I joked about it very lightly in my last post but I do get the like, inherent contradiction of “Jame7t Fucking Hates Ads” and “jame7t won’t stop fucking posting their Stream Promos.” I DO get that & if you’re a little hater that’s your right but: I also operate on the case where like, if you’re a person? Reblog your own art.
Promote your video, your podcast, whatever it is: seriously, like, show it off. Again. Do it again. If nobody interacts there’s a million reasons why they haven’t and it’s never an immediate malice.
It’s “I haven’t watched this yet, so I don’t know what’s in it” it’s “this art/selfie is awesome but I have weird fucking followers so I don’t wanna accidentally sic them on you.” Often times, it’s people being in the other side of the planet and not seeing your post while they’re awake.*
Like, I am physically incapable of judging people for promoting their own stuff on their blogs, yknow? You’re not a corporation.**
Show your art to people shamelessly.***
*There’s several caveats here obviously don’t take this advice as permission to clout farm and always remember to be kind and have tact or something that resembles tact
**if you are a corporation ignore this post
***I’m not pretending my streams are art I just straight up have fun with my friends and like to share that with people. I love humility and video game

Warning! Potential spoilers for Stranger Things 5!
To recap, Alex received this dm on 13/2/23, seemingly confirming mileven breakup
Tumblr media
She received this message on that day, which states that mileven are still together and happy. However it’s also instantly debunkable bc they’re absolutely not going to do the Hopper-Mike feud bs again. That is beyond clear.
Tumblr media
On this past Tuesday, 20/2/23, she received a second message outright stating Mileven breakup.
Tumblr media
Finally, on Wednesday, 21/2/23, she received this message full of pretty plausible statements, with mileven breakup included as fact. Interesting.
Tumblr media
This person claims it’s all fake, with no rationale or alt info - what, is Will not important now?
Tumblr media
Worth noting: Millie is currently doing promo for Damsels, so she’ll be out of commission re: filming for a few weeks. Early March is probably when she’ll come back, but Finn will be be busy with his Ghosbusters 2 promo.
Two conclusions:
1.) there will be no mileven scenes filmed for a few weeks. Filming schedules are very tightly planned to accommodate other actor commitments, so it doesn’t seem like this posed a massive issue. Hm.
2,) Millie will likely be doing any scenes she has with Sadie and Caleb, aka Max and Lucas, when she gets back. As this message says.
This person is probably just smart and well-informed enough to figure this out, but it’s interesting.
There has been some very intriguing activity on a stranger things set a few days ago - red UD ligthing, castle Byers.., and Will Byers. Will’s plotline for season 5 seriously looks like everything us Will stans have been dreaming of in terms of plot relevance, emotional catharsis, etc. This pic dropped yesterday, and the spoiler acc seems to have confirmed it’s Will:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lastly,this also dropped today:
(Credit to @1987byler on twt)
Very strange framework, here. If the goal is to set up Will being rejected gently by Mike, but understood and accepted, why not focus on that? Why not have Vecna say ‘you’re afraid he’ll be disgusted by you. You’re afraid he’ll see you as the disgusting, broken boy you are’ or something like that? Elsewhere in the game, it’s being reported by players that Will is being taunted about how his friends are all ignoring him, and how Max fits into the group better than he does. This is canonically a sore spot for him - not so much the Max part, but the general point. So why not emphasise his fear of Mike’s rejection, rather than his hurt at Mike picking El over him?
Maybe because, if this is carried into s5 and we get scenes of Vecna taunting Will about Mike choosing El, it’ll be certain that Mike will indeed pick Will. Maybe this is a means of hinting that?
(Side note: at this point in the time line, El was really just a concept to Will. The one time he met her, it was for barely a minute as a delirious, dying child. By s4, it’s very clear that they’re close and loving. I’ll hear no critique of him for apparently not wanting her to come back - it’s very obviously Vecna twisting things, as he did with Max in s4 to make it seem like she actively wanted to murder Billy.)
Also worth noting: the best Mike can say about the girl he supposedly loved at first sight, after a whole week with her, is that she’s ‘cool’, ‘different’, ‘awesome’. Very lacklustre. Compare to how Lucas would describe the comatose max to a newcomer in s4.
Finally: Will quite literally utilises a never-seen memory of Mike and him in Castle Byers as his happy menory, his safe place. You know,like the Snow Ball and those other memories of good times with Lucas that Max clung to in s4?
Credit to @will80sbyers
This post by @nebulousfishgills reports Vecna saying that Will is ‘the key’, manipulating Will’s memories, and directly saying “You’ll finally matter to someone, Will.” Byler kind of has to be endgame, right? For this to make any sense as a narrative? ‘We can still be friends’ won’t cut it, not if, as the messages Alex is getting make out, Will is still so achingly in love post-time jump that he’s staying by Mike’s hospital bed after everyone else leaves and kissing his forehead (a). Not if they’re still emphasising that Mike is his safe place, his home, his light, in (technically) pre-season five promotional material.
All of this is… interesting, to say the least.
I’ll leave off by sharing the posts made by the wonderful @solgmorell on the set leak (x) and the VR byler stuff (x, y).
(a)
ETA: two of the previous dms Alex has gotten state that Will struggles with his friendships with the other party member this season due to being closeted. This game touches heavily on Will’s feeling disconnected from his friends, at least partly bc of his sexuality…. One is above, the other is here:

Just finished Episode 8 of Percy Jackson and here’s my thoughts:
Ares fight was underwhelming
THAT’S Hades’ helm? No way that twink’s fitting in that bulky helmet, pull the other one…
”If you’re small and scary, you get squished” CHILLS
Percy had BALLS to challenge Zeus like that
DADDY’S HOME! Oh, yes! This had everything I wanted! Poseidon protected his son, there was Ancient Greek, both father and son gushed about how awesome Sally Jackson is (as they should) it was just so wholesome, best part of the episode for real
I honestly cracked up at the fact that Zeus was swayed when Poseidon began praising Thalia, the guy’s such an egomaniac, he probably saw that as praise directed towards him, it’s remarkable
I might be misremembering the book, but was the finale really Luke doing the world’s most underwhelming unboxing video with the borders of camp? I don’t think it was
More Dionysus getting Percy’s name wrong, we love to see it
Not the shameless self promo of Annabeth going to Disney World-
Kronos stop popping up to say cryptic shit before vanishing, just get to the point dude
It was actually so interesting that Sally makes Percy write down whatever his dear old grandpa says to him in his dreams, that’s the sort of parenting that every demigod needs - family history, Ancient Greek, good morals, and good practical advice, she’s the best
I was genuinely so scared that they’d cut Gabe turning into a statue and it was pretty annoying that they turned it from Sally taking action and being an iconic girl boss to Gabe just being a dumbass, give Sally her credit
WHY wasn’t there a note in the credits that said ‘Percy Jackson will return’? Just give us more, you cowards!

Somewhere in Manila, 2078
Tumblr media
“It is pretty nice here,” V said, and Kerry put his arm around him, pulling him a bit closer as he turned his head to look at him.
“C’mon, just ‘pretty nice’?” he asked grinning.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“Okay, it’s beautiful, breathtaking, astounding!” V said and Kerry chuckled, “You weren’t exaggerating.”
“And this is just the hotel! Wait ‘til you see the city. And the beaches! But we gotta drive a little to get to the better ones. Nothin’ beats the one in Tangalan anyway, but that’ll have to wait 'til next week…”
Tumblr media
Kerry went on rambling about all they had planned, everything he wanted to show V, parties and events they could go to, the secret spots only he and maybe a handful of other people knew. Some of it all sounded quite adventurous, and V still struggled to imagine Kerry clambering through the jungle to get to some of these extra special hidden gems. But his excitement was downright infectious. Truly just adorable. V was relieved to see Kerry so genuinely happy again, too, the stress of the last weeks really had been weighing him down. Getting ready for this trip in the background had been his sole motivator for staying on top of the mountain of promo events for his album.
Just three more interviews before we can get on the plane. Just this one photoshoot, and then I can finally start packing my stuff. That one private show, that one industry party, that one red carpet, and then Lee can kiss my ass and we’ll fuck off across the Pacific.
Being here now finally, chilling at the hotel bar and recovering from the long flight, still felt somewhat surreal.
“… - and we really gotta go to Quinta Market later. Gonna cure your resentment to street food there once and for all.”
Kerry took a sip of his drink, then looked back at V, who had been watching him the whole time, a little tired and absentmindedly, but full of affection.
Tumblr media
“What?” he asked, frowning slightly, but kept up his smile, the silver lines around his eyes and down his cheeks sparkling in the setting sun.
“Nothin’,” V said, “I’m happy you’re happy to be back here, is all.”
Kerry leaned over and gave him a quick kiss.
“I’m happy you’re here with me,” he said, “That’s all that matters.”
Tumblr media
AAAAHHH. A little bit of behind the scenes rambling here!!!
Tumblr media
I didn't forget to take a pic of my setup at least this time XD I set this up at Denny's pool (free of concrete thankfully), because there is little distracting Night City scenery in the background that would destroy the illusion of this not being Night City xD But admittedly, the setup was a little rushed bc I just wanted to do some fluffy pics. I could actually spend hours setting up my scenes with all the awesome props I keep discovering o.o
Also: I had Kerry's summer vibes outfit ready since early June, but just didn't get around to doing anything with it until two weeks ago, AND THEN I didn't have time to edit the pics because other stuff kept grabbing my attention instead xD
But there is more to come, I have a whole lot more summer pics ready, all incredibly fluffy... because I need some fluff and knowing they have this in their future waiting for them, while on the side I'm writing the most angsty fic with constant dread and setbacks and death looming on the horizon, you know XD
Dad Shirts by @pinkyjulien 💛 I love them so much, I want Kerry's shirt for myself irl, it's my fave of the tropical recolors, the colors and pattern are so nice... and suit him so well imo!!
Also this is totally the follow up to the road trip pics I posted last week. They drove to L.A., spent a day or two there, and then hopped on the plane to Manila xD

I'm fucking bad with asks, lmfao. I hope you weren't waiting forever. 😬 I don't remember taking left side photo. Being completely honest. When you've taken so many photos your brain starts to draw blanks & toss out unneeded information. I think it was a catalog for Zara? 🤨 I'm 90% sure it was, I've done a handful of collections for 'em & my hair was never longer than neck length during that time. Top right is part of an older portfolio, top middle was a promo shoot, bottom is of a more recent photoshoot, mostly consisting of headshots, after my plate reversal surgery. Some of those are old. I sent a follow request to your first IG. Are you Russian? Cause that's fuckin' awesome, always wanted to learn the language. Shout out to you for boldly asking for a follow, I know people in general despise it when others drop their socials & ask for follows cause "clout chasing", "attention seeking" & "controversial", blah, blah, blah.

Such Nights as This
Tumblr media
pairing: roddy piper x f!reader
word count: 1759
warnings: mutual masturbation, phone sex, use of sex toys, daddy kink
the title is from the Roman poet Propertius describing his beloved: "while I live I am hers, hers will I be in death. But if she grants till then such nights as this to me, a single year would be a long life's span; and if she gives them often, I would never die: one night like this could make a man a god!"
-------------------------------------
When your phone rang, you didn’t hesitate for a second to answer it, knowing it would be Roddy. “Well, hello there.”
“Hey gorgeous.” His already-raspy voice was hoarse after a lengthy promo that night, and the sound swirled through your body. “How you doing tonight?”
You laid back on the bed to relax while talking. He had only been gone two days, but ever since you had moved in together and had gotten used to always having him around, his absences were all the more frustrating. The two of you caught up on everything that had happened since your last conversation (just last night), your work day and his show a couple hours earlier. 
“Babe, listen,” Roddy began, his voice deepening a touch. “I really miss you, you know that?”
“I know. I miss you a lot too. It won’t be much longer, though. It’s a short trip.”
“Yeah yeah. You know, I actually got my own room this time.”
“Yeah? That’s awesome. You don’t have to deal with anyone throwing pillows at you when you snore!”
“Ha ha, funny. But I can also do what I want. All by myself. As much as I want…”
“Roddy, you slut,” you jokingly chastised him. “With all that freedom I’m surprised you’re wasting your time talking to me.”
He lightly chuckled before continuing. “Listen, I want you to do something for me. It’s not what you think.” You paused, knowing he had more to say. “I mean, it kind of is what you think, but something else first.”
“Just tell me what it is, babe.” You couldn’t help smiling to yourself in anticipation.
“The dresser in our room. Go take a look in the bottom drawer, under the sweaters.”
What the hell did he have planned? Why did he want you to dig through a drawer? You sighed dramatically as you got up. “What am I looking for?”
“You’ll know when you see it. Trust me.” And he was right. Exactly where he had said, under the sweaters, was a small box, about half the size of a shoebox, with your name written on it in his scrawl. 
“Roddy… what is this?”
“Just open it, baby.” 
You did as instructed, and a small chuckle escaped your lips. You hadn’t known what you expected to find in the box, but in hindsight you probably should’ve expected the sex toy that now rested in your hands. “Jesus, Roddy, you got me a vibrator? And hid it from me?”
He scoffed. “Like I don’t know about your other one. This one’s for us.”
“For us? So you want me to use it on you?”
“Eh, let’s think about that some other time. Right now I want you to use it on yourself. I made sure it’s already charged.”
“Right now? Should… should I hang up?”
“Don’t ask silly questions, baby. I want to hear every little whimper you make once you turn that thing on. I’m already rock hard thinkin about it.” 
You let out a shaky breath and blinked quickly to clear your mind. Some tiny part of your brain felt nervous about the idea of using a sex toy while someone else was listening, even if that someone else was the love of your life. But some greater part of your brain smothered that thought, because you really really wanted to do this. “Alright. Do you have a specific plan for me?”
“Hmm… well you definitely should take all your clothes off. Not just your pants; everything.” As he spoke, you did what he instructed, setting the phone on speaker mode so you’d have both hands free. “Make sure you pile up the pillows and get yourself all nice and comfy.”
“What about you? Are you all nice and comfy too?”
“Of course. I’ve had my dick in my hand this whole time, just thinking about you all naked for me. Play with your nipples, pinch them a little. Do that little thing I do that you like so much.”
You knew what he meant, and you closed your eyes to imagine it was Roddy working you over instead of your own hands. As he continued his directions, you found it increasingly difficult to resist grabbing the vibrator, but you knew that the wait would be worth it. Even being in a different city, he had you obeying his every word, completely wrapped around his finger. Exactly the way you liked it.
“Alright, princess, how about you spread those gorgeous thighs for me? Don’t do anything yet, just spread ‘em. Good girl. Now just slide one finger in, and tell me how wet you are.”
“Mmm... so wet.”
“Yeah? Good. Taste yourself for me. Lick yourself off that finger and tell me how you taste.”
You moaned as you followed his command. “Tastes so good, Roddy. I wish you were here to taste it for yourself.”
Through the speaker you heard him sharply inhale. “Fuck, me too. When I get back I’m gonna make up for all this lost time. You got your special new toy ready?”
“Mmhmm.” You didn’t trust your voice; you were too caught up in the moment to be coherent.
“Good girl. Now you can turn it on, just to the first setting.” A low buzzing sound filled the room. “Nice, baby, that’s it. Go ahead and put it on that pretty pussy. Right around your clit.” 
“Oh fuck.” The words were out before you realized it. For such an average-sized toy, it certainly had some power to it. This is just the first setting? you thought to yourself. 
Roddy’s breathing sounded shaky already. “Don’t cum without me, babe,” you admonished him. 
“Wouldn’t dream of it. I just… you sound so good, my beautiful girl. I can picture you lying there on our bed, all soaking wet for me, playing with your clit and pretending it’s me. I know you look so fucking hot like that, baby.”
His words made you whimper. The vibrator felt great, but nothing felt as right as Roddy. “You still touching yourself?” you asked, suspecting you knew the answer already.
“Had to take a break.” He let out a breathy chuckle. “Hearing my girl had me almost ready to cum all over myself. Keep going - move it around, see how it feels on every part of your pussy, tell me about it.”
One hand was still on your breast, and you kept it there while you slowly traced the vibrator along your folds, pausing to press it to your entrance. The tease of penetration combined with the vibrating silicone drew a deep moan from you as your words failed.
“Oh I like that sound. You put it in a little bit, didn’t you?” You wordlessly agreed. “Good girl. Why don’t you work it in a little more? I bet that vibration feels so good inside you.”
All sorts of salacious utterances spilled from your lips as you slid the toy into your dripping pussy, feeling every sensation that it offered you. “Babe… please…” 
“What do you need, baby? Tell me.” 
Truthfully, you didn’t even know what you were pleading for. “I just need you, baby, I need you to fuck me.” 
“I will soon, as soon as I can. You know that. Can you do something for me?”
“Anything.”
“Click the little button on that toy. Put it up to the next level.”
Although you weren’t thrusting or really moving it at all, the added intensity set you on edge. “Fuck, oh fuck, I’m so… oh my god it feels so good.”
“Good, I like hearing that.” You could tell from his quavering tone that he had taken himself in hand again, softly groaning as he spoke. “Take the vibrator out.”
You nearly froze in surprise. “What? Why?”
“Just do it.” You did. “Here’s what you’re going to do now. You’re going to use it on your clit, drive yourself insane, okay baby? And you’re gonna use your fingers inside to make yourself feel even better. Start with two fingers. Can you do that for me?”
Your own voice trembled as you responded. “Yes, daddy.” 
Fuck. You hadn’t meant to say that. It had slipped out two or three times before, and you knew he was into it, but it still felt like a new and unfamiliar step. 
“Oh fuck, sweetheart. I need to hear you say it again.”
This time you spoke with more confidence. “Yes, daddy.” 
“God, you better be fucking yourself right now, because I’m not gonna make it much longer, hearing that. You doing what I said?”
“Mmhmm.”
“Good girl. Three fingers now, okay? Three fingers for daddy.”
There were no words to describe the moan you uttered when he said that. You quickly obeyed, easily sliding a third finger into your drenched hole. With your free hand, you positioned the vibrator directly on your clit, letting it send shivering currents through your overly sensitive body. 
“You sound so sexy, baby. I’m getting so close.” You noted the changes in his breath, and knew he wasn’t exaggerating. “Get yourself there for me, I want you to cum with me.” 
“I’m… fuck I’m so close. Please.” You were all but panting into the speaker at this point, desperate for release but wanting to time it perfectly with him.
“Good girl. Make yourself cum, baby, cum for me. Cum for daddy.” He was barely able to pronounce the final word, he was so close to the precipice.
Hearing Roddy call himself daddy once more was all you needed. You cried out all manner of unholy things as an intense orgasm slammed into you. “Oh fuck daddy, I’m coming for you, fuck-”
A hoarse groan on the other end of the phone let you know that he too had reached his peak. “That’s it, baby, I’m coming for you too. I’m… fuck yeah… oh my god…”
For the next moment, the only sounds were laborious breathing and weak whimpers as you both rode out the waves of pleasure, thinking only of each other. You blindly reached out for the vibrator you had dropped in the heat of the moment, making sure to switch it off.
“I fucking love you so much, baby,” Roddy breathed into the phone. “I really do.”
“I love you too.” 
He laughed suddenly. “Best purchase ever. It felt good?”
“So fucking good,” you answered honestly, then paused. “I still miss you, though. I wish you were here.”
“Me too, baby. I’ll be back soon, though, yeah? And you can show me all your tricks with your new toy.”

Catching up on Replies and Thank Yous
Hi guys! Man, it feels like forever since I’ve done one of these. I’ve basically spent most of 2023 applying for any job out of state or that offers remote work. The cost of living in California just keeps rising, so I’ve basically been taking the spray ‘n’ prey method to job applications. In total, I’ve sent out over 100 job apps, and I’m hoping to see some promising responses.
I can’t emphasize enough how important this blog and my followers have been to my mental health. It’s the only area of my life where I can decompress, be myself, and do something of personal value beyond the pursuit of money--- Which make the donations I have received through Ko-Fi all the more meaningful. I love you all.
In short, just wanted to say thank you to everyone who donated to my Ko-Fi this past year! Shoutout to TrillbySkinner, Bast, Jasper, @chiptrillino​, Jarl Deathwolf, Chrysos, Treesah, and Mike for their generosity! And BIGGEST thanks of all to my subscriber and supporter KMA for the monthly donations. I really appreciate everyone’s generosity, especially during these difficult times! TTwTT If any of you would like me to analyze a particular subject or shout out your Tumblr, please feel free to reach out to me.
Tumblr media
You’re welcome!

@simuran​
Not sure if I’ll watch the Netflix adaption, but I’ll definitely keep commenting on the costuming and props as more promo images come out! ^_^ And thank you for your continued readership!

You Should Watch Miami Vice:
A treatise on the most poorly-remembered show of the 80′s
Tumblr media Tumblr media
If you’re like most people, when you hear Miami Vice outside the context of a bar, you picture the following: shoulder pads, speed boats, bikinis, and pink and teal pastel. You probably think about the worst excesses of the 1980′s, of a kind of cultural sinkhole where there was nothing cooler than Ray-Bans and masculine posturing.
However, much like Captain Kirk is (mis)remembered as a sleazy womanizer, and the first Rambo movie is (mis)remembered as a paean to how AWESOME KNIVES ARE, Miami Vice has been frozen in pop-culture memory as something it really isn’t. A funhouse mirror reflection of what it was actually all about.  Because the thing is: Miami Vice is good. Like, really good. 
At its core, it’s a show that is:
Well-written, with a coherent emotional and thematic arc across its seasons, despite being made before the era of arc-based TV
Incredibly beautiful, with cinematography, directing, and musical/sound editing choices that literally changed the way television was produced
Deeply, sometimes painfully human, with main characters who are often wrong and/or make bad decisions with real consequences, and who often ‘lose’
And on top of that, it’s not really copaganda (no, really), and it’s pretty damn queer (yes, really.) It’s also an old-school episodic show, which means the characters have a ton of space to breathe and grow and be multi-faceted, and the production has room to experiment, both with technical stuff and the writing. There are episodes that are so deadly serious your mouth feels dry as the credits roll; there are weird, silly, fun episodes where utterly bonkers things happen; there are episodes that feel like David Lynch was moonlighting as director. It’s neo-noir, it’s magical realism, it’s a workplace comedy, it’s a treatise on how there’s no reforming unjust systems, it’s a love story about two men who refuse to grapple with the idea that they’re the most important thing in each other’s lives.
You should watch it. But let me keep trying to convince you, anyway.
Tumblr media
Vice was the brainchild of Michael Mann and Anthony Yerkovitch, and in 1984, it looked and sounded like nothing else on TV. There’s an auteur touch to the majority of episodes-- not just a unified look, but a willingness to try things that worked in the movies on the small screen. When you watch a lot of shows from the early to mid 80′s, they look the same as shows from the 70′s-- en episode of Spenser for Hire could’ve been shot on the same day as an episode of Starsky and Hutch. People talk about the legacy of shows that led to our modern era of “prestige TV--” there’d have been no Sopranos without The Wire, etc-- but in a lot of ways, with its artistic, film-like framing, melancholic New Wave aesthetics, and abnormally high production values, Miami Vice is the grandpappy of all of them. 
Tumblr media
The recurring cast is very small: for most of the show, it’s these seven characters. (No, I don’t know why this cast photo is posed like they’re at a wedding for someone they don’t seem to like very much. Literally all of the promo photos for this show look like terrible wedding or prom shoots.)
Tumblr media
From the top left, we have Larry Zito (Hawaiian shirt) and Stan Switek (pink stripes); they’re initially the comic relief. They love Elvis and bicker like an old married couple, and as partners they get a lot of the surveillance jobs. They do not escape the show unscathed.
Tumblr media
The two ladies are Gina Calabrese (blue belted dress) and Trudy Joplin (palm tree dress); I adore them and they are wonderful, and each of them gets a couple of solid episodes, but they aren’t always given the most spectacular scripts. Gina is both the sweetest, most naive member of the group and the one most likely to shoot first and ask questions later; Trudy is an expert researcher and cannot be arsed to do emotional labor for her dumb male colleagues.
Tumblr media
The man in the black suit with the moustache is the squad’s lieutenant, Martin Castillo. Castillo doesn’t show up until episode six, and when he does the show’s whole tone kind of suddenly clicks into place. Castillo is weird. He speaks very little and blinks less; he makes eye contact with no one unless he is making so much eye contact it makes you want to bury yourself in the dirt. Also he’s maybe secretly a samurai?
Tumblr media
Then we have the two assholes in front, our main characters: Sonny Crockett and Ricardo Tubbs. Sonny (white guy in spring green and lavendar, the kind of man who wears a sleeveless shirt under a blazer) is a career Miami cop with a history of unprocessed trauma, a conga line of dead friends and partners, a wife who is trying her best to divorce him, and a six year old son he has no idea how to parent but loves very deeply. Rico (Black guy in grey and white, the kind of man who wears a three piece suit in 98 degree weather with 100% humidity) is a New York transplant with a dead brother, an utterly bizarre sense of humor, the world’s worst taste in women, and a terminal need to fix every broken person he’s ever come across while also probably sleeping with them. Their relationship is the emotional core of the series. Neither of them is equipped to handle this.
Sonny is probably the worst-remembered part of the whole badly-remembered series. Pop culture positions him as a wise-cracking cowboy cop who drives too fast and lives even faster, when in reality mostly Sonny is just very depressed, very lonely, and almost certainly a self-hating closeted bisexual.
Tumblr media
He is a sad, bitchy pretty boy who legitimately thinks the only thing he’s good for is waving a gun around, and he only drives his government-owned drug dealer Ferrari so fast because he’s trying to drive away from his feelings.
Vice is a five season show, and unfortunately, you’ll often see fans arguing about the seasons and whether or not you can or should skip any of them. Here’s the thing: it’s an episodic show from the 80′s. No matter how much Mann or any of the other showrunners tried to make it consistent across its runtime, that’s not really how TV works. 113 episodes does not a movie make. Because of this, each season does feel a bit different from prior seasons, and which season you prefer is going to depend a lot on your personal tastes. Nonetheless, I wouldn’t recommend skipping any of them-- when you do watch the show from the pilot to the finale, it really does feel like one coherent storyline.
Season 1: Many people’s favorite season. A good mixture of tragedy, comedy, mystery, etc. The first six episodes are still kind of “working things out” tonally, but the whole season is worth watching. My personal favorite S1 episode (Evan, the second to last of the season) isn’t available on all sources, but is an absolute must watch, especially in terms of providing context for understanding Sonny as a closeted queer man.
Tumblr media
Season 2: My favorite season. The show has its footing and knows what it wants from its characters and its audience. I would argue that almost every episode of this season is a good one, and it’s thematically very consistent. (Also, I think, possibly the most “fun” season despite a lot of darkness?)
Tumblr media
Season 3: Also a lot of people’s favorite season, although PERSONALLY I think of S3 as “the police brutality is good, actually” season. Dick Wolf (yes, that Dick Wolf) was the showrunner for this one, and he wanted it to be “grittier.” I think S3 is necessary for understanding Sonny and especially for understanding the relationship between Sonny and Rico, but it’s definitely the copaganda season.
Tumblr media
Season 4: The season a lot of people feel you should skip, because it’s “too weird” or where the show jumped the shark. There are some... real strange episodes in this season, including one about aliens and another about cow semen. For real. I’ll be honest: I kind of love S4. It backpedals the grittiness and focuses more on the characters’ inner lives again, S4 also ends with a fantastic two part cliffhanger that is picked up at the beginning of S5.
Tumblr media
Season 5: A truncated half-season with a couple of “lost” episodes that actually fit in before the finale. Season Five is sad. The fallout from the end of S4 is heavy, grim stuff, and S5 doesn’t shy away from showing how that has fucked everyone to hell and back. The finale of the show is thematically excellent and emotionally satisfying; while the show was cancelled, they wrapped it up successfully.
Tumblr media
“Okay, fine,” you say, sipping the cafecito I handed you while I explained all of this, “so it’s not just about a cool guy in an Armani suit driving an Italian car really fast. But you mentioned it was gay? It still doesn’t sound very gay.”
Well. Let’s see.
There’s what should be a cringey “very special episode” about gay cops in 1984 that is instead one of the most heartfelt and upsetting episodes in the series. Never once does this episode no-homo the main characters, and in fact, men being able to touch each other is positioned as healing and necessary.
Sonny and Rico are the only people who think the other is funny. Their hands and eyes are on each other all the time. Rico used to watch Sonny’s college games on TV and remembers his number. They both repeatedly throw missions for each others’ sakes. They spend all of their time together. There’s an on-screen “I love you” (there’s a ‘man’ at the end but it rings like someone hedging his bets) and a few episodes later the character who received the I love you marries a random woman he literally met less than a week ago in what can only be described as the saddest and most desperate attempt to Not Be Gay Anymore ever caught on film. They cradle each others’ heads more than once. A song about “loving the boy with the pretty green eyes” plays in the background of a conversation they have about following each other to the end of the earth in the finale.
All.

You finish your third cafecito, shaking slightly from the caffeine, trying to prevent me from handing you a fourth. “Fine,” you admit. “But I still need more convincing. I can’t just watch something that’s good and thematically whole and about two sad men in love. It needs to also have... have some kind of, I don’t know, je ne sais quoi about it. A little extra spice.” Your hand rattles the demitasse against the saucer as you speak.
I pull off my food service uniform to reveal that underneath, I’m dressed as a carnival barker.
WELL. LET ME TELL YOU, FRIEND, WE’VE GOT:
An absolutely golden 80′s soundtrack that is atmospheric, consistently used at pitch-perfect moments, and which has been preserved in its entirety without any licensing issues
A guest cast list that includes a ton of super fucking cool genre actors, musicians, poets, and other assorted famous people playing weird, fun roles (James Hong! Earth Kitt! Pam Grier! Frank Zappa! James Brown! ...G. Gordon Liddy!?) AND many of the future stars of the 90′s before they were famous (Bruce Willis! Julia Roberts! Liam Neeson! Helena Bonham Carter!)
Sonny has an actual pet alligator named Elvis. He lives on his boat and sometimes Sonny has to take him to the vet
Jai Alai
Rico is a vegetarian, which feels like a difficult thing to be in Miami in the 80′s
Izzy. Just. Izzy. The most perfect, most ridiculous, rat-bastard con man and wannabe poet, Izzy.
Episodes directed by both Starsky and Hutch
Sonny’s pathological need to put things in his mouth
Whatever is happening here:
Tumblr media
I watch your face carefully for signs of acquiescence, but all the frothing at the mouth I’ve been doing has made it a bit hard to see through the foam. I assume you are convinced and hand you a seventh cafecito. You have not drank the fifth or the sixth. I will drink them when you leave, that’s fine.
MY JOB HERE IS DONE, I announce.
You ask me to elaborate on the whole “not copaganda” thing, trying to grab me by the candy-striped suspenders.
I can’t totally elaborate on that without spoiling a bunch of the show, but suffice to say: ultimately, Vice is about how you can’t change corrupt systems from the inside, that the police serve the rich and powerful, the function of vice cops is basically to create the illusion of order while letting the government quietly destabilize the countries the drugs are originally coming from, and that anyone who tries to be a “good cop” ends up eaten by the system, corrupt, or dead.
There’s some backpedaling on this in the middle of the series with the whole Dick Wolf thing (that man loves his fucking cops), and not every episode is totally consistent with its messaging, but season five definitely doubles down on “this is actually a bad system that really can’t be fixed.”
The show isn’t perfect (I mean. it’s still a cop show from the 80′s)-- it’s a product of its time, for better or for worse. But Miami Vice is really damn good. It’ll make your heart hurt in the best way possible. You will want, desperately, for Sonny to figure out that he’s worth something more than his career as a police officer. You’ll come out of it with a lot of feelings about Phil Collins. I think anyone who likes a good story about people has the potential to really fall in love with Vice-- I’ll admit I literally started watching it as a joke, and realized pretty quickly that everything I thought I knew about the show was wrong.
Satisfied with my answers, you try to leave.
I hit you with a plate of cocaine.

Holiday Huntlow?? Halloween or Christmas/winter
Yo. Omg I only have a few more days to imagine what could be before we finally have some answers. Here’s some Halloween Huntlow based on the newest promo. It’s pointless but I think it’s cute.
———
“What’s Hunter been up to? He’s been locked in the basement for hours.” Luz wondered aloud as the rest of the group sat around the kitchen table finishing breakfast.
“Ever since you told us about Halloween he’s been working on his costume,” said Gus, shaking his head endearingly. “When we’re not doing research, we’ve been watching this amazing documentary called Space Trek and-.”
“It’s not a documentary, I just need you to know that.” Luz interjected quickly.
“-and since you said that the tradition of dressing up has evolved beyond demon realm stereotypes, he wants to dress up as his favorite character.”
“Oh, okay it’s good he has a creative outlet,” said Amity, sipping her tea. “But Luz, didn’t you say that show was for ner-.”
Willow nudged gently her side which told Amity this was probably a comment not meant to be shared.
“So, are you going as someone from the show too, Gus?” Willow asked brightly.
“Oh yeah!” He beamed. “But I’ve got a special charm set with a costume. I offered to make one for Hunter but he seemed really excited to make it himself.”
“Who is he being?” Asked Willow who had watched a few episodes with the boys and had a basic idea of the show. She was nowhere near the level Gus and Hunter were, the two spending practically every free moment watching or discussing the program.
“He wants to keep it a surprise buuuut I bet he’d tell a certain someone if they asked.” Gus sang as he gave Willow a wink but she simply rolled her eyes.
———
Willow knocked on the basement door and waited for Hunter to invite her in.
“Hey!” She said cheerfully, ducking her head down to see him. “I brought cha some breakfast!”
“Ow! Thank you, Captain!” Hunter exclaimed.
“You okay there?” She laughed as she descended the stairs and set his plate on the end table.
“Oh yeah, I’m getting better at sewing but I still manage to stab myself every so often,” he chuckled, shaking out his hand. “But I’m almost done! I’ve gotta have it ready for tonight; it’s gonna be perfect!”
“I’m glad you’re so excited,” Willow smiled as she sat on the couch. “Lemme see if I can guess who you’re gonna be.” She turned her attention to the TV, Hunter was rewatching his favorite season while he worked, citing the source to make sure his creation was accurate. “Oh! Is it the guy in the yellow shirt?”
“Good eye! Yeah, that’s Filton,” said Hunter. “He’s a cyborg, which is part machine and part human and he’s got the best memory and he can fix anything and he’s the technician. He’s my favorite; he’s logical and efficient and he’s funny and awesome.”
“He sounds a lot like you.”
“Yeah, well...” Hunter blushed as he confined to stitch. “I don’t know about that. But I think I found the right shade for the shirt to do the character justice. The costumes in the store had too many inaccuracies. They have the planet on the wrong side, which in the show is a major infraction so I’m sewing my own on.”
“I see. Oh, who’s that?” Willow asked pointing to the screen as a new character entered the scene. She wore a long sleeved green dress with black stockings and matching long boots. She wore her long black hair down, with several Golden star clips decorating her head to keep it out of her eyes. Her face was adorned by matching green lines that went vertically across both eyes and made her seem intimidating and reminded Willow of flyer derby.
“Hmm? Oh! That’s Estrella.” Hunter explained. “Oh she’s awesome. She just became captain of the ship. No one on her planet though she could do it so she joined the team as part of the med division but then they got caught in a meteor storm and she lead the team through it and also fought space pirates.”
“A captain, Huh? Well, she sounds awesome,” said Willow getting more comfortable on the couch and becoming invested in the episode.
“Oh, she is!” Hunter exclaimed. “I thought she’d be your favorite, she reminds me a lot of you.”
“Really? Well then she must be the best character.” said Willow as she watched Estrella jump into the air kick an attacker in the face. Willow admired her technique. “Would it be okay if I watched with you for little bit? Unless you need to focus, I don’t want it distract you if you need-.”
“Oh no, please stay!” said Hunter. “Let me know if you have any questions. But no peeking at my costume. I want you to see it when it’s done and perfect.”
“Deal,” said Willow, who was too involved in the show to put her attention anywhere else.
———
Hunter walked into the kitchen to reveal his finished product with a dramatic flourish, holding his homemade accessories with pride.
“Reporting from the Gamma Quadrant and representing planet Quiox, Lieutenant Filton reporting for duty!” He announced as he shot fake lasers from his eye just as Filton did on the show.
“Woah dude! You look awesome!” said Gus as he and Hunter did their usual handshake.
“Thanks! Why aren’t you ready yet?”
“I’ve got my charm all ready, no rush,” he said, gesturing to his accessory. “But ya know, speaking of Filton, I noticed that on the box set for the next season-.”
Hunter covered his ears. “La la la la no spoilers!”
“Okay fine,” laughed Gus. Despite the show having been out for years in the is realm, it was totally new to them and Hunter refused to have any part of it spoiled. Gus turned his attention behind Hunter and a large smile graced his face. “Woah, Willow! I didn’t know you were dressing up too!”
“Oh it’s just something I threw together,” she said.
Hunter turned to greet her but was quickly made speechless by her appearance. It wasn’t unusual for the sight of her to leave him at a loss for words, but she had outdone herself now. “Wait... are you...?”
“I had a dress that reminded me of Estrella’s and Luz lent me some hair clips so I thought it would be cool if we had matching costumes,” explained Willow, gesturing to her outfit. The dress was nearly a perfect replicant by itself but she had added a belt and altered the sleeves to make the look complete. “I hope that’s okay, I know it’s really more of your and Gus’ thing-.”
“No, not at all! I mean, it is! I mean... you look amazing, Captain.” Hunter could barely catch his breath. He had seen Willow with her hair down before, but never so purposeful and planned. For having only been introduced to the character that morning, she had put true effort in recreating her likeness. “You even painted your face! Oh, oh! I have an extra space fleet patch you can wear! Let me go down and get it!”
Hunter quickly dashed down the stairs and Willow could not have more thrilled with his reaction.
“So uh, what made you pick Estrella, Willow?” Gus asked, crossing his arms and offering her a knowing smirk.
“Oh, well Hunter was telling me about her and we watched some episodes and I just really like her character,” she replied. “Why? Oh no, she doesn’t turn evil or die or something does she?”
“No, but I’m guessing you didn’t get to episode 87 did you?”
“No, I think we stopped a few before that, why?”
“Ask Hunter about it,” smirked Gus. “It’s like his favorite episode.”
“Aw! I didn’t know you guys were doing a couple’s costume too!” Gushed Luz as she and Amity came down the stairs, dressed and Azura and Hecate to no one’s surprise.
“Huh?” said Willow, confused.
“Hunter is dressing as Filton, right?”
“Yeah.”
“Well, I’m nowhere near as into Space Trek as my dad was, but it’s a well known pop culture fact that Estrella and Filton are like one of the most famous love stories of all time.”
“Oh, I... hadn’t gotten that far yet,” said Willow, now enjoying Hunter’s reaction even more upon reflection. “Is that what happens in episode 87?”
“Well, that’s when it starts,” explained Gus. “That’s the episode where Filton gets a system upgrade that makes him realize he’s in love with the Captain. Hunter is like obsessed with them, I’m pretty sure he draws pictures of them before bed.”
“Really? He didn’t mention that,” Willow blushed, easily imagining Hunter hunched over a notebook agonizing over the perfecting the shading of Filton’s mechanical eye.
“He probably didn’t wanna spoil it for you,” shrugged Gus. “We also haven’t found out if they get together yet, there’s a lot of tension and build up and he still has to tell her that he got his robot parts from an evil robot that used to fight the alliance and-.”
“Gus! Spoilers!” Willow exclaimed, covering her ears.
“I’m sorry,” laughed Gus. “Anyway, it’s one of those episodes where everyone loses their memory at the end so like it’s not technically canon but it also is? I think it’s annoying, but it’s Hunter’s favorite episode. I think I’ll let you two watch that one alone.”
“Why?”
“Because they kiss in that one.”
“Oh, I see,” said Willow as she heard Hunter’s footsteps running back up the basement stairs. “Do you think he’s okay with me dressing like her then? I don’t want him to be uncomfortable if people assume-.”
“I found it!” Hunter announced as he eagerly ran over to Willow. “I can sew it onto your sweater if you want, it won’t take very long!”
“I think he’s fine with it,” whispered Gus to Willow as she removed her sweater to hand to Hunter who quickly began working.
“Willow! Can you take mine and Luz’s picture by her Azura poster?” Amity called from the next room. Willow picked up her camera and headed over, snapping dozens of pictures of the pair re-enacting the book covers and just being extremely cheesy.
During their photo session, Hunter finished sewing on Willow’s patch and admired his work with pride. He was so excited to have something to share with the Captain and he couldn’t wait to discuss his theories and fun facts with her.
“So, are you guys gonna be in character all night?” asked Gus as he watched Hunter fix some buttons on Willow’s sweater while he had the kit out.
“Well, I certainly don’t intend to dishonor Filton’s name by acting against his moral code,” said Hunter far too seriously. “Luckily, we’re both highly efficient and logical.”
“Yeah, and luckily you’re both in love with the Captain too huh?”
“Yeah and- that’s not funny,” said Hunter, giving Gus a stern look.
“Hey, I’m just staying in character,” said Gus, activating his charm to change into his costume. “Morrok is the handsome comic relief who tells it like it is. I gotta tell it like it is.”
“Thanks Willow!” Luz beamed as she and Amity adored their poloroids, struggling to pick a favorite. “These are all amazing! Want me to take a picture of you, Hunter, and Gus?”
“Oh, that would be great thanks!” said Willow, handing her camera to Luz and ducking back into the living room to grab the boys. Hunter helped Willow slip her sweater back on and she complimented his craftsmanship which made him blush. The three gathered in front of the entrance, with Hunter making sure they were placed and posed perfectly to ensure the most accurate photos possible.
“Okay, I think we should get on of you guys recreating the scene from when they went to Cyran,” said Gus.
“Oh! Yes!” agreed Luz with enthusiasm. “That’s iconic!”
“I don’t think we got that far,” admitted Willow, wondering if it was a reference to episode 87. “Um, what do we have to do?”
“Oh, I don’t think the Captain wants to do that,” said Hunter, nervously. “It’s probably too silly and we should leave soon-.”
“Here, I’ll show you,” said Luz to Willow as she quickly searched the poster on her phone and showed it to her. Willow grinned.
“Oh yeah, we can totally do that.” she said.
“Really?” Said Hunter, trying to hide how thrilled he was. Willow nodded as Gus ran up to them and began putting them into place.
“Okay, Willow you stand... here,” said Gus, directing Willow into the light. “And Hunter, you go on her left and put your arms around her shoulders like she’s carrying you out of the rock monsters clutches. And Willow, put your hand around his waist and pull him closer, yeah just like that! And put your other hand in the air like your summoning the ship’s beam! Perfect! Hold that! Hunter, why is your face so red?”
“Aw so cute!” Luz squealed, prolonging hitting the button to make the moment last longer.
“Oh! Gus, can you make an illusion that’ll make it look like we’re being beamed up to the ship?” Willow asked and Hunter gasped at her brilliance, his eyes widening at how epic the picture would look.
“On it!” he said as he summoned the blue light above them. Willow did a perfect recreation of the poster, looking up at the sky with determination and fearlessness. Beside her, Hunter perfectly re-enacted Filton’s iconic love struck look without even trying.
“Maybe next Halloween we can recreate a scene from episode 87.” Willow whispered as Luz snapped the last photo, Hunter looked as though he was going to burst into flames as Willow managed to remain composed. As flustered as he was, he momentarily snapped out of it as he fully processed her words.
“Gus! I told you not to spoil it for her!”

Power Paige - SRBA Style
Tumblr media
And here she is—Power Paige, the recent addition to the Super Readers!
As soon as I saw her design in Comic Book Adventures, I knew I had to draw her. She’s so stinking adorable! And I got to thinking, as I drew her, what would she look like in the SRBA ‘verse? This is one of the ideas I had, although a few things got changed later on.
I played around with her cape a bit to make it more flowy. Originally, I was going to make it similar to Super Why’s Azure Tempest form in that it had a cool design on the end of it, namely stars or hearts. But alas, I didn’t have the right tools at the time—I received some awesome illustration markers as a belated birthday gift, and though her skin color turned out perfectly, I had a bit more trouble working with her outfit and accent colors, since I used markers for the whole picture. But she still turned out super cool regardless! And if you’re wondering if the pose looks familiar, I challenged myself to use one of Mario’s promo arts from the original Super Mario Galaxy as a reference. In reference to that, I was also gonna have some stars or hearts flying around her, but it was enough just getting the color scheme right. Ah, well. I’ll do that the next time I draw her. That might be after I finally get around to working on Alpha Pig’s Second Style and posting it!
Not sure what powers she’d have in SRBA yet, since I have yet to decide when she’ll appear, but I can kinda see her being kinda like a Sailor Venus-like character, where she’s got powers with light and can fight physically. I already said that she’s not gonna be a sword character, but I’m not sure what other weapon she should have. Perhaps you guys have some ideas in the comments!
I promise after this, I’ll be working on the Blazin’ Trails characters! I’m cleaning up Roxie’s lineart as we speak, and I hope to have her done by the end of the week. Sal will take a bit of time, in no part due to all those scales. But hey, if you want something done right, you gotta take your time!
I hope you like this!
