OMG, posting *again*, WTF

[buggery]

By way of a warning on this post, I present the following chatlog:

thete1: <--f***ing loves "Get By"
ficbyzee: I seriously had that song on repeat for *weeks* before I even decided to vid it.
thete1: *ahahahahaha*!
ficbyzee: I mean, I like his other stuff, but that song makes me *flail.*
thete1: I loooove me some gospel-infused hip-hop
thete1: Full stop
ficbyzee: :D yes.
thete1: ... it makes me want to write even more Timmyfic
thete1: *hangs head*
ficbyzee: *dies*
ficbyzee: I.... don't see that, but yay you?
thete1: *laughs* That's okay. One day I'll make all of you understand
ficbyzee: *heeee*
thete1: *terrible whirling eyes*
ficbyzee: I take it you mean toon Timmy, right?
thete1: Oh yes
thete1: The one who would morph *into* Eminem if he ever met Nighthawk
ficbyzee: *diiiiiiies*
ficbyzee: I'll take your word for it. :D

(Nighthawk being an African-American but otherwise deeply Battish vigilante/hero in Marvel Comics' Supreme Power series. For related give-Nighthawk-a-Robin background, see here.)





This is actually largely a manip, based on a screencap from The New Batman Adventures cartoon, which I ganked from the gallery at Mary's Even-Numbered Robins site. Due to the nature of the animation business, it's nigh-impossible to give artist credit for a screencap, but the character designs in the original still were created by Bruce Timm.

Blame for this bit of frippery goes mostly to Te, of course, though Zee and petronelle both contributed ...inspiration.

It's kind of deeply terrifying how real that looks. OMGWTF ♥

[derryderrydown.livejournal.com]

AHAHAHAHAAAA!!!

That is absolutely terrifying and completely perfect.

[thete1.livejournal.com]

Still. So much. Less. Than THREE.

JOY JOY JOYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

*mee hee*

[jemppu.livejournal.com]

:D Ahahah. Yes!

(his eyes are creeping me out)

[buggery.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

...also, yeah, it freaks me out a little, too. Unexpectedly so.

[buggery.livejournal.com]

*wins*

[buggery.livejournal.com]

Right back atcha, baby!

[buggery.livejournal.com]

Timmy's eyes? Or Kyle's?

(Also: OMG Jemppu liked my art. JEMPPU! ::does spastic dance of wow::)

[ratcreature]

*flail!*

[petronelle.livejournal.com]

That is a particular kind of beautiful.

*attempts to start breathing again without either going ACK or laughing and fails*

I love the shadowy texturing.

Also, oh god, Timmy. RUN.

[jemppu.livejournal.com]

Well, both I guess. But Timmy's definitely more :o

(and I want an action figure of him!)

::KEYBOARD SMASH::

oh my stars and garters - perhaps there are *reasons* why canon!Nighthawk doesn't have a Robin?

(that those reasons are quite possibly the same reasons that comics!Bruce shouldn't be allowed within 20 feet of flexible and athletic teenagers is something I'm quite cheerfully ignoring.)

[buggery.livejournal.com]

For certain, *very* specific values of "perfect," to be sure.

[buggery.livejournal.com]

::grin::

[buggery.livejournal.com]

So you *are* going to write the accompanying prose?

Nighthawk *needs* a ...sidekick, Petra!

I love the shadowy texturing.

I wonder if everyone realises you need to stare at the black void over Tim Shady's shoulder until you can make out the scale armour on Kyle's chest...

[buggery.livejournal.com]

perhaps there are *reasons* why canon!Nighthawk doesn't have a Robin?

That's just silly. If not this ...partner, then Sparrowhawk; if not a Robin, perhaps a Bucky instead!

[petronelle.livejournal.com]

I already have my Nighthawk-sidekick ship, thanks.

Also, I can't pull off anything resembling Eminem.

I meant the scale armor, yes. It's lovely.

[impactbomb.livejournal.com]

augh ack oh lord nhdsalvfkldl;ghlkhljhsh

*resumes wanting your brain FROM A SAFE DISTANCE*

[rubynye.livejournal.com]

You remember the hysterics I had at the idea?

This is me, stealing a minute from work, having those hysterics all over again in a repressed, underground-earthquake kind of way.

[buggery.livejournal.com]

I can't pull off anything resembling Eminem.

But you have all that RL experience with um, urban speech patterns!

It's lovely.

::beams::

[buggery.livejournal.com]

::steeples fingers::

[buggery.livejournal.com]

Um... is it wrong if I'm *picturing* the "repressed, underground-earthquake" hysterics? With epicenters and shockwaves and -- um.

::in my bunk::

[holli.livejournal.com]

YAY. Nighthawk NEEDS a Sparrowhawk Robin little blond boy.

[katarik.livejournal.com]

That's. Um.

Dude, that's really kind of scary, in a perfect way. And such a *Timmy*. With deeply terrifying eyes.

[katarik.livejournal.com]

OMG ICON. *flaily lusty hands*

Where did you get that art?!?

[buggery.livejournal.com]

http://lestoil.net -- like the keyword says, lest I forget, because wow, he deserves the credit!

There are more Les Toil icon blanks still available here, if you would like a zaftig lovely for your own icon set.

[buggery.livejournal.com]

I'm *saying*.

[buggery.livejournal.com]

The eyes are all Nighthawk. I just ...um. Put them on a tiny boy.

[katarik.livejournal.com]

*grabbity*

I do not currently have room in my icon set for another icon, and I may well have to change that. Because nngh.

[katarik.livejournal.com]

Your current icon is not helping your position be any more defensible, I will simply mention this.

Also, holy crap, Timmy, what *is* it with you and Batman Nighthawk?

[red-eft.livejournal.com]

*snorts* Dear god, that's terrifying.

(Also, hi! It's good to see you posting again!)

[katarik.livejournal.com]

P.S. I have just realized that I should not post when I am on anything even resembling medication, because rereading means that I facepalm.

I do in fact know that it is not Timmy in your icon, it is Dick. I was merely staring at the picture again and hiding.

[thecaelum.livejournal.com]

Oh god *dies* This is both scary and side-splittingly funny, along with being a damned fine image manipulation. You utterly win.
