Randomly remembered that the german translation of Edge of Spider-Geddon (2018) made Parksborn unmistakenly canon (on Earth-44145 atleast, the dimension where Norman Osborn became Spider-Man) and I'm still absolutely baffled as to how they got away with that.
So this is the panel I'll be talking about:
This is a photo of my german copy of the comic next to the original ((sorry for the bad quality, took the picture in the middle of the night)):
It's actually a VERY small detail, you see, the translation is absolutely accurate EXCEPT. For the last THREE WORDS. They took the platonic "Love you, man" and turned it into a LITERAL "I <3 you". LISTEN, THAT'S NO WHERE NEAR BROMANCE, THAT IS STRAIGHT ROMANCE WITHOUT THE B. ESPECIALLY combined with the sentence before. "If there is an afterlife, I will do my best to tell you somehow... I love you." That is so raw, that is so emotional, istg if you don't know german, you probably don't understand how insane this is. "Ich liebe dich" isn't used for your bros, that's reserved for romantic partners and maybe MAYBE rlly close family but that's a BIG maybe bc most rather use "Ich hab dich lieb" as a variant of ily for family members. And then the little red heart. Like wtf man. I mean I'm still not over this 5 years later, it's that amazing.
In a world where Neil Hargrove does not exist or is out of their lives or is a better man, Billy and Max has a better relationship, like real siblings.
Which means that the first time she has her new friends over at her house, Billy crashes their little party in the most obnoxious way. Maybe they're hanging out in the living room and playing a game or something, and Billy (dressed in workout shorts and socks only, no shirt, and sweaty and gross from yardwork or basketball or lifting weights) barges in like they're not even there, spreading out on the couch and turning the TV on, volume loud.
"What the fuck Billy?!" Max says, angrily, and tries to pull him up.
But of course he won't budge. "What?"
"Get out!"
"Nah. My show's on."
"I have FRIENDS over!"
He watches them with an unimpressed look. "And I see you've somehow managed to find people even more nerdy than you, Maxi-pad. Well done."
She yells in frustration, trying again to pull him off the couch, but she can barely move him. He sticks his socked foot in her face and laughs when she screams in disgust.
"Billy!! You're such an asshole!"
"And you're a shitbird. Ow!" She claws at him but he just laughs even as he tries to swat her away. "Oooh, is little Maxine trying to show off in front of her new friends?"
Snarling, Max grabs a pillow and tries to choke him with it, but he easily pushes her off so she ends up on the floor, red-faced with anger and glaring daggers. Billy grins at her all teeth, and makes a show out of stretching out in the couch in all his barely-clothed glory.
Max turns to the Party, who has been watching with wide eyes, and huffs "Let's go to my room" before stomping off.
Billy smirks at them as the boys give him a wide berth on their way out, and when the door to Max's room slams shut he yells "Keep the door open, Maxine."
"FUCK YOU BILLY!" is the answer.
"Think of JESUS!"
"GO TO HELL!"
He sinks back into the couch and turns his attention to the TV, but only for a minute or so. Then he gets up and goes to take a shower. He only went in there to mess with her, anyway.
(She gets her revenge when he has a boy over, later. And whenever Billy has his boyfriend in the car when she's there. And whenever she runs into any of Billy's friends. She has many embarrassing stories about Billy, after all. No one knows better than her how lame he can be.)
(Or, just, Billy and Max being annoying siblings, without the hate and fear and resentment. I want that for them. Annoying obnoxious needling gross older brother Billy and seething frustrated loud conniving little sister Max)
"Yeah, I wish I'd been, I wish I'd been, a teen, teen idle
Wish I'd been a prom queen, fighting for the title
Instead of being sixteen and burning up a bible
Feeling super, super, super suicidal"
(Marina and the diamonds - Teen Idle)
Knock knock!! Reverse trick or treat 🍫
I’m handing out Billy’s candy cigarettes this year :)

P.o.V.: Ohm
So… I just might have a small crush on Bryce. Just a little one. Ok, so I may have fallen in love with my best friend. No one has to know, right?
Today, I feel like playing some Uno with the gang. Delirious, Cartoonz and to my utter happiness, Bryce agree. It is Delirious and Cartoonz versus Bryce and me. Per usual, Delirious is up to his tricks.
…
“Take this you son of a bitch! Boom! UNO!” Delirious insanely laughs as he places a ’+2’ card on top of the deck.
“Noooo!” Bryce yells playfully as he is forced to draw two extra cards. His outburst is followed by his trademark giggle.
So cute…
“How could you Delirious? I thought we were friends!” Bryce screams comically.
“No! We only have each other!” Cartoonz interrupts.
"Yeah!” Del agrees. "We only have each other, brother!”
“Oh, yeah? Well then…!” I exclaim.
I pause for a moment for Bryce to play his next card.
“Bryce, you got me?” I ask.
“Yeah Ohm!” He confirms.
“UNO BITCHES! WE WIN!” I yell with excitement.
"YESSS!” Bryce yells in victory.
“NOOOO!” yell the losers.
I barely hear the resounding “no” from the other team, I’m too busy focusing on Bryce.
My Brycie-poo is happy that we won~
…
“Of course I’m happy that we won! Uno is so fun!” Bryce giggles for the third time.
God, he’s so adorable!
I wonder what expression he’s making right now? I wish I could see him, instead of having to wait for his uploads. His adorable face. His giggling face. His “o” face…
Wait..
WHAT?!
Let’s save those thoughts for the bedroom.
“Ohm, are you happy about your precious ‘Brycie-poo’?” Toonz mocks and I feel the heat creeping up my face.
“Um.. yeah,” I say still embarrassed at how good his guess was.
“Ohm, are you guys fucking again?” Del asks egging on my embarrassment.
Oh shit! Okay, play it cool Ryan. Use this opportunity to flirt with him!
“No, but I’d love to feel 'dat ass in ma’ hands!” I say with conviction.
Though it’s not a lie.
“Yeah and 'dat ass on your d*ck!” Cartoonz yells mockingly.
“How’d you know?” I joke back.
Ok, it’s cool. I’m making them laugh and I get to flirt with Brycie~
“Ohm, no! Just no!” Bryce says giggling.
“Ohm yes!” I nearly moan. “That’s how you’ll sound all night!” I say and start laughing because I cannot control myself.
“I’m uncomfortable. I need an adult. I need an adult!” Bryce exclaims and laughs.
Bryce is so innocent. That’s what I love about him. I laugh and tease him more until I’m sure he’s blushing on his side of the screen.
“Ohm seriously! Stop!” He yells.
I laugh at how he tries to end the flirting. Still, I can’t let it end here now can I?~
“Why? You don’t like me talking about our sexy times?~” I ask teasingly.
“I-“, Bryce starts but he is cut off by Delirious before he can reply.
Damn, just when we were getting to the good part!
“Well, Luke and I are having a sleepover tomorrow, so good night you two!” Del says, followed by Cartoonz.
“Yeah, good night you fuckers!” I reply jokingly.
I love those guys.
“And have fun with that 'sleepover’,” Bryce adds, putting emphasis on the last word mockingly.
Del and Toonz say their parting comments and get offline.
Yeah, I really do love those guys. But not as much as I love Brycie~
HAPPY HALLOWEEN Y'ALL!!!
And a call to all warriors, to line the fronts...
SKELETON WAR!!! 💀
My ask blog is open!! ^^
Greetings out there! ^w^
I have finally opened an ask blog for the SandersSides but also for my sides(who I will introduce you to soon enough^^)
In this blog the SandersSides are known to my sides, and vice versa. They’re friends, even tho I never met Thomas in rl (and he probably doesn’t know of my existence). It is my head canon(fantasy/Wishful thinking).
So all that’s left to say is… Pleas send me your questions/requests ^^ and I will do my best!
Okay, yes please! Idea:
Mr. H's Treehouse is a local kids show (talking in the area of like San Diego to Los Angeles). Meeting him for the first time in person, Billy can't help but notice something's wrong with Steve, who may not be all sunshine, as he gives himself.
During recess, Steve takes a moment to breath: these meet and greets are great! To see all those shining eyes he helped to inspire and guide- but he's sad. Because this current season in filming will be the last season. The show's getting cut because of budget. Which gets Billy's attention; the sunshine, who's brooding by himself. And they get to talk... Which admittedly is really bad, because behind those kind brown eyes and great ass is a nuisanced and interesting personality. Shit.
The softest Harringrove brain worm that’s ever invaded my head where Billy is the sole guardian of his little step-sister Max. (very little, like 6 years old little. And Billy is 25ish, so it’s a big enough age gap where everyone naturally assumes he’s just a single dad.) And Steve is the host of a dorky yet successful kids tv show called Mr H’s Treehouse (think Mr. Rogers) that Max is OBSESSED with.
She makes Billy watch it with her every single evening, like clockwork. Now, Billy would never admit this, not even with a fucking gun to his head—but he kind of starts to look forward to watching it with her. But it isn’t his fault! The host is, pardon his French, fucking hot as shit.
So every night he gets home from work, drops whatever take-out garbage he got for them onto their TV dinner trays, and parks himself in front of the idiot box while Mr. H from Mr. H’s Treehouse comes on and teaches him and Max about the power of friendship and sharing and eating vegetables or whatever the hell else he’s on about that week. It’s stupid, but it kind of becomes cathartic. Like Billy can just shut his brain off and stuff his face and watch the bright colors and listen to the gentle music and let the stresses of his life fade away—at least for that half-hour anyway. The fact that Mr. H has an ass Billy could bounce a quarter off of… well, it doesn’t hurt.
But what happens when there’s a meet and greet/Story-Time being hosted at Max’s elementary school? Well, Billy’s not a complete douchebag, so of course he has to take her! It has nothing to do with the fact that he also maybe wants to meet this tv host who’s all soft sweaters and pretty brown eyes that Billy’s maybe been fantasizing about for the past year and a half. That’s not it! He’s here for his nerdy little twerp step-sister, nothing more.
(Spoiler, it’s something more.)
