Aside from Harry and Hermione, he is arguably the next character whose pov I read about the most (gen or ship wise). Can't help that he's too interesting of a character for me to ignore when written right.
The fic by Rockity Sock is still an unpublished WIP so far, but it's really nice and will hopefully be completed and published later.
It begins at the end of the Ultimate Enemy episode, with Dan getting trapped in the thermos. And... I'm not sure how much I can say without spoiling it, but a lot of really cool stuff happens. It's a psychological type of fic, about different types of prisons and punishments, and has time stuff and pocket dimensions, and redemption stuff. (I was only planning on drawing one illustration for IB, but when I saw the WIP, I wanted to see so many things animated. So many awesome visuals. I wish I could've animated them all.)
This is the part I did animate:
He just walked for now, searching for the tiniest crack. The darkness went on for seemingly forever though, and no matter how far he walked it kept on going
Dan kept moving
He tried his best to break through the walls but every ectoblast he formed fizzled out. Fading into the darkness.
Oh, now it makes sense.
His powers are being limited, it takes him a few more tries to believe it. The fact that he’s trapped with nothing whatsoever. Endless hours spent, and wasted. Powers he has built up from the ground with no mentor, ones he trained endlessly after a decade.
Gone, disappeared, muffled. Limited. Dan let out a laugh, one with no humor. A laugh that turned into a cackle, he couldn’t stop.

I don't know how I'd ever convey this in art but. Thinking very deeply about how in boy king au, a very crucial part of characterization is that Seb is a wolf in sheep(or lamb more specifically)'s clothing and Fernando is a sheep in wolf's clothing.
Seb is very unassuming, very delicate, seemingly very vulnerable and malleable. But, deep down, he can be very ruthless. It's in the the way he hesitantly declares war, with a spark in his eye and a suppressed smirk. In the way he challenges someone to a card game or a horse race, proclaiming that he's not great, but winning every round and prancing around the room and mentioning it ad infinitum. The way he's able to instantly turn the tide in a debate in one fell swoop. By showing all his cards constantly and letting himself be vulnerable, he's making himself invulnerable. No one would ever consider him to be able to make big moves, so he wins every single time, because no one even thinks to expect it from him.
Fernando on the other hand, is constantly committed to having a looming presence and harsh reputation, but deep down, he's soft. He knows what happens to people when they're vulnerable, and he's not going to let himself be taken advantage of. The way he keeps a brave face when being informed of the marriage proposal, but goes back to his room and cries. The way he proclaims that he was always going to be the rightful ruler of Spain, but confides to Flavio that he never thought there was any real chance of it ever happening. The way he takes himself so seriously in public, but inside feels so giddy whenever he can make someone laugh. Everything to him always feels unstable and ready to crumble at any moment, and he's not willing to contribute to that by letting himself relax.
I think thats why it's very difficult for them to get along at first, because they have completely different approaches to how they carry themselves and make their way through life. Seb is confused at Fernando because he feels that he's very bland and overly serious at first, but truthfully he's not really seeing the actual Fernando. And Fernando finds Seb to be naive and easily taken advantage of, but that's because he's never seen Seb at his most cruel. Seb really loves when he eventually gets to see Fernando being vulnerable, and Fernando really admires and respects Seb when he sees him being serious. I think it just takes a while for them to show the other their full and complete selves, even the parts they can sometimes be ashamed of. There's this very compelling dichotomy in Seb laying out all his cards, but still being very difficult to read, and Fernando keeping his cards to his chest, but his intentions often being easily seen through.
When I met Lewis it was extraordinary! Something he asked me about which not many people do was my @permobil wheelchair. Which was very refreshing; Something so integral to my freedom.
It was great to talk about something that was a part of me, but also driving in a sense which is what he does best. maxwellmnight
haiiiii sorry for being gone for a while- I’ve been going through major art block and I don’t know why.
for ur patience here’s some ace attorney:33 (+ narumitsu as a lill treat)
Also what the hell was up with my last post it flopped so bad😭 HADES FANS WHERE R YALL
Shigaraki would definitely love to play with your hair while he’s gaming during a cold and rainy night, he has his back against the bed frame while one hand is on the controller and the other is carefully brushing through your hair. You’re laying on top of him, cuddled up to him to search for some warmth. 🥀
I hc that your presence and playing with your hair would comfort him and make him feel safe. I saw your post and had to drop a stupid little thought. <3
Pretty boy. He always looks at you with his soft smile and with eyes full of adoration, you're his safe space.
Maaaaaaaaaars!! I'm -- holy shit, I'm yearning so bad tonight, this hit me so hard.
Imagine crawling into his lap and he raises his arms to accommodate you, taking a moment to pause his game until you're properly settled in. Tomura full on curls his legs and arms around you, clamping his thighs to keep you still. It's a full-body hug and you feel so goddamn safe. You rest your head against his chest, physically feeling the wear and tear of the day's events dissipate with every passing second. He doesn't say much but he doesn't have to: he understands. You're tired and need some peace and quiet.
The only sounds that fill the silence are his heartbeat and the soft bleep-bloops of the game in the background as he continues to play. After a moment of this, his fingers tangle into your hair and gently begin dragging against your scalp. You let out a quiet whine and lean into the touch, closing your eyes as you enjoy the soothing feeling. Tomura admires the look on your face as it fades from frustrated and tired to content and serene.
"There you go, that's right...just relax. I gotchu. Always."
i know it like… wasn’t the key takeaway from the movie or anything, but i am even more in love with Florence Pugh than i was before. if that was somehow even possible.
aaaa I just wanna hear izzy laugh so bad!! I want someone to crack him up and miraculously get a genuine smile out of him for the first time in like two decades. I want him to overhear some funny bit from the crew’s shared stories that actually makes him huff a little snort, only for him to immediately try to hide it. I want to hear that gravelly, deep rusty chuckle of his goddamnit!!! I want everyone to hear it and immediately whip their heads up in wide eyed shock. (is that… izzy?? laughing???? I didn’t even know he could DO that). (something in ed’s chest creaks a little to hear it again. it’s been so long since he’s heard that sound). I will not rest until my boy gets a tiny shred of happiness and that’s final!!!!
I know I said in this post that Andy wouldn't go to space, but like the idea of her in space is so much fun.
Her first time on a spaceship everytime it groans Andy is convinced it'll fall apart and she's terrified. She won't show it naturally, she'll complain about this rickety 'height of human engineering' and how it's worse than the first planes and generally the wors thing humanity ever came up with.
She'll sleep close to the escape pods, cause dying over and over in the frozen void of space is not on her todo list. Also, she will complain about escape pods cause "oh great then I can starve over and over on a god forsaken planet!" but she'll still stick close to them anyway.
Will probably complain about spacesuits being uncomfortable, bulky or something else (or all of them together).
If the artificial gravity fails she will complain until there's no tomorrow but also will greatly enjoy it and just mess around like the little gremlin she is (while complaining).
The first time she doesn't complain is when she gets to see the beauties of space, earth from orbit, nebulas and all that really pretty shit. She gets quiet and there's this awe in her eyes and she realises space is so big she might never get to explore all of it even with her immortal lifetime and so there's suddenly this vastness, this new thing, this hope to her. Something she can't run out of.
She complains less after that happens... until she realises fake space coffee tastes like shit and then she's right back to complaining.
And another thing Andy realises after a long while in space is that she gets homesick for earth. After being there for millenia, knowing every corner, she misses knowing every corner. It gives her a whole new appreciation for everything.
