DPXDC Prompt #142 Part 2
His parents had spent years working on their portal, to the point where they were neglecting their own children. Danny didn’t know any better, neither did Jazz. To them it was just how their family ran and for the most part it worked for them. It allowed Danny to really study space and the Stars. His room was covered with different ship models on the shelves, glow in the dark stars on the ceiling and posters on the walls.
Jazz had similarly explored her own thoughts and topics as she studied Psychology. Her room was more feminine but still had a certain scientific decorum to it.  
He never thought that he’d suddenly be ripped from all the things he loved. But here he was with the trench coat man, instead of taking some biology class or something.
“What happened with the portal?” Danny asked.
The man took a long sigh, “listen… quite a lot of shit went down after your accident.” 
“That tells me nothing,” Danny glared at the man.
“I get your upset kid, but let me at least know your name. Mine's John Constantine,” 
“…Danny,” Danny muttered after a moment. He wasn’t sure he trusted the man but he guessed he had no choice. He was also noticing he felt a bit off, it was the weirdest gut feeling and Danny was having trouble telling exactly what the feeling was. It was like the feeling was telling him to trust John, although at the same time John had this weird feeling about him that had Danny feeling weary. He decided to trust John just a little, hopefully it got him back home, after a moment Danny spoke again, “…Can you at least tell me if the portal worked?”
The room was silent for a moment and then John spoke “Alright, fine, I’ll tell you what happened but some background first, do you know who the ancients are?” 
The name didn’t sound familiar, “Ancients? Like Ancient Aliens or something?” 
“No, no…” John took a swig from a flask in his pocket and then started fiddled with an unlit cigarette he pulled from a different pocket. He then looked Danny up and down, “You don’t know the first thing about the infinite realms do you?”
“The what?” None of this was making any sense and the more Danny talked to this guy the more he was getting a feeling of dread in the pit of his stomach. Something about this conversation felt wrong, like Danny should know all of this already but he just didn’t. 
“Right well… I guess the easiest way to explain this is the portal your parents made was to the infinite realms.” John said, putting the cigarette in his mouth.
“My parents called it the Ghost Zone.” Danny muttered.
John seemed to chuckle at that, “I mean it is mainly inhabited by ghosts, however they aren’t the only ones, far from it in fact. I’m sorry but… I couldn’t allow your parents unlimited access to the realms. I had to disable it and prevent it from being reactivated.”
Danny felt a little disheartened after hearing that, he guessed John was probably right though. He remembered hearing his parents talk about how they’d dissect every ghost they found to study them. The bully’s at his school often bullied Danny over it especially after his dad and mom would continually embarrass him on parent teacher nights and on field trips.
Danny let out a small sigh, “so when can I go home?”
John looked a little surprised, his eyebrow quirked up, “so you're unaware of your situation right now?”
“Situation?” Danny trailed off, he remembered getting shocked and then he remembered waking up here, “where are we?”
John let out another sigh, “shit, well from my research you're supposed to know everything about your powers when you wake up.”
This made no sense to Danny, powers? Danny didn’t have powers, he didn't have the meta-gene.
“Powers? I don’t have the meta-gene. I think you have the wrong person.” Danny stated as he folded his arms in front of himself.
“Then how are you floating?” John asked with a smirk.
Danny looked down and he indeed was floating just an inch off the bed, he wondered when that started but the feeling threw him off a little as he stumbled a little trying to keep himself upright. It didn’t work and he fell back down on the bed with a little thud. He turned to see John watching him with a small hint of amusement in his eyes. 
“What am I?” Danny asked, his voice small and a little panicked.
“You, Danny Fenton, are an Ancient. I know the term makes it seem like you're old but the term is more because your people are ancient in age.” The explanation made no sense to Danny but he could somehow float now. He thought the term ‘Ancient’ was a little much for some floating powers.

warning: long idea that came from u so u deserve to hear about it
was ranting to my sister about ur sketches cuz i fell in love with them and they are hitting at like 3 obsessions at once so points for u-
anyway I talked about the fenton creep stick (the joker panel) and my sister (who never watched dp) asked what it was, and after a confusing explanation we decided that a fenton creep stick can be any kind of object that is 1) long and swingable (like a crowbar or even a pipe) and 2) sturdy and not easily breakable
after being in the phandom I saw a lot of headcannons that after the ghosts appeared, the fentons started doing speeches at Casper, and they gave out fenton creep sticks "to be safe" or that the fentons sell those to Amity Parkers (THEY'RE NOT GUNS so they can do it) so pretty much everyone has one
adding those ideas to the fact that my sister thought at first that the stick had something to do with CREEPS (like pedos or stalkers cuz of the name) I now imagine the most famous design of fenton creep stick to be one of those stun sticks (that can not only be used on ghosts, but actual creeps!!!)
enjoy this idea cuz it sure gave me joy
asdfghjkl anon your brain wrinkles are amazing that idea is so funny to me. The anti-creep sticks are advertised all over town and it’s treated the same as a McDonald’s ad. No one really gives a shit but they still take note when there’s something new out.

And if you wanted to throw in the supervillain AU, I imagine it would go like this:

For whatever reason I keep going angsty routes…
(Jaytim engame with unrequited jaydick)
Jay who had a crush on Dick that went from admiration/jealousy to big ass crush that persisted even after he came back from the dead, guns blazing and angry. Once his anger and frustrations about Bruce settled down his crush for the first Robin remained strong even though Dickie just saw him as a little brother. Still, he knows he’d do anything for him. Anything to erase that sad frown on his face. Even go, apologize to the replace- ahem, Tim, try to make amendments and at least befriend him, keep an eye on him and help Dickie get closer to Tim again. Dickie feels guilty for taking Robin away from Tim but he did not have a better option, Damian needed him….problem is, Tim needed him too. He knows that now. He wants to fix it… but he doesn’t know how to get closer to Tim anymore, not with the animosity between Damian and Tim on the way.
So, seeing Dickie so heartbroken about how his relationship with Tim has deteriorated after he gave Robin to Damian, then the Bruce Quest and then Tim being mostly on his own base of operations, Jason offers to help. How? The hell if he knows he just knows he hates seeing Dick that way and the replacement needs to understand the demon brat needed guidance. He is an assassin yes but still a kid.
So, Jason, the good samaritan he is(?), walks in to make amends with Tim…he owed him that much to be fair, try to befriend him and find a way to make a bridge between Tim and Dickie. Problem is he made a few miscalculations: it was somehow easy to approach Tim, easy to get to know him if you actually tried (the man wasn’t hiding, no one cared nor took the time to look), easy to understand how unfair it all was for him as well, easy to fall for his little quirks, easy to realize how similar they were at the fundamental level.
Would’ve been nice if he realized Tim had a crush on him before he went and absolutely smashed Tim’s heart when he realized Jason had a crush on Dick and only approached Tim in the first place because he wanted to help Dickie get his other little brother back.
It would also have been nice if he realized earlier how hard he had fallen for Tim.

really weird thing ive noticed lately re: hermits getting critiqued for stuff theyve said or done is that as soon as someone holds a shit opinion (even if it's just them being stupid, or a centrist, or saying a bad word without knowing what it means, or whatever) people immediately seem to flock to the 'this guy should die' 'kys' 'why are we giving this person a platform' rhetoric and like. that's not how meaningful change is made?
like, yeah, if one of my beloved CCs posted a tweet or video tomorrow about how much they hate gay people, or believe in conservative ideals, or they just said a bunch of slurs or whatever (these are hyperbolic examples obviously) then yeah, fuck them, they should go rot. but like, having some dumb takes, or saying bad things in the past, doesn't = evil terrible person...
idk, i feel like we can critique content creators without getting so insane about it. like, shit, there are things some of my favourites do that i don't like, but theyre not even really worth bringing up tbh. unless its something actually important, i feel like it just creates more drama out of nothing and all these assholes come crawling out of the woodwork to tell everyone how much they hate that creator. or find their content boring anyway so clearly they have no real merit to anyone.
more of an explanation of what i mean in the tags but yeah.
#this is kind of about ppl finding out x is a centrist and... apparently that means telling him 'kys' is ok#i dont even like centrism but like... wasnt he super right wing at one point? is this not at least a mild improvement? he's just some guy#i like his content. dont care enough to get into drama about him being a 'we should all just talk it out!' kinda guy. who give a shit.#this is also kinda about doc's little rant on twt about plestine/isral (spelling to not clog tags) which was basically just -#- 'stop asking me to speak on these things 1. i could get into legal trouble 2. i stopped talking about politics years ago for good reasons#which like. isnt my favourite response to things? but i also Get It yknow?#it wasnt as big of a deal as ppl seemed to think it was#(especially since he very clearly retweeted donation post and said hes against innocent ppl dying. which is pretty clear to me.)#anyway the milder things im talking about here is like. harry potter references or mild orientalism re: 'asian-style' builds#like. i could go mad about that but i really dont give a shit#i dont#and like im a hard leftist. but i just do not care. so long as they arent a massive right winger or a creep im fine#*i say massive right winger but tbh i kind of mean right winger at all. i just dont give a shit about ccs wanting to remain more centrist#especially online.#anyway#hermitblr#hermitcraft#mcyt#discourse#ben chats shit on the internet#to clarify im not tryna say that its cool to play both sides politically but also i dont think bringing up a 4 year old post -#- to stir up drama is very genuine. looking at the notes i just see a lot of 'wow fuck this guy i hate his content anyway' and its like. ok

Vigilante Pasta AU Timeline
PART FOUR
2008
MARCH: Masky has heard of Sally before, but now he actually meets her. He is calm and gentle in speaking with her and introducing himself and starts to gradually build trust with her. He brings her toys and watches funny videos on his phone with her when he's able, so the kid doesn't have to feel so alone all the time.
APRIL: Jack Robinson has lived a fairly uneventful life so far. He graduated high school with honors, got his four-year college degree, and moved on to medical school. He excelled at his studies and was determined to help as many people as he could. After all these years, he was soon to become one of the world's youngest neurosurgeons, and he'd studied other areas of medicine in addition to his main path in hopes of helping even more people. One night, he leaves to take a late walk through the park to clear his mind and relax. He starts to feel watched, but he sees nobody and hears only the wind through the trees. Out of nowhere he's struck in the head from behind and loses consciousness. Neither he nor anyone living know occurred from that point to when he woke in the woods and found himself to no longer be human. His memories from his human life faded fast, and the harder he tried to remember them the foggier they became. Though he still remembered his medical training, and regardless of his inability to work in a hospital he still intended to use his skill to help others wherever he could.
JUNE: Vinny's door is left unlocked one night; his abuser had been entertaining a visiting sister and forgotten about it in his rush. Dollmaker has full control by now and has repressed Vinny. Dollmaker takes a pink glass eye from a doll head on a shelf and forces it into his own socket while smashing the real eye in the process. He needs something beautiful to see in his face. He leaves the room and finds a screwdriver left on the kitchen counter. He creeps upstairs in the dark to his abuser's bedroom and stabs the man to death with the tool. He hears a gasp behind him and sees the man's sister staring at him in horror. Dollmaker follows her as she backs away toward the hall and sets upon her, ending her life as well. He sees such beauty in her face; this woman becomes the first doll he creates, haphazardly using the tools around him to that end.
SEPTEMBER: Helen is mainly left alone when he's painting and has started to work on paintings of himself as a man, like he wants to be. He hides these paintings behind ones of landscapes when he hears footsteps approaching in the hall to keep them secret from his parents. One day he becomes so focused on finishing the details of one of his hidden self-portraits that he doesn't hear his mother approaching. When she sees the painting, she angrily slaps him across the face and her sharp acrylic nails cut his cheek. While she begins fussing over the scar it might leave and begins looking for a first aid kit, Helen stares at the drops of his blood that landed on the painting. The two most noticeable ones are over his eyes, and while they aren't quite even enough for his tastes, he still finds himself wiping more blood from the cut in his face and using it to paint a smile over the portrait's mouth. His mother returns to patch up the injury and he says nothing as she takes a moment to destroy his artwork first.
OCTOBER: Jane succeeds in finding Jeff and begins to attack him. He doesn't remember who she is, partially because of her changed appearance and partially because he tried to block out his memories of that period of his life. Once she reminds him and angrily explains why she's there to kill him, Jeff lets go of his knife and falls to his knees. He apologizes to Jane for what he did, sincerely, and tells her that if she wants to tear him apart, he understands and he won't stop her. They have a brief conversation during which Jane remembers how insane Jeff looked that night, and some part of her sees that Jeff as a different person than the one in front of her. She hesitantly forgives him, but still wants nothing to with him. She leaves and decides to devote her life to vigilante work as well.
NOVEMBER: Helen decides to cut his hair short for the second time in his life in the middle of the night while his parents sleep. He had soaked his light pink painter uniform in blue dye from his art station the night before, and now changed into the dyed navy fabric. He put on a blank white mask that he hadn't used in a former project and picked the lock on his door. He approached his parents' room and stabbed them both to death where they slept. The last thing his mother saw was him using a single finger to draw a smile in her blood on the lower half of his mask. He left that night with a few paintbrushes and other supplies after leaving a bloody mural of himself – his true, male self, on their bedroom wall.
DECEMBER: Jane meets Kate in the woods on accident and takes an instant dislike to her crass and callous attitude. The two argue, but don't fight because they are technically on the same side, and it would be a pain to build bad blood through violence like that. However, they each decide after their first meeting that they dislike each other and do not want to interact any more than they have to.
2009
MARCH: Dina manages to escape her room one evening, with the long sleeves and unfastened straps of the straight jacket trailing behind her in the hall; she's heard her mother is in the hospital recovering from an illness and assumes her father is asleep. She creeps into the study and takes the sword down, marveling at how smooth and lightweight it is in her grip. She plans to leave this place tonight and never return. As she walks toward the side door of the house, she hears a woman's laughter. She peeks into the den to see her father, the supposedly honorable judge, is cheating on her mother while she's sick. Enraged by the hypocrisy, Dina decapitates them both before escaping into the night.
MAY: Jonathan has been alone and depressed for so long. He sees no reason to keep going. He's become numb to the world and decides to surrender himself to the void. He closes his eyes on a noose, and never opens them again. His spirit, however, does not sleep. His wandering soul with glowing eyes of gold can feel every emotion the living around him feel, and for the first time in years he is no longer numb.
SEPTEMBER: Eyeless Jack finds an abandoned medical complex and takes up residence in building 1609. After clearing it out and gathering supplies there, he declares it his MedLab and offers medical assistance to anyone who wanders in needing it. The first to show up are Jane and Clockwork; Clockwork had sustained an injury to her side and met Jane shortly after, and Jane had helped her get to the only medic they were aware of. Clockwork was bedridden there for a while, and she, Jack, and Jane all started getting to know each other well.
DECEMBER: Kagekao has been performing his pranks before his kills, and this catches the interest of Candy Pop. Pop first introduces Kagekao to Cane, then eventually Laughing Jack. Before long, Kagekao has a standing invite to the Carnival and the Candy Circus and is a regular fixture amongst the Carny Pastas.
2010
FEBRUARY: Dina has been travelling and murdering almost indiscriminately. After killing a drug addict in a derelict multi-floor building, the cracked floor gives way and drops her two stories to the ground level. She falls unconscious and wakes up in a bed with her wounds bandaged. She finds her sword on a nightstand next to the bed and struggles painfully to stand and grab it. She leaves the unfamiliar bedroom and finds that she's in an abandoned church that's been stripped of its religious artifacts and décor. She enters the nave and holds on to a pew to steady herself. On the pulpit she sees a man with short hair in a blue uniform. His back is to her as he paints on the canvas in front of him, though the art is blocked from her view by his head. There are finished paintings posted on easels all around him, many depicting beautiful landscapes. She approaches curiously, and the man is alerted to her presence when she stubs her toe on the edge of a pew and swears. He puts down his brush and turns to look at her, and she sees that he's painting a picture of her. She would've called him a creep and chewed him out over it if it weren't for the way he'd painted her eyes. The portrait version of her didn't have pools of ink in her sockets, but small sections of night sky with sparkling stars swirling in their depths like heavenly glitter. Nobody had ever seen beauty in her eyes before. The artist's name was Helen, and he spoke with a calm, soft voice and stoic face. She found his presence acceptable, and they got to talking. Eventually they decided to travel together.
AUGUST: Jeff stumbles across his brother, Liu, after hearing rumors that he is alive and in the vigilante game. He tries to talk to his brother only to be confronted with Liu's split personality, Sully, who despises and attempts to kill him. Jeff cannot die, and Sully is enraged by this. Liu struggles for control to prevent Sully from killing Jeff, and the two part ways to event more bloodshed.
2011
JUNE: Helen meets Jonathan (now going by 'Puppeteer') on his travels, and they have a lot of common ground and get along well. Eventually Helen introduces the Puppeteer and Dina, and while Dina is guarded and suspicious at first they eventually start to get along decently as well.
NOVEMBER: Jason and the Puppeteer cross paths and start to get to know each other. Their first meeting is brief as they are both busy with other things at the time, but other visits follow and their personalities mesh well together.
2012
JANUARY: Helen has found a little house in the woods that's well-isolated and has been abandoned for quite some time. He's spent months secretly fixing it up with assistance from the Puppeteer, and now, while snow gently drifts down from the sky he leads Dina to it. It's their home now, he tells her, and she falls in love with it immediately as its roof protects the delicate white flakes of ice from becoming tainted by the ground. They go inside, and Helen has already done a wonderful job at making it feel like a home. She kisses him then, which takes them both by surprise; but neither dislike or regret it.
MARCH: Lazari is still imprisoned in the cult's little dungeon. She doesn't know why she was put there or what she did wrong to make her mother stop loving her. She's been starved and had her back whipped many times. Her mother came to see her for the first time in months, and Lazari asked her with tear-filled eyes why she didn't want her anymore. Seemingly recovering her humanity for a moment after hearing the pain in her child's voice, her mother looked away unable to meet her gaze. She pulled the key from its hook on the wall and unlocked the chains around Lazari's wrists, then dragged her off into the dark night. They travelled to a well-kept garden with many tall trees and decorative stones, and it was there that Lazari's mother made a noose and hung herself in front of her young daughter. Lazari had little strength and didn't know what to do, and so sat next to the tree where her mother's corpse swung and cried. When the sun came up the next day, an old priest wandering through the graveyard found her there and took her in. His little cottage wasn't the most glamorous space, but it was warm and cozy and had plenty of snacks that Father Daniel gladly shared with the poor girl. When he gave her leftover beef from the night before, he saw the red tinge in her eyes; and her reflection and shadow both had horns. Unlike the cult that had hurt her so, Father Daniel didn't punish her for what she was born as, instead opting to nurture her goodness and human side. He called the authorities to remove her mother's corpse from the tree, but he did not mention child for fear of what may happen to her.
AUGUST: Jeff goes after some targets on his list only to find that someone else took them out first. He encounters the responsible party quickly - a wounded Nathan - and brings him to Jack's MedLab. Nathan has trouble trusting others, even other vigilantes, and is civil but distant while he waits for himself to be healed enough to leave.
2013
APRIL: A man concealed by a tattered black cloak walks along the main street of a small village. He watches a couple of children gather a box from an alleyway and excitedly bring it to their parents; the kids beg them to keep the small litter of whining puppies within the cardboard container. 'The puppies will die alone out here, and dogs are so wonderful and loyal,' they argue. The parents finally agree, and the family moves to get in their car. As they drive off, Hobo Heart hears a small noise from the alley. He steps forward to look, and a small pup waddles right into him. This one was left behind, forgotten. It whines and licks his ankle. Dogs are loyal. He picks up the little thing and holds it inside his cloak to warm it as he moves on.
MAY: The Puppeteer has been spending the day in Jason's company, but he needs to stop by Helen and Dina's home to pick up something from Helen. He lets Jason tag along with what should have been a quick visit, but Jason and Dina get into a brawl and develop strong animosity toward each other. Jason is banned from the couple's home and the Puppeteer is later forgiven so long as he follows that rule.
JUNE: Toby is abducted by the SCP Foundation and brought into their labs. He is freed by the other proxies, but not before Foundation researchers traumatize him so badly he refuses to speak for months after his liberation.
SEPTEMBER: Lazari has returned to full health thanks to Father Daniel's kindness. She has helped him by consuming malicious entities that raised Cain for his congregation and they have become close. However, Lazari has been feeling a strong calling to travel and wander. It takes some convincing, but eventually Father Daniel accepts that she can now take care of herself as her strength has returned. He bids her farewell on her travels and is sure to inform her she's welcome to stop in any time.
2015
JANUARY: Hobo Heart meets Eyeless Jack after hearing about the MedLab. He starts coming to Jack to have his supply of needles and catgut replenished when he's running low, though his cold demeanor offends the medic. Jack still supplies him with what he needs, but their meetings are tense and silent.
2016
AUGUST: Offenderman is hunted down and terminated by the other Slenders to prevent him from harming anyone else. All other vigilantes are happy to hear the news of his demise.
2019
OCTOBER: Zalgo and Lazari finally meet on Hallowe'en night with a little assistance from the Slenderman. Also on this night, Masky leads Sally's parents to her makeshift grave, out of which he'd dug her remains. Her parents get to say goodbye and give her a proper burial. Sally's spirit sticks around after but is no longer bound to that area of the woods. She's glad to be able to travel like everyone else now.

im sorry that people are being dicks. you really are making a difference. maybe i just dont follow that many people, but you post more abt palestine than anyone ive seen and im so glad that i follow you because i think youre awesome for it. !!free palestine!!
thank u babe <3 <3 it’s not even ppl. its just one unhinged chronically online person whose opinion means nothing to me. i rest easy knowing people like that will never be pleased no matter what u do, so i just do what i want anyway & laugh whenever something like that gets sent to me. its entertaining fodder like 90% of the time. also the irony in people like that hate watching your blog is literally that they will neverrr understand that hating on someone still gives that person power regardless of how much u hate them. hate is not the opposite of love. the opposite of love is indifference. but they can’t even manage that can they

You know, I am such a dinosaur I didn't realise that the eyeless jack story kinda changed. I always thought of him as some dude eating your kidneys and your siblings at night. Not a furry demi-god supernatural being who is also a surgeon in his spare time.

Which other characters do you feel have been most misrepresented or poorly localised apart from Rock/Romeo?
most of the characters would be localized differently if DS/cute had been localized by xseed hmmm
(a lot of bachelorette heart events exclusive to the boy version are probably worse, given that the boy version can get downright incomprehensible more often than the girl version, but i’m not going through the hell of restarting the english version of DS for yet another time given that it’s Save File Corruption Speedrunner)
i need to preface this by saying i’m only trying to call this an Interesting and Unfortunate Change but….
one big example that comes to mind is Ain / Kai and his “too touchy-feely?” first heart event….. is not about that in japanese and since it’s not quite equivalent it gets a real sense of unintentional Bad in english
in the japanese version of the event, Ain brings up the fact that he just calls you your name, without the honorific -san. omitting that definitely makes him come off as overfamiliar (whole ass trope about new couples getting flustered over being called their first name with no honorific for the first time), but Ain is Not From Here and overall speaks in the casual, friendly way he’s used to.
he asks you if you’re uncomfortable with him using your name like that
obviously the correct choice is to say you don’t mind at all and everything is fine. BUT if you tell him it’s too much…. he apologizes and tries saying your name with -san… but he realizes he just can’t do it, because “after all, aya is just aya (or whatever your name is). which is kinda weird, but it would require all his normal dialogue lines to be rewritten, so i guess we need to return to the status quo…whatever…
obviously this presents a conundrum in the english version, since honorific speech isn’t used in english the same way it is in japanese. so the event has to be about something slightly different…
the solution natume came up with was to have it be about him patting you on the back
you can probably already see the problem with this but let’s look at it anyway
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i mean that’s kinda… odd, but hey, on the bright side, there’s no need for them to return to the status quo so surely he’ll stop if you ask him to..?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
yea okay man haha…i don’t think i will…….
