@BEETLEBUMPS
i’m bursting with new apply fic ideas right now, but what do you guys think of a superhero apply fic set in a university for supes? it’s heavily inspired by Gen V and The Boys Universe + the DCU
Also- if you do like those two shows I HIGHLY recommend Supacell if you haven’t seen it!!
my boyfriend and i are going as Mulder and Scully for halloween. life is good.
i’m not condoning any type of crime whatsoever, but robbing The Louvre in seven minutes under broad daylight is so ridiculously chic i can’t even be mad. the concept of them forming a crew to go on an art heist AND getting away with it by riding on fucking scooters makes this whole situation feel like a literal fever dream. this news has bee FRYING me since yesterday i honestly gotta respect the hustle
obviously burglary is still a serious offense, even more so since they stole legitimate historical artifacts. but i think the reason people aren’t taking this too seriously is because there are way bigger issues and actual crimes against humanity happening right now that deserve more media attention and outrage.
i’m honestly so glad more people are getting into the DCU again thanks to James Gunn’s recent projects. i still remember barely surviving the trenches when the MCU completely dominated everything and people were constantly dragging DC for even existing (i honestly blame Zack Snyder for that). but seeing people finally appreciate DC the way it deserves now makes me so happy <3 i might rewatch Young Justice and Smallville soon because the nostalgia is hitting hard lately.
@BEETLEBUMPS right!! im a new dc fan myself, but im SO glad i finally got into it after Superman!! after reading the comics for both, i must admit i do enjoy reading DC stuff more. im really looking forward to the DCU, but i'm yet to get into more films and tv shows (currently watching peacemaker hehe)
@BEETLEBUMPS THIS IS AMAZING THANKS SO MUCH! i might start watching smallville since i’ve heard so many good things about it already and you just convinced me further! i’ll try watching young justice and the rest too!
[ @velocityalt ] i was totally guilty of hating on my faves’ rivals when i was a teenager too, so it’s all good haha! but if Superman was your first entry into the DCU and you’re looking for stuff that ties into James Gunn’s new canon, i’d recommend starting with The Suicide Squad (2021), then watching Peacemaker season 1. from there, go for Blue Beetle (2023), Creature Commandos, and then Peacemaker season 2 now that it’s out. there’s still a lot more planned for the new DCU, but for now we’ll just have to wait for the upcoming releases. personally, Smallville was my intro to the DCU. it mainly focuses on Clark Kent’s story before he became Superman and isn’t canon to Gunn’s universe, though Gunn did draw some inspiration from it for the new Superman film. i also really loved Young Justice (2010). it unfortunately got cancelled a few years ago, but the existing seasons are still amazing if you want to see younger heroes outside of the Justice League as the main characters. and if you really want to go all out, you check this out: https://forums.superherohype.com/threads/the-full-cinematic-dc-multiverse-recommended-viewing-order-watch-order.553931/. these are all just the shows and movies though. the comics are a whole other league!
check out this amazing superhero apply fic by @rawscalp! deadline is already on the 14th, so send in your forms asap! https://www.wattpad.com/story/375607972?utm_source=ios&utm_medium=postToProfile&utm_content=share_reading&wp_page=library&wp_uname=BEETLEBUMPS
AO3 may be down, but at least we got two Adrian Chase’s in the new Peacemaker EP
for all the readers and OC creators in ‘shirkers’, i just wanted to let you know that i’ll be unpublishing the fic for now. i’ve been feeling unsatisfied with the way the chapters are written, so i’m going back to revise and make everything more cohesive.
the main plot and all the original OC’s will stay the same, nothing will change there. it’s really just about tightening up the writing so the story flows better. i’m so sorry for the pause, but i promise ‘shirkers’ will be back once i’m happy with the revisions. i really do love the shelby’s story and the people around them, and i. want to do it justice <3
@BEETLEBUMPS — Sad to see it go for now TvT But I can’t wait to see how you improve it since the original was great in its own right!! As long as you’re happy with i, it’ll be amazing <3333
i know i should probably slow down on publishing new apply fics since i’ve already got quite a few ongoing, but if i were to put out a new one, which genre would you all be most excited for?
• a southern gothic apply fic exploring cults, religion, and the occult in a small suburban town (think Twin Peaks vibes).
• a superhero apply fic centered on sidekicks and anti-heroes.
• a murder mystery apply fic set in a hotel, inspired by Clue.
that sense of pride when my OC’s form gets more than 5 likes in an apply fic
after a million years, i finally updated ‘diabolique’! go check it out, folks! <3
