it’s very funny to me that dnp are now perfectly comfortable saying ph*n while phannies are doing everything in our power to scrub the word ph*n from existence despite it being our foundation.
what do you mean ph*n is in the word phannie?? no it isn’t?? there are literally no letters in common?? you’re delusional??
ph*n?? you mean dnp?? the only term we have ever used to refer to dan and phil collectively?? how do you even get ph*n from dan and phil like those names together are dil and dil ALREADY EXISTS, IDIOT!! HE’S A SIMS CHARACTER!! WE CANT HAVE TWO DILS ARE YOU MAD??
phandom?? wh- actually no we can’t run from that one. that’s us, present and accounted for, your honour 🫡

My Roman Empire is wondering what role Phil would’ve had in Dan is not okay because I’m convinced he would’ve had a part in it somehow
#is he still a YouTuber and is Dan a fanboy?#is he just a random guy Dan meets and befriends?#is he a forensic linguist?#I want to know so bad! we were robbed#dan and phil#dnp#dan and phil games#daniel howell#phil lester

lawyer and forensic linguist wip (#1)
“Lester, a word?”
Phil startles in his squeaky chair, the loud noise it produces attracts the attention of all the officers in the room. He imagines what the scene must look like from their point of view: the unapproachable Mr. Howell, stopping by the glorified cabinet Phil has been using as a desk and speaking directly to him.
“Do you have something for me to look over? Give a listen to?” Phil asks as they step outside, he pulls his thick baby blue cardigan tighter around himself. The air is gelid and the sky is covered by a thick, uninspired gray layer of clouds. Despite the weather, Mr. Howell's face is steadily turning redder and one after the other, drops of perspiration run down his temples.
The lawyer clears his throat and takes a deep breath, he closes his eyes for a second and then quickly raises his head to face Phil, “I’ve… Uhm,” he starts. Being loud and overly confident is part of Howell's job description and Phil has never seen him out of work, so it's almost shocking to experience a version of him that seems so unsure and quiet. “I’ve heard your birthday is coming up.”
Phil's eyes widen behind his glasses, “Right.” He responds, watching intently as the man in front of him reaches in the inside pocket of his black, corduroy coat and pulls a small rectangular box out of it. Phil feels himself short-circuit, he stares at Howell’s large hands holding the dark green case until he quickly reboots and extends his own hands to accept it.
“Wow, thank you so much, Mr. Howell...”
“Dan!” the other immediately says in almost a knee-jerk reaction, correcting him, “Just Dan is fine.”
“Oh, then please call me Phil.” Phil turns the box in his hands, his eyes dart up to look at the solicitor's face, but the expectant, excited look he finds there makes him avert his eyes immediately. “Wow,” the box is opened and inside it there's a pen, one of those fancy, smooth things Phil has only seen in the hands of people who make infinitely more money than he does. “Dan, this is a beauty, you really shouldn't have!”
“You don't like it?” Dan's face falls, he steps imperceptibly closer, “I can exchange it for something else, but I thought…” he stops himself, Phil picks the pen out of the box and tries the weight between his fingers, he is getting ready to reassure the man in front of him, but the other starts speaking again before he can continue. “I thought you could use it and maybe, think of me while you do.”
Phil's jaw goes slack and his hand holding the pen is encased into Dan's wider palm.
The heavy, metal door beside them is pushed open with a great deal of ear-splitting creaking and the hand that had settled around Phil's is torn off him and quickly hidden into a pocket.
“Well,” The lawyer squares his shoulders and takes on the same curt demeanor Phil usually sees on him, “I won't disturb you any further.” He steps closer, he looks down at him for a moment, letting Phil feel all the extra inches in his height and then runs away.
Phil turns to watch him scramble back into the police station. Pj is halfway out of the door, looking as confused as Phil feels. “What was that?” he asks with a chuckle.
“I’m not sure.”

okay so the we know you know comes after the cat boy sweater and they mention revealing your self to the world as wanting to legalise cat boys right and so my rational part of my brain thinks that must be what we know you know means but it would fit better if it was you know we know as in we know that they know we’re weird furry creatures
alternatively mr linguistics degree lester could have once again shown us he knows nothing and it should be you know, we know or you know. we know. as in we know we’re cat furries and they’re cat furries if that makes sense but like surely they’d proof read and grab tone first so i feel like that’s not right
so that leads us to this chaos of what do they actually mean and is it not even related to the cat sweaters even tho it’s sandwiched between the merch image and the merch shop links
like boys wtf are you doing stop messing with us 😭

Monthly Follower Recs
Monthly follower recommendations for the month of March 2024
Between The Lines (ao3) - Koolhotsweetloveberries
Summary: Attorney Dan Howell is faced with winning an impossible case or loosing his job.
All evidence points towards his client being guilty. Except for critical evidence provided by Forensic Linguist, Phil Lester.
The man Dan turned down a year ago.
Dad Wars (ao3) - SylvesterLester
Summary: Or, 5 times Dan and Phil fought over one dramatic school year, and one final battle that would change them forever. Probably.
Daprè Ski (ao3) - duckcrab
Summary: Dan thought he’d made himself clear.
“No skiing,” he remembered saying. “Neither of us are coordinated enough and I like your neck too much just the way it is to see it get broken.”
home renovations (ao3) - possumdnp
Summary: Phil is a new homeowner with a knack for getting himself into awkward situations around cute guys. Dan is a builder who's always working on renovations around Phil's house. What could go wrong?
(An alternate meeting YouTuber Phil/builder Dan AU.)
“I’ve never been there. Wanna go?” (ao3) - yikesola
Summary: He’d asked for too much, really. That’s what sent a volcano right through his and Phil’s plans to go to Portugal, Dan thinks miserably.
A ficlet about spirals and steps.
Neighbourly Nook (ao3) - wednesday_ukiru
Summary: The stranger had a dimple on his cheek that appeared when he laughed.
“I’m Dan,” he said, extending his hand. Phil reached for it with extreme eagerness, their knuckles knocking together in a particularly painful way, and they both winced, but Dan immediately broke into a smile. “I don’t know why I offered you a handshake, I never know how to do them.”
of damsels, knights, and fairytale endings (ao3) - artbabe
Summary: Phil is a shy baker's apprentice in a little village that is quartering knights on their way to a great battle. He catches the eye of Sir Howell, a handsome knight whom he may never see again.
slitcute (ao3) - calvinahobbes
Summary: Afterwards Dan couldn’t say what compelled him to go specifically to the Dykes on Bikes lot except he felt compelled and somehow sure that someone there would be willing to help him.
strike a deal, kiss my lips (ao3) - natigail
Summary: Witches were the only magical beings capable of binding and controlling demons. It required a complicated ritual and crazy amounts of magic.
It happening on accident was practically unheard of until Phil came along and got tangled up with a snarky and dangerous demon named Dan. Suddenly bound together, Phil must grapple with control over a chaotic demon that wants to strip the skin from his bones.
And maybe strip the clothes off of his body as well.

by the by when i brought up the fact (?) that tom has/had the same bedsheets as phil lester i wasn't trying to imply anything (in case it came across that way) i was merely pointing out the fact that they likely had the same bedsheets/duvet as one another. it's an even funnier coincidence when you realize that they went to university together and both studied linguistics
it's alright don't worry, i genuinely wasn't thinking of any strange implications! also I know nothing about phil lester so i had no idea he also studied linguistics??

You know one of impressions you like to get a cross in your fanfics and comics is that lester is not very well endowed but is a cunning linguist and hasn't dampened his and lamis relationship because she's pregnant
yeah. he's stubby. but he's at least thick enough for her to feel it. he fucks like a beast and eats pussy like pudding. plus lamis is in love with him and she's in love with his cock. she doesn't care about his size. they have a very high sexual relationship since she was 10 and he was like, 12 or something i dunno. they did things when they were kids. playing doctor and shit.
