Venkurory - Kurororopatka

my partner is only 40 but nestled within him is the soul of an elderly man

I imagined Graves as Gaston and thought, "Damn, that means Graves and Ghost are enemies and the former is trying to kill love second, that can't be," and then I remembered the plot of the game.

Today in the shower I was thinking about how absolutely insane soap would be in a sleeping beauty scenario

Meeting you at the celebration of your birth, when he’s just a little boy himself. Markedly unimpressed. And yet, when you’re spirited away to live with your fairies— he feels strangely robbed.

He chases a fulfillment that cannot come to pass. A soldier in many battles, many quests under his belt, all in pursuit of purpose. A stray arrow tucks itself into his skull, and the emptiness grows more cavernous and hungry.

Then, to see a gorgeous thing like you dancing with his cloak, reflected crisp and clear in the pond water of the glen… he’s just a man. Maybe something less, actually. But even if he is a beast, doesn’t he deserve to live?

He delights in how you nearly scream when he pulls you against him.

“Ah’m no stranger, bonnie. Ye said yerself, nae? We met before— jus’ in yer dreams, hen.”

He has half a mind (in more ways than one) to pin you to the forest floor against your precious wildflowers and ravage you senseless, but he’s able to restrain himself when you say you want to see him again. Tomorrow, in the same place. He likes this little game of courting— the wait is bitter, but the fruit is sweet, isn’t it?

And he felt it, when he was with you. The pinpricks of a doll maker’s needle gliding between his ribs. Suturing the tear left in his chest. He’s done being rearranged inside. He’s ready to be put back together.

Thus, the lengths to which he goes to find you. The thorns that bruise and tear, the dracofire scorching his shield.

He’s going to kiss the sleeping princess if it’s the last thing he does.

Peter has fangs, venom, a couple extra sets of eyes that can be hidden behind his bangs as long as they're closed, spinnerets, etc, but can still mostly pass as a human.

He falls into the DC universe and is almost immediately caught by Bad Guys(TM). They know about his powers and go through the process of preparing him to be sold to the highest bidder. The Bats catch wind of the auction and for whatever reason have to pretend to be buyers instead of taking down the operation.

Peter ends up getting bought by the Bats (mostly cuz he was the most dangerous meta on auction and couldn't let him get bought by one of the super villains in attendance) and does not get the memo that he's no longer in danger and has been saved. Well, they did attempt to tell him, but he didn't really believe them.

They set him up in one of their safe houses while they try to take down the trafficking organization.

It ends up being a big enough thing that they need to bring more people in to take the whole organization down.

Peter isn't forgotten while they're dealing with the traffickers, and he's very leery of their presence whenever they show up. He's tried attacking them a handful of times and the ensuing fight never ends in his favor. Slowly, he realizes that they aren't pulling some sort of long con and starts believing that maybe he's safe.

The Bats are slowly growing more and more fond of him as he opens up to them. By the time they've taken down the trafficking ring, he's basically part of the family.

can you do a tutorial on how you draw body hair ,,, im just getting into it but i loveee how you do the wet/sweaty curls ohh fmy god

Tried my best to explain plainly how I do it, enjoy! (+cursed hairless Wreg)

What does this look like in actual work? Something like this (+another cursed hairless Wreg)

A game I worked on is on switch!.... right? well...

So sun haven has been out for a while. Other people have posted about these issues (like my friend kyle and my partner meg a few times)

But heres the thing. It just came out on switch and it still doesn't have credits. It's been out of early access for over a year and playable on steam for even longer and still no credits anywhere (unless you backed the game on kickstarter yay).

And this sucks!! It sucks to have this really nasty feelings about this game. It sucks to be suspicious about WHY there arent credits. It sucks to see the developers looking to hire more and more people and I'm sitting here thinking "are these potential hires okay with never being credited for their work?"

And this isn't just about me and my work. I've mostly moved on from this. But there have been *tons* of people who worked on sun haven despite what they might try to pass off in their discord. I've spoken with a lot of people who worked on the project. Theres a lot of amazing skill that went into this game and it's just sitting there. Who made this game? Well pixel sprout studios! Who works for pixel sprout studios? Good question.

(also posted a bit about this on bluesky)

low quality spiderman pics because hes literally the baby boy ever

so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god

In the spirit of DC transitioning into having Nightwing the Justice League, I need opinions on what would happen if Peter grew up and also became a member of the JL

Constantly compared to his dad? Or gain his on rep? Do they even know? Omg what if I made a series of this

"Spider-man in the Justice League"

I would NOT be offended if someone did this 👀

Clint: When you'r gonna officially adopt Peter, Strak?

Tony: What?

Clint: I wanna be an uncle

Tony: Okay in first place, who said you would be the uncle if I had a child? and in second place... I'M NOT ADOPTING PETER!

Clint: That's not fair! I let you be my children's uncle when you first met them! 😡

Tony: What!? when?- I someday?- YOU'R AVOIDING THE MAIN TOPIC!

Nat: But hey Tony, I wanna be an aunt too

Tony: ???? WT-

Nick: You're putting off this adoption too long, Stark

Tony: Furry, stay out of this, even if I really adopted Peter you wouldn't be his uncle

Steve: Does this apply to me too? :(

Tony: YES

Sam: Me?

Tony: Absolutely

Bucky: I'm not even gonna ask

Tony: Smart

Peter: I won't call any of you uncle

Everyone: 😟

Peter: Except Scott

Scott: :D

Peter: Uncle Scott is cool

Scott 😁

My faves - DND edition?
