To be honest. DCxDP where the reason Danny meets the bats is Ace the Bat-hound
Like, just think about it for a second. Danny is in Gotham for college, or maybe he just moved out to find a city where having mad scientist parents isn’t actually that unusual.
He can see ghosts.
The ghosts know this.
Now he’s getting harassed left and right by spirits trying to get closure. Fine, whatever, most of them are a one-and-done type deal, and the amount of ghosts trying to get his help steadily decreases.
Except for this one very stubborn dog.
It just keeps showing up and leading him to crime scenes! He doesn’t know how many “anonymous tips” he can call in to the cops before they trace his phone! And this dog, this incredibly good boy, will not stop trying to help the city. He’s never met anyone with such a strong sense of justice, let alone a dog. Can dogs even have a moral compass?
And so Danny just accepts the fact that Ace isn’t going anywhere and becomes his reluctant sidekick/dedicated medium. He leans into the whole thing, dressing up in a mix of traditional magic-user attire and accessories that pay homage to the ghost dog.
He becomes somewhat well known. The psychopomp detective following around the shadowy figure of a German Shepard? That’s unusual! That’s weird! I mean, it’s not the weirdest thing in Gotham, sure, but he’s a new vigilante and he’s got a ghost dog that people can only see when it’s around him. Someone’s gonna notice.
Damian, as Robin, is the first to reach out to him.
Ace doesn’t know Damian but he does know a Robin, and while this isn’t his Robin, he’s still friendlier than usual. Danny’s panicking because oh god the bats are here and also is this kid gonna steal my ghost dog, Damian is absolutely delighted by Ace, and Ace is just happy to see a Robin again.
Damian decides that the psychopomp isn’t a danger to anyone, and there’s no reason to put this encounter into his reports, really, and perhaps Danny can help with some of his cases in the future.
Danny is sweating bullets because Damian basically tells him that he’ll keep him secret as long as he gets to play with Ace. Ace is happy that he’s finally getting some bat affiliated crime-fighting assistance.
And so, Danny is now both Ace AND Damian’s reluctant assistant. At least whenever he’s in trouble, he can always call a middle schooler to help him.
(Is Robin even in school? He’s out patrolling damn near every night, and he stays out late as hell. Does he have a bedtime? He should.)
Eventually it gets to the point where Damian is going over to Danny’s house. When he first sees it, he has a damn bitch you live like this moment, to which Danny responds that not everyone has the money to afford a nice place. Damian counters that he could at least take the time to clean up, and Danny replies that he’s working, going to school, and being a vigilante assistant to a ghost dog, something’s got to give.
Danny nearly has a heart attack when he checks his bank account the next day and sees that someone transferred him 10,000 dollars.
And so they get into a routine. Danny and Damian fight crime with Ace at night, and occasionally Damian stops by during the day to play with Ace and have Danny help with his homework.
(Damian is smart enough to do it on his own, but some of the instructions are written incredibly confusingly, and he would never admit to needing help to his family. Danny is just glad that the kid is in school and cares about his education, blissfully unaware that he’s basically emotionally adopted him.)
Damian is used to being in Danny’s company.
Eventually, when going over a case with the family, Damian absentmindedly remarks that he’ll have to ask Danny about some of the clues that they might be missing. Nightwing asks who he means and Damian makes a face like he just swallowed a lemon.
Cue shitstorm.
Who is “Danny?” Why is Damian willing to ask for help from anyone, much less someone outside of the family? Does he know who Damian is? Has Damian been compromised? What the hell is going on?
Damian now has to explain that Danny is the psychopomp with the ghost dog who he might have met hunted down while on patrol and conveniently not mentioned, but he’s not a bad person, really, and he lets him play with Ace, and he’s been quite helpful on certain cases due to his ability to talk to ghosts.
Bruce insists that the family meet Danny. Damian, hoping that he won’t just skip town the second he hears the news, relents.
Danny is surprisingly eager to meet the bats, considering his earlier fears.
Damian, blissfully unaware of what’s coming, sets a time and place to meet.
Once everyone is there, he gives Bruce the earful of a lifetime.
Robin is in middle school! Danny knows that there’s no way to stop the boy from going on patrol, but you could at least shift his schedule so he gets enough sleep on school nights! Does the Bat even know where he is half the time?! (No) And why isn’t he comfortable asking his family for help with both cases and homework? Did they ever even notice how much time he was spending at Danny’s house? If Danny was a bad person, he could have seriously hurt the poor boy! Shame on you!
Nightwing is mortified that Damian didn’t trust him enough to tell him about any of this. Red Hood is laughing his ass off, because yeah Danny is making good points but he’s also chewing out the literal Batman. Tim is recording the whole thing. Steph is delighted by the absolute gall of this Danger Twink™️, and already planning to add him to several groupchats. Damian is more embarrassed than he’s ever been in his entire life.
You, he points to Nightwing, did your academic life feel supported when you were a Robin? Nightwing is too stunned to speak. Red Hood, eternal shit-stirrer, says that oh, we all prioritized patrol over our education, that’s just how it is. Red Robin actually dropped out of high school to avoid distractions, did you know that?
Danny honest-to-god shrieks at this.
He finishes his angry rant and leaves, everyone too stunned to stop him.
And as it turns out, Tim wasn’t the only person recording the whole thing.
The entire internet is blowing up with Psychopomp The Danger Twink™️’s rant. People are taking sides. Things are getting messy. Red Hood literally admitting on-camera to previously being a Robin is somehow not the main focus here.
Eventually someone connects some dots from the video, as well as stories circling the internet about the psychopomp. A ghost dog named Ace, who is the literal only reason that the psychopomp is fighting crime at all, which seems incredibly fond of Nightwing and Robin.
A crime-fighting dog who wants constant attention from both the current and original Robin.
Oh my god, Ace the Bat-hound died and became a crime-fighting ghost.
And, somehow, that’s still not the strangest thing going on in Gotham.

like. okay yeah I have my own criticisms of bourgeois academia as an instrument of class rule, but some of this is a bit silly. a lot of people are acting as though academia refers solely to like, literature degrees.
like at a fundamental level, yes, the purpose of a degree is as a barrier to access - but that is not in and of itself always a negative thing! the proletariat also requires the ability to produce, assess, and verify intellectuals. all the 'why the fuck should I care if the student across from me cheated on their tests, never attended class, etc' talk falls apart when the question being answered by their possession of a degree is 'should this person be permitted to design and construct buildings'! fundamentally, yes, someone cheating on their exams devalues a degree, because the confidence in qualification granted by that degree is lessened - not to mention the inherent danger of a fraudulent qualification! (strangely, this argument hasn't been extended to driving license exams yet, though I'm sure the inevitable libertarian convergence isn't far away.)
in all the discussion of burning down the local polytechnical, i have seen vague mention to academia existing as a barrier to access, some scant reference to discrimination against poor and minority students, but zero mention of the actual role of bourgeois academia and the intelligentsia in upholding bourgeois rule! it's all simply coming from the point of view of the restrictiveness being bad because it prevents people from getting high-paying jobs or the like, and the vague notion of elitism. again, with all abolition discourse here, given the lack of any real class analysis, the question is - are we talking solely within the context of capitalism, of existing bourgeois institutions? if so, why? why limit our positions to capitalist realism, to an essentially liberal discourse? if not - then how have we not reconciled the real, practical value of these technologies (mass education, examination, qualification) with their specific characteristics under capitalism?
everything has both positive and negative aspects. bourgeois class rule itself, even, was once a truly progressive thing. we can acknowledge the negative side of bourgeois academia without ignoring its positive side - and still take it on the whole that it, along with all bourgeois institutions, should be torn down and replaced by proletarian ones. that, stripped of their capitalist character, these are useful barriers.
Fundamentally, the point is this: why is our focus on attacking the barriers keeping us from class mobility, from high-paying jobs, themselves; instead of on attacking the existence of the high-paying, middle-class jobs that themselves characterise a fundamentally useful, practical system like examination as an instrument of class rule?

reminding myself on this busy morning that i also have dreams of taking piano lessons & singing lessons & also honing my writing skills & absorbing as many books as i used to when i was a kid & at the very least taking up cute tennis dates & dabbling into art & just becoming an artistic generalist. also reminding myself that there are pre-meds out there who managed to pursue something they’re passionate in (some are even professional athletes) & still excelled in medicine & if they can do it so can I

i'm lowkey obsessed with mayhem april's look (as well as how everything else is designed tbh), although i still cannot tell how old she's supposed to be. fingers crossed she's older and in her 20s again
also back when rise was getting announced i drew my own april design and she had red dreds and freckles, so I am totally taking credit for that :P

I literally love Dokja and Joonghyuk's ship dynamic. It's so funny. They're so whipped for each other and yet on the outside they're like blank faces, murderous looks, rude to each other, insults the other every two seconds -
Can y'all imagine a professor au where the entire student body is just convinced these two are bitter enemies, only to realize in the end that they've been married for 20 years?
They didn't take each other's last name. The confusion is understandable. And the students are in disbelief even after they realize, so it's like:
Student: Professor Kim, I thought you hated him?
Dokja, with an absolute straight face: oh I do, feel free to tell that sunfish bastard that I'm going to smother him in his sleep tonight for the insurance payoff
Another Student: Professor Yoo, what do you really think of Professor Kim?
Joonghyuk, squinting down at his marking that he's completing in the university cafe: he's a sewer rat and I haven't known a second of peace since I met him 23 years ago
Kim Dokja: [wandering past on his way to the counter, absently giving Joonghyuk a kiss on the back of the head without looking away from his phone]
Joonghyuk, blank faced: Disgusting
Dokja halfway across the room: [flips Joonghyuk off over his shoulder]

Revisiting this extra about Falin wanting makeup and
Tumblr media
I didn't think much of her scrambling through her papers at first but. Knowing that she used to be one of the top researchers I'm like... Damn how busy was she that she wasn't sure if she'd have either weekend days free. How packed was that schedule all the time.
How many times did she have to say no to Falin meekly asking to spend time together, that she would be this happy to say yes....
Tumblr media
Look at that smile. That's so sweet what the hell

hi! i'm severely dyscaluliac, and i absolutely adore all of your work, but i'm struggling so hard to figure out the maths behind the prey calorie to feeding cats thing. i understand that if the calorie amount is over 350, it'll feed more than one cat, but i don't have a bloody clue how to figure out how many specifically. Do i have to divide the calorie amount by the 350? Input would be greatly appreciated, apologies for the dyscaluliac rambling, i've been at this for an hour and i have a headache.
OH HEY, I also have dyscalculia! I'm always coming up with ways to help myself visualize this sort of thing. I've got you bro.
Think of 350 like a container for a single cat. Every day you have to fill 350 calories for that individual. Since 350 is just 50 seven times, you can make a beaker with seven notches.
Tumblr media
(It always helps me to break things down into multiples of 5 and estimate around them.)
So, when you "fill" this beaker with 350 calories, your warrior is fed! The spillover from a full beaker can feed another cat.
So, if your food item was 400 (350 + 50) calories, that feeds one cat and fills up a single notch on the next "beaker." Whenever you have a big food item, you can subtract 350 from it until you reach a number below 350. When you divide a number by 350, that's what it's doing.
So if you had 3,500 / 350, your answer is 10. You can feed ten cats. 350 goes into 3,500 ten times.
When it's not a "clean" division and you have all the jumbled numbers at the end, like 3,600 / 350 = 10.285714, just pay attention to the first number after the period. It feeds 10.2 cats. The .2 means the eleventh cat is 20% fed.
Whenever you need to figure out how much food a group will need, take the population of the group, and multiply by 350.
If you have 3 cats in the group, that equation is 3 x 350. I punched that right into a calculator, and got 1,050. You need 1,050 calories to feed three cats.
Though, also remember how this functionally plays out.
If your cats are eating whole prey, it's not like Dudeheart is going to eat everything except the tail to minmax caloric efficiency. He's going to eat the whole thing. These sorts of calculations apply best to a Clan that's making soup or has someone doling out rations.
But, anyway, try making drawings to help visualize it, if it doesn't make sense. I hope this helps-- these are the hints that I use when numbers aren't making sense in my head.
