#I should probably do my homework...

[julesarefunny]

Redacted headcanons cuz doing homework is for the weak 💪

Guy had a phase during his highschool days where he was REALLY into psychology and considered getting a degree on it when he goes to college.

Asher called David a sigma once during a pack meeting. It was met with silence and a smack on the back of his head (you decide who did the smacking.)

Vincent teases Sam about doing stereotypical cowboy shit like riding a horse and panning for gold, and Sam just grumbles back as a response because he actually has done those things and can't talk back.

Cam really likes the smell of lavender. He has a small lavender-scented felt ball that he brings everywhere in his pocket and sniffs it to calm his nerves.

Sunshine bites their nails when they're anxious or stressed, and when they were locked in the basement of CloseKnit they almost bite their nails till they bled.

Blue eyes intrigue Caelum. Whenever there's someone with blue eyes is in his general vicinity he stares right at them very intensely.

Damien has some grey hairs because of stress and genetics and the damn crew tease him about it. He also has the grampa shoes.

Honey randomly remembers dumb shit Guys says when they're at work and quietly giggles to themselves because Guy is just a dumb little shit that they love.

Giraffes confuse the hell out of Gavin. He refuses to believe that these long-necked, stubby-horned, cheetah horse donkey creature are just walking around somewhere on this planet.

When he was young, Lasko had bumps on his arms and used to pick on them when he was bored, leaving behind small wounds that would later become small scars.

Milo can spell and also has shit handwriting. Some words he can't spell include, but aren't restricted to: College, giraffe, traffic, cigarette, silhouette, television, suspicious, etc, etc. (He spells etc as ect.)

Thank you for coming to my TedTalk

Au where Stan finds the duffle bag.

HEAR ME OUT-

Basically it’s like a week or two before the science fair, Stan is minding his business (sort of) and while he’s going through a closet/cabinet trying to find some supplies, either for the Stan’o’War or his car, he finds a duffle bag. Curious he rummages through the bag, inside are some toiletries, 20 bucks, and clothing- wait a second. Those are his; his shirt, his pants, his socks— all stuff he has been missing for a couple of weeks. He’s confused, scared, and worried.

Why would his stuff be in here? Why are there toiletries? Why is there money? And who put them there? Unfortunately he already has his answer. Pa was always clear that none of his children would continue leech off of him. If you had nothing to prove then you had nothing to take. The conversation behind the principal’a door swarmed through his mind. How long had pa had his bag packed? Was this always the plan? Was Stanley really that worthless?

But that didn’t matter because Ford wouldn’t choose a school over him! They were going to sail the world together and that would be that, to hell with Pa if he wanted Stan gone then fine he didn’t need him, he didn’t need anyone but his brother and the sea!

At first Stan wants to tell Ford about what he found, but decides not to because in the end it won’t be important. So he keeps quiet and decides to take the bag into his car, after all hey 20 bucks and he gets his stuff back! He can’t leave it in his room cause if Pa finds out he was snooping through his stuff, well he’d rather not think about that.

Then the conversation on the swing set happens, and Stan’s head starts spinning. So it wasn’t just Pa who wanted Stan out, Ford was willing to ditch him too. Stan feels betrayed and hurt, he doesn’t know what to say or what to do. He starts to question his theory, did ford help pack his bag? Was that why he had been so distant lately, feeling guilty for letting his Pa kick him out and even helping him with the bag?

Did ma know? Eventually Ford leaves, huffing from Stan’s lack of enthusiasm and response, mumbling about being jealous that he has a better future up ahead, not just some silly childish dream. Stan snaps, not physically, not with his words: just emotionally.

Fine if they don’t want him there then he’ll just leave. That night while everyone is asleep he grabs all of his money, more clothing, a sketch book, his comics— a picture of him and ford on the stan’o’war— and some other things he thinks might be valuable or just handy. And he drives away.

Nobody notices Stanley’s disappearance the next day, not until night has fallen. Ford cheerfully excited with his new full ride scholarship, goes and tells his parents. Caryn is happy, tears of joy falling down her face as she hugs her intelligent baby boy, his father gives a small smile and a nod— he gives his approval. But the mood changes once he questions where Stanley is. No one has seen him in hours, actually his car has been gone since early morning. They wait awake all night, hoping for some sign, some clue!

Filbrick grunts as he walks up to the closet, his eyebrows furrow ever so slightly, his lips pressed in a tight line. He sighs deeply.

Eventually a report is filed, but there is not much they can do, if Stanley ran away then he isn’t missing, and the police refuse to do anything about that.

Anyways thats like yk the beginning of how this whole thing happens but here are some other thoughts and ideas:

Stan:

Without Filbrick telling him he’s not allowed back into the family without a million dollars, Stan isn’t as driven by money as in canon. He doesn’t have a need for large amounts of money therefore he doesn’t have a need to do sketchy jobs just to satisfy his need to have his family back. In other words he doesn’t have as much trauma as in canon and is actually more able to settle down without being on the run or in survival mode. The first couple of months he just spends driving as far away from the East as possible making his way over to New Mexico where he settles down, first as a bar tender then eventually as a mechanic, he lives comfortably in a crummy apartment but hey he doesn’t really need much

Unfortunately he does get bored, even if it’s not with his brother he does crave adventure. And while fixing a this guys truck he overhears of a town called Gravity Falls, where weird creatures tend to reside in. So you guessed it, he picks up and drives from New Mexico over to Gravity Falls Oregon.

He gets a small but nicer apartment this time around and first he works as a mechanic. Immediately he starts to get a sense of the place and its weirdness and he loves it! (Ford would love it here-) .

Since the blind eye isn’t a thing people have two reactions to the weirdness of gravity falls: freak tf out or shrug and go on with their day. Stanley being Stanley gets the great idea to act sort of like a monster hunter/ putting small attractions up with the less violent creatures, not the mystery shack, but more like the mystery circus!

Eventually Stanley gets the name Monster-Lee for his ability to be able to fight off creatures so easily (mostly through bribery or fists)

Ford:

He still leaves for West Tech, but now he's fallen into extreme stress/anxiety and a bit of depression. Why did his brother leave? Why didn't he say anything? Is he okay? Why did he ever let their father get between them, he should've spent more time with him when he had the chance-

Unlike canon, Ford has no resentment/grudges to hold over Stanley, rather he holds that anger towards Filbrick especially when he found out that he had planned to kick Stanley out-- for being the reason Stanley left.

While Ford does still want to study anomalies, he also takes engineering classes, he wants to develop better technology and hopefully resources for run away teens/homeless teens.

While he doesn't meet Fiddleford as his roommate, he does meet him at a robotics convention where they instantly become friends. After college they develop a small company based around the idea of being able to find people, now expanding into different areas.

Ford is a lot more open with the fact the not only is he a twin, but he likes to talk about his younger twin brother who supported him and always stood up for him.

Part of the development with the technology involved finding people in forest dense areas, especially with a lot of caves (please tell me someones seen that one chart) Which then leads them to gravity falls as their first test area, small enough to test their tech, but still forest dense to get sufficient results.

and then these three bozos find each other lol. anyways thats all i got , i thought of this in the shower like 30 minutes ago and decided to procrastinate on my HW writing this lol. anyways

Do you have more Moby Dick: Modern Translation chapters anywhere that certain interested parties (me and everyone with taste) could read?

In reference to this translation of Moby Dick into insufferable modern idiom, in which Ishmael is suddenly shown up in a startling light as a person we’ve actually met and knew well but didn’t really like:

I’m sorry, I haven’t written any more of that! After chapter 1’s mad rush of energy, the book tackles more tricky, boring and unfunny content, including passages that are just uncomfortably problematic in any time; and, like, entire chapters about listening to a church sermon.

A line translation (and that is mostly a very faithful line translation! The only thing I regret not doing was perfectly capturing the fart joke!) apparently has a lot of educational value, and helps to reframe the whole novel. That’s worthy work! But i simply wouldn’t want to do a line translation on the next few chapters. My brain is picking daisies instead, already. I would say: “sorry, I’m abridging this for my own mental health. You’re eligible for a free refund.” In which case the educational value is negligible (you can just read the plot summary online. There’s a really big whale in it.)

Anyone else who wants to take a stab at it (FROM HELL’S HEART) would be welcome and I’ll gladly promote your efforts. It’s just. I am going

Spoilers for all of tma :p

I had a tma time travel fic idea that basically goes like Jon gets sent back in time after mag200 and doesn’t find Martin, so he ditches the institute immediately and goes to current timeline Martin in his flat and Martin being the lovely, too kind man he is is like “OH MY GOD” and future jon is like “HEYY LISTEN IM FROM THE FUTURE AND YOU NEED TO DO THESE THINGS IF YOU WANT YOUR FRIENDS TO LIVE AND IM MOURNING BUT IM AWFUL AT FEELINGS SO IM PROJECTING MY LOVE AND CARE I SHOWED MY MARTIN ON U” and current Martin goes “ok.” So NOW what happens is Martin does stuff with future Jon’s advice, and current Tim and Sasha are so confused and suspicious but oddly enough current Jon isn’t? Instead he’s more kind and friendly to everyone, even Martin (only by a smidgen, he’s not that great)! But Martin is too caught up in whatever future Jon is saying will happen in the future, so he doesn’t quite notice.

Then eventually, the Vittery statement comes in, and Jon assigns it to Martin. Martin tells future Jon of this and he goes “NOOO NONO NOPE tell ur Jon to drop the case immediately , and do not go investigate.” So Martin calls up current Jon with his phone on speaker so future Jon can listen and current Jon is… surprisingly understanding? Like he just sort of, drops the case as soon as Martin mentions it. Actually, he says that he was planning on calling Martin to TELL him to drop it.

Which, is wierd.

Future Jon never remembers even thinking about asking Martin to drop the case, but maybe with Martin changing the timeline already he’s softening up quicker? Well whatever it is, good, Martin is off the case and hopefully will never need to ever meet Jane Prentiss or be so so lonely in his flat. But future Jon has a job to do, he still needs to eliminate Prentiss, and luckily he still has some residual Archivist powers. Not as powerful as in the apocalypse, but maybe alright for one more smiting (he decided to kill Jonah in a different way, preferably taking out his real body in the Panopticon). So he sneaks down to Vittery’s flat in the dead of night, not before telling Martin where he was going (Jon is all about communication now, he WILL make it up to this Martin, he WILL be better). He makes it down and plans to duck into the basement with the same window but… there’s someone(thing?) hunched over the basement window. Jon immediately goes Archivist mode, stalking up to this figure and … wait.

Martin?

No, he shouldn’t be here. Jon TOLD HIM to stay out of this, how dangerous this would be. In a sudden flash of anger he grabs Martin’s shoulder, ready to cuss the man out, and he whips around armed with… a fire extinguisher? And his hair is longer, and his stubble is gruffer, and his eyes are washed out and it’s… it’s his Martin. His Martin wielding a fire extinguisher at his chest, in an old band shirt, and smelling like old books and dust.

They kiss right there on the street, fire extinguisher squeezed between them, certain of crawling worms just inside that window ready to eat their flesh, but they kiss right there and everything is ok because somehow Martin made it here alive, and he didn’t find Jon in the Panopticon so he ditched in tears and went to the only place he could stand. Current Jon had stared at him, pissed, confused, worried, every combination of emotions but he let Martin stay, and Martin told him how to save his friends, to stop taking live statements, to keep the archives in chaos, and to make sure current Martin never goes to Vittery’s flat. And uhhh yeah they kill Jonah somehow and it’s one more for the everyone lives/nobody dies tag!

I had another thought with that one megop sparkling idea I keep bringing up but never fully committing to because I can’t decide on any one idea and at this rate I think I’m just annoying people

But yeah, I had another thought, one that I just thought was funny. I want to draw it out, but I’m lazy and also I have a test tomorrow that I have to study for, so I’m not doing it now. But I’m also impatient, so I’m giving you the bullet points/written version. If I’m sensible, I’ll take this post down after I finish the actual thing so I’m not too repetitive

Anyways, so there’s the kid, who is the child of the two leaders of the Autobot and Decepticon factions, and thus, potentially, holds a lot of value as a hostage and bargaining chip. Granted, I don’t know how known they actually are, there might just be a rumor going around that the two leaders have a secret kid somewhere

But anyways, someone (I don’t know who) gets the idea to capitalize on this, and afterwards calls up Optimus and Megatron, who are up to their usual things, claiming they have taken their sparkling captive and want some demands or other if the two ever want to see them again

Now both of them are very confused by this turn of events. Optimus has no goddamn clue what this guy’s talking about, because he’s pretty sure he knows the two of them definitely don’t have a sparkling. Megatron meanwhile does know they definitely had a sparkling, but he’s cycling through his head the possibilities of if this guy’s telling the truth. Because he was pretty sure no one knew about them, how did this person find out? How many people know? Do they really have their sparkling or is it just a trap to kill them? Or is it some idiot claiming this status, while probably not being aware there is a genuine one out there? Or did they just pick up an innocent bot who just happens to kind of look like them? How close is his secret to getting out, especially to Optimus?

But yeah basically meanwhile, while Megatron is somewhat internally panicking and trying to assess the most likely severity of this situation, Optimus is just like, “…I have absolutely no clue what you’re talking about, Megatron and I don’t have a sparkling, isn’t that right Megatron?”, thinking Megatron is on the same page of this being absolutely absurd as him

But because Megatron is thinking and stopped paying much attention, he doesn’t answer at all. And the silence goes on long enough that it’s getting questionable, especially since Megatron isn’t jumping in to defend his own honor that he did not have a baby with his sworn enemy. His silence is starting to become an admission, and the possibility of this actually being legit is starting to freak Optimus out, because again, he doesn’t know about any of this

Okay explaining it out loud does not bring out the comedy the situation is supposed to have. Probably because there’s no visuals and my description of the narrative rather than just dialogue. So like, the comedy doesn’t happen like it’s supposed to, this isn’t the format for the joke. But the image is funny in my head, okay?

I’ll make the picture either tomorrow or Friday or something, since I have things to do tomorrow. I was just trying to explain it so that you could understand my vision before I can make it

[essektheylyss]

hey I just wanted to say I’ve enjoyed your posts regularly throughout the campaign and was particularly entertained by your finale live blog! thanks for all the good posts—hope you enjoyed the finale and all the essek of it all, and here’s to divergence!

thank you, I'm very glad to entertain! I did really enjoy the finale overall, though of course I cannot say the essek of it all was not my personal highlight of course; I love him and I love that he continues to be truly so long-suffering. being a good person's hard, buddy, I know, but I'm glad you're keeping with it. HERE'S TO DIVERGENCE INDEED. I am so excited for it and I hope there's at least one new wizard to make very stupid choices. :3

I did this instead of my homework that’s due tomorrow

[frankensteinposm0]

ok fine. i admit it. i LOVE style. i fUCKING LOVE THEM SO MUCH THEY'RE LITERALLY MY ENTIRE LIFE.

[saltedcaramelchaos]

Didn’t lock in on homework but I DID get it done and that’s what matters right

it’s probably fine that I spent like 5 hours halfway editing homework and halfway wasting time right-

completely normal and fine that my whole afternoon feels like it was wasted even though I did the thing I needed to, I just didn’t get free time? right-?

@the-ghost-king here r my dakota will headcanons! i hadn't actually sat down to think about it much so this was fun to write out.

- okay so first of all. he's standing rock dakota (because i am) because they're cool and awesome.

- his moms parents are both from there but they moved to texas (around the same time as one of naomi’s aunts) and raised naomi and her siblings (two sisters, three brothers) there mostly but there was a period of like four years where they went back to the rez to take care of naomi's great-grandma after her great-grandpa died. 

- will grew up feeling kinda disconnected from his culture (not from being native, but from being dakota, specifically) because of the whole being born in texas thing. he's native but he’s not TEXAS native. shit, he's not even southern native. he's great plains, but not southern great plains, you know? so there was some disconnect.

- but you better believeeee naomi was hitting the powwow trail in the summers. it's one of the things will misses most about spending summer with his mom.

- he was a little tiny tot fancy dancer OBVIOUSLY. he's got the flash and energy necessary for that one. he stops for a few years in his teen years but ends up going back to it because he misses it a lot.

- he's also one of those people who gets really mad about people implying that frybread is traditional. sort of related, but if he doesn't end up becoming a paramedic (which is what i think he'd do) he would go into public health with a focus on tribal healthcare because it kinda sucks lol.

- his grandparents are boarding school survivors (this is HEAVY projecting btw) and his mom has kind of a weird relationship with them because of it. they've got classic native family problems imo. i'm not gonna go too into it because it is very much just projecting my family history and i do nawttt need to be posting about that on tumblr dot com more than i already have been. point is, his mom doesn't really talk to her parents. she moved in with her aunt and cousins (also in texas) when she was 17 and that's who will visits over holidays. they've got some problems, but they're sweet.

- related to the above, will was baptized catholic. (i KNOW what rick said but i'm ignoring it.) will and nico have very. different relationships to catholicism. for nico it's something that hurt him, for will it's something that hurt his family. it's still nostalgic for both of them though.

- one of will's aunts thought nico was native at first. no, he doesn't REALLY look native. yes, she still kinda thinks so. everyone else calls him "that skinny little wasicu kid". 

- wills hair is naturally dark-ish brown but the whole sun for a dad thing magnified the sunbleaching SO bad and now he's a little blond. it's not his fault :(

- he thinks beadwork is sooo pretty but his hands are too shaky and he's a little too easily distracted  to learn. he does love harvesting quills from roadkill though.

- he makes nico try to potato dance with him. it’s romantic even though they’re pretty bad at it. he’s also fighting for his life trying to teach nico how to do the round dance step. nico just. can’t. it’s so bad.

- SPEAKING OF! will can sing! one of his uncles has a drum group and will would sit with them when he was little and that’s how he learned. he doesn’t have a like, massive repertoire of songs but it’s still fun and he’s good at picking up new ones pretty quick. sometimes he joins the drum group when he’s with his family. also he’s really good at improvising funny little powwow-style songs specifically to make piper laugh.

- my biggest native will hc that i’ve had for months now is that he follows the belief that you only cut your hair in mourning. he hasn't had long hair in a while. he buzzed his hair after the battle of manhattan, and it hasn't really had a chance to truly grow out since then.

I had stupid fun doing this

Thanks @shootingstarrfish !

[deezbignutz]

I was bored and didn't want to do my art homework so I drew this 🤷‍♀️

This is @crasysam0 Apple Jack but human :))))

Hope you like her

[quibbs126]

So I’ve been making this today. I cropped it for this so it’s not the final page, but it was finished enough for me to just put this on its own. But you might see it again on a bigger page

Anyways, I’m showing this because I was trying to redesign my AU characters, as I’ve said before, and this is currently my first attempt

With this design, I almost entirely lifted from Cement Man/Concrete Man in this concept art picture I saved earlier, because I thought the body type would work for someone like Megatron, the only real noticeable difference being the head

Honestly I kind of like it, it’s only maybe a couple things that might need to change. One thing I genuinely don’t know to keep is the circles on his shoulders, because I straight up took them from Concrete Man and they have no reason to be on a Megatron design otherwise. But they aren’t horrible, per se

I don’t really know why I’m posting this outside of prematurely showing off my work, as I am prone to do because of my impatience, other than I guess to ask, does this look better? Is this a good direction to go?

Like here’s the original design for comparison, if that helps in any way

I’m not really sure where to go with these designs, so I guess I’m just asking
