yknow what i absolutely love about dghda? how socially unaware all the former blackwing subjects are. like these guys have no clue what to do in normal society and that absolutely makes sense
dirk is the most well adjusted out of all of the ones we know of and even he climbs into this random guy's apartment through the window, immediately calls him his assistant and then declares that he lives there now. he's clueless. he wants friends but he doesn't know how to talk to people, even after 16 years lived in freedom
and then there's bart and the rowdy 3
bart doesn't know how radios and tvs work, nor what hotels are. all she's known her whole life is blackwing labs and the fact that she's supposed to kill people. so that's what she does. she doesn't know how to talk to people, she just goes with the flow
and of course the rowdy 3, the absolute icons. unlike dirk, who wants to be a part of society, and bart, who really doesn't care, they actively reject social norms. they saw punk culture and ran with it. they're rude, violent and, well, rowdy. and they like that. but they're also stupid in the way that you would be if you grew up in a lab with (probably) next to no real education. none of them have any functioning braincells or social grace and that works for them
i didn't talk about mona or francis/moloch bc we don't really have a real frame of reference for either of them. mona is an inanimate object 99% of the time and francis has been in a coma for several decades

Happy New Years!!
Here is my art for the DGHDA 2023 Reverse Bang!!! Once again, I've taken this opportunity to make propaganda for under-appreciated characters/ships in the fandom. I had a great time working on this and collaborating with my wonderful writer, @sacred-algae, who wrote "A little resolution shouldn’t hurt, but if it does, promise you’ll hold me”. (Read it HERE!!!)
And thank you as always to the mods for putting this together!

Greetings, Dirktectives, it's lil old me again! Comin' at ya with some more @dghdabigbang goodness -- this time featuring Rowdy boys!
Got a lil bit experimental with this one bc I haven't done digital art in ages and wanted to mess around ^_^ Image descriptions in alt text!
Anyway, if you like these you better go read the excellent fic they're based off, Spinning Earth, Beating Hearts; written by the excellent @dogdogdog, who's doing god's work and giving us more Martin and Vogel found family goodness. Go, go do it! And give them love and comments!
(if you can't read the fic yet, the collection hasn't been revealed -- timezones are hell and I might be a bit early xD)

Was watching one of michael eklund movies wall all over me now im obssessed with the imagery of martin being tied to a chair with tape by Farah after he broke in to hide from priest and his goons. Farah ends up stashing him in Amanda her roomates art studio and when she comes home the two get into a fight over the stressful situation. Amanda ends up sitting on Martin as she takes it all in cause theres no other chair in the studio.

Found Family Tournament Round 1 Part 5 Group 25
Propaganda and further pictures under the cut
The Rowdy 3: Martin, Cross, Gripps, Vogel, Amanda Brotzman (& The Beast)
Submissions are still open!
The Rowdy 3:
Four psychic vampires (... not the SMeyer kind, they feed on psychic energy), their punk drummer mentally ill witch leader (she's very cool and badass), and the figment of imagination they adopt. They fuck shit up and save the universe - well, they *would* have if the show wasn't cancelled :(
Mae, Greg, Angus & Bea:
Sorry, I got no propaganda for them yet :(

Sacred_Algae is back in his home fandom with a fic for the @dghdabigbang ! I made this for the lovely @goatyoat ‘s art. It’s absolutely gorgeous. Check it out HERE: https://www.tumblr.com/goatyoat/738379105202044928/happy-new-years?source=share
A huge thank you to the mods as always!!!
Words: 2,666
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Relationships: Amanda Brotzman/Martin, Amanda Brotzman & Rowdy 3
Summary: Amanda has never really done New Year's Eve. It's not like she really even could. And the Rowdy 3 have never had a reason to celebrate. Not until her.

I hadn't really thought about the lottery ticket number before
But I just noticed that the first three numbers
745
Are the same as the room number that Sam (the lottery announcer and the woman that was with DuJour/Rimmer and he kills) was staying in with FBI guy Nathan in the hotel.
Which made me wonder if there is some meaning to the 15 0 1 in the number
I couldn't immediately think of anything, so if anyone has any theories or answers I'm so curious about it
