Everyone in the world had to compete in an American Ninja Warrior course and anyone who fell off was sent immediately to Hell.

Chenford + Tim sees Lucy on a date and turns up at her door.
Lucy doesn't expect Tim to be sitting outside her door when she gets home.
She's not upset about it, exactly, but she doesn't expect it either.
He doesn't notice her right away, so she gives herself a moment to take him in – if she's dealing with a certain type of Tim, she wants to know ahead of time.
He's wearing a pair of jeans with a rip at the cuff that she knows is from getting snagged on a chain-link fence when they'd been walking back to their hotel after a night out in San Antonio, Tim running ahead and trying to rile her up and make her feel better after fucking up in the preliminaries.
For the record: she'd made it through, but by the skin of her teeth after bombing her second-to-last obstacle.
Tim's head is tipped back against the wall, his eyes closed, and the sharp line of his jaw tracing down to the tension in his neck makes Lucy frown.
He looks upset, which she doesn't love.
"Hey," she calls out as she makes her way down the hall, and Tim snaps his head up, raising his brows. "You looking for somebody?"
He offers up a smile and she can feel the relief in it. "Hey," he hops up to his feet, his limbs long, working quickly. "No, no way," he frowns, fake, not reaching his eyes which are still very much smiling back at her. "Just happened to be in the area."
"And, what," she pulls her phone from her back pocket, waving it around as she reaches him, "you couldn't call and see if I was around before I dropped in?"
"I," he scratches at the back of his neck and she squints up at him. "I mean, I figured-,"
"Why are you nervous right now?" Lucy laughs, shoving at his arm before digging through her bag for her keys. Tim mumbles something unintelligible and she unlocks her door, pushing it open and leaning against the frame to block him from following her in. "What's up?"
Tim slides his hands into his pockets, shrugging. "Nothing, nothing," he taps her shin with his foot. "What were you up to?"
"Oh," she waves her hand, "nothing. I mean, you saw me this morning, but after," she shrugs, "I ran errands, I went on a bad date, I grabbed a bottle of wine," she tugs the wine bottle from the top of her bag so he can see it. "You've just...been waiting for me?"
"I only got here," he squints around, then glances down at his watch, "half hour ago, or so. Figured you'd turn up at some point."
"Oh, what," she raises her brows, smirking up at him, "you don't think I'm capable of staying out all night, Tim?"
He snorts, rolling his eyes. "You have training at 5:45," Lucy groans as he continues, "I figured you were a sure thing for sleeping in your own bed."
She huffs, pushing the door open wider and leading Tim into her kitchen. She pulls the bottle of wine out of her bag and puts it on the counter, watching as Tim locks the door and kicks off his shoes. "Besides," he carries on, pulling two wine glasses down from one of her high shelves, "you looked pretty bored on that date, figured you'd need some quality entertainment by the time you got home."
Lucy freezes, her hand still digging into one of her kitchen drawers to pull out her corkscrew. She looks over her shoulder, squinting at him. She thought she'd seen a Tim-looking guy walk by the patio she'd been seated on with her date, John, but she'd shrugged it off and gone back to talking. John had been sweet, had asked her to dinner after they'd gotten to know each other during his first few training sessions at her gym, but he was definitely more of a friend than a flirtation.
Besides, she had Tim if she felt the need to flirt.
She glares at him, turning on her heel and pursing her lips as she crosses her arms over her chest. "What were you doing, huh? Spying on me?"
He smirks, shrugging. "I was going to the pet store across the way for Kojo stuff," he offers. "I saw you and they were finishing up a fresh batch of those peanut butter treats he liked, so...I might've grabbed a coffee, scoped it out."
Lucy scoffs, squinting at him. "Spy," she points, shaking her head. "A dirty rotten scoundrel of a spy, Tim, oh my god."
He laughs, his neck going a bit red, and Lucy grabs the corkscrew out of the drawer, bumping it shut with her thigh before making her way over to him. "I'm just saying, you looked bored. Sad, even," he holds up a hand in innocence. "I figured you'd need...reinforcements, or something. I ordered Thai when I got here, should be here soon."
She rolls her eyes, giving him another faux-huff. She's not actually annoyed – she'd planned to call him after pouring herself a glass, anyway – but she thinks he should have to grovel a little. "I had a great time, thank you," she works the corkscrew into the bottle, ignoring the fact that she can feel Tim moving closer.
"You said it was bad," his voice is low, she can feel his breath on her ear. "Don't lie, now, Lucy."
She shivers, shutting her eyes but making sure her hands don't stop moving. "I'm not lying," she mutters. "Back off."
Tim chuckles and she swallows hard, annoyed because this is almost always what proximity to his fucking body does to her and she can't stand it. Whether he's adjusting her grip on the bars while they're training or he's cornering her in her kitchen about some dumb shit he did, he's annoyingly, agonizingly hot. "John's like fifty, you know that right?"
She elbows him in the ribs and Tim groans, but she feels him back away and lets out a laugh. "You're not much off," she smirks over her shoulder. "Now get this open for me, would you? We can talk about how many push-ups you owe me once I've got a full glass of wine in my hand."
Tim rolls his eyes at her, but there's a smile to it that makes her stomach flip as he grabs the corkscrew and gets to work.

Would you write anything with/about Spider-man 2099? 👀
This ask made me scroll back in my blog and go, "Wait did I actually write the entire manifesto on why Miguel is a communist icon because I thought I had refrained from that."
I'm 95% sure that I did, in fact, refrain from explaining why there are only two good superhero media (The Incredible Hulk 1977 and Spider-man 2099) because they are the only two truly socialist superhero media. I must have mentioned that I fucking loved Spider-man 2099 somewhere. Because I fucking do. Miguel is THE character of all time. I love Spider-Man, I love characters who are COMPLETE DICKS, I love guys who just kinda wanna go home and sleep.
I absolutely would write something for him, I fucking love that guy. I haven't had a really solid idea yet, one that would make a story that would get off the ground, but if the stars align then hell yeah. Miguel is the perfect superhero because he never once tries to stop anybody from robbing a bank, committing a crime, disturbing the peace, etc. He will only ever do anything helpful if it fucks over Cyberpunk Dystopia Evil Corp, because he hates them, or if his brother nags him to do something about systematic oppression. Over the course of all of Spider-Man 2099 he stops ONE mugging. Because a cop was mugging a woman. So he could beat up the cop. Character of ALL TIME.
....this isn't a story idea but I was absolutely joking about hypothetically:
imagining one of those tepid-ass mcu spider-man fanfic where there's a class field trip to stark industies or something and peter's outed as Tony Stark's Baby Son Boy, of which there are literally 500 and every one is exactly the same I don't read mcu peter fanfic anyway
tropey fic where peter's doing that tropey hijinky runs away from crowd of friends to hide in a broom closet and preserve his secret identity
except he just opens the door to an abandoned wet lab to see miguel electrocuting a rat or something
peter is fucking convinced dr ohara is a mad scientist stealing starktech genetic secrets. tony doesn't listen because he thinks peters feelings are just hurt after miguel called him the saltine cracker of nepotism. miguel is, of course, stealing starktech time travel technology. meanwhile a guy in a black spider suit is firebombing the NYPD
miguel assumes that the richer and more important you are, the more evil you are. faced with involuntary time travel, he is operating under his standard MO of finding the most evil corporation in the tristate area and looking them up on glassdoor. working under this assumption, miguel assumes itll be too much work to go ahead and kill tony stark in the name of the proletariat but he does slowly sabotage their entire genetics division.
MJ threatens to break up with Peter if he tries to stop the NYPD from being firebombed

Tristan is the type of person to watch American Ninja Warrior and think, “These chumps got nothing on me”, while also sobbing at every sad backstory each participant has.

I obsessively watched American Ninja Warrior growing up. It was my favorite sport, I never missed an episode, and I knew everything about it. One of the reasons I loved it so much as a little girl was that it was extremely empowering- there was no gender segregation (or any segregation!) in the sport. Men & women, disabled & able-bodied people, all competed on the same course and ended up on the same leader-boards. It was co-ed. It did take 5 years until a woman completed a course and made it it to the nationals, and Kacy Catanzaro was incredible for it.
Over time, I realized I'm trans and loved the sport more since it didn't care what gender I was, and, as the years went on, more and more women succeeded at the sport. There were still very few women making it far though, so they added an extra leader-board. If 5 women didn't make it into the top 30 competitors in the qualifiers, then the top 5 women would move on and get another shot. The extra opportunity helped to close the gap, and it seemed like at the rate things were going, they wouldn't need the bonus top 5 women leader-board, since we started to get 4-7 women qualifying in the top 30 regularly.
The sport was proving what we knew, that women are just as strong as, if not stronger than, so many men. They were top athletes, competing at the same athletic level as men and often doing better than a lot of men, knocking them out from competition. In the kids league of the show that they started, girls and boys race against each other all the time! This was a co-ed sport, a sport that started in the 00's with the ethos of 'anyone can try on the same field, athlete or average joe, disabled or able-bodied, any gender.'
I stopped watching for a few years and forgot about this sport that I loved until a couple of days ago. I've been catching up on the re-runs of everything I missed and got caught back up to this year's competition. They changed the rules. American Ninja Warrior is no longer a co-ed sport. Yes, everyone still competes on the same course and has the same time constraints, but women and men are split up in the leader-boards. It's now just the top 12 men and top 4 women that get to move on. When competitors race each other in the second round, those races are gender segregated.
And it's obvious why this change happened. All the trans panic means now it's totally normal to say that women and men shouldn't compete on the same playing field because obviously men are going to outperform women. So they had to separate the races by gender and have a consistent amount of men and women for that separation to happen. But to then limit the amount of women to 3 times less than the amount of men that get through? That's just outrageous.
This was a sport so deeply empowering to me both as a little girl before I came out, and as a trans person after I did, because it's something I always could have competed in and have a place in. Because they're so scared of trans people and gender variance they take what was once a super powerful and progressive co-ed sport, something that was a model for how more sports could be, and changed it into something else. I'm just really sad about it.

It's been 6 years since I lost my grandpa, and I thought it'd be nice to draw him. He was funny, kind, and loved his family (+sports) so much. I miss him a little more with every day, but I'm glad I got to have the time I did. I'm not religious myself but I like to believe he's in heaven now looking down at me and feeling proud, proud of my art skills now, proud of how much sign I know now, proud of how far I've made it. I love you Grandpa Mike, I'm glad I got to have you as my grandpa

This is every American Ninja Warrior episode:
*Some white guy walks out*
Matt: Next up is Bobert Bobbinson, who goes by the name of “The Brussels-Sprout Ninja.”
*Cut to interview*
Bob: I was trained by the best of the best: Jimbo Johnson. I’ve been training all year after my failure last year and I’ve found eating Brussels sprouts really help.
*Sad music starts playing*
Bob: As a kid I didn’t like Brussels sprouts. And my mom was a druggie. I’m going to do this for her.
*Cuts back to the course*
Akbar: Bobert’s mother has recovered and is in the audience cheering for her son. Let’s see how he does.
*Falls on second obstacle*

I'm attempting to do the impossible for me, folks. I'm trying to get into sports.
But not into football, oh no. Not the sport that's basically religion down here. That would be way too easy. Imma be quirky a lil bastard and try watching hockey because that's one of the only sports that looks even remotely interesting. And to my knowledge we have only two major hockey teams in the entire state lmao.

still havent seen atsv (working on it!) but its so funny to me that part of the primary conflict is that miguel thinks that certain fundamental tragedies in a spiders life are necessary to The Canon resulting in him trying to stop miles from preventing his fathers death bc. you KNOW miguel (has two separate awful dads) is also like. unable to relate to someone who doesnt want his dad megadead
