big fan of when youtubers break out the corkboard and string. thats when you know youre in for an insanely pointless breakdown of a media you're only tangentially familiar with.
yet another drawing that I didn't post on tumblr (because I did not have a Tumblr account in 2014)!
I was OBSESSED with FMA when I was a kid!
everyone mark your calendars!! tomorrow is the annual “burn your childhood home down so you can never go back and leave on a long journey to get your brother’s body back because you committed the biggest taboo in alchemy and paid the price but all you really wanted was to see your mother again but now you realize dead people really can’t come back to life but there is still love and joy in the world” day!! :)
kid in the library just said "a VILLAIN who lives in the MOON is after us" so keep an eye out for that today guys
Huge win for the Jiminy Cricket fans

(in case you need a knife in the next two days for reasons unrelated to political assassinations)
“So let me get this straight. We’re here to rescue a princess.”
“That’s right.”
“At the request of a princess.”
“Right again.”
“And you, who will be leading the expedition, are also a princess.”
“You’re very perceptive.”
“How big is your royal family, again?“
“We don’t have one.”
“But–“
“We overthrew our monarchy centuries ago, but we kept most of the titles around. The rank of ‘princess’ is held by the directors in charge of various civil service branches.“
“Huh. And the princess we’re rescuing today is in charge of…?”
“Public sanitation.”
“The Lord of Death’s Dominion kidnapped your public sanitation director?”
“We think he’s a little confused.”
WAS NO ONE GOING TO TELL ME THAT ELIJAH WOOD WAS IN OVER THE GARDEN WALL?
I thought it was just a kind of spooky kids show, but for some reason my enjoyment skyrocketed when I realized it had Frodo in it.
Foggy’s gotten pretty decent at naming which red-themed vigilante is coming through his window in the middle of the night without even opening his eyes: Matt tries to be quiet so he doesn’t wake him up, Deadpool is talking before he even gets the window open and Peter knocks like a goddamn decent human being.
“Come in!” he yells, deciding that he won’t get out of bed until he knows if there’s an emergency or Peter just wants to raid his first aid kit and fridge.
“Sorry, Mr. Nelson,” Peter says, climbing inside and dropping lightly to the floor. “I know it’s late but I had a question.”
“Shoot, Spiderboy,” Foggy says, sitting up to see Peter lingering awkwardly close by in full Spiderman gear and oversized hoodie, backpack slung over one shoulder.
“It’s just that Mr. Murdock said that you might be willing to look over one of my essays,” Peter says, “but I kind of got distracted doing, y’know--” Peter makes a vague punching motion with a soft pow sound. “--and it’s kind of due tomorrow morning.”
“Oh my god,” Foggy says, sighing and pushing aside his sheets to get out of bed. “This is actually the least stressful thing one of you weirdos has ever asked me to do. What’s your essay about?”
“Macbeth.”
“Y’know, Matt was an English major,” Foggy says, huffing out a laugh and finding a sweatshirt to pull on before he turns on the lights. “You should probably be offended that he passed you off on me.”
“What was your major?” Peter asks.
“Business,” Foggy says. “Did I ever tell you about how my mom wanted me to be a butcher?”
“You have,” Peter says, dutifully, sitting his backpack on the floor and digging through it, “but you can tell me again, if you want.”
“You’re a good kid,” Foggy says, taking the essay when Peter finds it and hands it to him. “There’s leftovers in the fridge. Go eat while I check this bad boy out.”
"You're my hero," Peter says, fervently.
Foggy's never been called that before.
He doesn't hate it.
Something funny about the Scott Pilgrim adaptions I've noticed:
Ramona Flowers in the comics: "I change my hair like every 3 weeks"
Ramona Flowers in the movie: "I change my hair like every week and a half."
Ramona Flowers in the the anime: changes her hair every single day
At this rate if they make another adaption her hair will just start color shifting at all times like she got a damn invincibility star
