Conversation
Mara Jade: Thanks, Dad.
Talon Karrde:
Mara Jade: Why is everyone staring at me?
Aves: You just called Karrde "dad;" you said "Thanks, Dad."
Mara Jade: What? No, I didn't. I said "thanks, MAN."
Talon Karrde: Do you see me as a father figure, Mara?
Mara Jade: No! If anything, I see you as a bother figure because you're always bothering me!
Dankin: Hey! Show your father some respect!

I understand in a Dan shift, I'm gonna be irritable, but why in the overstimulated sense?? I want to rip and bite if someone even speaks to me wrong- I just wanna get shit done, but people keep interrupting me and I just 😡🤬😡🤬
.... I'm fine it's fine, I'm fine... I'm gonna hang out with my best friend and be able to cool off, just... I'm SO easily angered in this shift- it's not funny at all

hello! hi! here's a nice ask for y'all. what's the most unique raggedy ann/andy doll you've seen? i know there are a lot of different companies like volland and aurora that have made them and lots of outfits and themes over the years, so there's quite a bit of variety!
People have been talking about the Dankin witch Ann a lot, which I think is cute! But I have more fun ones that people haven't seen.
Tumblr media
Not a doll exactly but these 70's ventriloquist dummies for sure. I just need to curse more people with them.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Speaking of Volland, love these 1920's Uncle Clem and Percy the Policeman dolls from back when they actually made other characters from the books!
Tumblr media
Using this as Exposition Raggedy Ann propaganda. Probably the most literally unique Raggedy Ann doll out there, they were manufactured for less than a year in the 30's. Doll appraisal books can't even put a price on them, they are that rare!
Thank you for the lovely ask! Maybe some of the other mods will want to chime in too.
-Mod General D.

The Benefits of Apocalyptic Stories
Tri-Tober Fanfic shorts Prompt 30: Hope Setting: Any / All canons Summary: Vash's favored book genres would surprise people.
Prompt 30: Hope The Benefits of Apocalyptic Stories Vash the Stampede bought books whenever he could find them.  He also availed himself of libraries, signing under an assumed name and had several cards registered all around the world.  He tried to get cheap-printings – flora-pulp paper from Geoplants was rare, shed worm-skin decidedly less so.  He read all kinds of things.  Stories of magic and dragons were favorites, as were tales of pirates sailing water-seas that he could only imagine – fantastical tales that were great escapes.  It would surprise anyone who knew him, though, that one of his favorite genres was dystopian and post-apocalyptic fare.  His friends would all tell you that the “idiot” had an unrealistically utopian mindset and did not know that when he was camping alone in the desert or riding in boredom on a transport that quite often, he was reading about some hardline government with brutal edicts and the people that fought against it, people running from zombies or characters trying to survive in a world obliterated by massive weapons.  He had in his own collection in the duffle-bag, tucked under the Narnia and the Tolkien (the dragons and magic stuff), a copy of “The Red Canyon Games” (supposedly an updated version of something that had existed once on Earth), “Return of the Living Dead in Dankin,” and a series called “Fallout: July,” which was something of a HIGHLY fictionalized version of actual history.  One might wonder why he would take interest in reading stories like these when his own world was built upon a great disaster and seemed to always be on edge of tearing apart at the seams.  He might smile and laugh and tell you that some of these stories were very silly, the type of apocalyptic and dystopian events that were not happening and were unlikely to happen (he’d never seen zombies emerge from any graves, for instance, and he’d seen plenty of graves).  He might also tell you that as hard as the real world is, some of these stories were set in harsher worlds, and so they reminded one to be grateful.  The truth was, they reminded him of hope.  Reading about characters surviving some of the very worst trials – settings both realistic and utterly preposterous – made him feel a little better. Those characters found reasons to keep living. They kept on.  They survived.  He still saw Rem in his dreams sometimes, even after he’d started losing count of the decades.  He would ask her how the people in his reality could get up every day and go on living in such a dry, violent and mean world.  She would tell him that he was becoming an old man before his time and speak of blank tickets with unwritten futures.  And when he’d wake up in the middle of the night, he’d sometimes turn on a light or light a lamp and go back to reading something he was in the middle of – a world where the slate had been wiped clean and the characters trudged through the impossible to reach for an unwritten future.  People everyday were capable of creating the worst nightmares – but also the most beautiful dreams.  He was grateful for the authors of these tales.     Even if he was just reading of characters in some dumb story trying to fight off zombies…  If they could survive that, he could survive another day of roaming the desert and dodging bullets and the fists of modified cyborg train-people.

I love Dankin Matthews. His versatility allows him to be killed by Chucky or to represent Shakespeare. He is an intellectual and also a physical man. The sweetness of his face, so virile, is sublime. Is there a more handsome man on earth?

Fanfic prompt: Daimyo Boba Fett teaching the royal Clan Djarin children how to take on imps while their parents are away for a diplomatic trip to Naboo.
It was Alanne who noticed the guy first, how he stood out a bit oddly from the usual crowd in Boba’s throne room during one of his open court days - keeping himself apart, being a bit twitchy, nervously picking a thread on his jacket.  Grogu reached out with the Force and confirmed he was feeling tense, but also had the mental discipline to keep his thoughts ordered.
“You dweebs,” Brizsa said.  “He has an EC-17 holdout blaster in his jacket.  Standard issue for Imps.  He’s obviously a dankin’ spy.”
“You can’t say dank.  You’re only nine,” Grogu reminded her.
“I can say what I want.  Mom and Dad aren’t here, they’re on Naboo eating honeyed moons.”
“They’re on a diplomatic trip, not eating sweets,” Alanne said.
“I heard Mom tell Dad they should get honeyed moon sweets.  It must be a Naboo sweet,” Brizsa insisted.
“Uncle Boba can find some sweets for us later.  We gotta tell him about the Imp first,” Grogu said.
-
“If Uncle Boba says it’s no big deal, maybe it isn’t,” said Alanne.  “He doesn’t like the Empire either.  Maybe it’s just a former Imp.”
“Grogu said he was hiding something,” Brizsa argued.  “Besides, Mom is right about the only good Imp being a dead Imp.”
“Are you suggesting we kill him ourselves?” Grogu asked dryly.
“We can’t let an Imp just run around.”
“We can’t just execute him without just cause either,” Alanne said.  “Besides, Uncle Boba is the ruler here and we can’t violate the laws of hospitality in his own palace.  If this is an Imp spy, we need proof.”
“I could break his kneecaps and make him talk,” said Brizsa.
“I’m gonna tell Dad you keep watching those bad Coruscanti crime holos,” Alanne sniffed.
“Stop arguing,” Grogu said.  “I can sneak through the ventilation shafts easily and get into his room if you two keep him distracted.”
-
“I can’t believe your plan didn’t work!” Alanne hissed as they ran through the hallways of Boba’s palace.
“Brizsa is the one who ruined it!” Grogu snapped from his perch on her back.
“I did not!  I swiped his secret comm!” Brizsa snapped back, holding it up.  “We have all the evidence we need!”
“Yeah, until he shoots us and takes it back!” Alanne said as they scrambled through an access corridor meant for droids.
“Wait!  I have an idea,” said Brizsa.  “Can you get him to the throne room?”
“The throne room?  We need to get Uncle Boba or Auntie Fennec!” Alanne hissed.
“Just do it!” Brizsa said, splitting down another corridor.
Alanne climbed an access ladder that would take her up several levels quickly, Grogu imbuing her with extra strength and speed with the Force.  But the Imp was an adult and right behind them.  A stun blast went whizzing by their heads.  “Dank farrik!” hissed Alanne.
“I’m telling Dad!”
“You better not!”
They had learned all the hidden passages that they were still small enough to fit through and in a few minutes they’d made it to the throne room.  Alanne ran to the throne and climbed on it.  “Isn’t there a secret emergency signal built in?”
“Auntie Fennec showed me,” insisted Grogu, crawling around the big throne.  “But -”
“Don’t tell me you forgot!”
“She gave me cookies before she showed me!”
The Imp appeared then, blaster drawn.  “Hands up, brats.”
Alanne obeyed, positioning herself in front of Grogu.  “When my father hears of this -”
“Your father?  I hope he’s got enough credits to pay the ransom the Empire’s gonna charge him when I bring you and your ugly green pet in,” snarled the Imp, stepping closer, right over the elaborate grate on the floor.  “For you, anyway.  He’s going to a lab.  Heard those places are pretty nasty.”
“Nastier than a rancor pit?” asked Brizsa, popping up behind the throne and pulling the concealed lever in its arm.
The Imp screamed as he fell down below.  The gears under the throne groaned as it slid forward, Brizsa scrambling to join her siblings in the seat.  “Great idea,” Alanne told her.
“I always have good ideas,” Brizsa said smugly.
The throne stopped and they peered down below.  The Imp was screaming, running in circles as the rancor strolled out, growling softly as he figured out who interrupted his sleep and starting to follow the Imp around, one huge clawed hand reaching out.
“Should we tell him the rancor likes playing chase?” Grogu asked.
“Nah,” said Alanne.  “Let him figure it out.”
-
“Of course I’d already had Fennec disable every weapon he had, and I had monitor droids tracking them the whole time,” Boba said.  “They were perfectly safe and even collected evidence with those pickpocketing skills you didn’t want me to teach them.  And they were so proud when they told me they’d trapped a spy in with the rancor.”
Din sighed.  “You know I had a very different experience with your pet.”
“He was upset that day.  He loves playing.  He had so much fun chasing that Imp.  The guy was crying when Fennec got him out.  He’s already packed up and on his way to Mandalore for trying to harm the royal heirs.”
Cara rolled her eyes.  “We can’t take one vacation.”
“Oh they’re fine.  And they can’t wait to tell you how they caught their very own Imp just like Mom and Dad.  I can tell they were really paying attention when I took them out on that hunt.”
“You sure you don’t need us?” Din asked.
Boba waved his hand.  “Finish your trip.  If they get bored we’ll visit the Sand People and practice diplomacy next.”
“Thanks for watching them, Boba,” Din said before ending the call.
Cara wrapped an arm around his.  “Already catching their first Imp.  They grow up so fast.”
Din kissed her cheek.  “I’m proud of them.  And wishing they still didn’t have to deal with that.”
“That recording of it though?  They were a team.  They fight like loth cats and akk dogs but when it came down to it, they pulled together and acted like a clan,” Cara said with a smile.  “They did good.”
“They did,” Din said, wrapping an arm around her.  “I’m glad they’re safe.”
“Me too.  And that we finished negotiations and can just enjoy a vacation,” Cara said, popping a sugared moon-sweet into his mouth.

I kin Dan from Gossip Girl and the show made him the main antagonist and it used to make me really irrationally upset when I was younger and I thought it was just because in the books I'm apparently not gossip girl but that I realized it was also because I AM Dan and I did not do that. Wild.
