Day 9 for huevember~

Decided to draw Jetko again, this time for a very specific AU I've been tweaking over like a feral animal lol. (heavy and I mean heavy rambling under the cut!)

Urk yea, so I worked my butt off of this one! I really pushed myself with the anatomy, since I wanted it to have a bit of sex appeal ngl lol (also, ya know, wanting to get better at drawing blah blah). I don't think I've ever looked at so many refs at once tho holy shit...

I also tried my best to make it look cool and graphical~ It was fun and fucking brutal I think I went through 30+ different variants, no joke LOL. Shoutout to my bestie for all the help and listening to me ramble like a madman. Title from this song: Renegade Master by Wildchild

OKAY SO PLEASE LET ME BE A LOSER

So not sure how to describe this AU, other than it being sort of a silly master thief mixed with action, romance/smut, drama, angst, revenge and conspiracy. I was definitely inspired by a few anime's, but Lupin iii & Cowboy Bebop were the biggest inspos for sure lol.

Not sure of the timeline, but maybe in the 90s? They're also aged up, Jet is about 31yo, and Zuko 23 maybe? YES there's a bit of an age gap as a treat for me. <333

Both of them served in the military, but at different times and units, so they never met before.

Jet joined the army at 18 to basically avoid homelessness, since he was orphaned and didn't have many options. He did, however, want to set up a fund for 'Bee and Longshot while he worked there. I'm still unsure about why he'd leave, but was thinking he got injured (like in S2), and was discharged (I'm also thinkin' toxic situation-ship with Lu Ten? *looming music* the drama!!). Or maybe he was about to uncover something big by mistake, so they accused him of stuff he didn't do, which had him terminated from the military. Or a combo of the 2??

But whoops, also turns out his fund he was putting aside was stolen/was being lied too, and he, 'Bee and Longshot had nothing left to their names. And because governments suck, he wasn't getting his benefits or barely got enough (or if he was terminated, then he'd get nothing).

This obviously left him feeling pissed and helpless. He tried getting normal work, but he didn't have much luck; which eventually led him to robbing a bank out of desperation (+an old military friend reached out to ask for help with the robbery), using his skills he's learned over his life (maybe at the time, he pretended to date Katara as she worked there to get intel? More drama~ Tho he did regret that part;;;). After that first theft, he not only got money for him and the others, but got a huge thrill from it. Since then, he strived to become the worlds greatest thief! He goes after money, jewels, fine art; whatever gives him a challenge (and a good paycut hehe)~

Zuko, like Jet, joined the military as soon as he turned 18; but it was done to get away from his fathers abuse and influence. He thought Ozai had no connections to the military, and he'd be safe to have his own career/life there for a while. (Also thinking Iroh is not in the picture. Either dead or disappeared)

Unfortunately, his father was far more powerful and corrupt than he thought he was. Not entirely sure why again, but thinking this time around, Zuko did uncover something big going on (but only a small glimpse of it). His father then ordered an assassination against Zuko and his unit, to make it look like an accident/war mission gone wrong (also, think 41st division here; except Zuko was in said division).

In an instant, he lost his comrades, all of them killed off because of Ozai. Unfortunately for Ozai, Zuko did survive, but no one knew of that, and thought he was dead/completely burnt away from the blast (also maybe that's how he gets the scar on his face OR chest?? idk yet).

Zuko did manage to run away and hide somewhere, finding random help and took almost a year to recover. During that time, he had a lot of time to think about it, and decided he'd get revenge against his father.

But it wouldn't be an easy feat. Reporting Ozai never did anything for him (the few times he tried when he was younger). He thought simply killing him would suffice, but he wanted Ozai to slowly lose everything. His influence, connections, money, power, etc. He wanted him to suffer, and lose the things he clearly cared more than anything in the world, even his own family.

So after the incident, he took time to train, get more intel, took mercenary jobs so he could build up his own network/gain experience, etc etc. until he eventually felt ready to begin his slow act of revenge; which would entail him starting from the bottom up, taking apart Ozai's regime if you will, by stealing/destroying/killing his connections/assets/companies/etc etc. if that makes sense?

ANYWAYS. Queue in Jetko!

The first time Jet meets Zuko, it's in the middle of a theft; it was night time, Zuko illuminated by the full moon, sirens going off in the background, as Zuko is holding the very thing he was going to steal. Zuko slowly turns to look at him, with nothing but contempt in his eyes. And Jet? INSTANTLY fell in love.

AHAHA in this AU, Jet is absolutely whippeddddd for Zuko. He thinks he's the most handsome, beautiful, badass person he's ever laid eyes on. Jet is convinced Zuko stole his heart, but he doesn't mind.;-) (yes he's a SAP)

Zuko doesn't care for Jet (or anyone for that matter). He's been pretty much alone for years now, only concentrating on his revenge. But Jet seems to pop up here and there, always in the middle of a robbery or whatever else. He comes to learn Jet is the self-proclaimed "worlds greatest thief", which he doesn't care for.

And yet, Jet always seems eager to speak to him, even helping or saving him sometimes. He doesn't get it, and he wonders if the guy was hired by his father. Yet, Jet manages to wiggle his way in Zuko's heart; which scares him, because he doesn't want to forget his anger and hatred.

But he can't help but be pulled in Jet's antics and chaotic heists, from time to time.

I don't think Jet would care if Zuko was the son of Ozai, in this AU. I'd imagine he'd be more angry about what Ozai has done to Zuko (and others) than Zuko's blood. Also, while Jet is definitely whipped, he does grow real feelings for Zuko the more they interact. He enjoys discovering small aspects about him, or the rare times he smirks or chuckles. But he can see there's a lot of hurt in Zuko, and is worried about him; he really wants him to have fun and be happy (hence why he ropes Zuko into his antics/thefts at times, just to see Zuko loosen up a bit).

As for the plot, AHAHA idk yet. Definitely some conspiracies going on, maybe some classic world domination? Idk. But everything is connected in some ways; even the random fine art pieces Jet would steal, would eventually connect to something bigger. Lots of action too and near death scenes aha. Also, Jets and Zukos pasts and presents would come to intertwine at some point. I'm thinking Lu Ten is one nasty villain too, which would add for some delicious drama~

Unto the nsfw aspect LOL (please respect the honour system and only read if you're 18+ pwease T^T)

So in ALL my headcanons/AU's, Jet/Zuko are switches. But I have SUCH a thing for younger men topping older men AHA (also....Jet is hairy too YIPPEE!). So the first time they even kiss, it's Zuko that pulls the shots. I'd imagine Jet would be flirting with Zuko again, and Zuko feeling both fed up but also interested, would grab him by the collar and give Jet a deep kiss; shocking Jet into silence. He'd just smirk, knowing he won, while Jet's brain short circuits lol. OR their first kiss is Zuko slipping Jet some important info through a chip/pill, which does surprise Jet, but he's eager to play the make-out part.;-)

Not even sure how they'd finally give in and fuck lmfao. But Zuko would, again, call the shots the first time; which does things to Jets brain because he's never been topped by a younger guy (he's veryyy into it tho). At some point, Zuko would allow Jet to top him during an emotional moment, I would imagine aha.

Oh also, for this scene in particular.....idk. I have a real fetish for cool looking dudes in cool outfits and looking all badass and homoerotic LMFAOOOOO. I do think it displays their dynamic in this AU pretty good. Jet being smitten/whipped and flirting/teasing, knowing full well he's got Zuko's attention; while Zuko seems in control/indifferent and closed off, but he can't help but be pulled in by Jet. (also I just wanted to draw something ~cool~)

As for the text, I was listening to music and it popped up LOL. Idk, I sometimes let whatever I'm listening too atm dictate stuff for me, especially titles because I suck with those. As for the font choice, I wanted a serif font to make it look a bit more old school, and hopefully jazzy. But I also wanted it edgy, something you could either see on a jazz album or 90s rave/techno/house album.xD (Since I was inspired by both genera's lol) It WAS really hard choosing the right font. Several looked great, one in particular I almost went with, but it felt too modern imo. I also knew I wanted it to be red, but it often took attention away from Jet/Zuko. So I tried my best to use the font to my advantage, and have the viewers eyes automatically go towards their faces by making it more saturated in that spot, like a light source? I also did trace out the font like a loser so it would have a hand-drawn texture.:-V

Also I kinda drew Jet more beefy than I usually imagine him by accident? But I didn't wanna change it bc.....his tits came out real good lol. I def need to draw more for this AU. And I hope Zuko's ass also came out good because god did I struggle.

OKAY SORRY FOR BEING A LOSER IN PUBLIC I'LL SHUT UP NOW LMFAOOOO.

WIP Wednesday

thanks for the tags @paperstorm and @alrightbuckaroo! today for wip wednesday i present to you: nothing! just kidding, i would never do that, i will show you the temperature blanket at the end of this post, but first i have to tell you about my next project that i have been trying to start for 87 years since september. (if you are just here for the blanket, skip to the bottom of the read more.)

so, back in the summer @carlos-in-glasses posted her version of the step by step sweater by florence, and i thought, hey, this would be lovely to make for my grandfather! but the pattern uses wool yarn, and the man will not hand wash a garment. everything he owns has to be able to go in the washer and preferably the dryer, although i could probably convince him to air dry a sweater. maybe.

so anyway, i'm on the hunt for either a cotton or acrylic yarn that is soft enough to be comfortable as a sweater and the right thickness. i have gauge swatched two different yarns at this point. the michael's stores have very limited selections within these parameters, there isn't a joann's close to my college town, and i won't shop at hobby lobby because of the rampant homophobia and smuggling of human remains. so i've been stuck for a while, just endlessly gauge swatching and getting frustrated. (for the non-knitters, a gauge swatch is where you knit a small-ish section to make sure your yarn is the right thickness and you're using the right size needles.)

so then randomly my cousin sends me a youtube short of someone saying they made this sweater with pound of love from lion's brand, which is an acrylic yarn! my yarn woes may be over! of course, the colors i need are not available at the michael's, but that's okay, we're going out on tuesday night and we can check to joann's then. so we go to joann's at like, 7:45. the sign out front clearly says it is open from 9-9. all the light are on inside. the doors, however, are locked. my mom and i stood there for like five minutes knocking on the door and waiting for someone to show up, but it was just locked and seemingly abandoned by whoever had been working there? so anyway i STILL don't have the yarn i need and i am starting to think the universe doesn't want me to make this sweater. luckily i am more stubborn than the universe and i will persevere.

and now, the 2022 temperature blanket! i have been working on this blanket for so long that two of the yarn colors i originally picked have changed formulas lmao. but if i had bought all the yarn i needed originally i wouldn't have any space in my closet for clothes, so oh well.

as a reminder, this is the first temperature blanket, which is january to june 2022. mug for scale. it's very stretched out because it is so heavy. i rarely get to use it now that i'm home because my family loves it and always steals it.

THIS is the current wip. it is currently july through most of october 2022. again, mug for scale. i am finally free from the purgatory of purple and red and now i get to enter endless yellow territory. yippee!

Tease Tidbit Tuesday

Anyone want some Tommy Outsider POV? This is a little first 118 get together at Eddie's place after Buck and Tommy start seeing one another fic. Don't know how I feel about it. But I'm writing it, so. have some.

Tagged by @transboybuckley and also @messyhairdiaz at some point and possibly others. I don't know. Tumblr had me shadowbanned for like a full month, so I apologize for any tags I missed. But I have my blog back and I have words (probably more than I should share because it might be half the fic, but fuck it, why not??)

They make it to Eddie's twenty minutes later than they were supposed to. Tommy’s still fretting a little over the time because it's on him and a late shift, but Buck laughs him off, rolls his eyes when he spots the text Tommy sends Eddie's way, both before and upon their arrival. Buck swings the Jeep into the driveway behind Eddie's truck, and Tommy can't help the way his brows furrow at that, because there are vehicles lining the curb, including some he recognizes, and he would have expected Buck to follow suit. Instead, though, he takes the space like it's his, and hops out of the Jeep with a bounce in his step. “Can you grab the beers?” Buck requests as he pops open the back door to gather the cupcakes Christopher had requested. Tommy doesn't respond, just opens up the door on his own side and starts gathering the cases in the back. When he reaches for the extra six-pack on the floor, Buck stops him with a click of his tongue. “Ah, I'll grab that one.” He scoops it into his free hand, balancing the tray of cupcakes on his other arm. “Eddie's favorite,” he supplies then, when he notices Tommy watching him curiously, like that's somehow supposed to mean more than it does to Tommy. Still, he shrugs it off, and gathers the remaining two cases, following Buck to the house as an odd tightness settles over his shoulders, a telltale sign of anxiety he's not sure why he's feeling. He's been here before; it shouldn't be weird. And yet, there's something about the way Buck just walks in. Doesn't call or knock or even pause. Just pops the door open and heads to the kitchen. And maybe that's not strange. Everyone's in the backyard. No one would have heard a knock at all. But there's something in the comfort Buck feels. Something in the way he takes up space, in the way he just walks in. In the way he rearranges the contents of the refrigerator like it's his own, hiding the six-pack near the back, so no one gets into it before Eddie. And they're Eddie's favorite, but Tommy knows he'll see Buck with one in his hand before the night's over, because he's seen it before. Watched Eddie dole out from the standard stock for everyone else, only to place a matching bottle in Buck's hands after he wanders off to grab his own. It's not something that bothers him. But it's something he's noticed.

Gonna be honest, I'm not sure how much of my taglist I remember because it's been so long, so I apologize to anyone I forget, but I'm tagging @messyhairdiaz @spotsandsocks @shortsighted-owl @reachingforaspark @eddiebabygirldiaz @daffi-990 @elvensorceress and anyone who wants to share.

WIP WEDNESDAY

Another week, another tag game! Please share your last sentence; or, if you don’t have one, share a plot bunny or idea! (OR sketch for your artwork!)

Thank you to @lord-aldhelm and @whitedarkmoonflower for the tag! 💜

It's a long post, so answers under the cut:

Let me start by saying that life has been hard lately, and along with many thoughts running through my head and my doubts of not feeling part of the fandoms I'm in, it has completely robbed me of the joy of writing.

However I feel the muses slowly coming back, and so I went back to work on my famous S3 Sihtric x Albino!Reader fic I should publish on my birthday (which happened almost two months ago). I'm still terrible insecure about this, but reading other Sihtric fics from other amazing moots give me a great boost and I'm resuming the whole writing and with other WIPs I have planned for other characters.

It took me so long to choose which part of the fic to share, but since the first part is the one that satisfied me most, here's a snippet:

His focus faded, however, as a new figure crossed the camp, ignoring the buzz of the group gathered around the fire. Sihtric heard soft footsteps approaching, and a young, beautiful woman - a slave, he guessed from a chain that adorned one of her ankles - passed them silently, a half-empty bowl of food in her hands. What surprised the Dane most was her curious appearance: the first thing he noticed was her hair, white as the purest snow in the early morning, combed into two loose braids that fell softly behind her back. Despite the lack of lightning, he could swear he noticed her pale complexion, and he wondered if she was born with it or was poorly treated by her masters. It was when she turned out that he caught a glimpse of something he had never seen in his whole life.  Sihtric was transfixed by two pairs of blood-red eyes staring back at him, and as much as he wanted to look away, he could not, his heart hammering in his chest like a war drum. His mismatched eyes locked with hers, a pair of twin ruby stones that glowed in the middle of the night, watching him cautiously as if she were prey, ready to flee at the slightest noise. But he could never, oh, he would never let such a stunning creature run away from him: only the gods knew what she had been through to stay with Bloodhair and his men, and the very thought made the Dane sick.

After this, I'm going to work on three new fics (always if the muses don't abandon me).

For now I just have ideas, so I'll share it:

A Daeron x Reader lovely request I had, very fluffy and focused on courtly love (I'm waiting for HBO to release the fucking Daeron's actor before writing it).

A Cregan x Reader in which they're betrothed since childhood and never consumate their marriage. After the end of the Dance and the ascension of Jacaerys to the Iron Throne, one night his wife sneaks in the brothels of the Street of Silk, watching from the other ladies how to please his husband in bed (I swear this idea was way better in my head).

A Bucky x Reader Soulmate AU, in which people watch the world in black and white until they met the right one and the world starts to show with its bright colours. I still don't know if I want to set it between CATWS and CACW or pre TFATWS.

That's it. Bye all-

this is a WIP, so it looks bad rn, but I’m posting it anyway since it’s been 100,000,000 years since I posted art. So, Homestuck fandom, here’s my contribution:

I have shit lighting and the paper was made to be yellow so it kinda looks bad. I also don’t know how to take pictures so there’s that.
