theyre inviting you to play ponies with them ^_^
I love this because I often wonder what their dynamic really was before the crash. were they good friends? was it toxic and manipulative? has curly gone through the same treatment, but downplays it for himself because their relationship? did the abuse only start after? It can only be assumed what the dynamic mightve been based on Curly's response to Anya and the treatment he faced post crash. It's clear that Jimmy has this inherent need for power and enjoys reveling in it, even if it's stolen. but we know nothing of anyone's past other than Swanseas. it could've been a behavior that formed after working in the tulpar or he could've always been this way. maybe he repressed it in the beginning, luring Curly into a false sense of security, and it becoming an on-and-off thing. maybe Curly repressed any memories of Jimmy ever doing anything. Maybe he even told Anya that he'd do something to comfort her, knowing he couldn't; not only because they were "friends", but because he knew what would happen to him.
Either way, Curly is both the witness and victim as you said.
Also I'm incredibly sleep deprived rn so I hope this makes sense
Curly isn’t just a “man protecting a man” from his actions, he’s an amazing juxtaposition of both victim and witness. There is an unspoken story of potential sexual abuse in the relationship between Curly and Jimmy told exclusively through the pill sequences. The choking and gasping as Curly is forced to have pill after pill shoved down his throat while Jimmy gets his own private high off of knowing the power he now holds over the ex-captain. Anya isn’t the only one being forced to take blame from her rapist, Curly experiences a similar experience as Jimmy contemplates cannibalising him, forcing his autonomy over Curly’s own and blaming him for making him do something Curly has no control over.
dunno why but when I think of a possible Gwen Stacy for the noirverse I imagine her as a guy. I feel like if they added a Gwen it would be part of the 2020/fanservice comics, so I guess it's me holding out hope they'd make a canonically gay Peter Parker even though it felt like they really tried going "no! he's straight!" in it.
If any version we're to make him gay, it'd be the og series, but I can't see him being in a relationship so idk. I just don't like what they did to him in the 2020 comics ig. completely stripped him of his character values and traits imo
Been having a lot of thoughts about Gwen Stacy lately, I don't know if I should continue my take on her if she was in the Noirverse. (Her and Harry, I wanna keep their bff streak alive 💔💔)
Gwarry bestfriendism is a need, 6160 did them dirty for making them married.... Should've just made gwen & mj together smh
WHAT is this series about bc our school librarian says that murderbot reminds her of me, and now I'm seeing this
it would love house and you all know it
i did this very long ago and no, I didn't finish it. I gave up. Why? because I drew this with my FINGER, and I got tired. But I don't think I did half bad. guys I didn't even have the ability to do a clipping mask. I barely had functioning layers. so that's why it's bad. but the second is the most spiderverse stylized one? I guess? idk
alt versions below the cut!
here's some other combos i guess.
"how the SHOCK did i end up here"
no yimpy needed
I think some of you forgot that autistic people sometimes act strange and say things that are poorly worded and speak with incorrect tone and misunderstand or miss social cues because they are autistic
Sometimes I wonder what an interaction would be like between 2009 noir and ITSV noir, except they're both stupid teenagers
got carried away
Love this guy. 10/10.
