Hello! As of today, I’ve reached 300 followers, and to commemorate this momentous occasion, I’m hosting a giveaway!
What you’ll win
- Any figure from amazon (or any other reliable figure site) worth up to 50 USD (shipping not included)
- Any wig from a reliable site up to 35 USD (shipping not included)
- I’ll commission a piece for you, anything you want!
You don’t have to be following me, but if you do, and you win, you’ll get an extra special something at the end! Shipping internationally will not be an issue!
It will end on June 30 at 11:59 EST, and I will be picking a winner immediately after using a random number generator. Likes don’t count, only reblogs, and as many times as you want (without upsetting your followers)! Sideblogs are fine, but not giveaway blogs.

Thank you, and good luck! >uo

TEDDY THIS IS WHY WE DON’T TALK ABOUT CUTE BOYS AND SKRULLS
This is super late, I got a request to do more sassy gay comics AND it’s also kukkicake’s birthday!! …or it was yesterday. Like I said, late. :B After yesterday’s issue #5 preview I figure something silly would be nice.

tbh i saw a roleplay advice post with over four hundred notes. i didn’t even know that four hundred people roleplayed. i’m just terribly curious to see how many people are actively roleplaying at this current moment in time.
I roleplay, not on tumblr, but it happens.
I roleplay - tabletop, via email, and on a forum. There are hundreds of thousands of active roleplayers out here, if not millions, especially once you include video game RP, LARPing and semi-RPs like the SCA/living history groups.
dreamwidth is my homegirl
Pick any passage of 500 words or less from any fanfic I’ve written, and comment to this post with that selection. I will then give you the equivalent of a DVD commentary on that snippet: what I was thinking when I wrote it, why I wrote it in the first place, what’s going on in the character’s heads, why I chose certain words, what this moment means in the context of the rest of the fic, lots of awful puns, and anything else that you’d expect to find on a DVD commentary track.
Ooh, fun. Except do it in an ASK, please! Or, since that cuts off the number of words, send it via the tumblr message system.
I probably haven’t written enough for this to be interesting, but just in case…
Also I know there are some writers on my dash who might be into trying this. :|b

My pillow cover arrived today! A lovely piece I ordered from waste-cabin’s Society 6 store!
I bought the 16x16 cover. My only complaints are that the zipper is really small so it was hard to get the pillow into it (but my pillow is 17x17 so that didn’t help) and it isn’t very soft. Still, it’s lovely and I’m going to enjoy cuddling with my two favourite boys c:
Aaaaand links because Tumblr won’t let me insert one, wtf:

HAVE FUN~

Young Avenger Time! C’mon, grab your boyfriends~!
I had this sketched out for the longest while and after a very belated and derp worthy herp on my part I found a very sweet message in my tumblr inbox for a friend. So! I fixed it up and made it pretty and here it is for Kukki and Akai.Sorry for all of the Adventure Time style stuff lately, it’s just really fun to draw and I’m happy with the contrast for these two. The background kind of sprang up from that colour in the top right hand corner so…I think Teddy’s doing the Howl’s Moving Castle run to help Billy fly with him better. Or something.
;lkjasdf omg yoooouuuuu ///
THANK YOU MY LOVELY ;w; and now I’ve got my hands on my cheeks, aaaaaa
LOOK AT THIS BEAUTIFULNESS
Plum omgggggggggggggggg I’m just gonna flail around forever, you’re wonderful, thank you so much ;; <333!
YA is out and people are cranky again
I feel like I should stop going to the Young Avengers tag after a new issue comes out. Criticism is all fine and good but the stupid shit that people complain about just makes me want to flip the entire internet on its head.
I’m loving the new series. It’s not the same but it doesn’t have to be. I’m just happy it’s good. And it is good; it took a bit for me to get on board but I’m so happy that it exists. I’m so happy for the attention it’s getting and that it’s in the hands of people who not only do great work but pay attention to the fanbase in a big way. We have a voice, people, and they’re listening! But a lot of us are using it to say that characters are “too gay” because Billy brushes his hair now and Teddy makes an offhand sassy comment about cute boys. I just.
????
That’s basically my reaction to the tag when I’m not flipping things. And I’m sorry to the people who are genuinely offended by their portrayal but… idk it kind of feels like you’re looking for something that isn’t there.
So looking forward to Kate’s re-intro. Maybe when we get more of the original team together we’ll finally have something else to gripe over.
(NO BUT SERIOUSLY I FUCKING LOVE IT)
PS The response to that judgmental letter at the end was brilliant, oh my god. All the applause.
smiledesu replied to your photo: What with his appearance in #6 being A Thing I…
…not the same prodigy, luv :x
omg woman did you not read the whole post I was being cheeky
What with his appearance in #6 being A Thing I thought I’d bring this back
The last time the YA met a Prodigy it turned out great
I think this was The Initiative or something, I am way too lazy to look it up atm
shush I know there are two of them

#YOU COULD SAY THAT BILLY’S HAIR WAS GAY #IF IT GAINED SENTIENT LIFE AND STARTED HUMPING TEDDY’S HAIR #BUT SINCE IT HAS NOT DONE THAT (YET) #I WILL SIDE-EYE THE FUCK OUT OF ANYONE AND EVERYONE WHO BRINGS HIS HAIR AS PROOF THAT HE’S TOO GAY

so gay billy

Confession #321
“I am so sick and tired of the Billy Kaplan hate. Billy was an awesome character and I hate how it took 1 issue of this new Young Avengers to completely ruin him. This new Billy is not our Billy. “
-geekgirl101
I’m sorry, did we all miss those, what, four months of clinical depression? You know, when he sat on the windowsill, cutting off the world at large, friends, family, even the love of his life?
And then he gets better.
And you know what happened in YA #1?
It’s called a trigger reaction. One born from the death of two close friends, a war going on, a friend set on the path to become one of the world’s greatest villains, and Billy blames himself for it in full. Someone brought that shit up with him again, and lord help him, he’s going to make the world burn for it, because that’s what you do when you’re triggered. You don’t care what you say, you don’t care who you say it to. You’re in pain, and fuck everything, they’re all going to know it. YOLO.
You know what the main difference is? The difference is that Gillen, unlike Heinberg, is a very character-oriented writer. If Heinberg killed Teddy’s mom and we barely got two panels of it (because even bottling things up can be given attention), Gillen’s the writer who on the first issue going to shove down our throats every single last “thing” between Billy and Teddy that EVERYONE in the first run, YA title writers or otherwise, refrained from getting anywhere near. Because if Teddy is with tears in his eyes and is choking on the words, says “the only mom I ever had was burned alive in front of me”, that is arguably not the same Teddy, either. But it is - he just says what he never did but should’ve.
And Billy? Billy’s saying what makes sense he’d say after ACC. This IS our Billy. It’s the Billy who’s been through twice as much shit as most in CW (most. not all). This is the Billy whose boyfriend was why the Skrulls attacked like, twice. This is the Billy who lost control of his powers, who’s scared shitless of himself, who had Cap show up in his living room, and made his parents scared of Billy, too. Then cue friends dying and self-blame.
The difference here is that we’re not given a pseudo-happy ending. We’re not having everything the two have been through glazed over for the sake of the plot because the narrative is plot-oriented. We’re digging into everything that’s dirty, and rotten, and broken with those two and yes, if it means Billy being a self-centered prick because he’s triggered, then so be it this is what we’re going to get because that’s what Gillen does. He goes places other writers won’t, he digs up everything painful about a character’s backstory, and unlike what we had so far? He uses it.
This IS our Billy. In his time of need, in a time of transition, where he’s probably going to rediscover himself as a hero. Sort of this new origin story for him. He’ll hopefully recover within… five issues? At most? But until then we’re left with this fragile, broken thing.
That IS our Billy. And he shouldn’t apologize for being this flawed human being because that’s what he is.
Do I miss the fine-legged ball of sass? Yes. Of course I do. I wait for his return about as much as Teddy does. But it’s not Gillen’s fault. This was set-up as early on as ACC. It’s just that like most things character-oriented in the previous narrative - we didn’t see any of it.
/complains about Billy Kaplan hate
/proceeds to spew new Billy Kaplan hate
LOGIC!!!
Also yes to all of this.

Fic: What Do You Go Home To
This came to mind while I was reading Uncanny Avengers #3. Anyone who’s read that issue knows how potentially (spoilers hurr) heart-ruining this situation is. It festered in my brain for days until finally… this.
Yeah. Sorry not sorry.
I have no idea how UA lines up with YA, and I’m not even going to attempt timeline-juggling, so assume this is pre-YA #1. Probably doomed to be jossed but whatever.
Between this and the last fic I really need to write some fluff next time.
Word count ~4000

THE LINKREDIBLE GIVEAWAY!
To celebrate the launch of our new blog fuckyeahhylia, we have decided to have an amazing giveaway for the lovely people of tumblr. There are two prizes including a Wii U: Premium Pack (Black) and a Nintendo 3DS: The Legend of Zelda Limited Edition. The deadline and drawing date is on the bottom.
PRIZE INFORMATION
Wii U: Premium Pack (Black) - The reason for me giving away such a prize is because I had won the Wii U for free at a raffle, even though I already had my own. At first I wanted to sell the whole pack, but with the release of Wind Waker HD coming to the Wii U, I would rather a legitimate and deserving Nintendo fan get the opportunity to play it instead of someone attempting to buy it off me to save a few bucks. However, I do want at least SOME money out of it, so I will be selling the NintendoLand game elsewhere. Therefore, the NintendoLand software that is included with the Premium Pack will NOT be included in this giveaway. Other than that, the console itself is brand-spanking new (unused), and is packed and ready to be given to the lucky winner.
For more details on the Wii U: Premium Pack (Black) prize, message Noel on either his blog or fuckyeahhylia.
~
Nintendo 3DS: The Legend of Zelda Limited Edition - People around tumblr have always been sulking about not having this limited edition Zelda 3DS. I won this $100 prepaid visa gift card at an orchestra banquet last year and I hadn’t used it, apparently. So, I decided to search for the 3DS on eBay and I was actually surprised to find one under the budget! Gave the card to my mother and she took care of the rest. It’s in pretty great condition, barely used, all the functions are fine, the screen is as sharp as a tack. However, this was just for the hand-held device, not Ocarina of Time 3DS. I can’t provide for everything! Also, it didn’t come in the original packaging, so I’ll send it bubble wrapped and safe inside a small box. Charger and stand included.
For more details on the Nintendo 3DS: The Legend of Zelda Limited Edition prize, message Elly on either her blog or fuckyeahhylia.

There will be a total of two lotteries, one lottery by Noel determining the winner of the Wii U and the reserves, and the other lottery by Elly determining the winner of the 3DS and the reserves. The drawings of the url out of the lottery will be filmed and uploaded onto fuckyeahhylia to prove fairness in the draw.
