I am re-reading this series and I figured I would finally draw my headcanons for them. John, my beloved <3

for some reason i prefer reading the second book in a series rather than the first because it's Soo much funnier for Jason Pargin to tell us to not read jdate in spiders and then give us little hints of what happened in jdate. I didn't read jdate first and i prefer it that way. why would i need to know the details of the soy sauce injection when David can just tell a guy "guys head exploded he was everywhere in this trailer after he injected it"

Do you think there’s a spiderman variant where it’s just David Wong (From this book is full of spiders?) standing there just really awkward waving

Cause yk- spiders and such idk it would be funny

The Spider and the Fly (Tony Diterlizzi & Mary Howitt) "The poem itself was referenced in the podcast with regard to the Web on multiple occasions. Also, the illustrations? Fucking hell. This is the irl 'A Guest for Mr. Spider'."

This Book is Full of Spiders (David Wong) "It's all there in the title! The book is full of spiders that attack and control people, spreading through the population like a zombie plague."

been bedridden and bored as hell after surgery so I drew the jdate gang. is this fandom still alive??

[sashasparrow]

anyway the way that pargin incorporates themes about what it means to be human in so many different ways leaves me foaming at the fucking mouth like

you are human you are monster you are more of a human than the humans will ever be, "why do you stay?" "why do you?", "don't look", dave and joy are people because they choose to be people, the real monsters are always the monsters we make of men, is it the same ax?

all of this sandwiched between the best dick jokes you've ever heard

i finally got around to reading tbifos and ohhh my god. oh my god. i am not normal about john. this book does with him EXACTLY what i was hoping for (more real characterization like dave and amy got) and it BREAKS MY HEART but also i’m so happy to see like what’s really going on under his crazy, almost cartoony, personality that he shows to everyone else

!!MAJOR SPOILERS FOR "THIS BOOK IS FULL OF SPIDERS"!!

OBSESSED w/ these quotes from john

i dont even have to caption this, just john realizing that david's "dead" and immediately thinking about how to avenge his death

IN WHAT WAYS JOHN

john would literally rather have amy killed and the entire world frozen in time for eternity, giving up his past and future, in order to spend more time with david???

local tumblr user found dead in miami. its me. i'm tumblr user

@pscentral's event 13: tropes ft. wong, david as the byronic hero

dave has had quite a troubled past and mentions in the epilogue that he may be a sociopath, but still fights to save the world and cares about his friends.

I always feell so wrung out after finishing a book. Something behind the eyes burns, and there's a pit that sinks in the stomach. It's not quite exhaustion, and despair isn't the right word. There's nothing quite like it.
