BEGGING people to read The Defenders series now.
I love this series, it's so funny for no reason and their dynamics are just wonderful. So many little Easter eggs and mentions of other characters in their area, such a short read but it had me laughing me ass off man.
my version of the fell bros
ehehehhe
watching Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 3 felt like saying goodbye to my high school friend group before we all left for different colleges, knowing that while we might keep in touch, we were never going to be this group ever again, and a huge chapter of our lives was over...and i can't remember the last time i cried that much in the theater.
perfect send-off. thank you James Gunn 💜
Couple o’ Infinity Train doodles because me n my pal were talking about it!
finally locked down the creature form design in a way i actually enjoy drawing edit: repost because i forgot a drawing in the last one
yo, okay, so, after Prickly Pair, im 99% sure that not only is corrupted steven going to happen, the gems aren’t going to be able to talk him down. they’ll try, but much like they did in this episode, they’ll get (emotionally) pricked and slammed into a wall.
it’s going to be the humans, specifically, connie and greg.
steven seems to be putting a lot of pressure on himself specifically when it comes to the gems; his expectation of himself to be ‘needed’ and to help everyone really seems to come from his time with them; which, while obviously not intentional on the gems part, has undeniably at this point messed steven up.
there’s also the matter of his strong emotions are sending him spiralling into his gem powers- out of touch with his human half.
so, when inevitably, steven says ‘oh wyrm’ and becomes corrupted, i think the people who will need to convince him to let everyone else in will be connie and greg.
why connie?
in the main series, connie really has been a grounding force in steven’s life. from teaching him more about his gem powers through fusion, standing beside him in battle, and by being with him during his Not Fun Time in homeworld, she’s always helped to carry him through the rough times. sometimes literally!
AND THEN THERE’S MINDFUL EDUCATION.
”But it’s okay to think about it!” “You have to be honest about how bad it feels so you can move on!”
these two lines alone from that scene really are what steven needs to hear right now. he needs to be reminded of what he’s learned, how far he’s come, and how letting his emotions out healthily is okay.
why greg?
he’s the only parental figure who HASN’T done the above-mentioned ‘problem shoving’. he’s always been there for steven, and has only told stories of his past to steven when steven explicitly asked for them.
what really solidified it for me was Bluebird, when instead of forcing steven to save him, greg dealt with the problem himself:
in doing so, he took responsibility for his OWN distress, and didn’t force steven to step in for him. he made his own sacrifice. this is really important, as the problem in Prickly Pear really seemed to come down to role models, with how steven ended up being a bad one to his creation, and greg is an absolutely stellar example of one in steven’s life.
greg universe has always done the best he can as steven’s father, often being the person steven turns to whenever the gems are having issues. it would make sense both in terms of character, and thematically, for him to be one of the catalysts for finally cracking steven’s tough outer shell.
in conclusion:
So uh….. snerver said Coffee Shop AU and i had a jimmy neutron brain blast… and then we brainstormed more into it… so uh. Here’s the AHiT “““Coffee Shop AU””” (emphasis on the quotation marks) More under the cut from vc discussions:

scenes from this fic by @samthefrank i think these are from chs 3 and 5 respectively.
i miss drawing comics. kinda just using scenes to experiment w layout and color
I know Julie's height is similar if not shorter tha Frank's, but I love the headcannon the she's inches taller than him.
Also, my headcannon is that all the legion members were born in the same year, but the birthday is Julie>Joey>Frank>Susie in this order.
My friends think I like to fight, but it's just not true. Sometimes I lose my temper and blow off a little steam—but I've never enjoyed it. I'm not a violent dog. I don't know why I bite.
