‘you Better Not Be Haunting The Narrative When I Get There’

The architect & historian

Like fire! Hellfire!

Spider-Man: MENACE

After shoving Hansel in the oven, the witch turns to Gretel - who is currently fending the witch off with a gingerbread chair - and says:

“I can’t believe you thought a trail of breadcrumbs would save you. I mean, honestly, this is a forest! It’s full of animals. Honestly, the very idea that a dumb shit like you thought you could get the better of me is absurd.”

Gretel hits her in the face with said chair. To be fair to the witch, she takes the chairshot like a champ.

“Ow!”

“Did you know,” says Gretel, “that crows are capable of facial recognition?”

“Eh?” Says the witch, clambering to her feet and pulling a candy cane sledgehammer off the wall. “What’s that got to do with anything?”

“Not only that,” Gretel continues, “but they can remember both friends and enemies. And they’ll often follow people they remember as friends.”

The two fence with their sugared weapons for a moment, before the witch knocks the chair out of Gretel’s hands.

“Enough with the bird facts! Honestly, this whole attempted escape has been utter clownshoes. Get in the fucking oven!”

She seizes Gretel by the collar. Gretel immediately sandbags, letting her whole body go limp. This eminently practical defense forces the witch to try and deadlift her. Which is hard, as the witch often skips leg day.

“For example,” Gretel says, as the witch struggles and grunts, “if you feed crows a lot of breadcrumbs, they’ll probably start to see you as a friend and follow you in the hope of more food.”

The witch stops. Outside, she hears the thunder of wings.

“They’ll even bring you shiny things they find as presents!” Says Gretel, as a corner of the gingerbread ceiling is suddenly cut away by a large crow with a knife in its mouth.

“Oh shitballs.” Says the witch, as the crows descend. “I hope you know this is a great unkindness.”

“Technically,” Says Gretel, “It’s a murder.”

The Emerald and the Trumpeter Swan

Redrawing the Wicked piece that started it all, both the good and the not so good 😅 once upon a time, I thought I wouldn’t continue OEATS at all. But with the fandoms support, it’s become bigger and more vast than I could’ve ever imagined 🫶🏻

I’ve made some small adjustments to their designs based on my new understanding of these characters, both in canon and in fic. I’m very happy with this outcome. Your support means everything to me.

Just a reminder that I do have a kofi if you’d like to support me so I can keep creating for you, but ya’lls fun comments, reblogs, and kudos are just as good!!!

(Crazy how my style has changed in just a few months)

Sometimes you read a scene of a fanfic over and over because it's exactly what you want and you want to live there.

you ever feel like you were born with something rotten inside you and if people get close enough they’re gonna find out

The only way out of this is to choose yourself, again and again, even when it's hard. Even when it's terrifying. Even when you feel like the most broken, unworthy, worthless person in the world.
