To be honest. DCxDP where the reason Danny meets the bats is Ace the Bat-hound

Like, just think about it for a second. Danny is in Gotham for college, or maybe he just moved out to find a city where having mad scientist parents isn’t actually that unusual.

He can see ghosts.

The ghosts know this.

Now he’s getting harassed left and right by spirits trying to get closure. Fine, whatever, most of them are a one-and-done type deal, and the amount of ghosts trying to get his help steadily decreases.

Except for this one very stubborn dog.

It just keeps showing up and leading him to crime scenes! He doesn’t know how many “anonymous tips” he can call in to the cops before they trace his phone! And this dog, this incredibly good boy, will not stop trying to help the city. He’s never met anyone with such a strong sense of justice, let alone a dog. Can dogs even have a moral compass?

And so Danny just accepts the fact that Ace isn’t going anywhere and becomes his reluctant sidekick/dedicated medium. He leans into the whole thing, dressing up in a mix of traditional magic-user attire and accessories that pay homage to the ghost dog.

He becomes somewhat well known. The psychopomp detective following around the shadowy figure of a German Shepard? That’s unusual! That’s weird! I mean, it’s not the weirdest thing in Gotham, sure, but he’s a new vigilante and he’s got a ghost dog that people can only see when it’s around him. Someone’s gonna notice.

Damian, as Robin, is the first to reach out to him.

Ace doesn’t know Damian but he does know a Robin, and while this isn’t his Robin, he’s still friendlier than usual. Danny’s panicking because oh god the bats are here and also is this kid gonna steal my ghost dog, Damian is absolutely delighted by Ace, and Ace is just happy to see a Robin again.

Damian decides that the psychopomp isn’t a danger to anyone, and there’s no reason to put this encounter into his reports, really, and perhaps Danny can help with some of his cases in the future.

Danny is sweating bullets because Damian basically tells him that he’ll keep him secret as long as he gets to play with Ace. Ace is happy that he’s finally getting some bat affiliated crime-fighting assistance.

And so, Danny is now both Ace AND Damian’s reluctant assistant. At least whenever he’s in trouble, he can always call a middle schooler to help him.

(Is Robin even in school? He’s out patrolling damn near every night, and he stays out late as hell. Does he have a bedtime? He should.)

Eventually it gets to the point where Damian is going over to Danny’s house. When he first sees it, he has a damn bitch you live like this moment, to which Danny responds that not everyone has the money to afford a nice place. Damian counters that he could at least take the time to clean up, and Danny replies that he’s working, going to school, and being a vigilante assistant to a ghost dog, something’s got to give.

Danny nearly has a heart attack when he checks his bank account the next day and sees that someone transferred him 10,000 dollars.

And so they get into a routine. Danny and Damian fight crime with Ace at night, and occasionally Damian stops by during the day to play with Ace and have Danny help with his homework.

(Damian is smart enough to do it on his own, but some of the instructions are written incredibly confusingly, and he would never admit to needing help to his family. Danny is just glad that the kid is in school and cares about his education, blissfully unaware that he’s basically emotionally adopted him.)

Damian is used to being in Danny’s company.

Eventually, when going over a case with the family, Damian absentmindedly remarks that he’ll have to ask Danny about some of the clues that they might be missing. Nightwing asks who he means and Damian makes a face like he just swallowed a lemon.

Cue shitstorm.

Who is “Danny?” Why is Damian willing to ask for help from anyone, much less someone outside of the family? Does he know who Damian is? Has Damian been compromised? What the hell is going on?

Damian now has to explain that Danny is the psychopomp with the ghost dog who he might have met hunted down while on patrol and conveniently not mentioned, but he’s not a bad person, really, and he lets him play with Ace, and he’s been quite helpful on certain cases due to his ability to talk to ghosts.

Bruce insists that the family meet Danny. Damian, hoping that he won’t just skip town the second he hears the news, relents.

Danny is surprisingly eager to meet the bats, considering his earlier fears.

Damian, blissfully unaware of what’s coming, sets a time and place to meet.

Once everyone is there, he gives Bruce the earful of a lifetime.

Robin is in middle school! Danny knows that there’s no way to stop the boy from going on patrol, but you could at least shift his schedule so he gets enough sleep on school nights! Does the Bat even know where he is half the time?! (No) And why isn’t he comfortable asking his family for help with both cases and homework? Did they ever even notice how much time he was spending at Danny’s house? If Danny was a bad person, he could have seriously hurt the poor boy! Shame on you!

Nightwing is mortified that Damian didn’t trust him enough to tell him about any of this. Red Hood is laughing his ass off, because yeah Danny is making good points but he’s also chewing out the literal Batman. Tim is recording the whole thing. Steph is delighted by the absolute gall of this Danger Twink™️, and already planning to add him to several groupchats. Damian is more embarrassed than he’s ever been in his entire life.

You, he points to Nightwing, did your academic life feel supported when you were a Robin? Nightwing is too stunned to speak. Red Hood, eternal shit-stirrer, says that oh, we all prioritized patrol over our education, that’s just how it is. Red Robin actually dropped out of high school to avoid distractions, did you know that?

Danny honest-to-god shrieks at this.

He finishes his angry rant and leaves, everyone too stunned to stop him.

And as it turns out, Tim wasn’t the only person recording the whole thing.

The entire internet is blowing up with Psychopomp The Danger Twink™️’s rant. People are taking sides. Things are getting messy. Red Hood literally admitting on-camera to previously being a Robin is somehow not the main focus here.

Eventually someone connects some dots from the video, as well as stories circling the internet about the psychopomp. A ghost dog named Ace, who is the literal only reason that the psychopomp is fighting crime at all, which seems incredibly fond of Nightwing and Robin.

A crime-fighting dog who wants constant attention from both the current and original Robin.

Oh my god, Ace the Bat-hound died and became a crime-fighting ghost.

And, somehow, that’s still not the strangest thing going on in Gotham.

#dcxdp #dc x dp #dp x dc #dpxdc #dp x dc crossover #dc x dp prompt #literally Ace is too good a boy to pass on #this veered wildly into ‘Danny emotionally adopts Damian’ but really it’s what he deserves #sometimes family is an ex child assassin an undead college student and a ghost dog #also Danny gives literally no shits during investigations because he Cannot Die #he will just casually take 40 bullets to the chest like it’s nothing #if he encounters a rogue he will beat the everloving hell out of them and then give them Jazz’s card #(she’s doing confidential therapy for vigilantes and rogues)#except for the ones who are too far gone. like the joker #he’s a bitch and Danny hates him #if given the opportunity Danny would gladly kill him but Clockwork says he’s not allowed to do that #so he settles with beating the hell out of him and then covering all his stuff in glue #and of course alerting the authorities

“Time isn't like pearls, Katya. You can't buy more."

“No one can tell me what I can and can't buy."

I'm loving that Goncharov is finally getting the attention it deserves but I can't believe no one's brought up the Art Deco character posters made for the limited California release....I've only been able to find the Katya one so far but the others have got to be out there somewhere!

#im free from college for thanksgiving break so i figured id post a gonch #katya did nothing wrong except for all the murders #goncharov #unreality #my art #secretmellowart

funniest part of dan and phil releasing any new content is you suddenly get a wave of posts from people you’ve never seen talk about them before written with the energy of someone who’s been posting about them nonstop for years. it’s like seeing sleeper agents awaken it’s beautiful

#icarus speaks #except the sleeper agents are depressed college students

The way I completely lose all interest in Lawlight as a ship if Light isn't Kira. And frankly, I feel like L would agree with me on this one. I don't think he'd gaf abt Light in the slightest if Light wasn't Mr. Serial Killer.

#Lawlight only works if Light is Kira bc otherwise light is just some rly smart pretentious teenager.#Like you're telling me L a 24 y/o self made multi-millionaire and the world's greatest detective (top 3 if you count the aliases)-#would care in the slightest abt mr “i got a perfect score on my college entrance exam”. Be fr!!#Idk the ship loses everything that makes it fun and appealing to me if you remove Kira from the mix #Ik ppl do “Light isn't Kira” AUs to make the ship more wholesome but i'd argue it just becomes problematic in a diff way.#L is not only way older but also extremely rich and successful. If Light is innocent but still a suspect- L also has immense power over him #Ig i don't see the point of trying to make Lawlight wholesome. It's still problematic but without the goofy homoerotic enemyship.#Light being Kira not only makes them equals but gives them spice!#However I DO get the appeal of “Light isn't Kira” AUs where Light is still a fake asshole who's performatively nice but hides his real feel #But removing his misogynistic swag/superiority complex/his bitchy internal monologues to make him normal? No...#Imo even if he isn't Kira he'd still be a weirdo. The only Yotsuba!Light is so normal/nice is bc he's trying to prove to everyone-#but most importantly himself- that he's a good person incapable of being Kira. He's trying to be the best version of himself.#Pre-Death Note Light for example is never as outstanding and good as Yotsuba!Light for this reason. Yotsuba!Light is the exception.#Like the Death Note doesn't make you pretentious or hate women that was all Light Yagami.#this is such a random rant sorry guys XD again more power to ppl who enjoy this AU or normalguy!Light but I don't get it personally 😔#death note #light yagami #l lawliet #lawlight #💬 katposts #🤪 sillygoofy

Did you bring anything(like a phone or something) or a reason to be in the factory before you got thrown into the metaphorical deep end of “Toy hell”

Also, what happened after you got pass Huggy

“And Huggy? Honestly, I tried to get back to the front entrance after he took his tumble to The Depths. But whaddaya know, the vent was closed! So, downstairs my grumpy ass went. Then I met Poppy. But I’m lucky enough to still have song downloaded on my Spotify, so we get to play music, albeit sparingly.”

#Drew lore?? More likely than you’d think #yes he is in college #yes he lives in a dorm #yes he told is roommate he was visiting his parents when he in fact was not #there is like #no one to notice if Drew went missing #or at least none who would know where to look #except maybe one #wink wink #phrart #art #Drew poppy playtime #ask the three d’s #the three d’s #poppy playtime fanart #poppy playtime chapter 3 #Drew listens to classical choral music and makes Dogday and Pops listen with him #(sometimes he sings if it’s a song he’s learned! it’s very therapeutic for him)

okay new freddie anon 🤗🤗 hi saints 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

I need to know more about freddie, srsly.

well. he’s easily my favorite out of all of them (board)

i guess it’s important to me that you guys know freddie is a good 8-10 years older than theo… he’s a stock broker in his early 30s who pretty much exclusively goes after scandalously younger trophy boyfriends. to stomp on

#SAVE ME diabolical femme tops. save me exploitative & demanding femme tops #theo is the exception though. that’s the dipshit 20-something college student who is changing his worldview #and who is really not well behaved enough to be a trophy boyfriend anyway. and isn’t remotely presentable. and is always wearing those #grimy band shirts. and who irritates him on purpose. and who never listens. and who is impossible to faze (infuriating!!)#and who is the love of his life or whatever. and who throws him around #foursaints art tag #freddie & theo #saintsocs

h-how do you ever finish any of your work? genuine question because you seem to be productive despite your agreste syndrome and I need to learn your ways. but also how do you ever finish any of your work

unclear. last night i stayed up and finished a report worth 25% of my grade at about 5am, arrived on time for my 9am lecture, and spent about half of it zoned out while thinking about seventeen year old emilie agreste. and i was one of the most active participants in the class discussion

#in some ways it IS the move to go to grad school right out of undergrad #because your body can still sort of operate like a college kid #i’m on about 3ish hours of sleep rn and this morning it felt SO over but now i’ve eaten something and we’re so back #i also don’t really do caffeine. except sometimes i’ll go get one of those panera death lemonades #i might be able to snag a short nap before work #but anyway about seventeen year old emilie. i was thinking abt how she was in that movie solitude and adrien said she was seventeen #WAIT. NO. HE SAID SHE WAS SEVENTEEN IN THAT PHOTO ON HIS DESKTOP NOT IN THE MOVIE #well. okay whatever i’m gonna tell you what i was thinking about anyway #OKAY i’m back i just checked the wikipedia page and then i watched the end of gorizilla. to make sure i’m not lying. because i’m normal.#anyway i was thinking about the solitude film and how it’s super rare and old and obscure and whatever. and how apparently #emilie wrote it herself and andre produced it #and i’m thinking about how gabe was discovered by audrey and that’s how he got his start in the fashion industry #so now i’m like?? did gabe and emilie first meet on the set of solitude? because gabe was designing costumes or whatever?#and that’s how audrey found him? have people already thought about this??#also i just checked and it doesn’t say emilie’s last name in the credits and also it’s ‘graham films’ with the twin rings logo m #so i’m assuming she’s still emilie graham de vanily at that point #anyway it comes back to seventeen year old emilie because i started imagining seventeen year old runaway emilie having her new life in pari #after escaping her british nobility life #and the first thing she does is write and star in an original movie. of course.#and she meets this repressed bisexual punk upstart costume designer who is so the opposite of everyone she’s ever known #and he’s immediately so unhealthily obsessed with her. which she appreciates.#and then they proceed to have the most toxic doomed evil relationship of all time #also she gets cheated because once gabe gets money he represses himself SO hard that he is now exactly like all the people emilie grew up w #but at least he’s still obsessed with her #this is what i was thinking about during class today. i don’t know how i get anything done either.#ml #anna rambles #asks

More charcoal artist!dabi x reader, smoking, mentions of nude drawings

Dabi waits for you by that tree, the one he saw you sitting under all those months ago. A cigarette hangs from his fingers, his loose anatomy sketches from class underneath his arm. He takes another drag before he spots you.

He exhales out the side of his mouth, dropping the cig to the ground and stomping it out with the toe of his boot. You haven’t noticed him, too busy looking around you, observing the bodies that pass, the clouds in the sky overhead. It’s easy for you to get distracted like that.

When you see him, a wide smile stretches across your face, and he notices how you start to walk faster. When you’re close enough, he wraps his fingers around your wrist, pulling you into him, chests colliding as he presses his lips to yours. When you swipe your tongue against his bottom lip, he pulls away.

“Sorry.” He speaks, forehead resting against yours. “I taste like smoke.”

“I like it.” You move your hands up his arms, resting on his shoulders.

“Okay.” He grins. “Kiss me again.”

You do. “Again.”

He lets his sketches fall to the ground so that he can wrap both arms around your waist. You moan against his lips, so quiet he could have missed it, but it’s enough to drive him crazy. He licks into your mouth. He wants another moan. He pulls away to place kisses against your jaw.

The wind picks up around the two of you and Dabi’s sketches go flying. You pull away with a gasp, moving to pick up the scattered pieces of paper.

“Shit.” He curses, moving to help you.

“I wanted to see these.” You tell him, gathering a small stack in your hands, examining the figures on the page.

“They were just for class. Nothing special.” He tells you as he chases the rest of the sketches down. You shake your head at his words, and also at how silly he looks going after the papers.

“It’s all special.” You tell him, taking the stack that he’s gathered from his hands. You sit down, and Dabi looks at you fondly, recalling that first day he saw you. “To me.”

You can feel the charcoal against your thumbs as you flip through the pages, the smudges of shadows over each nude figure coming off on your skin. Dabi slowly sinks down next to you as you look through his sketches.

He finds himself nervous every time you look at his work. You see everything, every piece of his soul in every line, stroke, and smudge. Even in something as simple as a sketch, you still see him. You look up at him, eyes scanning his face, his furrowed brow, how his teeth tear at the skin of his lips. You reach up to pull it from his teeth, leaving a streak of gray against it.

“Will you draw me?” You ask him. “Like this?”
