prompt 02: tim’s birthday present

Tim sat in his empty house at the empty dining table. The table was actually quite large; it had enough seats to sit at least 15 people. But there was just Tim there. 

His parents had promised and sworn up and down that they would come back in time for his birthday. He had everything planned out. He picked out the birthday cake, put on the candles, decorated, ordered his parents' favorite foods, his parents' favorite movie for movie night, popcorn the likes. But that morning, just when Tim was double checking to make sure everything was ready for the most perfect birthday ever, his parents had called to tell him that something really important had come up, and they wouldn’t be able to make it. Tim figured it was better than last year, at least they called this time. 

Tim stared down at the cake, the candles lit. He had heard online that people would make wishes on their birthday cake and blow it out. Tim thought that was a weird thing to do, but it wouldn’t hurt to try. 

What should he wish for? It would have to be something special that he doesn’t already have. Tim thought for a long moment, the candles bleeding into the frosting of the cake. 

A brother. 

Tim closed his eyes and put his hands together like he’s seen the other children to do in the cartoons. And Tim wished for a big brother. When he finally wished hard enough (whatever that meant) he opened his eyes and blew out what was left of the candles. 

Tim waited. What exactly was he supposed to do now? In the cartoons, everyone would celebrate and cheer and the birthday boy would open his presents. There wasn’t anyone to cheer for Tim, or any presents for him to open. 

Suddenly the house shook, and the loud sound of a crash sound came from the backyard. Quickly, Tim did the sensible thing and go check out what the noise was. That's what the characters always did in horror movies. 

In Tim’s backyard, there was what looked like a weird space ship that had crashed into his backyard. There wasn’t any fire or anything, but the spaceship looked pretty wrecked. Getting closer, Tim could vaguely make out that someone was inside the spaceship. Looking around, he saw what looked like maybe the handle. Tim couldn’t really tell. 

When Tim put his hand on it and tried to open it, something poked out mechanically and pricked his finger. He flinched back instinctively, caressing his finger tip.

“Recognized: Danny Fenton. System Override.” A robotic lady spoke. Who is Danny Fenton? As if to answer him, the space ship opened its hatch, and inside was an unconscious black haired teenager. “System Malfunctioning. Please Assis-” The robotic voice spoke again, before getting cut off as if the power had died. 

Suddenly, Tim remembered his wish. A big brother. 

This was Danny Fenton, and he was supposed to be Tim’s big brother

----

When Danny woke up, he found himself in a very soft plush something. Something that definitely wasn’t the Spector Speeder. Alarmed, he sat up quickly to find that he didn’t recognize where he was at all. He also didn’t recognize the weird kid that was staging at him from two feet away. 

“Hi, I’m Tim. Timothy Drake.” The boy introduced himself almost business like. 

“Uh, hi Tim.” Danny responded awkwardly. “You got any idea where I am?” Danny sat up properly, moving the blanket (?) off of him and turned to face the weird and kinda creepy kid. 

“You’re in Drake Manor. Which is where I live.” He answered again. 

“Ok…ay” Danny nodded thoughtfully. “Any idea how I got here?” Truthfully, Danny hadn’t really been expecting an answer, but he still got one. 

“Because I made a birthday wish to have a big brother.” He answered in the same way he had answered the other question, very matter-of-factly. 

“Ok- Wait. What?” Danny asked, doing a double take at Tim. 

“You’re supposed to be my big brother, right?” Tim was starting to look a little hesitant, and as weirded out as Danny felt he couldn’t help but feel bad about the whole situation. 

“Where are your parents, Tim?” 

“There not home, because they had really important things to do for work.” 

Danny nodded. “Do you know when they’ll be back?” 

Tim shook his head. “They were supposed to come back today, because it’s my birthday. But they said they couldn’t make it.” 

Well, shit. Didn’t that sound awfully like Danny’s birthdays before he had given up on his parents showing up. At least he had Jazz. This kid looked like he was alone. 

Not liking the silence, Tim started fidgeting again. “So, are you gonna be my brother, then?” 

And what was Danny supposed to say, No? Besides, if he was really causing problems being in this random universe, then Clockwork would figure it out. 

Bonus: 

Danny sat at Tim’s dinner table, the kid looking at him radiating in excitement, each with a plate of stupid expensive pasta in front of them. “You said your name was Tim, right?” Danny started thoughtfully. Tim nodded, drinking up everything Danny said. “Well, first course of action as you, big brother. I need to give you a nickname.” 

Tim’s eyes sparkled at the prospect. “Like what?”

Danny tapped his chin exaggeratedly, “Hm… Tim, Tim.” Turing the name around while he absentmindedly twirled his fork between his fingers, Danny wondered what he should come up with. Suddenly, in a misplaced strength, Danny’s fork flew out of his hand. 

Before Danny could even say anything, “I’ll get you a new one!” Tim offered quickly. Getting up from his chair, his foot got tangled behind the leg of the chair and Tim fell quietly on the floor with an oof. 

Danny laughed at him. “You okay, Timbers?” He asked, getting up to check on the boy. 

“Yeah, I like Timbers.” Tim said, a bright smile on his face despite the blossoming bruise on his arm.

!!!BREAKING NEWS!!! The nebulous hive mind of internet queer discourse has decided that lesbians who eat toast are no longer valid. Twitter user @/wombyn4wombyn has this to say: “Lesbians who eat toast are not real lesbians. Real lesbians do not like toast. We can’t let these toast loving freaks invade our lesbian spaces!!” IN OTHER NEWS the state of Florida has passed the Shoot Queers on Sight law. “Dykes, fags, it’s all the same to me.” Says a supporter of the new law. “We need to keep these dangerous predators out of our public spaces.”

#/satire /political commentary #yes this is because of those aimsey tweets #the twitter username is hypothetical made up by me and not referring to any specific or real twitter user #any similarities to any real twitter user is unintentional and a coincidence #chicken scratch

We came to a young world. We came to a world of raw, elemental wonder. Of chaos and exultant passion. Of energy vaster, and more potent than anything we beheld in the cosmos... It doesn’t seem like it’s random or chaos. It just seemed like potential.

#byler #finn wolfhard #mike wheeler #where’s that incredible gif of the ‘coincidence? I think NOT!’ moment lmaooooo #honestly I don’t even know if he’s doing it solely for byler reasons—the phrase just has immediate associations #and….Mike and Will were also in those colors 80% of S4 LMAO #like. yes he is probably (absolutely) aware of the Byler ramifications but. he still has plausible deniability with this one HAHAHA #st cast #stranger things

good times

[id: it is a comic of Leo, Mikey and Raph from rottmnt. In the first panel, Leo and Mikey are both hunched over a laptop, which has a small turtle where the apple symbol would go, typing aggressively while screaming intensely. The next panel is of Raph walking into the frame, curious, while Leo and Mikey are in the background, with their backs to the viewer, still screaming. In the next panel we can see the laptop’s screen over Leo and Mikey’s shoulders, and there is a screenshot of a game of “Fireboy and Watergirl” on it. The last panel is a headshot of Raph looking both extremely confused and disturbed with question marks over his head./ end id]

Oh, you have a new name but sometimes dickhead people and your parents call you by your other name? Always an outcast in the society you grew up in? Not fitting in line with what was deemed acceptable in the standard norms? Choosing found family over a blood family that still refuses to see you as you are, who call you too young and delusional to know whats best for yourself? Pink, white and blue color schemes? Are you Sora from Ninjago or are you trans? Answer quickly

#ninjago #dragons rising #ninjago dragons rising #lego ninjago #lego ninjago dragons rising #sora #ninjago sora #trans #trans sora #its not a coincidence i refuse to believe its a coincidence #'my name is SORA' #YES girl go OFF girl that IS YOUR NAME!!!!! #i say this as a trans person myself. this girl as trans coded as gwen from spiderverse you know i have a point #this is a trick question you are both sora AND you are trans PEACE AND LOVE ON PLANET EARTH AMEN

I ended up noticing a rather subtle detail in the last episodes of season 4... The way the Cluster is represented gave me a feeling like the first Godzilla film, there was even a scene of a family suffering in the middle. Was this on purpose or just a coincidence?

Oh, hmmm...

I'm presuming you mean the image where the Cluster is a mess of tangled hands and it looks kind of like a maw trying to swallow Steven whole.

That part, while it wasn't an intentional Godzilla reference, is definitely meant to evoke the image of a monster. I can see what you mean.

As for the family.... I'm not sure it's enough to make the comparison? Recalling loved ones/family before a moment of a plot turnaround is kind of a common trope of anime and heroic journeys in general! I didn't really draw on any specific movie or story for that part. It's just something that happens a lot.

It's cool that you noticed the parallels though!

#chekhov answers #so yes it was a coincidence
