A-

@possumsarenice absolutely, no doubt about it.

Nobody tell madmutts that I am only bothering them cause they give off surrogate dad and uncle vibes

And here, we have the lovely parents.....

......totally confused about how this even happened

My thoughts about the kid are below the cut if you wanna read

I'll be honest, I never gave em a name so if you're reading this feel free to just come up with one in the comments or something.

Aside from that, I did try to keep some things in mind when I drew them. I wanted to use triangles to make up the entire body but I thought it looked off and ended up harnessing Jax's twink energy. In hindsight I could've given the kid yellow ears and be done w/ it, but I couldn't resist reopening old wounds for good ol' Billy. Sometimes kids adopt traits from their grandparents and I wanted to reference Bill's parents in some way. Kinda makes me wonder if Bill would even accept this kid. Allow me to go on a little tangent if you please.

The creator of Gravity Falls himself answered that Bill's character is that of a spoiled kid that never grew up and that's completely true, but there's something deeper going on. Bill's immaturity stems from a deeply traumatic experience: destroying his own universe. We don't know specifically how or why he did it, but it still happened, and while Bill plays it off as "liberating" the flat minds of the people of his flat world in the show, we can see in his book that Bill regrets what he did. The benevolent God of Gravity Falls, The Axolotl, confirms it: "Saw his own dimension burn/Misses home but can't return." Bill even calls himself a monster in when we read his book, one that would eat Ford alive.

How does this relate to Bill's immaturity? Bill lives in denial. He can't face the reality that he killed everyone he knew and loved, so he tries to drown out their screams with unrestrained chaos. He needs to be distracted so he doesn't have to think about them anymore. Bill doesn't want to grow up, because that would mean acknowledging that he did and still does awful things to those around him. @praisetheaxolotl goes into better detail about Bill and his issues, if you're a Gravity Falls fan then you should take a look at their stuff I think they're awesome.

Back to the beginning, what does all this mean for the kid? Well, Bill probably isn't gonna care too much for their health or mental state. He may try to encourage them act as he does. Uncaring of others and disregarding guilt or remorse in favor of "fun." Honestly, Jax may do the same though I can't be absolutely sure of that. We don't have much on Jax's character when compared to Bill.

Man, it really is hard to make an interesting character with no trauma whatsoever. Guess that'll be something for me to try in the future.

....I drew a Bill Jax fankid....

How da heck did I not see this???? That looks so good???????

!!CW!! Broken bones and blood

I was listening to an edgy song and remembered “puppeteer Gaggle” from @sm-baby’s Carnival AU, and and got an idea

I’m planning on making a digital version that’s a bit more… intense but have this for now

Bonus:

If you can’t make it out Gaggle is saying “I had a bad day, so blorbo had to suffer lol (dw I’ll write some fluff when he respawns)

Chances are DaVinci or Niccolo would talk to him. Blue probably won't explain his insecurities (chances are he doesn't even realize he has them) and brush the whole event off, but he will talk about them eventually. Maybe after the Kraang Invasion? After Yoshi dies? Idk but feelings will be shared. Blue still remembers the promise.

Mutant Mashup thingy

(This has been sitting in my drafts for months rip-)

Since all the turtles and even the Splinters and Aprils grew up in a very different environment, they would obviously act a little different. So here’s my ideas on how.

Mutant Mashup AU by me and @sillyandquest

Oldest to youngest (as said here) DaVinci -> Red -> Sanzio -> Niccolo -> Purple -> Blue -> Simoni -> Orange

Both DaVinci and Red were the protectors. However, DaVinci was more offensive and Red as was more defensive. This was because Red had to worry about accidentally hurting people due to his strength and was pretty intimidating as is, but DaVinci didn’t. So DaVinci is slightly more trigger happy and Red looks for more peaceful situations. It’s not a major change, but if they meet their canon counterparts they’d quickly release the differences. This ties into Red’s mystic abilities too, as his holograms are more shield focused then in canon. Niccolo and Orange and holding their entire families together. As said here, Niccolo would help calm his siblings and cousins down when the Splinters fought, and Orange already had a complex about this in canon. Neither of them would be able to do this on their own (with how big their family is now) so they work together to keep everyone happy (even if they aren’t).

I’ve noticed the 2012 boys are big on teasing each other while the Rise boys are a lot softer to each other (minus Blue and Purple). So I’d imagine in this dynamic they’d both be in the middle ground of their canon dynamics. The Rise boys tease each other a lot more but are still softer then canon 2012, but the 2012 are softer to each other but still tease each other more then canon Rise.

Blue and Simoni and “the face team.” Which mean Blue taught Simoni some manipulation tactics. Simoni still gets tricked by 2012 Chris Bradford, but that was because he was star-struck. He’s actually a lot better at people then in canon. Also, Blue is a lot more insecure about himself because he doesn’t have his “face man” thing to himself and feels he has even less worth :(

Sanzio is slightly better at controlling his anger because Red is teaching him some things, though he’s still angry all the time. Also, he’s a little bit nicer to his little bros because they released that there’s 5 of them and one of him.

Purple also has more self worth issues then in canon because in there, he based his identity off being “the tech guy.” But here, there’s someone else that can do tech. Also, he usually gets put in the “safer” places during missions because Yoshi was overprotective of him because of his soft-shell, and all the 2012 boys (and even the Rise fam to an extent) followed. I could imagine an episode plot where he snapped and goes off to do something really dangerous to prove himself. Maybe going with the other brothers who get babied (Simoni and Orange)

Orange canonically does ballet (see the lair games ep) so I feel like I’m this AU Sanzio would be the kind of sibling/cousin-who’s-basically-a-sibling who would absolutely pummel anyone who bullies his siblings. Also I can see Orange and Simoni both doing ballet so when Simoni starts using his strings he moves around on them in a sort of “dance-y” way.

Since Lou let them sneak off to the surface before Yoshi was ready to let them go, I’d imagine DaVinci has an absolutely unreal amount of “Space Heroes” merch.

Since Simoni can be repelled by Poka, I can imagine Purple has an entire library of “Music genres my siblings/cousins-who-are-basically-siblings don’t like.” The labs were filled with Poka after Simoni activated his mystic powers

Had this doodle for a while and there's more but I wanna draw some of them digitally so it'll be a while.

Yes that smug expression was inspired by @aspergerasparagus

Her characterization of the cast of Finding Frankie is super funny. Especially the Lucky Contestant (lovingly called Lucky for short).

She also writes short stories too if you wanna read. Just remember to read the tags and warnings before you get into it so you don't read something that makes you uncomfortable.

What if the reason that everybody believes Lila is because there's no Google? XD

Ngl that one thought made me laugh

Oh ma ga-

I was reading something before this and was so surprised cuz I did NOT expect this!!!!!

Genuine happiness, thank youuuuu✨✨✨

@sillyandquest It’s your boy!! I’ve been wanting to draw him for so long but I kept getting distracted… sorry. But he was really fun to draw! I’m probably gonna draw him again. Also side note, I ADORE the animal-tamer reference!

NAH BUT LIKE-

@sm-baby HOW WERE YOU RIGHT????-

CARNIVAL AU - Theatre doodles

Got up early today, figured I'd post a doodle

I swear, whenever I draw the four guardians being cute I can't help but throw in Roll. I can see the vision though??? Like she would be the one that could help them get accustomed to the slower things in life. Show them the little things that help make a home so cozy, y'know?

I caved and doodled DogDay with legs cause the boi deserves it.

Just a lil lad. (Correction: he is, in fact, a very large lad)
