My wife is taking "the Hanukkah menu" so seriously that she's starting to make it sound like a trendy pop-up rather than a holiday and bless her little chef heart, I love that so much.

So, was April in a Hidden City Prison?
Also, I searched Hueso on your blog and got nothing (maybe Run of the Mill was shown in a part but I forgot).
What's up with bone man? Did the turtles talk with him at all before THE HORRORS happened? What about junior?
I would think he closed up shop cause it was too dangerous not to?
Still reeling from this week's events by the way!
April was just in a holding cell at a police station human side.
Bonemans been gone for a long time, and as nice as the fanon interpretation of him and leo's relationship is... it just doesn't apply here. Ultimately, his main priority is him and his people. Leo isn't his.
I couldn't find a natural place to allude to this in comic, i scrapped like ten different lines in part 25 and a scene in part 11 because it just wasn't flowing right. Eventually, i just kinda gave up as it isn't super important to the plot and is just background information really ahaha

“Azul, why did you-?”
“…”
“You burnt every photo. Why?”
“It was embarrassing, Mother.”
“I-“
`I mean, being an octopus is embarrassing, isn’t it?”
“Azul, what did those children say to you?’
“…”
“Azul?”

The Stanley cup thing wouldn't be bad, except it's just been released that they contain lead solder in them which can be exposed if the cup is damaged.
Oops. Well, that's definitely not good.
(Says the woman who wants to raise children in a Victorian house with, among other old toys, a dollhouse made by her great-great-grandfather in the 1920s)
(But I WILL take pains to make sure no lead goes into their mouths, which seems like a step above giving them Convey Drink Into Mouth vessels with a lead risk)

Re-reading one of my fics and having a wee cackle that I'm attuned enough to the writers' style in the show I nailed two of the big love-exchanges from S2.
“Ha,” he blurted out because his mouth was a rebellious dickfuck. “You love something about me. Lame.”
Stede’s chest rose and fell in a big breath. “I love everything about you.”
and
Ed reached up, catching him behind the neck, and tugged him down. “Fucking love you, man.”
Smiling into the kiss, Stede patted his chest again. “I know.”
Also included in this fic: Wee John and Jim with drag acts, Izzy singing, bitchy (affectionate) Izzy and Stede dynamic, Izzy becoming the grumpy but adored figurehead of the crew (Fuckwit Fridays :D), Jackie and Ed being BFFs and more I'm probably forgetting :)
I love my Don't Tell Mama squad so much. My only full modern AU and still my favourite.

hi again! you might already know about this, but i really felt like bringing it up to you!
turns out michael's mom is pretty active on twitter and these past few days she's been engaging nonstop with tweets talking about aziracrow being in love. she's definitelymichael's #1 fan, but i couldn't help noticing the amount of not-about-characters stuff she seems to engage with too. Among tweets talking about Aziraphale's loving stare, queer fans making our usual queer jokes and remarks about them, michael reading fanfiction, miles maitland gifs, there's a good amount of... this. She surely has liked random stuff among the 14.6k rts/likes she has, so i'm attatching some examples of what she's been liking and rting because-- what the hell (i even spotted one of your tweets in the mix!) she even liked a tweet calling AL and GT innefable wives ??
my first thought was how embarrased i'd personally be if my mom was seeing comments online about me and my best buddy being madly in love, let alone engaging with them, but after it settled i'm just... in awe that this probably +70 y/o woman is being this supportive over social media 😭 so heart warming
(btw i'm sorry for randomly popping up into your questions twice today- i have literally made this account after finding yours, feeling a bit less alone in the world)
(Grouping these two Asks together since they are related.)
Ask #1: Hi there! No need at all to apologize for being in my inbox twice in same day. I'm so glad that my blog has been helpful and meaningful to you, and that you felt compelled to write in as a result. Welcome aboard!
So, Mama Sheen. She's been doing this for years--at least since 2019, when I first started following Michael on Twitter--but I will tell you my slightly crackpot theory, which is that for a while back in the day, I thought that maybe her account was actually Michael's secret alt account. (What better place to hide than in plain sight, after all...). I'm not so sure about that now, of course, but it's been really interesting to see her retweeting so much shippy stuff involving Michael and David, and as both you and @tamose pointed out, she especially seems to have ramped it up since GO 2 came out.
I also wanted to touch on you describing Mama Sheen as Michael's #1 fan, because although I wholeheartedly agree, it's a curious thing to me that we can more easily see her as Michael's number one fan than his own girlfriend. It's Mama Sheen--not AL--who has been retweeting all of this, who's been cheering him on, engaging with fan content, and retweeting all things Ineffable Husbands/GO 2. I've written on my blog previously about how I've never really seen AL be supportive of him (and how she spent much of 2020 and 2021 making fun of his appearance/fat-shaming him), as well as how she is not at all part of that polyamorous/throuple dynamic with Michael, David, and Georgia. And while I know the lack of engagement and carefully calculated interactions/posts could be chalked up to her not being able to promote the show due to the SAG strike, that doesn't really excuse her tepid support of Michael himself.
(Also, don't even get me started on the cringeyness of Georgia and AL as Ineffable Wives, not to mention how insulting it is to David and Michael personally and to their work as professionals to suggest that they are replaceable/that Georgia and AL (or anyone else) could play Aziraphale and Crowley and give us the same dynamic and chemistry we saw on screen...)
But yes, going back to Mama Sheen, I have long thought that she seems to ship Michael and David, and how sweet and heartwarming it would be if Michael brought David over for tea or dinner--especially because his own mother passed away several years ago--and no doubt Mama Sheen would dote on him and make sure he's fed and happy. It's especially interesting to contemplate when we see this picture from the Bright Young Things UK premiere in 2003, which almost looks like Mama (and Papa) Sheen posing with Michael and his kilt-wearing Scottish boyfriend:
Beautiful. Well, it's certainly something delightful to think about, at any rate. Whatever the case may be, I fully agree that it is lovely to see Michael's mom being so supportive and accepting of her son, particularly in the midst of such a hostile, anti-LGBTQ climate in the UK. We love you, Mama Sheen! ❤️

I know that Bill was upset that Paul refused to see Mama Mia with him and Alice, but tbh, he did him a favor. Going to see Mama Mia sober is bad enough. Going to see Mama Mia sober with your dad and your girlfriend that he hates is even worse. Going to Mama Mia sober with your dad, your girlfriend that he hates, and your dad's random loser co-worker who actively hates musicals sounds absolutely fucking awful. Really hammers home the fact that Bill has no fucking clue what he's doing lol.
