Shower thought: Why is the ship name for Ivy and Harley not Ivory? The word literally sounds like both of their names and is a beautiful and rare substance that comes from nature.

Idk maybe I’ll make a love child for them and name them Ivory.

I do not feel 20…

GIRL HELP- GIRL. I'M SKETCHING-- GIRL...

Getting back into drawing with some tiny creechers ft. my fur baby Boomer :]

For a twink he sure is full of himself

Happy Halloween!!! :]

Some Scarecrow for the soul. Georgia boy prefers to stay inside during the colder months (he’s not cold resistant in the slightest for a number of reasons), but he does hand out candy to trick or treaters! He likes spooking the older kids with his Scarecrow getup, but just has treats for the young ones. He also hosts scary movie nights for the rogues (mostly so he can see what freaks them out) but he does end up enjoying himself, especially when he and Ivy watch Little Shop of Horrors.

Doodles I did to practice body shapes

How do you get people to send you asks? I started my own Gotham AU and I need ideas!

- 🍁🌙

I’m not an expert (or all that popular myself lmao) but making a general post saying that you want asks is I think the best way to let people know, along with posting about your AU to get people interested. Don’t compare yourself to ‘bigger’ blogs either, since it’ll just make you feel negative. Just post what makes you happy and some people will find it interesting! Hope this helps! :]

it's tha joka baby

the great thing about having your own au is that you can take characters you dont like and make them completely different people until you like them

lore's under the cut!

??? (Nickname: J) lived a relatively simple life in the beginning. Coming from a terrible home, she never really flourished - simply went through the motions that were expected of any person in her generation. She eventually landed a job as a children's magician/clown, and while she was good at it, it didn't rake in as much money as she needed to live comfortably.

Especially considering the fact that she was a young, single mom. Her kid was about the only thing tethering her to a normal life, out of a desire to be better than her own parents were to her.

J had always had impulses. Desires. Be it a product of his upbringing, or his terribly boring existence, but he'd always had the desire to do bad things. Shake things up - like popping a bounce house with the kids inside, or bashing a particularly annoying participant over the head with his magician's wand. Things he'd repress, for obvious reasons. All except for one.

She had started stealing money or other valuables from her customers. Though she was desperate to be normal, J would often find ways to excuse her behavior. She wasn't able to keep the lights on at her current salary? Well, it was only fair that she took a little extra while on a job - she had earned it, after all; didn't you know how little this job paid? It wasn't anything they'd miss.

And that worked for a good long while. Until he opened his mailbox to find a letter.

The Red Hood Gang, in this universe, is basically a method of distraction. Does someone need everyone's eyes on something else while they go about their own plans? They pay Red Hood One to gather a group of his cronies and go cause mischief somewhere. J had been one of the people summoned to work as a Red Hood, as they had a whole heaping handful of evidence of her larceny as well as a clear threat against the life of her daughter.

With no choice, J donned the Red Hood. At first it went against everything she had been trying so hard to do; not to hurt people, or do anything bad, just keep herself in line. But, she couldn't deny...there was a certain freedom to it. When she donned the mask, she could be anyone she wanted, and no one would be able to tie what she did back to her.

Slowly, the guilt began to fade away. And J started to get ideas.

J adored the merry mischief that the Hoods would occasionally get into. Sometimes their plans were rigid (often defined by the person paying Red Hood One), but, occasionally, they were allowed to do whatever the hell they wanted. It was these times that J shined amongst the Hoods, as her plans were chaotic and nonsensical and drew in the people who also saw being a Hood as a chance at freedom. She eventually began to outshine Red Hood One, and would start to hold meetings with other Hoods in secret.

J began to wonder: what was the point of only having this sort of chaos contained to small bursts? So many people she knew - herself included - had been freed by chaos and madness. And she had seen firsthand the changes it could bring when the Hoods struck. Being paid for what they did didn't sit right with her; the nonsense of life should be a gift bestowed upon for free.

He had begun to sink deeper in the Red Hood ideals and lifestyle, and in turn started to neglect his normal one. He stopped stealing money, stopped putting effort into his job, and generally just...stopped being a person altogether. Being out of the mask felt like he was playing pretend now.

This did have one consequence that devastated him, though. His daughter, his only tether to normality, was taken away from him due to his accidental neglect in his ever-growing madness. This was the final thing to push J over the edge.

J had decided, then, that nothing in life mattered. It was a lesson she decided to teach the rest of Gotham - the only thing above all was madness, and chaos, and all of the things people locked deep inside themselves. J had already become popular amongst the Red Hoods, and so she finally took the mantle of Red Hood One by killing her predecessor. With her new title, she lead a new era of Hoods, ones who performed nonsensical crimes who had no pattern other than what caused the most disruption or destruction as possible. She was determined to paint the city mad.

When her and her Hoods were hitting Ace Chemicals, they were interrupted by Batman - who was a relatively new hero at the time. He had not known yet that the entire chemical plant was dangerously unstable, and as he engaged Red Hood One, the railing under their feet began to break. During their fight, it eventually gave way, and while Batman was able to cling to the edge and save himself, J wasn't so lucky.

After his accident in the chemical plant, J gave up completely the mask of the Red Hood. Now he had one burned permanently into his entire body. He took the moniker of the Joker, after a nickname he'd gained during his time as a Red Hood, and he's still deadset on showing Gotham the innate absurdness and chaotic meaninglessness of life.

....At least, that's what Bruce has pieced together. Who knows if any of it's the truth?

Yo, I’ve been meaning to change my name for a while since I’ve had run.that.bi.me.again since middle school and wanted something more recognizable and simple/mature. I also figured I’d put an info post on here to sort of introduce myself properly (I’m not good w/ people and talking lmao).

- You can call me Rylie or Star, either works perfect.

- I use any pronouns, but usually prefer masculine or androgynous terms (feminine terms don’t bother me tho, so they’re fine).

- I’m fairly certain I’m insane in the membrane (undiagnosed touch of the tism and a few other things) so if I say something or don’t understand something is wrong or inappropriate, please say so.

- Asks are very much welcome and encouraged! I want any excuse to talk about things like my rogues or other topics! :]

How does your Jonathan do with Jervises sleep clingyness? Does it bother him or does he find it sweet? Or maybe does he fall asleep too? Take all the time you need and thank you!

My Jon is very touch adverse, which applies to everyone including the rogues. Jervis knows this and knows to not go to him when starting to fall asleep, though he does tend to forget during his less lucid moments. Jon is perfectly fine with him sleeping nearby though if there is no one else around, so long as he keeps his hands to himself, since he finds Jervis’s sleepy rambles entertaining and he’s good company regardless.

Also…

…Jervis makes a lot of noise in his sleep. Snoring, talking, etc. Thankfully, he doesn’t sleepwalk, but everyone would prefer him to be a sleepwalker over the person who is actually one (Jonathan).

Remember when I said that Jervis is one of the more physically affectionate rogues? This is pretty much how it goes for anyone he manages to get his arms even partially around.

He is especially clingy when he sleeps, be it to a pillow of a person, he needs his arms around something or he just can’t seem to drift off. The poor soul he grabs is stuck until he wakes up since he has a grip like a gorilla and sleeps like the dead. It doesn’t help that the Arkham staff tends to pump him with sedatives which leaves him in a nearly constant state of eepy ready to drop and nap for 16 hours straight.

The others have learned to tolerate, and in some cases, slightly enjoy having him trust them enough to cling to them. It’s especially welcome during the winter. Arkham get really cold and he’s a little human heater. :]

*bites @creaman ‘s skrimbly and shakes him like a rag doll*

Happy Hatter Day! Down the rabbit hole we go! :]

Repost because I forgor his freckles like a dum dum…

"Curious, I'm not quite sure how I got here,"

My contribution to Mad Hatter Day! Just a silly little Jervis piece. There really is no rhyme or reason to how or why he's drifting in a tea ocean, I just thought it would look cool. Feel free to make up scenarios in the comments and tags,

-Sarsee

Jervis- Tally Hall and fin

Jonathan- Poor Man’s Poison and The Crane Wives

Edward- Will Wood and Glass Animals

That’s it. This is my version of them to a science.

A little something for @bluesfreakingart ‘s boy while I work on something for my own boy :]

Here’s a full page of Jerv w/ some fun facts no asked for :]

- My Jervis was a neuroscientist (not at Wayne Ent., a different, pretty shitty corp) that dabbled in hypnosis and slight of hand tricks in his free time for fun. He’s the second smartest of the rogues (behind Edward, obviously), and is very well spoken and reserved when lucid.

- When he’s in the middle of an episode, however, he acts more carefree and like a typical whimsy Jervis. He becomes much more clingy around his companions and acts more childlike, not caring what others think of him… at least when he’s not trying to find “Alice”.

- Prefers using traditional hypnosis methods for more personal/intimate endeavors, saving his tech for more tricky situations.

- The original “Alice” he fell for was a past relationship he had with a coworker, Alison White, that was incredibly toxic and even abusive at times towards him. That twisted his perception of relationships and caused his downward spiral into how he is now: constantly seeking approval from his “Alice”, even if he has to reprogram them a bit to get it and keep himself from getting hurt again.

- His left eye is a highly advanced prosthetic he made himself after an encounter with Batman gone wrong. (Ignore that I drew his right eye as the prosthetic in my colored sheet of him :|)

- Doesn’t care about sexuality/pronouns/gender. Nothing makes sense in Wonderland, so why should he have to explain who he loves or why he dresses certain ways sometimes?

- Regarding the doodle above with Jon, Jervis typically finds himself bored with no one to have tea with when the rogues are out doing their own things. He once “borrowed” Jon’s pet crow and dressed him up with little hats and bows and gave him tiny tea cups to play with. Needless to say, he was quickly taken off the (very short) list of people allowed to watch Icarus, and was given a good sized dose of fear toxin.

lemme pls tickle Jervis tummy

First ask omg! :D

Despite being one of the few rogues to like physical contact, he prefers to only give/receive it from people he trusts when lucid.

He has a habit of clinging to people during his episodes, however. Helps him stay grounded in a way.

These two panels really show how inconsistent my style is…

Sometimes Arkham is harder when you’re roomed with certain people. :/

Practicing my coloring with my designs for Jonathan and Edward.

Boo!

Honestly as the very pale mom friend somebody has to make sure the group wears sunscreen and drinks water. I’ve learned from getting heatstroke at pride three times that you DO not want to be underprepared. So we salute Gotham Ridds and his preparedness. Cause you KNOW Arkham and Zero Year are the ones who get burnt because they insist and refuse to wear sunscreen and Dano and YJ are just unlucky.

I also burn very easily, so it would be nice to have someone around that keeps sunscreen on them at all times.

However, this is only helpful if you aren't too stubborn to accept it.

My design of Jervis Tetch! Pallet is based off of BTAS.

He’s ready to commit a felony :]

Yes, American 🙃

Please reblog and add your nationality in the tags along with what you answered! I'm very curious about this; and it's not to shame anybody, so don't be rude!

Ride the Cyclone Kids Performing The Crucible

i have no excuse for this one. i just have had an unhealthy addiction to The Crucible since i had to read it in 11th grade. it’s been three years, and it still has a chokehold on me.

also i know they’re a choir, not a theater group, but shhhhhh

Ocean is Mary Warren

Noel is Reverend Hale

Mischa is John Proctor

Ricky can’t perform, but he is a stagehand, so he’s around quite often!

Penny is Abigail Williams

Constance is Elizabeth Proctor

All the other characters are played by random students

Noel, playing a priest: i feel like there’s some irony here

He’s pretty damn good at pretending to be religious, though!

Ricky, to Ocean: Ocean! You’re already so prepared for the role!

Ocean: Really?

Ricky: Yeah!

Ricky: Ginger

Get it? Cause The Crucible is about the Salem Witch Trials… Gingers were/are called witches/demons…

Ocean isn’t amused

Noel in movie!Hale’s getup

Penny, whenever Noel has to interact with her: hello, gay boy

Okay okay, Penny as Abigail? ABSOLUTELY TERRIFYING

Like, Holy Shit

She’s so scary, in fact, that she makes Ocean sit down like a fucking red heeler during her whole monologue about Abby’s dead parents

Penny: Now look you. All of you. We danced. And Tituba conjured Ruth Putnam’s dead sisters. And that is all. And mark this. Let either of you breathe a word, or the edge of a word, about the other things, and I will come to you in the black of some terrible night, and I will bring a pointy reckoning that will shudder you. And you know I can do it; I saw Indians smash my dear parents’ heads on the pillow next to mine, and l have seen some reddish work done at night, and l can make you wish you had never seen the sun go down!

Ocean, who’s in the same scene:

Mischa as Proctor is terrifying, too, but not quite on Penny’s level because he’s already an intimidating dude

It’s just daunting seeing Penny act so cruel

She’ll finish a scene where her character literally shattered the psyche of another character and forced said character into a mental breakdown and will be like “great job, guys! 🥰”

(The other character was Ocean’s lmao)

(If you’ve read TC, y’all know what scene I’m talking about)

You know the part where Abigail hits Betty? Yeah, Penny is merciless with that scene

The actress of Betty damn near saw god that day

Poor girl went SPINNING off the bed she was on

The script literally says “smashes her [Betty] across the face” and Penny took that WAY TOO SERIOUSLY

The duality between Penny nearly decapitating a kid with her hand alone and Penny being like “i’m so sorry!!! are you okay?!” immediately after

After that, the director tells her to lighten up a little lol

The slaps are still real, though

Just less likely to One-Hit KO Betty’s actress straight into the afterlife

Noel, when Penny does Anything: whore behavior

And speaking of whore behavior

Penny and Mischa. Their characters fucked

These two have NO interest in each other whatsoever, but that doesn’t stop them from acting as slutty as possible because they think it’s hilarious, especially when the other choir members react in the most disgusted way

Mischa: I can’t believe my character is an adult man fucking a teenager.

Penny: I am the teenager

Mischa: Thank you, Penny. I did not know that

Meanwhile, there is NO chemistry between Mischa and Constance, even though they’re supposed to be married, and it’s really funny

But honestly, kinda fitting

Since, you know. Proctor cheated on Elizabeth, and there’s meant to be a noticeable rift between them

Ricky, holding an imaginary microphone up to Constance: Constance! Constance! What’s it like playing a canonical milf?

Constance: Pretty cool

One time when Constance and Mischa were sitting at the dinner table set piece for act 2, waiting for the scene to begin, Constance whispered “I can’t believe I bred with you” and Mischa LOST IT

Constance wore Birkenstocks for some time. You know, before their costumes came together

Constance: They’re my Jesus slippers!

Mischa: I don’t think Birkenstocks were around in 4 BC Bethlehem

Constance: Go eat a fridge

Meanwhile, Ocean had an absolutely VISCERAL reaction to these fucking Birkenstocks

Ocean: I’m onto you, Elizabeth, you slippery weasel. I see those things. My mother eats, sleeps, and BREATHES Birkenstocks. I can smell those uncomfortable, mold-soled jerks from a mile away. I can SEE your footprints in them. I know what you’re hiding. I swear, my mother has a pair of those in that exact color, but I don’t know for sure because I’m not at home to check right now, and I’m not allowed in her closet anyway. I bet you stole them, didn’t you? Well, you doubt my willpower to rat you out, she-devil. I know. I see everything. My quietness makes me watchful. I’m practically invisible. I know you paid 99.95 shillings or more for shoes that feel more like solid stone than proper footwear. You snake. You fool. You absolute devil woman. You deserve no rights. Why would you make this purchase if you know what our world is like? You’re a woman in the 1600s for god’s sake, Elizabeth, you’re making chump change! You can’t spend your money on freakin’ Birkenstocks. Go to the general store and get some slippers because at least they would be cheaper and MATCH YOUR DRESS. I may be ace, and I may be aro, but even I know those two colors DO NOT go together. You are pure evil. Purple and that color? That brown? What were you thinking, woman?! You deserve no rights. I hope the shoe mold harvests every last one of your toes. Rapture is nigh, lady, and I don’t think your feet are prepared for judgement.

Meanwhile, the whole theater is SHRIEKING with laughter

At one point Mischa asked the director if he can just pick Ocean up instead chasing her in act 2 because it’ll “be easier”

In response, the director says, “It’s not going to happen because it’ll kinda ruin the illusion of terror, but I would like to see what you would do.”

This then led to Mischa throwing Ocean over his shoulder like she’s a sack of potatoes

In retaliation, Ocean grappled onto him with all of her limbs like a rare species of red koala

“YOU CAN’T BEAT ME IF YOU CAN’T PUT ME DOWN!!!!”

Ocean can cry on command, which is good because of how emotional Mary Warren is

She spends more than half her stage time sobbing uncontrollably

Ocean: oh yeah, crying on command is easy! i just have to remember my Whole Life

Ricky: so have you ever considered the school counselor

“Mary Warren is holding the weight of my mental health on her tiny, Puritan shoulders” -Ocean

Mischa gets to use a REAL WHIP for the play

He once accidentally hit himself with it when trying to crack it

The others have never seen him crumple to the floor like that before

He opened his mouth, but he couldn’t even manage a scream, so he was just silently shrieking in pain

Noel, coming up behind Ocean during this, whispering in her ear: that’s gonna be you soon

Ocean isn’t nervous, though

She trusts Mischa!

Anyone else playing Proctor, though?

Nope

Before the whip came in, Mischa would take his belt off and threaten Ocean with it

But 3/4 times he couldn’t get the fucking thing off quick enough

Mischa: I’ll official y— Uh. Hang on. Sorry, just— fuck, this thing is on good. COME OFF!

He just starts fighting it

Meanwhile, Constance and Ocean are just there like 🧍‍♀️🧍‍♀️

They decided to start using a stick instead (pre-whip era)

They call it the “Beating Stick”

Mischa accidentally hit Ocean with it once

Ocean folded like a goddamn chair

When Mischa gets the whip and is like “I’ll official you!” Ocean jumps on the WHOLE DINNER TABLE to get away from him and ends up flipping the entire thing

Ocean, hiding under the dinner table while Mischa prowls around with the whip: i feel this on a personal level

Mischa: W H A T

It’s method acting 😌

During Elizabeth’s arrest at the end of act 2, when everyone starts yelling at each other, Constance pushes Ocean behind her like she’s trying to keep her safe from the mayhem, and Ocean Almost Cried

You know what she DID cry at, though?

When Elizabeth is actually arrested

Ocean takes it WAY TOO PERSONALLY

She’s acting like Constance is actually getting arrested and put into jail for witchcraft 😭

Great acting, though

Mischa, to the director, about the arrest scene in act 2: Hey, so you know how Proctor is threatening everyone and is really angry?

The director: Yeah?

Mischa: Okay, so, hear me out. What if he had a gun?

The director:

So Mischa gets a gun

Unlike the whip, this one is fake!

But still

He feels so POWERFUL

Ricky has made it his personal mission to condition the actors into acting and staying in character through Anything, so he just does random shit in the wings during practice

Even the very emotional scenes

Mischa: l will bring you home! l will bring you soon!

Constance: Oh, John, bring me soon!

Mischa: I will fall like an ocean on that court! Fear nothing, Elizabeth.

Constance: I will fear nothing.

Ricky, in the wings: 🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃

Ocean is so short compared to Mischa that the scene between Mary and Proctor at the end of act 2 looks like the violent assault of an elementary school student

This is the scene

Mischa, holding Ocean by the throat: I could break you like a potato chip

Ocean: Do it then

Mischa fuckin FLINGS Ocean to the ground so hard there was this loud ass THUMP

A visual representation of what this would look like from an actual version of The Crucible online

(Side note: the version this comes from is fucking AMAZING. Mary is SO GOOD)

Okay, so, act 3? Ocean’s acting? HOLY SHIT

She puts her fucking SOUL into this performance

She cries so hard during act 3 that Mischa, who is with her most of the time, is genuinely concerned that she’s having some kind of episode

She keeps holding her head in her hands, curling up on herself to seem smaller, rocking back and forth, breathing shakily, whimpering and sobbing, and Mischa can’t tell if she’s just a really good actress or is in need of psychological assistance

(The answer is both)

She’s constantly being told to drink water afterward because she gets dehydrated from crying so much

There’s this one point in act 3 where Mischa and Noel are standing around Ocean because she started crying again, and they looked like her gay colonial parents

Ocean, to the director: Hey, so the script says, “They all watch as Abigail, out of her infinite charity, reaches out and draws the sobbing Mary to her, and then looks up to Danforth.” Does this mean that I get to be hugged by Penny?

The director: Yes, it does.

The director: Why are you crying??

At the very end of the play, they actually have an execution scene, where they pretend to hang Mischa with a harness and stuff

Noel: Did you guys hear about that one wardrobe malfunction during a school play?

Constance: No, what happened?

Noel: Well, they were doing a hanging scene, as we’re doing now, and apparently the harness broke or something because the kid started to actually hang. Nobody knew he was dead until after the scene because they just thought his struggling and stillness was just acting.

Penny: That sounds awful. Imagine getting into a school play and inviting your whole family to come watch you, and then you fucking die.

Ocean: His parents were probably out in the lobby with flowers afterwards, waiting to congratulate him, and then someone had to go out and tell them that not only he was dead, but they also watched him die without realizing it. Probably got videos of it and everything.

Noel: It gets worse. He was an understudy. The kid who was supposed to go on got sick and couldn’t perform, so this guy went on for him and died because of it.

Mischa, in a harness above them, about to be hanged: I’m feeling a little unsafe

THE KIDS IN COLONIAL OUTFITS

Keep this here for me 💚

Wanted to make this post bc I get a lot of ppl in my inbox asking where I watch the various tmnt shows

I watch them all (and literally almost every other cartoon I love) on m.wcostream.com!

It's free, there are no pop-up ads that get in the way of you easily accessing your shows/movies, and it's kept up to date within at least 3 days after a new ep has been released. Plus there's a playlist feature, pretty much like Netflix (though I think that only works on desktop).

It has four of the TMNT shows on there so I'll leave the links to them here:

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1987

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2003

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2012

Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
