Dick as Damian's third parent while also having bad parent Talia: stale, boring, relies on poor characterization of Talia. Yawn.

Dick as Damian's third parent with good mom Talia except Dick and Talia still hate each other: beautiful, talented, show stopping, never been done before, etc. They take Damian out for a day and constantly try to out do eachother in who can be the most fun. Dick takes him to the circus except the high wire act is actually the two of them doing an old Flying Grayson's routine. Talia takes him to the arcade and buys the cabinet for his favourite game right there on the spot (also she's surprisingly good at DDR. Dick gets demolished in a match with her). Damian's torn bc on the one hand he knows they're both losing themselves in the competition instead of just being in the moment with him but on the other hand. Richard and Mother are taking him to his favourite Lebanese restaurant where they plan to buy him an all you can eat buffet bc Talia thought he looked thin and Dick agreed bc he knows Bruce can't cook good meals for shit. So who is he to deny them their whims?

#dc comics #damian wayne #dick grayson #talia al ghul #good mom talia #walk with me. live in this beautiful world with me #why must we chose between good mom talia and father-brother dick? porque no los dos? #in all seriousness this is inspired by my ire at fans describing this interpretation of dick and damian as being 'fanon' #in the name of defending talias honour when like. it's canon. it's just canon. nightwing issues 16-20 show us this #obviously there's a fanonized version of that dynamic (that i am not immuned to. i love schmoopy affection okay?) #AND a version of that dynamic used to disparage talia but like. not in a way i find unique? it's used w/ bruce and damian too #and i think these versions of the characters can and should coexist. dick and talia in their get along shirt for the sake of their baby boy #<- said baby boy is a highschool freshman and fully taking advantage of the situation

Dc x dp idea 169

Danny took astronomy or some other space related class as an elective for school. It’s his finals week and he is running on energy drinks and coffee.

So. To finish his space based project he decided to go bug a hero or villain who is not human. They’d know right??

#dpxdc #tired student Danny #i feel this tho in my soul #just got all my finals done and man id of bugged an alien if i could of #Danny just wants his bed #but he has finals and projects #I’m imagining him like a freshman in college but he could still be in highschool #Danny could show up human #imagine he decided to go big ppl in the watchtower #student Danny just casually breaking into the tower and beelining it to a non human #just to ask them about where like a star is or something

How do you get characterization so PERFECT?!?!?!?!??!?!?!??!? HOW PLEASE ITS SO BEAURIFUL MY EYES TURNED TO TEARS PLEASE

i'm not sure if i'd say Perfect but thank you! accurate characterization is very important to me, and one of my favorite things to do is analyze the shit out of characters until i feel like i Know Them

#this is actually why yall havent gotten an actual welcome home fic outta me yet #i feel like i have a better grasp on everyone but mmmmm im missing important pieces to fully Understand yk #ive been fascinated with picking apart characters for years and years #i remember being a freshman in highschool deconstructing bakugo until i was like 'oh ok im the only bitch who gets him. ok' #and i have only ever been proven right and vindicated Since! #but i try i try #if im making something thats actively memey i let myself be a little lax on characterization #but the rest of the time im like This Needs To Be As On Point As I Can Manage #for myself! for others! for the Source! #rambles from the bog #something that helps me stay focused and determined #is asking myself 'how would it feel to have people mischaracterize MY brain guys' #and then my soul shrivels up and i start studying whoever im writing lmao #im always scared that im falling short... i hate writing things that are ooc...

if you've seen me post this already no you did naut anyways human elias

#ok i posted this yesterday then deleted it cause it looked kind of bad #i fixed it and its cuter now👍 #not going in the tags this time #backstory time he was basically a cartoonishly evil jock but people just went along w it cause he was hot and had a celebrity mom #kind of guy to take highschool football way too fucking seriously. WAY TOO SERIOUSLY #ough his eyes look so weird here. whatever back to teen show antagonist backstory #idk i feel like he was just a nightmare to be around. whats worse than a tiktoker. a tiktoker quarterback whos obscenely rich and cant face #any consequences cause his dad funded the school #he got normaler after he graduated but got murdered less than a year after. sorry. at least he gets to finally murder people when hes undea #i feel like 90% of what was wrong with him as a teen was because he wasnt allowed to kill people during football matches but rest assured #he def tried #the way i draw him i feel it gives more cheerleader but his dex is way too low. maybe he was in his freshman year then jumped to 6 #*6.3 when he was like 16 and got forced into the football team #hes 6.4 when he dies at 19 #word dump OVER. maybe i should fix my toyhouse #/elias #scarabocchi

It's My Ex-Blorbo

[PT: It's My Ex-Blorbo/End PT]

Was trying to see if I could draw him after 3 years, and without looking up his actual character design for ref. **also yeah the push rims are a bit small but I am not redrawing Johnny's arms again

Accessibility:

[ID from Alt Text: Several digital drawings of Johnny Joestar, blue-white color palette variant with strawberry blonde hair, from JJBA: Steel Ball Run. A close up headshot, him sitting down with his hands resting on his legs, and him in a wheelchair, smiling while holding the push-rims. There are also two small drawings of him comparing the current version used and the alternate blue/pink with blonde hair color palette. /End ID]

An in depth look at the capital of Gulfeńn, Valkor! (Buckle up, this is a long one)

Before I start I should probably clear something up: For inspiration for coming up with Elven culture, I looked at Slavic, Balkan, Hindu, and Middle Eastern influences. The easiest way to think about it is this (if anything that comes up in this post is offensive to any of these cultures, please let me know and I will try my best to fix it. I am only human, and I am an American at that, so I can only go by my research 😅):

Clothing, Music, Language, and Patterning = Balkan

Language, Music, and Clothing = Slavic

Food, Architecture, and Religion = Hindu

Architecture, Desert Culture, Food, Clothing, and Music = Middle Eastern

Don’t worry, I will give examples and visual aid to help convey what I mean!

____________________________________________

Valkor: The Capital

Gulfeńn is split into four different provinces, or states. These provinces have their own biomes, traditions, and leaders. Valkor is one of four, and is simply referred to “Western Gulfeńn” sometimes.

(Spellings will be changed throughout tho will be changed to fit what I have in mind for the elves)

Population- 4.1 million

Valkor is a unique city, in the nature of its height. Valkor is located in a part of the Ośtavlet desert that dips into a valley, where it can reaches 104 degrees on average in the summer. The elves would have baked to death. So they settled on a huge, naturally forming rock spire. These desert spikes provide great shade in the unforgiving heat, and were the prime spot for elves to carve out their cities. The Yvvińna Palace was carved directly into the rock, while the actual city was built around the outside.

After hundreds of years, the rock on the spire started to crumble and erode. Scientists have been researching a way to regrow the rocks. So far, more and more houses have to be partially or entirely held up by sturdy metal beams. It’s not too bad yet…

Around the base of Valkor is a wall, and behind the wall is the rest of the city. 

These neighborhoods are safe from heatstroke because of the shade that both the Wall and the Palace provide. Air conditioning is also free for those who live on the base (and for those who want it. Usually it’s only the human citizens who actually turn it on. Elves are adequately adapted to deal with the heat)

For those who live “On the Sky” as they say, it can get well near freezing during the night and during the winter months. The ecosystem up near the sky is more humid. More trees and plants can be found growing up there. Sometimes it even snows. Children who live on the base usually go near the top to play on the rare occasion it does. The journey from the base to the very top takes approximately 4 hours of twisty, windy roads. 

Safety rails have been installed after many instances of people falling off the sharp cliff sides. 

The Valkorian Throne is the highest throne of Gulfeńn, since the city was founded by The Oj Dolo (in the books, known as The Great Erlking). The Oj Dolo was seen as a sort of god in his own right, the equivalent to the Christian prophet Jesus, or the Islamic prophet Muhammad. Like both, he was a real life figure but ascended to legend.

(Quick note on Oj Dolo: imagine my surprise when I found out that “Dolo” is not only an actual Polish name, but also Oj Dolo is a song! I swear I had no knowledge of this until a month after I chose the name. I chose Oj as the prefix because I knew it meant “Oh”)

Thus, any Czar that followed in his footsteps, and took the throne, was seen as a mortal god (kind of like Egyptian pharaohs). Most elves will refer to the Czar with the prefix “Oj” (said like “oi”), as it is seen as respectful to do so for “god mortals”. This includes the royal family, and the Dzikaję (child of the Czar).

As for the elven goddesses, I will talk more in depth about them later (I don’t wanna overwhelm anyone with info lol), but for now just know that they have two: Seińn of the Sun, and Favšta of the Moon.

BONUS: in my version of the story, The Elf King, or Oj Czar Ykoda, was of the royal bloodline and was in an arranged marriage with the daughter of the Duchess of Stęńgard, Epopyja.

Also, just to get it out of the way real fast, here Lugźer (Luger), and Tręlis (Trellis) are cousins not brothers. And I have big plans for both of them >:)c

Here are some reference images of what I think Valkorians might dress like (all taken from Pinterest):

Don’t worry about their ears! They poke out of their head coverings with ease, and still have plenty of room to move

Last note, I was thinking that for the Oj Czar, he could wear a kokoshnik along with his mask:

(Credit to Alena Abramova for these amazingly intricate dolls!)

So his silhouette is still long and flowy, but distinct and intimidating

Next up will probably be a look at our main characters, and then I’ll probably do a breakdown of the timeline <3

Daniel is the gossiping pick-me girl, Haakon & Mette-Marit are the jock and cheerleader couple inconsiderably making out in the middle of the hallway, Estelle is the theatre and anime/k-drama kid, Oscar is the innocent freshman, Victoria is the exhausted, over-achieving student with no social life and the woman on the far right is the ignored loner
