See as the topic of felinette was brought up? Got any Recs? ☺️

OH ABSOLUTELY I DO

Starting off strong we have:

Hey, Little Songbird by charlietheepic 7 on ao3!

It is one of my favorites! It has Canon Felix for the pairing (i.e. Felix Graham de Vanily) and it has salt for some flavoring!

Moving Forward by Dia_Moon on ao3!

It stars PV Felix i.e. Quantic Kid Felix: commonly known as Felix Culpa! This Felix is personally my favorite and it also has salt added for some flavoring!

New Friends by StarShine583 on ao3!

Felix Culpa but!!! He is Adrien’s cousin, he's friend's with Aurore, Luka, Kagami and Wayne! I love their friend group! Akumanette!!! And of course, salt added for flavoring :)

Fairy Circles by Mercurial_Rain on ao3!

It's a one-shot but very cute! Fae Felix! Baker Mari! Arranged marriage! Salt added for flavoring!

The Sad and The Broken by Dull_Rainbow on ao3!

It has the Quantic kids! As the author put in the notes "let it rain salt" lol. Adrien salt but he does get better eventually! It hasn't been updated in a while but it is still a fav to go and reread old chapters!

Begin Again by Kanzakura on ao3!

New school for Marinette! Quantic kids!!! SALT!!! Protective kwamis!!! LORE! I love it, it's on-going!

She Sits Alone by dandelionflower on ao3 but they are also here if I remember correctly. I can't remember if it's the same username though.

One of my absolute favorites! It's ongoing and full of salt! One reason it's a fav is because it is inspired by and kinda a rewrite of Haunted Mansion, and I'm a sucker for that! Quantic Kids are of course here and I love that! Honestly can't recommend it enough.

These are some of my favorites and I'm sure I'm missing some but! Here they are!

I walked past 5 Canada geese standing in a circle honking at each other yesterday, and all I could imagine was a collection of the different Book!Dazais from BEAST in full Goosamu form all doing the same. A gaggle of aggrieved geese in bolo ties honking out their superiority. Just thought the mental image was important to share. uwu

(spot the Dazai reference ↓)

three reacts to galios from third from the son (if you've read it)?

OF FLIPPING COURSE I’VE READ IT!!!!

As if it could be that easy to convince Gale those stalkers that keep popping up are telling the truth. I know @faiakishi wouldn’t end our pain so soon (which I can certainly appreciate 💕).

Since October is coming up, I'd love to see your take on Jesse and Lukas' halloween costumes 😍 (you don't have to respond immediately, it's still september lol)

IT’S OCTOBER I CAN FINALLY POST 🎉🎉 also these are heavily inspired by your halloween designs from last year 👉👈 bc i literally cannot see them dressing up as anything else after that shdjfkf

and some extras too :]

[min-kit]

Okie seeing this take on here but did Lou in any way confirm that bucktommy is a stepping stone to buddie??

No, I don't have the links to anything he's said, but he's been playing nice about buddie cuz ppl have ofc asked him about them (in the way that "hey is bucktommy a stepping stone for buddie" type way), but he's also kinda gently pressed to give bucktommy a chance. Which only makes sense! Like he's an actor, and 911 is one of the most popular scripted series on television right now. He wants to stick around! (I want him to stick around coughs)

People (certain shippers) just like to say everyone has said bucktommy is a stepping stone for buddie when no one has said that at all, and Tim has in fact said that buddie is not in the works right now. Oliver has said that he doesn't even know if he wants buddie to happen, but that he'd be open to the possibility of it should they decide to take the story in that direction (but has also said he doesn't want to tell the story of a man discovering he is bisexual and automatically be seen as having feelings for his male friends).

But people take all of these other things of them going "I could see this [about buddie]" and taking it as a confirmation of things to come for Buck & Eddie when... that's not what they're saying at all.

I've decided not to worry about it & enjoy the ride Tim is going to take us on & considering he keeps calling BuckTommy a "love story" and a "rom-com", well.....

very self indulgent doodle of a federation!jordan+crumb concept…… jordan is one of the engineers responsible for the census bureau bots’ upkeep and honestly i think crumb just Showed Up one day and they didn’t bother to fire it. who are they to turn down a perfectly good employee

[chiscribbs]

Saw your clone Donnie au and I thought of dramatic Donnie a bit and realized that he probably would act a lot like how Leo does when he’s being dramatic.

Leo claims it’s a twin thing

It's definitely a twin thing. Look at these ridiculous dorks.

They're cut from the same cloth. The co-kings of Drama Town, each even comes with their own spotlight, lol. Donnie's just a bit more theatrical with his dramatization than Leo is, saying things like "alas" and quotin' straight Shakespeare sometimes.

Dramatic Donnie probably acts like he's performing at the Globe 24/7.

How come in some of your Ladybug stories you salt on Tom and Sabine, while in others you keep them as good parents?

Because I go back and forth with them. They are shown to be loving parents, and I want to believe in that, and from what we see, they are to an extent, but you can also view it on another side where they seem attentive and everything but like we see that Marinette is very independent and plus with all the time they spend in the bakery, it could kind of paint a picture of unintentional neglect and such.

So that's kind of why I go back and forth. I want to show both sides I suppose.

Here's the last* of my art ideas right now!

I thought that, since Clover only has 20 HP, they'd probably not have really good defense (but given that they have a Boss Monster-like SOUL, maybe I'm wrong) so I gave them every single piece of armor in the game*! So they now have a DEF stat of 64 and heal 2 HP every turn, which will definitely help them to survive

Warning: I did not include the Patch as that gives 0 defense or the secret Band Pin because I have no idea what it would look like/where it goes as I have never gotten it myself

Also, yes, the Safety Goggles (which I know are actually science safety goggles) are the ones Star gave them during the dual, don't ask how they found them again after their boat funeral, and the Stray Feather is one of their own (I'm assuming it'd come from one of their wings or a random downy feather that just sort of. appeared on them)

Anyways, this was SUPPOSED to be the last one, but I see you have finished the Feisty Four, meaning I got two more ideas! Woohoo! I even had a whole thing prepared for this being the last one, but alas I suppose it must wait until the FF have been finished

Just noticed the goggles' shine is red instead of white, don't know how that happened, might be the transparency of it mixed with Clover's fur and it is actually white or I just somehow accidentally made it red, oh well

PLEAASEE THIS IS SO CUTE??? CLOVER WITH THE GOGGLES AUSGHKA DRESSED FOR SUCCESS (not tripping and dying instantly)

they are SO protected its like wrapping ur kid in bubble wrap… they are ready to take on the world now +50 def

I’m nervous to respond on the actual AG post for personal reasons, but I actually saw a very similar outfit was featured in the jan/feb 1999 edition of the american girl magazine; even if not featured in their doll clothing at the time

Sorry if I made you feel nervous by anything I did! I know it's not that deep; the discussion is just interesting to me.

I should clarify: it's not that those outfits don't look believably 1999. Nothing about them isn't something I'd believe in a fashion spread from that year. It's just that they're...I don't know. Weirdly polished?

Like I said, the hair and makeup look way too mature for a 10-year-old back then, based on my memories of what The Big Kids at my school did. I recall Lip Smackers tinted balm or maybe lip gloss for really fancy occasions. Can't say I saw a ton of girls that age with the two-front-highlights look, even though it was popular with teens. But the clothes aren't wrong, per se.

They're just very. Surface-level, I guess? Again, I'm having trouble articulating my actual objections to the visuals of these dolls. But to me, they look like modern teens mimicking what they think "Y2K Style" looked like. (Again, teens, not 10-year-olds.)

I just. Okay. Here is the Nicki Hoffman doll:

and here is an actual American Girl of Today doll from 1999, wearing the New Year's '99-2000 outfit (a very fashionable look, one assumes, albeit a party dress rather than casual attire):

It just. The newer doll looks fake by comparison. It looks like a parody, even though "stretch knit dress with spaghetti straps and a t-shirt underneath, converse, backwards baseball cap" is an entirely plausible outfit for 1999. And I cannot for the life of me pinpoint why.
