#they both adopted each other

[ani-and-the-corries-au]

There are some things that all troopers know Nat born's will never understand.

All the troopers grew up in a world where perfection was the standard and anything less resulted in death. Where individuality was a crime and being anything more than just another number was a danger, Where saying the wrong thing in front of the wrong person could get you killed.

All troopers know this, but post Kamino the Guards have had it drilled into them all over again. If they want to survive In the Senate they have to fall back on the lessons they learned on Kamino.

The Corries know that there are some things that nat born's will never understand. Things that Nat born's shouldn't understand.

So no one in the guard quite knows how to feel about the strange fallout of the Shiney squad's Jetti Cadets apparent discovery of the Guards position on Courcant.

It starts small, the guard notices that the boy stops being weird about the fact that most of the Corries don't use their names, when asked, the boys. "It's because I know that you have them now." raises more questions than answers, because apparently the boy just figured out that they used their designation numbers around the Senate because their names were a secret on his own. He also seemed to get an unreasonable amount of joy from the fact that all the clones chose their own names.

If it has stopped there then it probably wouldn't be so weird, but it didn't. From sneaking in extra medical supplies and food, (actual food, not just ration bars) when he discovered that 'depur' was cutting their budget for stuff that they needed to function, to the way he seemed to intrinsically understand their need for secrecy, and their reasoning for it. "secrets keep us safe." Without anyone seemingly telling him.

They all agreed that they weren't gonna ask about how the boy had managed to rangle several senators around to the truth of the situation and his point of view with only a few words to one of them. A point of view that not only had them working on trooper sentient rights bills, but also had them aiding in his more under the table helping.

At first it was weird and confusing, both because this kid was a nat born, and because how did a Jetti Cadet develop this kind of understanding, he was a child. It took them a while to connect the dots, Even as the boy started unconsciously dropping hints.

At first it was that weird little nickname he had for the Senate and Senators, in a language that even the most nerdy of Corries didn't seem to understand. They weren't sure what a Depur was, but apparently it applied to the Senate and was probably not a good thing.

The next clue was the stories, because as Anakin spent more time with the guard, becoming more of a Vod'ika than a Jetti Commander and subsequently beginning to learn more and more about the secrets that they kept from the rest of the Senate.

As the boy learnt about the lighter side of the inner workings of the guard, and how to speak the clones particular brand of Mando'a, the guards began to learn stories about Ekkreth, Leia and Ar Amu, stories about secret plots and tricking the The infamous Depur in ways that resulted in the freedom of those he enslaved.

About secret Languages, Tzai, Jappor snippets and secret rituals. About the ways one could steal back some control from the Masters in ways that they would never even notice. About things that the boy claimed that all Slaves should know, lessons that would help keep them safe from their Masters. A term that by now the guards suspended was not referring to the kind the Jedi had.

By the time the boy causally mentioned that he and his mother had been enslaved prior to him being taken to the temple, the Guards already had a pretty decent picture of the situation.

The fact that the boy had been adopting them into his own culture right under their noses had been vastly more surprising. He'd been a little awkward when he'd admitted it. Saying that he knew that they were sort of Mando'ade, but they could be Amavikka too if they wanted.

And sure, maybe it was a little dark that part of the reason the boy spent so much time in the barracks was because it felt familiar, but also this kid cared about every single one of them, to the point where he apparently sees them as family.

Well it really was no wonder that it was agreed that the entire guard would do just about anything for their Ad'ika. Including possibly stopping said Ad'ika from doing the same for them. (Bloody Skywalkers)

don't mind me, I made a thing for a thing that I'm not too sure when I'll be done with 'cause it requires coding knowledge-

Idk It always bothered me that they both had only one sprite, so I wanted to fix that

Summer Camp

Fighting ghosts had caused his grades to drop, to the point where some were barely passing. That's why Mr. Lancer recommended him to get a tutor or attend a remedial course, something Danny considered quite absurd, how was he going to be able to get away from Amity without it getting destroyed?

Jazz didn't seem to find it absurd at all, and despite his complaints, the halfa ended up at "summer camp" to boost his knowledge or something (Sam and Tucker seemed pretty sure they could handle the ghosts on their own while he was gone), at least, they had an activity about stargazing, for which Danny was grateful.

In the camp he found someone just as bitter as he was, but strangely excited. "Jason Todd" was grumpy about attending and having to be away from his family, but he was excited to learn new things. Danny found it endearing.

They both ended up becoming friends, and reminding each other of the things they were missing. At the end of the camp, it seemed that life had returned to the eyes of the tired halfa. It was during his last night at the camp, when Danny was showing the boy the stars, that Jason kissed him.

Unfortunately they didn't have much time left so they decided to keep in touch and send each other letters. Each headed to their respective city with a smile on their faces. The happiness Danny had earned was gone as soon as Jason's letters stopped coming.

He checked the Gotham newspapers with curiosity and was furious as soon as he saw the news of Jason (sweet, nerdy, and rude Jason) being killed in a fucking explosion. He flew at full speed until he found his grave, and helplessly began to cry. Whether he was angry or sad, he didn't know.

Ectoplasmic tears fell on the grave and unknown to the halfa, they were absorbed by the body. When Danny noticed that the tomb was beginning to glow the same toxic green he knew he couldn't help but feel hopeful. But it wasn't enough.

He didn't know if it would work, but on instinct he drew ectoplasm directly from his core and propelled it into Jason's tomb, hoping it would help. Danny wondered if he was breaking a rule in the Realms but he didn't care.

When he heard his friend's weak heartbeat (Boyfriend? Lover? He doesn't know, they never put a label on each other) he began to dig up the dirt around the grave, but before he could finish, time stopped and Clockwork looked at him with a frown. His mentor looked annoyed, but strangely comprehensive as he directed him to the Clock Tower.

#dpxdc #dead on main #Jason and Danny attended to the same summer camp #Jason because he wanted to learn the things he couldn't before being adopted #and Danny because he needed to improve his grades #Jason loved being Robin but loved more learning new things #he was grumpy because Bruce told him to stop being Robin for a while to attend the summer camp #They fall in love with each other #dp x dc #dc x dp #deadonmain #They kept sending letters to each other until Jason died #Danny's tears and ecto in general revived Jason #But that broke a rule in the realms #that's the reason Clockwork was disappointed #because Danny broke the equilibrium but they couldn't do anything and it was already done #Jason revival happened as normal #the difference was that in the future Batman cornered Red Hood and was about to send him to Arkham #at that moment Danny appeared and froze all the ground between them before taking Jason's hand and pulling him out of there #and they both reconnected #The Ancients forbade Danny from seeing Jason for a period of time while they searched a way to mend the broken balance #Danny can be ghost king here or not you chose

Dc x Dp Prompt #5

Demon Twin AU except Damian never had a blood son phase:

Damian would like to start saying he is not at fault for this….miscommunication. Truly, how was he to know sharing the same blood as Jasmine and Danyal would make them “siblings”? Not once has anyone mentioned such absurd claims. He has never and will never treat either of the two the way he would Richard or any of his other siblings, but apparently sharing the same donors when being created automatically makes people siblings.

Worse, father is upset at him and mother for “hiding away” two of his “children” from him. Richard and Thomas will not stop staring at him. Todd, Brown, and Drake will not stop laughing. Cassandra has not stopped looking at his body language since this whole encounter started. Alfred is giving him his patented disappointed face he oh so hates but what is he to do?

Damian was not hiding anything or anyone. Jasmine and Danyal have not nor will they ever be his siblings. They are the children of Jack and Maddie Fenton just as Richard and the rest of them are Bruce’s children. Blood has nothing to do with family. They are at best “god-siblings” or “cousins” if father refuses to believe they are simply childhood companions.

There is barely a hint of emotion as father purses his lips while his siblings continue looking on at him in disbelief. Damian is not understanding why they are having trouble comprehending such simple logic. It is common sense to know that siblings are the children at least one of your parents have raised other than yourself. Parents are the people who raise you. Talia raised him therefore she is his mother. He lives with Bruce who is now raising him and therefore he is his father.

Neither Talia nor Bruce raised Jasmine or Danyal, therefore they are not siblings. It is merely coincidence that he shared blood with both Bruce and Talia. After all, every time he’s visited Amity Park, most children look nothing like their parents. How can it not be coincidence when it is clearly far more normal to raise children who don’t share an ounce of blood with you, than those who do.

How can it not be normal when Jack Fenton took Jasmine in so easily knowing he didn’t share any dna with her? Even more so with Danyal who doesn’t share even a drop of blood with either Jack or Maddie. Look at yourself father. Out of all your children, only one shares your dna. Do not try and pin this on Damian for being the only sensible person in this family. Blood siblings, ha, don’t make him laugh.

wait but i just realised jesper is absolutely gonna tell wylan all about milo and wylan is gonna be so hype about it when all the other crows were telling him to get over it

I love Waffles she's so silly looking. But GOD I do mourn the wolf palisman era he could have had a ouppy 🥺

#i was really into the idea of the new palisman being the furthest thing from a bird #he loved flapjack so dearly. but carving a red cardinal was never his choice #a red cardinal just so happened to have been someone else's favourite animal #and flapjack and hunter found each other when they were both lost and needed a friend #i liked the idea of a brand new palisman to reflect a brand new life #not a replacement for flapjack. but a new friend to bring into his life #a wolf is absolutely NOTHING like a bird #i would have gone crazy for a wolf #i dont hate waffles tho shes babie #i think her being blue is indication enough that shes not meant to replace flapjack #she IS a reflection of how hes started anew #its sweet really. he just fell in love with birds after adopting flapjack #he likes birdies. birdies are cute and silly. he wanted another birdie #i cant fault him there

when the marineford arc was ongoing and the chapter came out that revealed who ace’s dad was, my friend and i were so preoccupied wondering how luffy would react to finding out that he and ace had different fathers. and then a few chapters later luffy’s like “huh? oh yeah me and my brother have different parents. what does that have to do with anything?” and honestly i don’t know why we expected anything else

#it’s so weird to think about it now but when ace was first introduced i just assumed they were related #i know they have different last names ! but they both had the d initial and one piece is weird ! #it warms my found family heart that they (+sabo) adopted each other instead #and everyone just accepts this family of monsters and moves on #blah

[blackautmedia]

Thinking about how Nine came up with this extremely risky backup plan of playing prisoner to steal their resources and sabotage them from the inside.

Specifically, I think about how the biggest flaw in his plan is that absolutely nobody was buying his act when he needed to pretend he didn't care about Sonic. He even had a good cover of trying to claim that Sonic left him at the council's mercy so he doesn't care anymore, but nobody bought it.

Even the Chaos council who hates him can see how close he grew to Sonic.

Nine was doing well but what ended up blowing his cover wasn't having his insecurities thrown in his face.

What did him in was someone underestimating and insulting Sonic, to which bro just hypes him up. It was ultimately his affection for his brother that did him in and all it took was going after the people he cares about to get him to slip up.

In other words, Nine did the exact same thing Sonic did earlier. Same Mistake, same trap.

You can insult Nine, throw his deepest insecurities in his face and it might even hurt him a bit, but it won't make him crack.

Go after Sonic and he'll screw up his whole elaborate plan in seconds. These two are so painfully alike sometimes especially how they both argue and disagree with someone to speak up for the other in S2.

Nine is so intentionally designed to be angsty

But then Sonic makes it all melt away without even trying

There's a reason Sonic verbalizes Nine's safety before restoring his old reality.

This also becomes apparent in the second episode where the Chaos Council is testing Sonic's abilities and we see Nine's reaction to seeing him in action for the first time. He saw that Sonic wasn't just talking out his ass and had the strength to back up his claims.

Nine can't hide how impressed he is and this look that basically says "a friend I never thought I'd have giving me a life of joy and protection? I can leave all of this painful reality behind? This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. I can't give this up."

Brothers

One of my unpopular opinion is that we have been robbed of jiang cheng and jin zixuan' friendship

#They would be so fun/awkward /cringe together lol #I think they were friends of sort #They have a lot in common! #They want jyl's happiness #They love jl #They both like dogs #They are sect heir who can understand each other's burdens #They are grown with bad parents with a lot of issues and have adopted/ half brother #They are awkward kids lol #So I imagine them taking care of jl while jyl rests #And they talk shit of every sect leaders and then decide to buy new clothes #They would be so much fun with their bitchy faces and bitchy opinions #i will die on this hill #jc is in some way also jzx's widow in canon for a reason guys #jin zixuan #Jiang cheng #Mdzs

“My dad taught me how to read, and I had a lot of books.” Dani tells Jason. Then her face falls.

“I guess I should’ve known… if I was really his daughter he would’ve taught me more.. about school and.. all this other stuff.” She gestures to the air.

Her head lowers. “Stuff other than about my original and how to catch him.” Her voice wavers, bitter and full of venom. There’s heartbreak there too, and shame. She doesn’t hide it, either because she’s too young or she trusts Jason.

Jason grips her shoulder and pulls her slightly into his side. He knows she won’t melt or disappear into the air anymore but he still feels the need to hold her together. There’s something heavy in his chest and a sound coming from his throat that isn’t human.

She looks up at him with her eyebrows scrunched up and her mouth in a slight grimace and then hugs him back, burying her face into Jason’s stomach.

“I know,” he says with his human mouth. “It’s not your fault. Fuck him.” he grinds out. Jason knows he can’t be the person she needs. He’s too fucked up, his life is too dangerous and he’s got too many irons in the fire to not draw unnecessary dangerous attention towards her. But she needs someone in her life looking out for her- to trust without it being a mistake.

#Dani gets adopted by Jason #dpxdc #both of them got fucked over by a mentally ill superhero/villain billionaire father #neither of them really had a childhood #Dani was born already 12 and Jason had to grow up fast #both of them ‘failures’ #they would be so good and so bad for each other

Siblings

I feel like I don't talk about these two too much, they have a nice sibling relationship.

(Do you have any idea what we can call this duo?)

Spindrax and Red Son love each other like brothers

Both will be there for each other no matter what

Bonus:

#lego monkie kid #lmk au #abandonedprinceau #lmk qi xiaotian #lmk mk #lmk spindrax #lmk red son #They are adopted brother and sister #Both are a very nice platonic relationship #Both take care of each other

[lgbtlunaverse]

Not every single child - adult caretaker relationship is automatically a parental one and I'm very aware fandom is overeager to label them as such and I've talked about that in the past! HOWEVER!! I firmly believe that in the event of a time travel au where post-canon lan xichen - squarely in his 40s and feeling like he aged an extra two decades since guanyin temple - were to somehow be transported back in time and meet 7 year old big-eyed "never done anything wrong in his LIFE" baby Meng Yao it would take him all of 3 hours to decide that he's a stepdad now.

#in canon xiyao are equals and despite their societal power difference they are in fact both very careful to treat each other as such #as much as xichen's feels protective towards jgy he respects him even more #but that dynamic would change significantly with such an extreme age difference plus postcanon lxc's... everything #also... more than anything a-yao needs a decent fucking father figure. someome PLEASE adopt that boy #lan xichen is not the stepdad he is the dad that STEPPED UP! #the 3 hours are him speedrunning all the stages of grief on loop at the sight of a small living meng yao #and then he's grabbing him and meng shi and they are getting out of there!! #mdzs #meng yao #lan xichen

Will is an introvert & Mike is an extrovert

#byler #in comparison to each other at least #mike canonically adopted someone who looked to be anti-social to be his friend #it reminds me of all those extrovert adopts introvert things #although mike is probably a bit of both
