I was working to invent miniature trampolines for jumping spiders, because jumping spiders like jumping, so I wanted to help them jump higher.

Headcanons of Peter B. Parker, Miguel, The Spot, and Hobie have a crush on an oblivious reader?
Crushing on an Oblivious Reader
Fandom: Spiderverse
Character(s): Hobie, Peter B. Parker, Miguel, The Spot
Type of Request: Headcanons
Note(s): God I love the idea of these specific people having a crush on an oblivious reader because I feel like it's just chaos no matter where you look. All of them are v dramatic for different reasons tho
Tumblr media
Hobie
Oh he finds your oblivious to be very amusing. At first, he thought you were ignoring his advances to spite him for some reason (which he'd respect it). But then he just realizes that you don't get it.
Honestly, not too surprising you don't pick up on his advances. He doesn't do things the typical way. Flowers? Chocolates? Like hell he'd contribute to capitalism to flirt with you. He also doesn't really flirt with you with the standard "your eyes are pretty" "you look cute today" yeah no. It's definitely "hey, let's go to this protest and shout ACAB at any cops that walk by"
The most "romantic" (he doesn't believe in romance) thing he does is play his guitar for you. Even then it's lots of loud noises but he throws all of his emotions into it so that's something.
Miguel
Considering he doesn't even try to make it obvious that he likes you, it's no wonder you haven't realized. Hardly anyone knows that he's even "flirting" with you (making you 'employee of the month' isn't flirting, it does make Lego Spider-Man suspicious tho).
He's nicer to you than others, but that's something that even he is oblivious to and if Lyla or Peter mentions it then he denies as a defense mechanism. You deny it because you really don't see it.
The funny thing is, Lyla has gone behind his back to send you cute messages and stuff from his email but even those you don't get (and he doesn't know she does it) so now she's getting frustrated on his behalf.
Peter
He is gradually going insane with how you're not picking up on his advances. He's given you flowers, chocolates, he's said really dumb dad jokes to leave a smile on your face. But if anyone mentions your relationship it's always, "Yeah he's a good friend!" and he dies inside.
Has gone to Miles and Gwen for help. He can't believe he resorted to asking teenagers for help hitting on you and he can't believe he's trying to follow their ideas. (he mentioned looking up "how to flirt" and when the word "thicc" left his mouth, it caused an uproar)
Honestly wanted to get the sweatpants out and brood because maybe if he looks like a sad hobo then you'll give him attention. His doctor told him he'd die without your attention so please notice him before he goes bald.
Spot
Does not know how to flirt so your obliviousness is both understandable and killing him because he's trying. He's trying so hard and it's so pathetic. Especially because when he fails with his flirts, the self-consciousness kicks in and then he's just sad.
His words are stutters, he has tried to steal you flowers only for one of his spots to grab a cactus instead (which he ended up pricking himself with and now needs tweezers). Wanted to win you a teddy bear at a carnival cause that's cute, right? But he can't find a damn dimension with a carnival! (unless you count the spider society cause they're a whole circus)
Would probably just end up so dejected because he's tried so hard and has finally chalked it up to you not getting his advances because you don't want to. Why would you even like someone covered in spots like him? You trying to comfort him doesn't really help either. Maybe he'll sadly confess to you, maybe he'll die alone, who knows at this point.

My favorite Conduit Of The Horrors 🩵
Rambles and art stuff under the cut
I love thinking about the primary trio post-nmpd, and there have been some really cool headcanons floating around, and long story short I rewatched Yellow Jacket and I have some ideas in the works. I don't know if this is post-Yellow Jacket or in the middle of it or what, I'm not actually thinking that deep about it I'm just having fun lol. For reasons I needed to have a finalized design for Hannah soooo-
I managed to seriously screw myself over by deciding to try and draw 2 characters I adore that are played by four extremely different looking actors. It was frustrating, but interesting to try and pick out what I thought the most important features of each version was.
So like, for BF Hannah I just used Kendall Nicole as the reference, easy peasy. But aging her up was a bit of a juggle. Eventually I ended up kind of grafting Lauren's expressions onto her face shape, which I also referenced Angela Giarratana for. Just to get that familial connection in there. It really helps that they both have that distinct chiseled chin, it's really fun to draw and fairly easy to replicate. (Side note, Lauren has an incredible ability to suddenly look like a deer in the headlights out of nowhere. The nervous energy that rang through her performance as Hannah was amazing, and I couldn't get over how damn expressive her eyes were)
I was gonna have a more detailed drawing of Ethan in there, because I absolutely love their relationship, but I chickened out. I ended up basically just drawing Joey's version with slightly shorter hair that is longer on one side, like a half-mullet thing. This is partially to try and synthesize the two versions in my head aesthetically, but mostly it's to differentiate him from Pete. Pete is a little difficult too, I actually really like how Nick Lang played him and wanted to incorporate some features from there, but I decided to save it for another day because I was giving myself a headache. Honestly a lot of the stuff is just hair texture, cause one of the most defining traits for their designs in my head was the way their curly hair was styled. But at the same time Joey's current haircut is damn iconic and I love being able to swing it around for the drama Ghibli-style

Jason was going through the Tower, looking for Tim, and all was going well-until he found Tim's Secret Room.
"What the fuck," Jason whispered, inching back out of the room, "What the fuck. What the fuck? What the-what in the fuck-"
"You're not supposed to be here," a quiet voice said behind him.
Directly behind him.
Jason spun around and staggered further into the room as he did so, losing his footing and falling on a knee.
Timothy Jackson Drake, in all his Robin regalia, stood stock still in the entrance.
Jason slowly stood up, hands out.
"Look, I think we may have jumped the gun-"
"No one is allowed in this room, Red Hood," the little Robin said, voice even and calm and quiet; all the things that no one who was in the stupid hell room should be.
Jason swallowed, tensing and watching as the kid held up a hand with a remote in it.
"Don't." Jason whispered, although the voice modulator distorted it.
"No one, Red Hood."
A button was pushed.
With a hiss, all of the lids to the enclosures opened.
The enclosures that hosted nothing but spiders.
What the breaking point was, though, was when Jason felt something rather large plop down on his shoulder.
Then another. And another, and another.
Then they started crawling under his jacket.
Jason felt no shame in the scream that tore itself from his lips as he stumbled past Tim and ran.
~~~~~~
"....That was a little fucked up, Baby Bird. Just want you to know." Nightwing's voice sounded a little faint through the comm.
Tim scoffed, collapsing the bo staff and getting to work on trying to hunt down and place the spiders in their proper enclosures.
"No, what's fucked up is that I've probably lost a significant sum of money by doing this," he bitched, reaching down to collect some of the more docile ones and close the lids to the ones that hadn't tried to run.
"Spider breeding is so weird though, Tim."
"It's a way to pass time is what it is. Plus, they're cute."

I have been working on an Angel Dust redesign/rework for a bit but I've sort of stalled at adapting his story while being respectful. When I fully figure them out, I'll make a more formal post with more final art.
I really love arthropods, especially chelicerates which are what spiders/scorpions/horseshoe crabs are. I had a whole college report on arthropods so I'm gonna get a bit rambly about them. First of all, spider butt is called a thorax and Angel's prob needs some resizing her to make everything more balanced. I wanted to give them 8 legs and have their arms represent pediplaps, the little "hands" spiders have. Then the actual fangs of a spider (called chelicerae) are on the sides of Angel's head. The eyes have no anatomical basis, but having 2 be larger than the others is a jumping spider thing, which is the kinda fuzzy spider I imagine Angel is supposed to represent. Anyway, Angel is very rarely in full drider form, usually just having 2 legs present.
I am considering retooling Angel's story completely so that it is about the importance of engaging with bdsm & fantasies in a safe way, (Using safe words, not using things that could actually harm your partner, aftercare). Angel would start out loving working at Val's because he gets to engage in a lot of fantasies he has and get paid for it... but he gets advertised as "no limits" and he prides himself on not using safe words. His arc would involve realizing he can still engage with these fantasies while being safe & cared for as he breaks away from Val. Verity (Hellbound Hostel's Vaggie) would also have a bit of an arc in tandem with Angel where she has to reckon with sex just being a part of being human and shouldn't be considered a sin on it's own.
I wouldn't be trying to write something that makes a statement on sex work, but more of a message on safe sex over preaching abstinence... but I'm not sure I'm really experienced enough to tackle that? Please let me know if you have thoughts or criticisms over any of this.

Spectember/Spectober 2023 #11: A Large Spider
An anonymous submission requested a "spider the size of a coconut crab":
Tumblr media
Ceratohispidus aspectus is a distant descendant of jumping spiders living on an Aotearoa-like landmass, isolated with no mammalian predators.
This particular lineage is notable for both their extreme gigantism (with their larger size and weight causing them to lose the ability to jump) and for having taken up herbivory in a similar manner to one modern species. Most of these big plant-eating spiders are around the size of wētāpunga, and occupy a similar ecological niche, but Ceratohispidus is the largest of them by far – rivalling the modern coconut crab with a body length of up to 40cm (~1'4") and a legspan of almost 1m (~3'3").
After reaching sexual maturity at 5-10 years old, adults grow very slowly, molting only once every year or two and taking several decades to actually get anywhere close to their maximum size.
Ceratohispidus' thick legs end in hoof-like claws, and it selectively browses on vegetation by snipping off pieces with its pincer-like palps. A gizzard-like structure in its digestive system helps to grind up fibrous plant material with small gastroliths, and its wide abdomen houses both large book lungs and a tracheal system with air sacs that can contract and expand to provide a small amount of active ventilation.
While the "horns" and spikes ornamenting its body may provide some defense from the few avian and reptilian predators in its habitat, they're mainly used as part of highly elaborate visual displays between individuals.

my Valentine’s Day love letter is for chytridiomycota :D the grandmother of every single fungi on the planet, the chytridiomycota is somehow unlike any other fungus in varying ways
such as its environment. chytridiomycota are largely aquatic,yet they’re one of the most common land parasites :D on the same topic, their spores are flagellated in order to literally swim through the water, which is unique almost entirely to them.
Chytrids are also one of the only fungi that reproduce oogamously relating them closer to LAND ANIMALS !!!! Than any aquatic creature or fungi.
This makes me believe that they actually had a hand in the creation of humans during evolution, since fungus and human genomes are so incredibly close to each other. It’s one of the most simple fungi but it’s so incredible to me :D 🖤🖤🖤

hi!! may I please request PDA headcanons for peter b, miguel, and spot? like, how they react to it, would they initiate it, etc. thank you so much and i hope you're in good health!
General Reactions to PDA
Fandom: Spiderverse
Character(s): Peter B. Parker, Miguel O'hara, Spot
Type of Request: Headcanons
Note(s): First Spiderverse request!! I'm doing good and I hope you're doing alright too, anon!!
Tumblr media
Miguel
Does not initiate physical contact at all. He thinks about it then immediately forces those thoughts out of his mind. Just doesn't think he deserves to be able to hold you or give you kisses. He's afraid of getting that close to you.
But then you brush your hand against his, you kiss his cheek, and he sucks in a breath of air because he never expects it. There are immediate glares sent to everyone in the room that just saw you giving him affection because they better not say a damn thing.
Much prefers private affection than public affection. In private, he's a lot more incline to brush his hand against yours or hook his pinky with yours. Just something small to ground himself and remind him that he does deserve happiness.
Peter
Absolutely initiates. Lots of pulling you into a side hug or kissing your cheek. If you and him are having an argument in front of people, then he'll reach over and boop your nose or pinch your cheek as a way to distract you.
He hears the overdramatic gagging sound effects some of the kids make and he rolls his eyes at them and starts making his own overdramatic kissing sounds at you to get back at them. Absolutely leaves the wettest kisses on your cheek to mess with you too.
While in public his affection is more playful and teasing, in private he's more of a fan of holding you close to him and enjoying the quiet.
Spot
Wants to initiate physical contact and he's tried, only to accidentally cause your hand to go through his back and out his ankle due to his ability.
He does like affection. He can't have cuddles or hugs or kisses too often just because of his ability and so he really enjoys affection when he can get it. So, it'll take adjusting and patience, but he savors any kisses you manage to give to the sides of his face or hands.
Idk what kind of PDA he'd be given since if he's in public then he's mostly ridiculed or people go, "Oh great, another super powered freak". Like if he does have some kind of disguise on to be with you in public then he'll gladly engage with PDA, but most of it is private.
