#A hero in her own mind

[ew-selfish-art]

DPxDC AU: Ellie was going to beat the shit out of this space cop if he was lying…she might just do it anyway but, like, fr she’ll throw down on Danny’s behalf.

Enter scene following a bad tandem clone + identity reveal where in Danny is captured and wounded, Ellie escaping just narrowly. She manages to get Sam and Tucker on her side and together the three of them save Danny. (Where was Jazz? Why couldn’t she find Jazz?)

Ellie has traveled all over the world, has seen its hospitality just as much as its hostility- besides Danny liked space right? Mostly, Ellie is panicking and, being unable to think of a place to take Danny while he’s bleeding out on her, she just goes… up. Out of the atmosphere and just beyond the satellites. It finally feels far enough away, tho she didn’t take them beyond the moon, she has limits to her paranoia thank you.

Imagine to her annoyance that apparently someone actually watches for biological materials leaving and re-entering the earth! Total Bullshit! She’s needed to make a number of trips back and forth to get Danny food and water and medical supplies- and she’s doing a damn good job of getting him stable. Too bad she hadn’t realized the ring guy following her sooner.

Turns out he’s “made a report” and “will find them justice” and “wants to help”. Yeah right. She throws down with him as best she can, and he clearly doesn’t want to hurt her so he keeps letting her get away with Danny in tow. Danny is sleeping through most of this but a few times he lets out a woop or a go get ‘em.

Eventually Hal calls the only person on the team with a single paternal bone in his body (even if it was only a single one most days). Pulling Batman into a spacesuit, into a ship and across the atmosphere shouldn’t have been that easy- though it was obvious how his agreement came immediately after Hal mentioned the wounded and entirely isolated twins he’d found.

#dcxdp #dpxdc #dc x dp #dp x dc #danny phantom #dc crossover #dp crossover #danielle #plz continue #I beg #by the time danny is recovered/comes to Ellie has fought all of his alien hero idols and he dies a second time #Ellie: if the green guy didn’t want to get punched he should’ve stayed in his own mind #Danny: el. that’s Martian man Hunter. el please say you didn’t #ellie regrets nothing and now Danny’s new coworkers all know where they stand #mixed results for bat adoption lmao #gl might even adopt tbh just to keep a better eye on her the guy seems chill #oh wait the male twin is over powered and has zero chill wait fuck batman give that one back

I love how Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse said “Anyone can be Spider-Man”. I love how it inspired everyone to imagine their own Spider-People, saving the day in their own universes, with all kinds of cool, interesting personalities and aesthetics and mutations and life stories and relationships. We all put pieces of our soul into these homemade heroes. We had fun. We found community. And then Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse said, “Wow, great job! You’ve really taken our message to heart. Well, get ready for even more of everything you liked from the first movie and a new message to complement the first. Anyone can be Spider-Man… and anyone can be pulled into a cult.”

So now we all have to contemplate whether our lovingly crafted heroes would ever be on Team Mandatory Trauma Because Martyr Complex or not and why.

#i for one made a second spider-person (diving belle) right after watching atsv #who IS on team mandatory trauma for reasons that make sense given her moral code and its context #her world has eldritch horror elements that give some of her enemies a sharper edge #and she has had to use lethal force #in a ‘stays true to her strict morality based around compassion nonetheless’ way like wonder woman #she’s used to tough utilitarian decisions #she’s learned that no hero can save everyone from intensely traumatic brushes with mind-breaking corruptive power #so when miguel gave his big speech she was ‘yeah okay. i get it. sometimes shit just happens’ #it was actually very enjoyable going through the character creation process #from the starting point of ‘WOULD chase miles and restrain him by force’ #and then working toward ‘otherwise a genuinely good person and superhero who could be the star of her own series’ #atsv #spider man across the spider verse #across the spiderverse #spider-verse #smatsv #sm: atsv #spiderverse #spidersona

(Leo speaking to Hephaestus:)

Leo: I used to think I was creative. I used to think I was smart. I used to take pride in the things I invented. But it’s just you, isn’t it? Everything I’m good at, everything I like about myself, it’s just your powers I inherited. If I wasn’t your son, I wouldn’t be able to do any of this. I wouldn’t be good at anything.

Leo: I thought that I had earned this. That I had learned when my mom taught me about machines, that I had built my abilities myself. But it’s all just shortcuts and fakery. It’s just god magic. It’s not real. It’s not mine.

#like it’s one thing if your power is water attack or turn into bees or something inhuman #but I imagine a lot of demigods have crises like this one #with powers that enhance qualities they already had so they’ll never know who they would have been without a god making them ‘better’ #like if Annabeth’s power is her intellegence? she can’t even take credit for her own mind (by this logic) #for a non-charmspeaking Aphrodite kid with a less unnatural level of making people like them? #when you can’t tell what is and isn’t magical affects then how do you know anyone would ever like you for your normal non-goddy self? #what about Hypnos kids who wish they didn’t constantly feel tired and could manage to Do more with their lives? #like imagine your special magic godly enhancement is Cannot Stay Awake and it’s a struggle to complete even simple tasks. thanks I guess. #there’s probably examples I’m not thinking of #but powers that enhance rather than add??? it’s like there’s parts of your identity that don’t belong to you #at least that’s how I would feel about it probably #percy jackson #heroes of olympus #leo valdez #hoo leo #pjo hephaestus

thinking about how they could've ruined madalena's character so many ways in galavant but they didn't < 3

#madalena #galavant #if they had gone through the richard love interest route that'd have been very not interesting and they could've also just made her the #bitch character which would've made me so mad #but they give her backstory! complexity!!! < 3 #I used to be doubtful about the maybe you're not the worst thing ever scene and thought that may be them considering richard x madalena but #later changing their mind (which idk if true) #but now I think it's great bc it has her opening up a bit when he's talking to her as a person and on their own rather than trying to push #any romance #and then she closes back up when he starts doing that again and we see her sad face after 'being forced to be the bad guy' #it's a great way to show pre- kidnapping madalena and show she's not one or the other she's both #anyway #LIKE madalena has trauma the way a traditional male hero would have trauma if that makes any sense

By Azura! By Azura! By Azura! It's a wip of the Grand Champion!

she's looking at martin

#oblivion #elder scrolls #hero of kvatch #tes #if you're thinking she looks like my dragonborn akhara. you are correct #thats her great great grandmother #the amount of tes lore i have created inside my own mind could rival that of kirkbride himself #anyway #i also drew martin but he keeps looking like matt mercer and i cant get rid of the resemblance no matter how many times i redraw the man #i WANTED To draw them both pining on the top of cloud ruler temple while it snowed and martins holding forgetmenots #but #whatever. its not happening today. the stars. not in position. #pina art

sorry to post a negative wof thing but sometimes i remember the “morrowseer is moonwatcher’s dad but no one knows or cares, its just this quirky trivia thing” bit and get irrationally frustrated. like if you didnt have any ideas on what to do with that tui then you couldve just. not done it.

#it literally makes no sense why she shouldnt know beyond ‘’some stray thoughts her mom accidentally let out’’ either #like ok iirc secretkeeper was barring her own mind from her. however she did that #but youre telling me that No One Else ever thought about morrowseer and his crimes #none of the nightwings none of the rainwings no one ever thinks about the queens right hand man #who orchestrated crimes against dragonkind and ruined so many lives or was a hero to some of them #no ones ever spared that guy a second thought? #or like- did no one know secretkeeper was morrowseers wife? did no one connect the dots that her secret baby was probably morrowseers secret #secret baby? its not like no one knew she was pregnant with his kid right??? #NO ONE that ever looked at moon and directed hostile thoughts abt her that affected her self worth ever went ‘’oh shes morrowseers baby #of course SHE was spared our same trauma’’ #NO ONE HAS THOUGHT ABOUT HIS CRIMES???? NOT A SINGLE ONE??? #wouldnt this contribute to her mistreatment and anxiety since he used his supposed power to hurt and manipulate people?? #but…. no tee hee its this silly little bit of trivia we wont delve into #like. again…. you didnt HAVE to make morrowseer her dad!! #like it comes across like tui came up with the idea of having the new protag be related to the previous antagonist and thought it was cool #but then didnt have any real ideas beyond that so she just made it this weird unspoken ironic fact? #like…. no i dont think its this ironic scene that she finds his literal corpse in the volcano and doesnt know its him #and doesnt seem that horrified by it #she should see that and feel incredibly complicated and disgusted feelings

trying to find a video to watch while i eat my hot honey jack and ham croissant and jesus fucking christ i don't care this much about the colleen stuff

#she's a bad person dunk her and move on #i don't need to watch a guitar hero remix of her stupid ukelele like why are you making me look at her dumb face this much #you watch five minutes of one dunk vid and suddenly YouTube spirals into its own twisted mind

[primoresplendens]

"Death is just an escape" is one recurring thesis in LoH that I love so much. There is no hell for you to go to. This life is all the chance you will ever get to be guilty. There is no atonement in serving literal dirt time in blissful unconsciousness, forever.

#lord of heroes #loh #and: it is not without challenge. mind you. even within the story #solphi disagrees for one #for her death means she doesn't get to do anything else - which is the worst fate for her as the naturalist she is #(& probably also because she considers herself without remorse and therefore won't feel guilty for the life sentence to be effective? 🤔) #the latter is just my own thought

...So uh, basically bootleg Suicide Squad featuring not even a comic's accurate team but instead, just random characters picked randomly from throughout the MCU, including even character's that make zero fucking sense to be on the team???

#anti mcu #cant even make their own plot #just gonna go for another film plot instead #like looking into the team in comics and where did the government stuff come from #where did goverment sends them on missions come from #in comics history from looks of stuff they just form cause the avengers are...well...dead....like always with heroes dying in comics lol #but like theres no signs of government #but that is what you know the squad in dc are #a government formed team who have villains as members in exchange for time off their sentences #granted marvel aint copying why the villains do it #but they seem to be copying the government element #and yeah if anyone curious which members make no sense mcu wise #honestly only us agent actually makes sense lmao #bucky we know makes zero sense at this point as hes a hero at this point after being freed from hydra and such #ghost literally at the end of ant man 2 was said to be getting the cure she needs aka her motivation for villain stuff #taskmaster and red guardian literally ended black widow leaving with the freed black widows and such not doing evil stuff #hell taskmaster falls into same area as bucky: mindcontrol- so how the hell does she count as evil #yelena they can't seem to make their mind up on but i generally assume hawkeye show intended for her to not be doing evil sutff anymore #since she only sought revenge on hawkeye thats it #but once told the truth suddenly no longer evil stuff #like only US agent actually makes sense and the lady at the end of the line who i guess is attempt at mcu waller #which...good luck because waller is a good character while this one so far...isnt

thinking about my graphic novel series again. i have way too many thoughts about it

#lohst.txt #recollections #taylor being percieved as weak when he is anything but #jay and her small rituals for artemis #aleso believing he is the mastermind behind every plan when in reality he is just as much of a puppet as the people he's trying to protect #the scene where jay breaks into aleso's house when the two are having a major and very public disagreement #(where aleso keeps calling jay the villain) #the dreamscape..... oh the dreamscape #jay's dreamscape safe haven being hijacked and it makes her lose her mind #aleso's hero complex will be the death of him #and maybe the death of his closest friends #because they would follow him blindly into any battle #and even though jay and aleso stand on opposing sides #the moment something threatens aleso's life (that isn't her) she is there to defend him in a heartbeat #and everything about mimikos and el rhubarbulous #they are perfection #taylor's corruption scene.... #taylor being trapped in his own mind while his 'dark' self is trying to kill his friends #(no but honestly i describe taylor's change during his corruption arc as like if taylor had a squip) #(we get cool and edgy taylor instead of the loveable taylor) #i have art my friend made that i coloured in #maybe i should write something #and i want to share stuff #its hard to stay motivated on this project when the other people working on it don't give feedback

Thus post went viral and of course no one discussed how the how the mother tried to guilt her daughter in law to attend or how the dad/granddad just stayed in the pool leavingbhis wife to handle everything.

#Reddit #Aita #Women can't enjoy their own parties #Men hide from family responsibilities at the parties they are supposed to cohost #Who was minding the food prep if grandma was wrangling the kids? #The mother knew she would be stuck babysitting on top of cooking #She guilty her child free DIL into attending so should get help with the kids #Dad is not a hero. #Dad is a bum who avoided helping his wife #Did anyone explain to the kids that pushing people into pools can be dangerous?

the song that inspired Amy's Answering machine bit came up on shufffle and now im very sad. Despite what the rumours would have you believe I did like her as a character and it hurt to beat her like that

#for non-lemesians a sad and eternally hero brained dragon on the verge of her own mind falling appart #was using her dead friends answering machine as a dairy to voice her anxeities #and the party found it while they were trying to stage an intervention for her frankly suicidal idolation with making heros out of them
