Danny, the 'twig' Bouncer
The job was just a temporary solution. It was a means to an end. To help him handle his obsession until things were better. Until it was safe to be out again. Until he could roam around freely without fear. Until he no longer needed to lay low or be on the run. Until he could return to being Phantom.
This job helped keep his obsession somewhat sedated. Sure, it was a shady bar, but it beat working out in the open in some other way or becoming a non-ghost vigilante and risking his human persona too.
Besides people tented to underestimate him because he was a 'twig' in their eyes. The bar owner nearly didn't hire him until he easily flipped a human truck over his shoulder and threw the guy out the back door on his interview day.
But again this was just meant to be temporary. He got to fight the trouble makers and protect customers from the rowdy crowd.
At some point, the people even started cheering whenever Danny was on the clock, his coworkers even leaving the heavy hitters to him. It was kind of fun always seeing the sound looks of the big guys that didn't think Danny could throw them out the door with one hand. The owner had said something about getting more customers ever since Danny started working for him.
Danny even recognized regulars now. Tho there was this one guy with a red helmet that gave him a weird feeling. But the guy wasn't making trouble so Danny left him alone.
Besides the Bar Owner always pet his shoulder after he threw someone out. That meant he did a good job right?
Though Danny did wonder how long this temporary job would last.

Yea his Fenton luck struck again. Danny didn't know faces. The bar was a shady place but neutral zone according to the owner but there was the golden rule of not messing with Joker. Danny had agreed even tho he didn't know who that guy was.
Soo the day came a clown made trouble in the bar and no one else appeared to want to do something. So what did Danny do? His job. He punched the guy, knocked him out and threw him right out the door a little too hard into a brick wall. He might have broken a couple of that clown guys bones. Hello trauma, Freakshow greets you.
The bar was dead silent right after, everyone staring at him like he had just signed a death sentence. The owner had then pushed him out the door and muttered something about sending Danny on vacation and to return in a month if he was still alive by then.
Did that mean he was fired or got a weird kind of promotion?
Why was that guy in a furry suit staring him down now?
Also why was the red helmet regular suddenly trying to hire him for his gang?
Really Danny just wanted a simple job that sedated his obsession, this was not what he expected to happen for a job well done.

Artfight attack for @doodledrawsthings of a few of their mushroom characters. All of their mushroom beans are super precious, but these three really stuck out to me.

flint is such a nuanced character he literally cant be boiled down to a guy who had a boyfriend once and it went wrong. hes so captivating and his story is so compelling because its much more complicated than whats on the surface. who he became and the crimes he committed were not all an effort against homophobia. so much gets lost by summing it up to just that. he even says so himself in the show, that some things happened completely unrelated to that, because he is human and was in a bad place. his berserk mode was caused by him going through something truly traumatic and it took everything off the axis, including his own perception of himself, of the world, the people he considered friends, morality, justice, everything. some of the awful things he did were just awful things he did. no agenda. and that is good! because it makes him all the more realistic as a person who was hurt and lost. then theres also a good chunk of it that was brought by life leading him further into radicalization, with the anti-piracy measures becoming sterner, the presence of the maroons and intersectionality, the up close effects of colonization, nassau's occupation, the betrayals and sacrifices. reducing all of that to his sexuality is criminal. he slayed and he flopped and he did it on many different fronts and we love him for all of it. keep up

talking entirely character wise. do you think today was a bit of a wake up call for bad. do you think he heard red screaming out of their minds begging for toxic gas and thought about how they’ve lost their minds just a little bit. do you think that when he was given an immediate no when he asked where the red egg was to help them defend he understood how deep of a rift he created. do you think as he sat there silent while the rest of red cheered at killing the egg statue, he wondered if he could have pushed them a little too far. do you think that maybe, just maybe, with the red sun beating down on him in that desert, the gas mask team cheering and dancing, he felt for a single moment the consequences of his actions? that maybe, if he hadn’t started out so hostile with extreme tactics, if he hadn’t been so bloodthirsty and ruthless, if he had had just a little bit of hesitation, that his own attempts at diplomacy would have gone over better? that the rest of the teams would have listened? that red would have trusted his judgement on the egg statues, or at the very least respected him enough to honor an agreement? do you think he realizes that burning his bridges may have fucked him over?

Some food for thought for ya Big Red/Lucien simps.
Knowing a demon's name is extremely powerful, according to Lucien. When he gave us his name since he trusts you & loves you dearly, my immediate thought was:
"Oh, we're married now."

anyone here who has played rain world knows of the iterators. those shown in game are:
SOS (Sliver Of Straw) (challenge 70 of downpour)
NSH (No Significant Harassment) (shown in a cutscene/still)
SRS (Seven Red Suns) (shown in a cutscene/still)
5P (Five Pebbles) (Is in the main game)
LttM (Looks to the Moon) (Is in the main game)
Now each is characterized by the fan base (with the exception of sliver of straw as he is dead) in very different ways
Looks to the moon = Big sis moon, owner of rivulet
Five Pebbles = either child, tired of life or this single remaining braincell bouncing around in a person's head, also finds the scugs interesting especially artificer
Seven Red Suns = done with everyone's shit, good scug owner
No Significant Harassment = A major ass, A significant Harassment, annoys everyone, AND A HORRIBLE SCUG OWNER
I don't know why it works but I love it and I even made my own iterator OC cause I found the other so interesting

I will now be personally headcanoning that Bruce pulled Tim aside one day to ask his opinion on if Tim would ever consider changing or adding Alfred to his middle name(s). I've always interpreted Jack Drake as having been abusive towards Tim, due to some of the comics where he's been violent and such (Like the time he destroyed some of Tim's belongings and such when he was angry at him, or the straight up neglect when Jack and Janet went to explore the world regularly and leave Tim behind, forgot his birthday, etc), and so I feel like sometimes Tim would feel icky about keeping his middle name as 'Jackson' after his biological father (I'm surprised he ever kept 'Drake' and didn't just fully move to 'Wayne', but alas). I feel like Bruce would also be aware that Tim sometimes feels left out of the family, especially due to the early years of him and Damian's dynamic and constantly being told he was never Bruce's 'real son'. It doesn't take a lot of common sense to realise those kind of words will linger, even after the brothers have improved their relationship. I had originally thought to consider this with Damian, but he's already named after Thomas, so I feel as though Bruce would choose Tim so that he gets to both honour his second father, and let Tim know that he will always be Bruce's son and a part of the family, regardless of DNA. Tim accepts, and so his middle name becomes Alfred, instead of Jackson.
Alfred doesn't find out until he's going over some family legal documents and sees it. He cries when he does.
