#they are each other's safe space

[puppetmaster13u]

Prompt 266

Back on my Danny & Ras frienemies/rivals/maybe-lovers-nobody-can-tell-their-signals-are-very-mixed train. 

See, Danny has gone through time a lot. Often. It comes with being Clockwork’s charge-son-thing and honestly he finds it fun. And several times he’s used this time travelling to get some training in. Enter Ras, stage left, also a teen at the time and also learning swordsmanship from the same person. 

And they… utterly despise each other. They would kill the other for an apple slice, if the other one would die! But also, only they can kill the other, as it is obviously their right! 

And well, they keep running into each other. It has been a hundred years, surely the other would die by now? But of course their rival would live through utter spite. Probably to spite them specifically. 

The amount of times they have ended up sparring- trying to kill each other or not- the moment they see the other is actually ridiculous. But time is also passing. And… Danny understands, not having another to talk about things people are forgetting, or have already forgotten. 

How they ended up actually talking without a murder attempt was a long story that included a demon, a dragon, a pair of fae, some bandits, and a lot of alcohol, but it happened. And then it happens again. And again, and now it’s just kind of normal to share a drink after their spars, talking about things that no longer exist, and things they miss. 

Sure Danny can go back in time again, but he knows better than to do it willy nilly. He’s matured, he’s been an adult for a hundred years now, he knows there’s consequences for messing with time, even with Clockwork’s blessings. 

The first time they got married was technically for an undercover assassination. Well, Ras was there to assassinate someone, Danny was there to grab an artifact that should Not be in the realm of the living. And they got divorced after, it was fine. 

They just, also got married again when they met a few years later, for another job. And… okay, so maybe they have gotten married over a dozen times now and only divorced like half of those times. Half of those were for the bit or while drunk! 

And even if technically they’re married or shared a bed, it’s not like they're exclusive! As Ras’ daughters’ existences attest to (adopted in one case or not). They don’t exactly have a label for their relationship, despite others asking for one or trying to put a name to it themselves. 

Now Danny knows Ras isn’t exactly a good dude, or at least on the side of ‘good’ as he’s a literal assassin. But he also knows that good? Bad? Rather relative. He had gotten labeled as a villain when he was just trying to help all that time ago after all, and really who was he to tell someone else how to live their life? 

Which brings him to now, where he’s run into his old frienemy-rival and his youngest daughter. Who has a braindead teenager and a small toddler. Which is fine, really- but also, Talia dear, why are you using a brain dead teenager to guard your three year old son? 

…

Okay, Talia dear, Ras (Derogatory), why are you using your brain dead son and grandson to guard your younger son and grandson? Do you not have the Pits, which you were soo proud about Ras? Yes, he will spar with you, but for Realms’ sake, heal, what’s his name? Ah yes, go heal Jason and he’ll actually stick around for a few years, deal? Good. 

#DCxDP #DPxDC #Prompts #Deadly Decisions #Danny is Not Ghost King & he doesn’t want to be #Danny isn’t from the same timeline as DC but he hops around so many that he’s formed a few favorites #You Know the bats are going to go crazy searching for some sort of proof of Danny’s existence when they finally communicate w/ each other #Why yes Danny is an adult lol (he is also tall but has body more like his mom) #Yes Sam showed him how to do makeup & it was a bonding thing while they bitched #Is Danny Dusan’s mom? Wonderful question that the league is pondering themself #Danny introduced Sam & Tucker to Ras once & it was horrific how well they got along #Danny almost forgot that Tucker was once a royal dictator who had constant assassination attempts #Sam & Ras bond over violent love of nature & willingness to kill to keep it safe from assholes #Damian about Danny: Obviously this is Grandmother #Jason after being thrown in the Pit: Who are you Where am I What the fuck #Damian: :O Akhi you can speak now :D Come see my puppy Grandmother gave me for protection #Ras & Danny: Threatening each other #Everyone else: Do they want to kill each other or are they flirting or both… #Space Core Danny #Star Core Jason

sometimes ghost just needs to block out everything that isn't johnny.

#so #simon obviously has some issues with intimacy #i think it takes him a long time for him to be okay with showing his belly #metaphorically of course #i just think johnny represents that safe space for him #and the idea of ghost being overwhelmed and dragging johnny into his lap #and just. tucking himself into the crook of his neck. inhaling. #letting the smell of him shudder through him #and a softer #more relaxed exhale #they love each other so much #idk what else to say #ghostsoap #simon ghost riley #simon riley #john soap mactavish #giragi art

louis, lestat, and their single bed as a motif louis puts into his own story, but refuses to explore, is literally one of the sexiest parts of the show. it speaks volumes about a level of fulfillment and freedom that louis feels by being with lestat that he rarely explicitly comments on when he's relaying his story to daniel, which feels extremely relevant to his overall reluctance to examine the parts of his relationship with lestat that he really enjoyed.

because louis is a character who's hyper aware of how he presents himself. he's lived his entire life projecting a certain masculine, heteronormative image, and he's aware of how deviating from that presentation has implications that impact how people view him - from enjoying the opera, to the presentation of his nails. the fact that he moves in with lestat and neither of them ever put a second bed into any room in the house as a level of plausible deniability is so huge and oversight by so cautious a character, it can only be read as deliberate - especially when the conspicuous lack of a second bed is pointed out to them by both antoinette and a literal police officer. in an existence where you don't sleep in a bed, the bed becomes a symbolic object more so than a practical one. it's louis choosing to deliberately transgress against the societal expectations he lives out when he leaves his house, a bit of presentation that actually amplifies his truth as a gay man living with his partner, rather than masking or hiding himself, like he does for the outside world.

#literally imagine the satisfaction and euphoria in having one place where you can purposely present yourself as gay #where you can look at your own personal space and go 'it looks like a gay man lives here' and feel safe and accepted in that #i feel similarly about the way lestat touches louis tbh #especially as viewed through claudia's diaries #there's an openness to the way louis and lestat behave around each other that their status (of being rich and being vampires) #grants them that louis hasn't really gotten the chance to explore before #and they still can't be blatant about their queerness obviously #but they get away with significantly more than louis has ever allowed himself in his human life #there is an incredible amount of relief and joy in having a partner who isn't ashamed to touch you #and you can see louis feel that #it's one of my favorite pieces of the narrative threaded through the entire story #rarely commented on but still blatant for how encompassing queer love can be #iwtv

Am I in mourning? And also in denial? Yes. Do I also think David Jenkins tried his best to solve this in 2 months and it didn't happen (because HBO needs to rot in hell)? And that he didn't want people to spend any more time, resources and mental health on something that could take (many many months) a lot of time? Also yes. And, most importantly, do I think Our flag means us? It does. Our flag means us. It means this community, these people who managed to find hope and joy and solace in each other. Our flag means found family for those who had the misfortune of having blood relations they couldn't call by this name. Our flag means queer celebration, indigenous representation, creative ingenuity. It means the crew on the set of s02 doing wonders with their bare hands, budget cuts be damned. It means a handcrafted mermaid tail, a hand-made storm, eel bites, sword training, meticulous tattoos, "There he is", boyfriends, running on the beach, a bare-butt guy, a green-socked leg, a sammy in the face, people dressing up in British navy uniforms. It means everything. It means everything to me. It's my whole heart. So don't forget it in the days to come. Don't forget what was taken from us but also remember: Our flag will always mean us.

#our flag means death #ofmd #david jenkins #Also Axe Max you all #fuck them pricks and the horse they rode in #don't forget to hold safe space for each other #something max failed to do

The business partners are dancing!

#rel'sart #alastor #charlie magne #hazbin hotel #hh #vivziepop #got my own issues with the show and creator but I've been attached to the two of them since the pilot #can be interpreted as charlastor if you like :3 #I never really saw them as father and daughter esp in the pilot? So episode five was a slap to the face. I did not see it coming at all SDO #charlastor #like #I can understand how others would ship them given how intriguing their dynamic is #both of their ideals and beliefs are in conflict and against each other #but at the same time they seem to share a lot of similar interests??? and also the vibes are impeccable #like the two of them can really challenge the other I would say... #but yeah my blog is a safe space for those who like Charlastor! #honestly I don't even mind a platonic dynamic for them #their interactions are always so intriguing to me #Like Alastor being intrigued by Charlie #seeing her as the most interesting thing after years of BOREDOM #He wants in on that #Front row seats if you will #I think every single action he takes towards her is manipulative but he grows to care for her in his own way #Charlie sees the good in everyone and is hellbent on proving Alastor wrong #One might say #she believes in redeeming even him #which Alastor just laughs at #I've been a Charlastor shipper since the pilot and I have curated my own specific view on them ever since KSDHD #Like...in the Charlastor ship right...I can't actually imagine Alastor loving Charlie in a romantic way?? #It's more like he's fascinated by her and wants to shake her in a bottle BAHAHAH

[murasaki-cha]

Ok but I think I'm finally well enough to talk about this

....no I'm not *screams*!!!

Ok but in all seriousness, the way that the intimacy in this scene wasn't even sexual in the slightest despite their position. It was just comforting and soft and they're just so clingy with each other😭😭😭😭😭😭

reminder that narc abuse

1. isn't real

2. is ableist & harmful!!

reminder that npd is

1. a trauma-formed disorder

2. not inherently abusive or evil

3. a valid disorder that people struggle and suffer with every day

reminder that

1. if you use narc abuse, you are ableist, end of story

2. anybody can be abusive- nobody is inherently abusive because of a disorder

2a. your abusive ex was abusive because they're an abuser, not because they're a narcissist

3. you are not a bad person if you have low empathy. you are not a bad person if you have high empathy. you are a bad person if you hurt others on purpose for personal gain or validation

4. your trauma is real and valid. what isn't valid is demonizing a disorder because somebody else hurt you. calling abuse survivors abusive by proxy is hurtful, and you are a shitty person if you do it

pt under the cut ...

It's peaceful without u. But I'd rather choose the chaos with u over the peace with out u.

Sunshine golden retriever energy Pat Napat Jindapat being depressingly lonely because his childhood-rival-turned-best-friend who doesn't even allow to call each other friend is not in his life.

The fact that his life is peaceful without Pran, but he's at peace when he's with Pran.

Pran defines his peace.

Things might not end well whenever I'm close to u, but I can be anywhere as long as I have u.

Perfectionist Pran Parakul Siridechawat who plans everything in his life including his 3 watoons in his noodles feeling his life tilting out of its axis because his childhood-rival-turned-best-friend-turned-crush is not in his life. Because his axis is built around Pat.

The fact that things might not go according to plan when he's with Pat, but he can make peace with it as long as he's with Pat.

Pat defines his peace.

NO ONE TOUCH ME !!!

#bad buddy #the way they love each other makes me want to pull my hair out #they r each others safe space #they r each others peace!! #bad buddy brain rot #bad buddy brain freeze #im completely normal about them #bad buddy series #bad buddy the series #patpran #Pran Parakul Siridechawat #Pat Napat Jindapat

Jonathan always hooks his leg around one of Argyle's whenever they are sitting side by side. It's a comfort thing. He just sneaks his foot in between both of Argyle's, still in the middle of conversation with someone else, or focused on his food - whatever it is they might be doing. Argyle presses their knees together every time in a silent Hello. I'm here. I've got you, dude.
