DP x DC AU: Danny desperately wants to find the explosion guy. Tim is really good at covering his tracks... he didn't account for ghosts.

The explosions make it onto TV as purported terror activity and most people haven't heard of that part of the world much less ever given a second thought to care about it. The only real reason it gets reported on has something to do with the Justice League and... Danny knows too much.

He's been in training for Clockwork's court (which he's suspicious of- feels like kingly duty bullshit- but Danny is playing along out of curiosity for now) and he's learned a lot about how the living and non-living worlds collide. That means learning about CW's usual suspects- one of which just happened to have a ton of bases around the area Danny was seeing on the news.

It didn't take long for Danny to try to piece together that whoever blew up Nanda Parbat was trying to fuck with the League of Shadows, and was doing it successfully. Less green portals in the world the better, same goes for assassins. But it gets Danny thinking... Maybe he can employ similar tactics on the GIW Bases that keep spawning on the edges of Amity Park. It would at least set them back while he and his friends navigated the help line desk to request Justice League intervention. None of them can leave Amity Park, so outreach is going to have to be creative.

So Danny figures he'll just find the guy. Call up some ghosts who were there, or er, came from there and get a profile and track him down. But the ghosts keep saying it was The Detective. Annoying!

Danny goes full conspiracy theory, gets Tucker and Sam involved, and begrudgingly asks Wes Weston his thoughts.

He hadn't expected Wes to garble out a thirty minute presentation (that had 100 more slides left to go before he cut it off) about how Batman totally trained with a cult and so did his kids. Danny kind of rolled his eyes but... hey, new avenue of searching in the Infinite Realms at least.

The ghosts confirm that Bombs is for sure not Batman's MO- But maybe his second kid would know? The second kid was already brought back to life though, so no way to easily reach him... Danny starts to realize that this might be the work of a Robin now. Wasn't the red one known for solving cold cases? (Sam provides this information- its a social faux pas to not know hero gossip at Gotham Galas- everything she's learned is against her will).

It all comes to a head when Danny goes about the hard task of opening a portal for the guy to come through at just the right time, explain the infinite realms so he doesn't panic and then describe what the fuck was going on with the GIW. It takes months, just over a full year, of random (educated guesses) portal generating- Finally, Red Robin drops into the land of the dead.

"So, you're the guy I've got to talk to about explosions right?" Danny enthusiastically asks.

Tim thinks he's died and landed in the after life following 56 hours of being awake and plummeting off the side of a building into a Lazarus pool. Nothing makes sense about the kid in front of him.

"Yeah, I got a guy for munitions." Tim answers cooly.

"How do you feel about secretly sanctioned government operations that violate protected rights?"

"Gotta get rid of 'em some how. Need me to point you in the right direction?" This might as well be happening.

#dcxdp #dpxdc #dp x dc #dc x dp #danny phantom #long post #tim drake #red robin #tim and danny team up to blow up the GIW au #Tim being known as the explosion guy is my favorite and i will not let this part of his lore go ignored #Jason is the munitions guy obviously and the ghosts go crazy over the gossip it enlights when he helps in amity park #Danny one hundred percent is living for this working relationship- what a weirdo -danny hasn't met someone stranger than himself in a min #tim bartering his services for a few more years of life and danny just pikachu facing him #Tim wants to improve his relations in the afterlife be he still completely thinks hes dead #danny: dude ur still alive #Tim: yeah thats the goal but i'll help you meet your goals first and then we can negotiate #Danny decides to make the guy super ghost rich (thinking big Haunt real estate) and send him home #Tim blows up the GIW with no remorse and with all the data back up for proper justice to be served court side #tim returns from the dead and this is how the bats learn that he's the one who blew up nanda parbat all those years ago #it takes danny so long to find tim bc tim was spiralling and only after bruce got back did he get into a normal routine enough to get got

:D I love Nicky so much

I'll be making these into (handmade) stickers and will be giving them out for FREE at both the upcoming Elfia event and at Heroes Dutch Comic Con (summer edition)

I actually don't think anyone from the Netherlands follows me on here but uuuhh if you do plan on going to one/both events, keep an eye out for someone in a badly made Taylor cosplay and you will be granted with one of these bad bois >:)

#the last (and first time) I did this it took me like 3 HOURS to make only 30 ish stickers lol #and it was at like 1 am at the night before the event #but this time I'm more prepared #and I just tested out a new way to make them which is SO MUCH MORE EFFICIENT #and IT. WORKS. TOO.#I'll also be remaking a few from last year #also; yes I did look into just ordering them online but I'm not going to spend 100+ euros on stickers that I'm going to give away for free #and investing into a printer and sticker paper and laminate stuff is a bit too expensive right now as well #so I'd rather make these by hand with all my blood sweat and tears and spend that money on the artist alley instead :D #dndads #here we go with all versions of spelling Nicky's name again #dndads nicky #nicky close #nicky foster #nicholas close #nicholas foster #nicky close foster #nick #trans nicky #trans #my favorite trans guy #dungeons and daddies #my art #elfia #HDCC #teen nicky #demon nicky #so mannyy tagss

the nutcracker ballet but make it knitwear💜🩰

#knitting #knitblr #wip #the pattern is march of the nutcrackers on ravelry #i’m mostly just impressed that i managed to write a pattern that made me feel just as insane about the nutcracker as i did deep in #the throes of show week😅#and as always. it’s full of a few fun details!#the raglan shaping is twisted like candy canes a la Land of the Sweets in Act II. the nutcrackers themselves in all their spooky glory.#and my favorite! the march of the nutcracker theme on the cuffs - the left sleeve has base staff notes & the right has treble staff notes🎹

Hank with an Eldritch Horror Reader

Here's another thing I wrote two years back! It was an interesting concept which I really liked, so I actually really enjoyed writing this request!

Hank J Wimbleton was a grunt of many things, but not one to be scared unless he had a good reason to be. There were many things in this world he did not understand, you were one of them. Upon meeting you, his first instinct would have been to either fight or run away - who could blame him, it was all he knew. No matter how many times you reassured him that the very last thing you wanted to do was to harm him, he’d draw his weapon, uncertain of whether or not he should believe your words.

Once you show no resistance towards him whatsoever and simply restrain him using your powers or other methods, that’s when, thrashing around as much as he could, he would start listening. You may or may not have seen a grunt up close, but this was your chance to finally examine one. As you scrutinise him from every possible angle Hank realises that you were simply curious about his being and finally lowers weapon.

Your voice would likely hurt his head and freeze the blood in his veins, so you might have to resort to telepathy or speak through a marionette, if you can find one. Though, once Hank’s interest in you has been piqued, he’d be more than happy to find you one. A lot of people in Nevada seem to be redundant in the first place. Regarding telepathy: You will be able to have a two-way conversation with Hank like that, but, for the most part, he doesn’t think in words. Still, he can do so, if needed.

If you’re on the rather small side, he will make an effort to pick you up, or hold you, and bring you back to base. Depending on whether you can float or not, this might be rather difficult, but he’ll try. If you’re large, however, then he will simply “tell” you to follow him. As an eldritch being you could likely either change your form or scare away anyone in your path in the first place, so he doesn’t particularly worry about anyone being stupid enough to attack you.

Spend time with him, he’ll get used to you more and more and, eventually, grow a bond with you. Proud, he’ll show you to Doc so he can figure out what you are, but do not be fooled. Hank wants to know what you are to some degree too. Once comfortable with you and certain you won’t harm him, he’ll start observing you, touching you to some degree. See how you react, how you feel, how you are.

Despite your conversations being, for the most part, one-sided, Hank will ask you directly what you are and if you’re some form of eldritch deity. Since you’re an amicable creature he can’t exactly wrap his head around, it’s worth a try.

Although he would like to do so to some degree, he won’t take you with him on missions. It’s his way of saying “I care a great deal about you, I don’t want you to die or worse even if you are capable of defending yourself.” If you really insist on aiding him, he will let you, begrudgingly. But beware that he will have your back. In fact, having you around will give him a greater reason to fight and improve his overall performance. Though, it will also be a major stress factor to him if something were to happen to you, so choose wisely.

#madness combat #madness combat x reader #hank j wimbleton #hank j wimbleton x reader #I've been into eldritch horrors and stuff ever since I was a teenager #although I don't condone his beliefs in the slightest I really like Lovecraft's writing style #at one point it influenced how I wrote as well since he was rather descriptive in a pleasant to read way #I have an anthology at home that I might wanna reread again at some point #celephais was always my favorite story and I think it may be one of my favorite stories of all time #I know it interests no one but my favorite book is No Longer Human by Osamu Dazai #and yes I did get into classic literature because of a certain anime I don't wanna tag in this post #but another book I really enjoyed reading was Clockwork Orange I read it with someone I used to be close to and it was a really good read #it gave me nightmares but I really enjoyed it! gave me something to talk about with my father as well #Hier kommt Alex by Die Toten Hosen is also a really good song! as is 1000 Gründe by the same band!#those songs are based on Clockwork Orange actually!#I never watched the movie and I don't think I ever will because eye gore disturbs me but the book was good! I read it bc of tboi!#I have quite a few classic at home! but I think I wanna finish reading Paradise Lost! That's also a really interesting story so far!#reading and writing are some of my favorite hobbies!#I'd also love to finishe the price of salt at some point as well! Because I have to all things considered!#I just wish I could juggle all of my hobbies a bit better! I wish I had a bit more time for everything! but oh well it be like that!

I love how you write and your mind that creates these scenarios, I didn't know I needed Ronal and Tonowari to adopt Spider. Thank you.🧚‍♂️Ronal would lose his temper if he knew or saw Spider's torture, that the scientists manage to hack into the military system to see their plans and find that video with the Sullys and Ronal, Tonowari and their children there. would see red. don't think you can hold back the urge to hit Jake or Neytiri.

context: spider finally gave into his injuries, and it was only after he passed out with a bloody nose and worrying brain activity, that they investigate his stay with the RDA and find the recording. cause angst.

ronal would have to be held back by eywa herself to keep her from hitting jake; he left him and couldn't be bothered until after he found out the boy had been tortured. she was mate of the chief, tsahik herself, she knew that sometimes you had to make choices that were unfair, soul shattering, but you carried that guilt for all to see, especially your own family. but jake hadn't, he had no guilt for leaving spider, no care for the boys condition, not a shadow of a doubt he made the right choice. he left a child with demons and he couldn't care less until he was forced to see the consquence's of his actions, to see the damage done. even then she doubts he would have felt much, no, he was guilty cause other people knew, people who watched him toss spider aside and forget about him for months. he was filled with shame, not regret.

she couldn't sympathize with that.

she could sympathize with the kids, they tried to forget because they couldn't do anything, couldn't hear "he's a strong kid" another time without their hearts breaking, couldn't survive with the memory of their lost brother on their minds, endless possibilities about where he was or what was happening to him plaguing them. she could sympathize with them as they witnessed their brothers torture, shielding their eyes to it, kiri leaving when she heard spider begging for them to just kill him, lo'ak and neteyam standing with stiff backs and teary eyes, both trying to remain strong despite the toll the video was having on them.

she could even sympathize with neytiri, who was not as apathetic as she attempted to let on, covering her mouth, begging jake to tell her why. "you said he would be safe, you said he would be too valuable to them to hurt." her tail lashed as she stared at her mate, then the child unconscious in the cot across the infirmary pod. ronal was unsure about the woman and her relationship with spider, but she could tell it was not as easy as she wanted to think, that it was layered and painful for both parties. all she knew was that neytiri never wanted any harm to come to spider, even if she allowed her mate to let it happen, she was under the impression they were doing what was best.

she didn't know enough about the scientists to blame them, but the mother in her wanted to rip them to shreds for being near her baby, but she tolerated them for the sake of more information. she was suspicious, they seemed to know the child well enough but didn't seem like they had been opposed to leaving him? she opted to ignore that train of thought for the boy's sake.

instead of screaming and shouting, past her initial blow up where she kicked jake out.

she saw red, the sound of spiders screams echoing in her ears, making her heart twinge. "get out," she spoke low, like a growl. jake didn't move, he would wish he did. "get out... or I will remove you myself. a child was tortured because of you, left behind, unthought of for months. you do not regret what you did, you just feel shame that its come back around to bite you. you do not deserve to see him and he does not need you looming over him as he recovers." she considered herself restrained, even if the look on jake and their mates face's told otherwise. she could have hurt him, she didn't.

he didn't deserve to be around the child, not now, not when he was suffering from jakes actions, she left him to be handled by her mate. tonowari was much better at hiding how he was feeling, so he could be somewhat peaceful as he assured jake the child would be cared for but that he would no longer be considered a sully, by anyone, and that he would taken into the tonowari family. his glare was enough to keep jake from arguing, and the gentle restrained push from the chief was enough to get him to go back to his pod, claiming he needed to take care of kiri who had refused to leave, not even to be with spider.

both the chief and tsahik limited spider's visitors to themselves, the scientists, their kids, the sully kids, and neytiri, sometimes, if their patience could handle it. there was a line between deserved animosity and outright cruelty, even if that line was like that of the blade of a knife.

ronal couldn't stop watching the video, over and over, watching spider fight so hard to not give them anything, falling for their bluffs, breaking down when they lied and said he'd shown them something. he screamed and thrashed and begged, he wanted them to kill him, rathering death then to give up the sully's, The People as a whole. he was so strong, stronger then most people she knew, and so very brave. he kept a strong face against the scientists who seemed dead set on breaking him, against the general who was grilling, against the machine that was worming its way into his mind, causing him great agony in the process. tstew 'evan (brave boy). every one of her boys screams was like digging a knife deeper and deeper into her heart, his tears like acid, the blood dripping from his nose making hers run cold in her veins. she knew she should put it down, listen to tonowari's pleas for her to stop torturing herself, but she wanted spider to be seen; she saw his pain, his sacrifice, his strength. if no one else acknowledged what he had done, she would, she would know even if she had to ingrain his suffering into her mind.

tonowari sat with barely contained emotion. if it was anger, sorrow, regret, frustration, even joy that he could finally call spider his own, maybe all of the above. he just knew he was feeling far too much and spider's unconscious body and agonized screams weren't making any better. he held onto his mate as she watched over the boy, listening to the children as they sat together, trying to wrap his mind around all that had changed in the matter of hours. spider was his child, he couldn't stand the man he once considered his brother, his whole perspective on neytiri had changed, and he was now faced the horrific capabilities of the RDA, what they did to his child and could continue to do to many others.

as a chief he was angry and terrified, as a father he wanted to hold his children in his arms and never let go, as a warrior he wanted to charge those demons and destroy them, the whatever else he was wanted to scream at jake, to question him, to beg him for answers, to ask neytiri why she couldn't mother him, why they couldn't just love the boy he now held so dear? his mind hurt, more than it ever had before, and now all he could do was sit. sit and try and find a course of action that wouldn't put his people, his children, his mate, Eywa and her creations as a whole, at risk, that would simultaneously not rip his heart, mind, and soul into shreds. he could only sit and wait and watch and listen. the na'vi didn't truly believe in a hell, but tonowari decided that this was his.

ronal only got rid of that forsaken tablet when spider began to rouse, crying out for someone, anyone, to hold onto, to soothe the fear that fluttered in his belly or the pain that radiated from his head down to his toes. she was at his side in half a heart beat, sending the scientists spiralling as they attempted to catch the thing before it fell to the ground and presumably shattered.

spider had the attention of his newly found mother, father, and siblings. ao'nung and tsireya had gone on the defense after only hearing clips of the recordings, deciding there that spider was theirs to protect now, theirs to love and cherish. they were angry too, in a much more confused way, even in comparison to their parents. they didn't understand; why did they hurt him, why did they use that machine, why did the sully's do nothing, who they should blame, who deserved their anger. there were easy answers, but none truly soothed them, none of them went deep enough to bring them any comfort. so instead they focused on their brother, making him feel safe and loved, making the nightmares go away. it ached them though, to see someone, let alone their baby brother, go through what he was going through, and it was taking little pieces of them away, bit by bit. that was ok though, it was worth it.

all the little family knew was that spider would need them, all of them, if he was ever going to heal. even the sully's, in time, maybe just the kids, maybe the whole lot if they managed to pull themselves together and make things right. but one step at a time, baby steps, to lead spider back from this frail state to the child of eywa that was hiding away somewhere in his beaten body and broken mind.
