#tippen's fics

[tippenfunkaport]

I have a headcanon about Etheria having the need for an official Space Fleet post war and Adora, Catra and Bow all end up as officers while it's getting off the ground.

And Glimmer meanwhile is already busy enough with Queen duties so she doesn't hold an official office in the Etherian Space Fleet, but she does use her position to shower her friends with random medals and commendations from Bright Moon whenever possible because she can.

Anyway, here's a little Glimbow short about this to go along with the drawing.

I think we can all agree that Entrapta is not remotely reasonable, so any story where she is somehow the reasonable one is incredibly funny because that usually means every other character has gone into Total Disaster Mode

#this fic of scorpia and catra physically running away when in proximity of their crushes #while entrapta tries to reel them in 'come on now you rehearsed this like 35 times and also i have bonds on this pair happening' #meanwhile adora just encouraging bow and glimmer to fall into complete chaos #love to see it #i might be thinking of max's huntara fic again #but also of Going There #tippens mid s5 glimbow fic wherein for some reasom bow went to ADORA for romantic guidance

Questions and Clarifications

We're thrilled with how many people have expressed interest in this already and are gearing up for an amazing event!

Here's a quick round up of some of the questions we've gotten so far....

(that's how you should picture me answering all these questions)

Does it have to be a new fic or can you participate with an existing fic / new chapter of an old fic?

Must be a new fic written specifically for the bang.

Can it be an AU?

AUs are completely welcome. So long as the focus is on the SPOP characters, you can put them in whatever situations you wish!

Can it be a crossover?

While characters from other properties can cameo, the main focus of the story should be on the SPOP characters.

Can you post something from an existing AU of yours?

A new standalone fic in an existing AU of yours is fine! In other words, if someone could hop into your Bang fic without having read anything else of your AU and still follow it, that would work.

Can I write my own fic, but also sign up to illustrate someone else's?

Sure! Just let us know on your sign up form so we know what is going on.

What kind of draft is due on March 31st?

The objective of that check in is to show to the mods that your fic is close enough to finished that you are on track to post it on time. There may still be typos, it might still need a lot of editing, but it should be at least 75% complete.

This step is to ensure we're assigning artists to the fics that are nearly ready for the event and not giving someone a writing partner that has barely started.

What happens if I don't get my draft in on time?

While only writers who get their first draft in by the March 31st deadline are eligible for an artist partner, writers who complete their draft after that are still welcome to post their fic as part of the event and will still be listed alongside the other content. They just will not have the chance to be paired with an artist.

Are there any limitations on what fics can be about? i.e. does it have to center around certain ships or characters or prompts?

As long as the focus is on the SPOP characters, anything goes! The only thing to keep in mind is that artists get to choose with fics they illustrate. So the more appealing or interesting to draw your idea is, the more likely you are to attract an amazing artist.

Any restrictions on mature content?

Generally, it's open to whatever, but, for the comfort of everyone involved, we'd appreciate if it was nothing too... let's say controversial. If you're not sure, feel free to ask. Keep in mind, the previous answer about artists getting to choose applies here too.

Will you be sharing the Big Bang content on this Tumblr blog?

Yes! We plan to share links to all the fics as they are posted.

Can I participate without joining the Discord?

Unfortunately, no. This event is hosted by the SPOP Creative Flex and as such is run under the guidelines of that community. While Tippen is the head mod of this event, she is not on the mod team for the server itself so if you have questions or issues about the SPOP Creative Flex server specifically (including appealing a prior ban or other issue), you can contact the server mods through the email listed here.

What should I write? I can't pick!

That, I can't help you with. But I would say pick the idea that is begging to be written, particularly if it's large scale and exciting. It is called a BIG Bang after all! Think epically!

Any other questions? Our askbox is open!

Alright, @tippenfunkaport came up with the idea of Glimmer showing Bow how to use chopsticks and wanted a fic of it. So I'm stepping up and producing it. Bow and Glimmer have a night off from Camp Bright Moon. Their date takes them a little restaurant in the nearby small town, where Glimmer decides to show Bow how to use chopsticks. Tippen, I hope you enjoy it!

*****

Bow looked across the blazing hot parking lot towards the restaurant Glimmer had chosen for their date night away from Camp Bright Moon. The sign on the place declared that it served Chinese, Thai, and Tex-Mex and below that, the words Buffet blinked on and off.

“This place?” Bow had said. “Are you sure?”

“You said you wanted Chinese for dinner,” Glimmer said.

“Um, yeah, but this I’m not so sure about,” Bow said, looking at the strip mall restaurant with a bad drawing of a pagoda with a sombrero on top of it in the window.

“Listen, if you want something else, we’re going to have to drive to Broken Timber and that’s way too long,” Glimmer said. “In Rogers, it’s this, the diner, fast food, or the gas station on the highway. To be fair, the gas station does do some killer fried BBQ burritos.”

👐 for the fic writer asks!

what do YOU get out of writing?

Wenn sich die Frage aufs Schreiben allgemein bezieht, dann ist es vor allem das Schreiben. Ich denke mir schon Geschichten aus, solange ich denken kann. Meine Kindergärtnerin hat mich liebevoll Schnatterinchen genannt und ich hatte als Kind mehr als einmal Ärger, weil ich irgendwelche (Lügen-)Geschichten erzählt habe; ich hatte schon immer zu viel Fantasie, die musste irgendwo hin und einen 90k wirklich grauenhaften Vampirroman in einen Laptop zu tippen ist schöner, als ein Kommentar auf dem Zeugnis ;)

Was das Fanfiction-Schreiben angeht, ist es vor allem die Interaktion mit anderen Fans und das Austauschen über Geschichten und Szenarien. Ich muss meine blöden Ideen nicht mehr für mich behalten sondern kann sie aussprechen und anderer Leute Meinung dazu hören - Wie toll ist das!!!

Und natürlich habe ich durch's Fanfiction-Schreiben auch Freunde gefunden, die mich motivieren und anspornen (und mit wirklich tollem Lesematerial versorgen). Das liebe ich wirklich sehr, dieses Gefühl der Zusammengehörigkeit, wenn man abends im Discord sitzt und weiß, dass da noch jemand anders vorm Laptop sitzt und tippt :D

Danke für den schönen Ask <3

Some Things I Still Can’t Tell You

Poems by Misha Collins

From Misha Collins, actor, longtime poet, and activist, whose massive online following calls itself his “Army For Good," comes his debut poetry collection, Some Things I Still Can't Tell You. Trademark wit and subtle vulnerability converge in each poem; this book is both a celebration of and aspiration for a life well lived.

So. Misha [fanfiction writer] confirmed?

So silly. But what if Dmitri really actually wrote some Destiel fic(s)?

#misha collins #dmitri tippens krushnic #some things I still can't tell you #lol is this a bad joke? #but what if misha really wrote castiel fics? #dead #army of good

Princess Prom Aftermath

The missing scene where Glimmer and Bow get separated after they get captured at Princess Prom

Bow’s eyes blinked open slowly. His vision was blurry, his head foggy, and his body felt heavy like lead. A quiet groan escaped his lips before he shut his eyes tightly to see if that would help. When he opened his eyes again, the first thing he noticed was the dark metal floor moving beneath him. He was confused at first but as he started regaining his senses he became aware of the acrid smell in the air, the sound of machinery whirling and the feeling of his arms being held tightly behind his back as he was dragged forward. He blinked rapidly as his breath picked up trying to remember what had happened. The last thing he could remember clearly was going to find his cummerbund after his argument with Glimmer. However, as soon as he had walked out of the hall, he felt a stinging pain in his lower back and then everything went dark.

His heart was still pounding by the time he’d gained feeling in the rest of limbs, but he slowly calmed his breathing, kept his body limp and his head down as he discreetly surveyed his surroundings. From what he could see, it was clear that he was no longer in the Kingdom of Snows. Instead of beautiful but cold ice walls, he was surrounded by ugly metal walls illuminated by harsh green lighting. At his sides were a tall, green-skinned lizard man and a dark-skinned girl with dreads, restraining his arms as they hauled him along. He could vaguely recall his first encounter with them on the mission to recruit Mermista into the Rebellion when the Horde had attacked the Sea Gate. His best guess was that he was in the Fright Zone.

His stomach dropped as his gut was filled with dread. He was starting to have trouble keeping his breathing under control. He had never seriously entertained the possibility of ever being captured by the Horde. Sure, he’d been in danger before, but things had never felt as dire or uncertain as they were now. With the rules set in place at princess prom this was last thing he expected to happen. He couldn’t imagine what they’d do to him now that he was within their grasp. Would they torture him for information? Kill him out right. He wondered whether his friends would be able to rescue him before it was too late. If he died, his friends would be devastated. Adora would blame herself and Angella and Glimmer would probably take it the hardest considering they had lost King Micha the same way. Then there was his family. His dads… his dads didn’t even know he was fighting for the Rebellion. If he didn’t make it, they would never know what happened him. It would be like he’d just disappeared. His heart broke at the very thought. His spiraling descent into depression was interrupted, however, by a soft murmuring sound behind him in a voice that caused his heart to sink even further.

“Wha- Bow.”

He gasped and his eyes widened in shock. What was she doing here? he thought. He couldn’t believe they had gotten her too. “Glimmer!” he shouted back. Getting his feet under him, he glanced back to see his best friend being dragged along behind him by the white-haired scorpion woman who threw him off that Horde battleship in Salineas. His friend’s eyes were glazed over but they were rapidly clearing up.

“Bow?!” she gasped. Then she started fighting her captor furiously as she lunged toward him. “Bow! Let him go!” “Whoa, hey!” Scorpia exclaimed while trying to keep a hold of her fellow princess. Shouting furiously Glimmer disappeared in a cloud of her signature sparkles and reappeared beside Bow’s captors. She tossed a blinding ball of glittery magic into each of their faces to distract them. At the shouting Catra, who’d been carrying Adora’s sword, turned around and ran quickly back towards them. Bow yanked his arm out of one of his captor’s grasp, ripping his sleeve off in the process, and reached out towards his friend. Just as Glimmer was about to grasp his out-stretched hand, Catra tackled her to the ground but not before tossing the sword to Scorpia.

“I don’t think so princess,” Catra taunted as she made to restrain her.

“Ugh! Get off me!” Glimmer shouted. The two of them grappled with each other heatedly trying to get the upper hand. Glimmer’s dress started accumulating rips and tears from how hard she tried fighting the cat girl off. She even tried teleporting a few times to get some distance but refused to move too far away from her friend. Unfortunately, Catra was too fast, being able to remain nearly on top of her the whole time. Bow was in a similar predicament as he too fought furiously against tough odds as he struggled with two strong opponents to reach his friend.

“Keep them apart. Don’t let them anywhere near each other,” Catra ordered. While the two were distracted Scorpia was able to sound an alarm that brought soldiers running. Just as Glimmer teleported to a new location a Horde soldier was able to get behind her and shock her harshly with a stun baton. The princess cried out in pain before collapsing to the ground unconscious.

“Glimmer!” Bow shouted in panic before being forced to the ground with his arms wrenched behind his back. As his arms were cuffed together, he watched as their captor’s did the same to his friend.

“Take the boy to one of the holding cells,” Catra said as she straightened her rumpled suit. “Take the Princess to Shadow Weaver, she’ll know how to neutralize her indefinitely.”

“What? NO!” Bow shouted frantically. He tried fighting again even though he knew it was futile. “Don’t do this! You can’t separate us like this! Let her go! Glimmer!” She didn’t even stir as they were both roughly dragged away from each other.

He couldn’t believe how horribly things had gone. All he’d wanted was to have a good time at a fancy party with his friends. Instead, they barely spent any time together, he spent the whole evening telling the same stupid joke, got into a fight with his best friend, and got captured by the Horde. He should’ve just gone with Glimmer. Then they would have never gotten separated. They wouldn’t have fought. They wouldn’t have gotten captured. This wouldn’t (possibly) be the last time he ever saw his best friend again.

Here’s the post that inspired this fic

Super Pal Trio post series

Was talking to Tippen about this in DMs and I thought I may as well express it here. 

So in season 5, we got the scenes where Catra and Entrapta reunited on the ship and sorted out their problems, they even grew a bit closer in Stevenson’s missing scene fic, and you can get a sense for what their dynamic is - they’re both trying to make up for their fuck-ups, and they face difficult integration into the Rebellion. In spite of everything, they build a good rapport,  and are pretty happy chilling in the background while the other characters do the hero planning. While their onscreen interactions are few, there is the foundation for what was once a messed-up dynamic to become an incredibly wholesome friendship. 

With Scorpia, it’s different. While she does get scenes with Entrapta, it’s kind of tense due to Entrapta’s friction with the other princesses, and then they don’t interact or mention each other for the rest of the season (even when Scorpia’s chipped which...yeah, they could’ve had ONE line on this... but okay). 

Then with Catra, obviously there’s everything that happened in season 4 and in this season they only get one hug as a reunion.  There is no big Super Pal Trio Reunion, sadly.  Just one on one meetups. 

The characters Scorpia has truly bonded with most in S5 are Emily (the robot) and Perfuma and Frosta. These are her main relationships in the season, in part because she was separated from the other two during the space mission and when she was chipped. These characters validate and support Scorpia in a way that the other two SPT members could not.   

The impression you get from this is kind of sad, in that, Scorpia wasn’t getting what she needed from the other two, and found it from somewhere else. That’s fucked up on accounts of, we had all the scenes in season 4 of Scorpia seeing Entrapta as her first friend, that SUPER WHOLESOME “Princess Scorpia” episode, but they don’t build on that in season 5, and even though Catra was Scorpia’s main relationship for the entire show, it’s not given any time here. A more pessimistic view is that Scorpia went for “better adjusted” friends, people who could reciprocate and communicate their love for her better.  So yeah, their friendships with Scorpia got screwed over by the timing and plot of s5.   

But, I was thinking - wouldn’t that make for an interesting story?  

Like, okay. Picture this scenario:  

Catra and Entrapta have been out in space for a long time. The war ends, everyone is friends again, but Scorpia is far closer to the other Princesses than she ever was with them, and they know it. They’ve grown apart over time and while Scorpia is very eager to be buddies, it’s clear that “Super Pal Trio” has some issues to work out if they want to be closer.  

Catra and Entrapta feel sad about this. They didn’t - couldn’t - give Scorpia what she needed, simply because of who they are. 

Catra was not able to be vulnerable in the Horde, but Scorpia kept trying to be there for her. Catra was never going to love Scorpia the way Scorpia loved her, not with the Adora brainrot and the way things were and everything Scorpia reminded her about, but she’s obviously been beating herself up for mistreating Scorpia the way she did, and perhaps Catra feels like Scorpia deserves better and she’s lost out on the chance to be close to her. 

And Entrapta, god, it’s not her fault that she’s weird and aloof and bad at explaining to people how much they mean to her, but that’s how it is. Part of her feared this was inevitable. Scorpia was her best friend too, but she didn’t tell her, and she couldn’t identify what Scorpia wanted out of their friendship. She barely knows what healthy friendship looks like either, and stands no chance compared to Perfuma in telling Scorpia what she needs to hear. 

So, they’re a bit heartbroken, they feel like they were not good enough for their friend. I think there’s a beautiful tragedy in this. Like, it’s messed up, but in a realistic way. In fact.... It’s the same energy as Glimmer not being good enough for Adora, not being able to make her feel as comfortable as Catra does. I feel like Glimmer would get the sads about that.     

ANYWAY, not all hope is lost - in typical Catrapta fashion, they decide they CAN’T give up, and scheme on how to show Scorpia they really care about her, developing a onesided rivalry with Perfuma and the Princesses. They enlist help from Best Friend Squad on what the best way to reach Scorpia is, and things get silly.  

That’s what I was thinking when I was making this comic... Considering how much Catra and Entrapta use gift-giving as a demonstration of their love language, birthday celebrations are going to be one hell of an event for Scorpia. 

I don’t know how easy it would be for the two to TALK to Scorpia about these feelings in this scenario, I feel like they’d have to get caught out first. Maybe after setting fire to the kitchen six times there’d be a “Sorry, we were trying to outdo your girlfriend and show you that we care and that we can be good friends too, but we messed it up.”   

And then Scorpia gets really emotional and pulls them into a hug and says she’s sorry she made them feel like they weren’t enough, and Entrapta pulls into the hug hard and gives a full hair wrap, and even Catra hugs her back this time and says “don’t apologise, dummy”, everyone is crying and---  yeah I basically just wrote a Steven Universe episode but damn I just want my Super Pal Trio feels. 

There is some irony in it going from Scorpia feeling insecure about whether she’s liked by Catra and Entrapta, and working hard for their affection, to it swapping to the other way around and everyone competing for Scorpia, misguided or otherwise.

5 Works Tag Game

Rules: it’s time to love yourselves! choose your 5 (ish) favorite works you created in the past year (fics, art, edits, etc.) and post or link them below to reflect on the amazing things you brought into the world in 2020. tag as many writers/artists/etc. as you want (fan or original) so we can spread the love and link each other to awesome works!

I got tagged by @tippenfunkaport and @caramelaire for this tag game!!

I’m not one to compliment myself on anything honestly. Recently I remember thinking about how I barely drew anything this year. There was a part of my brain nagging at me to check how much I had drawn last year. So, I uh did. Turns out I drew basically nothing?! I triple checked this in fact. My DeviantART, Tumblr AND my camera roll. Nothing . . . I drew 5 very basic pinback button designs and that was it. I couldn’t believe it; but, it made be feel so much better about what I did this year. Basically my whole instagram is all artwork from this year, since I am actually really new to IG. I got super close to 40 works this year!

Now onto the works! They are in order of when I drew them 😊

Glimmer Inspired Patterns

I wanted to teach myself how to make patterns on Clip Studio so bad! I watched a couple of YT tutorials, and I can’t even remember why I decided to make She-ra ones specifically; I’m glad I did though! The Glimmer one means so much to me. Just looking at makes me so happy! The fact that so many people have now called it ‘aesthetically pleasing’ makes me feel as though I actually created a work that others could relate to. That was enough praise for me; to create something for myself that everyone else loved as well 💖

Glimbow Cuddle

This was my first real She-ra artwork. When I saw there was a Glimbow Week again I knew I had to join this one. I don’t know if anyone knows this; but, drawings take me forever to make. I used to be strictly a traditional artist and still prefer to draw rough drafts on paper. I couldn’t decide if I wanted them on Glimmer’s window seat or in Bow’s dads’ library. I was afraid of doing backgrounds; so, both sounded absolutely terrifying. I decided to go for the fireplace even if it meant fancy lighting on top of the background aspect. I think I actually spent more time on the lighting that’s hitting Bow than on anything else in this picture. It was worth it though. I studied how the show did backgrounds and lighting for a while. I tried so many different attempts at how I wanted it to look and ultimately went with this one! I love it so much 🥺

Bow’s list with doodles

Ah, yes the drawings I did for Tippen’s birthday!! I knew I wanted to draw a scene from ‘Tuna Cans’, but I was worried to try something like this. You see, I’m somebody that likes to stay in a comfort zone and only uploaded fully rendered perfect artworks. This year was the first time that I let the ‘fun’ aspect overrule my perfectionism. I’m so happy that I stepped out of my comfort zone for this, because I love Chibi styles so much. I can’t even explain the absolute joy I had drawing these. I didn’t tell anyone what I was up to, so it was just me laughing at myself for being an absolute goofball. The end result and everyone’s reactions were more than I could have ever expected. I’ve decided I’m going to revive this style soon as well so please look forwards to it!!

Space Suit Squad

Okay, so I cheated a little with this one! I couldn’t just pick ONE of the squad. Honestly though, I drew these with the thought of making them into prints in the back of my mind. I taught myself how to draw a space background and I’m really proud of it! So much in fact that the one in the final pictures is the first and last one I ended up doing! If I had to pick my favorites I think I’d have to pick Glimmer, Bow and then Catra. I LOVE the way I draw Catra I don’t know why? Maybe the eyebrows I’m not sure 🤔 It took me a while to decide on expressions and poses; although, I figured these were the ones because I could look at them and go ‘yep that’s them.’

Winter Glimbow

This one took me soooo long; I actually had to tell myself that I should put my pen down because it was done and I should stop touching it!!! I was sketching pictures in my sketchbook to make more patterns for my Redbubble account, and of course I’m like 100% Glimbow brainrot. My brain went, oooo you know what would be cute? If this skate was actually Bow’s and not just generic. So, I ended up sketching Glimmer’s as well. The heart that their skates make is like the cherry on the top for me, it had to be done! I’m not sure I did the background justice on this one? It doesn’t matter to me though because the concept was worth the effort. It was snowing here and I needed this picture like I needed air, even if it wasn’t even December at the time I posted it 🤣 I liked this one so much that I have similar ideas for the other seasons sketched out as well 👀

I’m sorry that I ramble so often. I’m like this quiet person; yet, it’s hard for me to get out everything I want to say? I’m horrible at it actually my brain runs at a hundred miles a minute and I’m not good with words most of the time. This turned out as more of a thought process than my actual feelings on each one I suppose. SO, in conclusion. I drew A LOT, I stepped out of my comfort zone, taught myself digital art and patterns. I let myself come to terms with the fact that not every piece of art has to be ‘perfect’. I drew at least 5 FULL backgrounds and I never used to draw them! I’ve also always been one for simple shading and lighting, and I do think there’s a time for that type of style, while other times sometimes a more difficult one might be appropriate. I’m glad that I did both because now I know I can do both, and they each give a characteristic that I adore 🥰 Thank you to everyone that has followed me through this journey, or just anyone who read my rambling! I have an honorable mention under the cut and some originals for anyone that made it this far! 💖

I’m not going to tag anyone; but, if you want to do this PLEASE do it. It was so great to reflect on what I did this year, it really surprised me and I think what you have done will surprise you as well! It’s been a rough year, and in the end we have been here supporting each other and that’s one of the most rewarding parts of being in a fandom! 💜

Glimmer screencap redraw

Another picture where I really tested myself on drawing a background! I love it even if it killed my hand!! The background definitely took the longest on this one too. My sister literally said ‘Wait, you did the background? I thought you just drew her?!’ And that was the only validation I needed!! I ended up thinning out Glimmer’s outline so she matched the background better. If you use the vectors on Clip please use this feature! You can do the opposite as well, it’s super useful!

Oh hi! Remember when I said I couldn’t decide between the two locations? Truth is, I also couldn’t decide if I was going to make it traditional or digital. I ended up getting really mad at the traditional version unfortunately. I haven’t gotten the hang of traditional backgrounds. In the end, I should have also done it in Copic and not cheap pencil crayons 😫

Just some space friends! There is something so rewarding about traditional art. Yes, I can see the mistakes and the proportions are most likely off; yet, it doesn’t bother me? I wanted to also show these bonus drawings because nobody is perfect and I thought some of you might like to see some of my process. Being able to hold it in my hands is something I will never tire of, in a way it’s super rewarding. I keep all my art actually and sometimes I like the rough drafts more than the finished work 👀 Outlining artwork can actually ruin the charm every so often 😔 I do really love the final versions of these though!

Annnnnd the last bonus!! As you can tell the final version stayed pretty true to my sketches! I almost went with a more realistic look and made the symbols ‘stitched’ onto the skates. In the end it felt like it didn’t fit the rest of the drawing unless I wanted to add extra details to the clothing as well. The wings on Glimmer’s skates turned into ‘Shwings’ PLEASE tell me other people know what that is? I had a pair a few years ago and misplaced them. I was doing the rough draft and it popped into brain and I treated it as a joke at first, until I gave it a proper chance XD In the end I fell in love with it!!!

Hello :3

here I am !

🤯 & 🎉

Sorry I'm late aber du weißt ja, dass ich eigentlich im Moment nicht tippen darf ;)

🤯 What's a genre you struggle with as a writer (ex. romance, action, etc.)?

Fantasy, leider. Und History-AUs, was ich sehr schade finde, weil ich beides unglaublich gerne lese.

Ist besonders blöd, weil ich dir eine History-AU versprochen habe und gestern eine super Fantasy-Idee hatte...

🎉 What leads you to consider a fic a success?

a) ich habe sie fertig geschrieben und finde sie nicht absolut furchtbar.

b) Ein Kommentar, der entweder vollkommen unhinged ist oder nachts um drei verfasst wurde :D

Danke für den lieben Ask <3
