#they're super weird okay

[nerdpoe]

Young Justice is always a little...concerned. With Phantom's living situation. Now they're outright afraid for him, and Bart has decided it's time to Ask An Adult.

It was the little quips. The tiny little things. Stuff that didn't seem to matter to Phantom at all, or appeared to be normal for him, that he didn't realize weren't normal at all.

"Oh, better not hope my mom catches me." "Doing what, staying out past bedtime?" "Nah, using my powers; she'd vivisect me!"

"Another stab wound. Great." "Don't worry Phantom, I've got the med kit-" "Oh, I'm not a baby or anything, I can handle it just fine. Just gimme a sec to take it out."

"My dad has better aim than that." "...Like, when he's hunting, right?" "...At what other times would he be shooting at me?"

"Huh. Not as bad as my parents place. Look; they have a decontamination shower!" "Phantom, this lab has been vandalized to the point of needing a hazmat suit." "Did I stutter?"

Finding out each others identities did nothing to soothe the worry. Tim quietly told the others that every time he tried to run facial recognition, he kept hitting a government firewall he couldn't breach. Phantom never told them his last name, just his first, and 'Danny' is super common.

The thing that really did it though, the thing that made Bart snap and run off to ask Max, was when Danny had a nightmare.

He was talking in his sleep.

"No. Don't-stop. Stoooop. I need...my skin. Mom, no. You can't...peel off...my skin..."

Bart didn't even wait for them to wake Danny up before he was standing in front of Max, talking a mile a minute as he tried to figure out what to do, with Wally staring in horror over a plate of waffles as he computed everything that Bart was saying.

~~~~~~

Danny had a dream about his mom and Skulker arguing about how to skin him. He wouldn't really call it a nightmare, because it was just Skulker, but the scariest thing was Skulker insisting to his mom that it was possible to skin him with a potato peeler. Dream mom was arguing that it was not, and that from a scientific standpoint that was a really piss poor way to preserve a specimen.

He hadn't been begging them to stop hurting him, he'd been whining at them to knock it off.

But when he wakes up, it's to a room full of worried friends and an old man who calls himself Max.

"Kid, I think we need to talk."

#dpxdc #dcxdp #dp x dc #dc x dp #phanfic #story prompt #first convo was with cassie #second was with bart #third was with kon #fourth was with tim #max is fully prepared to take in another kid #bart is fully prepared to share #wally went to dick to ask him to put his detective training to work and find phantom's parents #wally was just visiting max #catching up #shooting the shit #when suddenly bart comes in and just trauma dumps about one of the other young justice heroes #who is apparently in a super abusive situation #and probably needs help #body horror tw #skinning tw #but only mentioned in the context of a super weird dream #danny's living situation COULD use some improvements #but it's not as bad as everyone thinks #anti ecto acts are still a thing #but as long as danny is with young justice the GIW leave him alone so #eh #not like they're good at their jobs anyways #max is about to blow his mind with the following information #“you are not okay. it's okay to not be okay. but kid. you need help and we're offering.”

Together through it all! #Both of them hate it but are powerless to change what they were sculpted into! #Anyway. How are we feeling tonight guys.

i think in the hamster wheel of my mind a big part of where people go wrong with eddie and his shitty garage band as an extension is that they for some bizarre reason think he's gene simmons metal when he's jack black metal. heavy metal. he's tenacious d metal. he's school of rock. he's stoner lord of the rings metal he nearly wore blue jeans and plaid. jack black literally in real life once said eddie was the best character bc he's heavy metal like him. LOOK AT THIS

#🍦 #answer it's bc people think he's some mishmash of all alternative scenes without any actual knowledge of where the mashing occurs 😭 #eddie is . a heavy metal guy. A cool one. a nice one even. he likes rock and roll #it's so funny when ppl try and describe it and they've never heard the stuff he actually listens to in their lives for some reason #literally so much of the appeal of eddie's character within his subculture is that its theatrical and dramatic but its still grounded #he's very alternative and Out There but he's still just some guy. he's not wearing spiked leather jackets #in fact he's not wearing any of the other kinds of leather jackets i've seen people say he would ... TO ME #sts #if u haven't seen the clip he then proceeds to air guitar the MoP melody then shouts heavy metal is everywhere #i don't even know how to explain this bc it's like ... okay #the general .. VIBE? aestheticsm? is kind of similar to what people sometimes portray but they're missing thst it's tongue in cheek #like it's like that buff poster of him being this anachronistic homage to heavy metal album covers #fire and satanic imagery and skulls and lightning and big drama and ROCK AND ROLL #it's rock and ROLL man... #and people r making him this weird sanitised dork LOL 😭 when he's a dork in a different more fun way.. imo #and it's not that those types of people don't exist and that they're not cool in their own way cuz they are sure but that's not THIS GUY #he is an 80S METALHEAD... and yeah i try and ground him in thinfs and poke and prod at it until it fits my own understanding of alternative #scenes better but that's bc i've had a hand in the punk scene for years and years #i dunno sometimes i feel like ppl r just not doing the full potential and then going way too hard in this super specific direction #and he ends up first of all usually just a massive douchebag not sure what that's about. But a guy who he would in canon HATE 😭 #YOU ARE MAKING HIM A POSER. is what i'm saying #he is alwyas some guy before he's anything else and before he's that he's a 20 year old loser #you need to reflect this... You need to bottle it. ugh. ugh #so much of this reminds me of the time someone was like he would never wear PLAID #like are you kidding me. are you actually kidding me rn #ppl have this weird arstheticised mostly modern and mostly literallt just eboy Idea of what he'd wear it's crazy to me sorry #also it's ugly #i also think. this is so long lol . anyway . i also think going too ''authentic'' in the 80s metalhead direction also lands u w different #problems. my advice to people trying to write or draw alternative characters is they are People. before they are anything else #🍏

finished watching netflix atla! i think the hate is unjustified lol like all that hate seems a little too intense for what i think the show missed. it didn't hit all the same notes as the original show, yeah, so i'm not sure it quite succeeds as an adaptation, but as a standalone show it's pretty good. and i might have some gripes with the characterization, but there was love in the casting and in the costumes and the world, and that goes a long way for me.

#even tho the costumes DID look reallt new lol #rei rambles #natla #as a show i'd give it like a 7.5 or 8 out of 10 #as an adaptation... 5? 6? #the pacing was kinda weird and katara could be meaner but she wasnt terrible #sokka having a confirmed Thing with suki undermines the way his *first* girlfriend became the moon but that's also whatever #i actually LOVED the way they gave more to iroh and zuko about lu ten #and i heard ppl were mad abt azula which is like... why? she barely appears???? #as for ozai being more emotional--i GET the gripe i do. really. i just. i am not immune to daniel dae kim okay. #been weak for him since i saw him in hawaii five-o and lost okay #first big asian man crush. only handsome asian man on north american tv for a very long time. #im okay with them humanizing ozai if it means more daniel dae kim ngl #narratively sure yeah it sjpports the zuko's and azula's characters better if he unequivocally sucks #but if they're gonna give him more acting meat i'm not gonna mind in the SLIGHTEST #but anyways yeah they v clearly spotlighted iroh & zuko over some team avatar stuff and i'd be more about it if it wasnt done well #but i actually liked it so i dont mind at all #zuko and iroh were super great

BG3 OCs

Meet my various Tavs and Durges! Aune, the first on this list, is my very first Tav. I fell in love with her SO hard that there are two other AU/world-state/timeline versions of her — both durges; one Resist and one Embrace. This trio is the nearest and dearest to me and it shows through their very elaborate backstories & lore. I hope you enjoy learning a bit about them & the rest of the OCs!

(Alt. text available for all images, except for the dividers/spacers. Includes transcript of the text on the images, plus descriptive text.)

AUNE, the Sword-Dancer (tag | she/her | agender | half-drow | love interest: imyrr (dead), astarion | playthrough: completed)

bio: Aune was brought into the world via a ritual birth; one of great tragedy and bloodshed. When her Lolth-sworn mother found her newborn child lacking, Aune was abandoned on the streets of Menzoberranzan and was raised as a slave. She escaped to the surface in her young adulthood, possible only through the help of Eilistraee’s followers. Her life improved a hundredfold within the Church, but she still felt out of place — too abrasive, too cold, too self-serving. Things changed for the better after Aune fell in love with a fellow Eilistraeean warrior who challenged her worldview, but after just a year of bliss, she lost her lover to a violent death. Racked with grief and more lost than ever, Aune was in the midst of a 5-year long crisis of calling before being kidnapped by mind flayers…

AUNE, the Lady Carrion (tag | she/her | agender | half-drow | love interest: gortash gale astarion | playthrough: in progress, act 2)

bio: Though born through the same means as tav!Aune, Bhaal had a different fate in mind for Aune. At 15, durge!Aune kills her slave-master — freeing herself and unwittingly summoning her faithful butler, Scleritas. After years of living amongst Myconids in the Underdark, Scleritas finally convinces Aune to surface in Baldur's Gate and claim her birthright. Years later, she finds herself on a ravaged beach with very little memories — only a kinship with mushrooms, soil, and bones; a reverence for the boundary between life, death, and rebirth; and a restless craving for spilling blood.

AUN XORLARRIN, the Bloodsinger (tag | she/her | half-drow living as a drow | love interest: gortash, ascended!astarion | playthrough: not started)

bio: Aun was the fateful ritual child born to a zealous priestess of a Menzoberranzan House. She was the culmination of everything her mother had worked towards; a child with power and a destiny, one to be shaped and molded into a tool to serve her own ambitions. The secret of Aun's lineage — that she was a half-Drow — was carefully guarded, known only to a few. Aun was raised in the way of Lolthite women (to be cruel, cunning, and ruthless), but her blood ultimately called to a different deity. On her 17th birthday, Aun awakens. She heeded the song that keened in her blood; it drew her ever southward to Baldur's Gate, sometimes in the company of a strange imp. Within just a few days of being on the surface, she meets a young man with dark, tired eyes and a pained smile; neither with any awareness of just how tightly woven their fates will become when they meet again years later, Chosen before Chosen.

LETHE, the Feylost (tag | they/he/she | genderfluid | tiefling | love interest: gale | playthrough: in progress, act 1)

bio: Somewhere in Faerûn, a wee tiefling is relinquished to the Fey. They grow up lonely and isolated in the Feywild under the care of an Archfey guardian whose attentions are few and far between. Despite living a lifetime in a Plane so replete with magic, the tiefling had no skill for wielding it. One day, they are told by their guardian that they must return to Faerûn, a place they are unlikely to survive due to their many inadequacies. When the Archfey offers them a pact - powerful fey magic that they could use to fight and protect; fey magic that could make others love them - the tiefling accepts. Lethe was strange, unsettling, and tricksy, as all fey-adjacent should be. Still, they spent their first year in Faerûn carving out a space for themselves — making a living performing in taverns, seducing strangers, and charming people before cleaning out their pockets. It was all going just fine until Lethe got yoinked up onto some nautiloid.

VIR, the Exiled Elturan (tag | he/him | tiefling | love interest: lae'zel | playthrough: in progress, act 1)

bio: Vir was born into an Elturan family of proud Hellriders and was expected to take up the mantle - especially by his mother, who had always desired to do so but could not because of her poor health. By the time Vir is old enough to form memories, all that is left of the family is his mother and himself. The pair are of humble means, and as Vir ages, his mother grows sicker, and he becomes more disenchanted, eventually resorting to thievery to support the two of them - even as he simultaneously trains to join the Hellriders. Inevitably, he is caught, and against all odds, escapes his severe punishment by fleeing the city; effectively now an exile. In his exile, Vir makes a life of bounty-hunting while also becoming accustomed to the ways of the land and its creatures. He has a skill for it, and is mostly content with his new life; but he can't keep out the resentment he feels towards his mother, his city, and its protectors, who he feels utterly failed him. Or the guilt he feels for abandoning his mother - especially once Elturel is dragged into the Hells. He wrestles with the risk of reentering the city once it returns, but his decision-making is rudely interrupted by some illithids.

#EDIT: hellsite flagged this post so it's not visible on the dash or tags 🙃 #if you read even part of this ily #I swear I tried to keep the bios SO SO brief like. I was fighting out in these streets okay. constantly reediting and cutting bits out #so if anything sounds weird or like there's crucial information missing WELL that's why #I've been fussing with this post for over a month now 💀 and I could keep going but I just need to put it out there so I can move on #and actually have an OC page/post/section again lmao #in the future I might add more characters to this post. because there are more lol 🥲 but they're not as fleshed out as the ones above so #it'll be quite a long while until then #might do like a super brief post for the WIP OCs ?? we'll see! #oc: aune #oc: durge!aune #oc: embrace!aun #oc: lethe #oc: vir #durge #tav #bg3

And people bitching about Yaz’s gay arc or whatever because it doesn’t fit their personal experience need to shut up about it, really, you are not a monolith and you’re just betraying your ignorance. Just because it’s not relatable to Your personal lived experience, doesn’t mean it isn’t to others, and the casually offensive bs that is spouted in some circles is both inherently self centred and most ironically, pretty homophobic. 

#dw shit #there is sooooo much bullshit here #it's hard to unpack it all #yaz's coming of age story including something about sexuality is not weird #it's not weird it happened when she was like 24 in general!!!! #but Especially in the context of the story where we know for a fact yaz was friendless and bullied in school #went straight to a job she overworked at #then met 13 and did nothing but travel with her #like hmmm woman who has Probably not had a deep friendship with anybody let alone a woman #in her adult years #doesn't realise she's In To another woman and thinks they're just friends #is... very explainable in every way #like??? r u guys okay #it would be perfectly explainable if yaz was a social butterfly and Still didn't notice till then! #an uh #najia asking yaz if she's dating 13 and getting a nope and then asking if yaz is dating ryan is #a parent that has no idea whom their kid is into and is deliberately being Inclusive so they don't box them #and/or let them know it's alright if they Are into the same gender #basically her mum is nosy af but not homophobic the end #and tbh since sonya isn't shy about talking about dudes it's probably Super obvious to her parents that yaz Doesn't talk about dating #in a compare and contrast way

here's my proposal for how i would have made the sonic movies better: i would have based them on the bible

#the sonic the hedgehog bible that is #i would make it so that he was born in nebraska had eggman like a father figure to him and then. . then eggman gets corrupted #and he joins the military and leaves sonic. but sonic heard that his dad was going to do some kind of science expo in cali #or something #so he runs over there (with his sisters ? can i hope for this to be considered?) and then idk maybe the movie plays out like normal #he could have sally there too i just realized! i think that could be fun #okay so he runs to california but he ends up in a tiny town called green hills and it reminds him of where he was born so he stays around #just for a bit you know #but then he ends up finding tom and he asks tom to help find his dad so they do that #but they're being pursued by this weird guy who kinda looks like kintobor and he isn't telling them his name #and they call him eggman because. well idk they can't make him egg shaped maybe just like. they have him eat a lot of eggs or make egg puns #but then halfway through the movie his assistant (i know stone isn't in the bible i just think he should be there) calls eggman robotnik #and everyone's like. hey sonic. isn't this guys name your dad's name backwards. #and then sonic like does some sacrifice or something and gives himself up and then he asks robotnik who his dad is and robotnik #like tells him that the man his father used to be is gone because something something chaos emeralds or whatever maybe it was another thing #it could be like. radiation if you really want to introduce the chaos emeralds in the second one #and it changed him to become a different man. ivo robotnik. #and sonic goes super denial and is like. no this can't be it. and he freaks out and he runs away back to his family #(family being tom‚ maddie‚ his sisters‚ and sally (who i imagine is more like his bff and not a love interest)) #and then they comfort him but they also tell him he has to take robotnik down‚ that his father is basically gone #and then this cues sonic talking about his birth dad who died tragically #and his sisters tell sonic stories about their dad and they say something about letting go #and so sonic gears up and he takes down robotnik and it's bittersweet and it's perfect #and the movie ends with sonic and his family at peace after they've defeated robotnik and can finally have a normal life in green hills #and then i'll get to my plans for the second movie later but that has more of the just. general world building from earlier #that was a long ramble

i like how much hfjone gives me thinky thoughts. ending spins around in my brain going wheeee whats gonna happen now who knooooows

#i understand a lot of people found the super-open-ended nature of it unsatisfying or anticlimactic #but i kinda. love it. actually. #there's so many different ways things could go from here #good and bad and everything in between #and most of them. really just feel just as likely as each other #my gut personally kinda says liam's eventually gonna lose himself and just end up assuming control of the plane #(or. any new planet he ends up making from here on out.) #but the optimist in me likes to think of a best ending scenario where he's able to get Stone back #and they're able to get everyone--including liam--back home. and they can. man EVENTUALLY rebuild their lives #cause boy there is WORK to do to fix everything #and. i like entertaining both those scenarios! cause. man i cant really prove either of them will or won't happen!!!!! #and. anyways. hfjone in its entirety i always felt was probably like. a suuuper personal art piece more than . yknow #a show to an appeal to an audience. if that makes sense #so i was gonna be okay with whatever ending it ended up getting cause sometimes super personal art pieces get weird endings it happens #anyway if you read this far hello hi. hope you're well #drink a little water and try not to stay up too late #me im gonna. umm. wait for my friends to stop being busy so i can rewatch this Again with them HAHAH #hfjone spoilers #<- whoops almost forgot to put that here #brifdi

(yuck! the weird part of summer came early! my attention span is shot and my head is full and fuzzy and my stomach feels like i'm forever inching toward the first major drop on a rollercoaster - i don't know why i'm anxious and confused! listening music makes my brain glitch and reboot and i'm super struggling with task initiation again. should i just go see "Across the Spider-Verse"?????)

#y'all i am super routine oriented and i always go bonkers in the summer #yes yes i know i can go on a hot girl walk etc #or whatever? #i know i feel weird too because i'm sleeping too much #i'm just so fucking anxious about financial stuff #y'all know this #since when do universities chop federal loan disbursements into two parts????? #okay maybe i will go to the movies - please assure me that it will make me feel better #just eating a fucking corndog parked in my driveway #does anyone else feel like they're -in trouble- all the time????

#also got absolutely railed on my birthday godbless #actually we had sex every night i was at their place this week which is. a lot bc we be fuckin for hours #it's great but whew that's a lot of time! ya girl has been sleepy as hell #* canje atx- it was fun and i would recommend it but i probably wouldn't go again #each thing we ate was good (except i hated Books' drink and they did not like the (v mustardy) callaloo) but most dishes weren't balanced #and they didn't present them in a way that made a lot of sense (i've been to one of the owners' other restaurants and it was similar there) #it was also unbelievably loud in the restaurant which would have been very unpleasant but it was fine being there with Books #like it was a bummer bc they had just finished the first ep of black sails and i'd just finished the first book in their favorite series #so we were both psyched for a good conversation over dinner but! not possible! #but we still had fun bc they're the only person on earth i could just look at and not talk to for an hour and a half #ANYWAY the appetizers did absolutely fuck we had a little tropical fruit salad and saltfish fritter and they were bomb #and i looked Cute in my little black dress with my new leg tattoo #** we had never done a movie night in before?? we've gone to the theater and we've watched tv at home but #hadn't done a full on lights out cozy blankets quietly stare at the screen for two hours before. it was great #*** my first time meeting a Mom and it was weird and scary and awk bc they aren't out to her so i had to use the wrong pronouns for them #but i survived. and they aren't super close for complicated reasons so it won't be a regular thing but. it was okay. #**** i spent christmas AND my birthday with them and #ok they're in school right this is currently their first semester of college #and they mentioned to their mom that they might be transferring/moving before they finish #that was my first time hearing that so i brought it up later like hey what did you mean by that where are you planning on going? #and they were basically like. if you pick a state i'll pick a school there #like it is time for me to start applying for jobs and i had been planning on bringing up this slight possibility with them but #i decided to wait until next week or later bc i didn't want them to feel obligated to say what i want to hear bc of my birthday #but they brought it up. because as usual we are very much on the same page #i don't even particularly WANT to move out of state right now but #to know that i wouldn't have to make the hard decision between them and my career? gosh #they're so good #i'm so glad i kept an open mind when my friend offered to set me up with someone the exact opposite of what i was looking for lmao #remember after that weekend i had those two first dates and i was like idk ab this Bookstore one... l m a o i was a fool! #now i am still a fool just in a different way

i don't get people who just insert themselves into others' plans....

#like i'm so baffled rn.. #for context: my friend & i are going on a weekend trip to another city next week #she just texted me asking if a friend of hers who i don't know can come with us #apparently she told her about the trip & now she wants to come with us even though she doesn't know me??? #at first my friend asked if she can stay in our hotel room & i said absolutely not like wtf???? #then she asked if it's okay if she books her own hotel room & just hangs out with us... #i reluctantly said yes bc i don't want to be a bitch but like i can't be the only one who thinks this behavior is super weird?? #like when someone tells me about smth they have planned my first thought isn't to ask if i can join??? idk this is so strange to me #idk if she's gonna be in the same train as us as well bc we booked everything weeks ago #i was really looking forward to this trip but now i'm kind of disappointed already.. #my friend clearly thinks it's not a big deal but plan your own trip with her maybe??? #idk am i overreacting?? this is an introvert's nightmare tbh 😭😭😭 #like what if i don't get along with her?? and i end up like a third wheel bc maybe they're closer friends??? #my first impression of her already isn't the best bc in all honesty who just inserts themselves into others' plans like that??? #asking to stay in our hotel room??? like the audacity??? idk i could never #girl i was really looking forward to this trip but now i'm just worried i should've just said no but as always i have to be too nice 🙄 #☁️
