You've seen it once before on @crunchyluigi, but I'm still proud of this design, and just trying to get people to not forget about him.

Maybe I should really try and draw him again. . .

[idontknowreallywhy]

Got myself in a cycle of stress editing / rewriting particular piece which will not go the way I want. So I abandoned it for now and challenged myself to just write a one-off scene that has lived in my head for a long time with no going back and editing or adjusting but just a linear splurge of words and silliness.

It’s entirely ridiculous but here it is anyway (with an affectionate nudge to @crunchyluigi @obeyweegee214 @galaxytransman)

It’s a Secret No-One Knows

6pm on Tracy island and all was quiet as Scott made his way up the stairs into the lounge.

Virgil, Gordon and Alan were still in the air on the way back from a tricky mine rescue in Northern Europe. He was grateful that success had been confirmed on comms as he’d been on the point of ignoring John’s pointed comments about flight hours and heading north.

He’d have been there with them of course if, when the call came in, he and One hadn’t already been plucking panicking, inexperienced climbers off of one of his favourite crags in the Blue Mountains. His nimble ship was always the most suited to such environments and frankly he could have done it in his sleep.

Oh, but it was such a waste of his time and fuel! Enough awful disasters happened around the world every day without people putting themselves into danger because they were more focussed on researching what shots they wanted for their vlog than on the rating of the climb they were undertaking. The names the Aussies had assigned to each route didn’t exactly help - the latest gaggle of idiots had got half way up “Does my Bum Look Big On This?” wearing entirely inappropriate shorts for the weather and got themselves tangled in each others’ safety lines while trying to take selfies from a distinctly unorthodox angle. It had taken every last ounce of self-restraint he had not to accidentally drop their phones into the ravine.

And the next one to use the word ‘gnarly’ was going to experience an Incident with the passenger loading bay door.

Over the ocean.

At Mach 19.

When had young people got so ridiculous?

And when had he stopped being one? He sighed and dragged his hands down his face. Damn, he really was getting old and grumpy.

And probably hangry, now he thought about it. Well that was fixable even if the inexorable march towards irrelevant middle age was not. He made a beeline for the fridge and found himself uninspired by the array of pre-prepared high calorie low effort snacks they usually favoured post mission. He craved something… nutritious…

Ignoring the imagined old-man mockery of the younger brothers who resided in his brain, he pulled out every fresh ingredient they had in stock: Eggs, bacon, sausages, three types of cheese, peppers, spring onions, basil… ah Ha! He knew exactly what this was going to be. A quick rummage in the larder turned up a bag of potatoes and he hefted it over his shoulder, flicking the switch on grandma’s ancient radio as he went past.

Ooh, ‘Happy 90s Hour’ was starting. One of his guilty pleasures as a teenager in the early 50s…

The repetitive peeling and dicing task combined with the irrepressibly cheery pop bangers slowly eased the knot of grouchiness in his chest. By the time he scooped the mountain of potato cubes into the dustbin-lid sized frying pan he was singing along with both halves of the Barbie Girl duet. A pleasing sizzling ensued and he grinned to himself. This was going to be epic. A little prodding with the spatula to cook them evenly then he turned the heat down and did a little slide sideways to fetch the meat and a shuffle and a hop back to add them to the pan.

As John popped up on the kitchen comm, his big brother was too busy volta-ing through the kitchen with a cheese grater to notice. Because you can’t just walk across a room when Ricky Martin is playing. John’s quizzical single eyebrow was rapidly joined by its twin as he spotted the pan on the stove… he cut the connection and leapt into the elevator, sending a message to Virgil to put his proverbial foot down.

Frittata Night was not to be trifled with.

And so it was that all four younger brothers took the elevator up from the hangar together and arrived in a state of some excitement for the culinary experience that awaited them.

As the door opened however Virgil threw out his arms to prevent them piling out. The chatter stopped immediately as they peered round the wall of brother to spy their eldest dancing to and fro at the stove and belting out the words to some ancient pop song:

So hold on to the ones who care

In the end they’ll be the only ones there

When you get old and start losing your hair

Can you tell me who will still caaaaare?

As the chorus dropped so did the jaws of Alan and Gordon for who knew their biggest brother could move his hips like that? And why was he waving the spatula that way? Alan looked wide eyed to John and pointed with a shaking hand as if to ensure his space brother was seeing the same thing he was. John, didn’t acknowledge him, instead staring straight ahead, tapping a finger on the doorframe in time with the beat. Gordon turned to Virgil unable to verbalise beyond “bu.. bu… bu…” only to find his tank of a brother smiling broadly and… his jaw dislocated further… also swaying his hips in time.

Then he was gone.

… And so was John!

Both of them jigging across the floor to join their brother in an honest to goodness dance routine while the three of them sang nonsense words. Alan lost control of his knees and collapsed cross-legged to the floor. Gordon desperately tried to grab his phone to record the moment but fumbled and dropped it down the back of the couch. And then it was over.

And there was frittata.

And if the Tinies were unusually quiet during the meal, the elder three didn’t notice as each treasured the memories of their little dance trio ‘performing’ for their biggest fan. While eating her signature dish.

Fin.

*****

You want the dance routine? Course not… but here is is anyway (Scott starts singing at about 0:40, chorus and excellent hip action kick in at about 0:52)

Edit to add: Weirdly specific note because the precise image is apparently super important to me (clearly been sucked in by the child watching Strictly) and because I forgot there are two types of Volta… this is the move I mean - the samba one (skip to 1:44 of the video and it’s just a few seconds).

Tag game

Three ships:

I'm not really a shipper, I'm very picky about the romance I consume. It's kinda like candy, great in small amounts but if I consume too much of it, I start to feel adverse to it.

• Jeff/Kyrano - Thunderbirds

The convos we've had in the Thunderpride group chat have made me quite like this one, just two sweet old men falling in love and raising their 6 kids together.

• M.A.X/Fritzy - TAG

Those two robots are so cute!! Can robots experience romantic attraction?? I guess so??

Cute cute cute!!

• Fischler/The Mechanic - TAG

More of a crackship which could be romantic or platonic. I love the idea of the mad scientist and his responsible engineer boyfriend.

Fischler's just running around coming up with ideas and inventions and the Mechanic is chasing after him adding safety features and making sure nothing explodes.

First ship:

•Uhhhh Pen and Ink (Gordon/Penelope) - TAG

I don't really ship them anymore, they're fine but like the candy metaphor; I had too much of it and it kinda put me off. There's also been times where I've accidentally stumbled apon nsfw of them and it just kinda made me worried about consuming the ship at all.

Tbh I feel like their relationship would much more interesting if it's familial and/or platonic, I also love lesbian, wlw and aroace Lady Penelope headcanons so there's that too.

(I don't mean to upset anyone, I'm sorry.)

Last song I listened to:

• I believe it was The Nights by Avicii while I was drawing last night. (As long as we're not counting songs on the radio because I have no idea.)

Last movie I watched:

• The Super Mario Bros Movie.

My brother and I had a siblings' evening out to watch it in the cinema. Nintendo and Mario played a big role in our relationship when we were kids so going to see the movie together was quite important. We both loved it btw.

(I don't really sit down and watch movies so any that are just playing in the background I don't count.)

Currently reading:

• Heartstopper (do comics count?)

My friend convinced me to binge watch the first season with them on Netflix and I'm hooked, I love it!!

She lent me her copy of the books to read before the next season comes out, I'm not really much of a reader anymore but I definitely want to get through these.

Currently Watching:

• Whatever takes my fancy, I just pick and choose whatever. I don't really have much on my radar right now.

Currently consuming:

• Not sure if this means media consumption or actual consumption but right now I'm drinking a glass of Coca-Cola with some ice and a straw.

Currently craving:

Iced caramel latte from Coffee #1 but I don't think a moment goes by where I don't want one of those.

I could also go for a tight hug and a good night's sleep.

Does anybody know why TaG's OST has been removed from Spotify and Youtube?

It just vanished two days ago and thus is making it annoying, as I listen to the TaG OST daily, as an autistic person, it's one of my things, yknow, that i need to function and it calms me down.

but seriously what is happening, it's stressing me the fuck out

Um, random influx of followers? Hi there, it’s me, V, or @crunchyluigi and this is my..”art” blog and I say it like that because well..I don’t art very often and stuff, and it’s mostly silly edits like of a random buff Virgil TaG render..(an actual thing I edited) for fun.

I swear I’ve been working on some art stuff, and it’s not just edits.. I’ve been busy working on the Thunderbirds Experiment!AU once again, so expect to see art for that.. 👀

Once again, I promise this isn’t dead, unlike my motivation haha, but I’m working on it, slowly..

#chaotic v-bird #crunchyluigi

[chaoticvbird]

so first things first, the lumberjack has a gun so bare that in mind

aside from that, basically got bored, and made subtle edits to Virgil that you would barely notice upon first glance, and it still catches me off guard

I need to stop doing this kind of stuff, honestly /j
