Good reveal au, where after learning phantom's identity and realizing the atrocities that the GIW have committed (or alternatively, ethical science au, where they find out the GIW plagarized them), the fenton parents decided to create the 'ultimate ghost-ending weapon' and sell it to the agents.

They go absolutely overboard, describing to the agents in meticulous detail how it evaporates any ghost it hits near-instantly and describing it quite ruthlessly in the blueprints, and soon the GIW have raplaced all their main weapons with the new gun.

Except it doesn't actually kill ghosts. It's the Fenton Bazooka. You know, the one that creates a portable portal to suck the ghost back into the ghost zone? What they actually did was retool it slightly to make it look more grusome than it actually is. They even added a beacon in Phantom's Keep, which all Fenton Bazookas will target when they open a portal, so the ghosts are always delivered to the keep.

From there, Phantom stationed an emergency medical team at the keep to treat the many injured and ragged ghosts that the GIW 'destroyed,' and to explain what just happened.

What they didn't anticipate was that now that the GIW have a mass-produced weapon that they believed would effectively eradicate ghosts, they would go on the offensive. They have a number of cities they've been monitoring but didn't want to get involved in without better tools.

One of those cities is Gotham.

And the Bats are ectocontaminated enough to register as ghosts.

Batman witnessed several of his children get evaporated by green energy weapons within mere moments of each other. He's absolutely gutted. Devastated. They didn’t even stand a chance.

He'll get his revenge, and it's frighteningly easy to track the weapon to private subcontractors. The Doctors Fenton, in Illinois. Their research calls for the genocide of all ghost kind, and apparently, that war started by killing his own children.

His children will not die in vain.

He gets to Amity Park and finds the Engineer's Nightmare of a building that is Fentonworks, but that night, before he can hack through the security and break in, one of the windows opens.

It's one of his kids that he had watched evaporate before his very eyes. They give him a silent signal of one of their identifying security codes and gesture for him to come inside.

Is it a trap? A prank in poor taste? Utterly genuine?

He goes through the window.

All of his dead kids are there, wearing borrowed pajamas and only their dominoes to conceal their identities. Daniel Fenton (son of the Fentons, this is his bedroom, has voiced a few arguments against his parent's views, but still an unknown) is among the crowd of teens and young adults, twirling on an office chair and obnoxiously sipping a capri sun.

"First thing you need to know, Bats," Daniel says after finishing his drink, "is that my parents are absolutely NOT genocidal ectophobic scumbags, and that is the reason why your kids are still alive."

#the bats are not the first human liminals that the giw 'killed' #whenever humans land in the keep frostbite immediates calls phantom to take them back to earth #alternate scene at fentonworks: #bruce spies maddie on the phone and overhears her saying she'll 'inform batman when he arrives' #its frostbite/phantom on the phone telling her to keep an eye out for any bats because some of their team was 'killed' #and shortly after she spots batman spying on her and gestures for him to come in #and when theyre both in the lab the spectre speeder returns chock full of various bats and team phantom members #needless to say bruce is very relieved and incredibly confused #and his kids have a pretty wild story to tell #i deliberately left which kids vague #but i imagined jason and tim for sure and possibly two others #they hadnt left fentonworks yet as to not inform the giw that they survived and knowing that bruce would find them #it would also give away the fenton's trick and dont want to reveal that before the agency has been stopped #so they have to make a plan that doesnt reveal that theyre alive or expose the fentons deceit too quickly #the fentons may have to be temporarily arrested by the justice league while the investigation is ongoing #to hide the fact that they werent actually helping the giw #dpxdc #dp x dc

“unsatisfying endings can be good” and “i’m sick of every story i can relate to ending in tragedy” can and do coexist

#thinking abt finn’s new interest n what she’s told me abt it #n it’s sorta hit me like. why i was feeling the way i was abt the difference between the og story and the adaptation #and this is it #i love a good unsatisfying story. they hurt like hell but they stick with you #they might even teach you something if they’re done real interestingly #but often times they’re just cynical and depressing and it sucks #this is especially true bc so many mentally ill people gravitate to the unsatisfying ending #and it makes sense. like when you’re not doing well it’s hard to feel like it’s ever get better #you feel like it’s always gonna be like this and in the end you deserved it because you must have in order to go through this #and when that intersects with mental illness or queerness or blackness or anything like that #it becomes like. a gross concoction of internalized bigotry #and even these stories aren’t inherently negative! i think it’s a great coping mechanism actually- #place down all of your thoughts and deconstruct them through a story #but when Every Single Story involving people like you ends in ‘i never got happy’ or ‘i committed suicide’ or whatever #it’s just like…. you fucks are so damn cynical #and while it is okay to vent. can i get stories where people like me do get happy also. and they do recover #i think like essentially. #to say it shortly #having media with unsatisfying endings isn’t inherently bad. it can be really good actually #but when media about marginalized groups contains a disproportionately large amount of these stories #it’s just kinda. irritating and depressing

not sure if this was intentional or not but nemik saying in his manifesto “Remember this: Try.” is an interesting sentiment given that “do or do not, there is no try” is like one of the more famous lines from the original trilogy

#sw.txt #andor spoilers #andor #VERY INTERESTING IF THAT IS INTENTIONAL #maybe speaks to the disconnect between the jedi and the rebellion even after the order fell #the OT was written without the PT in mind but like the PT establishes yoda as a figurehead of the order #so like you could read that line as one being informed by a long familiarity with institutional power #and all the privileges that grants #there’s a similarly ‘heretical’ line from obiwan in uhhh wtf was that book called. planet something #the one by Greg bear #whatever it’s legends now but obiwan tells anakin that the force is not a nurse maid it will not protect you #which is a fairly radical thing for a Jedi to say #it’s understandable since it was shortly after he lost quigon #but I especially like when other sw media responds to established canon in a critical way #not necessarily to say it’s wrong but to present a perspective that frames the established canon as something you can contest

two things about lena kelley:

1. she says "i'm afraid i won't be able to join you at the [pub]". what if she literally can't leave the OIAR building?

2. she says gwen doesn't "have what it takes" to do lena's job. that could just be a jibe at gwen's work ethic, sure, but what if there's a deeper meaning to it? what if there's another, less mundane requirement to be a manager at the OIAR?

#what i'm saying is that i'm fully on board with the homunculena theory i reblogged earlier #yeah i'm reaching a lot here but that's part of the fun innit #i'm so glad we're getting regular scheduled magnus content again! #i only got into tma shortly before the finale came out so i missed a lot of the fun theorising #can't wait to be losing my mind with y'all <3 #tmagp #the magnus protocol #tmagp spoilers #the magnus protocol spoilers #lena kelley

Gods thinking about how whenever someone new to the island met Pac, they instantly thought of him as safe; Tubbo, Bagi, and Pepito from the top of my head. He’s just so loving and just so easy to love. I don’t think he’ll ever realize how much he means to people, how much people care about him, how strong they think he is.

#He loves so much and never expects anything back #But people do how could you not #Tubbo’s first interaction with Pac was saying he thinks they’re going to be best friends #Pepito thought about calling him Apa shortly after meeting him #Bagi tried to isolate herself but couldn’t help but consider Pac as safety #Qsmp #qsmp pac

okay so. like. wan ed 12. dazai is stopped by a log in the river and starts actually drowning. funny haha wan bit.

but repeating something ive said (hi haven) i think this is actually a really good example for how ada dazai doesn't really want to kill himself. he could've actually drowned here. thats his 'goal' right? but the moment it starts happening he's trying to get his head back above water.

"I thought I was dead"

hilariously wet and horrified or not he obviously didn't want to die here. theres nobody around to hear what he said anymore anyway. and that's why, despite being yk... a wan ending animation? i still think this is such like. a case in point.

#i think its obvious from how unlikely to work his other attempts are in the ada #things like the oil drum or the mushrooms. asking woman to commit double suicide. all of that has such a low chance of working. its- #-humorous even. when he meets atsushi kunikida gets there shortly after. even if atsushi wasnt there he was DEFINITELY not planning on dying #anyway this is aether taking things too seriously and getting ill about it #im not saying ada dazai isnt still aiming to die we've all talked about the martyr behavior #but hes not really trying to die via suicide #anyway shout out to my bestest friend haven(-gum-rockrose) for sending me a song for the dazai playlist which made me ill and then prompted #me to find this clip later in the conversation #which then lead to me talking here #hurrah 🎉‼️ #longer post #theory time w/ aether #it's not actually i just want to find this later

sfx of me patting his stomach repeatedly until he pats me across the face, very hard & very fast

Hehehe all I can think of is Ghost giving Koenig that same look that Isabel gives Mirabel from Encanto when he tells him to apologize to MC. Like does that last frame not scream dangerous Fae that will destroy you in a heartbeat????

Konig is so mad because Ghost is right he does have to apologize, but he doesn't have to be mean about it :( Which Ghost is absolutely being mean about it, grinning at that man like the devil, completely prepared to fight him on this. It's just adding insult to injury making him apologize to the human. But contrary to Konig's previous action of touching Ghost's pet he does actually want to stay alive so he's gotta suck it up and say he's sorry even though he doesn't really mean it, which MC rightly calls him out on.

Ghost fucking burns that paper too, as soon as he and MC get home he burns it over the sink. It is so deeply satisfying to him seeing you get a hook in someone, to be owed a favor from another fae.

"Guess we're never calling him," You joke, watching Simon watch the paper burn to his fingertips. You'd be concerned about him burning himself, but you're not actually sure he can be hurt.

"More valuable to hold onto it," Simon tells you, the paper gone without even a speck of ash on his fingers, you don't even smell smoke, "It's good to have Debts, gives you leverage." You make a face.

"Ugh, no, I hate owing people. I always pay them back as quickly as possible." A smile split Simon's face, his hand reaches forward and twists around something between you, pulling hard. Every nerve in your body lights up at once, your muscles trembling just at the edge of some unexplainable pull. Whatever Simon is holding onto is thick, braided, and impossibly heavy, a million little somethings you could never hope to pay back.

"Is that so?" He purrs low and promising.

Had a dream last night that Eliot was sitting in a hospital bed with some bandages and stuff on and said "maybe we provide too much leverage." In a grouchy and sarcastic voice.

#i think maybe shortly before it someone else (maybe hardison or nate) had explained to one of the nurses that they ''provide leverage'' #that was the whole dream. it was like five seconds long. #i really wish i had more context but i don't. #does Eliot need a vacation? #is that what he was trying to say? #goodness knows he deserves one! #leverage #Eliot Spencer
