#in defence of fantasy

[im-totally-not-an-alien-2]

Sephiroth is accidentally summoned to Amity Park by the GIW who were trying to summon Phantom to capture him.

Phantom comes to his aid. Thinking he's a ghost due to his ghost sense activating due to all the mako in Sephiroths body. The silver haired psycho was at first amused by all of this up until the people in white started going on and on about how they are with the government and going to capture Phantom and do awful painful experiments on him and possibly make an army out of him and Sephiroth had heard enough. For a spit second, he saw himself in that child.

By the time he calmed down the only sound around him was the sizzling of half melted rubble and the crackle of downed live electrical wires. Phantom was staring at him in shock from the large glowing cage he was trapped in. The silverette was prepared for a lot of responses to the slaughter the child had just witnessed. Cheering, tears of gratitude, people calling him inhuman, a monster, but nothing like this kid. He simply asked, "Are you okay?"

This child was an enigma. Even after freeing him from his prison with a single swipe of Masamune he made no moves to flee. No matter how many insults or threats he made the white haired boy stayed. Appearently he had defeated the child in one on one combat and as a unattended ederich child spirit, Sephiroth was now his legal guardian. Usually he would be apposed but Mother was whispering to him in the back of his mind, cooing over her new grandchild and praising her son for getting such a good catch. If he were a lesser man he would have sighed.

Phantom soon revealed he had no where to go and certainlycouldn't return to his biological parents. His parents were evil mad scientists that attacked him once they learned what thier experiments had done to thier son. They wanted to study him in perhaps the cruelest ways possible. The "ghost zone" or "Infinite Realms" as its truly called was filled with his enemies and had no way to nourish his living half, but the living world had no way to nourish his ghost half aside from portals and harvesting ectoplasm. Aside from portals being both rare and fleeting, harvesting ectoplasm is no easy task especially when dodging evil government groups.

Phantom would have to find a new dimension to live in. One with ectoplasm readily available for harvest, but first they needed to tie up loose ends here. Phantom went into hiding on Sephiroths orders and the child quickly obeyed. The silver General on the other hand went on a warpath, destroying the laboratories and portals and the people who made them.

Phantom, now in his living form was saying goodbye to his friends and sister giving them wierd PHSs he had modified so they can communicate with him beyond dimensions (impressive) and portal guns he had made (again Sephiroth was impressed) so that they could visit him from time to time. He promised to send them the dimensions coordinates once they got there.

It wasn't long until they were in a dimensions they both liked floating above an outright filthy mako pool in some soft of cave system. Danny wasted no time busting out machinery and hooking it up to the Mako pool and purifying it.

This is, of course, when Batman gets a camera notification that someone is messing with Gothams Lazarus Pit.

Fic featuring: Sephiroth becoming a father mentor for Danny, Bruce being adoption blocked, Sephiroth agreeing to abide by Batmans "ridiculous" no killing policy and them making him pseudo regret it by carving the Joker up like a Christmas turkey. Hood got it on his helmets visual recording and he sent Sephiroth flowers, Danny casually vibing with the bats and birds until he does something blatantly eldrich, Danny asking his new mentor "if I grow out my hair will you teach me how to take care of it?", Sephiroth and Phantom just vibing, ptsd representation, Sephiroth seeing himself in this kid and deciding to be the savior that never came for himself.

With apologies to @pangolinheart - I will try to think of something actually useful to help you tomorrow, when I am hopefully not quite so tired and silly!

You know what, two out of three of the women in this household being ill is really shedding light on the patriarchal structure of this family

My mum's going through a prolapse and I've got a severe flare of ME/CFS, and it's still us doing all the work.

As my dad plays guitar and video games and my brother (yes the nazi one, they're still refusing to deal with that) sits yelling at his mates on Fortnite.

It really is something.

#In defence of my little sister she's nine #why we need feminism #feminism #radical feminism #My mum insists it's the fault of us kids which is interesting because; #1. My sister is 9 #2. I really do do quite a lot around here. It's just that she assumes she did it or doesn't notice. #3. Her husband is Right There on final fantasy vii not giving a single shit™ #Just interesting yano

"The book has seen immediate success in 2023, debuting as a number one New York Times bestselling novel. Readers love the irreverent fantasy world and the witty characters trying to make a living in a villain’s evil lair. Sure, the villain equips the lair with a top-notch break room, HR, and healthcare, but there are still the trappings of a villain’s daily activities, reminding employees they work for a bad guy. If you, too, can’t get enough of this world, read on for eight funny, romantic, and fantastical books like Assistant to the Villain!

The following books like Assistant to the Villain give readers who are eagerly awaiting book two something to read in the meantime. They are a combination of fantasy romance books that have a dash of action, romance, and comedy to keep any Hannah Nicole Maehrer fan happy. I am head over heels for the odd little subgenre myself, so I guarantee these books like Assistant to the Villain will hit the spot."

Yes, that's "all you need to know about him." We certainly aren't going to talk about he'd saved people's lives multiple times (including those of the person who had kept his silence when he was being sexually assaulted), and sacrificed his own in the end.

Typical anti-Snape poster for you.

novels i think are better than the [redacted] anime:

novels i have yet to read in full:

#chu<3 i’m sorry for being a fake fan~~~ <3 #in my defence l&k dropped on a worknight so i was only able to skim it briefly #that and i was tired and the ~fantasy segments~ threatened to send me to dreamland so there was that too ig #as for heroine ikusei… i’m avoiding it for the pettiest of reasons lmaooooooooooo no spoilers pls #but either way. i think the novels are a thousand times better than the [redacted] anime. i mean heroine ikusei has ascana!!!!! #and the l&k novel has ft4!!!!!! #which is reason enough to make these novels better than the [redacted] anime in their own right #come to think of it… i have most of the novels in one form or another… hm. wild to think about~~~ #my favourite novel is still sekoi though <3 kanamisa my beloveds <3333 #it is suiyoubi my dudes

My OCs got isekai'd to Naruto or something

#sketch #fantasy novel tag #rani would hate so so much #keira would be more curious but dealing with child soldiers is not something she enjoys #also rani usually do not fight #keira is very good in defence but so much in attack #she will also call kakashi 'poor child' #and ask who cursed his eye

urgently need to watch gotg 1&2 to scavenge thanos characterisation. and maybe even read some comics. hmm

#space viking tag #i don't rlly enjoy him in the mcu. but. i cld fix him. #and i intend to. #i also need to find some gothic fantasy books and mafia movies so i can steal their vibes #apologies to james g*nn's irreverent vision but im doing my damnedest to make this sincere and aesthetically pleasing #and in my defence. comic!thanos notoriously wants to seduce death herself. can't get gother than that

Yet More Random Anagram Nonsense.

It's time for another entry in the utterly ridiculous series that absolutely nobody requested!

Makhali Khatayin of @dragonsongmakhali promotes the importance of camouflage in millinery, suggesting we should wear "Mainly A Khaki Hat". Also she yearns to be not only a powerful leader, but an accomplished conversationalist "Hi I Am A Talky Khan!". There is also "Ha! A Kinky Ham Tail!", but we probably ought to draw a modest veil over that.

Jess Varlineau of @sasslett implores us to salvage the magical symbols used in penitentiaries - "Save Jail Runes!" She also enjoys dancing vigorously under the stars with her "Lunar Sea Jives". However the implications of "Injure Veal Ass" should probably be left unexplored.

Nahte'to Vhia of @lookbluesoup is rightly proud of his bronzed physique - "I Have Hot Tan". He also makes strange promises to colonies of insects through his "Ant Hive Oath". Although we are ignoring any unfair and inaccurate inferences from the fact that poor Nahte's name is an anagram of "That Naive Ho".

Yloise Coneillants of @yloiseconeillants provides us with the knowledge that everything is "Celestially Onions", which sounds quite profound. Although she is also quite rude whilst putting on corsets - "I Lace So Insolently". Perhaps most tellingly of all she demands to be allowed to act badly in public - "Let One Sin Socially!"

Leonidas Corvell of @healersadjust wants us to save our resources and to see "All Oil Conserved". He wisely advises us to break off contact with the toxic people in our lives - "Call No Evildoers". Possibly, if said toxic people make an appearance, he could frighten them off with his "Old Loin Cleavers".

August Mercer of @furys-mercy does not fear electric shocks from tinkering with magitek - merely a "Cute Arm Surge" after all. However, given his penchant for drinking, it is hard to believe he would "Agree Rum Cuts". And I am going absolutely nowhere near either "Greater Mucus" or "Argue Rectums".

Apologies once again for visiting such silliness upon you and your lovely OCs. Thank you for indulging me!

Why is one of the funniest passtimes trying to figure out the biology lore of the vampires that exist in your character universe

Like legit a couple of months ago I went on an unsurprisingly unhinged ramble in the gc I'm in w my friends about whether vampires can or cannot shit which ended in the few vampire ocs I have being grouped into shitters and nonshitters (all depending on whether they're from a pure bloodline or a hybrid) then just a few minutes ago I saw a screencap of a cute little vampire ship idea post has caused all the vampires, hybrid or otherwise, to be invisible in mirrors.

One of said vampires is a drag queen with incredible make-up skills.

This means the only explanation is that he had a particularly helpful little brother.

And by particularly helpful I mean:

#apologies for the shite art it took me like. 5 minutes to sketch whoops #did put some effort into the colouring though to try make it a bit better looking buuuut it's still lazy as hell.. oh well #funnily enough the little fella ends up needing his brother to teach him how to apply makeup later in life bc he gets into streaming #and unfortunately for him cameras don't exactly pick up on his presence lol #shitty art #lore(?? does this even constitute as lore????) dumping #sort of a shitpost #vampire #vampires #god I'm so sorry #no I will not atone for my sins #IN MY DEFENCE this level of brain (dys)function is not my choice #I'm autistic and love speculative biology n fantasy shit #If I wasn't the one thinking this weird ass shit up it'd be someone else in the same boat as me #if it makes anyone who sees this feel any better I will try not to do any more species development for my main OC universe's vampires

My OC Zephyr Angelite (yes, seriously) from a roleplay I have together with @sjazna. He’s a secretary/reluctant assassin who, through a series of fascinating events, ends up a skypirate instead.

Just a simple sketch because I wanted to see what he looks like when he’s grown his hair out a little and his freckles have become more prominent.

#Art #OCs #Zephyr #His name is SPECTACULAR #And in his defence #He lives in a world that's basically like a Final Fantasy game #So people are bound to have funny names
