#There's a 4-year age gap

[brekitten]

The Family Plan, dpxdc edition

Danyal Al Ghul walked away from the assassin life when he was 13, just a year after Damian was sent to their father at age 9. Well, “walked away” probably wasn't the best way to describe it. He had escaped, because the Heir to the Demon's Head would never be allowed to simply leave the League of Assassins.

It wasn't too long after he escaped into the United States that he met Jasmine “Jazz” Fenton. She and her parents were attending a scientist convention of some sort, and she had bumped into Danyal at the entrance. Soon enough, she was introducing him to her parents. Danyal Al Ghul soon became Daniel “Danny” Fenton.

He had only planned on using them to craft a fake identity, so the League had less of a chance of finding him. He didn't plan to get attached, but he did. He didn't regret it.

Danny was fourteen when he died in the portal and became Phantom. He was fifteen when the League finally found him. Grandfather and Mother were not pleased.

#dp x dc #dp x dc prompt #danny fenton #Danny and Damian are siblings #There's a 4-year age gap #He couldn't go to Bruce because he was afraid the LOA would find him #inspired by a movie #Inspired by The Family Plan #The Fentons all go on the run #They don't know he's an assassin #Until he kicks a lot of butt and nonchalantly kills a few evil dudes #The Fentons meet the Bats somewhere along the way #Danny and Damian reunite

No joke I honestly think Mei Chang is one of the best characters in fma like this girl at the age of 11 with nothing but a small panda and the clothes on her back crossed a deadly desert that's stated alot of grown adults find difficult to cross, found a serial killer and his weird weasly little sidekick and went yep these are the guys I want to travel with from now on I will also defend this serial killer like im his professional bodyguard despite me being a tenth of his size, finds a sentient suit of armour and proceeds to fall deeply in love with him and later when he asks her to help sacrifice him to get his brothers arm back she does not hesitate and all that's on top of her being an outstanding fighter, alkahester and a princess

#fullmetal alchemist #fullmetal alchemist brotherhood #fma #fmab #mei chang #she is everything to me #also just side note #find it hilarious when people will say they dont like her and als relationship #bc they have a age gap #like i dont know friend #i dont think 3 years counts as a age gap #atleast not the one we need to side eye #with Hohenheim and trisha standing over there #and even roy and riza who only have a 4 year gap #but he is her boss #sooo #but anyway got side tracked there #this is just my mei appreciation post #i hope after the story ends she still goes to visit scar and yoki

[karlee, softly] "Oh...you're just a boy."

[andrew]: "Uh, hi" [laughs, a little shy] "Actually, I'm sixteen."

[karlee]: "I had no idea. I-I'm sorry.You're just- wow, Amaya, he looks so much like me" [almost breathless]. Ah! Amaya's my sibling."

[andrew]: "R-Right! I'm glad you weren't…alone."

[karlee]: "and you? I mean, are you…alone?"

[andrew]: "After my mom-well. It's kinda just me."

[andrew]: "Me and eight other kids around my age."

[andrew] I kinda always knew who you were. It's just- I never knew the right time to reach out."

[andrew]: "What if you hated m-"

[someone out of frame, pounding angrily on the door]: "Hey! Lillian! I told you to leave my computer alone!"

[andrew]: "Shit. I'm finished, okay? Just-just hold on."

[andrew]: "I'm sorry. I have to go."

not people saying "Babs was aged down so DC could pair her up with Dick" again

y'all. I cannot tell you how nonsensical this talking point is when Dick was still actively in a relationship with Kory when DC aged Babs down (a relationship that would not dissolve until 5 years later) and both characters had at least two other relationships between the age-down and them getting together in 2000

#dc comics #dick grayson #barbara gordon #dickbabs #I'm so tired of having to correct this weird talking point over and over #the ONLY time this is an allegation with any mileage whatsoever is discussing the post-Batgirl: Year One agedown #where Babs' and Dick's age gap was decreased from 6-7 years to 4 #that's it. That's the only one #the intinial age-down in the late 80s/early 90s had NOTHING to do with him

[nofuckingbody]

id be nice to see the age gap between you too in the tags

#we think its a common occurrence #bc for us it was normal #my sister and i hsave a 4 years age gap sooooo yes multiple times #no harm ever done #mom discovered last month bc we told her #by we i mean my friend and i

i made a rough timeline for the clone^2 au, just for my own convenience sake when dating things. some things might be out of order from the episode date, and thats also for my convenience.

September 3rd: Danny, age 14, has the accident in the lab that turns him liminal

September 10th: Danny is discharged from the hospital and given two weeks leave from school

September 24th: his sick leave ends, and Danny returns to school

October 14th: Danny sneaks into his parents' basement and releases the ghosts they have trapped in cages. Official birth of the vigilante, Phantom

November 27th: Danny fights Pariah Dark, and wins

December 24th: the Ghost Writer torments Danny

February 12th: Danny's 15th birthday

March 3rd: its been six months since Danny's accident

March 7th: Danny fights his evil future self

May 8th: Danny meets Ellie [age 15] and they become twins

December 14th: Danny finds out from his parents that he's a clone

February 12th: Danny's 16th birthday

Early-Mid April: Danny meets Damian [age 6] :)

Mid-Late April: Damian runs off for the first time, damages Danny's hands the first time

May: Damian runs off two more times in the span of three weeks, he damages Danny's hands both times.

Early June: Damian runs off one more time, damages Danny's hands again, resulting in permanent nerve damage.

Mid-Late June: Damian finally gives up on the League coming to get him and joins the Fenton Family.

July: Damian finally coaxes Danny into letting him come along with him on patrol: Wraith is born.

#danny fenton is not the ghost king #dpxdc #dpxdc crossover #clone^2 #danny fenton is a clone #this only focuses on the earlier parts of the au because those are most important imo. figuring out when danny's accident was. when he #became phantom. when he met damian. etc. is all pretty important stuff and helps me figure out ages beyond '10 year gap' #not super important stuff to much anyone else i think but its nice to have it written down as reference #i usually put danny's accident as happening at the beginning of the school year. tis convenient that way #me: hmmm when do i make danny find out he's a clone. beginning of the school year makes the most sense right??? #me:....or.... i could ruin his christmas again :) #thought about increasing the amount of times damian runs off but... thats a LOT of time he's run off and i didnt want to go overboard #same thing with danny's hands. thought about hurting him more frequently but honestly taking a blade to the hand is already damaging enough #on its own. catch a blade with his hands four times would be enough to cause permanent nerve damage and also he would have learned his #lesson if it happened more frequently. #so damian runs off 4 times in the span of essentially 2 months #and four times danny catches his blade. three times he got cut. one time he needed stitches #anyways thats the timeline for now. made totally for convenience sake and no other reason #totally dont look at my google docs there’s nothing there but half forgotten wips and cfau master doc

wait, so, someone tell me if I'm wrong here:

Baxter is 3? Years older than MC in Now & Forever? (I've only played through once and have a shit memory lmao) MC is 10 which, I believe, makes him 13 right?

He's one year older than the MC in Beginnings & Always. So that makes him 14 in the step 2 scene, since MC is 13.

That also makes him 17 in the Now & Forever step 2 scenes, since 4 years have passed, I believe, while MC and group are all 14.

Like, damn 😂 Poor boy wasn't kidding when he said he started to feel the age gap after a few years. I mean, I laugh because the sudden change in dynamic for kids to teens is CRAZY when you think about it but also, that must have been rough for all of them too 🥲 jeeze.

Like, don't get me wrong here. It's, in my opinion, perfectly normal to have a 3-5 year age gap between friends when you're growing up. That is just the experience of the school system (which is usually designed in facilities of that age range) at work. Grade school, High school, etc. We can also take into account that it's a small town, which adds another level to familiarity with people outside of your peer group and makes that acceptable age gap even larger. Typically, anyways.

But, we also know that your teen years are very hard when it comes to finding where you fit, and that social norms dictate a lot of really stupid things and pressure people into boxes they're not made to fit for the sake of 'harmony'. So it's really kind of sad when you think about it, how it must have felt to be in Baxter's shoes once he noticed that difference between him and his friends 😞 I wonder how much of an impact things like that play in the overall story, honestly 🤔 Qiu is the youngest out of all the boys too, after all, so how are they inevitably affected by it?

It's food for thought anyways 😂 controversy surrounding age gaps has always really pissed me off, as someone who grew up with a lot of much older friends (3-70 year age gaps) and younger ones too, once I was also finally considered old. The wealth of knowledge two people who are possible generations apart from each other can take and learn and apply is so important to people as a species but everyone thinks age gaps are cringe and sus so I guess we'll just continue to grow stupider rather than stronger 🤷 oh well.

I'm interested to see what kind of dialogue the game uses with this. It could be an excellent plot point in the right hands! I hope that it doesn't fall into the same potholes most things do but, we'll just have to see.

#by extension to this thought #I've realized that the age gap between #Ai and Micha #is actually 2 years instead of 1 lol #which means that if I put Ai at 6 years old #at the time of the car crash #then Micha would've been 4 #which is about as young as I think I can allow #for him to survive it lmao #iwrite rambles #iwrite posts #olba #ol:ba #olnf #ol:nf #ol baxter #baxter ward #our life baxter #olba baxter #baxter #olnf baxter #our life beginnings and always #our life #our life now and forever

idk why it was so funny to me but there’s something about colin ford as sam looking almost the exact same in 3x8 as he does in 4x13 but deans actor change being that extreme

#like they look like they forgot about the age gap in 3x8 #and then #idk it looks like the age gap got bigger than 4 years despite them both supposedly being in highschool #it’s just kinda funny #mac rambles #sam winchester #supernatural #spn #dean winchester

Was nobody going to tell me that Oscar was one of the grid kids holding flags at the Australian gp which was also happened to be Max's F1 debut or was I just meant to do the math myself -

#f1 #formula 1 #formula one #max verstappen #oscar piastri #they were babies!!! #they barely have a four year age gap #oscar is march 2001 max is september 1994 #fun fact schumi was the wdc both of those years #oscar was kvyats grid kid #i know that majority of the grid have known each other for forever but sometimes there's mad coincidences like this that blow my mind #like imagine telling someone in 2015 about who that one grid kid and that kid debuting in a toro rosso would become like #no because Oscar wasn't even born when Fernando debuted in f1 & he was at maxs debut as a grid kid truly the baby of the grid - #and max is the ninth oldest now the passage of time is scary guys - #edit: my dumbass got the number 4 stuck in my head Max is September 1997 so yes schumi wdc 94 & 01 but not the year max was born my bad #never trust my math lmao

When I say that Tae and Aaron T. have no boundaries and no cringe in their friendship, I mean: Aaron T. is dramatically sobbing to Aaron Z.(awkwardly patting T.’s back) about Tae doing a modeling job alone, saying:

Aaron T.: They grow up so fast! I still remember when I taught him how to tuck his boner into his waistband😭😭😭*long sniff then blowing his nose into Z’s sleeve* He came right into his belly button😭😭

And Z.’s just sitting there, eyes bulging out of his head and trying to process what did he just hear😨

sometimes i forget that kaeya and diluc don't canonically have a 4 year age gap, bc I'll see a post that implies that they r the same age, and I'm like, "huh." 😭😭😭

#cacophony of kaliya #ragbros #the dawn winery siblings #diluc #kaeya #listen. my older brother and I have a 4 year age gap and we have a similar dynamic to them so thats why i usually go with #4 years specifically aksjsjdjdh #also i just think it would be sadder if kaeya was still a young teenager when diluc left tbh #mixing in that trauma with teenage hormones yk #very fun !

I want to read bridgerton books before s3 and I saw you talked about the books as well are they any good?

God NO💀

Okay let me explain. Before I say anything I only read the first 3 books and the 6th one, which are Daphne, Anthony, Benedict and Francesca's story.

Here's my rating:

The Duke and I: ⭐ (Daphne)

The Viscount Who Loved Me: ⭐⭐⭐.5 (Anthony)

An Offer From a Gentleman: ⭐⭐⭐ (Benedict)

6. When He Was Wicked: ⭐⭐⭐⭐.5 (Francesca)

Daphne's book was horrible. idk if you've watched the TV show but *spoiler* that scene with Daphne forcing herself on Simon? It's ten times worse in the book.

Anthony's book was okay-ish I love their romance ig but both character were so bland!! Kate is so boring and insecure. It made me roll my eyes way too many time whenever she open her mouth lol. Anthony also pissed me off!!! I didn't like him in the book AT ALL. Their first time is a light dub-con *spoiler* Let's just say he made their first night his right while Kate was terrified and just wanted to postpone it so she can gather up her courage. It made me quite angry. (bare that in mind s2 is soooooo much different than the book. Plot-wise I enjoyed the book better and for characters, I loved the show. Only if I could mashup these two...)

Benedict's book is a Cinderella retelling. The premises were there but the book didn't quite met them. Again Benedict is so boring... he's nothing like show!Benedict and I loved Sophie<3 Their story is quite unique and if the show approach it right, it can be the best season tbh...

Francesca's was my favorite. Angsty, more than the first three. It's the only book that their first time isn't questionable (kinda) and tbh I really enjoyed it! I loved both characters. I'm not saying it's the best historical romance book ever but it was way more enjoyable than the other 3 I've read.

I gotta say these books are problematic and white asf lmao. Simon is literally blond with blue eyes!! It was quite a shock when I read the book the first time...

#and Kate is not Indian ofc #their age gap is also between 9-11 years if I'm not wrong #in the show is only 3-4 years #and Edwina is a sweetheart :( #they ruined my baby</3 #and Mary tbh #and show saphne is much MUCH better than the book #bridgerton #kanthony #kathony #benophie #francesca x michael #saphne #anthony bridgerton #kate sharma #kathani sharma #kate bridgerton #kathani bridgerton #simon basset #daphne bridgerton #francesca bridgerton #michael stirling #benedict bridgerton #sophie beckett

[angelofthursdayy]

it's kinda funny seeing people in fics refer to luis as "the elder man" out of him and leon as tho they're not basically the same age

#i kept seeing it so googled them to see how big their age gap was. thinking like okay leon seems in his mid to late 20s #so how old is luis for people to be saying this- guys he's 28 #he is. at MAX. one year older than leon #i thought we had an eggsy harry kingsman situation on our hands. nope. a year #ik it just refers to him being older than leon in ANY capacity but still do u get what i mean??? #luis serra #leon kennedy #leon kennedy x luis serra #serrennedy #serrenedy #ill use both since they're both in circulation ig #resident evil 4 #resident evil #eli.txt

[stiltonbasket]

stilton!! every now and then i see mystery oneshot pop up on the polls, could we have a preview of it?? or of one of them if there are more than one?

sure thing, anon! Here's a snippet from an age-gap modern AU with older!WWX.

"You were not old," Lan Wangji tells him. "Your colleagues and peers were older than you were, and you were so young when you adopted Sizhui, but you persisted in acting like—like an honorary grandfather."

Wei Ying pinches his nose to keep from laughing. "Lan Zhan, I was thirty-five. And Yuanyuan was only sixteen. I know I used to complain about my bad back over dinner, but I did not act like a grandfather."

"You did. I am thirty-five now, and I know it would not have been so difficult as you feared, for us," Lan Wangji says fervently. "But even so, you made the correct decision for Sizhui and the little ones by choosing not to—"

"And for you," Wei Ying interrupts. "You had no business taking up with a single father. You weren't even finished with school, and you could barely afford that little apartment you were living in."

"Out of choice, Wei Ying. I could have used my inheritance if I needed it."

"Yes, but you wanted to strike out on your own, and you were proud of yourself for it," Wei Ying says patiently. "And it hardly matters now, anyway."

Suddenly, Lan Wangji remembers being twenty-five and heartbroken, vowing to Xichen—through tears, no less—that he would never love another man as he loved Wei Ying if he had the rest of eternity to love in; and then he remembers the first night he laid eyes on Wei Ying after those six long years of separation, when Sizhui invited them both to dinner to celebrate his first orchestra showcase.

Lan Wangji was tempted to repeat his confession that very evening, and he would have repeated it if he had not been afraid to ruin the showcase for Sizhui.

"I do not regret the wait, or your choice. I could never regret it," he whispers at last, reaching up to touch Wei Ying's cheek. "After all, you promised to listen if I returned in ten years and asked the same question again."
