#EXPLAIN THAT MARVEL

[spacy-snail]

Hobie Brown is the best representation of authentic punk culture I’ve personally ever seen in media

I feel like most “punk” characters are just visually alternative, and maybe a little “stick it to the man”, but that’s about it. They ultimately don’t stick the landing when it comes to the values the punk community has

But Hobie does!!! He backs his words up with his actions! He sticks to what he believes in, causes chaos, fights fascists, is an instigator, is anti-establishment (including the spider society), he has blue and yellow coded laces (as always these animators are amazing and did their fucking research), and he literally disrupts every scene he’s in with his art style!!

And most importantly, he CARES about his friends, which is what I think a lot of “punk” characters ultimately are missing. He’s the ultimate hype man for Pavitr and Miles, he helps Miles escape like 2 minutes after meeting him, he watches out for Gwen when she can’t go back home, he talks sweetly to Mayday when no one else is listening

Anyways I sat there in the theatre watching this chaotic SOB thinking

Dp x Dc wherein learning magic is similar to learning how to play music. 

So basically, the creation of a summoning spell is like a full composition/song made of smaller components or ‘notes’ for things like gravity shifting, and geolocation, and transportation etc. which is why Magic can be taught and spells can be man-made. 

Danny, however, is the equivalent of having Perfect Pitch. He can compose entire songs of spells without really thinking about it due to his royal titles (ambassador/king/high prince) but doesn’t really know how to be specific which lands him in some trouble with Clockwork. His portals are coming along a lot better with the help of Wulf but its critical that Danny learns how to control the range of his magic *something something, for the timestream something* *blah blah according to the will of the ancients blah blah*. 

So put on the course to learn Magic, Danny decides to hunt down the House of Mystery and study up by himself. He’s doing community college online, what could a little bit of Magic self study really do to his schedule? This place has literally every magic resource he could need! 

Turns out he has a roommate in the House of Mystery- John Constantine does not take well to the fact that half of the spells Danny is creating are causing him issues with the JL. Random shit appearing, random shit disappearing, portals everywhere and don’t get him started on the fucking ICE present on every bloody thing the magic reaches. Not to mention there is no reason a normal human kid should be able to have this much power behind his spells. 

John attempts to teach Danny the basics like a little kid gets stickers placed on the keys of a piano. The problem is Danny has the ability to compose entire scores of Magic all on his own, and absolutely abhors the training wheels John is putting on him. 

Danny: You’re patronizing me! 

John: You deserve to be patronized. 

Just like, Danny learning Magic in various ways that you might teach kids to play musical instruments from the various Magic users in the JLD. Causing chaos along the way, found family, the whole nine. Stickers on the instruments for notes, taking away guitar strings that are ‘more advanced’ and replaying Twinkle, Twinkle little star over and over again. 

Danny can play the Magic equivalent of Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake but cannot play Chopsticks. 

#dpxdc #dp x dc #dcxdp #dc x dp #Danny Phantom #john constantine #jld #justice league #dc universe #Danny learning magic is a full journey #john is just as amazed as he is annoyed #eventually he turns to captain marvel and says 'hes your problem now' #'billy has no idea how to teach Danny cause he also randomly came into his ability to do magic #Zatana is losing her mind cause shes in total awe of him but also what a dumbass #Dr fate nopes the fuck out of there #eventually John figures out that the kid is mostly using ghost magic #and then assumes the worst about the kid being a revenant or something #Danny will not explain being the ghost king for any reason #why? #because its funnier to answer 'idk dude im from illinois'

Don't ask how it's the FENTONS, that explains all.

DC or Marvel + DP

When Danny was born, he was very weak, and they weren't sure he would survive. So Maddie, driven by a parent's instinct, resorted to unconventional means involving mythogical entities to ensure her child's well-being.

She summoned an entity, an otherworldly being, who, in turn, modified Danny's DNA. But he said he would be a hero in his name in the future. + It could be H'ronmeer, the Martian God of Fire, Rao, a demon, a god, Mamaragan, or even Black Adam. Or of Marvel comics, Odin, Hela, Mephisto, Bastet, Cyttorak, Shuma-Gorath, Skrull God, a Fear Lord, or for comedy, Gorr.

Don't ask how. It's the FENTONS; that explains it all. + Years Later As she and Jack years later see Danny's Danny Phantom form, they are like," You aren't a ghost; it's that demon, god,something we summoned as you were a baby fault. You just got powers from your 3rd parents." Danny was just shocked as he looked at his parents. They attributed Danny's extraordinary abilities to the mystical being they had summoned during his infancy, not the Ghost Portal! I mean, the ghost calls him halfa; he is half-ghost!

no you don't get it. Why Didn't They Find Elias's Body In The Wreckage Of The Panopticon. basira said "no bodies" were found at all, and while jon and martin had their whole thing going on, elias had already been dead on the groud in there for like fifteen minutes before the collapse. was he somehow vaporized into nothingness by the explosion or did jon and martin wake up somewhere else with a corpse on their hands? is he DEAD is he a BASTARD?

Favorite part of seeing ATSV in a theatre full of Hispanic New Yorkers:

When Miles says whatever to his parents, before Rio and Jeff could even respond half the theatre said 'DAMMMNNN-', 'Bruh-', 'WHAT DID HE SAY-', 'you DUMMY', 'Get his ass'

And the one dude who said "Now nigga you know you wrong-"

Meanwhile Rio and Jeff standing there like

Half of us in the crowd having flashbacks to when we accidentally told our mamas whatever and nearly got killed for it 💀💀💀

We do not give a fuck how heated you are!!! Do not say whatever to POC parents

It's codeword for 'I think I'm grown and can do whatever I want'

Also Bonus points to the copious amount of Dominicans and Puerto Ricans who laughed at this joke:

Because as a Latino NYer, it is the most New York joke in the movie and every time I saw it people fucking ate it up I love it so much

#if you don't get the Dominican joke lemme know I'll explain it #spiderman #atsv #spider man #marvel #across the spiderverse #miles morales #rio morales #jefferson davis #jeff davis

The Justice league is fighting some monsters, then one of said monsters proceeds to rip off Captain marvels left arm mid-fight.

He doesn’t notice and keeps fighting, somehow not realizing he’s missing a goddamn arm. The Justice league on the other hand, are mortified.

After the fight, someone (maybe flash?) runs up to him panicking, asking him how he’s not freaking out and in pain. Batman states he is probably running on adrenaline right now, and to stay calm.

Billy is looking around, trying to find out what the problem was.

Oh, his arm!

Billy calmly walks over where his arm is, picks it up.

*plop*

Billy adjusts his arm, before giving the league a thumbs up. He explains that this…feature was because a past champion was killed after getting ripped to shreds.

Needless to say, they started checking him for nerve damage after that.

[leverage-ot3]

say what you want, sambucky and hardisoneliot are the same ship in different fonts:

insufferable coworker

serving looks on the job

camaraderie

it’s been a long hard day

bro power

hugs, of course

totally not in love

and their chaotic (iconic) first meetings

so if you sambucky fans want a smart witty tech guy in love with a smart grumpy punchy guy, I highly recommend leverage! five seasons plus the reboot that is running that has two seasons so far

Prompt 119

Another divine twitch chat Au? Another divine twitch chat Au. With a bit of a twist. 

Billy would like to say it is in fact not his fault. It’s really not. Who hits someone with magic they obviously don’t know how to use? Well okay maybe he had done that before, but it’s not like he ever did it around other people where they could get hit! 

But someone was an idiot and now he’s here, as his normal ten-year old self kicking his legs while sitting in the Watchtower as the others argued. Apparently the League thinks he’s been de-aged, which is good as his secret isn’t out. 

The uh, issue is that something about the spell might have um, partially manifested the gods- or as he called them the Mediterranean Magic Men, if only because of how annoyed it made Zeus. Now everyone can see the chat that’s usually only visible to him and apparently it’s concerning. 

He doesn’t see how it’s an issue, Zeus has been silenced for the next hour and Hercules has been dying of laughter for the last three. Oh, wait, it might be from Mercury’s constant attempted flirting with Flash. …Or the fact they’re trying to convince him to commit a crime and he’s honestly down for doing so seeing as he’s a homeless ten year old who is down for getting clairvoyance and super speed for the next thirty minutes in exchange…

#prompts #dc #dcu #divine twitch chat #Billy has gone past panicking and is just *yep this might as well happen* #The MMM have somehow convinced half the league that Marvel was made from their magic and mortal blood a couple years ago exactly #“Why yes this is their funky magic creation child isn't he great we're still trying to get him to curse someone but he's still just a baby” #The league are all sobbing and freaking out because wtf why is Marvel now a- wait he came into existence 10 years old #What do you mean No please explain #Oh god the gods are ignoring them and bothering the poor baby marvel- #M-marvel why are you listening to them- DO NOT GO BACK TO EARTH JUST TO KICK A COP #SOMEBODY GRAB THE MINI MARVEL #How did this feral gremlin become Marvel?! #The MMM: Ah yes we're raising him so well look at how they grow :) #captain marvel #shazam #justice league #mediterranean magic men #Whenever the MMM talk or do something they're partially visible like colored ghost-mists lol #It's all over once they realize they can interact with the world again #Time to pick up their funky lil dude and go on a run through the watchtower #The champion of magic has to be pure of heart to deal with the gods' shenanigans

My fav Natasha plothole in the mcu

So, Natasha was born 1984 and was a part of the KGB, which dissolved in December 1991. Meaning, Natasha was a child when she worked for the KGB.

(Imagine 5 years old Natasha killing people for the USSR.)

But that did not happen because canonically Natasha joined the KGB AFTER her training in the Red Room. (it'd make a lot of sense if Natasha was trained to kill and spy and then joined the KGB)

But THIS is how Natasha looked like when she was graduating the Red Room. What a strange way to portray a literal child, right?

MCU writers: "Natasha was an adult when she joined the KGB. It was after her training in the Red Room."

Natasha being 7 when the Soviet Union (+ the KGB) dissolved and an adult in the 2000s. (she turned 18 in 2002)

So either, the KGB existed longer than it did in our universe or the writers fucked up (I believe it's the second one)

Like, mcu writers can create entire an franchise but fail at simple maths?

I wonder if/when Pavitr Prabhakar finds out that his girlfriend’s dad was supposed to die and that Miles disrupted the canon because it seemed like he didn’t know that was gonna happen. Pavitr was also not present at Spidey HQ with all the other Spidey people as Miles learns about the canon events that are “supposed to” happen to make Spider-Man. I think Hobie would tell him, or him and Gwen would.

Or maybe he did know it was gonna happen and started panicking for that reason. Then it would make more sense why he was not invited to Spidey HQ because he would have been on Miles’s side from the start, and Miles would have Pavitr, Hobie, and Margo on his side.

In the first Spider-Verse movie during Gwen’s background she mentions that she saved her dad from getting shot. Then in “Across The Spider-Verse” her dad quits his job as Captain. Soooo canon can be changed because Gwen had already saved her dad and everything was fine.

dude i fucking love how this server has communication as its premise and built into its fucking core. i fucking love that. bc it's one thing to be like 'this server is about multilingual communication and cultural exchange!!' bc that could present in any NUMBER of ways but like. with the federation and the eggs and a common shared goal they all decided WE ARE A TEAM. and like, ok,

when baghera was sus of jaiden because of the thing when pomme died and jaiden had been the reason baghera left her side for the only time that day, i wasn't even worried. i wasn't worried bc i was like "we just wait. because i know they will TALK TO EACH OTHER." and I WAS RIGHT. TWO DAYS LATER IT WAS ALL CLEARED UP AND BAGHERA WAS HELPING HER OUT WITH CUCURUCHO

and the ordo theoritas is functionally a secret organization. it would be SO EASY to gatekeep the lore, on grounds of "the federation is always watching and anyone could be a spy" and yet the ordo theoritas says that, like bad SAYS THAT, says OUT LOUD, "anyone could be a traitor" and then turns around and goes "hey person i've had a few days' worth of conversations with, here's a detailed rundown of everything we've learned about the island's mysteries, and the secret location of the ordo base". SOFIA was supposed to be secret from everyone, and for a little bit she was. but now like, the ordo theoritas is showing her to everyone. it would be SO EASY to hide things and to gatekeep things but they just. don't do it. here's the supercomputer!!!! don't forget to grab her waystone so you can come back anytime!!!

bad learns something. "i need to tell forever/cellbit/baghera". forever figures out a new way to protect the eggs, and he gets it to everyone within days. cucurucho tries to have a secret conversation and the entire server knows about it almost instantly and there are three people buried in the walls reading the subtitles and giving each other meaningful glances

i love it. i love it. miscommunication plotlines drive me up the fucking wall and the fact that i wasn't even SCARED when jaiden and baghera could easily have angled into an angsty tangled web of that and instead just MET WITH EACH OTHER AND EXPLAINED EVERYTHING AND CLEARED THE AIR ALMOST IMMEDIATELY was so fucking breathtaking. and this is a multilingual server. this is a MULTILINGUAL SERVER. i love it. i love it so much i want to cry. it's a server for communication and people Communicate, it would have been SO EASY to slip into monolingual factions and stick to the familiar but they DIDN'T. they DIDN'T. WE GET TO HAVE A THEORY TABLE WITH SO MANY LANGUAGES SITTING AROUND IT. we get to have conspiracy walls in every language!!!! idk sometimes i forget how fucking CRAZY all this is, like the scale of what they've accomplished

so yea thank you to quackity and the qsmp admins for this, and thank you to the streamers for hearing 'this is about connections' and taking it ENTIRELY to heart, and also thank you to whoever the fuck decided to give quackity's school class the job to look after a fucking egg to learn about parenting. bc holy shit. holy shit.

#qsmp #this is a mess but i keep marvelling at it ever since jaiden's streams #just that. it could have gone to hell. but they TALKED TO EACH OTHER. #and i kept seeing people on tumblr like 'nooo they're dividing them 😭' and i kept thinking in my head: #'it's ok. don't panic. don't worry. they're so good about communicating: roier will say something or jaiden will say something' #'and they'll resolve anything right there and then' #i fucking love it. i fucking love it. there have been cross lingual projects before that didn't breed community like this does #everyone is trying so hard to protect everyone. forever and baghera didn't even trust quackity and they were still trying to protect him #i can't express how much this silly fucking server means to me. i can't explain it #its so good. its so good. i love it so much i swear to god #like i promise you if some of the less active members were to step back online and ask about the lore #they'd get a FULL fuckin rundown of it even though the ordo theoritas is technically a secret society #just immediately #i love it. there may be gaslighting and girlbossing but there is NO gatekeeping #unless we count the french exp farm lmfao #idk idk idk!!!!! it means so much to me i swearrrrrrr #THEY'RE A TEAM YOUR HONOR. THEY!! ARE!!! A TEAM!!! #shut up vic #block game brainrot
