But I can’t draw…

Don’t worry! There is so much more you can do! 

All forms of media/art are allowed! Editing a video, writing a fanfiction, formulating a headcanon or an analysis. Editing a graphic or a creating a moodboard. Recording an audio or a musical composition, creating a playlist of songs, get out your cosplay or do a photo shooting with some merch you own, maybe give a recommendation to a fanart or fanfiction!  Let’s get creative! Everything is welcome!

Don’t be shy with liking and reblogging each other’s work.

Will you reblog my work?

Heck yeah! Please use the hashtag #ZekinaWeek22 as the first tag or mention this blog in your description @TacosAndTouchtanks

Why Zekina and not Zina?

Glad you asked, phantom person that I use as a stand-in!

Zināʾ (زِنَاء) or zinah (زِنًى or زِنًا) is an Islamic legal term referring to unlawful sexual intercourse. (Wikipedia)

I think it would be disrespectful towards islamic peoples believes to use it as a ship name as well as considering the meaning “unlawful sex” of all kinds… I don’t think it would be a good ship name.

Meanwhile Zekina is only a name and surname in a couple of countries, so basically free for grabs! Let’s go with that!

Rules:

1. Everyone is welcome to participate.

2. This is an event to celebrate the romantic involvement of Tina and Zeke from the show Bob’s Burgers, but portrayals of them as friends are welcome too! (But no other ships with either of them.)

3. No reposting of other peoples work! (Sharing a link is fine, using graphics and scenes from the show is also fine.)

4. You do not need to have a tumblr blog to participate. However, if you are not blogging on tumblr and would like to see your work featured on this blog, I need you to submit it. (You can stay anonymous if you want to)

5. Sharing links to your works from other social media sites (Ao3, twitter, instagram) as a submission is absolutely fine

6. Don’t worry if you’re no native speaker. Use the language you feel most comfortable with!

7. (I don’t feel like it should have to be said but…) No bashing on other artists’ works or harassing others. Zeke and Tina would never approve of bullying, and neither will I.

8. Please help to spread the word with spreading this post.

9. Have fun! <3

Yes, please! I love that! Even if you never turn this prompt into a real fanfiction I would absolutely love to read Tinelle's version of the song "Belle". Also, you're welcome

Booty and the Beast Prompt Idea

I recently got into Bob’s Burger’s because I sort of kin Tina and now I ship TinaxZeke because I don’t get enough INFPxESTP ships in fiction and I like their dynamic. Anyway basically, my prompt idea is that is takes places after the movie and Tina is finally has some form of relationship with Jimmy Jr. Her fears have come to fruition when Jimmy Jr in real life isn’t bringing as much to the table as she hoped for. Tina begins to notice how supportive Zeke has been to her over the time she’s known him after he helps her work through a less than stellar date with Jimmy Jr. Tina used to find Zeke gross (still somewhat does) and she is still up to her butt with JJu. Yet, the more she spent time with Zeke, the more she noticed that while a troublemaker, was actually a sweet guy.  So to work through her feelings she begins writing her spicy version of movie “Beauty and the Beast” which she retitled, “Booty and the Beast. It would be a mixture of the Disney movie and the original story is Disney movie was based on. Here’s the cast so far. Tina Belcher - Tinelle, the village weirdo that no gets because she writes erotic villager fiction of everyone in town. Gene and Louise Belcer- Tinelle’s greedy siblings, though they still are pretty great siblings even if they have expensive taste. Bob Belcher (or Mr. Fishoeder if you want that live action movie reference) - Bobrice (or Fishrice), the loving father that tries to get everything his kids ask for even though none of them are actually the easiest for him to get. Zeke - The Beast who originally wanted Tina to get rid of the curse but is actually a pretty decent guy and let Tinelle’s family live in his palace while he tries to court Tinelle. The beast gets along with everyone in Tinelle’s family. Linda Belcher - The Singing Rose (there’s a singing rose in the original story) Jimmy Jr - Jimston Jr., Tinelle’s fiancé whose the best dancer in town. Tinelle eagerly agreed to marry him because her family is dirt poor and needs a better place to live, Jimston Jr is hot, and Jimston Jr. is the only one that’s willing to marry her in the poor, provincial town because everyone else thinks she’s a pervy weirdo. The conflict in the story would be Tinelle trying super hard to not see the beast for who he truly is because her heart belongs to Jimston Jr. It doesn’t matter how everyone in her family loves the beast, how supportive/respectful the beast is of Tinelle, or even how she might even realized she might have a furry fetish. None of that matters because her heart belongs to Jimston Jr and the beast will always be the beast inside and out. Knowing that Tinelle wasn’t going to change her mind, the beast gave up his chance of being human again and more importantly, be with with a gal he thought was pretty cool to be where she truly wanted to be. Her family was okay with leaving too because they just wanted Tinelle to be happy just as much as the beast did. Tinelle got what she wanted in the end, but seeing the beast one last time before going to Jimston Jr. she felt melancholy and empty. In real life, Tina stops writing her fanfiction for a little while because it got too real for her and got writer’s block. She didn’t know how she wanted to end her story or what to do in real life anymore. She wishes she could go back to when it was easier and her feelings weren’t all messed up. That’s all I have for the prompt idea so far, so it’s up to you how you want to end it. Though I just recommend you end it how you feel a Bob’s Burgers episode would end it. Just don’t forget to be put some humor in it because I don’t want it all angsty. The show is a comedy after all.

MHA Fankid Quirk Experiments Part 3:

I did some more fankid quirk experiments for fun. Though I didn't even bother with giving them hero names or go into what I think they would look like. I mostly just wanted to get the quirk ideas out there asap. Maybe I'll edit this post later to give them hero names or describe what I think they would look like. For now, I'm content with what I have. I think I'm out of interesting quirk combo ideas for now. Izuku MidoriyaxMelissa Shield-

Hisoku (春足):

Pronouns: He/Him

Quirk: Orbital pull, this quirk gives Hisoku the ability to set his eyes on his target and set the target as his orbit and manipulate his own gravity to get to his target faster with great dexterity and precision. This quirk is a fusion between Inko Midoriya’s quirk and David Shield’s quirk.

I think while the quirk would make him run faster and jump higher, he does not get stronger. So his drawback is that he needs to be careful of what he’s setting his target on so he doesn’t get himself hurt or worse from the impact. The point of the quirk is that Hisoku is always ready to run to help those in need and catch somebody if they fall (within his weight limit).

Kani (火新):

Pronouns: She/Her

Quirk: Heroic spark, (based on a combination of Hisashi’s fire breath and Inko’s quirk) whenever Kani touches someone (or perhaps even herself), they would receive a boost of energy or confidence, making them more capable of handling challenges. This could manifest as temporary increased physical strength, mental clarity, or speed—basically becoming "fired up" to succeed. The more she has won in the past, the stronger her ability to "fire up" others, but as the stakes get higher, the effect becomes less pronounced. If she ever considers anything she did recently a loss, she’s back at square one with her quirk and needs to win more minor challenges so her quirk can help increase the odds of a battle as much as it can.

Once her quirk gets stronger, she won’t even need to touch people to give them a mental and physical boost. She can use her voice to give fired-up speeches that affect multiple people at once.

Tenya IidaxMei Hatsume-

Amami (天光):

Pronouns: She/Her

Quirk: Engine, like Tenya’s quirk, Amami has her engine quirk on the sides of her head (gives off the vibe of axolotl gills almost). However, instead of using the engine to propel herself faster, the engine acts as a generator to fuel a super-powered version of her brain. When using her quirk, her brain acts as a supercomputer and can create near-perfect predictions of potential outcomes and solutions for problems based on the information she is provided. However, since it’s based on only the information she’s received, her hypotheses aren’t 100% accurate thanks to unaccounted-for variables that could occur in her thought process.

The drawback of this is that if she uses the superpowered version of her brain too long, the engine overheats, and she gets massive headaches from dehydration. After that, she gets grouchy and doesn’t want to tell anybody anything until her headache is gone and she has something to drink something to refuel herself (grape juice, chocolate milk, or orange juice are preferable)

Tensakan (天目):

Pronouns: He/Him

Quirk: Camera, like Mei’s zoom quirk, Tensakan can “see” everything in an area within 5 kilometers. Even if he’s trapped in a concrete, empty room with no windows, Tensakan can still sense if there’s life outside his general area based on body heat. He can also project holograms of what he’s seen through his eyes like a projector. Though projections only work if he actually saw it. It doesn’t work if he only saw it through body heat when his vision was obstructed.

His other drawback is that his vision gets blurry if he uses his quirk too long and needs a mental break until his eyes clear up again. Apple juice, carrot juice, and orange juice help him refuel and get his vision back faster.

Ojiro MashiraoxToru Hagakure-

Akibi (晶尾):

Pronouns: She/Her

Quirk: Invisible tail, that’s it. The drawback is she can’t wear anything but skirts or dresses. It’s so she can properly use her quirk without being exposed and embarrassingly showing her backside. However, I suppose the other workaround Akibi could try trench coats or capes if she wants to wear pants.

Minoru MinetaxPony Tsunotori (I really, really can’t stand Mineta don’t get me wrong. I just had an idea and Pony was the best option for me to help bring that idea to life. Also, Mineta deserves a taste of his own medicine by having a daughter who’s just as perverted as he was! Karmic justice baby! Also, not for nothing, Pony is not really innocent either because she did make an insensitive comment to Shoji that aged like milk as the series continued. ((Doesn’t mean I think she deserves to be with Mineta because of it, I just think it would be funny for Mineta of all characters to call her out on her discrimination. XD)) I hate that the potential for the ship name, MinePony is so good but Mineta sucks so much. I’m doing it for the quirk idea though!)-

Nyumi (乳珠):

Pronouns: She/Her

Quirk: Bubble cannon, Nyumi’s horns look like similar to boba straws. Unlike Pony’s quirk, her horns don’t detach but her bubbly hair still does. She uses her straw-like horns as cannons to shoot her balls with more precision and force than Mineta does. When using her quirk the balls pop on impact and a sticky substance bursts out of the balls that cover more area than Mineta’s sticky balls do. However, she still can throw her balls regularly if she doesn’t need them to pop.

Neito MonomaxCamie Utsushimi (they literally never met but if she can handle Bakugo, she can handle Monoma. Plus, there’s so much quirk gene mixing potential with this pair!)

Eisha (映者)

Pronouns: They/Them

Quirk: Method Actor, with this quirk Eisha is able to copy the appearance and quirk of a person to an extent. The quirk activates when Eisha can see themself in a person and get into character before they take on the visual/audio appearance and quirk of their target. However, despite looking like the person they’re acting as, their appearance is just a projection with limited mass and it’s still them under the illusion. So even if a person touches them when they're using their quirk and it feels real, the illusion has about as much durability as Eisha does in their regular form. They can only copy one quirk at a time when they’re using their quirk, and they can only change to a different quirk once they let go of the illusion.

Even then they need time to refresh after spending so much time in character.  Like their father, Neito the quirk they copy is less powerful than the original. They can only use quirks that don’t require the years of physical training it would take to get to where the original is. The copied quirk only lasts about 5 minutes, but the illusion lasts longer as long as Eisha doesn’t break character or doesn’t take too much damage while in disguise.

I have Asperger's syndrome myself, but I feel I could still use this just in case my “write what you know” method is more underdeveloped than I thought. Anyway, this will definitely be useful.

writing an autistic character when you are not autistic - a masterpost

completely double spaced version on google docs here – this post is more blocky for the sake of people’s dashboards, but still long so people will be less likely to glaze over it. my apologies if that makes it hard to read

things to look for and avoid in an autistic character

• symptoms only manifesting as “nonverbal and rocking” • super smart / living calculator • super dumb / doesn’t understand anything • all the symptoms you can come up with for them are “awkward” and “has special interest(s)” (please do more research) • trains, technology, and/or math as special interests • acting like a child • getting treated like a baby • unreasonably cruel and uncaring about others’ reactions to them being cruel • if they’re comparable to sheldon from the big bang theory, start over • animal comparisons • a lack of feelings • please no stories about what it’s like to be autistic told by allistics

the right way to write an autistic person

• lots of symptoms, including secondary ones not included on a general diagnosis requirement list (here’s a list i rather like that was made by an autistic person – their blog is also a good resource) • having a good amount of general knowledge and actually talking about it (i cannot believe that i have to say this) • talking about things outside of special interests (again…. come on……….) (special interests are usually the default things our brains go to when theres no stimulation or we want to entertain ourselves – it isn’t literally all we think or talk about ever. if a conversation has no connections to a special interest, reconsider having your autistic character bring it up in a context that is not an introduction.) • explicitly expressed to be capable of attraction and romantic feelings – if your character is an adult, add sexual feelings to this point • capable of general functioning, just with a disability that makes it more difficult – not a walking disability (….sigh) • a wide amount of feelings and emotional turmoil (but perhaps only being able to express it in limited ways) • we’re people • just people whose brains are wired differently

things to avoid in research for an autistic character

• autism moms / autism blogs and websites not run by autistic people • any affiliation with autism $peaks means you should walk away and never look back • a scientist trying to create explanations for what autistic people do without actually asking / not mentioning asking autistic people • anything about a cure for autism • a person that “worked with autistic kids” phrased in the same way as “worked with animals” • talking about autistic people as if they are mysteries, are like animals, or are otherwise othered weirdos instead of people

things to look for in research for an autistic character

• actual autistic people talking about their experiences and symptoms • just stick to that and you’re good but it’s hard to find sometimes ngl. just look for the above red flags

things i would personally like to see in an autistic character

• less easy to swallow sadness and more destructive anger. i would love to see a canonically autistic character who was frustrated easily by small things and had trouble communicating why • not a story about being autistic, a story that happens to have a character or characters who are autistic – it isn’t pointed out or questioned, they’re right at home with the rest of the cast and not othered (a la symmetra from overwatch) • intensive sensory issues / small sounds making large reactions • clear communications about not liking x sensory thing (for example being touched) • poor motor skills / clumsiness and not being laughed at for it • walking funny (body bent downwards, walking very fast, walking slowly, big strides, shuffling, stiffness, etc)  – no one treats it as if it’s funny or something totally strange • a big personality that has a presence so they can’t be cast aside (but feel free to have quiet characters too) – if this was along with being nonverbal they would probably leap to being one of my favorite characters ever • a fear of asking for clarification on sarcasm or jokes because of past experiences and an arc about the character becoming more comfortable asking questions

>> if any fellow autistic people want to add something, feel free <<

allistics are encouraged to rb this

I know 2 out of 5 is art you already have seen on my blog, but I just have them there for size comparison. I wish I had enough time to make new models for the two, but I’m a slow artist and I don’t have the winter off until the 21st.

On the plus side, I get to show the other three cuties for everybody. You have preschool age, Debora, before she realized how cruel the world can be to somebody like her. You have depressed, thirteen-year-old Debora awkwardly adjusting to her teen body. Lastly, you have content, mellowed out, adult Debora finally accepting herself and happy with her life.

I hope that you like my design choice for these new ages for Debora. I hope to update this soon maybe.

Edit 1/192020:

I added a new age to the chart. It’s the 10-11 age.

Edit 6/112020:

I added a new age to the chart. It’s the 17-18 age.

Cute story that I think really captures the humor of the show well!

Summary:

And Zeke smelled so good, like cinnamon and sweat.

Tina stored that information for later.

I Just Really Want to Talk About This Scene From “Mazel Tina”

I don't know how fans feel about this episode in general (I mean, Tina wasn't her most selfless this episode and poor Louise had to be stuck with Tammy all because Tina decided to do nothing about it) The one highlight of the episode I wanted to talk about was this moment with Zeke. It was so cute! Zeke was such a ham, hyper, and I love it! I'm just going to copy and paste the frames that I saved and add commentary to them. Here we go!

Man, why do you look so nervous in this frame Zeke?! Also to add, in the establishing shot before this frame, Zeke was clearly closer to the table than Jimmy Jr was. Why in such a hurry Zeke, hmm X3!? Okay, enough shippy jokes. The reasonable explanation for this is Zeke is hyped up on sugar and is just antsy from that while probably wanting to eat a burger asap. I can still indulge in the thought of Zeke being nervous around Tina though and no one can stop me!

Zeke putting his arm first on the table just proves further that Zeke was closer to the table than Jimmy Jr. was. Zeke just really wants that burger. Still antsy from the 3 sugary drinks (Tammy-tinis) he had.

There goes Tina again, still hating having to fight for Jimmy Jr.'s attention again because Zeke's just chilling. My how far she has come. Okay, now that the next frames are just me highlighting Zeke's adorable hyper moments.

Look he be soaring from his sugar high! XD

Look at this boy! How can you hate such a happy, hyper kid?!

:]! That is all I have to say about this one.

I just really wanted to share my love for this one scene of Zeke. He had no reason to be that cute with his sugar rush explosion! Protect this tiny, gremlin child!

Zekina Touch Tank Idea I Could Use Help On:

Okay, it's so super clear to me that the sea cucumber is the perfect sea creature to represent Zeke. There's just so much about the sea cucumber that relates to Zeke in hilarious ways. The most important one is that the sea cucumber is that it's a creature that is always helping others but rarely gets anything back. The majority of their relationships are more commensal than symbiotic, they aren't being harmed but they aren't gaining anything either. You can also do the pun Zeke u cumber. It's not the best pun but it's something. XD

My problem is that I don't know which sea creature could represent Tina. I have some candidates but I would really like some input as well because I'm not sure which is the best to choose? Here's the list I have so far. 1. Tuna (for the pun for Tina and an opportunity for Zeke to say "you tuna me on". A redemption for his canned Tina joke and general attitude in "Presto Tina-O" lol) 2. Kina (a New Zealand sea urchin and another Tina pun opportunity and an "I'm kina you" joke ((like I'm keen on you if that wasn't obvious already)), Sea urchins do eat sea cucumbers, but they also are part of the same family as sea cucumbers and starfish so make of that what you will) 3. Hermit Crab (least favorite option. While Saucy the hermit carb is important to Zekina lore, hermit crabs eat sea cucumbers so not a good choice) 4. Shrimp (Nothing pun-worthy, but shrimp does technically have the most symbiotic relationship to sea cucumbers, the shrimp still benefits more though. There's also something poetic you can do with shrimp seeing more colors than other creatures) 5. Sea Cucumber (I mean, I guess Tina probably could see herself as a sea cucumber as well, but this is my second least favorite option because it's boring) So I would appreciate any feedback on which one you like best for Tina. I really want a sea creature that fits Tina for her and Zeke's dynamic. My favorite is between the shrimp and the kina. Let the aquatic themes prevail for these two! XD

To My Fellow INFP Brethren

If you’re ever having trouble remembering your function order here’s a sentence to help you.

“INFPs are a FiNe SiTe to behold.”
