#surprise story!

[gatorinator]

“Walrus on your doorstop” this “fairy’s more unrealistic” that my professor just uttered the sentence “there was one day I found a real octopus in my backyard” this man hasn’t left Utah his entire life. How was there an octopus in his backyard in Utah. He then said “I do not have time to elaborate we need to cover a lot today in class” GIRL WHAT DO YOU MEEAN

#al speaks #we are fifteen minutes into class and still haven’t had any class cuz he was telling a story. wdym you don’t have time for the octopus story #stop class I want to know everything. I guess he would say he would be more surprised to see a fairy than a walrus #walrus or fairy

Future Son????

It has been a while since I have done an original prompt. So DCxDP prompt #2

Danny gets into a fight with Impulse/Bart about Bart changing the timeline messing things up for Danny and effectively erasing his family, because the change made it so Maddie and Jack never got together. But because of Clockwork sending him on a mission to the past while Bart changed the timeline and the medallion Dan had phased into Danny he remembers the old timeline. Also he has access to his powers but for some reason can’t change into ghost form.

This fight happens in front of the rest of the young justice team. And Nightwing was coming there to teach a training lesson and over hears half of what Danny is shouting.

From Dick’s point of view there is a black haired, blue eyed kid with powers that are suspiciously like a Tamuraneans, yelling at Bart about losing his family because his parents never got together. Also Dick and Kori had recently broken up. (Feel free to make up a reason.)

Due to a misunderstanding Dick is going to help his time displaced “son” adjust to the new reality.

Jazz and Johnny got...way more involved that Danny will ever want to know.

And Jazz, very liminal, actually fell pregnant.

She opted to leave for a bit, have the baby, and adopt it out. It was half ghost and half very liminal human, she had no idea what the GIW would do to it.

So she left on an "extended study trip", gave birth, gave it over to the adoption agency, warned them there was a high chance the kid would be a meta, and went about recovering.

Unbeknownst to her, that baby was immediately stolen by one Sheila Haywood for the purposes of tax fraud.

From there, the baby was given to Willis Todd, after Sheila lied and said that he was the father.

From there, the baby was put under the care of Catharine Todd, who died far too young.

From there, the kid tried to steal Batman's tires so he wouldn't starve.

Fast forward, and Jason Todd, now an adult, decides to pay a visit to the new head Psychologist of Arkham to vet the lady.

He ends up staring into a set of eyes that mirror his own, and when he runs the DNA from the hair he stole off of her, it comes back positive that yeah.

That's his mom.

#dpxdc #dcxdp #dp x dc #dc x dp #phanfic #story prompt #jason doesn't know what to do with this information #this is the second surprise mom he's ever gotten #and it's weird that it happened twice #which means that if willis wasn't his dad #then who the fuck was #idk i just thought “it'd be pretty neat if Jason was literally half undead and that's why superboy prime could rezz him so easily”

reading and watching “classic” books and films is such an interesting experience because, before you get into them, when you only know them by name and maybe the vaguest plot outline, they’re intimidating and stuffy and up on a pedestal, but then you finally take the leap and check them out and realize that almost every story that’s achieved such a legendary level of popularity did so because something in its emotional core reached out and grabbed a lot of people by the throat and you are NOT immune.

#not that anyone but me probably needs to hear this but… #it’s OKAY to have Big Feelings about popular things #they’re popular for a reason - it makes sense to have a big reaction #but yeah - i should really know by now but i’m STILL floored every time i read or watch a classic and it Gets Me #like. this story has been Getting people for decades or centuries or MILLENNIA and yet STILL i’m surprised #‘i didn’t think the story would Get me’ says man about story that’s Gotten everyone who’s ever heard it

Congratulations to Dungeon Meshi on the first episode of the animation adaptation!

#dungeon meshi #laios touden #marcille donato #senshi #chilchuck tims #I have been getting into a lot of dungeon related media recently and what better way to celebrate this by cheering on Dungeon Meshi #Which is about to start airing it's first season! #I have a few friends who are deep in the Dungeon Meshi caverns and I am so excited to surprise them with this art #The group chats are already blowing up with people drawing and now I can join in! Yippee! #My favourite character wont appear in this season but that is okay. I am so fond of them all B*) #It really is a very special and dear story that I am happy to see get more love and exposure. #Not sure what the overlap is for mdzs and dungeon meshi but I must do my dues to spread the word. #I'll work on figuring out how to draw these silly adventurers better and return with more art at the end of the season.

[bonecouch]

idea i had

#doodles #i feel like a lot of media overplays the bat transformation when vampires can also turn into wolves and mist #theres a story in vampirella issue 1 (september 1969) called “death boat” which i wont spoil but the twist ending really surprised me #i wanted to have the vampire/mist/smoke come out of the bite but it would have been hard for me to draw in paint #like it would have covered the bite marks and i thought it wouldnt be clear what was happening

When a relationship is "like family" but in a bad way. "Like family" in the sense that it becomes the only allowable place to seek care. In that it legitimizes the isolation and violence of an us-vs-them mentality. In that it creates hierarchical power structures and conditions where abuse and control are both easily rationalized and near impossible to break out of. Where the only way to escape your subjugation is to stop being the child and become the parent, starting the cycle anew. And this is both expected and encouraged. Where you feel obligated to repay your caretaker by becoming the kind of person they want you to be. Where everyone looks a little too much like you.

#''lena why do you fixate on the horrible wealthy family trope don't you hate rich people'' see my vision. #anyways this is about blumendrei. to no one's surprise. #went back and forth about whether to put this on my sideblog but. covert CR posting on main is a storied tradition #blumendrei #cr2

Absolutely losing my mind over Scar’s stream today

He was already talking to Etho while catching ocelots

Joel logs in and Scar immediately asks if Etho wants to go visit him

We get so many Etho lore crumbs (although he doesn’t fully confirm anything except having stubble and trying to get rid of 2 extra house generators)

They hang out for like 2 hours doing nothing hut chatting

Eventually Scar leaves but forgot that he left his ocelots at Etho’s because he was so excited about boat boys that he never brought them home

#ethoslab #goodtimeswithscar #smallishbeans #boat boys #hermitcraft #there was so much more as well and I already want to rewatch the streams bc ads kept trying to interrupt the lore #both joel and gem told etho they wanted a generator and he told them they had to pick it up but couldn’t tell them where #he also might live in the middle of nowhere off the grid and has to chop wood for electricity #he also may or may not have a phone but hinted at probably not #but somehow managed to get fast internet #to be clear none of what he said surprised me one bit #he also retold the same story of his voice being recognized so is that still the only time #i find it hard to believe but also he is probably the closest to an actual hermit irl of anyone on the server

the crazy thing is that malevolent really seems like it's gonna be one of those "there's nothing actually special about this guy, he just has very bad luck." stories but no. there IS something special about that guy. there's a REASON this is happening to him. this story could NOT have happened to anyone else the way it did to him. somehow, for some reason, arthur lester is special. and even more absurdly, this specific version of arthur lester is special. that's insane.

so much of the horror genre is all about how these things could happen to anyone, but malevolent wants you to explicitly know that arthur lester is important. arthur lester is the reason this story is happening. arthur lester is different, in some strange way that even he doesn't fully understand.

and that's what makes him the main character, not just the protagonist.

#when i first started listening to malevolent i really thought it was gonna be like tma. like a guy just going through the horrors #because hes part of a bigger plan #but no. #arthur lester surprised me in such a positive way #this story doesn't just follow him this story is ABOUT him. and he won't let you forget that. #i just. him!!!! #he is my roman empire #he is. the only fiction podcast protagonist i truly care about. sorry not sorry #theres just something so intrinsically different about him #malevolent #malevolent podcast #arthur lester #malevpod #malevolent meta

[Image description: A digital pencil comic of Loid and Yor Forger. Panel 1: They sit on a couch, Loid slightly hunched forward and Yor slouching into the seat back.

Yor: You know...

Loid: Hm?

Yor: When Yuri moved out, I remember thinking- Eventually we'll run out of 'clients'. It has to end at some point right? "When does the fighting stop?".

Panel 2: Yor from Loid's pov, slightly turned away.

Yor: And here I am.

Panel 3: Loid looking forward with a look of exhaustion.

Yor (off-screen): Still on call.

End ID]

gotta do everything myself. anyway the ramifications of a war that never truly ends, causing people to do terrible things in the name of a peaceful future that may never happen due to powers much bigger than them

#spy x family #yor forger #loid forger #the story's politics sit between basic war-is-bad and hmmmmm dont know about this #who knows anything is capable of surprising you #mostly i would like them to talk to each other about their jobs in both funny and sad ways

I was hanging out with one of my exes and she asked if I wanted to see the sexy outfit she got to surprise her wife with. I said sure and a few minutes later, she comes out wearing and pink and white bunny costume. Full on A Christmas Story without the head/hood. I told her she had great taste and her wife would love it.

Also pretty cool how Gwen's role at the end of the movie is to lead the team to save Miles

Not what you see everyday in a superhero movie since the target demographic is men usually

#spiderverse #spiderman across the spiderverse #across the spiderverse #atsv #gwen stacy #spider gwen #miles morales #spiderman #sidrabbles #and this was not a Marvel Girl Power moment cough endgame cough #she was a secondary protagonist whose story intertwined with miles' which was a total surprise to me #she just happens to be a dear friend and ally of his who is a girl

Lan Wangji Goes To Lotus Pier AU: Part 2: Indocktrination

(Part 1, Part 3)

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #mdzs AU #Yungmeng Jiang training arc AU #nie huaisang #lan wangij #wei wuxian #jiang cheng #Quick note: These comics are going to be out of order timeline-wise. Less of a story; more of a splattering of ideas. #Per last comic; I think WWX and JC showing up wet and covered in mud was 100% on purpose (on wwx's behalf) #A hazing ritual for the rumoured stuck-up Lan boy who would be coming to train with them. #With that in mind - I think LWJ has been pushed off the docks several times by this point. This is is first time dunking someone else. #The completion of the Jiang indoctrination is being both the pusher and pushee. LWJ has gained true respect now. #Yes think does mean I think Jiang Yanli has both been pushed and pushed someone into the water. #I think WWX would have volunteered but she went in for a surprise attack on JC. This is a point of contention among the trio.

DCxDP Idea:

Danny is Constantine's son (Either the Fenton's had a threesome or there was a weird lab accident) and that gives him first dibs to the guy's soul. Maybe some old magic law about how if you sell your firstborn and that firstborn turns out to be, say, an Eldritch deity with dubious morality and teenage spitefulness, or similarly powerful being, that kid gets their parent's soul as recompense. Except a lot of other beings already had claim to Constantine's soul, and now they're sending Danny whiny letters about it. Danny's eighteenth birthday basically goes: hurray! Now have all this whiny paperwork from asshole demons.

#Constantine doesn't know he has a kid #he put a lot of effort into not having a kid #magical and normal contraconception #that said he isn't surprised that the kid who shouldn't exist is a baby cthonic godling #bout par for the course #DCxDP #fandom #danny phantom #dpxdc #dp x dc #fandom stuff #dc #danny fenton #john constantine #story prompt
