Skrimm Stabbaskotch - Blog Posts

"The jaws that bite, the teeth that catch." Ft. Skrimm, Graveyard Jack, Jornir, Barnabos, and Taishen from Icebound.

(Based on one of yesterday's live Icebound episode questions: what would most of the Icebound crew look like from Crooked Moon or if they we're villainous - can't recall exact wording sorry)

Well I was going to draw the “why does ___ call you babygirl?” meme w/ taishen and skrimm but I couldn’t for the life of me figure out how to rationalise skrimm being able to be seen at the angle I started the drawing with! So here, have a taishen doodle on the house.

What can I say, I have a thing for morally dubious goblins! Sorry it’s just a sketch but I’m going on 3 cups of coffee and no sleep so it’s the best I got.

(Dubiously goblin deez nuts)

Skrimm and Queenie are The Siblings Ever

Icebound episode 12 and 13 spoilers

I feel like in Icebound the Avantris crew is just slightly less chaotic than, say, OUAW or Uprooted, but then they get kidnapped by Ogres and immediately decide to convince them they're gods from Ogre Heaven and come up with elaborate names and titles. I'm still in shock that Andy, after missing the previous session, wakes up as Skrimm and immediately ALSO tries to convince the ogres that he sees that he's a god, but with far less luck. How did they ALL do that?

I have watched less than an hour of Icebound but I already would die for all of these characters

Icebound Crew meets Technology

Aka Crow's headcanons about old people and social media

Skrimm - has an account on most platforms, but hardly posts on any of them. Likely has a private instagram or private Twitter he uses mostly to complain or make fun of his friends. Doesn't post at all on tiktok, but knows a few too many niche references to pretend he doesn't use it. Prefers shorts or reels but ultimately doesn't doomscroll as often as you'd think.

Queenie - has an account on most platforms like Skrimm, except she does post on a few of them. Mostly her tiktok and Instagram. She posts beekeeping videos and gardening tips, and people love her for her southern charm and raunchy sense of humor. Occasionally posts a hunting video with a really clickbait-y title for fun. Has a Tumblr!

Taishen - has a personal tiktok account he never posts on, and a Serenitea account thats almost entirely managed by Mei Li at this point. In turn, he runs his Facebook like the navy, ALWAYS updating it with new blends and all the fun he's having abroad.

Barnabos - only has Facebook and Twitter, only uses Facebook to keep track of his sailing buddies and Twitter to keep track of Skrimm. Only posts to reply to people, or to post ridiculously dangerous photos of sea monsters he's fighting

Jornir - barely knows how to use his camera app. If he has any social media, it's entirely Queenie's fault, and he never posts on it himself. If you look at his gallery it's full of pictures of birds, plants, the most gorgeous candid landscape shots you've ever seen, and blurry pictures of his friends. He has 4 photos of himself in there: one stealthily taken by Queenie, one properly taken by Taishen, and two accidental selfies that he hates. Has a Tumblr... Which is again Queenie's fault

(foot note: I don't use many of these, I'm basing them on the vibes of the sites back in like 2012 lol)

Hi Tumblr, have these two Icebound fics I wrote

I always forget I can post fics onto Tumblr. Anyway, have these two (both Taishen-centric for some reason)

(Spoilers for episodes 14/15-ish of Icebound, it diverges from canon but there's still some spoilers)

Make it up to you - word count: 2,162

AO3 Summary: "Ever since he messed up only a night or so ago by not keeping an eye on that child and falling asleep when he was supposed to be on watch, Taishen was struggling to find ways to make it up to them. It weighed on the back of his mind endlessly, repeating the disappointed statements of his friends' and his own regrets.

Now, however, Taishen realized he had a decision to make, and it wasn’t a difficult one anymore (not that it would have been before). His eyes were keenly watching the action, and could tell when a magical attack was about to strike, headed right for a distracted Skrimm.

He could make up for his mistake here and now. (Even if he almost dies in the process)"

In which I felt bad for Taishen having tried his best to save this child - the one job he was given while they were gone - and then his friends return and basically tell him what a bad job he did and he just forgets that he even tried and so I wanted to do something about it.

Implied character death, but it's temporary

(Spoilers for 27/28 of Icebound, but it diverts very quickly and changes nothing)

I'll Be Fine - word count: 2,679

AO3 Summary: "It’d barely been 30 minutes since they’d come to a decision. Jornir had left with Skrimm and Queenie after seeing something in his vision that he hadn’t elaborated on. Whatever it’d been, it had urged him to join them - though he’d been insistent on Taishen and especially Barnabos staying behind. And Taishen was more than alright with that. He was no medicine man like Jornir was, but he at least wanted to stick around to make sure that Barnabos was alright."

Aka, I needed an excuse to write about Barnabos and Taishen and so I wrote this for some reason. (Featuring more unnecessary canon divergence that changes nothing and is just for plot convenience!)

Scenes that get way funnier when you remember that Taishen still thinks that the 'fishing trips' are an innuendo

[VIDEO TRANSCRIPT:

Ketrastine: ...You are stupid. Dumb, even.

Skrimm: You don't have to look at me when you say that.

(laughter)

Ketrastine: (Stammers) It's just where my eyes went, I didn't mean–

Skrimm: I wouldn't know about that.

Mikey: Barnabos actually laughs.

Skrimm: Hey! Hey, Mr. 'Dreadwake', alright, we're still fighting, alright?!

Barnabos: Aye, alright Mr. Stabbaskotch.

Skrimm: And I want you to know too that I faked every single day of fishing we ever did together!

(Taishen gasps)

Barnabos: No, I know.

Skrimm: You didn't know. You didn't know.

Barnabos: You know how much fishing I've done, Mr. Stabbaskotch?

Skrimm: You didn't know.

Barnabos: ...Alright.

Skrimm (to Jornir): He– He didn't know.

(Mikey cackles)

Mini comfort comic, I had fun drawing Jornir with swoosh magic hehe

a very eloquent breakdown on my thoughts and feelings about various icebound dynamics I think about a lot bc I love them and I miss them and if I keep these in my head for too long I will blow up:

this one I think is pretty simple. the whole party genuinely means everything to me they r THE family every and make me sob and cry and throw up constantly with how much I love them.

when it comes to ships, I DO NOT FUCK AROUND ABOUT SKRAISY AND JORQUEEN they r seriously everything to me, and then for barnabos skrimm and taishen, I just think they’re silly. all of them have their own moments together at separate parts that I came to each of these conclusions separately.

For a more in depth breakdown of those bc I really like them actually:

Barnabos and skrimm are pretty self explanatory I think. Those two are incredibly endearing together, both in the sillier moments but also just work together really well as a serious relationship and their dynamic is just so so good

Barnabos and Taishen are like, tooth-rottingly cute and I think it’s a crime that they aren’t more popular as a ship. I think barnabos’ maturity and protectiveness combined with taishen’s naivety and sweetness just make for a really cute dynamic and their duo moments together make me smile every time without fail

Skrimm and Taishen are like, the least serious one I have of the three. there is obviously the whole “pumped up” bit that was actually like insane, but they’ve had a couple moments throughout pretty much the whole series that have just made me have my eye on them for a while. I do not know how functional they would actually be together but I like to think that they both at the very least acknowledge that they find the other attractive and refuse to think about it any harder for both of their own sakes

Do not ask me how many times the term “queenie and skrimm/taishen bestieism” has come up in my priv livetweets of icebound (the answer is a lot). seriously like queenie’s friendships with both of them r everything to me they are just so insanely endearing. I like how skrimm and queenie absolutely bring out the worst (best) in each other and are just absolute rapscallions together every time, and I just like queenie and Taishen!!! like I don’t have the full words to put to their dynamic but I love them and I love that they r best friends and love and support each other always I LOVE THEM!!!!

These guys also mean everything to me. Queenie and her boyfriend and her best friend!!! That timestamp is a clip that just shows off the absolute silliness of these three together. I am so obsessed with jornir’s obvious favoritism for queenie and just how much he loves and cares about her and trusts in her and her abilities but is so insanely concerned for her safety and prioritizes it above all else, meanwhile emphasizing how incredibly much he does NOT trust in skrimm or his abilities and how he is there only to help queenie and nothing else. it’s genuinely really hilarious and I love them sm. Jornir and skrimm in general are just really hilarious but when you juxtapose it with jorqueen it’s just that infinitely better. I think also queenie and skrimm’s aforementioned duo dynamic and how insanely silly they are with each other, combined with jornir’s jornirness is also just such a funny dynamic and I love it very much

I dont really know how to elaborate on how much I love them together like you either get it or you don’t. Queenie and her boyfriend and her best friend part 2!!! They r such a comfort trio for me just bc I really like the idea of them all bluetooth syncing to each other and just understanding each other and communicating really well. Also this came to me last night but yk that one tiktok that’s like “‘doesn’t matter what you think, a different gender best friend is a red flag’? I’m sorry Emily, we can’t be friends anymore. and tell your boyfriend I fuckin hate him too”. that’s them to me. (Side note I cannot find this tiktok fucking ANYWHERE now??? it existed at one point I swear)

yeag. that about sums it up I think. queenie’s protective instincts for everyone around her all the time in general make me sob but when it comes to her and Daisy I am genuinely gonna blow up a building about it I love them so much. the way she so instantly jumps to take care of her after honey’s passing and how insanely protective she is over her and is constantly looking out for her I’m just like ooughhhhhhhhh my god. they make me sob I love them dearly

these could’ve been separate images but i didn’t feel like making more separate images lmao

Jornir and barnabos as a duo are really great I love remembering that these guys are like actually awesome and really cool like genuinely. Both of them have different qualities to them that make them so good when they step up into leadership positions for the party and I just think they’re both absolute fucking badasses when they really wanna be and I love when they come together and maximize their joint slay it’s really great.

When it comes to both of them with Daisy, I have the same feeling about it which is oughhhhhhhh my god I love them. Again both of them being some of the coolest and most mature members of the party when they really wanna be really comes out with both of their individual dynamics with Daisy and I just really love how they both take up such a protective and supportive role with her. They r so. I dare say fatherly. I just oughhh I love them I love them lots.

Skrimm needs some hugs 🫂

On todays list of "things I found in my bag while I was in a cleaning frenzy" I offer you doodles of:

Taishen getting a surprise hug from Skrimm

A "slightly less filthy" Torbek

Sketch version of Twig and Torbek baking together

A doodle of Snail No. 2 (because heeyyy Snail lover here 🤠🤠)

Skrimm gets mail

[VIDEO TRANSCRIPT:

Andy (pretending to read a letter): I look at Daisy and I say: (as Skrimm) Barnabos, what the fuck are you talking about?!

(Daisy gestures in equal confusion)

Skrimm: Doesn't make any sense! This doesn't make any fucking sense, there's blood all over this, I can't even read half of it! There's something about 'Ogre-Titles' and– and– and something about going to 'Ogre-Heaven' and–

Daisy (gesturing): Why is there blood?!

Skrimm: You think that's THEIR blood?!

Daisy (gesturing): I don't know!

Skrimm: Oh my god! Oh no!

Mace: There's a chipped golden scale rolled up in the– in the note.

(Skrimm picks up the scale, hands shaking and gasping for air in horror)

(Mace wheezes)

Skrimm: This is– This is Taishen's skin!

Daisy (gesturing): Who's Mr. Bones??

(laughter)

Skrimm: I DON'T KNOW!

END TRANSCRIPT.]

I love the stupid interaction between all the characters and their chemistry. Skrimm acts like such a child with Jornir and its funny and sweet at the same time.

Jornir being big man he is, and how I see him picking up everyone.

I always find it funny whenever Jornir (richie) says something funny, Mikey, Andy, and Mace immediately just start mimicking Jornir voice XD

‘ I have no Hope’

Game night

[VIDEO TRANSCRIPT:

Taishen: I think you were winning.

Jornir: It was close though, you've almost got me!

Taishen: Yeah... I'm just having fun!

Jornir: Alright! Whose turn was it? Skrimm, I think it is your turn.

Skrimm: Okay.

Andy: And you would notice that like, instead of robbing you all blind with my increased, like, crazy sleight of hand I'm like intentionally losing, (rolls dice) just like letting it go.

Skrlmm: Oh no! I've messed it up again! Really Skrimmed that one! Ha ha.

(laughter)

Andy: I pass the turn and like– y'know, just like trying to keep Jornir interested because this is the only time I've ever seen him interested in anything.

(laughter)

Jornir: My pieces are little carved water buffalos! Isn't that cute?

Skrimm: Beautiful, beautiful.
