references of the one I believe to be the irl Sammy Lawrence : Mr. Jude Law in Gattaca, 1997 !

I don’t really know how to express it but his features SCREAMS Sammy to me : the scowl, the delicate yet virile face, the cold beauty marked by an underlying anger... IT’S LITERALLY HIM.

[mybatimblog]

lovely character. i need him to finally break down sobbing clutching his chest like it'll stop the pain crumpling to the floor begging God to either help him or let him die
