DP x DC Prompt: The Watchlist

Batman has a watchlist. A list that contains every individual who could become a rouge and a contingency plan for if they did.  

And while they, his children, often make fun of his paranoia and him for having it, they totally understand why he did. They lived in Gotham, for Christ's sake. Where everyone’s just a pin drop away from being the city’s next big villain, forcing the bats to scratch their heads while playing cat and mouse with a sicko for a good few weeks. And while they won’t admit it, the list has helped them a few times. 

But that won’t stop them from making fun of any of the list’s new developments. Because you see, there was a new list. And it wasn’t just a watchlist. No, no, no. It was The Watchlist.

It was a new development after he and Robin went on an out-of-state mission to investigate some town in bum fuck nowhere Illinois. And it was under some pretty tight security as well, so they were expecting something good, like mad scientists or evil mayors. Not profiles of the kids who lived in the town. And while there were a few metas and vigilantes that made the list interesting, by the end of it all they just seemed to be teenagers. 

Until they saw Damian. They hadn’t seen him since he came back from the mission with B. He looked tired. Like ‘Tim hasn’t slept in a week and is surviving on just coffee beans’ tired.

“Ah, I see you all have found it. Good. A few of them will be arriving next week as they’re a part of Gotham Academy’s student exchange program. At least three of them will be staying in the manor with us. Father will need you all to be on standby and to be ready for any possible scenario. Please, for the love of all that is good, do not encourage them in any way, shape, or form. And please do not dismiss them either. The outcome of doing that will be much worse. Is there more that I should add? Yes. Will I? No, because you won’t understand. Not until you've seen what I have.” 

The demon child sighed, then looked them dead in the eyes. “Godspeed to us all.” Then walked away.

Okay, they were scared now.

i hate that this website has location based ads now like it's one thing to promote the local grocery store chain to me but i am seeing ads for my workplace now :/

#stop it...... #i don't want to go back but this is the last sick day i can reasonably take #i probably should've gone back today but i told them when i was still feeling worse that i wasn't coming in....... #ohhhh i dread going in tomorrow so much. i don't even dislike this job i just hate being somewhere everyday #each day feeling its meaninglessness...... my meaninglessness in the space.......... the repetition and redundancy #selling people who don't need to be there things that they don't need #standing all day long just fucking bored #hoping that enough has happened since i've been gone that people can fill me in #ugggh because it's soooo boring but stressful to have to generate conversation with the same people every day #when nothing new ever happens #and i get sick of everybody even the people that i like and i don't really think anybody likes me that much either #i guess i felt this when i worked there part time but because i only had to be there part time it wasn't this constant gnawing feeling #and they didn't have me in the shop all the time....... this schedule is fucking killing me #i walk there i stand all day and i walk home #that's one of the reasons i haven't come back in yet - i was so dizzy and nauseous that the idea of standing all day was like. #i obviously can't fucking do that even if i would otherwise feel well enough to come in #if i had a sitting job then it wouldn't matter if i was a little dizzy #but getting back and forth to work and then standing for 8 hours. even when i'm feeling well it's kind of a lot #idk i guess i'm pretty unhappy with this job and where i am in life etc but i can't quit rn because what else would i do #there's literally job of this type that is going to pay as well and have good benefits #and i'm not qualified yet for the type of work i hope to do in the future #so i just gotta wait it out but it feels like. endless. #sigh anyway i'm just lazy lol #all this is to say. stop putting ads for my workplace on my dash lol i don't need to see all that

Where did you see the new lord huron song is coming out? how do people hear about these things?

it’s sorta a puzzle game honestly aksjdkdkdkd like they announced that they composed the score here and you can hear an original lord huron song in the trailer, there’s a lord huron discord server where some people find things out (super investigators??) beforehand and tell the server, the other day someone on reddit posted about the SESAC listing for a song called “ace up my sleeve” filed by lord huron, and a few days ago i looked up the movie (called the starling girl) on youtube and found the clip they released where you can hear a portion of the new song singing “an ace up my sleeve” which confirmed it (to me at least) to be the name of the song :D i know personally i follow the reddit page and am in the discord server to piece everything i can together (and then i come here to scream about it)

#i know that bc i’m so excited for this i’ve been googling/searching for any crumbs pretty much everyday. like there was a clip dropped #a few days ago but no score/song snippet. so sometimes it’s a bust alsjdkdjkajd #and honestly i do all this just because i’m excited and have nothing better to do like they always announce it eventually. eventually #i’m sure they’ll post about it thursday ?? if they haven’t already?? or friday by the latest. like what they did with vide noir. they didn’t #even post about the trailer aksjdkdjksjd they just posted about it the day it came out #lord huron #asks

i think when i'm at home i don't really mask bc my family is equally as weird as me so i can basically do whatever shit i want

#like i just #sat on the floor after dinner and started bouncing #and ended up sort of ranting about everything i do to act like a human #and my mom was like how do you act literally all day for eight hours everyday?? #also i mentioned good omens on two different occasions like twenty minutes after the convo that i related to it was over #like i'm genuinely kinda happy rn? #it feels weird #to be this happy #ive just been existing #literally bouncing around my kitchen #making weird noises #and saying pretty much whatever? #my dad also related to a lot of what i was saying so now idk if either of them are neurodivergent #but then in public around people #if this is how i naturally am then i'm definitely masking #i can't tell whether or not it's disabling me so i still don't know if it's autism #but whatever #i've been posting a lot today i think i should shut up lmao #borf barks #i'm really glad my family is like this

#uuuugh i desperately want to take a geology course #and aquire paleontology friends #and be a paleontologist. i mean i wanna be an astrobiologist with Microbiology. ecology. evolutionary biology. geology. and paleontology #influences. also biochemistry. and that's all vaid bc astrobiology is intersectional. i can get there however i want #and what i want is to look at the evolution of biochemistry in cyanobacteria but finding someone who does something that specific is hard #but like learning abt paleontology has broken my brain a bit. like maybe its just bc im in the desert and u can see the exposed ground but #like i look at the landscape and see the volcanic rock and uplifted areas snd everything and its just like #holy fuck we are walking around on 4billion years worth of history and i wanna kno how all those processes work #in terms of making the landscape how it is #and i got to see some fucking wild trace fossils the other day and i was so fucking excited to see them #and when i go home to visit i think we're gonna see a pretty good natural history museum #bc my parents were like: what do u wanna do while ur home? and i was like well u see i am v into paleontology atm #and im v excited to go with them bc idk they kno what kinda freak i am and that always makes things easier #also they would prob read the info on the exibits if i asked bc i cant fucking read lol #and my mum is v into rock collecting rn so that is an excuse for me to learn abt geology stuff #hhhhh there is just so much cool stuff to learn #and everyday i have to sit there and do my lab work on a topic that i have greatly diverged away from #like my boss was like: im so excited. when we publish all this data u will be the name ppl think of when they think of carbon cycling in X #system! which is true. its a narrow field and ive generated lots of data #and what do i feel abt all that data? absolutely fuck all. its like ive maliciously collected a bunch of little gems and then im gonna #uncarimonially dump them on the floor for a tiny collection of ppl and then walk the fuck out the door #idk its probably just me being passive aggressive bc collecting the data has/is casuing me such physical and mental strain #but god if i could take a paleontology class rn id be so fucking annoying abt it. to b fair id also be the same abt a Microbiology class #sigh... maybe within the next year #unrelated #lmao im extremely annoying abt paleontology now and i havent even taken a class #at every chance im just like: well u kno... *insert fact here* #and i feel so obnoxious but i can't stop so i guess its just a hazard of being around me haha

Hi! As a fellow Humanities Person (sociologist) I've been really enjoying your critical (in an academic sense!) analysis of kpop & the Korean entertainment industry! I'm curious- how do you think social media has impacted kpop? I remember you said in an answer to a previous ask that aespa's choreo seems to have been created with TikTok in mind. And I feel like social media has made it even more difficult for idols to have a private life- like NCT is posting like behind the scenes videos OF behind the scenes videos and I can't help but to think that it seems like there's hardly a moment in their lives where they're NOT being filmed.

thank you! i'm not an authority by any measure but it is fun to speculate/extrapolate and talk about these things with people!

hmm. actually i don't think social media has made it that much more difficult for idols to have a private life, at least in the way that i think you're talking about. yes absolutely it has made idols need to be more careful, bc everyone has a phone now, but for things like behind the scenes content, that's just still just work. they would have been there even if there was no cameras, because things like recording or dance rehearsals or other content filmings are all work hours, not their private life. they know full well that their job is to be a public figure, so when they show up to do work, no matter what it is or if it's being filmed, that's work. has social media made it so that they have to do more things that they didn't have to before? yes absolutely, but i don't think it's that big of an issue for a lot of them. most idols really do care about the communication they have with their fans and showing them more the parts of the process is something that is actually interesting (in my opinion at least), much more so than just getting selfies. i think accounts like the shinee managers (shinee_atoz) are a great way to give a bit more personal context to the official content that comes out (which is what key said abt it when he pitched it) and it doesn't infringe on idols' (or the managers!!) private lives at all.

in terms of aespa's choreo being made for tiktok, that's just going back to the old methods from first and second gen to get a song to go viral because of the point choreo/dance moves. and it did work, next level was probably the most recognizable choreo last year (other than rollin, which was actually old school viral). in fact the whole doing choreo challenges on tiktok is just an evolution of the whole reason point choreo exists in the first place.

#there's a lot of ways social media has changed kpop. probably too many to list #but biggest are probably in marketing accessibility and fan communities #tbh social media has made it difficult for EVERYONE to have private lives. not just idols #like its definitely made people in the periphery of idols have more of a struggle bc fans will stalk their social medias #maybe a better line of inquiry is about how social media has made it so that there are much less clear consent boundaries #on when and where you can be filmed. but my point still stands in this case bc they're likely given warning #/already know when there's going to be bts filming happening #there's still so much that we dont see of idols' lives. like the stuff we do see is the stuff they choose to show us #this is a pretty broad question because it's so integrated into normal everyday life that when you try to dig into it in one aspect #like in kpop. you have to then interrogate how it affects EVERYTHING #kpop questions #text #answers #fundamentally it does come down to that everyone is just expected to show more. not idols i mean literally everybody #like my mom berated me on the phone last week for not posting on instagram saying 'people want to know youre alive' #no they dont mom. i dont need to post on instagram i'm perfectly fine not having ppl know what im doing #and thats not even getting into all the fucked up shit around tiktok & filming ppl in public. i dont even wanna touch that w a ten ft pole #yea. very entangled topic

[0rionz-belt]

me to the doctor, trying to get a referal: yeah i just struggle to talk to people thats all but i would like to be able to please

me, once i actually get an evaluation to get another referal to a psychiatrist: i still feel bad for hurting someone 4 years ago out of the fear that they were going to abandon me. also hey seeing imaginary bugs that disappear when i look directly at them after killing a real one isnt normal is it

#vent #hey these are some serious mental health issues for me so maybe dont talk to me about them? this shits hard to admit to. #wish i had mentioned how i started being convinced there was someone outside my house every night for months after losing a different friend #with occasionally thinking i heard people breaking in to go along with it #oh! or maybe the fact that im fucking pacing around for hours everyday doing nothing but daydreaming even to the point of injury!!! #ooo wait no what about me still being set off by notifications and thinking im about to lose another friend? #or how ive literally been going between being happy and normal to incredibly sad over the course of a day? #that ones been happening for about two months now and it is almost a daily occurrence #wait wait wait what about my feelings of emptiness? feeling like i have no identity?? those are pretty bad too #there is so much shit wrong with me yall <3333 #but overall i mostly just want to fix my incredible fear of talking to people #because my brain goes completely blank when i talk to most people and it makes shit so difficult #its impacted my ability to make connections as well as keep the ones i have. #so thats whats most important to me right now. ill work on the abandonment-induced toxicity after.

Scott Pilgrim is, I think, the best example I can think of for establishing a setting's Nonsense Limit. The setting's Nonsense Limit isn't quite "How high-fantasy is this". It's mostly a question of presentation, to what degree does the audience feel that they know the rules the world operates by, such that they are primed to accept a random new element being introduced. A setting with a Nonsense Limit of 0 is, like, an everyday story. Something larger than life, but theoretically taking place in our world, like your standard spy thriller action movie has a limit of 1. Some sort of hidden world urban fantasy with wizards and stuff operating in secret has a nonsense limit around 3 or 4. A Superhero setting, presenting an alternate version of our world, is a 5 or 6. High fantasy comes in around a 7 or so, "Oh yeah, Wizards exist and they can do crazy stuff" is pretty commonly accepted. Scott Pilgrim comes in at a 10. If you read the Scott Pilgrim book, it starts off looking like a purely mundane slice of life. The first hint at the fantastical is Ramona appearing repeatedly in Scott's Dreams, and then later showing up in real life. When we finally get an explanation, it's this:

Apparently Subspace Highways are a thing? And they go through people's heads? And Ramona treats this like it's obscure, but not secret knowledge. Ramona doesn't think she's doing anything weird here. At this point, it's not clear if Scott is accepting Ramona's explanation or not, things kind of move on as mundane as ever until their Date, when Ramona takes Scott through subspace, and he doesn't act like his world was just blown open or anything, although I guess that could have been a metaphor. there's a couple other moments, but everything with Ramona could be a metaphor, or Scott not recognizing what's going on. Maybe Ramona is uniquely fantastical in this otherwise normal world. And then, this happens

Suddenly, a fantastical element (A shitty local indie band finishing their set with a song that knocks out most of the audience) is introduced unrelated to Ramona, and undeniably literal. We see the crowd knocked out by Crash and The Boys. but the story doesn't linger on the implications of that, the whole point of that sequence is to raise the Nonsense Level, such that you accept it when This happens

Matthew Patel comes flying down onto the stage, Scott, who until this point is presented as a terrible person and a loser, but otherwise is extremely ordinary, proceeds to flawlessly block and counter him before doing a 64-hit air juggle combo. Scott's friends treat this like Scott is showing off a mildly interesting party trick, like being really good at darts. The establish that Scott is the "Best Fighter in the Province", not only are street-fighter battles a thing, Scott is Very Good at it, but they're so unimportant that being the best fighter in the province doesn't make Scott NOT a loser. So when Matthew Patel shows off his magic powers and then explodes into a pile of coins, we've established "Oh, this is how silly the setting gets". It's not about establishing the RULES of the setting so much as it is about establishing a lack of rules. Scott's skill at street-fighter battles doesn't translate to any sort of social prestige. Ramona can access Subspace Highways and she uses it to do a basic delivery job. It doesn't make sense and it's clear that it's not supposed to. So later on, when Todd Ingram starts throwing around telekinesis, and the explanation we're given is "He's a Vegan" , you're already so primed by the mixture of weirdness and mundanity that rather than trying to incorporate this new knowledge into any sort of coherent setting ruleset, you just go "Ah, yeah, Vegans".

This is just wishful thinking and me being silly and indulging into myself but like if my 00s HS AU ever be an actual cartoon, I envisioned it to be something like As Told by Ginger where everyone changes clothes in every episode. Of course I want it to be serial and I want everyone to develop as the story progress but also like just them changing clothes every episode just gives them more personality to me since it's pretty much them picking up the clothes themselves and it already gives me a quick idea on what kind of person they are or what clique they belong to and such

#god i wish it doesnt sound confusing to you guys but do you get me???? #i meannn the way you dress up is pretty much a peek on what kind of person you are #and also its just much fun like that my kids can afford new clothes they dont need to wear the same clothes everyday #asukaspeaker #00s highschool au
