Belated SLASH CONTEST numero uno

by David M Willis on March 27, 2012 at 12:44 am
Posted In: Blog

This is not the belated SLASH CONTEST entry I mentioned previously.  This is a second belated SLASH CONTEST entry.  It’s by a folk named Reese, and it involves Joe x Ethan.  Suffice to say, if I’d gotten this about a month earlier, it’s very likely it would have taken first prize.  I mean, look at it.  Jesus, man, look at it.

YOU ARE WELCOME.

Meanwhile, I am told the Maryland Marriage Allegiance is placing ads on my site.  Yes, you glorious anti-gay marriage jerks, please, give me all your money, so that I can afford to continue publishing images like these on the Interwebs.   Give me all your money and I will spend it at Starbucks.

SLASH CONTEST: The Circle of Life

by David M Willis on March 19, 2012 at 8:23 pm
Posted In: Blog

The SLASH CONTEST was inspired by some art by my wife of Billie x Sal.  And so it ends thusly, again with Billie x Sal!  The final entry is by ZabAbcd, who did this on MS Paint and Excel.  Because that’s just how hardcore ZabAbcd is, dammit.    And now the circle is complete!

There is one more entry, a belated one, and one that did not strictly fall within the guidelines, which will be coming later.  And in the meantime, Dumbing of Age fan art is always welcome!  Thank you everyone for making my day 21 times over.  I hope everyone else enjoyed these wonderful pieces as much as I did!

Seed of SLASH CONTEST

by David M Willis on March 18, 2012 at 7:05 pm
Posted In: Blog

Man, we’re almost through all these!

Maycroft sent this art of Mike x Joyce, wherein Joyce is a little friskier than usual.  Frisky enough to blast the angry eyebrows off Mike, anyway!  And don’t forget to check out those menu items.

Felix continues today’s Joyce theme with his Joyce x Billie submission!  He asked if towels technically counted as clothing, and apparently they do.  Billie’s wearing her glasses even in the shower, ‘cuz she knows what we like.

Dark of the SLASH CONTEST

by David M Willis on March 15, 2012 at 10:51 pm
Posted In: Blog

It’s Dina Day in SLASH CONTEST land!  Our first entry is Dina x Mike by Ben Pung, who’s actually the guy who sent me the first entry!  And it’s a very darling entry.  I love how Mike is looking over his shoulder as he approaches Dina.  Damn that bottle, why’d it have to point that way!  I also adore Dina’s dinosaur and her “RAR” shirt.

And this is a second entry by Phillipe Gagnon!  You saw his Galasso x Jason art yesterday, but today he’s tossing us Dina x Sarah!  (Have those two even met?)  Who cares, ‘cuz yowza.  Who knew Dina had it in  her.  And on the Fourth of July, even!  What a scamp.

The SLASH CONTEST rises!

by David M Willis on March 14, 2012 at 9:35 pm

Phew! Computer’s back from the shop, so I can start flooding you with more SLASH CONTEST art! And finally, some dude on dude! …both with Jason. It’s the bow tie, isn’t it.

Yes, it’s Jason x Galasso!  Feast your eyes on this, courtesy of Phillipe Gagnon!  Y’know, it says “licky-style,” but I don’t see any tongues, Phillipe!

Though never let it be said that Galasso is not a romantic.  He came prepared with flowers!

And Jen Aside has given  us Jason x Professor Rees, the yet-unseen math professor!  And, of course, the real winner of this pairing, the otherwise stoic Sal Walkerton.  She ships them hard!

It’s a little disheartening that in a “SLASH CONTEST,” there was so little actual slash!  Though it’s partly my fault for having so few male characters, I suppose.  I mean, when you have to resort to Galasso…

The plantation burning reminds me of when the residential school burnt down in Shubenacadie. I was very young. Not understanding why we were all there watching a scary looking building burning. Cars lined up all over both sides of the road. It seemed like the entire rez population (1)
