So I saw this and thought of you guys. Blog Topless Robot runs a contest every weekend, with the prize being a t-shirt with a Panda-Z-esque boob-missile-shooting robot.

MORE IMPORTANTLY, this weekend the theme of the contest is superhero valentines. You can read all the comments here, but here are a few samples:

cause it got a little long... )

so uh, I don't know a whole lot about Western comics but I know enough to see that some of these are funny. I'M SURE THE REST OF YOU WILL GET ALL OF THE JOKES GOING ON OVER THERE.

All right, so.

Due to certain plot events on the horizon, Norman is going to be needing more Dark Avengers. Certain things will be coming to a head, and hey! His team will be pretty important, and gets to be a part of that in a way Norman probably won't see coming. Or like.

What is it? Well... that's still part of the surprise.

With that in mind, who wants to be a Dark Avenger? The team roster is currently about four; he could use about 4-5 new members.

While what they'll be needed for, specifically, doesn't have a scheduled date yet (it depends on how available a slot will be on the plot calendar), we're shooting for before the end of the year. I will keep people updated if dates change, though. c:

Okay! HI. So. AS MUCH AS THIS PAINS ME. I could really use the extra help right now!

In order to help raise some money for San Diego ComicCon and well, my bills, I am opening $5 sketch commissions. One character, pencil, full-body or bust. Two character commissions are available for $8.

Samples under here! )

Characters you're never apping to C&C!!!

Actually, I would totally do it just to hear the screams, but I would have to ritually disembowel myself after every hideous one-liner and I have carpeting in my room.

HEY SO, NOTIFICATIONS ARE SUCKING. At least they are for me.

So let me know here if I owe you a tag.

FEEL FREE TO USE THIS POST FOR YOURSELVES TOO because seriously I've gotten like... two notifs since last night so it's beyond just an annoying 30 minute delay here. And obviously since notifs aren't..... working....... just make sure to keep checking back here.

Hey C&C, I need your help. Since Dawn brought Cassie to C&C and I have no impulse control, I am apping Nick from the movie Push. BUT HERE'S WHAT I NEED FROM YOU.

A username. I literally spent forever last night trying to think of one, and failed miserably, so any suggestions will be so welcome, you guys don't even. And if anyone knows where some Push icons are lurking on the interwebs, I'd be thrilled.

IAN HEY IAN
you're still on semi-hiatus
but I just wanted to ask if you would like to log some time when you're not?? I mean with Lucifer and Tim, because Tim is going to give in and ask to remove the tattoo even though all he really needs to remove them is a fucking candle
A CANDLE, I TELL YOU
but we could also handwave it, no problem

but

EVERYONE HEY EVERYONE
There's this thing about Tim's tattoo. It's really two tattoos, one of a scorpion, and one of a moth. The scorpion stings him when he does magic, and the moth prevents him from getting close to people (Tim doesn't know this, obviously. Well, he's worked out the stinging part on account of being, you know, stung several times).

My question is that SHOULD TIM KEEP THE MOTH? Because I can't decide whether the moth will hinder CR or provide an interesting twist to CR. In the comics this moth caused his girlfriend to dump him because he didn't notice that she no longer touched the ground when she walked. So... it doesn't exactly prevent him from INTERACTING with people, it just will prevent actual meaningful connections. But I could always get rid of it later, too? I don't know. What do you think.

Two things:

FIRST, TO WHATEVER LOVELY ANON FAIRY IS RESPONSIBLE: THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE ICONS. I appreciate them tremendously and shall try to use them well. :D


Second: So Terry is just here, is sort of 8| at suddenly being somewhere he doesn't know without the old guy and the computer who knows everything, so he's trying to be the best Batman he can be. Which involves lots and lots of reading/watching/listening. Because HEY, research makes the man, right?

Or it does if it's Batman.

And he's new at the job, which makes him nervous which makes him overcompensate because he doesn't want to make any mistakes and die, and....

The point is that he's gonna be hyper-responsible for the first little while, and so will be doing his research. And he'll probably make it through at least 6 months worth of back-dated stuff, after he settles down and starts studying properly (after a while he might decide that he's doing well enough without doing this stuff and if he keeps up his head will explode and THEN where will he be and so not make it back to the beginning, and he'll probably skim before that) but I... really don't want to read through all the posts and 89 thousand comments that he would. So um.

Help me Cape and Cowl-kenobi, you're my only hope. What are some things he would know? @_@



EDIT: Eeeeeee thank you everyone who's already posted. AS A SIDE NOTE that I should have posted earlier: He'll be paying a lot more attention to people who are or were villains, who associate with villains, have committed crimes, gone crazy and murdered someone ETC than he will to just your normal hero types.

Because. Well. They're the potential threat here. Unlike Bruce he's not gonna build a contingency plan for each and every hero in the city and how to take them down should they go evil he's not that OCD. He'd likely know who the heros were as well, but won't care quite so much.

OKAY SO HERE'S THE THING: I suddenly want to re-app Pyro from between X-Men 2 and X-Men 3 (to avoid the suckfest that was the third movie), but I'm pretty sure that
  1. no one
  2. gives
  3. a fuck
  4. and his voice is similar to Jason's, except Jason is "an adult" (ex...cept he's not, he's 19) and Pyro is "a teenager" (16), and Pyro cusses more. But they cuss the same way, except Pyro is more inventive. Also Pyro is more social.
IDK basically Pyro is an immature, better socialized, differently [mildly-]sociopathic Jason (he would never cut off anybody's limbs but let's face it he sets people on fire).

My question is then: is he worth playing at C&C? I enjoy challenges RPwise, so keeping their voices different would be interesting to me, but I think it'd be silly to app a character that's so similar to one I already have... but then, I also think you can maybe make a case for Pyro being different enough. What do you think?

Also for reference here's a poll. Please do not be afraid to click "NOOOOOOOO" or "I have no feelings either way" — I know that the X-Men movies aren't. Uh. Exactly. The greatest of source material. And I won't be offended. ♥

OKAY, SO TECHNICALLY THIS DOESN'T APPLY RIGHT NOW, BUT. As you know, livejournal is going down for a while a few hours from now! When livejournal goes down, we usually flock to chat for five seconds, right? And by we I mean me and like four other people maybe? idk, sometimes it's gotten big! ANYWAY. My point is. Do you guys want IC or regular chat to while away the hours while LJ is down? Or, uh, no chat at all? I'll hold off on the blinking text until the people have spoken.

Okay, for the moment it looks like the verdict is in! Go to goddamnbatchat, people, and go crazy. Also ask me for an invite at pudenda express if you need one!

My frand Matty does not play at C&C but he has good ideas:

[12:31] Matty: so. I just had an idea for a meme. I don't know if it's terrible or amazing.
[12:31] Jilli: uh oh.
[12:31] Matty: so.
[12:31] Matty: your character discovers a version of rule34 specific to their game/RP/etc. how do they react.
[12:33] Jilli: hahaha. well, the "specific to their RP" part is different.
[12:33] Matty: well yes
[12:33] Matty: it's so you don't have shit like
[12:33] Matty: "oh, i'm an OC." *smug*
[12:33] Matty: and more potential for "why would this even happen" pairings.
[12:34] Matty: basically whatever the porn is
[12:34] Matty: it's relevant to them.
[12:35] Jilli: that gives me a hilarious plot idea but I have no characters who would film fake porn of people -- ... but I guess I know who would >_>
[12:36] Matty: 'splain plz
[12:38] Jilli: idk like see in C&C there's a network where everybody posts and so it'd be perfect for them to post short little porn segments starring "Tony Spark" and, idk, "Catalina Kyle", or basically everyone ever on the network hfjdh
[12:38] Matty: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
[12:38] Matty: that
[12:38] Matty: might
[12:38] Matty: be even better

All right artists WHO STILL NEEDS PAID ACCOUNTS OR REGULAR MONEYS I GUESS because I want some Jason icons and I have stupidly specific requests.

1. leaning his head into his hand like "welp!"
2. smirking/grinning/smiling (more than 1 pls because I only have 3 icons of him doing this and I keep having to use them over and over :E)
3. one or both eyebrow(s) raised
4. neutral expression, with mask

Come here and give me a sample (even though I probably remember from the last time I bought icons from you talented bunch). And maybe name a price or something!

....................................................................... Also feel free to give me shit about the tentacles thing ._. I SWEAR TO GOD THIS WAS NOT AN IMPULSE DECISION, I TOTALLY THOUGHT ABOUT IT FOR LIKE AN ENTIRE DAY. AND IT'S CANON ONLY NOT REALLY.................................... because the canon is twice as horrific. I mean, just so you know I did not randomassly decide to up and give Jason tentacles. Honest to god, the tentacles I've given him are discreet and classy in comparison to his canon tentacles.
