just to fuel the discourse reblog this with where you’re from and whether you pronounce “twenty” so it rhymes with “funny” or “plenty” (in other words, with a short u sound and silent t or a short e sound and pronounced t).
i’ll start: usa/california/”funny”
So Brian David Gilbert has been streaming Hades while biking, so I thought of a great and eco-friendly boon Hermes could grant Zagreus.
hi im avian or reptilianraven on ao3 and im interested in organizing a mini big bang challenge for the pcpr fandom!
what is a Mini Big Bang?
a Mini Big Bang is a smaller version of the fandom event known as a Big Bang. a Big Bang is a fandom event where writers and artists collaborate. during this event, writers will write a fanfic while artists create art to accompany this fanfic. on a specific deadline day, all the works will be posted, resulting in a “bang” of content. a Mini Bang is basically a Big Bang, but with a smaller minimum wordcount.
what is the minimum wordcount?
this is negotiable, depending on the fanfic writers who are interested in participating. im setting the placeholder minimum wordcount as 3k, but if you are interested in participating in an event like this and this wordcount is daunting for you, drop your preferred wordcount in the replies!
what is the schedule of this event?
im not sure yet, but my placeholder event duration is three months. again, if you are interested but this timeframe is daunting to you, feel free to leave your suggestions in the replies!
how will writer/artist pairings work?
in the beginning week of the event, i will post writer sign ups. this sign up will include basic information like tumblr username, ao3 username, the basic gist of your fic. you do not have to have your fic already written, at the sign up portion. just have a basic idea of what you’re going to write. at this same time, i will open artist sign ups with the same ish information stuffs.
around one month into event, writers will be required to submit a synopsis/summary of their fanfic. these summaries will be posted anonymously, and artists who signed up will have the opportunity to claim a fic to make art for on a first come first serve basis.
from here on out, writers and their paired artists can communicate and work together
again, this is all still theoretical. im basing this off of previous bang events i have participated in, so if you have any suggestions, drop them in the comments.
this is very interesting! i am interested in participating as a writer/artist! how do i show my interest?
you can show your interest in joining by reblogging this post! or send it to people who you think might be game for it!
if you have any questions/suggestions leave a reply on this post or send me an ask. i am going to sleep in like 5 minutes tho, so i’ll get to all of em in the morning akjfakjf
thanks for reading!
can i galaxy brain for a moment?
my theory is that simone serves the literary purpose of the everyman, like watson in sherlock holmes or nick carraway in the great gatsby. she is the vessel by which the viewer relates to and understands the world, ie the events of each episode of overboard. this is further evidenced when she references the memes that the audience would immediately draw associations to, or laugh incredibly loudly at goofs. that’s why she’s the only one who catches on to being gaslighted by brian in werewolf (though she is quickly convinced afterwards) and she begins to graffiti the stars in cosmic encounter when the viewer too begins to be confused by the events that occur.
Incredibly important Patrick fact mentioned in a previous post.
im going through taz amnesty again and i still vouch for this duck design i made a year ago in a sociology lecture
can i just like, notice that literally every single song the altogether (and even its individual members by which i mean bdg) has produced literally SLAPS?? like, they have no bad songs. what the crap.
like, yeah, you’ve got classics like clean slated state’s “do you need someone, do you need a new me?” but then also like
billy and anne, arguably one of my least favorite of their songs, still goes hard: “and i don’t care what you say/the world looks beautiful today”
this manhattan man has incredible lyrics: “what better place to make mistakes than an island already filled with heartbreaks?”
but then also, like, in older songs? like, ladybug? ladybug SLAPS. the rhythm! the groove! the beatboxing and the buildup! the line “everywhere i’m lookin i see polka dots!” a Bop!!
and then ofc you have bri’s other work, with things like the humble knight with beautiful imagery and a good story- “trapped in a hard shell of onyx and gold/with heart as light as a dove” and disclaimer, which literally sums up ever feeling i’ve ever felt about coming with a lot of baggage into a relationship: “‘cause i’ve never met a girl/that makes me feel i’m on a tilt a whirl/and i’ve never felt so pleasantly ill”
anyway what im saying is. i appreciate the hell out of the altogether for being incapable of producing bad music

This is Charles. If you’re a regular, you probably saw him hanging out in the background or bumping into the microphone. Earlier this summer, he passed away at the age of 16. We love him, we miss him and we will always remember him.
Here are some ways to honor Charles
Adopt, don’t shop. Charles was already an old man when I got him, and he was the best.
Don’t be afraid of using the Charles emotes. We like to see his face.
