The Whispering God- DCxDP prompt
There is a god that belongs to no pantheon. You don't pray to them as they do not need favor or give blessings by your will. They have no alter as they don't have a place they dwell.
They are only a rumor as only those that have heard him can speak of him.
It is said that you will hear him whisper in your ear a message only for you. He will tell you what is needed. His words were fate.
When Clytemnestra slayed her husband it was he who told her that it would be so and that she was right to do it. But the gods of greek denied her.
He whispered into the ear of Pierre Picaud that he was right to feel betrayed and inspired the story of the Count of Monte Cristo.
Here and there and everywhere he would whisper his words. If you listen to his words you will do something in wrath.
When a poacher kills elephants for ivory it is he who tells the elephants to stampede.
He will suggest that a plug be pulled here or a request left unfinished there.
He is considered an evil god that dwells in the back of their mind. So many disregard his existence, after all, he rarely is heard. Many don't think he exists at all.
So the only ones who have the chance to hear him are the ones willing to hear him are those desperate enough to listen.
Then there are the few to hear him well. Who feel him deep within. They are the chosen. When a human digs too deep that they catch the eyes of a divine. They are opened to a deeper understanding of the world.
Poe who saw the outline of despair and blessed with their misery. Shakespeare who wanted to create dreams made reality. And a family of bats who see feel the quiet rage of this god.
Yes, each of them has heard the call. The patriarch did not listen, however. He felt but did not answer. But his sons did.
Rage, vengeance, and the desire to correct the wrongs of this world flowed their their blood.
He squeezed the throat of the eldest boy when his hated enemy taunted him for his brother's death. He answered and took their life in return.
He chose the once dead revenant as his champion. To carry the light of vindication and create a balance where the light is dying.
The middle boy's heart was festered with indignation. He saw the dreadful arch that led before him and drove deeper in to the dark to drag truth out of it.
The only one with eyes to see him was resilient but he listens. Deep down he listens. He fights the shadows but he too will embrace them in time.
Then the youngest. He only learned through death the call. Still young he does not hear properly yet. But the whisperers will find him. They have already started showing him the way carved by the family he was born to.
Each has carried the torch into the dark. Cursed by the Whispering God. They can reject or embrace it but they must bear it unknowingly. A God that does not accept worship or acknowledgement but will not be ignored.
Because it's not fair. Revenge is justice. It is order. It is healing. It will be had.
The Green Lantern Corps got their power from a Ghost King before Pariah's reign. For their power, they were told to be the guards to the Ghost King. When Pariah was sealed away by the Ancients, all the Lantern corps had lost some power. But when Pariah was freed, they regained those powers, and before any of the Lantern Corps could reach Pariah to fulfill the pact made long ago, he was sealed again, but the mantle of Ghost King had passed to another.
The many Lanterns of the different Corps were searching the universe to see who had become the new Ghost King. They need to fulfill the pact to keep their powers.
All the Lantern Corps were slowly losing their powers the longer they went without being by the Ghost King's side. And then they felt a pulse of power coming from the Ghost King's core, granting them power, that pulse means the Ghost King is in danger. They all follow the pulses from the Ghost King's Core, which leads them to earth.
They enter a facility that is in the Midwest, from what Hal Jordan had told them about the earth's topography of America. What they find is a horrific sight, the Ghost King, a teenage boy, strapped down to a table and cut open.
Hal Jordan reaches a hand up to his ear and speaks
"Batman, you need to prepare the Batcave for medical. We found who we're supposed to protect"
(Yes, I'm a Batlantern shipper, but I'm not too obsessed with the ship)
Just remembered a dream I had last night.
(+18 mentions, be warned)
So, the dream was about Gru and the minions, right? So, Gru was making the minions build a new place, and for some weird reason every few minutes while in the base, Gru would close his eyes and the next thing I knew he's half naked and a bunch of minions are opening his legs for another minion to enter him... Yea.... It was a weird dream....
Have fun with the mental image!!
A crossover no one asked for...
except me.
it’s always “why did you sacrifice yourself and leave me behind” and never How was the sacrifice Was sacrificing yourself fun it looked fun
That one conversation on the roof
Can you give the fic name/link?? I've been trying to find more of these on Ao3 but I think I've read them all 😅
Heroes at the watchtower: Why are they staring at each other? I hope they get along..
14-year-old Danny in his adult ghost king form:
14-year-old Billy in his adult Shazam form:
Dick Grayson is one of if not the most respected person in the hero community
Tim isn’t as well known in the hero community but is respected and feared In the villain community
So when Nightwing and Red Robin team up people in the hero and villain community are terrified
Nightwing although is more responsible when his baby siblings are around that responsibility gets canceled out because Red Robin’s hero worship has him doing his BEST plans so he can impress Nightwing
And Nightwing is doing his craziest stunts to impress Red Robin (Dick is totally aware of Tim’s hero worship and thinks it adorable)
It leads to the most batshit (ha) crazy plans happening and goons will literally let them go past whatever they are guarding so they don’t feel the wrath of two of the scariest robins
And it only gets worse when red hood gets involved…
I remember seeing someone say they couldn't believe the oldest dream was 15, he had to be like 12 or younger for them to really feel bad for him
and that was really funny to me, because that's practically kim dokja's exact thought process... not beating the fragment allegations
some favorite moments from orv read :)c
