til Sherlock Holmes vs. Dracula, written 1978, was considered by the British Fantsy Society to be “one of the better” Dracula/Holmes crossovers. i was not previously aware this was a genre

i am sorry? Sherlock Homes vs Dracula? is a real book? and not a fever dream i had while scrolling through ao3????

apparently it’s a real genre and it doesn’t end there!

have you ever wanted to read a comic book pitting the wits of the famous Sherlock Holmes against the Menace of the world’s most infamous vampire? Now you can have multiple series!!!

In conclusion, die old, leave behind a body of literature for the world to ransack

you say this but I checked ao3 and to my shock and disappointement there are only 2 fics for Dracula/Sherlock, I am devastated

Good news Gaud! My flatmate’s grandad wrote a Sherlock Holmes/Dracula novel in 2011! Her grandma illustrated it!

I think you can only get it on Amazon unfortunately :(

Me and my other flatmates were actively campaigning for him to add a smut chapter. He said he’d think about it, but as he’s 96 I don’t know that there’s too much thinking time left :(

please tell your flatmate’s 96 year old grandpa that dozens of internet strangers are cheering for him/actively begging him to add a sherlock x dracula smut chapter to his sherlock x dracula fanfic

it is 2023 and I am once again reminding you that there are STILL only 2 Dracula/Sherlock Holmes works on ao3. do the heavens truly expect me to countenance this travesty??

[DC] oh no…I turned timkon into a miraculous ladybug lovesquare 🤒

Anyways this will barely make sense but Conner -> Tim / Robin -> Superboy is sort of supposed to be like the early timkon dynamic in the comics where they’d sometimes butt heads, but then the Tim -> Conner/Superboy-> Robin is supposed to be like later timkon where there’s more obvious admiration lololol

[Lovesquare Au]

Part 0 || Next >>

I watched the mlb movie and caught up w the show so I got au brainrot again 💀 My first post was more silly and had smaller snippets but somehow I got carried away and ended up drawing a lot more than the first time around. I’ll post it in parts tho so I don’t overload one post 🙏

In short, Tim -> likes Conner…but is fond of Superboy? Kon -> likes Robin, but has gotten to know Tim a lot better.

And the timeline/world for this au is a big mishmash of 90s comics/ROTS movie/TT03/2000s comics and headcanons, so in summary for backstory for this post especially:

Superboy - during Superman’s death, he was created at Cadmus (w funding from Lex) and told he was Superman’s clone, even if he is a lot younger and different. Like the comics/my headcanon, he is fascinated by the celebrity life and Lex who promised him he’d be as great as Superman, assigned him Rex Leech who would be his personal agent/pr manager/etc. Lex was kind of like…his funder and sponsor that promoted him as the guy that would give new hope in Supermans absence.

Flash forward to Superman’s return, he decides to go on a world tour/become disillusioned with celebrity life until Clark comes and takes him to the farm and suggests he lives as Conner Kent to get away from the likes of people like Lex and Rex lol. So he’s not connected to them by contract anymore but he will do things out of obligation (like being a bodyguard at a party)

In this au, Lex doesn’t know Conner is Superboy either, and he hasn’t told Kon to what extent he was involved in Kon’s creation (yet…) but he’s hinted at it before

Tim - in this au, he’s also been operating as Robin for a longer time but is recently dealing with also becoming Tim Drake-Wayne and preparing to become the possible successor to Bruce Wayne’s company so that’s why he’s at this fancy party 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️ I haven’t quite decided how much of his backstory to adapt to this au specifically but he becomes Robin in a similar way as his debut with becoming Robin bc he sees that Batman is lost without one and Batman needs a Robin. By the time this au starts he’s gone to different schools and I guess is going to a new one where Conner is also attending? Also his parents are now dead in this 😔 and he’s very secretive compared to Superboy and is the one that attaches more weight to a secret identity

they somehow go to the same school idk don’t worry about it i throw logic out the window in this regard for my silly lovesquare shenanigans 🫡 the World building isn’t the main focus it’s just a backdrop to their dynamic anyways . Here. Take my cringe.

by far the funniest thing you can say immediately after winning the NBA finals

for those of you who don’t follow basketball, this guy is the best player in the world right now

#you don’t understand how completely devoted jokic is to racing horses#he’s tried to quit basketball several times to commit full time to his horses#he doesn’t even like playing basketball i don’t think, he’s just stupid good at it#he’s counting down the days until he can retire to move back to serbia and work with his horses#his post retirement plans are becoming a ‘trotting coach’ his words @sayheykid​

#HOW TO DODGE NBA DRAFT

this narrative needs to be exposed to the world and not hidden in the tags. long live star wars espn sportzone chat.

its yellow you are all wrong i have decided just now

hey op, what does this say?

nice try but i’m not colorblind it says 71

Am I tripping?

Is that not 71?

You’re slightly colorblind, that is 74 and the color of the car is orange.

world heritage post

It’s orange

it’s literally 71

Bestie it’s 74

Y’all it clearly fucking says 21

where are you getting that from?

Babes it’s 81 what r yall seeing

its 74 bestie you might be colorblind

That 81 person can see shrimp colors

I took exactly the same image, increased the saturation, and shifted it to a part of the spectrum most people can see better.

For all your no-YOU-have-the-weird-color-vision argument-solving needs.

Also, the car is orange.

orange you glad about that

dnd jokes that will always be funny no matter what your dm tells you

• "jesus christ" "who's that"
• "this is just like (tv show/movie)" "that's my favorite play"
• referring to famous musicians or actors from the real world as "bards"
• adding the word "fantasy" in front of modern things (i pull out my Fantasy iPhone and open Fantasy Tinder)
• "how hurt are you" "on a scale of one to twenty-eight i'd say i'm at about a nine."

feel free to add more

• Survive for 10 Minutes with a Werewolf.

• In a Fight.

so embarrassing when i forget im checking someone's blog and i start scrolling through and liking and reblogging shit as if it's just my dash. it feels like wandering into someone else's apartment and not noticing and making myself lunch

reblog if i can wander into your apartment (blog) and make myself lunch (like and reblog as if it's my dash)

Piers Morgan doesn't understand that actors are different from the characters they portray onscreen

Reblog if you'd love to see Daniel Craig in an Austin Powers tribute act

Ruby Bridges is 68. This is not ancient history. Not even close.

I know Ruby. She's a really nice person. The idea that they would try and write what she did as a girl out of history is shocking to me on so many levels, the simplest of which is just, but don't they know how lovely she is?

With NASA announcing their streaming service NASA+ and also announcing it’s going to be free and also ad free, I’d just like to appreciate the lengths they go to make scientific knowledge and exploration as available as they possibly can.

There's more info at this link. Gosh I'm excited about this.

Gonna watch so much space stuff!
