Interesting comment from author of new book:
"Going through the transcripts reminded Gaines of the long shadow cast by Lennon. “I didn’t realise how sensitive the other Beatles were to John’s opinion. Paul worried about what John would say and was still longing for his friendship. [...] Those interviews were done before John’s death and Paul’s heart was broken, even then. It wasn’t just the break-up of the Beatles. It was more personal than that.”

Okay so it's kinda glossed over often but Danny becoming the Ghost King was kinda a big deal for the greater universe. He's the new king of an entire dimension of the afterlife which makes Jazz and Elle the princesses of the Infinite Realms. Unlike previous kings he doesn't just stick to his plane, but rather he meddles in the living world. In the eyes of the players of the universe that means that getting an alliance with Danny is very valuable. No one wants to be gauche and send wedding alliance paperwork while none of the royal family are open to courting so everyone is watching and waiting.
Not knowing about the intergalactic interdimensional political Damocles sword hanging over her head Jazz moves to Gotham, meets Jason, and starts flirting with him. The day after their first official date Jazz wakes up to 37 letters from potential suitors. Danny woke up to several hundred letters about setting up discussions for marriage alliances. The Justice League is suddenly dealing with a shit ton of envoys from various planets all trying to get to Gotham. Bruce is pissed that his city is being targeted for reasons unknown. Jason is pretty sure that he's going to shoot someone by the end of this. Jazz is considering eloping to Vegas.

I desperately need a fic with a 'fake lovers' trope but where they don't fall in love.
For example
Ginny x Dean
Where Dean x Seamus is the actual ship
Tumblr media
But Ginny wants Harry to be jealous, and Dean wants a way to forget about Seamus.
Tumblr media
In the end Dean x Seamus start dating after Seamus gets upset and confesses.
Ginny gives up on Harry. Harry realises he likes Ginny after the fact. Maybe they end up together in 6th year, maybe not.
Canon compliant as much as possible but also not at the same time. Iykyk, I don't even know tbh
I will probably have to write this myself, unless someone wants to do it for me.

Please.
When will the day come when someone writes a Danny Phantom, Scooby doo, and Shazam (DC Captain Marvel) crossover?
I
I want it
I want to see a story where the mystery gang investigate a string of phantom thief burglaries that turns out to be an actual phantom stealing back their old belongings to resurrect their ancient and evil master from the dead to bring the world to rot, which leads them to Amity park to catch the phantom at their next heist and accidentally catch Danny Phantom instead. Hilarity and shenanigans ensue. Danny Teams up with the Mystery Gang and when the last heist is figured out to happen in Fawcett City in their famous museum district, they set out to catch and stop the phantom.
By the time they get there, signs of the magic/supernatural ritual is taking place and ghosts of all kinds are rising from the ground in Fawcett to wreck havoc. Luckily, Billy Batson, AKA, Captain Marvel just got out of school and ready to help these weird teens kick some evil phantom thief behind.
When it's all over and the day is saved, Danny earns a position as a member of the JL thanks to Captain Marvel vouching for him, and the Scooby Gang are now consultant detectives for the JL whenever needed.
Please.
I want this.
So bad.
Please don't tell me I have to feed myself....

FFXIV Romance Novel Challenge (Cora/Seiryu)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
VillainValntine over on Twitter organised an #XIVRomanceCoverChallenge to create a fake front and back cover parodying those romance novels that we all know and love. This is my first entry featuring Cora and Seiryu!
The fake blurb reads as follows: (also in the alt text)
It started with a contract to assassinate the second most powerful man in Kugane… But the meticulous plan to kill the Daimyo’s right-hand man soon unravelled as the otherworldly forces of the Four Lords were summoned to protect the castle and strike down the assailants. In the ensuing chaos, Cora, a mercenary on employ of the Black Market dealer Hancock, was spirited away to the realm of the Gods where he was to be judged for his transgression against the divine order of the Emperor. Soon he found himself under the sharp piercing gaze of Seiryu, the powerful snake auspice who guarded the Eastern skies. To his surprise Cora found no swift retribution from the irascible guardian. Instead he became an instrument of Seiryu’s will by day… and lay constricted amongst his serpentine limbs by night; to pleasure the Fourth Lord as he saw fit, to take and be taken in whichever form his captor wished. It should have terrified him, sent him scurrying to escape at the earliest opportunity. Yet the feel of snake skin sliding against his body, smooth and sensual, electrified his senses, and the beautiful visage of an ethereal Elezen haunted his every waking hour. Can Cora tip the scales back in his favour and free himself, or will he let Seiryu slither deep into his heart of hearts?

What about Dron teen pregnancy?
Kinda want this. For the cuteness, for the drama, for the angst. The character exploration.
Like, I doubt Arthur is gonna be any better than Lucius if his son gets a Malfoy pregnant. Arthur is already rather harsh towards Percy in the books for all that I know.
I’m so damn curious what people would do with this prompt! I need it! I love Drarry, but Dron…! Secret or even non secret Drarry relationship is, like, one thing. But Dron relationship? Dron as fathers? Dron Hogwarts time? Simply Dron drama?
Also it’s kinda Romeo and Juliette, isn’t it? (Never read Romeo and Juliette lol)
PS: Dronarry at some part is optional, but I need this to at least in the beginning focus on Dron.

I Can't Remember the Title
I read a synopsis for a book and I cannot remember the title. Does anyone recognize this book? I really want to read it.
It's a historical romance. The heroine was in an unhappy marriage and her husband dies. She does not want a mourning period to interfere with her sister's coming out so she puts him on ice and tells no one. Then his twin brother shows up and reveals that he is the actual duke (?) and his brother stole his title/identity.

Can Zeus Really Escape Fate?
Thanks to my rewatching/listening to Red's videos on the Overly Sarcastic Productions youtube channel, I have (re)learned something interesting that I think would be really cool to explore.
Thanks to my rewatching/listening to Red’s videos on the Overly Sarcastic Productions youtube channel, I have (re)learned something interesting that I think would be really cool to explore. According to his parents, Zeus is/was Fated to be overthrown by the second child of his first wife, the oceanic nymph Metis. She was prophecized to have children who were more clever and powerful than he was.…

You guys rlly don't realise how much knowledge is still not committed to the internet. I find books all the time with stuff that is impossible to find through a search engine- most people do not put their magnum opus research online for free and the more niche a skill is the less likely you are to have people who will leak those books online. (Nevermind all the books written prior to the internet that have knowledge that is not considered "relevant" enough to digitise).
Whenever people say that we r growing up with all the world's knowledge at our fingertips...it's not necessarily true. Is the amount of knowledge online potentially infinite? Yes. Is it all knowledge? No. You will be surprised at the niche things you can discover at a local archive or library.

"A story doesn't need a theme in order to be good" I'm only saying this once but a theme isn't some secret coded message an author weaves into a piece so that your English teacher can talk about Death or Family. A theme is a summary of an idea in the work. If the story is "Susan went grocery shopping and saw a weird bird" then it might have themes like 'birds don't belong in grocery stores' or 'nature is interesting and worth paying attention to' or 'small things can be worth hearing about.' Those could be the themes of the work. It doesn't matter if the author intended them or not, because reading is collaborative and the text gets its meaning from the reader (this is what "death of the author" means).
Every work has themes in it, and not just the ones your teachers made you read in high school. Stories that are bad or clearly not intended to have deep messages still have themes. It is inherent in being a story. All stories have themes, even if those themes are shallow, because stories are sentences connected together for the purpose of expressing ideas, and ideas are all that themes are.

god imagine logging on one day and learning:
the amv you made for a relatively niche ship a couple years ago has gotten a huge spike in views out of nowhere
a massive youtuber apparently stole it to put in his video essay because he just couldn't be bothered to watch the actual show???
the only reason people know about this is because some guy dedicated half of a 4-hour long video essay to calling the guy out for never having an original idea in his life.
like genuinely. how do you even begin to react to that
Edit: I am not the op of the amv!!! That is someone else!!! Please don’t spread misinformation!!!
Actual op’s (who is not me) reaction to this:
