Descendants textposts that sort of explain the fucked up plot of this franchise.
Bonus: the thesis of the entire trilogy--
Part 18
I want to cut my hair like Greta so badly, but I don’t know the name of the hairstyle so I can’t find any irl pic references 😭😭😭
And this right here is precisely why Young Justice is still so beloved to people even decades later and why people were justifiably upset when the Young Justice show kept on screwing everything up from the start.
Young Justice (1998) #55
I made these for a Secret Santa gift exchange over on the BatPham Community discord server. They were made for Strawberry, based off a prompt they provided! The BatPham Community server is a fandom server for a mixture of Batfamily and Danny Phantom content. (Batfamily, as in Batman's various family members... there's quite a few.)

Don't Think About It (3)
Don’t think of Odalia being willing to abandon her children to save her own skin
Don’t think of the kids running out of food and giving the last bits to the younger kids
Don’t think of these kids, abandoned in a world-changing without them, trying to raise other kids
Don’t think of the kids comforting the younger kids, so sad and scared, unable to understand why their parents have left them
Don’t think about Edric’s body never being quite right after all that’s happened
Don’t think about his wrists clicking or locking or how he limps when it rains
Don’t think of Emira painstakingly bandaging him, her hands shaking horribly, thinking of if her baby sister was hurt just as bad or worse
Don’t think of Boscha, watching her loved ones be possessed, and suddenly being in charge of everyone else
Don’t think of how lonely and abandoned she felt
Don’t think of how the kids have the weight of the world on their shoulders
Don’t think of how out of control Hunter and Willow felt
Don’t think of how tired Luz is
Don’t think of how worried Amity has been
Don’t think of how the weight of all the secrets he keeps was slowly crushing Gus
Don’t think of Camila realizing for the first time how out of their element her kids were in her home
Don’t think of how betrayed the Collector felt
Roxas fractured Riku's left wrist during their fight in Days, when Riku sought to capture him and wake Sora from his sleep. This is why in KH2 and DDD he wears the wrap around it. Roxas fractures it with Oblivion, which is ironic, since Oblivion represents Sora's forgotten memories of Riku. [I'm pretty convinced it represents the forgotten memory of his death, and a promise they made as children, specifically]
During the DDD intro rendition of Riku and Sora's fight with Xemnas, you can see it is clearly bothering him. He looks at it and flexes it, before Xemnas punts him. This blow appears to be across the face/left shoulder, but it's not really clear. Probably also hurt super bad.
After this, when Xemnas is about to finish off Sora, Riku deflects the blow and pushes Sora to safety, leaving him open to this blow from Xemnas.
Which I believe also fractured the left side of his hip. This is why he had so much trouble walking after the battle, and had to be helped by Sora.
I find Riku's walk very stiff, especially compared to other characters. And I might be imagining it, but I feel like he has an ever so slight limp, barely there at all. Fractures around joints can cause stiffness and arthritis when they don't set properly.
When Riku stands to protect Sora, he presents the left side of his body foremost. His most damaged side.
When the darkness begins consuming his body, the camera again intentionally focuses on his left leg and left hand, and you can see them falter slightly. Especially his hand, you can see it contort. Riku is actually in a shit ton of pain here. That's why Sora gasped and reached out to him, he could see it hurting him.
Riku has physical handicaps, his left wrist and left hip, that both originated from him protecting Sora. Not to mention how he stood there and literally let the darkness eat him alive trying to protect him.
So I want to point out the significance of this scene at the end of KH2.
Upon seeing Kairi, in his joy Sora immediately seems to forget about Riku's injuries, which came from... Riku protecting him. Riku is shown growing distant in the background, walking slowly, struggling, being left behind by Sora. But he's happy that Sora is happy, and safe, because that's what's most important to him. I imagine however, that he was also incredibly sad watching Sora run to Kairi, knowing that Sora wanted to be next to her at that moment rather than him, even though Riku had suffered so much for his sake.
The way the shot is framed, as Sora runs toward Kairi, he blocks out the sun completely.
If he had stopped, turned around, and looked at Riku, he would have been looking directly at the light.

Don't think about
don't think about Alador not knowing where any of his kids are
don't think about Edric and Emira gripping onto each other as their world falls apart around them with no idea where the rest of their family is, if they're even safe
don't think about the fact they might not even be together
don't think about Darius feeling the pain of the draining spell but all he can think about is the sixteen-year-old kid he cares about despite himself feeling the same pain
don't think about all the other children with coven sigils, in so so much pain as the man everyone trusts betrays them
don't think of Gus' dad learning no one knows where his twelve-year-old son is
don't think of people running for cover as their world falls apart and rebuilds around them
don't think about the ones who couldn't get away in time
don't think of King, so young and so scared, alone with the collector
don't think about Willow's dads patiently waiting for their daughter to come home and their bone-deep grief when she doesn't
don't think about the twins screaming and wailing when Alador tells them he doesn't know where Amity is and the last time he saw her, she was going to fight Belos, the most dangerous man on the Isle
don't think about Eda realizing that despite her best efforts in the end she couldn't protect either of her kids
don't think about Eda reuniting with Lilith and both of their faces falling realizing the other doesn't have the kids
don't think about Camila opening the doors and being so relieved to see her daughter but so worried when she sees how tired and sad all the kids huddled together at her front door are
don't think about the kids quietly but surely patching each other up, older and much more exhausted than they should be
don't think about the fact none of them are going to be to get a good night's sleep for a while
don't think about the kids huddled together mourning people that may be alive because they just don't know
There's a lot of angles to SoRiku but my favorite is that they are children who were content to live in a dark cold hell forever, as long as they were together...
Math is really tiring, im so glad i finally get to relax and do some knitting and crochet and i oh god oh my what the fuck
I genuinely love how in batfam fanfics….
Dick is like: little D (Damian), Timmy Tim, little wing (Jason) I’m on my way my baby bros!!!
And then in canon….
Dick: *perpetually perturbed by his codependent siblings but knows he’ll never not answer cause who else is gonna pull their dumbassses out the gutter*
Wanting a remake of a film that completely ignored the source material and is hated: completely fair, everyone is on your side, will likely happen
Wanting a remake for a film that completely ignored the source material but is widely beloved: insane, never going to happen, no one even cares
Look I’m just saying if you don’t write young justice as ride or die-down for murder for each other at a moments notice you’re writing them wrong
when the two least affectionate guys ever start dating, their love language becomes acknowledging each other's presence
I GOT A CUSTOM BOUND RED ROBIN 2009 RUN FOR A RELATIVELY GOOD PRICE SO I DIDNT HAVE TO PAY THE $10 SHIPPING FOR EVERY COMIC !!!! IM SO HAPPY
Is it worth it to spend $10 on shipping on one tiny little comic but it’s Red Robin 2009
Tysm!! I really appreciate that 😊😊 I have quite a few danger force fics if you ever want to check out more of them!
Danger Force Head canons
(If you recognize these it’s bc I posted them before I accidentally DELETED MY ENTIRE BLOG😭)
Bose calls Henry to talk about his parental problems a lot
Mika does her own hair and occasionally does Miles’ too
Sometimes Miles and Mika have to sleep in the same room to ensure they’re both still there and okay
Miles has multiple places only he knows about and that he occasionally teleports to just to get some time away
Bose occasionally has trouble setting boundaries leading to the others’ unintentionally hurting him
In the opposite direction Chapa occasionally preemptively sets too many boundaries causing the others to accidentally exclude her
Miles runs late to things a lot of the time because he constantly thinks, “It’ll only take me a second to get there!” even if he’s meant to already be there
Mika drinks tea almost every night to soothe her throat preemptively
Chapa makes most of her own clothes but Miles can sew better than she can
Mika struggles to meet the expectations she has set for herself, often leading to burnout and breakdowns
Miles often struggles with how his interpersonal values conflict with beating up criminals all the time
Due to going to school together and fighting crime together all four kids quickly become codependent
Chapa sometimes has to spend hours or days to herself just to get away from all the stress being a superhero causes
Bose was the first of them to get seriously hurt on a mission, forcing him on bed rest for a week, and off active field duty for at least a month
It was the first time the others really realized that one day this job may kill them
A few villains retired after Kid Danger “died” and more are extra careful with how they treat Danger Force, just in case
As the kids get older they spend a lot of time making up on the schoolwork they missed when they were younger
As the kids get older they get more and more disillusioned with the whole superhero gimmick
They all quit being sidekicks like Henry did although at different times
Miles quits first, deciding he’s ready for a more peaceful approach
Chapa quits next, feeling constrained by Ray and like she’s ready to be an adult
Bose leaves after her, more peacefully than the other two but not without at least one screaming match
Mika lasts the longest but eventually has to leave to go to college and live her life
Ray often wonders if taking in more sidekicks was truly a good idea
Schwoz loves the kids as though they’re his own
He often gives them money (that he may or may not have taken from Ray) to allow them to go out like normal teenagers
If Bose overuses his powers he can get migraines occasionally resulting in nose bleeds and on the worst days nausea
The first time it happened he threw up and fainted
It was terrifying for everyone to witness
If Mika overuses her powers she loses her voice for about a week and can’t super scream for even longer
The overuse will make her throat swell as well, causing her to have difficulty breathing
It’s extremely painful and the only thing the others can do is give her medicine and make her soothing drinks
When Miles overuses his powers he gets extreme vertigo.
He’s also often nauseous making it near impossible to move.
It’s disconcerting and no one's ever sure how long it will last.
When Chapa overuses her powers her hands and other extremities go numb
She can still summon lightning but she has no control over the output or direction it goes leading it to be dangerous for everyone around her
She usually just has to carry around insulation gloves and wait for her hands to regain feeling
I wrote this one about a year ago? Two now? It’s not Bomika but it has all the team being concerned about Bose!
couldn’t win, fighting, bleeding, losing, and now I’m sick of it

It just works 😭 and it’d be so goddamn funny like Superman walks in on Kon kissing Tim and has to system restart bc 1-kon likes boys??? (He wore a leather jacket and had earrings in the 90’s ,,, he likes boys) 2-wasn’t he kissing Cassie last week??? Flash walks in on bart and Cassie doing Something and is So Confused bc he swears he saw Bart and Tim holding hands last week Wonder Woman walks in on Tim and Cassie snuggled on the couch together and has to do a system reboot bc she knows for a fact Cassie and Kon kissed like 2 days ago
Look I’m just saying canonically pretty much every pairing that could’ve happened DID happen in young justice and it would Make more sense for them to be a polycule-

I think the world needs more positivity, so what are your funniest comic moments?
you have no idea what you have let upon the world, I have way too many comic panels saved,, brace yourself
Red Tornado: You are all insane and I want to study you under a microscope so I’m your babysitter now
Robin:
Impulse:
Superboy: Hey what the fuck
the fact that tim, bart & kon literally annoyed red tornado out of hibernation is still the funniest shit to me and i think about it daily
On one hand, Young Justice is kind of neglected by the actual superheroes that should be looking out for them in a lot of crucial ways and very much failed by the adults around them
But on the other hand Red Tornado straight up hosts a parent-teacher conference where their respective legal guardians all show up, barring Batman who’s in traffic so Nightwing fills in instead because Robin’s dad does not know he’s a vigilante which is objectively hilarious
pov: you just told your bestie how you accidentally killed your boyfriends dad and lied to the public about it
the thing I love most about the “Bruce and Jason are both TANKS” supremacy is that it means, in all likelihood, that Nightwing, Red Hood and Batman went on a joint patrol together at least once and some out of towner goon, in a panic, called Nightwing — all 5’10 180 lbs of him — the “skinny one.”
Ok these tags are so sweet and genuinely do make me feel better tysm <333
Is it worth it to spend $10 on shipping on one tiny little comic but it’s Red Robin 2009
