Been thinking about CS!TSCS for a month at this point. Please enjoy these lil' doodles about it!
[ID in ALT and typed dialogue under cut :D]
Numero 1
Jacquie: Up the CHIMNEY?!
Carol: RIGHT UP IT! MID DISCUSSION!
Jacquie: GIRL, DUMP HIS ASS!!!!
Numero 2
Santa: How did you even GET that vest, huh?!?!
Jacqueline: I MURDERED my PREDECESSOR.
Santa: you what
Numero 3
Jack: Good day at work today, little flurry?
Jacqueline: Mmmmmm yep! Told Santa I killed you for the vest and the title >:)
Jack, turning around sharply and full of pride: HA! NICE!

These were the doods I meant to post last last Thursday after this scrimbly Jacqueline, lol. When I tell you that Crystal Springs TSCS has been IN MY HEAD, I AM NOT JOKING!
The reason I didn't post these sooner is bc I really wanted to draw the last one and hadn't gotten around to it as of yet, and I also wanted to colour these PROPER scrimblies because holy SHIT I LOVE COLOURING 🤩🤩🤩🤩
More fun facts about CS in TSCS:
Carol and Jacqueline have regular vent sessions. Mostly Carol; Jacqueline's just there for the TEA (and emotional support)
Her catchphrase could very much be "CAROL. DUMP HIS ASS" in this cs au
"Don't you mean tscs au?" NO. TSCS IS AN AU IN ITSELF AND I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL
She frustrates Santa to no end bc A) She's Jack Frost and he has previous biases, and B) she goes OUT OF HER WAY to bother him.
When I say Jacqueline dislikes tscs!Scott, I am not joking. It is not hyperbole. She can't STAND him. And she tells him that to his FACE. MULTIPLE TIMES. And adds insult to injury bc she's buds with Carol and Buddy and Sandy, lol, and all the new gen elves are like, chill with her
(I have a silly hc that Betty is a Bernelle kid and Jacquie's her godmother, lollllll)
She and I both dislike people who need change and refuse to work on themselves/believe they're FINE and it SHOWS.
After she made the claim about murdering Jack, Santa was TERRIFIED on top of his usual distaste for Jack's successor lmao
She was quite delighted at how Santa took that tale. Elaborated a bit. I imagine it went something like this:
"...you what?"
Her murderous look intensified. Santa could easily picture the darkness gathering around her the way it did in cartoons when the evil character was. Well. Being evil.
"You heard me!" She sounded way too delighted, Santa noted. "I killed my predecessor! You know, the guy before me? Yeah. Stabbed him right dead. Pulled the vest out of the melted pile of slush that was once Jack Frost the first and put it right on."
"...Jesus Christ."
Anyway, after that, she goes home and Jack pops in for 4 o'clock coffee and the final image ensues, lol. This interaction follows that:
"And he believed you?" Jack asked, pulling out the chair next to her and plunking down, stretching out his legs and crossing them at the ankles.
"Damn near shat himself about it, too," Jacqueline confirmed, looking sly over the top of her mug.
Jack laughed. "Oh that's, that's marvellous."
"Mm! It was! THEN I elaborated. Told him I took the vest like a war trophy, you know? Didn't even wash it or anything. Shame I said SLUSH instead of BLOOD because I bet he would've like. DIED on the spot picturing me putting on a blood soaked vest, ehehe. I swear Jack, I could see his soul leave his body. Definitely top 5 best days at work. Maybe top 3, even."
Jack is deffs enjoying retirement in this au! Going full vacation mode, spending most days in various hot spots on various beaches with various drinks, usually popping by the family home for 4 o'clock coffee and cocoa--and a break from the sun since he burns and Winter worries
YES he IS still wearing his suit pants. I thought that'd be funny and just about died picturing him in khakis
With every Jack I draw his hair grows more powerful, AS IT SHOULD BE!!
I DID draw a chair behind Jacqueline but her poofy hair ate it~
I think she is A) older in this au than she regularly is and B) is already married to Dite. I'm still on the fence about both those things, but she feels older in this au--probably because the entire cast is older lmao
Late night post is late bc I finished colouring this and wanted to share it asap, DAMN THE TIME!!!!

Okay-
Just spent 3 hours looking for a good non smut or romance related fic to read about any of my numerous comfort characters. Ended up settling on one I've already read because I couldn't find anything else. I mean, props to everybody who writes that kind of stuff, because that's art, too, and can still have a really good story, but can we please normalize making strong introspective fanfiction that helps to create a deeper emotional connection to our favorite blorbos as individuals? I'm dying for it over here. I want to know these characters. I want to be able to feel their pain, get a better understanding of their struggles and their real situations. Most of my comfort characters are so physically and emotionally scarred that I have absolutely no idea why people would think they'd be dtf, let alone be capable of facilitating a healthy relationship, but it's still all I can find.
Weh. Being the weirdo is hard. I just don't want to feel alone in my mental struggles, and it's insane to think that characters I relate to in certain ways are just so ready to give in and accept their situations. I mean, if they do, they're healthier than me, but you know it takes time to get there. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk, lol.

Hey, I want to get into Batman, Flash, and Arrow comics, I already know a lot by watching many different (mainly animated) shows and just existing in the fandom but with so many different continuities and interconnected story lines, I'm both intimidated and lost on starting, do you have any recommendations? I heard Nightfall was a good story but don't know how beginner friendly it is
I'm not exactly qualified to give comic recs since I haven't read very much, and I haven't read any Flash or Arrow stuff yet, so I'm gonna refer you to @flashfuture
It's a funny coincidence that you sent this ask on the same day I started reading Legends of the Dark Knight, which literally opens by calling itself "the perfect way to start reading comics". It generally avoids crossing over with other titles and mostly takes place during the early years of Batman's career, so you can read a lot of it without additional context. Alternatively, you don't have to worry about the order issues go in if you're reading a trade paperback. The 90s Batman story arcs (like Knightfall you mentioned) are all available in that format.
I personally jumped in at the start of Post-Crisis, then read most of the Batman stories from there up until Tim's official debut as Robin. I usually use DCU Guide to keep track of the appearances of characters I'm interested in. From there, I combined a bunch of characters' lists into a custom reading order for myself (colors denote which character appears in the issue). For crossover events I grabbed issue orders from the wiki.
