The thing you gotta know about me is I always fuck with a Sentinel AU even though I have never watched the source material (don't even know where to find it, honestly) and I genuinely couldn't tell you what is canon lore and what is just widely accepted fanon lore

All I know is I'm intrigued by the concept and I could smash a hundred of those fics and still want more

[ask-cult-branch]

could you do a boppy scene pls ???

Sentinel: I was never allowed near Poppy when we were little, no one wanted me to make her upset, but after the escape I guess she convinced them to let her cheer me up.

Sentinel: I had just lost everything- again.

Sentinel: I know she's just being nice because she feels bad for me, she's too sweet to leave anyone to be miserable...

Sentinel: but I do appreciate it.

The Dragon by Mairead Triste and Aristide

My final book of Fanfic Writers' Appreciation Day! The Dragon by @the-cimmerians is a casefic horror slashfic (the m/m kind... but really, a bit of both) circa 1999, for the TV show The Sentinel, the origin of the Sentinel/Guide trope in fanfic.

In the late nineties, Sentinel was one of the ubiquitous slash fandoms, up there with due South, X-Files, and Highlander. I fully admit I have only ever seen the pilot and some fanvids, but I absorbed SO much canon and fanon from fic over the years.

At one point, I swear I had a printed, coil bound copy of The Dragon (like the one at the end of this post about Ghosts by Torch) so of course it needed to make its way onto my to-bind list. Gay pining, eventually requited! A serial killer! Folklore monsters!

This was a fun one to play around with some of the visual elements. Black and red and silver for the cover, and I am not sad that the edges got a bit drippy with the splattering. The endpapers are red lokta paper and I went through some contortions with trimming to keep the raw edges on the paper, for the VIBES. The batwing motif fits in with the folklore, and the handprints fit a very specific scene in the story. (THAT one. The under the bed one.) Plus, teeth.

I'm pretty happy overall with how it all came together, and fit with the overall mood and themes of the fic, and with being able to share some older fic and fandoms.

Happy FFWAD, Aristide!

Thunderbolts* Movie review

No Spoilers

A fucking amazing movie. If you're on the fence watch it. If you're a fan of Bucky, Red Guardian any of that watch it.

And the humors really good.

It has amazing mental health themes and is one of the best movies in a while honedtly.

SPOILERS BELOW

SPOILERS

So the way being voided is perfect,

The chemistry of all of them beautiful.

Personal moments are how Sentry was in an abusive household, and when he tried to help his mom would went, "your only making it worse" is brutal.

Yalena having to overcome her trauma, and watching her trauma was gorgeous.

Called that Taskmaster was gonna die in the beginning, and Yalena and Alexi are hella fun.

Seeing the end credit scene of the Fantastic Four ship is awesome.

That's mostly all been a little while, kinda got distracted stuck as draft for a while.

Overall honestly a great movie and would recommend watching this in theaters if you like anything like this.
