i was always very inspired by hilow's @theobligatedklutz works, be it meta or anything! their willex vampire au was one of my faves and the accompaining hunter rayleb fic was SO fun!! so here's some doodles from 2021 i never shared.. with added rayleb comic i cleaned up that was in sketch form for agesss. i dont think hilow is active anymore in fandom but i remember their fics so fondly and they were such a wonderful part of jatp fandom meta and fic!! <3
A little gift back to ryn and the jatp community; I wrote this years ago but it was a scene from an important arc from Hunter that I never revealed to anyone. An excerpt from unpublished but outlined Chapter 9 from the vamp verse vault. Caleb, a father, a lover and most remarkably, a human:
Julie sits there, huddled next to her brother, looking all of seventeen and helpless as Caleb hulks over them with his arms stretched out to catch every bullet meant for the kids. There’s crimson seeping through the light purple of Caleb’s tee, soaked in so much blood that it paints Julie’s vision red. Wispy smoke rising from where the bullets are lodged into his back. Julie wraps her fingers around the cuff of Caleb’s jeans and tugs, her chin quivering and tears streaming down her face, softly calling out his name.
She sounds so childlike, it pulls Caleb out of the pain-induced daze he’s fallen into because that’s not what Julie sounds like. She gives him hell like it’s her hobby. She is not supposed to sound so little, so hurt. Is she hurt?
Caleb takes a shuddering breath, unscrews his face in some semblance of calm and regards both Julie and Carlos with squinted eyes, looking over them for any injuries and only stopping when he’s satisfied.
“Are you- are you both alright?” He asks just to make sure.
Carlos gapes, looks at the blood dripping and collecting in a puddle around his feet incredulously. “Are we okay? Caleb-”
Caleb swiftly cuts him off, turning his head over his shoulder like he’s heard a sound. “They are coming.”
He glances at the two Molinas at his feet, holding onto each other and looking so brittle, so terrified, and hopes he’s right in his decision, hopes Ray will forgive him for putting his kids in danger. Hopes Willie won’t hate him again for creating more messes than he can clean.
He swallows dryly and his eyes harden with something akin to his usual tireless resolve. “I need you to run.”
“No. I'm not leaving-,” Julie shakes her head, her white knuckled grip in the fabric of his pants tightens impossibly like that’ll change his mind. Like Julie can convince him to let her stay and fight.
It’s too late, there are too many of them. Vampires and hunters alike converge on them, glass crunching under their boots as they step in through the gaping wall where the window once was. All poised and ready to strike. Caleb turns on his feet, swaying slightly, but too stubborn to drop dead. And that’s when Julie and Carlos get a full view of his back. The back of his shirt is entirely saturated, almost blackened with blood, leaving his shirt in wet tatters. Julie takes in a shallow dry heave in, tightening her fingers around Carlos' wrist. Something haunted settles over both the Molinas' eyes. It doesn’t make sense to them how this man is standing right now because he should be dead and on the floor, pooling in his own blood. Yet he stands there on his feet like a cracked, shockingly sturdy wall between the enemy and them.
Caleb spots Vivian fronting the group and he knows he can't let him get any closer. Not close to his kids — he doesn't even get to reflect on the fact that he's embraced them so completely he's willing to die for them.
He throws both hands up, palms facing the bastards who think they can rip apart the only people he loves dearly. Caleb is ready to burn the world down just to protect them. Even if it's the last thing he does in his miserably, infinite life.
For a second, Carlos thinks Caleb is surrendering and he never took the man as someone who could but then- Then, every single person in Caleb’s proximity save for Julie and Carlos bring their hands up over their temples and scream bloody murder as if their heads are about to explode. Julie is pretty sure she’s never seen this extent of Caleb’s power but he always did say memories could be powerful and painful. And it shows in the way the chaos in front of her unfolds. Caleb pivots his head over his shoulder, looks over at the two of them with unrelenting determination.
“Julie, Carlos, run. Now.” A line of red drips from his nose, cascades onto his lip but he keeps his arms up. “Take care of each other. Get to your dad-”
He grunts in pain, stumbling back and throwing his head towards the back door urgently to get them moving. Julie hesitates but looks down at Carlos at her side and nods her head like she knows there’s no other way. Carlos scrambles up, stays frozen there for a second. Horrified and scared. And Caleb wishes he could do something to provide him some semblance of courage. He can't. So instead, he prays to a God that has refused him; to protect these kids, to get them to safety. "Go. Carlos. Go! Protect your sister."
There’s no time and Julie is pulling Carlos away before he can say anything more. The last thing they see before they stumble out the back door is Caleb falling to his knees, huffs of pained breaths falling from his mouth and vampires slamming his body into the floor to incapacitate him. They don't see the way the leader– Vivian – looks at their retreating backs with murder in his eyes. They don’t catch the way Caleb pulls his head up from the floor, catching the drag of Vivian’s gaze over the backdoor and desperately hissing out, "You've got me. You've won. Vivian, don't go after them. Do not-"
///// Yes, the rescue in my head did have Ray smacking Caleb upside the head and yelling at him. And then yeah, he patches him up.
“What part of we are in this together was hard to understand, you self-sacrificing idiot?”
“They were in the house, Ray.”
“You should’ve run with the kids!”
“You know I couldn’t…they’d give chase.” Caleb knows if it came down to it, Ray would want his kids safe. “I could not…”
“Caleb…you’re not expendable. You’re precious to me. Don’t you understand?”
At this point, Caleb understands too well. That’s why he does what he does. Why he did what he did.
A jatp x school spirits crossover for day 6 of @jatp-week : Monday Mix <3
I've been wanting to draw Julie and the Phantoms characters meeting School Spirits characters for a while and now I did it!! Alex and Charley have so much in common, they're so beloved <33 also Rhonda would get really mad once she finds out about all the stuff Julie's ghosts can do, while she is stuck in her old highschool and unable to change anything in the world of the living... I really want to draw more for this crossover but for now this is it :>

Carrie’s life is falling apart. Nick broke up with her and then fell off Earth, her dad is acting beyond weird, Julie is insufferable, and everything reminds her just how alone she really is.

Five times Alex was Carrie’s friend, and one time she was his.

Sky High is a two year school where students with superpowers (or superpowered parents) come to develop their powers and learn how to use them for good.
The school has two tracks- Hero and Hero Support
In the Hero track, students learn the valuable skills it takes to save the world from imminent danger!
In the Hero Support track, students train to be loyal, helpful sidekicks to their heroes!
At the beginning of the year, all new students go through Power Placement where they show off their abilities to determine which track they will be in.
We are excited to be starting the new year with you and we hope you enjoy your time here at Sky High!
@jatp-week and @thesunwillart have inspired me to get back into my @ask-jatp-skyhigh-au !
so i will try to keep updating it and please please please ask questions! doesn’t matter if you’ve seen sky high or not! (though you definitely should watch it it’s a great movie)
sky high au!! tho not really an active fandom, i watched sky high again recently and been throwing around this au with essie ! aaaaand it was fun to do more mid-2000s styles for the gang since the movie is from 2005 :D
alex, luke, and reggie are sidekicks at sky high and julie, flynn, willie are heroes! there's a whole plot about caleb being the (villain) headmaster and he's secretly recruitung villains from the hero class (like willie) to help him become more powerful. sidekick alex kind of messes up the plan when he falls (melts) for willie tho ;)
powers:
julie can talk to the dead/ get energy from them, flynn has invisibility and shielding powers, willie can summon objects and also make them spark, alex melts into goo, luke can turn into a guinea pig, and reggie glows. lol
For @jatp-week day 3: Look to the Future Friday, I of course had to draw a willex reunion + a willex kiss. They deserved this and I deserved to see it!!!
(Please appreciate this one cause I love it so much, it makes me so happy, genuinely I'm so proud of this, it brings me so much joy!!!)

“I think I promised you something special for tonight,” Willie whispered, his eyes full of promises.
Alex gulped, heart speeding up, but he still tried for a light tone: “Yes, I do think you mentioned something like that.” But then Alex frowned and added: “It’s not necessary though, you know that, right? I’m okay with whatever you want.”
Willie pulled back a little to look at Alex.
“Whatever I want?” He wagged his eyebrows. “Dangerous.”
Alex coughed, cheeks heating up. “Okay that—I mean …”
Chapter Two of the Willex Red, White, Royal Blue Paris AU is up!! Be warned, here be smut ;D
Posting this for Day 6 of @jatp-week: Monday Mix. Because yes it's been five years but the only other fandom getting me excited for a while there was actually just Red, White & Royal Blue and the first thing I did was come up with a willex au. Naturally ;D
You can find the whole series this fic belongs to here: Royal Pink
The majority of my fics are based on songs/lyrics, so I started putting any songs that had 'ghosts', 'phantoms', 'haunted', etc in its lyrics/title/band names into a playlist for inspiration. Way more songs include these things than I realized! I am letting them be found naturally instead of searching out titles on spotify, but I'll keep adding to this as I find new songs! :)

It's no longer @jatp-week's Shoutout Saturday because unfortunately stuff happened and I couldn't post yesterday but I thought this is still a perfect opportunity to give a shoutout to all the amazing people who have enriched my fandom experience over the last five years.
Being in this fandom hasn't always been easy (*cough* blacklist *cough*) but you guys made it all worth it. I can definitely say this fandom changed the trajectory of my life. It made me write more fics than I've ever written for a fandom before: 100 FICS!!! (okay the number is a bit wobbly because some of those are just ficlet collections but shhh, three ficlets in a trenchcoat are basically a fic, right?). And I met so so many cool people I can't even count them.
I hope I haven't forgotten anyone but I've talked with A LOT of people these last five years!! If I have forgotten you on this list, I am truly sorry. Feel free to drop into my inbox with a coffee and a complaint and we can chat about it ;D
Extra shoutout to anyone who has ever left a kind comment on one of my (100!!!) fics whose tumblr name I don't know/couldn't find. I promise I appreciate every single one of them and you!!
Putting the actual list under a readmore (in alphabetical order) because, as I said, it's A LOT of people from these five years. But if you're on this list, no matter if we've only chatted once or have hung out in a Discord server for years, if you've moved onto other fandoms (finished your jatp business ;D) or if we still share this fandom, if you've never been in the fandom but supported me or my fics, whether we're still friends or have drifted into different directions, whether you've read one of my fics or several: I really appreciate our interactions and the time we've spent/still spend together <3 <3 <3
Any post about music in jatp fic has to start with @pearlcaddy who introduced me to the most music/bands and inspired/influenced my own writing a LOT. Jukebox the Ghost, AJR, The Score and FIDLAR are all in my music rotation now but I’m gonna give a special shout out to You’re Such A by Hailee Steinfeld and the alternate lyrics Luke/pearlcady makes up to apologize to Julie after screwing up in the fic Searching for a Piece of Art because it’s hilarious and so SO clever.
I can no longer hear the song If the World was Ending by JP Saxe feat. Julia Michaels without thinking about the American Idol AU love me for the hell of it by alexjulies (crueltether) where Julie and Luke audition separately but then get teamed up and they sing this song near the end and it’s just Ugh! The way I can see it in my head.
I “discovered” Gracie Abrams because of the song Risk who two of my favorite writers used in fics.
Heard the risk is drownin’, but I’m gonna take it by fangirl-in-a-trenchcoat aka @thephantomchronicles.
And The Playlist by @phantomxarmy which has a TON of great songs in it.
@phantomxarmy also used Chapell Roan’s The Giver in their fic ain’t no country boy quitter so now when that comes up in my queue, I picture Julie killing it on the fiddle.
The best Rick Roll ever done in a fic was done by @missjoolee in Always Come Take Me Down.
A few other songs that make me think of jatp include Like Real People Do that I used in the last fic in my Found Family Fluff series and Line By Line by JP Saxe feat. Maren Morris that feels like the Jukest of Juke songs and I used it as their wedding vows in the very last fic in the Falling Toward the Future series.
So many songs give me, have given me inspiration and I love learning about new artists and songs from every new and old fic I read by all of you.
