Danny, now an adult, has just moved to the city of Gotham. Actually heβs been an adult for a while, but every once in a while he has to end his life, at least legally, lest someone get suspicious. Usually whenever Dan or Ellie does an oopsie and pulls a firebird with being reborn through their core.Β
So legally, one Danyal Nightingale, has just moved to Gotham to open a bakery (Thank you for the wonderful recipes and bonding Clockwork) while taking care of his practically newborn son Jordan. Of course Elnath- Ellie- had to pull a core retreat too, which is just his luck.Β
It wouldnβt be a problem, but heβs trying to not be so broody. A ghost- even a half-ghost- carrying another core though, has instincts turned up to like, eleven. Which again, wouldnβt be much of a problem if not for someone falling into his dumpster late at night bleeding. A vigilante, which heβs sworn to stay away from that life years ago. And itβs not a lethal woundβ¦
But his instincts are screaming to not let the person bleed all around his nest, and he knows from experience that it would continue to bother him. Which is how he ends up with Batman on his couch to Danβs glee if the ghost chirps are to go by.Β
I've decided the only reason Lloyd, known descendant of dragons, didn't tell this to Egalt, who refuses to train non-dragons, is for the same reason he never mentioned he's the First Spinjitsu Master's grandson. It just never came up. Nobody asked him directly about it. And besides, he's only like, one-fourth dragon, so does it really count? He doesn't look like a dragon, and he has never in his life considered himself a dragon. Mentioning his ancestry to Egalt probably would've just made him look like some hotshot, or make him more annoyed. There's no need to bring up such a silly little fact. He's sure it won't be important later.
Just to note: the physical violence of cutting off toes is a stand-in for the emotional violence of mocking/exposing and then forcing Ed to repress his feelings. There is nothing Ed could say that would hurt Izzy the way he has been hurt, but he can use physical violence, which is something Izzy understands and will affect him.
And Izzy expects it. He immediately announces that "Blackbeard is himself again." That kind of emotion and the expression of it via physical violence is expected within piracy. What's more, it's a clear punishment, as Ed says, for threatening his captain.
The escalation to the shooting and removal of the leg is where the whole game goes too far for Izzy, but for Ed it was never a game. It was a consistent escalation of emotional violence culminating in his breakdown and suicidal spiral.
(there's a cat in my garden, she reminds me of you. lying on her back, sunlight catching her fur in the prettiest way, all soft edges and love. i cried over you yesterday. did you know that?
why couldn't you stay just a moment longer? now i have to grieve you, and i'll start with letting the cat in the garden inside. she'll sit in your spot, clean her paws of the dirt, and take up the empty space. i'll love her like i loved you. like i love you still.)
@venomous-qwille I am once again drawing your bots. This time, Sanii because I absolutely love his design (also totally not crying over his and Misuta's situation nope not at all)

"if you fancy Astarion, you might want to consider therapy. He's so damaged I must have him! Enjoy the fantasy and then call a therapist. It's a two step thing and it's very important you do both." - Amelia Tyler what do your narrator eyes see? πππ
Anyway today was bad and I failed fanart and it's late take OCs
His name is Nytis and her name is Elnae (I'm proud of myself for naming them so fast). He only calls her El and /has/ only called her El for years and he actually forgets her name isn't /just/ El.
if the pinned GFM reaches 45k by the end of the weekend (it is as 42.8k rn), i'll post a 1 (one) handful of new art (cropped mirrored fade-layered and warped to nigh-incomprehensible teaser snippets)
