DP x DC: The Most Dangerous Card Game

Ok so Danny has essentially claimed earth as his. And he is fully aware that there are constant threats to the planet. Now he can’t stop a threat that originates on earth (that’s something he’ll leave to the Justice league) but he can do something about outside threats. Doing some research on ancient spells, rituals, and artifacts, he cast a world wide barrier on the planet to protect it from hostile threats so they cannot enter. This will prevent another Pariah Dark incident. However, barriers like this come at a price. You see, there are two ways to make a barrier. Either make one powered up by your own energy and power (which would be constantly draining) or set up a barrier with rules. The way magic works is that nothing can be absolutely indestructible. It must have a weakness. The most powerful barriers weren’t the ones reinforced with layer after layer of protective charms and buffed up with power. Those could eventually be destroyed either by being overpowered, wearing them down, or by cutting off the original power source. No, the most powerful barriers were the ones with a deliberate weakness. A barrier indestructible except for one spot. A cage that can only be opened from the outside. Or that can only be passed with a key or by solving a riddle. So Danny chooses this type of barrier and does the necessary ritual and pours in enough power to make it. And he adds his condition for anyone to enter. 

Now the Justice league? Find out about the barrier when Trigon attempts to attack, they were preparing after he threatened what he would do once he got to earth. How he would destroy them. The Justice league tried to take the fight to him first but were utterly destroyed, so they retreated home to tend to their injuries, and fortify earth for one. Last. Stand. Only when Trigon makes his big entrance…he’s stopped.

The Justice league watch in awe as this thin see-through barrier with beautiful green swirls and speckled white lights like stars apears blocking Trigon and his army’s advance. The barrier looks so thin and fragile yet no matter how hard the warlord hits, none of his attacks can get through and neither can he damage said barrier. That’s when Constantine and Zatanna recognizes what this barrier is. Something only a powerful entity could create. For a moment, the league is filled with hope that Trigon can’t get through yet Constantine also explains that it’s not impenetrable. And clearly Trigon knows this too for he calls out a challenge. 

And that’s when, in a flash of light, a tiny glowing teenager appears. He looked absolutly minuscule compared to Trigon and yet practically glowed with power (this isn’t a King Danny AU though).

And that is when the conditions for passing the barrier are revealed. And the Justice realize that the only thing stopping Trigon and his army from decimating earth. The only way he can get through….is by beating this glowing teenager in a card game. 

Not just any card game though. The most convoluted game Sam, Danny, and Tucker invented themselves. It’s like the infinite realms version of magic the gathering, combined with Pokémon, and chess. And Danny is the master. So sit down Trigon and let’s play.

(The most intense card game of the Justice league’s life).

After Danny wins, this happens a few more times with outer word beings and possibly even demons attempting to invade earth, yet none have been able to beat the mysterious teenager in a card game. Constantine might even take a crack at it and try to figure out how to play. He’s really bad though. Every time this happens, the Justice league worry that this might be the time the teenager looses. Yet every time, he wins (even if only barely). 

Meanwhile, Danny, Sam, and Tucker have gotten addicted to the game and play it almost daily. Some teachers might seem them playing the game are are like ‘awww how cute’ not realizing this game is literally saving the world. Jazz is just happy they aren’t spending as much time on their screens playing Doomed.

#DPxDC #dcxdp #Danny makes a card game to save the world. #Technically he worded the ritual so that they had to ‘beat’ him as those are the most powerful barriers and most reliable. #keys can just get lost or stolen (like the one to Pariah’s Coffin) #A riddle would be useless once someone figured out the answer. Like how no one takes the sphynx seriously anymore. #(Sorry Tuck. But it’s true). #And there is NO WAY Danny is just leaving a hole open for anyone to pass through. No thank you! #So…beating him. But it’s not like Danny wanted to fight so…he edited the ritual a TINY bit. Card games are good. Much less painful too. #Danny Tucker and Sam made the most complicated card game they could imagine. #It’s based on their strategies for fighting ghosts. Capturing them in thermoses. And MUCH based on a on field battle strategy. #It often requires spontaneous thinking on the spot. So Danny? In his ELEMNT. It doubles as practice for his actual ghost battles too. #They had SO much fun making this. #Sam added an entire series of plant cards that act as traps and healing ointments and duds that just take up the field. #Tucker added legitimate hyroglyphics combined with Latin as well as English and ghost speak. #Yes. You actually have to speak that language to play. With proper pronunciation. (Amity Parker’s think the three are talking gibberish.) #I headcanon Sam and Tucker are fluent in Ghost. #Constantine WILL figure this game out SO HELP HIM! #Some of the cards also have combinations related to constellations either in name or placement on the board. #By the way the board is based on a Hexagonal summoning circle with Rhunes along the edges #And the placement of the cards on the board and on what rhune MATTERS. #Also the cards move disintegrate and have certain abilities. Think of Harry Potter Wizard Chess. #But they are normal when Danny plays at school. This is just for ✨effect✨ Against invaders. #Danny faces multiple opponents. He also halts alien invasions. #While Danny COULD stop crime on earth he’s not sure how to fight a normal human and hold back so he sticks to ghosts. #The Justice league are going crazy trying to figure out who this entity is and after deep research are convinced this is some sort of #Ancient being who has protected earth for millenia. They have paintings on ruins and everything. #Danny is not aware they think this. #Raven starts praying to Danny as if he is a god and wrangles the other Teen Titans into doing so as well. Danny is still unaware of this. #Danny is not a King or an ancient. Just a very VERY strong ghost.

I don’t know how often Brennan brings up this analogy, since despite the amount of Lee Mulligan content I feel I’ve consumed, I’ve only recently dived into Dimension 20, but in Episode 4 of Adventuring Party for A Crown of Candy at 01:04:12, Brennan mentions a thing he learned about chess recently and related it to DMing and I was like, “Wait, I’ve heard him say this, and recently.” It’s the exact analogy he threw out as a taunt in the most recent Fireside Chat for Episode 22 of The Wizard, the Witch, and the Wild One on the Worlds Beyond Number Patreon, about how so much of his “planning” as a DM is just developing enough material to move aspects of the narrative into the good positions to be used later-

These two talkbacks are nearly four years apart in their release date, and I coincidentally listened to them less than four days apart from each other. It just goes to show, I think, how deeply Brennan thinks about DMing and his philosophy towards the art form and practice of it. He pulled the same reference out of his brain years after he learned it, and expressed it in a totally different tone and context. He really is so good at this game.

The understatement of the century, I know, but I just think it’s neat.

#also that chess analogy really seems perfect to me #even as someone who’s never DMed #queerlyvictorian posts #brennan lee mulligan #worlds beyond number #the wizard the witch and the wild one #dimension 20 #a crown of candy #d20 acoc #adventuring party #wbn fireside chat #wbn fireside chat spoiler

Mike mentioned at one point that he wished there were a tense for things that once had happened but have been undone by time travel (and I think I heard that there actually is such a tense in The Speech in the Young Wizards series, which I have not read.)

Now consider this: a tense for things that happen in at least one iteration of the future and are currently affecting the present via time travel, but are not necessarily still going to happen.

Kept reading your chess wizard and herman series, I'm so hyperfixated on it so much like it's so good

But what if herman saw chess wizard playing chess with albert, like albert also become infatuated with the chess wizard cause he hated how he Lose but also loves a challenge and herman is just there having beef with albert

Okay but like-

This is somehow worse than typical 'cheating' for the Doctor.

You're playing chess?? With another man?! Scandalous!

Really, how could you do this to him?!

It shouldn't have come as a surprise, really. Of course Albert Wesker was a chess nerd too. He's got enough poise to keep anyone (including you) guessing and he provided you with some much needed challenge.

Though you conquered him soon enough.

And that left him both a little stunned, a little pissed and more than a little intrigued by you.

Wesker was made to be perfect, both physically and mentally. It's extraordinarily rare for him to find anything worthy of his attention, nothing more than a passing glance, but you have managed to stump him and had him actually using his mind for what feels the the first time in an entire lifetime. He can't play haphazardly in your presence. Even if his poker face is impeccable, he can't bluff his way to victory. Not with you. Wesker truly needs to work for a win and still, after a handful of chess matches, he still hasn't won against you.

Infuriating but a little arousing...

You don't know how the Doctor figured out you found a new chess buddy, but damn was he pissed. He didn't say much but the crackles of electricity and the hateful glare he threw your way told you everything you needed to know.

If he could speak properly, he'd call you a dirty little cheater. He thought what the two of you had was special! The Doctor is aghast! Speechless! Shocking you until your brain is liquid isn't good enough! Tunneling you every match isn't good enough!

Why, you've broken his heart here!

It makes him want to clip your little wings so you can't fly away anymore, so you can't visit these... others and so you couldn't play with anyone else but him...

Really, though, with you playing so hard to get, it wasn't just pissing the Doctor off.

You were turning him on as well...

[astral-schools]

you are the most important person in this story.

you are dead.

this story is your own drawn out funeral. you are not the main character, and yet your ghost lives in the shadow of every step they take. you have been consumed, body and mind, and words spill from your voice without your direction. your actions are judged in your absence; you are on trial and you cannot defend yourself. you have no defense.

you are not the main character. you are not a character. you are a foundation. you are an idea. you are a lesson. (you are a villain, in every story but your own.)

there are two ghosts in this story. one is at the center of it all. the other is you. the first one is also you. he decided to be. (and then he decided not to be.)

(he killed you and decided you weren't good enough.)

you didn't have a voice. you didn't get a say. you weren't even there.

no one knows how you felt about dying. they didn't need to. you are not a main character in this story. (this story is not about you.) you are the most important piece of this story. (this story could not happen without you.) you do not have the power to change anything.

you have the power to change nothing. (whether you want to or not.)

you are in checkmate.

(you've never been very good at chess. what an infuriating game.)

Adding onto the wizard and king idea: the dominant religion in the magic Kingdom worships dragon deities, one of which is the god of magic who chooses and blesses the royal wizard with the Powers. Such a sorcerer needs to go train for years though once he's of age before he can subsume the duty of Big Fuckoff Powerful Magic Man.

So! Prince (who's like third in line) and apprentice were best of friends, teenage/early 20s sweethearts, extremely in love, undoubtedly insperable. The time comes, however, for the apprentice to go off and be dragon trained or whatever, and he fucks off. The prince promises to always love him 'I'll wait for you forever' etc etc etc, thinking of him every day, and showing no interest in the potential brides his family drags in front of him because why would he when true love is promised to return to him.

Cue old king dad dying. And the old king's brother. And eldest prince. Dead from battle they were, very tragic. Lover boy is crowned king, blessed be by the draconic god of being a big leader man and now mom wants him married and normal and continuing the family line, no ifs ands or buts about it.

And who better than the beautiful, intelligent princess of the country they just had to make a truce with, joining the two powerful kingdoms hand in hand and beginning a new Era of Peace and Heteronormativity. Years pass. Things are fine. The old wizard finally retires at like 82 and dearest old flame comes running back to fill his place.

And dear scaley ass gods; their meeting after like 15 years of separation is.... hoo boy, it's clear they still harbor ALL the feelings, time failing to erode the connection they have and only building on the longing they felt. Queen Wife watches as her husband's face is lovingly cradled in the hands of a man twice his fucking size with a twitch in her eye, but she's ready. Her mother in law gleefully warned her about the impending shit storm and she's all too happy to remind her husband of who he's married to while laying down the law with the wizard she wouldn't trust on principal if it also weren't for the fact that he's two inches from having his tongue down the kings throat.

Wouldn't want the peasants to think we're faggots or something, now would we?

So the queen gets between them. The rules are set in stone. The king folds and agrees and starts acting distant much to the wizards initial shock and anger, but worry not, he's a smart little cookie who can see his boy age sweetheart is hiding what he really feels under seventeen layers of politics, propriety, and being wife shamed.

The wizard is a patient and conniving bitch. It's only a matter of time, effort, and carefully applied pressure before the king breaks. And he'll be there to have him. Forever, this time.

#jacq writes #but why are gods dragons #because i feel like it. so there. #and the wizard can morph into a cool half dragon half guy when he's feeling spicy #with wings and horns and scales and shit #very fun #he's playing 5d chess with the queen while the king's trying to keep the peace in the land #there's a war he's trying to avoid and a plague they just beat off #all the fun politics
