#(he's broken)

[esaesis]

imagine that you have had a terrible breakup with your great love, you have hurt her, even though you meant well, but your love is the goddess of magic, and you are a wizard, so every time you do magic you feel her presence — her look, her smile, her attention — or the absence of her look, smile, attention.

magic is all you have and all you are. magic is your essence. everything you love, everything you know, everything you can do is magic. and at the same time, magic is killing you. you and everything that may be around you.

and that's how you've been spending the last year: between the magic that's killing you and the goddess, the lover, the muse, who ignores you, even though every time you use magic even a little bit, you feel her presence.

and you don't see any options. you search and you read and you ask, but there is no way out, the bomb inside you is getting worse with each day.

and then - after an adventure, a mindflayer, when you are looking for at least some way out with your new friends (your first friends in many years) - one of the most respected wizards of our time comes and passes on from your goddess, your beloved, your magic: kill yourself and it will solve all our problems.

and all you think is: yes, I guess that's really the way to go.

I really hate when people dismiss Mo Ran suffering.

I love Wanning, and yes he did suffered a lot and yes he's a sweet little pie.

But Mo Ran also suffered. They at very least suffered equally, each, a different type of suffering. And Mo Ran is also a little pie, he's also good.

He took the flower in the place of CW after knowing him for only for two months or something. He wanted protecting fuckin worms, WORMS. He's a kind and sweet boy. And went through a lot in a very young age, the fact he snapped and killed all those people is on that, anyone so young that keeps being pushed, abused like that, can snap and have a moment of insanity. Kill a bunch of assholes and try kill yourself after is not exactly an act of pure evil.

And everything he did with the flower well he was with the flower and I don't get why some people can't separate and understand MR and TXJ.

I have seen this type of thing before multiple times, maybe because of it, that to me was so easy to understand and accept.

For example, in The Vampire Diares, we have the vampires with and without humanity. Stephan without his humanity is a psycho who rip people's head and than put them back, with humanity he's sweet and kind and don't hurt people.

In Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Angel with his soul is also kind and sweet and good, the first love interest of the MC, but without his soul he's a psycho who killed thousands, tried destroy the world and tortured emotionally and psychologically the MC who loved him. In both cases, is pretty clear that their both version is the same character, the same person, yet for more that they blame themselves, people around them(and mostly of the fans) understands that the version without the soul/humanity is a broken version, not complete, not full, therefore not really themselves. They/we all know that what they're as evil is part of them, is their dark side. Cause those storie are about that. We all have darkness in ourselves. And what keep us from doing evil, following our darkness is out humanity/our soul/our ability for goodness/empathy. Call what it may. Without we're incomplete. Broken. Not fully ourselves.

MR as TXJ, was broken, he was incomplete. Was not himself. He had not memories of good. He had no ability for good left.

I just don't get who is unable to forgive him, maybe cause I grew up with similar stories, forgiving Stephan, Angel. And god even those who were evil by choice and merely regretted later like Regina from Once Upon a Time.

You may not like him, why though why why, but dismiss his pain? That's a little out of my understanding, that boy suffered all kind of things someone could suffer for two lifetimes, before he was even 30.

The worse was how he was manipulated in all ways, his body became a puppet, his mind was deceived, his soul broken, his feelings played. Got killed, tortured, abused as a child, had that horrible experience with his mother...

Because of the flower, he as a broken soul, tortured the man he loved and whom he tried to protect and had sacrificed for.

Every time I think carefully about every single thing he went through I feel like crying and really sad and really angry at HBN, forgetting my whatever other feelings I might have for him. MR is just that one character I wish to keep in a little pot to protect from the world</3

The bats have so many folks around, even if they aren't always working together. Enough that folks like to joke/write about Danny just kinda showing up acting like he already lives there. He just kinda blends in.

I'd love to see more magic motivated versions of this. Some kind of spell that affects the bat's perceptions of the past and present, making them actually miss that this boy wasn't with their family too long ago. Maybe it changes their understanding like it's a time line shift, maybe it fogs their mind just a tad and makes them glaze past something like it wasn't even there. I like the second if only because I feel like that would make it more likely for the bats to realize a spell was a foot.

Imagining this from Danny's side, hes terrified this whole time of getting found out. He knows how and when he showed up here and maybe even how flimsy whatever magic is in place is. Imagining a Desiree wish that was either very carefully worded or Not so carefully worded. Maybe he placed himself with the Wayne family with the expectation that he would quietly mooch of some rich idiot until he was ready to be on his own. Or maybe he wished himself to be a part of the batclan, taking up a mask and patroling with them as a bird that Doesn't Exist.

Ofc eventually the spell has to be broken, leaving the bats confused worried scared angry probably even amused, and a billion other things. WHY did this teenager decide to adopt himself into the Wayne/bat family? Who the hell is he and where did he come from. Someone call Zatanna, there is some magic Fuckery going on.

#dpxdc #dp x dc #dp x dc crossover #dcxdp #dc x dp crossover #dc x dp #desiree is far too underutilized in this crossover #imagine if the bats tried to play it off like the spell hadnt broken #they wanna get information thry cant get that if the gig is up #depending on how well they feel like they actually know him they might think hes a flight risk #maybe hes been with them for weeks maybe this is day 5 #anyway i know there been stories and prompts somewhere in the area of this pls pls pls share in the replies if u can

Is it a stupid idea? Yes. Did I have to go overboard and animate it? No.

But I had to and I'm not sorry ;P

Honestly I cannot overstate how much seeing Hayden as TCW Anakin changed EVERYTHING. Matt Lanter's Anakin is a frat dude. He wears a backwards baseball hat and says vaguely offensive things without realizing, while being a fundamentally chill and outgoing guy at heart. Hayden's Anakin is... not that. His voice. His expressions. His physical presence. It's off somehow. It's just left of normal. It's completely unremarkable and yet deeply uncanny for reasons you can't quite describe. TCW Anakin was always a flatter, blander portrayal, but I don't think I realized until now what exactly was missing: the serial killer energy. The inarticulable conviction that SOMETHING unhinged is going on behind those eyes.

#also the difference between TCW anakin's charm and ROTS anakin's charm #tcw: outgoing. does finger guns. nonplussed socially sometimes but still confident. able to be charming #rots: competent. exuberant. frothing with rage. so shy and awkward he fully cant function. insecure. an entire tank yet fragile as glass #charming only because hes both SO COMPETENT and also so categorically unable to purposefully be charming #ITS SO DIFFERENT. WILDLY DIFFERENT. I DID NOT REALIZE HOW DIFFERENT IT WOULD BE #im so glad i got to see this honestly #im going to be reimagining tcw episodes with this version of anakin in them as my bedtime story from now on #i hate to be a broken record but KAREN MILLER CAPTURES THIS #star wars #grace for ts #anakin #ahsoka show #truly truly truly truly truly transformative for me as a person to have seen this #tcw anakin comes into the room loudly quipping and complaining #rots anakin stands there quietly until he smiles and you realize his teeth are covered in blood

Phantom does not like Bruce Wayne, he tells Batman with a completely serious face.

Phantom is hanging out in the Watchtower, shooting the shit with Green Arrow.

Well, Phantom is talking shit about rich people.

"Sounds like a personal grudge," Batman comments idly. Lots of people don't like rich people, so he isn't actually offended.

"Oh, I just hate a select few. Oliver Queen? He's fine." Green Arrow visibly preens.

Batman feels a lip twitch, but fights the smile.

"What about Bruce Wayne?" Superman asks, very deliberately not looking at Batman.

Phantom snorts.

"Bruce Wayne? I hope he wrecks one of those fancy cars and needs both his feet amputated."

The room goes completely silent.

"Holy crap, kid; what'd he do?"

"He backed Vlad Masters is what he did. The Wayne Tech he provided was used to get one-up on me; took me literally two months to escape." The kid cracks his neck, and the high neckline moves enough to show off a shiny new red scar.

Bruce feels the world drop from under his feet.

"He what?" The question is ripped from Batman's throat before he even finishes thinking it.

"Oh yeah, he also financially backed the supporting senators behind the anti-ecto acts. Bruce Wayne is a literal useless sack of shit."

"...I'm sorry, the anti-ecto what?" Superman's voice is strained as he asks, and his eyes are already starting to glow.

Bruce, after getting back to the cave, pulls Tim aside and together they rip into every single transaction the board did both over the table and under it.

And there it is.

Multiple board members had been using Bruce Wayne's name as they donated to shady politicians, essentially sold off his developmental tech that was supposed to be disposed of, and had been embezzling funds.

On all official papers, Bruce Wayne was the biggest backer for a law that was in clear violation of Meta Rights.

@simplestoryteller

#dpxdc #dcxdp #dp x dc #dc x dp #story prompt #phanfic #bruce is pissed #oh he is so fuckin pissed #all of those board members had multiple broken bones #they used his name to justify a genocide #his NAME #a GENOCIDE #he's beyond livid and he's freely taking it out on all those responsible

[sprucewoodmpreg]

im not even grianpilled but i have to admit i fuck w his thang of making games with rules that are clearly Meant To Be Broken in pursuit of narrative. or content. life series where the most interesting story beats tend to come from players being hyperaware of the rules + how they try to bend them. and now this permit stuff where the previously (mostly) straightforward shopping district has turned into Ok How Can We Cheat The System

#it's like. uninteresting systems given interest through rules that are supposed to be questioned or broken #it's a recurring thing with every little game he introduces #though i supposed this could be said for like. most games n rulesets. the rules create tension Which Is The Point #but with how often grian is the instigator of this shit. and considering the whole Youtuber/Content thing. it's a bit funny

imagine during the third book where percy gets his final recommendation letter. he is approached by a god or goddess who asks him to reconcile past relationships. because to move forward, you can't let the things of the past hold you back. so percy gets closure with the side characters from the pjo og series. clarisse, nico, thalia, and rachel. and it just gets progressively more intimate until he has to confront one final person: the ghost of luke castellan.

#percy has to confront the notion that even he strongly dissaproves of how luke tried to dismantle the neglectful system #he's old enough to understand why he did it #and begrudgingly admits that he's angry too #by talking with luke percy has to confront the man he could've been #and bonus points that grover and annabeth are with him #so grover offers luke something as his protector #and annabeth gets to reconcile what was broken #and it helps luke move on as a ghost so he can try for isle of the blessed and attempt at a better and honest life like he wanted #pjo #percy jackon and the olympians #pjo text post #pjo headcanon #percy jackson #annabeth chase #grover underwood #clarisse la rue #thalia grace #nico di angelo #rachel elizabeth dare #luke castellan
