made this back when i still used medi bang but i still find it very cute
It's so funny that Luo Binghe asks for love advice and Mobei is the first to pipe up with "beat him three times a day"
which definitely got all the other demons in the room thinking: "and how's that working out for you Lord Desperate To Get Fucked By Your Servant"
Only to get shocked when Shang Qinghua advises Junshang to "be pathetic"
Like imagine watching your colleague fail to land a date with his assistant for forever only for the assistant to reveal he's being trying to land a date with your colleague this whole time
They're so stupid
I started watching dexter and it’s genuinely wild shit. His inner monologue will be like ‘this would be considered a kind action, if I had a heart. But unfortunately, I feel nothing inside. My chest is an empty cage, with no warmth inside it’ and he’s doing some shit like saving a puppy that almost got run over or something
Because of the fact that Marvel debuted in the 1950s, people thought he was all of the -ics and -isms.
Marvel: *staring at a gay couple making out* “Ew.”
Robin!Tim: “Woah, man.”
Marvel: “What?”
Robin!Tim: “Look, I understand things were different for you back then, but times have changed. Being gay is accepted nowadays.”
Marvel: “I thought being happy was always accepted? Was being happy not good at some point?”
Robin!Tim: “No- uh being a homosexual is accepted nowadays.”
Marvel: “Oh. Well, that’s just dandy! All their protesting and fighting made a real difference, huh?”
Robin!Tim: “Yes!” *pauses* “You sound surprisingly happy about that.”
Marvel: “Why wouldn’t I be? Those people were treated like scum and were forced to protest basic rights. Isn’t that a good thing?”
Robin!Tim: “Yes, but you just said ew to them.”
Marvel: “Why wouldn’t I…? Those guys were full tongue kissing in public. It was disgusting. Like two dogs, lapping at each other’s faces.” *shivers*
or
Marvel: “Wait… So you were a girl that became a boy. Why?”
Trans Person: “Well, I just wanted to be one.”
Marvel: “Oh.” *stares a for a moment* “Well, you certainly did a good job. I wasn’t able to tell you were ever a girl at some point.”
Trans Person: “That’s kinda what the testosterone was for.”
Marvel: “Testosterone?”
Trans Person: “It’s something I take to become a boy.”
Marvel: “Wow… People have really come so far.” *sounds so amazed*
or
Female Hero: “What? Are you looking down on me?”
Marvel: “No-”
Female Hero: “I’ll have you know that women have come far from the lowly housewives you might’ve seen them as fifty odd years ago.”
Marvel: “Yeah… I know. You know I’ve worked with Bulletgirl, right? And Mary. All I did was comment about how you were being a little reckless, which you are being you’ve thrown and missed multiple cars at a singular villain. Why are you insulting housewives all of a sudden?” *sounds extremely concerned*
" If Bernard ever wants to hear MY theory, my address is These Legs Are Open Avenue "
Danny had a problem. If it was a big one, he couldn't tell yet but he was partially sure Clockwork was at fault for this. Or at least he wanted to blame his ghostly godparent who most likely just wanted to cause some chaos for entertainment with the pretext of helping Danny. Which was a very likely reason for why Danny had a problem right now.
As it was the former Fenton now Fenton-Wayne boy was pacing his room in the Manor trying to think what is next step should be, because as it was his 'new' family –Did new still apply if he was living with them for a little more than a year now? – knew him under three different Identities now. And to top it all off they were not aware that the three identities were all pretty much connected as one.
For one. His family, knew him as Danny, the space obsessed kid, who became a meta because of his ectobiology science obsessed parents and his teenager recklessness. A kid that was actually a genius if you gave him enough time for school and could make you anything out of a ancients be damed toaster. That was the Danny they mainly knew. The Kid they took in, let in on the family business and then chose, to the happiness of Alfred and dismay of some of his 'new' siblings, normal life over vigilante life.
Then they knew Phantom. A dead ghost hero that was helping the Justice League and Young Justice to help them deal with the aftermath of the huge fallout caused by the GIW, Guys in White or rather Ghost Investigation Ward. And while Danny didn't know he had apparently worked with nearly his entire family and that time he knew it now. Which was awkward because he had pretty much pestered one of his elder brothers about his condition until Red Hood, aka Jason, let Phantom help him. Ancient, things might get awkward if that secret is lifted. He had done a lot of things Batman, Nightwing, Red Hood, Red Robin, Orphan and Robin had scowled him for. Thankfully they only thought of him as a dead teen hero and didn't know what a Halfa was. So they didn't make the connection, and he had yet to meet Signal, aka Duke as Phantom.
Now came the third identity, which totally did not happen by his choice. After all officially he hadn't accepted the throne yet and would only get it once he was dead dead not half dead. To bad ancient texts don't care about formalities. So when trouble hit the fan really hard the Justice League Dark had the bright Idea of getting some other worldly help. Which in other words was summoning the Ghost King. Oh boy, was it fun to learn that way that Danny could get summoned against his will. Clockwork did not give him that warning when he told him about the future of his afterlife. But best of all? Oh he doesn't get summoned as Phantom which would have made things maybe a bit easier, oh no. Life wasn't easy. He got someone's in some as a super weird black-green mass of a formless eltrich body with sharp teeth, claws and glowing green eyes with no pupils or irises. Hell Danny even scared himself when he saw his own reflection in a window and he didn't have a single idea how to change his form.
Let it be known that Danny acted then on purpose like he didn't know a single person in that room he had been summoned in right out of his bed and that he wasn't staring at his adoptive father like he needed help who interpreted his stare as the ghost king sizing him up. And Danny knows this because Dick had a good laugh about that at the dinner table with the rest of his siblings.
Now a smart person would probably come clean to his family and explain to them the three identities they knew him under and how they are connected.
To bad Danny wasn't 'smart' when it came to things like that. No in his panic and newfound awkwardness of the situation of what he had done on separate occasions with his identity as Phantom AND Ghost King, he decided to keep acting like he didn't knew them personally like the truely does. Really how hard could that be? Besides he liked the way his family threaten him now. He didn't want to get threaten differently because he was half dead, or a Ghost King. He liked that his family was treating him as plain old Danny who had an obsession with space and was their quirkily little brother with powers.
So that gave him even more incentive to keep the act up. Even if it was hard at times, especially if he got summoned out of nowhere. It would be easier if he could get a hang of the duplication power. He even had played with the thought of getting one of his ghost rogues to help but his family was perceptive. Maybe not perceptive enough to realise that all three identities were one and the same person but they would notice if Danny acted just slightly different or if Phantom was more of then usually. But somehow he still managed to keep it up.
But it was the hard way that he learned, Danny was bad at doing the 'talking' and realized that maybe Jazz was right and he was going to slip up one day causing huge misunderstandings like right now.
He stared down at Batman and Nightwing in his Ghost King form. Red Hood had his guns pulled on him, Wonder Woman and Superman looked like they where going to try to pull back Batman any second now while Nightwing, maybe at first was going to try to calm down the bat but Danny was pretty sure the eldest bat kid was now fiercely glaring at him too. He was also pretty sure the only reason he didn't see Red Robin or Robin threaten him too was because their super friends were somehow holding them back. For their own or his safety he doesn't know at the moment.
Because apparently the Bats did not fear fighting otherworldly beings to protect one of their own.
"What did you just say about Danny Fentons death?!" Batman grunted out and Danny just knew his adoptive father was glaring at him. Ancients Danny cursed his brain to mouth filter right now. As he had the collective hero scene before him staring at his Ghost King form. Would this be a good or bad moment to come completely clean or maybe he should find some kind of philosophical bullshit of 'All things death belong to him'....
Jazz had known the dangers of living alone in Gotham. A lone woman in this crime filled city. Were a person could get mugged or kidnapped as soon as they stepped out the door
She had taken precautions when she moved into her apartment. A pocket knife that was currently in a pair jeans on the top of the hamper. An aint-creep stick by the door. A gun in her bedroom safe. Weekly self-defense classes and visits to the gun range.
None of that had prevented her from freezing when an intruder slid open her window.
Part of her mind protested at the ridiculous of her freezing interror. She'd gone ghost hunting many times with her family taking down eldrich horrors that would give even the bravest soul nightmares. But that was with her family.
She didn't have her Mom here, instilling confidence. Nor her Dad giving her ease. No Danny to fill her with protectiveness either.
This time, she was alone, quietly staring down the dark figure trespassing into her home. The book in her hand slowly lowered onto the blanket, covering her lap. Her other hand clutched tight to the back of the worn couch she was curled up on.
She needed to move. Arm herself. The kitchen knives were the closest. She could get to them.
She just need to move!
MOVE!
But she didn't. Limbs locked as the figure straightened and closed the window.
Soft light glinted off the red helmet covering the figure's face as he turned around before freezing - his sight finally making contact with Jazz's stricken stare. He looked away, head turning in a way that suggested he was taking stock of his surroundings before tilting his head back and letting out a curse.
"This is not my apartment." He murmured before turning back to the window. He jiggle the frame in an attempt to open it. And jiggled it again. The third attempt was even more frantic.
The window was stuck.
Jazz slowly blinked. Her mind came to the conclusion that she wasn't in danger and that it was more than likely Red Hood, who had broken into her apartment and was trying to leave.
Should she go over and help? Jazz shifted, the blanket sliding off her lap enough to show the Red Hood theme pajamas bottoms she was wearing. Jazz quickly grabbed the blanket, repositioning it to cover her pants. That would be so embarrassing if he saw.
A snort came at the thought. With it, laughter bubbled in her throat, and she couldn't help but cackle at the absurdity of the situation. Red Hood was trying to run away after mistakenly entering her apartment, yet she was embarrassed over her clothes.
Red Hood let out a frustrated noise. The window hadn't moved even an inch.
"Just," Jazz said between giggles, pointing, "use the front door."
I want to point out how the final fight in Epic is not in song 38 but song 40.
How after Odysseus became "the monster" he then, was the last boss to fight
And Penelope fights him.
Because she fights for her husband, for the man beyond the trauma, for the man WITH the trauma, for the man she will always love and will wait forever if necessary.
She makes him angry, he gets furious and Penelope is the only character so far who matches that fury and tames it.
And Penelope wins.
She defeats the "monster".
And all it's left... it's just a man. Her man.
