also i am so sorry but they can never do a buffy reboot with the original cast of characters because you will never ever be able to knowingly recreate the precarious tightrope of sex-symbol, cringefail loser, vulnerable lover boy, clown, trash man, babygirl, that Spike achieved.
This man can only exist by accident, i am so so fucking sorrry

Danny keeps telling heros his tragic backstory buts just ripped from an old game no one really remembers that he liked. That or an old cartoon he watched as a kid.
Example: One day I just woke up and had this strange pink mark on my leg. I was freaking out but then started noticing all this stuff I could do. All of a sudden I liked fish? And these men would keep popping up and telling me I had to fight monsters. Telling me i was picked for it. I got this neat pendent though.
The league have no idea hes bsing them. But eventually he keeps getting closer and closer to the characters story that someone will figure it out. And I like to think it’s Redhood or Flash and no I wont explain why because if you know you know.
Bonus points if Danny switches it up like once he finishes telling the characters full backstory. Maybe it can become a game with him and the others. Who can guess his reference the fastest. Batman is not amused

if you're smiling you're vapid or flirty or vain or contrite or insipid or a massive bitch or coy or cunning and if you've relaxed and are just watching-back, you're enigmatic or mysterious or sexy or a massive bitch or coy or cunning and if you're frowning you're hysterical or overwrought or the voice of your people or hard to please or a massive bitch or
and you stand there reading the little plaque next to pictures of people who aren't really like you because they're rich and they wear satin but they are like you because they had to watch other people paint their pictures without getting to paint them by themselves and you think about the fact that something like 80% of "fine art" on the walls is only made by white men and how so many of these pictures are of white women and how many are of naked women and how many are of bloodshed, and how the women are all looking at you and watching you and there are so many discussions about what kind of a person is she
but she isn't in this painting, is she, she's watching like a ghost behind you, saying a man told my story and you know what that's like because her facial expression defines her personality (what if she was just happy? what if she was holding back a sneeze? what if she is a kind person who relaxes into a frown when she's not focusing?) and on trains and in public if you hunch too much or let your "resting bitch face" show (it means you're not-smiling. you don't even have to be frowning. you know people who think they have "resting bitch face" and really mean they don't look delicate and pretty when they're relaxing; their facial expression isn't even intimidating it just isn't lovely) like congratulations that's your whole personhood
oh it's lovely to be in art circles and of course you've had some similar conversations because you do your homework but when you point out that maybe it doesn't actually matter if the mona lisa is smiling, that maybe we need to look at something other than her lips - people tell you that you just don't get it, so maybe you don't, but your skin crawls because you picture someone taking a picture of you and saying is she coy? is she clever? what do we see? and you think. well, i'm hungry, and stressed, and i've got those rent bills incoming
and it's not like you can say it doesn't happen with men because of course there are conversations about it but you've noticed that a man with a blank face is empowered or showing leadership skills or calm or even kind - that he gets good attributes faster for less effort - and it's not like you're even a professional in these circles but it still feels like you're trying to express something very akin to - if you were one of us, you'd need no explanation for it because you can look at a picture of these women and something in your heart rings and something else in the back of your mind says - this isn't for everyone, this is only for us and you know that no matter what you do or say about dehumanization and how we are people at the end of the day and how not every woman who smiles at you lies on a spectrum of "flirting" or "devoid of wit" - no matter what you do, they're not going to get it.

Satan is talking about some of his favorite classical media and MC is like, "I really like Goncharov."
"Goncharov?"
"Yeah. So Scorsese, he's one of the greatest human directors of all time, he--"
"I've heard of Scorsese. Like Goodfellas."
"Yeah, Goncharov is his masterpiece. The most acclaimed mafia movie ever made."
He's interested and of course wants to watch it. MC eggs him on with more details. The fact that he can't find a way to stream it or purchase a copy only intrigues him more.
