Note: Creator here just to share some sketches I’ve been doing during the lapse of these two last months I believe. Some are new, others are rather old but I often forget to share them here too!
Also mostly showing a bit more of how Courier was as a kid and his relationship with Wayfinder
Headcanon: Vance doesn’t get his fighting skills from his father. He got them from his mother. He was surprised when Vance’s normally docile mother fought back violently, throwing bottles of perfume and other objects on her vanity. She even managed to tip the heavy piece of furniture over on him, momentarily pinning him to the floor. While he was temporarily incapacitated, she was able to snatch the dropped belt and beat him viciously with it, hitting in both the mouth and his crotch, stopping him cold and leaving him in pain on the bedroom floor with Vance. Vance thought it was “awesome” that she stood up to her abuser and aspired to be more like how she was in that incident
I ACTUALLY LIKE THIS i was talking with my friend about it!!
I feel like Vance was only around like. 1 or 2 when this happened so he doesn’t really remember it but his dad always talks about it when he’s bad mouthing Vance’s mom. Vance looks up to Bonnie SO much for this.
imagine sally taking percy to montauk over the years. using the hours that he's asleep to sit along the beachside shore. remembering the nights she had with poseidon. basking in the delicate breeze on a soft bed of sand. stolen kisses under the moonlight. a love she never thought she'd find. and then her world came crashing like the tide. now all she has left of poseidon is a child he can't help her raise. but she loves percy with all her might. and they'll be okay soon enough.
and then imagine sally taking paul to montauk. using the hours he's asleep to sit along the beachside shore. remembering the nights she had with percy. making smores with blue-tinted marshmallows. the two of them staying up too late at night bingeing soap operas. a happiness she never thought she'd be able to provide for her son. and then her world came crashing down once more. now all she has left of percy is an empty bedroom and a missed phone call from the otherside of the country. but word from camp is that annabeth found him. and if that rings true. then they'll be okay soon enough.
Bowing her head in defeat, Queen Alicent surrendered the keys to the castle, and ordered her knights and men-at-arms to lay down their swords. "The city is yours, princess," she is reported to have said, "but you will not hold it long. The rats play when the cat is gone, but my son Aemond will return with fire and blood."
FIRE AND BLOOD by George R.R. Martin
That is insufficient. Aemond has been damaged, permanently, My King. "Good will" cannot make him whole. There is a debt to be paid. I shall have one of her son's eyes in return. He can choose which eye to keep, a privilege he did not grant my son.
— Queen Alicent Hightower

Rio: I've been going on some dates. Dating actually.
Miles: Oh, right.
Rio: And there's this one guy, I've seen him a few times and it's...well, it's going well.
Black Momba and her adopted son, Nomad, who belongs to my friend. I drew the picture for him for his twitter and youtube. Since it's only 2 weeks till Prey is released, these two will stop anyone from spoiling the movie. They will make sure your body won't be found if you do spoil.
👁👁
Anyways, I'm gonna try to work on those short story requests. Just haven't had the motivation to write 😅
My hot take is that it should have been Rebecca, not Ted, who talked to Jamie about his father in 3x11. Here are my reasons:
1. So much of Rebecca's arc is about recovering from an abusive relationship while her abuser is still, somewhat unavoidably, part of her life. Her experience with Rupert and Jamie's experience with his father aren't identical, but she knows better than anyone else at Richmond how it feels to have someone like that turn up at her place of work, and how stressful their planned encounters are, even when they're just in the same large stadium and don't need to directly interact.
2. As the owner of the club, Rebecca almost certainly knows what happened at Wembley, and she's not only well-placed to make practical arrangements like getting James banned from the match (since none of them knew he wouldn't be there) but also, as of 3x10, has come to terms with with her relationship with Rupert — both the good parts and the many, many bad parts — in a way that enables her to interact with him when necessary without massive emotional distress, while also keeping very firm boundaries in place. Basically, she, unlike Ted, could offer advice based on relevant personal experience.
3. Jamie could finally find out that Ted didn't have him sent back to Man City — while it would be nice for Ted to say it, Rebecca is better placed to give the full story, and she and Jamie have a lot in common when it comes to expressing their hurt in a way that leaves a lot of collateral damage.
call me crazy if you want. but i would love to see percy and sally go to therapy together. because these two have so much to unpack. the trauma. the codependency. the separation anxiety. the unspoken, pre-determined grief sally refuses to talk about. the unspoken, blood-coiling anger percy refuses to address. the potential is there. and i need it so badly.
