OC in Three Tag
I'm picking up @starbuds-and-rosedust 's open tag because I have a character that needs a bit of attention. I'm still in the process of creating her, step number 1 of which is creating a name based off a culture that is not familiar to me and very complicated. I've done some homework, but subject to change.*
Rahdiya Asjad al Pasha, daughter of a Hadrian dignitary, and a preeminent young scholar in the University of Künaydın in Hadria.

miscellaneous danyal al ghul things
specifically about the danyal al ghul from my post/prompt here and i wanna get my misc. headcanons/thoughts on him (especially in his early stay with the fentons) out here before i make any other danyal al ghul aus
list under the cut because whoops this got longer than i expected. which really i should have expected
the Fentons are unaffiliated with the League, which was perfect for Danny faking his death.
he struggles with empathy. Empathy was not taught nor encouraged while he was with the League, so it's a skill that's been pretty stunted. At 15 he's better at empathizing with people, but he still struggles with it. He's pretty bad at reassuring/comforting people and usually acts as an emotional rubber duck for Sam and Tucker to vent to if need be. He sometimes offers blunt and sometimes mean opinions, especially if its about another person.
Sam and Tucker do not know he's an ex-assassin, they are however, pretty positive that he used to be part of an eco-fascist cult with a focus on martial arts?? They've been helping him tone down some of his more,,, extreme views on humanity ever since they caught wind of his more extreme ideologies.
He and Sam are still avid environmentalists and feed into each other quite a bit. They spend plenty of time at protests and pestering the school into more eco-friendly options.
Dash is not dead on the sole fact that Danny knew he had to lay low in Amity Park and killing someone was not, in fact, 'laying low'.
he did, however, traumatize him when Dash first tried to bully him. Safe to say, Danny is not bullied at school and neither are Sam and Tucker.
Danny didn't make any friends in his first year at Amity Park. He was surly, grumpy, standoffish, more stubborn than Sam, and pretty self-important about himself. Jazz was trying to teach him against these things, but she is a 12 year old unaffiliated with the League. Danny did not respect her nor listen to a word she said. It wasn't until like, year two that he finally started paying to mind what she was saying and slowly started to improve on himself
Sam approached him first, he rebuffed her quite harshly, and then Danny approached her sometime afterward when he overheard her talking about environmental rights. Sam completely ignored him though when he agreed with her, and Danny had to later learn that he needed to apologize for being rude to her when they first met. He did so eventually, and they started to talk more with Tucker and Sam.
Danny's a bit more reserved than he is in canon, although he steadily learns how to act as a regular teenager when he's out in public. He's a bit more friendlier at least, although when he's around Sam and Tucker he drops the act. He still has a somewhat formal way of talking, it's just become more casual after a lot of ribbing from Sam and Tucker. When he's angry or annoyed he starts talking poshly though.
His humor is relatively the same as in canon, if somehow dryer and more insulting at some points
Those rare moments where he gets really pissed usually ends up with him insulting someone in arabic or any of the other languages he picked up from the league. He is the go-to for Tucker's Spanish homework. (Tucker makes that mistake and learns that Danny is a very strict teacher)
while Danny doesn't view the Fentons as his parents, even five years after living with them, he does respect them to some amount. He respects them enough at least that when Vlad Masters comes sniffing around, he is suitably offended on both Maddie and Jack's behalf. And when he finds out Vlad was the one who tried to kill Jack and tried to tell him to renounce him as his father/parental guardian, danny threw a suitably sharp object at him and insulted him quite horrendously
Vlad still wants him as his kid. In fact perhaps even moreso after this.
Danny trains with Maddie to keep up with his training. It's not quite the same but it prevents him from getting completely rusty
Sam and Tucker know that Danny has a little brother, but nothing else beyond that other than Danny cares about him quite a lot and that he got his facial scar from keeping him safe.
Danny cares about Sam, Tucker, and Jazz quite a bit, but he struggles to convey it. Especially early on when he realized he cared about them and like instinct started being harsher to them and more critical of their actions. This resulted in quite a few arguments with Sam and Tucker and Jazz until he got sat down and told outright that the way he was treating them wasn't okay. It's a process he's still trying to unlearn even at 15. He has become kinder towards them as a result, and has begun looking for what they did right rather than what they did wrong.
He harbors a lot of guilt over how he treated Damian in the League, and its a pretty big conflict he has with himself since he's torn between telling himself it was for the best to make sure Damian survived the League, and feeling like crap over how harsh/critical of Damian he was and realizing that he probably could have come up with a better way of training him despite being a child himself at the time. Danny comes to the realization that more than anything, that he just wants to apologize.
His ghost form, specifically is outfit, is a combination of his hazmat suit and his uniform from the league, and he carries a sword with him. He also doesn't know how to react to Dani, honestly. Although it is fair to say that he figures out she's a clone instantly because of her whole 'I'm your third cousin once removed' thing and he freaks out. She spills the beans pretty quickly after that. And Danny is pretty skittish around her - or the equivalent of skittish. Her being younger than him kinda reminds him of Damian, so he's uncomfortable by her presence but learns to warm up to her.

Every so often I see this YT short that's like "what's a not-so-well-known fact" and every single time it includes "mummies weren't rare until the Victorians started eating them" and this quote it drives me insane.
I need you all to know that when the Victorians first entered Khufu's tomb at Giza, Khufu was not in there. Grave robbers had already removed his mummy and destroyed it. Additionally during Khufu's lifetime we have scribe records that his father's tomb had been looted, and by the time the palace guards had apprehended the grave robbers, they had already destroyed the body. These reports are all over records in Ancient Egypt.
The Ancient Egyptian process of mummification is extremely effective at preserving a body, but it also makes the body extremely brittle and fragile. Additionally, part of the process of wrapping the mummy in linen included adding talismans-often made of gold and semi-precious stones-between the lines of the bandages.
Also I just need to note: remains classified and recognizable as Egyptian mummies aren't all that rare for a selection of remains predominantly accessible by the upper classes. Many of Egypt's remaining mummies are back in their tombs where they go, and most of the rest are on display across the world.
Twenty-one museums in the United States have Egyptian mummies on display, thirty-seven museums in the United Kingdom do, many of those museums have multiple mummies on display. The Royal Ontario museum has nine mummies in its collection. The Wikipedia page documenting the list of museums with Egyptian mummies in their collection notates 46 prominent mummies, none of the ones noted belong to the British Museum, which has a collection of 140 mummies and coffins.
Victorians eating mummies didn't magically make them rare, you just can't see most of them because they were either destroyed before Victorians even came to Egypt, are on display in a museum you've never been to, or they were already re-interred.

fyi, saying an actor forgot their lines and just made something up is very rarely true. A line can be good without lying that it was improvised I promise ♥️

Romance peaked at Rick O'Connell telling Beni with deadly seriousness that he was in Evey's seat and had to move. Evey's seat is beside Rick no matter where she might have been or how long someone else had been sat there. He will make them make space for her.
