Alright, random idea about the Twin AU, or any AU where Danny is an Al Ghul. Everyone knows that Ra's has an entire army of assassins, but what about the dead assassins? I doubt Ra's is dipping everybody in the Lazarus pit.
So, what if they went to the ghost zone?
And then when Danny dies, these assassins, who are extremely loyal to the Al Ghul family, immediately start following him.
The main assassin in charge, I'm gonna call him Carl, whose been around since the very beginning of the league, who was Ra's right hand man, starts acting as Danny's second in command basically becoming his Alfred.
Carl orders some of the assassins to help Danny out with some small stuff, like distracting some of the rouges so he gets to school on time, killing the hotdogs in the fridge so the little prince doesn't die of poisoning, setting off a Fenton invention so Danny get make a getaway. He definitely orders them to not interfere in big fights, unless Danny really needs the help, as a way for Danny to learn how to fight.
Carl has no idea who the GIW is, but he's gonna find out and then he's gonna blackmail/threaten/unalive some people.
Danny doesn't even know that he's suddenly gained a ghost army, all he knows is that there's a few helpful ghosts hanging around that really hate hotdogs. And then when Danny becomes the ghost king, hoo boy. The assassins replace the old ghost kings army, set up their own system and chains of command just completely change everything. Carl takes FrightKnights place as the king's right hand man/ bodyguard, makes sure all the members of the royal family are safe and is ready to fist fight the time ghost if he makes one more attempt to get his job.
Danny: I wanna be an astronaut. Carl who has no idea what that is: Sure, just let me do some info gathering and blackmail some people. Danny: What? And imagine the batfams reaction.

i was watching a youtube video today about how orpheus as portrayed by reeve carney is neurodivergent (which like, yeah, he definitely is and it's glorious) but at one point the captions in the video said "go quirked up white boy go <3" and i would just like to say i haven't laughed that hard in a while and that phrase is now entering my daily vocabulary

Been talking with some friends and i have another dp au(void help me)
Danny Phantom Phasmophobia au
Sam and Tucker decide they want to go to this creepy house in this small town outside Amity Park, Danny hesitantly tags along
When he enters the house, He feels this oppressive aura, and his core is screaming at him to leave(He does not, But hes really wary and on edge)
Eventually someone in their trio has to go in alone, Danny reluctantly goes in(He doesn't want Sam or Tucker to get hurt)
The aura from before is more intense now
Eventually the ghost would appear(I imagine they're pissed that humans are disturbing their haunt), and they cant tell Danny's a ghost at first until they get close
When they do, Danny cant move or speak, the feeling from before is overwhelming and hes fucking terrified
His core is telling him to look away, not to appear as a threat, so he does
The ghost realizes that Danny's a young ghost, and a halfa at that, so they take pity and calm Danny down, and explain to them a few things(that i'll explain in a second), and let him go with a light warning not to disturb another's Haunt
On the other side of this, Sam and Tucker are terrified for Danny when the ghsot started hunting, and then after when Danny's Radio suddenly stops working, They try to break into the house but cant manage to get in
They're so relieved when Danny walked through the door, visably shaken up but other then that, completely fine
They decide to leave after that, and Later Danny fills them in on what happened afterwards(They apologize to him for pushing him into that situation in the first place)
NOW FOR SOME HC AND LORE STUFF OF THIS WORLD
Theres a difference between Haunts in the Ghost Zone(Lairs), and in the human world
Amity park is an exception and i'll explain that in a bit
All Haunts should be treated with respect, Ghosts dont enter a haunt uninvited, attack someone in their own haunt, etc. Thats the extent of it for Lairs, Since ghosts are really the only beings in the infinite realms, theres no need for any protection
In the human world however, Humans and other creatures disturb haunts quite frequently, to counter act this, Ghosts who reside in the human realm have a oppressive/protective aura to chase away anyone unwanted, and by extention, any curious ghosts looking to claim the haunt as their own. Sometimes, Ghosts will fight eachother for a haunt in the human world, hence why the aura affects them aswell
Amity Park is an odd case. The entire city is considered Phantom's haunt, which is pretty big for a haunt. Whats stranger is that Phantom is much more welcoming then other ghosts, allowing other ghosts to reside in Amity as long as they dont cause any trouble
His aura is still protective, and intimidating to new ghosts entering, but it isn't as intense or intimidating as other ghosts.
Another thing is that a ghost's aura depends on age of the ghost, along with how long they've had/how close they are to their haunt.
Halfa's are also a fun topic, They get the same instincts ghosts do, but they dont get any information when it comes to ghost taboo, rules, traditions, etc. Danny in this didn't know the rules about human haunts, but his instincts acted up anyways, which is why he was on edge and reacted to the aura
Alot of Phasmophobia/Danny Phantom idea's ive seen where danny wasn't completely dead seemed to have Danny as confident and unphased by other ghosts, so I thought this would be a nice different take on the idea ~ Ender/Whisper

Being a fan of something fictional is so weird like the author created the story of the characters but we as fans feel like we know them.
We can hear a song and be like this, is that character, the author may have made the character but we make it our own, seeing them a different way, understanding them, relating to them. But sometimes there are things a fandom can all agree on without even being stated.
The way a character takes their coffee, their favourite season, their favourite movie, and the types of books they read. Even if it isn't stated in the book. movie, tv show, we feel like we know that character, maybe even more than some of our closest friends.

Nonhuman Alter Flag!
Tumblr media
the symbol is a simplified version of the nonhuman alter symbol on pluralpedia that we made, the dark blue represents the unity between all types of nonhumans, the purple represents the supernatural and a separation from humanity, the yellow represents those who find joy in both human and nonhuman experiences, the light green represents those who enjoy all of the human experience, and the dark green represents our place here on earth together, no matter where we are from there are some variations under the cut!
Tumblr media
Alien alter! based on the alien-gender flag submitted here
Tumblr media
Monster alter! based on the gendermonster system by @kiruliom
while this isnt a gender flag, I as a nonhuman often connect with nonhuman related genders, so i figured i would make some avaliable along with the base flag
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
here are some transparents for anyone who wants to make a variation of this! please tag me if you make one I would love to see what others can make of this!
(in order, headmate stripe nonhuman symbol combo, headmate stripe, nonhuman symbol)
I also made some attraction flags! this is mostly for me, but yall are free to use these as well!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(in order, top to bottom)
Human4Monster | Monster4human
Human4Alien | Alien4Human
Human4Nonhuman | Nonhuman4Human
definitions are similar for all of these, they are for when you are a human that is attracted to monsters/aliens/nonhumans in some way, or for when you are a monster/alien/nonhuman attracted to humans in some way.
DNI: Anti-Endo, Anti-mogai, MAPS/PEDOS, TERFS/SWERFS, Exclusionists. Please dont "reclaim" these terms to make a statement, anyone can use them as long as it not in a hurtful manner
Credit is much appreciated but not necessary, just have fun with them!

Detailed explanations and headcanons for both drawings. ↓
[First Image Explanation]
Octavio, before he transitioned, worked in the entertainment district as a side job. Other than privately entertaining people (WITHOUT providing any sexual services), he'd reenact Oiran performances to honor his ancestors and to (basically) keep the tradition alive. It's a public event and it's crucial for him to play the role of the Oiran anyways due to being in the royal family. It wasn't a choice for him to decide whether or not he wants to perform either. It's a requirement.
Despite the history and original purpose of the Oiran (prostitution), he found some joy in performing it these reenactments... Not only because it's a tradition, but also because it's a work of art. It was kind of a workout session for him because the whole outfit weighed atleast 30kg. Of course, it was a pain in the ass to put on AND take off... He does admit that he looked hella good in it despite that. He still reminisces about it in the Splatoon 3 timeline because he's old as shit. And unfortunately for him, the crown he used to wear all the time on his head would cause him to develop a bald spot later in life.
But ermmmmm... after his first encounter with Craig, he'd make up excuses on why he isn't able to perform. Whether it'd be him feeling extremely ill or having to study, he'd come up with horrible excuses to sneak out of the castle and hang out with Craig (he barely left the castle unless he has have to perform). Not too long after, he'd resign from performing in Oiran reenactment festivals or festivals in general due to exhaustion. Having to wear and walk around in 30kg of clothing once a week can OBVIOUSLY wear you and your body out. Blah nlah blah more stuff because I'm writinf this from the top of my head and I can't think of anytjing else to add blah blagh....
[Second Image Explanation]
An alternate timeline where Craig resigns from the military after 7 years. Craig was in and out of training for about 5½ years, but with an upcoming war, he couldn't get in contact with Octavio, let alone anyone outside of the Inkadia military anymore. The soldiers of the military was infact not informed that a war was about to break out. Octavio was already at his lowest; having to deal with being a heir to the throne, having too many responsibilities as a member of the royal family, and of course being neglected by those close to him, which fucked up his ego fueled his depression even more. With Craig (being the only person who truly cared about his feelings) gone, his mental health declined a great amount.
After 1½ years of no contact, Craig resigns just a week before soldiers were scheduled to show up on the battlefield. Craig forgot to inform Octavio beforehand that he had already left, so he shows up at Arowana Castle unannounced, which causes Octavio to latch onto Craig and burst out in tears of happiness. ^_^

a couple literary lols & why they don't work
I enjoy watching book reviewers talk about books, especially when they cite passages that just don't work. I've collected a couple screenshots cuz they're hilarious and/or confusing, and thought it would be fun to post about them.
These are just my suggestions, opinions, and thoughts. I don't claim to be a literary authority. Behind the cut for length!
From Cari Can Read's video, "i read the 2000s fallen angel series hush hush so you don't have to." I'll be honest, I'm not sure which book in the series this screenshot is from.
Tumblr media
This is hilarious. It's supposed to be serious. The narrator is reminded of her dead father, but the vehicle for that memory is a cheeseburger. The train of thought is cheeseburger -> dead meat -> dead cows -> dead father. It's a leap to go from dead cow to dead father, in my opinion. As is, it reads like satire. This is because cheeseburgers and dead fathers don't have the same emotional weight (for most people. I'm guessing. Like I'm really really sure this is the case). The "memory object," the cheeseburger, has no gravitas. It has no emotional connection to death. The train of thought leading us from the object to the dead father essentially equates the father to dead meat. There's no reason for the reader to feel any kind of empathy or connection to this statement.
Without the context of the rest of the story - which is what we have here with only this screenshot - it's ridiculous. With the context of the story, it's still ridiculous. That's why Cari highlighted it in her video.
There is something to be said for the phenomenon wherein a person is reminded of a lost one by mundane objects. But it just doesn't work here.
How it could've worked if the author was dead set on using 'cheeseburger': if the father worked with cows, or cows meant something special to the narrator or her father. If they worked together at a fast food place. If there was some kind of symbolism or emotional connection. Even if the cheeseburger thing was supported by previous cheeseburgery memories between the daughter and father, I'd still suggest the verbiage be changed.
What I would actually advise: using a "memory object." I'm sure there's an actual term for this. I just made that up now. What I mean is: an object that has an emotionally charged memory connected to it. Common items you'll see in media are teddy bears, jewelry, books, diaries. Tools. Objects that the character and their dearly departed used to use together while working on things, or accomplishing goals. Objects that mean something to both the character and the reader. I would advise this author to pick an object that meant something to the character and her father, and have her ruminate on that, instead.
2) From Reads with Rachel's video "The Lightlark sequel is nonsense NIGHTBANE REVIEW." This is an excerpt from Lightlark:
Tumblr media
The main issue reviewers cite with this passage is "She ran like she was running from something." I hope I don't need to explain why that's poor writing. You have a simile that isn't comparing two different things. It's literally the same thing. She is doing something like she's doing something. I honestly hope the "something" in that sentence was a placeholder and the author forgot to go back and add in a monster or in-universe villain or literally anything.
The whole excerpt is a mess, though.
"Isla moved through the castle like a storm." Not bad, but one could improve this with a stronger verb or with some more description. If there is a certain kind of in-universe storm that's exceptionally dangerous, I would mention it here. "Like the winter monsoons," etc.
"If she'd had power, it would be everywhere." Uh, okay. But what if you connected her power to its ability to be everywhere, rather than just saying it was? Since we have mentioned a castle and a storm in the previous sentence, one could do, "If she'd had power, it would flood the basements and roar up the spiral staircases. It would scrape the tapestries and armor from the walls and drag them over the battlements, raining shrapnel onto the men below." That's not perfect, but you definitely get a feeling for how widespread and destructive her power is*. It's much more impactful than just saying "everywhere."
*or would be, if she had it.
"She ran like she was running from something," sigh. Well, we went over this one already. I would definitely give Isla something to be running from. Definitely an in-universe being or concept that dredges up an almighty fear.
"wielded her dagger like she might throw it;" The word "might" here really weakens the sentence. Instead of saying she might throw it, I'd put in a detail here about it being ready to use, by way of being physically connected to her body. "She held her dagger in her teeth, tongue against the blade." "She gripped her dagger. The jewels in its handle bit into her palm." I have no idea what her dagger looks like, but you could give the reader some details using a sentence like this. Bonus: you aren't just describing the dagger in an info dump. You're telling the reader what it looks like during an action scene!
ETA:
"her feet chattered like the marble beneath her feet was ice." This is just disorienting. It takes a second or two for the simile to sink in, and anytime you have to think about what you're reading because you don't understand it, you're taken out of the story. For me personally, this doesn't work because I associate "chatter" with teeth, and the teeth and feet are physically on opposite sides of the body. I've never seen "chatter" used with feet before. It's so weird. Not to mention the word "feet" is used twice in the same sentence. The first "feet" is equated to teeth chattering, as if the second "feet" were running on ice. I just. This is, in my opinion, bad. If I were editing this, I would not try to preserve the simile. I think "chattering" "marble" and "ice" are supposed to impart a harsh, rapid sound as she runs across a hard surface. I would instead concentrate on that: a clear description of her running across marble. I would ditch the simile altogether, as we've just had several in the past few sentences. Which aspect of running across marble do we want to focus on? Is the sound of the feet hitting the floor more important (maybe an enemy will hear her approaching), or the impact of the floor on her feet (maybe her feet are injured), or are we trying to continue the threat of the might-be-thrown-dagger (focus on her run being a further expression of her strength/athletic abilities/power)? The original text is so complicated, we have quite a few ways to interpret it. Whichever way one goes, I would advocate for clarity. You can't show off how badass your character is if you hide her behind a confused jumble of words.
Hey what if something was confusing enough that you fucked up and wrote a huge long paragraph about how wrong it was, but in reality, you got it wrong, and you'll die mad about it, but you won't erase the part you got wrong because you have integrity and own your mistakes, or something.
"her teeth chattered like the marble beneath her feet was ice." Okay that's why the 'teeth -> feet' distance thing was so weird in my brain. I wrote the above and looked at the original a couple times but it didn't connect. I think this is actually worse than the thing I fucked up seeing. What exactly is being said here? I'm having such a hard time understanding what... what... is she barefoot? Her feet are assumedly bare. She's on ... marble... I'm not sure why her teeth are chattering. Usually it's from cold or fear, but the previous sentences make it sound like she's ready for a fight. The inclusion of ice here makes you think "cold," but then... her feet... ice... marble... It's like I'm just barely able to understand what's being said here, but it's so ephemeral, I can't-
I think the character is afraid, and her teeth are chattering, but why say it like this? What IS this? Her feet are hitting the ground quickly, as teeth chatter (hit together quickly)...
KNOW WHAT, fuck it. If the editor of the book didn't care, neither do I xD
/end ETA
Alright! That was fun :D I hope you enjoyed that. As a side note, I've heard quite a few critical things about Lightlark. I'll keep them to myself for now, but seeing books like this get published really makes me feel like I can do better. It's also a great exercise in thinking through 1) what's not working in the prose, and 2) how can it be fixed? Bonus if you can fix it and insert some seamless world building.

Undead Unluck Characters and Their Puns
This is gonna be a very long post so please bear with me, guys. I love languages and this is my domain so.
I will only add the appropriate information for the puns depending on how simple or complex it is.
List will be based on their negation ability reveals (or introductions, I'm inconsistent) up until the latest chapter so anime-onlys be warned!
Fūko Izumo (出雲風子, Izu-mo Fuu-ko)
Unluck (不運, fu-un)
Her pun is rather simple. The kanji 雲, meaning cloud, can be read as "un", while 風, meaning wind, is straightforward in the fact that it sounds similar to "fu" as in 不.
Simply put, her name can be read as "Fu-Un" just like her ability!
There's also the bonus cloud + wind combo.
Andy (アンディ, Andi)
Undead (アンデッド, andeddo)
This one is already explained by Fūko lol.
Void Volks (ボイド・ボルクス, Boido Borukusu)
Unavoidable
Avoid.
Gina Chamber (ジーナ • チェンバー, Jiina Chenbaa)
Unchange (アンチェンジ, anchenji)
Hers is actually a really fun one. It got my head scratching until I read the manga in Japanese lol.
Simply reverse it into "Chamber Gina" then cut out the first syllable of each name. "Chen" and "Ji", which becomes "Chenji" as in "Change"!
Rip Tristan (リップ • トリスタン, Rippu Torisutan)
Unrepair
Rip as in the "rip-air" in "repair".
Top Bull Sparx (トップ • ブル • スパークス, Toppu Buru Supaakusu)
Unstoppable
Stop.
Tatiana (タチアナ, Tachiana)
Untouchable (アンタッチャブル, antacchaburu)
"Tachi" in "Tachiana" is a pun for "Tacchi" as in "Touch"!
Chikara Shigeno (重野力, Shige-no Chikara)
Unmove (不動, fudou )
His is also very fun, I only noticed it during the undercover high school arc where his name was written in Ryo's notebook and Nico held it up.
The kanji for move is 動 which consists of the kanji 重 from his surname and 力 from his first name.
This one is really smart, actually.
Akira Kuno (久能 明, ku-nou akira) / Un Anno (安野雲, an-no un)
Unknown (不明, fumei )
His first name of "Akira"'s kanji (明) can be read as "mei" as in "fumei".
Un Anno has already been explained within the story, it just sounds like "unknown".
Sean Datz (ション • ダッツ, shon dattsu)
Unseen
Sean looks like "seen", that's the whole pun. But the "depre-sean" and "damna-sean" jokes really get me lol.
Lucy (ルーシー, ruushii)
Unhealthy (アンヘルシー, anherushii)
Still debatable if it was a joke or she's an actual negator. But considering how she can astral project and see other's astral projection, and Nico (when his ability hasn't manifested) couldn't, it's more likely she is one.
"Ruushii" from "anherushii".
Nico Vorgeil (ニコ • フォーゲイル, niko fougeiru)
Unforgettable
Vorgeil sounds like Forget.
I honestly thought he was named Nico as in "Nicotine" because he smoked a lot. Turns out he was named after Nikola Tesla. Oops.
Ichico Nemuri (イチコ • ネムリ)
Unsleep
I love hers so much. Her name is written entirely in katakana instead of kanji, which means it can be read in multiple ways.
The "Ichi" in "Ichico" can be read as "one" as a counterpart to the "Ni" in "Nico" which can mean "two". Add them together, and you can get "three", which can be "Mi-tsu" and the "Mi" as in "Mico"!
Nemuri on its own can be read as "眠り", which means "to sleep" but it can also be read as a combination of "nemu" (sleeping) and "muri" (impossible/unreasonable) which means "unable to sleep".
Backs/Bunny (バックス, bakkusu)
Unback
We don't really have much info but it's obvious the "backs" is from "back".
Phil Hawkins (フィル • ホーキンス, firu houkinsu)
Unfeel (アンフィール, anfiiru )
Phil. Feel. Mind blown.
Tella (テラー, teraa )
Untell
Tella.
Characters I haven't figured out the pun yet or unsure about:
• Shen Xiang (シェン • シアン, shen shian) - Untruth
I'd say it's because it sounds similar but not really to "shin" as in 真 meaning truth?
• Mui (ムイ) - Untruth
It could be "mu" as in "none"? Because she's not a negator or... Something else.
• Juiz d'Arc (ジュイズ • ダルク, juizu daruku) - Unjustice (アンジャスティス, anjasutizu)
I guess it's because of anjasutizu?? Not sure.
• Creed Deckard (クリード • デッカード, kuriido dekkaado) - Undecrease (デクリーズ, dekuriizu)
My best bet is "de" from his surname and "kurii" from his first name, but then that makes it "dekurii" instead. So idk.
• Sadako Kurusu (来栖 貞子, Kuru-su Sada-ko) / Kururu (クルル) - Unchaste
I really don't know. Except maybe the "kuru" in her name means "arrive" as in her targets rushing onto her?
• Yusai (友才) - Undraw
Exposing myself as a fake fan because I have no idea.
• Isshin (一心) / Haruka Yamaoka (山岡 春歌, yama-oka haru-ka)
I might be stupid.
• Billy Alfred (ビリー • アルフレッド, birii arufureddo) - Unfair/Unbelievable
The only possibility I could think of is because readers were told that his ability was "unbelievable". I can't really find a connection between his name and "unfair". Unless it's the fact that his name doesn't have a pun, hence breaking the status quo of having name puns, that makes it unfair. But maybe I'm just reaching.
• Feng Kowloon (ファン • クローン, fan kuroon) - Unfade
I keep on accidentally reading his name as "fan clone" and I can't figure out a pun (if that was even one) other than that...
• Latla Mirah (ラトラ • ミラー, ratora miraa) - Untrust (アントラスト, antorasuto)
It could be the "tora" in "ratora" as in "torasuto". But I'm not really sure.
• Enjin (円陣, en-jin) Unburn
Enjin sounds like "engine", yeah, but I can't really see the pun.
• Victor (ヴィクター, vikutaa) - Undead
I'm not even sure if there is a pun here other than "victor" as in "victory" as in "winner".
Bonus:
The logo for "Under" is literally just the 不 kanji flipped upside down.
Idc about Ruin.

If any of y'all know any new info, feel free to add on in the tags!
