1) Spiderman: into the spiderverse

Right back at you babe

i was drawing new twitter icons for me and the gf when i went completely overboard and drew it twice,

But once baby starts talking he doesn’t stop. Then, she has a talkative toddler who grows knotty black hair out of his head. No pinks or braids, but bugs and toy soldiers and a raggedy brown teddy bear. Maggie thinks he cries more than a boy should, even as young as he is. He’ll cry when he bites his tongue blabbering too fast, cry when teddy is missing for five minutes, cry when daddy is ten minutes late (she shouldn’t have taught him how to read the clock, she thinks.) He wails and Maggie wipes his tears and tries not to think about how she’d feel better if he was a girl. 

The crying slows when he’s 7 and 8 with his first real pack of friends: Billy and Stanley. They’re polite boys who sit on either side of Richie in front of the TV while Richie explosively impersonates the cartoons. He’s moved on from simply talking, now doing his “voices.” Went loved coming home and hearing Richie at the dinner table do his best voices, but he hadn’t heard Richie practicing all day like Maggie had. She tries not to get agitated, but finds herself saying “shh Richie,” in a harsher voice than she means to when she’s combing his hair and trying to watch the news. At 9, Richie makes another new friend. Smaller than the rest in their little group, she notices, but a million times snippier, rolling his eyes and hiding his giggles at Richie’s voices. He’s very polite to her “Yes, Mrs. Tozier. Thank you Mrs. Tozier.” But his voice shakes a little when he talks to her. Eddie comes over more than the other two and Mrs Tozier starts getting calls from one Sonia Kaspbrak. And it all clicks into place why Eddie’s a little afraid of her.
