#but any other kids they adopt

[duskbats]

eden had a very important conversation with heidi about the possibility of being turned when she’s older.

transcript below.

eden: heidi, you know how your mum and i are... different?

heidi: uhm...

eden: how we sleep during the day, and don’t eat dinner with you?

heidi: oh! because you’re vampires?

eden: ...yeah. that doesn’t scare you, does it?

heidi: nope! it makes you two special.

eden: *laughs* you’re a good kid.

eden: but you know when you’re old enough, you can be like us too.

heidi: i can?

eden: but only if you want to! it’s a big decision.

eden: make sure you really think about it, and you can tell us when you’re older.

heidi: *giggles* okay!

#ok so this was the reason why i had eden and dima adopt #this plus i couldn't imagine either of them pregnant #but i really wanted to play with the idea of like #adopted by vampires but the child is given a choice when they're older #i think with the heir they'll be a vamp #but any other kids they adopt #i'll randomly generate the decision somehow? #but yea i think it's cute #ts4 #the sims 4 #simblr #ts4 gameplay #ts4 legacy #*v legacy: g1 #*eden james #*heidi shariq #also realising how much i overuse ellipses i'd be a terrible writer #also i don't even know if heidi will be the heir i'm gonna play around w some mods for adoption

So sorta a prompt/sorta a brain worm that got stuck in my head.

What if.... When Jason died originally he came back as a ghost and he and Danny met. Jason helped him fight ghosts and taught him some tricks of the trade. He offhandedly told Danny that if he ever needed help to go to Gotham/Blüdhaven (depends if you want to spin Jason still feeling kind towards Bruce or him being more in Dick's corner). Jason vanishes when he's resurrected and Danny doesn't hear from him for years.

Well something happens. (Either everyone he loves dies, and he runs to the GZ or away to prevent himself from turning into Dark Danny, or his parents find out his secret and react Badly. Or maybe they react well but the GIW takes them out)

Danny runs to the only place he thinks can offer sanctuary, Gotham/Blüdhaven. Running off the words of a friend he hasn't seen in a long time.

He arrives and is probably exhausted, stumbling around when he feels a familiar energy. He follows it, only to nearly collapse at Jason's feet as Red Hood. (This is probably post Outlaws when Jason has a more peacefulish relationship with the Bats) and looks up.

"Jason?"

"Danny?!"

#jason probably forgot his time while dead #which is why he didnt look for Danny #or maybe Amity Park is like the bermuda triangle and no one can find it so Jason thought he hallucinated it all #this can run into any ship you prefer #if I wrote it I might run a Brain Dead ship but we all know I also love Dead on Main #Jason is panicking the Bats are panicking because this strange meta knows Jasons Secret Identity #Jason is Panicking because oh shit it wasnt a dream and oh fuck something bad mustve happened was it Dannys parents? the GIW? VLAD?! #and hes just spitting out these words like ectoplasm and cores and ghoat zone and the Bats understand None of it #and Jason hisses like a feral mama cat anytime one of the other bats tries to touch a passed out Danny #thats his ghost kid no touchies Bruce! you dont get to adopt this one Jason called dibs! #can be romantic or platonic dibs #danny phantom #dp x dc #dc x dp #dp x dc crossover #dpxdc #danny phantom au #danny phantom crossover #dc×dp prompt #dp x dc prompt

Most dpxdc fics say that in the alternate timeline where Danny becomes Dan, Dan is ridiculously overpowered killed the entire JL. The problem is that idea only works if you ignore Batman entirely. Batman has a contingency plan for everyone. You could say that Dan caught him off gaurd, but tbh that’s kinda boring.

The only universes where someone managed to kill Batman, he was either killed by another Batman or by one of his children. Other Batman’s managed to kill him bc it’s a Batman v Batman battle and they’re evenly matched. For the other universes? Batman wasn’t fighting back all the ways he could.

Because here’s the thing about Batman: he has contingency plans upon contingency plans for Superman, for his rogues, for the entire JL. Superman goes evil in about 50% of the universes he’s in, and even with his friends he isn’t willing to let sentiment get in the way of saving the world from a potential threat.

But for his family? Batman doesn’t make contingency plans for his family. Even when he arguably should, even in universes where it leads to his death, Batman never makes a single contingency plan for any of his children.

What I’m saying is this, the only universe where Dan could successfully kill Batman is a universe where Dan is Bruce’s son.

And that, my friends, is a far more interesting story to tell.

#danny phantom #batman #dp x dc #dan phantom #Batman only lets himself be compromised when it comes to his kids #otherwise he’d have contingency plans for all of them because the birds and bats are DANGEROUS #any of them could probably take over the world if they set their mind to it #the only reason Batman got merked in DC vs Vampires is bc Dick was the one in charge #otherwise he 100% would have won #I mean he’s BATMAN #but seriously #imagine a world where Bruce takes in Danny right after the Nasty Burger incident #and then Danny becomes Dan afterwards #or a world where Bruce takes in Dan after he becomes Dan but before the whole taking over the world thing #a ghost of a child that literally killed the other half of himself? that’s the exact kind of traumatized teenager #that would be adoption bait for Bruce #you could even tell a story where Danny runs away to another universe to prevent himself from becoming Dan #and gets adopted by Bruce and gets a family and starts to heal #and then when he thinks the coast is finally clear and once he’s actually happy #his ghost and human halves get forcibly separated somehow #the POTENTIAL

And a bonus drawing too:

#dcxdp #dpxdc #my art #got more notes on that first comic than i have on any other thing ive ever posted combined #didn’t expect that #but damn was it encouraging #so now theres more #but also i hate drawing backgrounds.... #fuck backgrounds #im a character artist #anyway i might do more of this #also i got attached to the DC side through fanfic so i dunno what half these people are supposed to look like and google didnt help #but i tried #only the officially adopted kids (+danny) cause there's a limit to how many people I can draw at once without going insane

Hey uhm hot take that shouldn’t be hot:

Traumatizing yourself does not count as awareness for a cause.

Yes, don’t ignore it, but don’t doomscroll and purposely go out of your way to look at literal massacred children or self immolation or other carnage and what-have-you, then do nothing about it except reshare it and gush about how it gave you panic attacks and nightmares for the next week.

You’re not helping. You’re turning a fucking genocide into shock content to fuel your white savior complex.

It could’ve happened to YOU had you been born in the wrong place at the wrong time, too.

Have some respect.

#this could count for pretty much any other literal disaster going on too #it gives the same performative activism as like… saying you wanna adopt every black kid you see when you go on your white girl safari #to turn a disaster and a literal ethnic clensing into yet another way to sensationalize and dehumanize brown people #why am I not surprised #gaza #the parker has spoken #from the river to the sea palestine will be free #gaza genocide #free gaza #free palestine #palestine #🇵🇸 #i stand with palestine #I stand with Palestine 🇵🇸 #aaron bushnell #genocide #white saviorism #white savior complex #keep eyes on sudan #free sudan #syria #free syria #uyghurs

Interesting commentary about how most people will identify with victims/victimhood while feeling discomfort when others identify with perpetrators, especially given the fact we live in societies (at least the one I’m in and the one that book was written in) that habitually materially revile victims on every level while championing and supporting perpetrators of certain violence.

#human reads time limited hunt #this convo comes up cause jiang lian is explaining to shi shanyan #how he wishes yan junxun would get at least one case wrong #because his ability to empathize with serial killers to this degree #unsettles ‘normal folks’ #but at the same time #is anyone *really* indentifying with the victims? #because the only reason why the crimes in this book happened #are because neither people nor institutions helped ANY actual victims #in fact they were using actual victims’ stories for prestige and ego boosts #even the victim-turned-serial-killer is using revenge killing *other* people’s assaulters #to make herself feel better #and because of that she ends up fucking up #and murdering an innocent man! #anyways reminds me of that study on kids #that said that showing bullying in kids shows #actually doesn’t prevent bullying #because bullies identify with the victims in shows #while adopting the fictional bullies’ tactics irl #so no lessons were learned #because nobody identified themselves as having the capacity to harm #or at least to harm the ‘undeserving’ #weaponization of victimhood and the aesthetics of innocence and docileness #or something like that #time limited hunt

[anxiously-sidequesting]

Not to keep beating dead horses like I so much love to do but I am still completely Flabbergasted and Astonished at how you (Merle Ambrose) could discover the most terrifying fact that a child that is essentially under your care has been indoctrinated into a cult (which, by the way, a process that has taken over the course of years) ((by an agent that has been stationed in a direct position to make it easier to access and manipulate children, that has easily escaped your notice for such a long time)) that worships a nihilistic entity whose ultimate goal is the absolute and total destruction of Everything and Everyone around you, and your one, single, simple-sentenced response to that is to say "Oh, that's a shame. He (Duncan) always was pretty terrible. Hope he gets better someday." And then to move on from those extremely worrying and dangerous bundle of issues permanently without taking any sort of action to protect the vulnerable and make sure nothing like this ever happens again

#i love ambrose as a character but the things he does makes me clench my fists so hard blood circulation gets cut off #the absolute.... lack of care ambrose has for certain things literally render me speechless #and like okay in his uh. in his uh “defense”. there was like. other stuff going on at the time. i get that #like the end of the world for the 7th time yeah there were other things on ambrose's plate #but i dont know how many different ways to put “your children are being manipulated and kidnapped into a cult that means them harm under- #-your nose and it can absolutely happen again“ and make that stick #you... i #that is a horrifying fact to learn and the response is dismissive at BEST #like im not saying ambrose should adopt all 800 children that go to his school or whatever #but like... DO SOMETHING #you have COMPLETE AND UTTER INFLUENCE OVER THE NATIONAL GUARD. DO YOU REMEMBER THAT? USE THAT #send out watch parties! hold stranger danger assemblies! have adults regularly check in with kids! install a curfew! ANY OF THOSE THINGS? #like even if ambrose couldnt single-handedly stop a powerful cult he could at least make an effort.... AN EFFORT #ONE ATTEMPT. TO MAKE SURE ****HIS**** SCHOOL AND STUDENTS ARE SAFE........ #and the fact that he says something along the lines of “well duncan was always fucked up” ☹️☹️☹️☹️ #this shouldt surprise me fir the man who for 1. some reason refuses to fix the death school #2. does not care about dworgyn or mortis in the least #3. keeps trying to pressure necromancers to change schools #4. kidnapped US from earth and used us. #it really shouldnt but........ but #im gonna say it and idc (/lh) if its unpopular. ambrose should not be in power #he is incompetent at best. he is harmful at worst. #he does NOTHING 99.9% of the time and the one Tuesday where he takes action it makes something worse. he should not be in power #this post is /lh but idk. im a little angry #NOT SERIOUSLY ANGRY BUT CMON MAN. CMON BRO #if the game utilized ambrose's potential more and pointed out how useless/paranoid/rash he can be i would ascend to heaven #i would like literally one person (who isnt a villain) in the game to look at ambrose and say “wow hes kinda fucked up” #THATS THE BARE MINIMUM BUT I WILL ACCEPT THAT I WILL. #kind of unrelated but im kinda mad that the only person to correctly point out how weird ambrose is is morganthe #the murderous tyrant. the person we're not supposed to listen to. because she's evil. she couldnt POSSIBLY be right about Good Guy Ambrose!

the fandom during balance: can this player character PLEASE adopt this child

griffin during steeplechase: i'm going to have my player character adopt this random child

#eliot posts #taz #the adventure zone #taz steeplechase #taz balance #taz spoilers #it's so funny though it's not even a serious emotional scene or anything he just Has A Kid now #i think the poppycule should collectively adopt all of new kidadelphia actually #these weird kids deserve three weird crime dads it would be funny #it's great how many things happen in steeplechase that would be taken seriously if it were in any other campaign #but since it's steeplechase it's mostly not it's just 41 episodes of pure here there be gerblins energy #if any other trio flirted as much as these three have there would be MOUNTAINS of tender shipfic #but instead it's mostly just shitposts about old man yaoi

I love that Phoenix is so father figure coded in the main trilogy with Pearl. Like the official art where she's napping on his thigh or being held up by him to put up Christmas tree ornaments, and the whole vibe of him bringing her along to crime scenes, and in the stage play where she gets scared and freezes in place so he just picks her up like a stack of firewood. Even from the second game when he's only like 25 he's been irrefutably dad-shaped. It should've been the least surprising thing to happen when AJ first came out that Phoenix had become a dad. That's been an important part of his personality, he probably was born to be a girldad more than an attorney.

anyway it's also really funny to think about him lowkey adopting the half-sister of the woman who tried to kill him and her twin sister who tricked him into thinking that she was his girlfriend.

#I am actually so upset that there isn't more Pearl & Phoenix content #shes like his first kid #au where phoenix gets partial guardianship bc Maya had only just turned 18 and having to take care of an 8yo at that age sounds like hell #i can totally see him just carrying her around bc she's so tiny and he likes flaunting how strong he is #i can kinda get on the side of feenris if that means he gets custody of pearls #i mean phoenix is practically a fey at this point #i hc him as having no family or being cut off from them so Maya trying to find any way to make him her brother is really funny to me #would she channel her mom to sign adoption forms for a grown man? #i mean at the end of aa3 he did the spiritual ceremony thing with Maya and pearls which was something he really didn't have to do #the found family is just so strong in this guy #Mia saw him sobbing in the courtroom with no other family and decided that he was free real estate #needed to ramble again hii #phoenix wright #ace attorney #pearl fey

On my hands and knees begging the English translators to find a better word for “sworn siblings” other than just “siblings.” I get that sworn siblings aren’t a concept in western media (or at least not in the same way. I know we have found families), I get that they can’t just say these characters are dating because censorship laws, but like… there’s gotta be a better word for this.

#honkai impact #genshin impact #bronseele #cynonari #Mihoyo they already kissed each other on the mouth- please stop calling Bronya and Seele siblings #we all know Cyno and Tighnari are married and Collei is their kid- don’t pretend they’re all just siblings now #i was told there was also an example in hoyo’s dating sim game but I haven’t actually played that so no comment #I feel like the easiest way of fixing this problem would be to just use the actual chinese word #there’s just some things that can’t be directly translated #or they could just describe the relationship without putting any label on it #but I feel like this would help make a bigger distinction between romantic sworn siblings and actual adopted siblings #and maybe put an end to the Kaeluc debate #reminder that this is all directed at the English translation and not the main writing team

[oifaaa]

speaking my truth….

people who write jason with pit madness actually just want stephanie brown

I mean for the most part fanon Jason really is just Stephanie Brown with the main differences being the crime lord thing and Jason being Bruce's adopted son but I think it would be easier to just make an au where stephs a crime boss rather then completely destroy Jason's whole ass character by giving him pit madness

#ask #anon #one of the reason i really hate the jason had shit parents retcon #is bc steph literally already had those parents #she literally had the villain evil dad and drug addict neglectful mum #like when i talked about jasons parents retcon before #People where quick to say well its an interesting premise to explore #which chill do it with steph then #shes got everything you want #she even almost killed her dad but batman if it weren't for batman being there #and i know its slightly different bc shes not bruces adoptive child #but she was still a kid batman used and got killed #id say even more then any other robin #and she took so much crap from bruce #just bc she reminded him of jason #theres so much emotions there

[hella1975]

your sokka is SO sokka and i say this as someone who holds him so dear ur writing of him is amazing. tbh im sooo fussy with his portrayal but its pretty nailed. like so many fics (esp zukka and zuko centric and ESPECIALLY ones where hakoda like adopts zuko) he's constantly pushed to the side in favour of zukos issues and zukos problems when in reality sokka is very hurt himself and has suffered a lot. man i GET taob sokka i really do bc people seem to think he was a lil mean but nobody seems to realise when you're in sokkas position it would've read like everyone was against you. all the swt men, including his dad who snapped at him, and even katara and aang and suki tell him to give zuko a chance and the fact that they were trusting someone who had hurt all of them so much- because yes WE know zuko wouldn't have killed them, but the gaang didn't. not when they were being chased and terrorised, and when sokka had his trust betrayed in the prison, he had absolutely every right to hate zuko, esp when it felt like everyone who he thought would understand his feelings, including his own dad who had been hiding his relationship with zuko from him, seems against him. his conversation with hakoda was probably my favourite scene in taob just bc he was allowed to feel like that without being treated by the narrative as someone just being mean to poor little zuko. he gets to be a sourpuss and angry and jealous at zuko for feeling like hed been replaced by his own dad. all of the water tribe men get this treatment like they're not written as bad people for being wary or disliking zuko initially (even chena despite being enemy no.1 at the start). his convo with hakoda was so important bc it stressed the detail that yes zuko has suffered and deserves to be cared for but SOKKA is his son, his actual child who is so hard on himself for things out of his control and who has hurt so much and deserves just as much as zuko does. sokka is just a baby my boy. he's not the main character but he's just as complex and intricate as zuko, not just in taob but also for the times we have seen him in tams there's been keen detail to his emotion and how he's feeling pointed out

me rn

#BESTIEEEEEEEEE YOU GET IT <333 #like ik the atla fandom including unfortunately some taob locals are generally AWFUL with sokka when zuko is involved #but it really was only a handful of taob readers esp in the grand scheme and i do want to clarify that #but now we're on the same page. OH MY GOD WHEN I SAY I WANTED TO PHYSICALLY FIGHT SOME PEOPLE #JUST THE SHAMELESS FAVOURITISM??? THE EXPECTATION THAT I TREAT A CHARACTER AS SOMETHING NOT-HUMAN BC THEY HAPPEN TO BE MEAN TO THEIR FAVE?? #like idc if zuko means a lot to you!! idc if it's sad seeing people be mean to him bc you relate to him so much!! #id be a terrible writer if i treated the other characters as planets in zuko's orbit. THEY dont know they're in his story #and sokka is a fucking sixteen year old. like come on i get mad when people do the same with chena being a dick to zuko #but at least he's a grown man. sokka is a TEENAGER. even if he was being irrational that would be completely fair #bc teenagers ARE FAMOUSLOY IRRATIONAL!?!?!?! GO OUTSIDE??!?!?!!? #anyway. im so normal about this topic and hold noooo grudges not any haha #remembering when someone commeted saying me personally as a real life person i was insidious and evil for insinuating #that adopted children arent worth as much as biological children and i should NEVER adopt bc im clearly the Worst #when that is not only an insane thing to say to a stranger on the internet but also. not what happened #hakoda never adopted zuko. that's a joke made in fandom. jokes are when people say untrue things for comedic affect #adoption is an actual official process of willingly and actively bringing a child into your family #NOT taking some teenage symbol of your culture's oppression as a prisoner and unwillingly growing attached #and now he's someone you're fond of and feel protective over as is natural of an adult towards a hurting child #but your actual son feels replaced and it's especially cutting bc of aforementioned symbol of your culture's oppression #and also this specific kid was a dick to him. like as a pretty notable part of his character he was a dick to him #so you reassure him bc that is your actual real life son. yeah? #are we on the same page? are we good? please i dont know how much more i can take- #taob asks #ask
