Little snippet from a vashwood reincarnation comic that I do not have nearly fully fleshed out in my head with written down text that would surely be 50+ pages and which I will probably get to draw never aaaah

i am so obsessed with how like. taken as read the ot3 are at this point. like on the one hand it feels like they've been building up to this for ages but on the other hand it kind of feels like i blinked and we skipped right past some Major Turning Point where everything got spelled out and we're just already in firmly Established Relationship-land. obviously tarvek is too well-protected for anyone to assassinate openly, look how angry his boyfriend and girlfriend are at the idea of anyone threatening him. at this point i'm half-convinced agatha's just going to refer to her boyfriends in passing to someone else and no one's even going to comment on it until van finds out twenty pages later and immediately starts making everyone pay up

Real talk, do you think the writer thought of the consequences of giving the fandom Damian in this costume? 😅

I’m currently afflicted with Terminal Grad School Disease, but I’m really looking forward to the Lackadaisy short and had to fit in an Ivy! Rest assured she’s getting into all sorts of shenanigans that’ll go very smoothly and absolutely not have lasting consequences

BROTHERS

The river Weser ran between the Roman and Cheruscan forces. Arminius came to the bank and halted with his fellow chieftains:— "Had the Caesar come?" he inquired.​ On receiving the reply that he was in presence, he asked to be allowed to speak with his brother. That brother, Flavus by name, was serving in the army, a conspicuous figure both from his loyalty and from the loss of an eye through a wound received some few years before during Tiberius' term of command. Leave was granted, and Stertinius took him down to the river. Walking forward, he was greeted by Arminius; who, dismissing his own escort, demanded that the archers posted along our side of the stream should be also withdrawn. When these had retired, he asked his brother, whence the disfigurement of his face? On being told the place and battle, he inquired what reward he had received. Flavus mentioned his increased pay, the chain, the crown, and other military decorations; Arminius scoffed at the cheap rewards of servitude.

They now began to argue from their opposite points of view. Flavus insisted on "Roman greatness, the power of the Caesar; the heavy penalties for the vanquished; the mercy always waiting for him who submitted himself. Even Arminius' wife and child were not treated as enemies." His brother urged "the sacred call of their country; their ancestral liberty; the gods of their German hearths; and their mother, who prayed, with himself, that he would not choose the title of renegade and traitor to his kindred, to the kindred of his wife, to the whole of his race in fact, before that of their liberator." From this point they drifted, little by little, into recriminations; and not even the intervening river would have prevented a duel, had not Stertinius run up and laid a restraining hand on Flavus, who in the fullness of his anger was calling for his weapons and his horse. On the other side Arminius was visible, shouting threats and challenging to battle: for he kept interjecting much in Latin, as he had seen service in the Roman camp as a captain of native auxiliaries.

Tacitus Annals 2.10-11

there's a lot going on in there! Arminius switching to Latin is a detail that always makes me feel a deep kind of sadness, especially with how it's preceded by mention of their mother. I wonder what she thought of what became of her sons, on opposite sides of everything but still, inescapably, brothers. even when they want to kill each other. there sure are a lot of fucked up and unhappy brothers around. and Arminius asking about Flavus' injury............I also had a whole thing typed out about the horror of imperialism and colonization and the trauma of assimilation but I think this sets the tone better

and also this, just for fun

this post is already a mile long, so lets add another mile to it: a little scene at the start of their conversation! tfw you go in for a hug and your younger brother who also ended up being taller starts roasting your hair style

Happy St. Beanix’s (trial) Day!

I just reread the Chimera Constantine posts and..

Honestly, when I sent in that ask asking if Goldie had ever saved Johnny’s life I was expecting maybe a paragraph if I was lucky, I’m so very glad you guys made an entire series of posts!! An entire comic!!!!!

You guys absolutely amaze me and I love following you and reading all your DC comics

aka, Thank you both so much for sharing your art and AU with the world, I’m so very glad you did~!!

:D!! I'm honestly so thankful of this community of nerds sending in asks for my AU because I treat it as improv story prompts that end up spiraling into something more sometimes! I've always had the Constantine Chimera reveal in mind, but the ask you sent helped me commit to getting it drawn and then inspired the bigger story around it- which I'm so grateful for.

I know it feels so extra to respond to asks with comics (whether fully fledged ambitious comics or lil gags- all take time to make) but it makes me so happy that folks enjoy them! And I just like rewarding people for asking thoughtful stuff about especially the obscure blorbos,,,(yes this is why I keep the Martian asks for such a long time lol) like someone asked about the golden ghost child that appeared in a single issue of Hellblazer?? I gotta draw something, haha.
