always a fan of jon matteson’s starkid roles. i would’ve put paul or richie here too but i never drew them a way i liked so here’s old art of the green freak
a random day dream for you if you'd like.
Imagine A: Tinky himself can go in and out of the box to mess with Ted and any Spankoffski inside as he pleases.
B: he can somehow carry the box while inside the box. For everyone BUT Tinky, that box could also be the key out. Or at least it's rumored to be by those inside.
C: As basically a time god, the moment someone makes the decision to do something, Tinky could potentially see it coming if he's focused enough.
Imagine one day while messing with however many different timelines of Ted in the box, one version of Ted actually got bold. Instead of running, he tries to get the drop on Tinky to get the box and fails. But Tinky's amused enough by the attempt he makes a new game out of it. Basically "take this pebble from my hand" with the energy of roommates fighting over the remote. After many failed attempts (cause of course one of the only moments Tinky actively uses this kinda time sight is when he's messing with someone.) Ted gets desperate enough to decide the only weapon he's got left...is the ol Spankoffski charm. This time he reaches not for the box, but Tinky himself and pulls him into a kiss.
The moment Tinky sees it coming catches him off guard enough that the moment it happens, he's a flustered mess twice in a row. Like brain sounds like dial up for a good long minute even after Ted pulls back and runs with the box in his hands.
It may very well have been the moment Ted went from favorite toy to Tinky's hopeless crush. And then the moment after, the realization that his box is missing would send Tinky after that Ted like a bat outta hell.
Just the most out of nowhere daydream I ever got that I thought you might appreciate.
This took up 2 whole pages in my sketchbook, but I had to draw it. I couldn't stop thinking about this since you sent this ask
Anyways, I love this and I love you so much, this is amazing and you are brilliant. This is canon in the little tinkoffski story in my brain now. This is 100% what kicks it all off. I feel like Tinky would run off to Stopwatch after this to ask about what it in the world emotions are, cuz he's the only human he'd be willing to talk to. After all, he couldn't go to his brothers about it cuz A: they wouldn't know either and B: they'd 10000% judge him for it, or worse. From then on Tinky starts going to Daniel whenever he needs help with human issues and slowly but surely starts learning how to be less evil, lol
i hc that richie lives with paul, but their house is too far from hatchetfield high, so paul needs to drive richie at school every morning. but paul starts his work earlier, so richie spends an extra hour there doing nothing before his first period
when max joined the group, he offered richie to drive him at school instead of paul because they live close. sometimes while paul is about to leave home max arrives and just hang outs with richie before school. or sometimes he sleeps
