Ben doesn’t even know why he’s doing this show.

But he knows he’s going to prove that he’s the best amateur baker in all of Chandrila.]

slightly blurry screencap from spongebob. spongebob is standing by the front door in his green robe, hands in fists, expression angry. it's from the jellyfish episode, so the pineapple is a mess and there are bits of jellyfish jelly on the walls and floor.

— magical school au unlike any other! what if Ben was still the prodigal son that was promised, but also kind of a jock? what if Rey assumes they're ETL, but the the real Lover was the friend she accidentally made a long the way?

nocturne | @lilynails.bsky.social
— I'm never going to get over this fic! ever!! and that's a promise! the writing is so fucking smart, clever, and funny. lilynails writes her characters emotions+motivations with such breadth and interiority. it's been a real joy to follow along with them this year.

— my first #reyloween read of the season, and it was a great reminder that I need to seek out T rated fic regularly!! this was spooky, immersive, and it had a very fun reveal at the end. def read if you love art history, or if you like a strong sense of place.

paging doctor dick | @janejanajuno.bsky.social
— lighthearted and gorgeous fic about the values and virtues of having friends who contain vast multitudes. Rey's friends can: poke fun at her, express genuine care/worry for her, and lay into her new beau. all in one (tipsy) sitting. a talented bunch!

from the beginning here: archiveofourown.org/works/639334...

latest chapter here: archiveofourown.org/works/639334...

screenshot from the series eight episode of new dw, "dark water." in this scene, the recently deceased danny pink has suddenly awoken in a bureaucratic hell of an afterlife, welcomed by paper pusher and doofus, chris addison. addison has just asked if danny is going to be cremated, and when danny says "idk????" addison says, "pretty much the standard these days," zooms across the grim, nubby blue cubicle carpet and leans out the door to shout "we've got a burner!" it has been edited to say "we've got a yearner!"

and yes. nine DID make the entire screenshot, including the original caption. that's what we call Committing To the Bit.

When Rey's shitty landlord pulls the rug out from under her, she has only two weeks to find a new place to live.
Luckily, her best friend, Kaydel, has a solution: take her older brother's spare room until she gets back on her feet.
It's a shame Kay didn't ask her brother, Ben, first, but they'll all survive without any permanent damage to their social group's ecosystem! Probably!]

read the essay here: buff.ly/y3j0KUa
on ao3 here: buff.ly/gDWyCnG

a monochromatic freehand digital painting of Adam Driver as he appeared during the curtain call on opening night for "Hold On To Me Darling", hair in gently disheveled disarray, tear-dampened happy gaze looking leftward, a deeply satisfied smile tugging his mustachioed mouth wide and tight, crinkling the corners of his eyes and rumpling his dimples, the proud lift of his chest and slight tuck of his bearded chin carving a few furrows into the gentle twist of his neck, the unbuttoned collar of his shirt revealing the strong column of his throat and a peek of his collar bone under the tangle of Strings' necklaces.
