Okay so I have major writers block but I have to share my LOTR idea with yall. And I'm almost certain I am breaking so much cannon lore with the idea but I wanna do it anyway because I can. So please do not correct me, I know I'm wrong just have fun with it.

So here is my idea.

The reader is someone from here and ends up in Middle Earth. Elrond found her and put some of his blood in her to make her immortal. She technically is an elf but looks like a human. The orcs have been chasing after her for thousands of years. so Elrond, to keep her safe, sends her off to Mirkwood to stay with Thranduil. She hates it and manages to sneak out and join the dwarves on their adventures. They don't know she has elven blood in her until they meet with Elrond in Rivendell.

The scene where they are in Rivendell is where my newest idea is placed. Elrond pulls her aside and states that they (Elrond, Thranduil, Gandalf, and Galadriel) haven't been honest with her and have finally decided to open up about her true origin.

Also, all of this is to the song Ptolomaea by Ethel Cain (https://youtu.be/aLy27Xo-gos?si=AcO8odVHGrtgKGIp) Mainly the last part where the darker voice is talking... Art of Elven Sauron below is by Csanikainferna

Elrond eyed you, hesitant with how much to say and how much to show. "I haven't been honest with you... How old do you think you are?"

Your eyebrows furrowed and your eyes slid to Gandalf standing beside the fountain. The three of you were outside in the courtyard, the moonlight shining down and illuminating his gray hair. "I'm around 3,000 years old..." you trailed off as you looked back to Elrond who only stared at you blankly as he gnawed on his lip. "Who found you?"

"You did, what are these questions??" you bit back, nerves finally eating away at you as dread fell over your senses. Elrond sighed before moving towards you, "I should have done this a long time ago, but I was afraid doing so would put you in danger-"

You stepped back away from him, hand coming up to stop him from advancing. "I'm scared-"

"3,000 years ago I took your memories away. I'm going to give them back. All you need to remember is that he won't hurt you... Do you trust me?"

You were frozen but slowly felt yourself nod at the one person you trusted more than anyone else on this continent. His fingers came up and rested on your forehead, "You're safe, I'll be here when you come back-"

Darkness sucked you in before he had a chance to finish his sentence. Your eyes blinked open, blearily looking around the dark space around you. Rocks stabbed into your skin and a terrible heat was making it hard to breathe. Suddenly, ugly faces hovered over you and you gasped in fright as the orcs hauled you up from the ground. Your feet were kicking and you screamed out for them to let you go as they dragged you to the castle. It had dawned on you rather swiftly that you were in Mordor.

Fear coursed through your veins as large doors opened before you, showcasing a large room with a man sitting rigidly on the throne. It felt as if the wind had been knocked out of you at the sight of the blonde man before you. You didn't know how and you didn't know why, but he felt familiar.

He felt like home.

"Why hello there... What might your name be?"

You knew who he was, knew him as the dark lord. He was the nightmare mothers would tell their children about when they were misbehaving. He was murderous. A monster.

And yet, all you felt when looking up at him was peace, as if you had been searching for him for many millennia and you finally found him.

"I'm-"

The scene shifted and suddenly multiple images and moments flashed before your very eyes. Tears started to stream down your face as you took in just how much the feared man loved you. You had begged him to give up his desire for power and control, questioning if he really loved you. That argument seemed to anger him, because he loved you more than anything, and his power would be shared with you.

The both of you would rule the world.

The scenes continued to flash quickly as the conversations morphed into a high-pitched scream before it all went silent and you were looking down at your peacefully sleeping body that was wrapped in black silk sheets. The door to the room opened and you whirled around in fright.

From the darkness emerged Elrond and it finally dawned on you that you weren't saved from Sauron.

You were taken from him.

You stepped in front of your sleeping body but Elrond moved through you as if you didn't exist, only reminding you that this was a memory.

A memory that was stolen from you.

"Oh my... What... Who is she?" Another voice came from the doorway and you knew it was one of Elrond's generals. "I thought she was a myth... But I can already see his magic wearing off... If we don't give her something, she won't last through the night..."

Your eyebrows furrowed as you looked over their shoulder and you noticed the color from your face draining. Elrond scooped you up in his arms, "Gandalf can transfer some of my life force to her, but we must hurry" he said swiftly as they moved out of the bedroom.

The scenes morphed again before flashing, showing you the memories you were allowed to remember. From waking up in Rivendell, acclimating to immortality, being transported to Mirkwood, meeting Thorin, to all the way up to now where you were on the ground kneeling in front of Elrond. Tears streaming down your face as he held you close.

You tilted your head down at the sight, confused as to why you weren't in your own body still, but you would soon get your answer. Your head fell backward, mouth opening as a scream ripped from your throat. Your chest lifted up into the air as if you were being possessed.

The scream cut off, leaving you all in silence. Gandalf was gripping his chest in disbelief as Elrond stroked your cheek with his thumb. "Y/n-"

Your head snapped forward, e/c eyes now blazing red, the same red of the lovers they stole you from.

"Y/n, wake up-" Elrond stated firmly as he tried to shake you out of it.

"I am no good nor evil, simply I am and I have come to take what is mine" The dark tone coming from your lips had you reeling back in fear, realization dawning on you that you had indeed been possessed.

Elrond paled at the words as my possessed lips slipped up into a snarling grin. He opened his mouth to curse at the dark lord in your body, but you continued. "I was there in the dark when you spilled your first blood. I am here now, as you run from me still."

Gandalf rushed forward, hand coming out to try and rip the dark lord from your body.

Your red eyes flicked to Gandalf, "Run then, child," Gandalf ignored the threat and slammed his hand onto your head, making you start to slump over. The red in your eyes started to fade and you began to feel the pull of your by-standing soul into your once-possessed body.

"You can't hide from me forever."

TADC RANT POST !

OH MY GOD OKAY SO I NEED TO TALK ABOUT THE LAST VIDEO GLITCH POSTED.

THERE ARE SO MANY NEW CHARACTERS??

I WAS GENUINELY NOT EXPECTING THIS LIKE OH MY GOD, AND WHY IS THERE SO MANY?? I HAVE NO IDEA IF THIS IS BASED OFF THE NEWER EPISODES OR NOT BUT IF SO, IT LOOKS LIKE ONE OF THE EPISODES ARE GONNA BE CANDY THEMED?? The one with pink hair looks so pretty, I genuinely love her colour scheme, she reminds me of a cookie run kingdom character LMAO, she is so pretty.

ALSO THE CUTE LOOKING GHOST CHARACTER, IT LOOKS SO SILLY 😭 my jaw genuinely dropped throughout that whole video, and it was only three minutes..

ALSO I LOVED HOW SELF AWARE (mainly Caine) THESE GUYS WERE IN THIS THREE MINUTE VIDEO, IT WAS SO FUNNY AND UNHINGED LMAO, CAINE TURNING INTO THE BOOTLEG PLUSHIE SENT ME, THIS VIDEO WAS HONESTLY SO CHAOTIC, SO MUCH HAPPENED IN 3 MINUTES..

ALSO NEW MERCH??? I LITERALLY SCREAMED WHEN I SAW THESE THREE.

THE CAINE PLUSHIE LOOKS SO AMAZING, I LOVE HOW HE TURNED OUT AS A PLUSHIE, AND THE FIGURES??? THEY LOOK SO COOL TOO, I WILL DEFINITELY BE BUYING THESE GUYS NEXT WEEK, I HAVE TO HAVE MY HANDS ON THEM, THEY LOOK SO GOOD, MY JAW LITERALLY DROPPED SO BAD WHEN I SAW THESE, I REALLY DID NOT EXPECT TO SEE ALL THIS NEW MERCH EITHER.

AND THE CONFIRMED MONTH FOR EPISODE 2 IS MAY??? I was genuinely so scared that we wouldn’t get another episode for another year, BUT WE ARE GETTING A NEW EPISODE IN A COUPLE OF MONTHS, I’m literally going to lose my mind whilst I wait for may, I want to find out what happens next so badlyyyy

ANYWAYS, THAT’S ALL I HAVE TO SAY ON THE NEW VIDEO

[hall0wedwyrm]

finally watched The Amazing Digital Circus

its right up my alley. There's a cool and colourful place with a mystery and a dark layer underneath??? hell yeaaah. I made some notes as i watched, and im gonna just highlight some of them (most of them were me just kind of freaking out at the chaos)

Okay so first, Caine my beloved. I wrote down "do i just like unhinged chaotic characters who just say shit and it sometimes is just word vomit" and i think that sums him up

The Void - definitely like the unfinished zone of the circus, and maybe theres gonna be added areas that stretches out (because of the ending and how the Circus is literally just an island in the Void??)

Zooble <3 i love characters who are so like... done with the chaos and bs of everyone else, who are just goofy and silly and wacky

I noted down that it sounded like Caine's laugh got cut off?? idk that means anything

Caine is also very much Ringmaster. He's in charge of the Circus reality, since he also got rid of Ragatha and Pomni's glitches

also Ragatha shes so sweet she just wanted Pomni to have a nice day :(

ALSO POMNI oh my god shes absolutely going through it. I like the set up of her seeing the exit and then everyone saying "Oh Kaufmo said that haha youre silly"... have they not seen their own exits?? because she saw it out in the field and then it appeared in the circus

Jax

Kinger is totally another favourite too. I love the joke of his screams being cut off as like perfectly cut screams. Hes totally on the edge of popping but its impressive how he hasn't.

"It appears a new human has arrived!" So Caine knows shes human??? okay?????

I'm also thinking... Boneworks? Putting on the headset and going into an artificial world and then being uploaded into the world. In BWs tho the main character (Arthur was it?) does it on purpose. maybe one of them is something like that?

Caine could then be a character dragging people into the game? maybe unintentionally?

Ribbon girl oh my god i feel bad whats her name. I just feel so bad for her :( i wanna give her a hug wtf -> GANGLE <3

One of my notes just says "Stanley Parable", in reference to Pomni running through the Exit rooms. It's like someone did it on purpose so if anyone tries to leave its just going to make them go crazy faster? idk why they'd do that though if they want more people to be here

Wait hold on. Caine takes Pomni to the Void, but then later gets mad that she's there.... why did he show her????

So everyone is trapped in an early 3D show circus through a headset?? and a computer?? like souls in the show?

I sort of hope Kaufmo does come back in some way, i wanna know more about him.

I have so many more ideas about this im gonna go keep thinking about it (mainly Caine).

#the amazing digital circus #tdac #the digital circus #digital circus #i love the variations of the name going on #ill also probably watch it again too... just for good measure

[17-noodlebird]

So, remember how I said that in my Amazing Digital Road Trip AU, Pomni and Caine would definitely be drinking buddies?

Well, allow me to introduce you to...

La Pierrot is a tavern in The Amazing Digital Circus where after a particularly rough day, Caine goes out to get a drink. Eventually, Pomni finds out about this place and ever since, it's been something of a secret hangout space for both Pomni and Caine. More often than not, they'll end up buzzed at best, and outright wasted at worst, depending on how terrible the day went.

The bartender there is an NPC by the name of Joaquin, and he's supposed to be a pastiche to another digital bartender named Miguel from the game Bartender: The Right Mix, and wouldn't you believe it, Joaquin is an excellent listener, taking time to pay attention to any of his patrons’ concerns, Caine's especially. Joaquin will also put on a great show with his cocktail-making skills, and will serve a full glass of water to Pomni and Caine on the house if he thinks they had enough for the night. Truly a man of commitment, empathy, and compassion.

This video below will give you a good idea of Joaquin and his lovely liquor establishment:

Aside from Bubble (who is always informed of Caine's whereabouts ahead of time), none of the other characters are even aware that La Pierrot even exists, mainly because Pomni and Caine often came home in time before anyone got suspicious. If they ever do miss curfew for some reason — and by some reason, I mean they are too gloinked to even find their way home — Bubble will come fetch them and bring them to their respective quarters (with a complimentary glass of water, of course), where hangover hijinks will ensue the next morning.

Also, it doesn't take much for Caine to become completely out of it; a single glass of bourbon would be enough to inebriate him lickety split, with Pomni having to become his straight man for the time being. The inner machinations of these best friends are an enigma, folks.

This video below is an imaginative example of their time at the bar, but with booze:

Oh, and they'll be screaming, "JOAQUIIIIIIIIINNN!!!!" to his face.

Oh and, uh, as for Episode 2, the first location of Team Circus's fantastical road trip will remain a mystery for now, as I wanna keep you on your toes until I feel the time is right. So stay tuned!

#the amazing digital circus #tadc #tadc caine #tadc pomni #tadc au #tadc bubble #tadc road trip #the amazing digital road trip #tadrt au #platonic showtime ship #pomni and caine are best friends and that is the hill I am choosing to die on #and to those asking yes Joaquin does serve ice cream sometimes #Youtube

what i listened to in march 2024!

total: 8 albums top 3 albums: preacher's daughter (ethel cain), call me if you get lost (tyler, the creator), the michigan left (queef jerky) click read more to see full reviews ^-^

preacher's daughter - ethel cain (2022) - fav song: gibson girl - this is a very beautiful and haunting concept album. i really love the story that's explored here of a girl with religious trauma running away from her family and falling in love with a man she meets, only to be murdered and cannibalized by him. the songs shift through the same group of emotions; longing, fear, regret, hope, and pensiveness. there's some moments that really pull deep at my bones and make me cry. this is more of a country/folk album than i'm typically used to but the rock elements that are included and the grand production are familiar enough for me to enjoy stepping out of my comfort zone. i'm very excited to see the next part in the supposed trilogy of this story. - rating: 9/10

deathmetal - panchiko (2000) - fav song: cut - this is a pretty good shoegaze-y album full of a lot of typical teenage angst. it benefits from the poor mixing and diy garage sound, which makes it feel like a group of friends just got together to make music about their problems. what really elevates this album is the story behind it. this album being so underground and essentially "lost media" that was eventually found and led to the band having a huge resurgence in the past few years is so cool. the rot versions of some of the songs also add a very unique found footage-esque vibe to the whole album that almost makes it feel as if it was part of an arg. overall i think while the content of the album is alright, the fact its so widespread now is a testament to the dedication of music lovers. - rating: 7/10

laisser vivre les squelettes - daïtro (2005) - fav song: laisser vivre les squelettes - i was surprised by this being french (for some reason) but honestly i really liked the sound of it. while i don't love music where the vocals are mainly screaming, this was still pleasant to listen to for me. the music was enjoyable, especially the guitar and the drums. the only complaint i really have was the long spans of just music, which became a little grating at times. the ending of the last song was nice though i liked how it faded out. while i probably won't reach for this album again, it was still very nice to listen to more skrams music and get a feel for what it is. - rating: 5/10

isn't it wonderful - sugar cherry (2023) - fav song: october sky - this a really nice shoegaze-y indie bedroom pop album. its very short and sweet, with the album carrying a lot of feelings of nostalgia and not quite angst. its more so like yearning. as the side project of rozey (someone who hasn't release a lot of music but i like a lot) it was really nice discovering this and the album going in the more lo-fi noisy direction that rozey's been going in with his newer songs. admittedly a lot of the songs sound very similar because of the lo-fi atmosphere but there's enough distinctive elements in each song that can make them stand out after repeated listens. overall i really enjoyed this album! - rating: 7/10

call me if you get lost - tyler, the creator (2021) - fav song: lemonhead - i really like the loose concept with this album. the visuals are very strong so i wish the concept was tighter, but i get that this is tyler's "i made it" album. which i can give him a pass for bragging so much in this album. i think he deserves it. the music in this album is very similar to what's in flower boy and igor, with it very clear this is the style tyler's adapted and evolved as his own. there's much more rapping in this album than in igor, which causes this to be a nice mix of the two previous albums and even cherry bomb. overall i think this album is a very solid follow up to the massive hit that was igor and i am excited to see what tyler does next and if he tries to pivot to doing something new and different. - rating: 8/10

the michigan left - queef jerky (2023) - fav song: farward - as every queef jerky project, this is full of bangers. nick and dev have perfected making good comedy rap that has experimental elements. some of the bars included were really clever while others just made me laugh really hard. the production choices are reminiscent of jpegmafia but in a direction that makes the music have a sort of "contained chaos" atmosphere to it. and some sections really reminded me of breakcore which is a genre i've been listening to more recently. i dig it a lot and i'm soooo excited to hear what they release next. (i'm also legally obligated to disclose i fuck with this album more than any of their other stuff bc of the inclusion of riley from hivemind on every song. sorry america) - rating: 8/10

scaring the hoes - jpegmafia & danny brown (2023) - fav song: shut yo bitchass up / muddy waters - i don't know that much about rap so take what i say with a grain of salt. this album sounds very much like a throwback to older rap but updated with new styles especially that of breakcore and the general experimental hip hop peggy and danny brown are known for. i really enjoyed the production on this and honestly i think the two rappers work really well together. i was already familiar with peggy's music prior to listening to this but i haven't listened to much danny brown. this album def convinced me to go give some of his stuff a listen. the production on this album is really good and i fuck with it a ton! - rating: 8/10

once, but never again - supercollider (2023) - fav song: anyday - this album is very much inspired by shoegaze, taking elements from that and other genres like garage rock, post-hardcore, and post-grunge. its very much a diy album, with not great mixing and vocals that are very poorly recorded. all of this adds to the noisy atmosphere that gives way to the angtsy vibe of the songs. while i didn't love every song on this album, i liked the overall vibe and what they were going for. i see real potential in this band and i'm very interested in listening to their newest album. (after looking at the playlist for the album inspo, i'm not surprised at the presence of mbv, slowdive, deftones, and have a nice life) - rating: 6/10

Que Batfamily shenanigans!

Multi-chapter fanfic, with some one shots that go along with the plot thrown in.

Notes:

This is my first time writing anything with the Avengers - especially a deaf!clint - and the Batfam, so I apologize if anything is doc. Constructive criticism is appreciated!

This is mainly comic DCU with Movie Avengers (Set after the first avengers movie, plus Spiderman, cause I can ;-)

Crack! Bang! There was a flash of blindingly bright light, followed by a huge explosion.

"Wha- where are we?"

Tony Stark looked over to Peter who had been the first to speak. Crap, the kid had come here too. But wherever here was, he did not know.

Tony, Steve, Hulk, Thor, Clint, Peter, and Natasha stood in a loose clump at the center of a smoking crater. The sky was cloudy  and dark, and they appeared to be at least five miles outside of a big city, judging from the buildings in the distance. There was also a highway filled with streaming cars a couple of miles to Tony’s right.

“This isn’t right,” He muttered, opening his faceplate. Where were the sunny tropical trees that housed the compound of Anagnorisis - weird name, he knew - who was some D-list villain who thought some slightly advanced tech made them a world-conqueror. But Tony was beginning to think that those guns were a bit stranger and more advanced than he had previously believed.

“Tell me about it,” replied Steve. “Any idea where we are? Was it some sort of teleportation gun that was shot at us? This looks nothing like the Amazon.”

Before anyone could speak, Tony received a notification. Multiple incoming objects were approaching, fast . With the exception of the second fastest, they seemed to be airborne. “Multiple incomings, perhaps hostile. Most are flying. And they aren’t missiles. I think people ? But -”

“Who are you?”

Suddenly the first object arrived, and Stark was right. It was a black haired man in a blue skin tight suit with a red “S” on it and a flowing red cape. It would look ridiculous if he wasn’t glaring daggers at the group while flying .

He was joined almost immediately by another man, this time wearing an all red bodysuit with a lightning bolt on the chest and cowl. He was not flying though. He stopped in front of them swinging his arms as lightning dissipated. He had run there.

Next came a woman dressed in the colors of the american flag, with golden cuffs, tiara, and lasso by her side. She came with a man in a green, white, and black skin tight suit with some sort of symbol - perhaps a lantern? - on his chest. He also wore a green ring and black domino mask with white lenses on his face. They were both joined by another, a split second later. This was by far the strangest arrival. He was completely bald, with green skin and red eyes. He wore navy blue pants and cape, with only a red “X” over his chest. All three were floating.

“Who are you?” The blue and red man repeated.

Tony scoffed. Was this guy serious? “We’re the Avengers, obviously.”

The group shared a look. “Is that some new kind of villain group? I swear to all that is good and holy if I need to deal with another group who think they can rule the world, I. Will. Quit.” This time the man who spoke was the runner.

Steve replied, confusion clear on his face. “We’re not villains! We’re the Avengers; Earth’s mightiest heroes!”

Instead of coming to their senses, the strangely dressed newcomers laughed .

“You do realize you are speaking to members of the Justice League?” The woman spoke, her lips pursed.

“The who now?”

“Be quiet Kid, we don’t know what we’re dealing with.” Tony spoke to Peter. He was getting more worried by the second. Something was seriously wrong.

“Dealing with?” The green dressed man frowned, clearly suspicious of the Avengers. He started to fidget with his ring. “Well, since you don’t seem to know, let me enlighten you.” He gestured to each of his companions. “Superman, son of Krypton. Wonder Woman, Amazonian Princess. The Flash, fastest man alive. Martian Manhunter, well, a martian. And Me, Green Lantern. Member of the Green Lantern Core.”

Well, that explained everything. Not.

“We do not know you, strangers.” Thor spoke this time. “Perhaps you leave us be, our green friend over here gets frustrated easily.” He pointed to Hulk, who was breathing heavily.

The green man - martian, apparently - spoke for the first time. “Not until you tell us who you are and why you are in a smoking crater near His city.”

“His?” Clint clearly did not like the way the martian spoke of this character. To be honest, Stark didn’t either.

This got the most surprised reactions from the five. They looked at each other, and Tony could have sworn there was a hint of fear in their faces.

“Oh, He is so not going to like that.” Green Lantern said.

“Combined with the fact that we ditched Him.” The Flash cringed. Then looked worried again. “Yo, green grape, you okay.

The Hulk’s breathing was growing heavier, his face contorted into that of utter rage.

“Uh-oh,” Steve said.

“I . . . Not . . . GRAPE!” Hulk roared as he charged the The Flash who nimbly dodged. Superman went down to intercede, and just got punched by the Hulk. Though it did not seem to physically bother him, he was clearly angry.

Tony shut his face plate and moved forward, intending to stop the fight, but he only got attacked by the martian. Peter jumped forward to help, and soon everyone was fighting.

Thor was pitted against the Wonder Woman, and they seemed evenly matched.  Black Widow was against The flash, and despite his incredible speed she seemed to be almost winning. Both Hawkeye and Captain America were battling Green Lantern.

No one seemed to have the upper hand, which worried Tony. These people were tough. If they couldn’t beat them . . . he didn’t know what would happen.

Peter didn’t seem to share his worry though. He instead seemed to be having fun. Tony could tell the kid was smiling beneath his mask, and his body language screamed hyper and happy. He seemed to get that way whenever they fought together, and a small part of Tony was filled with a sense of parental pride.

The fight seemed endless, no one gaining traction. Until something incredible happened. Thor threw Mjolnir directly at his opponent, and instead of being knocked down like everyone else, she caught the hammer. Every Avenger - even the Hulk - immediately froze, catching the attention of the newcomers.

“This is a very well crafted weapon, though a bit clunky,” Wonder Woman said as she tossed the hammer from one hand to the other. She paused, seeing their reactions.

“You are worthy.” Thor spoke with disbelief and a tint of resignation in his voice.

“Pardon?” Superman spoke, his frown apparent.

“Only those worthy can lift Mjolnir - my hammer. She clearly can, which means that you are trustworthy.”

*****

Five minutes of somewhat confused conversation later, they had reached an uneasy truce. Neither spoke much at first, but they soon began to compare notes. Apparently They both believed themselves to be the protectors of Earth, which brought on a bout of argument before Peter stepped in.

“Woah hold on, calm down. Something is clearly up, so there’s no need to argue!”

Wonder Woman looked contemplative. “How old are you boy, you seem young.”

Peter bristled. “I’m 15, and I’ve been a superhero for a while now, so I’m not inexperienced!”

Green Lantern laughed. “That’s not what she met, kid. We aren’t going to tell you how old you need to be to fight crime. The amount of we work with, and some even younger than you . . .” He shook his head and laughed. Then he realised how he had sounded. “I mean, we don’t force them, it's up to each individual to make that choice for themselves. Well, with the mentor’s approval of course.”

Natasha furrowed her brows. “How young are some of these kids?” Tony knew she had a thing against child soldiers, so he wasn’t surprised she was disapproving.

Green Lantern looks to the Flash. “How old is Robin at this point? 9?”

Flash laughed. “Naw, that little devil is 11. He was very adamant on that fact when he threatened me with his katana.” He shook his head.

Green Lantern laughed. “Yeah, most of the others are teenagers. Robin is the youngest, and I’d say most deadly, but Red Hood . . .”

“The Dark Knight really does have a problem,” Flash said.

His last comment made Green Lantern freeze. They both looked at each other then turned to Peter.

“Kid, stay away from The Dark Knight.” Green Lantern says.

“Yeah, if He sees you, there’s no way you’ll ever leave.”

“He’s the most dangerous man on earth,” Green Lantern adds.

“Guys, stop. You’re scaring him.” Superman looks disappointedly at the two heroes who Tony pegged as the trouble makers of the group. This idea was further cemented in Tony when they started laughing. Despite this, he decided to keep Peter as far away from this supposed Dark Knight as possible.

“Speak of the devil, he’s on his way.” Superman says this with a smile, then he cringes. “And we’re going to get an earful alright. Ten minutes ahead of him is a big deal apparently.”

In a moment. Tony got an alert that something was approaching. Fast. Soon he saw a large black military type armoured car fly down the highway from the city and off the road. It zoomed toward them.

It was a sight indeed to see the menacing black car swerve and expertly stop a few yards from the group. The top opened and a dark form shot straight up before landing in a kneeling position in front of them. The figure rose, and Tony got the first good look at him. He was a tall man with a broad chest and shoulders, dresses in complete black. There was a bat-like symbol on his chest, also in black. He wore a cape that flowed around menacingly. His face was covered by a cowl with pointed ears, like that of an owl, or perhaps a bat. The only part of his costume that was not black was the dark gold utility belt at his waist. Altogether, he was utterly frightening.

Tony took a step forward, effectively blocking Peter, who scoffed.

“Batman,” Superman said, a smile on his face.

Batman fixed the most impressive and terrifying glare upon the man that Stark had ever seen. “You broke protocol by going ahead of me. You are in my territory Superman. And you know that I cannot fly or run at the speed of sound.” He fixed his glare on the rest of his group who all reacted with either flinches or sheepish shrugs.

Batman grunted before looking at the Avengers. He sized each of them up, staying longest on Stark. Tony felt as if his entire being was being stripped away under the scrutiny.

“Alternate Dimension jumpers, not by choice I’m assuming.”

He spoke so simply that it took a minute for Tony to react. Even then, the man was already on his way back to his car.

“We’re near Gotham, let’s regroup at the Cave.”

Tony didn’t know what this Cave was, but he wasn’t sure he liked it. “Are you the Dark Knight?” He asked, before he lost his nerve.

The man looked immediately at the Flash and Green Lantern, who looked both scared and amused. Their sheepish smirks and chuckles dissipated when Batman looked away and back to Tony.

“The Dark Knight, The World’s Greatest Detective, The Caped Crusader, The Batman. All are titles I have earned. See you at the cave.”

And with that he hopped in his car and sped off back toward the gloomy city beyond.

Hey, hey, hey! Last day of the @jondami-week  Thank you so much for reading and leaving kudos and comments, it makes me super happy! As I mentioned I'm planning on doing a longer (but not too long) fic about Damian and Jon so please if you like anything of these prompts tell me so I can have a clearer idea on how to write them. Thanks!

Day 7: joint family vacation | proposal | free day

You can also read it under the cut

“Stephanie, I swear to God if you play that stupid song one more time.”

“Shut up, Jason, you didn’t have a good music taste even before your first death.”

“Come on, guys, I’m sure we can find something nice for every-” Duke dodged a hamburger and decided it was better not to get in between.

“Has anyone seen my sunglasses?” asked Conner, his sunglasses obviously over his head.

“No,” answered Tim not even making an attempt at pointing his mistake.

“I’m just saying, it would totally rock if you made a ‘Is Bruce Wayne Batman?’ headline,” Cassandra nodded at Dick’s words.

“You know it would actually be really funny,” Lois smirked, her smile too similar to one of the evildoers they usually fought.

“Not it wouldn’t!” interrupted Barbara visibly angry. “Because then we, instead of him, will have to deal with it later.”

“I stopped dealing with Bruce’s shit a long time ago, you should do the same,” proclaimed Kate taking a sip of his wine.

“This is the fourth time I have to repair a train, Kent,” argued Bruce on the other side of the field. “Is it really too much to ask to show a little restrain?”

“Oh, excuse, mister billionaire, next time a train is about to run over some innocent citizens I will kindly ask the train to stop,” refuted Clark.

“The only thing I’m saying,” not too far Alfred was in the middle of another discussion with Martha and Jon Kent. “that the recipe is obviously done with raisins.”

“Raisins? Maybe in that rainy spot of yours,” Martha seemed to be terribly offended. “But not here.”

Damian sighed for the hundredth time that day watching how the whole family continued creating absolute chaos. If his calculations were right there were just a few minutes left before someone screamed “food fight”. Next to him, Jon munched on a hamburger as if the picture did not bother him at all.

“Let’s have some picnic together, you said,” said Damian. “It would be fun, you said.”

“I think is nice.”

“Your cousin tried to throw Todd over the roof just an hour ago.”

“And I think Steph is about to ask her to do it again,” laughed Jon pointing at were Jason and Steph continued to argue about the music, Duke and Cass now enjoying their exchanged while eating popcorns.

“At least Grayson has stopped with the puns,” he was starting to question why the hell he had accepted Jon’s idea, this was bound to end in disaster.

“Well, actually I think he is telling my mum that story about the Napkin man.”

Jon could not help but smile at his groan. Maybe their families were a bit… chaotic when they met, but he actually enjoyed spending time together like this. As long as he kept a safe distance between him and Jason’s guns there should not be a problem (he still remembered when the Red Hood first discovered he was dating his younger brother, that had been a fun chase). And deep down he knew Damian enjoyed them too, but his boyfriend was too stubborn to admit it.

“I just don’t understand why you insisted so much on this.”

The box in his pocket seemed to get heavier with his words. They have been dating for almost eight years, living together for six of them. While he worked as a journalist in the Daily Planet, Damian had his hands full with inheriting the Batman legacy and leading the new Gotham Justice team along with Duke, although he still made some art exhibitions from time to time. He still went out as Superboy, mostly with Damian, but the defence of Metropolis had gone mainly to Supergirl and Conner, who now called himself Supernova. Their fathers had told them they would soon pass their mantle to them and Jon had decided he wanted to ask the big question before that happened.

“D, mind walking with me for a minute?”

Damian raised an eyebrow confused as to why his boyfriend wanted to walk on the same fields that had seen him grow, but he decided it would be way better than staying there. They walked while holding hands, chatting about their little things until they reached a familiar forest.

“Does it ring a bell?” Jon smiled.

“This is where we first met,” realised Damian. “Well, when I kidnap you after discovering you were a threat to society.”

“Well, you suspicious turned out to be correct, only not to society,” he winked at him. “Only a threat to you.”

“Hmm,” Damian wrapped his hands around his neck. “Maybe I should have let you tied on the examination table of the Batcave.”

“Then, you wouldn’t have this.”

Jon then proceeded to kneel in front of him, taking the box out of his pocket. Damian didn’t say anything but his eyes widened.

“Damian Wayne,” he proclaimed. “I never thought I could hate anyone more than the first time I met you. But with time, you showed me the great person you are. Because many might think of you as brash and arrogant, but I know your actions speak more than your words. I have seen you bleed for your teammates, cry for your brothers and sister and take care of your pets as if they were the most valuable thing on this planet,” he opened the box to show a ring with a green gemstone. “You became my best friend and later the love of my life and I can’t think of a better person to share the rest of my life with so… would you do me the super honour of becoming my husband?”

“Did you have to add the super thing?” but Damian was smiling and he could swear his eyes were shinning. “Of course I do, you sap.”

Jon did not waste any time jumping to capture his lips while putting the ring on his finger. The gem was the same shade in his eyes and the moment Jon saw it he knew he wanted his boyfriend to wear it.

“I’m going to make you the happiest man on Earth,” he whispered between kisses.

“I already am.”

There were still a lot of hardship to face, millions of adventures waiting for them on the corner, but in that instant, in the same forest where they met, both could feel the strength of their bond. A union that could not be broken by time or dangers, a connection that will be with them until the time they expired their last breath. So for the moment, they enjoyed this moment and the pure bliss of knowing they would never be alone as long as the other was next to them.

MY OPINIONS ON SOME OF THE THINGS IN BIRDS OF PREY PART 2

So people, Please get over your feelings over a missing bustier outfit. It’s. Not. That. Big. Of. A. Deal. If you seriously are mad about the live-action, go back to the comics where the live-action can’t hurt you anymore.

Now onto Huntress. To be honest, every picture I've looked up is pretty much fine. For Helena Bertinelli it’s pretty much a full body suit. Now Helena, Wayne, that’s a different story.

For some reason they seem to give Helena Wayne’s outfit to Helena Bertinelli in some of the animated stuff:

But the outfit for her in the live-action film? Perfect. I liked it. It was close enough and look both bad-A and sexy.

I also liked it in Arrow and the Birds of Prey TV show (even though she’s technically Helena Kyle (Wayne) in this show).

And here’s the thing people: this movie is basically the origins for the Birds of Prey in the DCEU. So by chance that we do get another Birds of Prey film, they might change costumes. Cause as of right now, they’re just starting out as crime fighters. They’re finding their footing. Give them a break.

Now about the Joker being “crapped on”. This one caught me by surprise because a YouTuber (one whose name I will not mention; they are so annoying) made a comment about that. I’m sorry, but the Joker and Harley relationship is toxic AF. He used her to get out of Arkham, then was going to let her drown in a vat if chemicals before having a change of heart at the last second. Then he left her to drown in water and be captured by Batman. He may have seemed like he gave a crap about her in Suicide Squad, but let’s not forget how that “relationship” began. Plus I read that in the novelization of Suicide Squad. He was more abusive. So excuse me if I don’t feel bad for the Joker getting “crapped on” in this movie. (The argument for this is also because this film came out around the same time as the Oscars and the film Joker won an Oscar but people, different Joker. Way different Joker. The film people were not trying to be disrespectful or rude or hateful towards the film Joker.)

On to Cassandra Cain. Okay, this one is tricky. I get why a lot of people are upset over this characters change. From what I’ve learned Cassandra Cain was one of DC's few disabled characters. She’s not like her comic book counterpart. She's not a world class martial artist, she's talking even though she's not supposed to be, and she’s a foster kid who’s a pickpocket and not the daughter of to DC’s most deadliest assassins. But here’s the thing people they may be giving her a different origin story for the DCEU. Sure, they could have had a different character, maybe even an original character, but they have opened the door for this character in the DCEU. They could give her a different backstory while still having some ties to the original back story. For example they could do this: Cassandra Cain was raised by Lady Shiva and David Cain to be an assassin but after being forced to kill someone at age eight, she ran away (like in the comics) to Gotham and got put in the foster system and started pickpocketing. She probably doesn’t use any training to draw attention to herself since she’s already taking the risk by using her real name. They could try and find some way to establish her as mentally disabled to keep that huge part of her alive in the future films. I really don’t know much about this character since I’m pretty sure I had never heard about her before this movie specifically when they announced who all was going to be in it. And when I found out she couldn’t talk I thought that maybe it was because she was born mute or something happened to her vocal cords (like Jericho) but then it said she never learned how to talk I was like “like Dopey from Snow White? He don’t know how to talk he never tried???” but then I learned more and I get it just a little bit. Still kind of confused but I’ll do more research. But who knows, maybe they’ll add more to her if we see her in future movies. So retract the claws and let’s be patient. If you’re truly, truly mad, take a breath, and go back to the comics for awhile.

Next up, the Cananry Cry. The canary cry with without a doubt the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. It was my favorite part of the film. Now some were asking why she didn’t use it more throughout the film but here’s the thing: she inherited it from her mom (according to the movie) and her mom was a crime fighter who probably used it. Dinah didn’t want to be like a mom. That was one of the main things in the movie for her. She didn’t want to “make the same mistakes as she did.” So I think in her opinion by using that power she would become like her mom. Become a crime fighter like her and that’s what she didn’t want because of what happened to her mom. And in the comics, yes, she used the cry, but mainly she used her intense and amazing fighting moves and only used the canary cry only when she REALLY needed it. Otherwise, I’m pretty sure she would tire herself out a lot because then she’ll be using a lot of her energy up. Like how in the movie she used her cry to its full extent with a lot of force and energy that when she was done, she fainted cause she was drained (another example is in Justice League Unlimited when Black Canary screamed at Mandragora and practically almost blacked out from all the energy she used in her cry against him). And plus, it’s a lot like that movie Sky High when that girl who controlled plants kept her powers kind of hidden with only a few small showing but then near the end she showed them big-time and shocked everyone. And who knows, maybe we’ll see more it again when/if we get another Birds of Prey film or even a Black Canary solo film.

Next on the list is Renee Montoya. Like Cassandra and Harley, she wasn’t a part of the Birds of Prey. But they induced her character in this film. And as of right now, she’s a member. That might not be permanent. If we get another film, she may end up leaving the team because in the comics she did become the Question so she may leave the team and Oracle might take her place. But I loved her in this film because without Barbara, she gave Dinah and Helena a reason to fight crime. Plus I love Renee's character and was happy to see her portrayed in a live action film because so far with only gotten her in 1 TV show (Gotham) and one animated film (Batman: Bad Blood). So I’m happy for the character.

12x23: Destiel and s13 set up

So... pretty much everyone is dead or removed into a different dimension other than Sam and Dean...

I’m not going to go into the whole alternate universes discussion as so many good points have already been made. For me its just a plot point to take Lucifer and Mary away at the same time as Cas, to lead to the s13 starting point of winning Mary and Cas back and eventually having Lucifer back on the board too, when Jack has done his ‘bad things’ and has been pointed towards the ‘righteous path’ by a certain couple of someones...

To keep it brief because I’m just very late to the board and I can see there has been so much meta and speculation already, here are my thoughts:

TFW

- Cas is dead. 

Yeah, this is exactly what I expected  *happy dance*

As you will all know if you have read my ‘break up theory’ meta which is just taking standard romantic story line structure and seeing where they fit, which they PERFECTLY fit into by the way, since season 4 til now now, at this ‘break up’ point which is where for example Ursula looks like she's about to win Eric away from Ariel or the Beast has to let Belle go back to her father... it’s the last 20 minutes of the movie, basically. 

I had said that 12x19 was going to be an argument and chosen separation, which it was, 12x20-22 was going to focus on Dean’s inner self and self acceptance, which it did, and 12x23 was going to have a forced separation, which it did. What could be better than Cas’s death at this point?! Seriously? For Dean, who has JUST figured out that he doesn't want to hide behind his facade anymore, to have to now deal with losing Cas RIGHT AT THIS POINT. I nearly want to say ‘you can't write this shit!’ but...clearly you can, thank you Dabb & Season 13 writers!

I’d even speculated about the fact that Mary would also be taken away at the same time (in order to downplay the Pining!Dean of course), but I hadn't factored in that they would be taken away in separate ways, which is an interesting way to do it, but essentially still boils down to the same thing character-reaction wise.

There were only 2 things that I didn't like in the way that this was done:

1. We didn't get a hugely emotional reaction from Dean after the initial shock, but man, the initial shock stuff was GREAT (the screaming, the parallel with Sam/Jess when he's pulled away, then the parallel with Cain/Colette when he falls to his knees...) BUT now we know that they filmed what happens next already? Jensen hinted that Dean cries? Also that we will see more reaction about this death in 13x01.

2. That Cas’s death felt like it was very much geared towards being a tool for Dean’s man pain, without telling us one way or another if Cas was being manipulated by Jack, whether Cas was right or wrong in his choices. Not treating this death as something relevant to CAS but only to DEAN. That really annoyed me as a big time Cas fan (but still mainly a Dean girl). BUT again, we have been told at Jibcon that the important thing is how this death AFFECTS / TRANSFORMS Cas so this is again going to be relevant to season 13. 

So I’m totally forgiving them for not putting it in 12x23 if we are going to get it in the next episode and they told us at Jibcon so hellatus isn't so hellish :)

Basically, it’s all on track for endgame Destiel, *yay*.

- Sam & Jack. Well...

I still do believe until proven otherwise that Jack still has a CHOICE to make about which way he takes his life and what he does.

I’ve said before that this season and now I’m even more convinced that season 12 was so Dean focused (and Cas) that season 13 should be very Sam focused, which it now looks like it definitely will be. I was thinking endgame Mol!Sam anyway but to have that kind of pushed forwards in 22 was... well honestly I found it slightly jarring in it’s speed, but hey. Now with Mol!Sam on track and Jack too, with Sam being the one to find him... yeah, season 13 is going to be VERY Sam focused.

The Nephilim story is a huge part of tieing up Sam’s self-forgiveness arc that centres around being Lucifer’s vessel, the bad choices he made to start with with Ruby, the demon blood, even then in s11 going back to the cage, but also the good choices he has made… the link between him and Jack is going to be key to his endgame arc.

I fully expect and hope to see Jack make some very bad decisions to start with but be led to being good in the long run by the boys, the Righteous Man and the Boy who rejected Lucifers plan for him, and probably eventually the Fallen Angel in love with Humanity, the direct mirror to his blood father … 

For me this is where I see the story going in the long run. 

I may be wrong but honestly I don't see how it can be any other way, given the narrative over the last 12 years for the core characters: the overriding theme of free will, of choices and heart (love), of family being chosen, not just blood, all this creating who you choose to be as a person. If Jack ends up evil, fine, but it will have to be his CHOICE to be evil, and honestly, I don't see that this is where they are going with this.

Cas is also linked to Jack in whatever way it is with the yellow grace, the fact that Jack chose Cas and Cas seems to have chosen Jack, whether it be against his will or not is yet to be seen and can only be speculated about, even though I have my own mind made up about this until proven otherwise…

But ALSO their stories are so similar - literally both stuck between Heaven and Earth.

Jack will be key to both SAM and CAS’s arcs next season, which makes total sense after s12 was all about Dean and deconstructing Performing!Dean, it was absolutely beautifully done.

- Other aspects: 

Crowley is Dead, but for me he went out in a really good way and tbh I would be a bit upset at this point if they brought him back after that excellent Death.

The important thing is how this relates to Dean - who just the episode before has basically let down the walls to Performing!Dean, the ‘dark side’ that is sometimes associated with Crowley. 

Then Crowley (who represents this dark side of Dean), dies after SAYING HE IS JUST DONE WITH IT ALL and kills HIMSELF.

CROWLEY’S DEATH IS THE METAPHORICAL DEATH OF THE DARK SIDE OF DEAN WINCHESTER WHICH I WROTE ABOUT MONTHS AGO AND I AM ALIVE. 

Rowena’s death not so much but then again, she was always a villain until recently and, like Crowley, I understand that people like them both, but when you look at the awful things that they have done, to be honest, I’m not so hot on a redemption arc for them. Dying in a good way is what I would have wanted for both of them and Rowena’s death pisses me off as we were robbed of that (if she isn't going to somehow come back).

- AUs don’t excite me and IDGAF unless they give us some good plot points and character arcs that tie in. 

- Lucifer & Mary. Will be back for plot reasons, honestly, I hope they keep well out of season 13 until it is time for Jack to help out and if they are literally in 2 episodes I will be happiest but I doubt that, they will drag them and the stupid AU out for much more than its worth but eh, ok, fine. Shrugs and sticks to caring about the character driven storylines that will take place around this.

Overall, this wasn't the character - driven finale I was hoping for, there was way too much faffing around in the AU, which I really don't find interesting, way too much Lucifer BUT the themes are carrying forwards into season 13 as I had hoped they would, Cas’s death seems to be going to serve exactly the purpose for both his arc and Destiel that I would hope and this episode coupled with 22 makes me even more confident in my endgame wishlist.

Tink’s Endgame Positive Wishlist :

- Mol! Sam (and Eileen, Chuck I’m still bitter about that though, I really hoped her death would turn out to be a misdirection). Pretty much CHECK.

- Hunter / Mol collaboration with Sam and Dean as leaders. Pretty much CHECK.

- End of the brodependency, Dean acknowledging he was Sam’s parent and letting him go. CHECK.

- End of Performing!Dean. Pretty much CHECK.

- Destiel. Pretty much CHECK.

- Human!Cas and self worth and belonging for his arc. TBA probably next season, what happened this season makes no sense if not to lead to this.

The Secret of the Hope Diamond

My husband is a huge history buff and loves to watch documentaries on ANYTHING. He told me of an idea he had for a story, so here it is. It also happens to be his birthday today. 

Thanks so much to my little sis, @just-a-touch-of-sass-and-fandoms for her help with this story. 

Word Count: 3000

Warnings: some language

No Pairing

Eve begged of Lucifer to release his hold on her son, Cain. Lucifer agrees if Eve will bear him a child. She bore him a son, Raz, his name meaning ‘my secret.”

 Michael, aware of his brother’s treachery, cast the child and his soul a half a world away, sealed deep in the earth. Michael assigns two angels to watch over it, guarding it with their lives. For several millennia, the angels performed their duties diligently, until one day, humans digging in the earth, disturbed the hiding place of Raz.

 The angels continued to keep a watchful eye on the humans and when they dug up his soul from the hard ground, the angels felt the earth rumble beneath them. They reported back to Michael with these developments.

 “One of you stay with it at all times. Do not let it out of your sight.” Commanded Michael.

 For hundreds of years more, the stone bounced from owner to owner, until it’s current residence in America.

 The angels quickly discovered that a stone of this quality and monetary value made it not only of high interest in the heavens but among the wealthy on earth. Protecting it had led the angels to find unconventional means of staying close, vessel occupation being the most effective.  When the stone found its current residence at the Smithsonian Institution, the angels were delighted that it would be keep under a watchful eye in a very secure location.

 The lead curator on the exhibit had been kind enough to allow one of the angels to use her as a vessel, as did the head of security. With these two key positions being maintained by the angels, they were certain the stone was safe from anyone trying to steal it, whether it be for monetary gain or a more ominous one.

 ~*~

 “So get this.” Sam starts off breakfast with a bang. “Someone stole the Hope Diamond from the Smithsonian. How does that even happen?”

“So this is not a case? Good, cause we need a break man. I am exhausted,” Dean sat with his cup of coffee, head practically resting on the table.

 “Maybe I can help with that,” A voice chimed in, making both brothers jump from their seats, pulling their weapons.

 “Chuck!” Sam exclaimed once the adrenaline slowed a bit.

 Dean sat back down with his coffee in hand, “What are you doing here? Finally decide to show up and give a hand? Maybe reign in your wayward son?”

 Chuck helped himself to some coffee and a donut, sitting down at the table. He snapped his fingers and Dean lifted his head, feeling refreshed.

 “Thanks, Chuck. But that doesn’t answer my question. Where have you been? Your boy possessed the freaking President of the United States, got a lady pregnant who is being guarded now by a Prince of Hell!” Dean questioned the deity.

 “I can tell that you’re upset, Dean. And no answer I provide will be satisfactory,” Chuck surmised. “So why don’t I just tell you why I popped in? You already know the Hope Diamond was stolen. I need you to get it back,” he muttered shoving the remaining donut in his mouth.

 “Um, excuse me, what?” Dean stuttered.

 “I would think that would be the job of private security or maybe even the FBI. There is nothing that even remotely suggests there is a case here,” Sam pointed out.

 “Well, Heaven has done a superb job thus far in securing and guarding the stone; until yesterday.” He snapped his fingers and the table was filled with police reports, crime scene and autopsy photos.  Next to one of the guards bodies was what appeared to be an angel blade.

 “So tell us what we don’t know about the stone, Chuck,” Sam commanded.

 “Well, as you know it’s an extremely old stone and they have had trouble trying to correctly date it’s age. That’s because you humans don’t have the technology to date as far back as is necessary. That stone was created around the time Eve had another child.”

 “Eve? As in made Adam eat the off limits fruit, Eve?” Dean sat back in his chair and ran his hands over his face. “I’m so going to regret this, but please, tell us more.”

 “Well you two know better than anyone about Cain and Abel. Lucifer got ahold of Cain, and Eve, being the mother she was, would do anything for him to release her son. Lucifer made her a deal that if she bore him a child, he would release his hold on Cain, but as you know, it was already too late for him.”

 Sam held up his hand. “Wait, so you’re telling me there has been a nephilim roaming the earth already?”

 “No, thankfully, there hasn’t been. Michael had cast the child’s soul into what is now the Hope Diamond. The angels who were assigned to protect it found vessels at the institute and were guarding it when the demons found it.”

 “Why does it always have to be demons?” Dean laughed, “Can’t they just leave a stone unturned?” Both Sam and Chuck gave him blank stares. “Whatever, nevermind, continue.”

 Chuck took a sip of his coffee before continuing, “with another spawn of Lucifer on it’s way, this is bad, very bad. The power they could wield between the two of them will be overwhelmingly catastrophic. I spoke to Crowley before coming to see you. He says he is short a few demons. My best guess is that some demons want Lucifer restored to power in Hell and he gave them the story of the stone.”

 “We can be in D.C. in less than two days, but we …” Dean looked around and they were in the lot of a small motel outside D.C. standing next to the Impala, already dressed in Fed suits. “We still need more information. Like what happens if the soul is released from the stone? Does it need a vessel? How do we keep it contained?”

 “You find the stone and pray for me; I will take care of the rest.” Chuck disappeared and they were left with less than they had before they got here.

 “To the Smithsonian, I guess. God I hate museums; they’re so boring!” Dean grumbled as he got in the car. Sam, however, seemed to be loving the idea.

 Security still had the entire gem section shut down and it was easy enough to flash their badges and gain entry to the crime scene. Sam talked to a couple of the guards but none of them remember anything out of the ordinary. There was nothing useful on surveillance and the only evidence pointing at the supernatural was a single angel blade, some sulfur residue in the case where the stone was displayed, and the barely noticeable burned outline of angel wings. But then again, they had worked cases with less to go on.

 Once back in their room, Dean pulled out his phone and placed a call. Before he even hung up, Crowley was standing in front of them.

 “Hello boys.”

 “So tell us about your missing minions, Crowley. Where can we find them?” Sam ordered.

 “You do realize that as the King of Hell I have many minions. You’ve got to be more specific, Moose.”

 “The one’s that stole the stone wise ass,” Dean shook his head. “We don’t have time for your dry British humor. Where can we find them?”

 “I honestly don’t know. Lucifer is secure and I haven’t the faintest idea of what their plan is. It will take some powerful magic to release the soul trapped in the stone and the only witch powerful enough is...”

 “Rowena,” the boys groaned in unison.

 “Where is she Crowley?” Dean asked, “we need to find her before they do.”

 “She is in hiding once again. Since the fiasco with the President, I haven’t seen or heard from her. Mother knows how to cover her tracks,” Crowley admitted.

 “Rowena, it’s Sam. We need your help. Please call me back and we’ll come to you. Please, it’s important,” Sam ended the call. “Give me their names, Crowley; we’ll just have to scry for them.”

 Crowley gave up the names of the demons he knew of and Sam started the spell. Within minutes, he had the location of two of the demons, and they were together. Sam laughed at the irony.

 “What is so amusing, Moose?” Crowley asked.

 “They’re in Hell. Hell, Michigan to be exact. Not very creative, but then again, I never met a smart demon,” Sam snickered.

 “We don’t have days to burn driving all the way there. Chuck, are you there? It’s me, Dean. We need to be somewhere and well, you’re faster than driving,” Dean opened one eye and looked around for Chuck.

 “Let’s get packed up and maybe he’ll show up or answer or give a sign or some stupid shit.” Dean grumbled as he began throwing things in his duffle. By the time the boys were loaded up, Chuck finally appeared.

 “You said pray to you and you would come. Look, I know this isn’t ‘Field of Dreams’, but can you please keep your ears on Rubberduck?” Dean scolded Chuck.

 “Sorry, I was at the Sugar Shack; best donuts in the D.C, area. Want one?” He asked, holding out the box.

 As done as Dean was with this goosechase, he never could turn down food, Dean reached into the box and pulled out a glazed treasure as Chuck snapped his fingers.

 Not even one bite into his donut, they found themselves in the Impala at the city limits sign of Hell, Michigan. Sam got out his map and navigated as Dean drove, until they reached the area indicated by the scrying. “Well, it looks like we’re here; desolate and filthy as expected.”

 The boys exited the Impala, stretching their long limbs as they walked around to the trunk. Gathering the demon knife, a couple of angel blades and any other weapons they could carry, they swiftly made their way to the back entrance of the abandoned factory. Silently signaling to his brother, Dean entered the building first, sweeping his weapon left to right, Sam following suit. Satisfied the factory’s main floor was clear of any threat, Sam motioned to a set of stairs to their right and they headed up to the second floor. It seemed to consist of mainly offices and a large breakroom.

 The building was quiet, their footfalls the only sound as the Winchesters cleared the empty offices one by one. The silence was broken by a shrill scream. Dean took off running down the dusty halls toward the scream. Sam reached the room first, thanks to his long legs, and held out his hand stopping Dean from entering.

 “Sammy, we can’t wait!” Dean whispered, his expression and voice filled with urgency.

 “Dean, we need to be smart about this; we are only going to get one shot. If we screw it up, there is no going back. Just, just give me a minute, okay?” Sam urged his brother and got down on his hands and knees, pulling out his cell phone. There was a fairly large gap between the bottom of the heavy door and the floor and he was able to use the camera to see what was going on in the room.

 Although the picture was upside down, he made out three demons standing in the middle of the room. To one side, there was a table, several candles and a bowl; it looked they were going to attempt a spell of some sort, or already had. On the far side of the room, he could make out a female figure; she had a nasty gash on the side of her face and down her neck where it disappeared into a curtain of red curls: Rowena.

 Sam turned back to his brother, “They already have Rowena. She is alive, but it looks like they may have been torturing her. Three demons at two o’clock; Rowena at eight,” Sam whispered, stashing his phone back in his pocket.

 Pulling out the demon knife, Sam looked to his brother for confirmation as Dean pulled out two angel blades. Dean nodded once and kicked in the door; wood splinters went flying as they  entered the room.

 The demons had been caught off guard, but as soon as they realized it was the Winchesters that had burst into the room, their eyes flashed black, two converging on Sam as the third attempted to take on the elder brother.

 The room was filled with grunts as each party got their blows in. Dean grappled with his opponent, giving as good as he got, but winded by the time he had dug one of the angel blades deep in his gullet. Turning he saw his brother struggling to stay upright, even with the demon holding him there. “Sam!”

 The demon holding Sam smirked as the other brought up the demon knife he had relieved Sam of, “Winchester...think you’re so tough.” The smirk on his face fell as an angel blade pierced the neck of his partner, the body flashing a bright orange before falling to the dirty floor, and he momentarily lost his grip on Sam, but it was enough.

 Sam managed to break free of his captor and caught the blade his brother tossed him, pivoting on one heel and slicing the last demon’s throat, blood gurgling out over his overpriced shirt and tie. Sam quickly ran to Rowena’s side and loosened her bindings. She was covered in her own blood but would survive. They grabbed her and quickly made their way out of the building and back to the Impala, Dean silently praying to Chuck as Sam laid the witch in the backseat.

 “Fuck!” Dean swore as he threw the bloodied blades back in the trunk.

 “Dean! Let’s go!” Sam yelled to his brother.

 “The stone, Sam! Get the Wicked Witch outta here; I am going back in. I’ll have Chuck zap me back,” Dean shouted to Sam as he tossed him the keys.

 “Here. Take this; you might need it,” Sam stated as he handed Dean the demon knife. “I’ll have a cold one ready.”

 “Thanks, Sammy. I am going to need it,” Dean smiled and retreated back into the building. He retraced his steps to the room where Rowena had been held and headed for the table. Not sensing any danger, he took a moment to examine the ingredients; some of this stuff he had never heard of before and they had done enough spells in their time to know these were rare items and very dark magic. He called for Chuck as soon as he had the stone stowed in his jacket pocket.

 “Heya Dean,” Chuck piped up behind him.

 “Don’t do that!” Dean threw up his hands, exasperated at the deity once more.

 “Sorry. Get the stone?” Chuck inquired of his creation.

 “Yeah, I got it, but this stuff; I don’t even recognize most of it. It’s some pretty powerful shit,” Dean surmised, looking up at Chuck.

 “Yeah, it is. It is ancient magic, pre-biblical, Dean,” Chuck testified.

 Dean grabbed his lighter from his pocket and using some of the wooden furniture, their dusty cushions making the perfect fire starters, lit the room on fire, destroying the makings of the spell before Chuck transported them both out of the burning room and into the middle of the road.

Dean could see the Impala as it barrelled towards them, his brother behind the wheel. Sam’s face contorted as he pressed both feet to the brakes as the car came to a screeching halt just inches from his brother and God. Dean let out a breath he had been holding and collapsed on the hood of his car.

 ~*~

 Chuck healed Rowena once they had returned to the Bunker and now the four of them sat around one of the large wooden tables in the library, just staring at the stone, like they were waiting for the world to end, again.

 Sam was the first to break the silence, “Chuck, what are you going to do with it now?”

 “I have an idea. There are many artifacts hidden so deep in the earth that no one may ever find them, but I think I have one that just might work. Also, you know that the Smithsonian is offering a reward for the safe return of this monstrosity, right?” Chuck looked back and forth between the brothers.

 “Where are you going to stash it?” Sam asked quizzically.

 “Reward?” Dean chirped, a smile lit up his handsome face.

 “Don’t worry about that. I have it handled and it will never see the light of day, nor experience the touch of another human, demon or anything else, ever again,” Chuck pronounced and with a snap of his fingers, the stone glowed bluer than before and the light trailed from the stone, hovering over the table. Chuck picked up it with his forefinger and thumb, dropping into the empty bottle of scotch.

 Sam and Dean sat at the table staring at the stone for so long, they hadn’t even realized Chuck and Rowena were no longer there.

 ~*~

 It had been a long and stressful drive back to Washington, D.C. with the stone stowed safely in Baby’s backseat. Sam and Dean Winchester strode into the Smithsonian, this time as private investigators, to return to the stone to it’s rightful place. The interim curator hugged both of them before sending them on their way with free passes and a brand new briefcase loaded with hundred dollar bills.

 For the first time in their lives, they had a real vacation in a five-star hotel, with an excellent meal and fine spirits, paid for with money they had really earned without causing a bar fight. As Dean fell asleep buck naked in the most comfortable bed and softest sheets he has ever felt, he felt at peace about a case.

Our apologies for anyone who got tagged twice!

Get to know Ahsh Eff, the ambitious rapper in her own lane

Get to know Ahsh Eff, the ambitious rapper in her own lane

New York is the birthplace of hip hop. Nearly 45 years ago, the genre was concocted by DJ Kool Herc after he realized exactly how much crowds enjoyed getting down to drum breaks. A few years later, the sound grew into a nonviolent way to have fun and celebrate. But from a more political standpoint, hip hop was also a means for honest communication for people of color - especially young Black people. It has waxed and waned since then, adding and subtracting figures, phrases, subject matters, vocal styles, and production methods.

One contemporary New York based-artist who is determined to carry the culture forward (in her own way, of course) is Ahsh Eff.

Ahsh (pronounced “Ah-sh”, not “Ash”) is a Brooklynite in her early 20s. She sports a head full of long forest green hair, with snatched brows that you may catch furrowed. Eff, which is short for “effect”, formally introduced herself to the music two and a half years ago, via a FADER premiere for her song “Storefront”. Since then, she has collaborated with rapper Ms. Boogie, and been featured in Out Magazine and her music video for her new single, “Tongue Ring” was recently featured on Paper.com. As her level of determination seeps through the internet, you can't help but respect her hustle. In short, Ahsh is rising.

I spoke with Ahsh about her next big move in music, the nitty gritty of city life, and her thoughts on being called a “female rapper.” Check out our chat below.

HelloGiggles (HG): Some people think that musicians live carefree lives. I know that's not true because it's still a job at the end of the day. Can you tell us some of the not-so-glamorous aspects of the music industry so that people have a true idea of a rapper's life?

Ahsh Eff (AE): Well first off, NOTHING IS REALLY FREE! But mainly, the behind-the-scenes work required to break through is 50% of making it honestly. Without a team, it falls on the artist. So yes, being a rapper means I have to sit in front of a computer for hours writing to people who have no clue who I am to explain why my music is the shit and why you should take notice as soon as possible. I'm like a walking commercial, and you can't shoot a commercial without a camera, lights, [and a] script.

HG: Do you rap full time or do you have a day job?

AE: I'm full-time. My mom always told me if you have a plan B, plan A will never be able to work. Shout out to her.

HG: You've worked with huge, New York-based producers, like Stelios Phili and Crystal Caines. How do you come in contact with producers? What sounds attract you?

AE: I met Stelios randomly through a friend-mentor Ross and I literally met Crystal on Facebook. We clicked and [have] been close ever since. [As for sounds,] I love dark shit. It's like I can't escape it. I love screaming, yelling, making weird noises and shit; so pretty much whatever goes with that.

Shout out @revolttv for including 'Big Gucci' in their weekly round up this morning

I'm like a walking commercial, and you can't shoot a commercial without a camera, lights, [and a] script.

HG: Do you rap full time or do you have a day job?

AE: I'm full-time. My mom always told me if you have a plan B, plan A will never be able to work. Shout out to her.

HG: You've worked with huge, New York-based producers, like Stelios Phili and Crystal Caines. How do you come in contact with producers? What sounds attract you?

AE: I met Stelios randomly through a friend-mentor Ross and I literally met Crystal on Facebook. We clicked and [have] been close ever since. [As for sounds,] I love dark shit. It's like I can't escape it. I love screaming, yelling, making weird noises and shit; so pretty much whatever goes with that.

Shout out @revolttv for including 'Big Gucci' in their weekly round up this morning
