Justin: I don’t know what it is, I-

Griffin: We’re killing fashion, one shirt at a time. Take that.

Justin: I will, I - so, so sue me! It’s October in West Virginia, I’d like to live on island time for a day.

Griffin: You…

Justin: Cut me some slack.

Griffin: I have Spotify, open right now on my computer. Do you want me to blast you? [holding back laughter] Do you want me to put you on blast? ‘Cause I’ve got your history right here in the sidebar:

my dumb late night thoughts (after watching nothing but milo murphy’s law for three days straight)

TIME TRAVEL IN THE PHINEAS AND FERB UNIVERSE

we know that dr.doof is credited with inventing time travel that being said we already know that he wasn’t actually the first one to do it. phineas and ferb time travelled in “it’s about time” and “quantum boogaloo”

more importantly doof’s time machines also require an element called “time juice” but phineas and ferb’s didn’t. making it more efficient and invented earlier (by 10 year olds) the only downside to phineas and ferbs is that it requires electricity

important note *they both travel through the same time stream (as seen in quantum boogaloo)*

i don’t have a conclusion or anything i just thought it was interesting.

It should also be noted that the first person who invented a time machine was said to be a man named Xavier Onassis, as noted in "It's About Time!", and Phineas and Ferb merely fixed it with their own technology (maybe using electricity instead of Time Juice?). We actually see him manage to travel through time in "Quantum Boogaloo", arriving 20 years from present day.

Now, Xavier Onassis is said in "It's About Time" to be from the 19th century. This is very important.

In Milo Murphy's Law episode "The Race", Cavendish and Dakota (two other time travelers) accidentally travel back in time to a past Danville: a Bermuda Triangle for time travelers because the sheriff there is a Murphy, with Murphy's Law causing the time vehicles of other time travelers to not work.

Now here's the thing: the specific year Dakota and Cavendish traveled to is 1875... which is in the 19th century.

This perfectly aligns with Xavier Onassis having made his own time machine.

From these tidbits of info, we can conclude that Xavier Onassis was inspired by the time travelers stuck there in Danville of 1875, and wanted to make his own time machine... but kind of failed to complete it, either due to lack of Time Juice, or due to Sheriff Murphy being in the vicinity.

This would also explain his question to future Candace in "Quantum Boogaloo", about whether corn dogs exist: he was probably told about corn dogs by one of the stranded time travelers.

We know that he eventually manages to travel through time in "Quantum Boogaloo", which would mean either this whole thing created a split imeline, or he must've created a second version later on. Either way, for this to work, he probably borrowed some Time Juice from another time traveler, or tested his time machine far away from Sheriff Murphy (similarly to how Dakota and Cavendish escaped 1875).

As a bonus note, the time machine Doofenshmirtz creates as Professor Time looks incredibly similar to Xavier Onassis's prototype.

This means that either Doof inspired his design on Xavier's... or Xavier inspired his design on the famed Professor Time's, which he may have been told about by one of the stranded time travelers as well.

You’re a daycare worker, watching over toddlers, when the imminent end of the world is announced. It becomes increasingly clear none of the kids’ parents are going to show up as the end inches nearer.

[Audio starts]

“Mom has been texting me for the last twenty minutes. She wants me to come home. It’s a four hour drive, when the roads are clear, and from what I hear everybody is trying to get somewhere right now. There’s no telling if I’d even-”

“Everybody else has left. All the other kids were picked up, the other staff left. They gave me all the keys. I promised to stay and wait for as long as- well. Even if some of the parents show up, I guess some of them won’t, so I’m just waiting. Until.”

[Clears throat.]

“A couple of people came after everybody left. Peter, one of Aidan’s fathers, gave me three hundred dollars for staying. What am I going to do with money? It’s- anyway. I kind of get it. He wanted to give me something.”

[Audio ends]

[Audio starts]

“They’re all between 2 and 4.” Sniff. “They’re so little. Too little to really- maybe if they were older, I’d have to tell them something. But um. I’m just- trying to stay calm and keep them happy and occupied. I think that’s the best thing, right now.”

[Heaving breaths.]

“I normally use this recorder to help me remember stuff. It’s just, uh, habit to talk to it. I don’t know. They’re napping, right now. I’ve got the baby monitor, they know that if they talk into it, I’ll come, so-”

[Sobbing.]

[Audio ends]

[Audio starts]

“Mom keeps texting, so I blocked her. I sent her a text telling her goodbye, first, but. I do. But these kids need me.”

[Sniff.]

“I tried calling their parents again, but I can’t get anybody. It’s just busy signals. I called the firefighter station, 911. I can’t get through to anybody.”

[Shaky breath.]

“I went out into the yard. Um, I think they can play. It’s nice out, and you can’t really see it yet. Little bit of a glimmer, if they ask I’ll just tell them it’s a plane, but it’s nice out and we’ve got hours before-”

[Murmuring child’s voice, indistinguishable.]

[Audio ends]

After a long journey, you finally reach the dark lord’s lair. Then your companion, who you met shortly after starting your quest, opens the door and says: “It’s nice to be at home again, come in I’ll make some tea.”

“Ah-ha!” I raised my fist triumphantly, “yes, this fortress will make an excellent home when we slay the dark lord Chaelim.” My smile stretched from ear to ear as I stepped inside what was immediately apparent to be a massive banquet hall. “Good on you for smelling dried tea leaves all the way from here, your senses are as impeccable as always my dear Michael!” I strutted forward with my chest proudly puffed and with my hand rested on my trusty rapier. Its holy light let an ever pleasant warmth rest upon us in spite of the chilly environment.

“Uhm, you don’t think something’s wrong?” A faint breeze caught in Michael’s ranger cloak as he swallowed hard and froze in place.

“Oh, well I do suppose this fortress is quite understaffed.” I stopped to look around the area. For such an egocentric villain, one would think he would keep his castle in pristine condition, but dust covered every table, and mold peeked out from under the carpets. “I uh, suppose we have felled all of his undead soldiers? Perhaps his slaves are attending to him personally somewhere else?”

“You….” Michael’s voice trailed off as he took a stiff step forward. “Have you really not put it all together?”

“Put what together?” I cocked an inquisitive eyebrow.

“Whenever I left to scout ahead, you would always end up in traps.” Michael’s eyes drifted down to his feet. “No matter how well we’d try to sneak into or out of someplace, we would always get jumped.”

“Well, no one’s perfect my dear friend!” I chuckled heartily and put a hand on his shoulder. “We are almost at the end, do not waver now at the memories of past failures.” I shook him lightly and patted him on the back as we continued our walk towards the kitchen.

Tea time was eerily quiet. We had located a small bowl of imported Pu-erh tea, an expensive brew that was more in line with what we had learned about the dark lord. Michael had brewed it to perfection, just the right time at just the right temperature to bring out the rich fermented flavor of it. We enjoyed the fleeting moment of bliss, though the anxiety of silence still weighed heavily upon us.

“I can’t take this anymore!” Michael shot up from his seat and threw his cup to the ground with a loud cracking sound. My eyes drifted to the shattered tea cup, millions of tiny pieces all scattered about, leaving nothing of the floral design that had been there before.

“Do not loose your cool, you’ll give away our posi-”

“SHUT UP!” Michael’s voice cracked as he took a step back and clutched the sides of his head. “Did you never suspect me?” I stayed silent, as per his request to shut up. “Did you ever think that maybe I’m the one you were sent to kill?”

“Now that’s just prepos-”

“You are so stupid!” He cut me off with a vicious growl. “Chaelim? Michael? It’s the same set of letters!” His fingers dug into his skull, his face grew a dark red as his eyes shrunk. “I gave you every opportunity to figure it out and you just kept smiling at me!”

“Michael…” my voice trailed off as the threads within my mind began to tie together.

“Why?” His ranger cloak began to melt into an inky substance that coated his body. “Why couldn’t you see me?” The black ichor morphed into flowing dark robes. Symbols of grimm magic dotted the sleeves, as well as swirling runes that indicated illusion magic. Michael’s grizzled features began to fade, his square jaw replaced with a smooth oval shape, his slicked back hair contorted into long locks that stretched past his shoulders. Lastly, the bonetooth necklace that he wore, a gift from his mother he had said, was now replaced with a pair of diamond rings.

“So then, you’re him.” I stated firmly, yet a hint of airiness revealed my disbelief.

“Did you ever suspect me?” His golden eyes were the same hue as always, yet now they seemed more hollow.

“Never.” I stood from my stool and stretched out my hand. “I would like to think…” I stared at my outstretched hand as I struggled to find the words.

“You would like to think that Michael was real?”

“No,” I shook my head solemnly, “I would like to think that you’re truly Michael.”

“Michael is long gone…” he too stared at my hand, his boney hands started to loosen their grip around his head. “He died with his parents, the phantoms that ride from here are the only echoes of his existence.”

“The undead legions, those were your servants when they were alive, yes?” The rapier at my side felt heavier than normal, causing me to shift my balance to my other leg.

“Put your hand down, you know what we have to do.” Michael sniffled as his hands fell to his side.

“We do not have to fight.” My hand lowered and balled into a tight fist.

“Meet me in my throne room, there we will finish this charade.” Darkness swept over my vision as smoke exploded out from his robe.

“Michael, wait!” I lunged forward and tried to grab him, yet when the smoke cleared my hand had only caught fleeting vapors.

These are excellent notes for tv boarding.

This really makes me appreciate all the work that tv boarding artists put in to make these awesome shows for us. How amazing.

so i played GRIS this month and since i am still highly obsessed with SU with no sign of stopping, i imagined a mash between these two things. i interpreted the game like building yourself back up from sth awful, and the shape and color language reminded me of Steven Universe, so i wanted to think about that a little in art form. not to mention the game is gorgeous and i wanted to try my hand at using that style for SU fanart. the style evolved little by little as i kept drawing these :3

Was Lion still a secret from the rest of the Crystal Gems?

Avatar

Yes, he was.

I see a lot of people say ‘oh, no one commented on lion, I guess the gems must have known about him all along!’ 

Which is... a very odd conclusion to jump to given

1) They are literally in the middle of battle with Lapis, and the entire time I tried to make it clear that while Rose is hurriedly explaining things to Steven, the other CGs are busy fighting

and 2) Rose is... infamous for her love of animals and nature. Like, she literally loved moss so much she bodily carried it up the hill to bloom every spring. Do you really think that adopting a few wild animals is outside of her scope of Standard Rose Shenanigans? She probably brings home a crocodile every other year. She is constantly befriending venomous snakes. She never learns the lesson about racoons. 

Do you really think the gems - especially Pearl, who KNOWS Rose is like this, has always been like this - would bat an eye at Yet Another Addition To Rose’s List Of Animal Friends? The gem is a walking wildlife reserve. It would be weirder if she DIDN’T befriend a lion at The Most Inopportune Moment.

And yes, many people will probably get on my case with ‘but in canon, Pearl was ANGRY when she found out Rose had a lion she didn’t know about!’ 

And yes, you’re right! But let’s zoom out for a moment. Pearl wasn’t angry about the lion! She was grief-stricken from Rose’s death, and hurt that she was being kept in the dark after having been presented with evidence of Rose hiding much more serious things from her! The outburst was never about Lion - it was about how special she had been to Rose, and how Steven was making it seem like she was just like the others - instead of an exception to the rule! 

In a world where Rose never passed away, showing up with a two ton pound of fur isn’t a reason for Pearl to “STOP THE PRESSES, PUT OUR LAPIS LAZULI ISSUE ON HOLD,  ROSE HAS TO FILL OUT A PET LOST AND FOUND FORM!” 

Rose being followed around by dangerous fauna is not a surprise. It’s a Tuesday.
