I've seen a lot of people writing Danny as a space ancient and Dan and Dani as ghosts with moon and sun cores, being sort of parts, versions of Danny and therefore weaker. Now, consider: Dan and Dani are both powerful ghosts with really cool cores and stuff but Danny is just some guy™

Dan, who came from an alternate timeline and is kind of from the future but also not, is Clockwork's apprentice and will eventually become an ancient of time. He probably only agreed to have some lessons with Clockwork to understand better what happened to him, but he enjoys his apprenticeship now.

Dani, with her love of travelling, loves seeing all the different places the world offers to her, and that includes space and different planets and maybe even parallel universes, and she accidentally ends up being an apprentice of the space ancient. For now she's probably a baby ancient of freedom or something like that, but she might become an ancient of space in the future.

We can also have something like Dan having a core of destruction or Dani being the Speed Force if you want it to be dcxdp, or any headcanon of yours about their cool powers.

And then there's Danny. And yeah, everyone knows that he's super powerful, but also he's just some guy.

It can go different routes. Does everyone know that Danny is just Danny? Or do they think that with siblings (well, technically a clone and an alternate version, but whatever) so powerful, he must be even stronger? Is Danny actually something terrifyingly eldritch and ancient and strong, almost a god, but he just doesn't know himself? Or is he just really some guy?

Now, because it's obvious that I have a dcxdp brainrot, have a regular "JL summons/meets a powerful ghost" but its Dan and Dani, and they keep mentioning their original/brother who won a fight against them at some point. The JL is very concerned about Dan and Dani's godlike powers, and they can't imagine what Danny is like. And then they meet him (in his human form), and it's just a young adult in casual clothes, very friendly and helpful, with no evident powers. Imagine the confusion. Imagine Dan and Dani, radiating power, in their eldritch ghost forms, admitting that fighting Danny for real is the dumbest thing to do and not even they would succeed... And then there's Danny is jeans and silly t-shirt, waving shyly.

I've had this pose ref saved for a while and the Superman set photos just gave off the same energy 👉🏻👈🏻

The reference is this photo of Katharine Hepburn as Antiope and Colin Keith-Johnston as Theseus in the 1932 play 'The Warrior's Husband' (and I'd love for people to turn into a draw your otp meme pls pls pls this pose is so good)

And also, of course, the Superman (2025) set photos

It must be nice not having to bottle everything up.

Fanfiction is so goated actually

No monetary incentive, just writing in one's free time. Some incentive for like kudos and comments, because who doesn't want to hear that someone else enjoyed what they wrote. Just writing a story that is good and/or enjoyable, no real-life pressure to keep it going because god forbid you and other people are depending on it financially.

Writing a story because you want to write a good story, so you can write what they want the way you want, at a pace that is realistic for you, with exactly the plot pacing you want there to be.

the left’s obsession with moral perfection is one of the reasons why the right has been able to rise everywhere during the past decade or so

I think the twins had the potential to be the best borderlands antagonists if they were handled properly. Like if gearbox pulled more from reality it could have been a really interesting concept about parasocial relationships, the dangers of blurring the lines between online and reality, and how idolization can turn someone into a faux god

Blahh just a vent but...

A while back my therapist referred me to this catalogue of services offered by my country's Mental Health Association that include household services like organizing and cleaning, offered directly through the association at a reduced rate compared to the usual cost of those things. And I've got various psychiatric conditions and chronic illness that contributes to me really struggling to manage that stuff on my own, and my place has frankly been in a ridiculous state since moving. So I contacted them and went through this email back-and-forth over the course of like a month, to eventually get paired with a person who is essentially a case worker.

And so I again emailed back and forth with that person about the services I was hoping to access and what my needs were. And they emailed back with... links to two local cleaning businesses in my city?? Saying that I could look at the business websites for their rates??

Like... sorry, I fucking know I can do that. LOL. I'm poor and disabled and was trying to access the services that your organization's catalogue said you offered..??? Like those cheaper ones specifically geared to people who are mentally ill and disabled??? Two months of back and forth and waiting, and they send me two links I could have just googled myself for full-rate regular cleaning businesses..???? ????? I don't get it hahahah.

And like, the support worker person seems very nice and I'm not blaming them, because I assume this is something that is more due to organizational issues than an individual worker's inadequacy or something. But ugh.

I’ve never done artfight and i probably never will.

^my honest reaction to the possibility of me ever doing artfight 😭

[theshadowrealmitself]

Been obsessing over Diana x Rick au scenarios where they get together, for some reason I’ve been really leaning into them knowing each other growing up, parting ways, and then meeting and dating in the future

Diane and Rick being across the street neighbors who have huge crushes on each other

They never end up confessing to each other because Rick feels like he has to “prove” himself to Diane before he can confess to each other (stemming from fear of rejection) so he wants to set out and really make something of himself

Diane never confesses because she has abandonment issues and everyone knows that genius Rick Sanchez isn’t going to stay in their dinky hometown, and she doesn’t believe that it’s better to have loved and lost than to have never loved, losing him after having him would devastate her

So Rick gets accepted into his dream college while Diane stays in their hometown, knowing she’s going to remember him for the rest of her life but not expecting him to ever return, just to one day get surprised when Rick returns, as was always his goal

That’s the basic outline I’ve been using for all scenarios, just tweaking it a bit based on my mood, but somehow it’s devolved into:

Rick coming back and finding out he never properly sealed away the lab in his house and some of his specimens have gotten out and it’s had far reaching consequences for the town

Diane’s been having fun with it, because it’s more gravity falls level of issues than like an undead apocalypse, but Rick’s responding like Frankenstein seeing his monster actually move around

Life update (GOOD)<3

Heyy all! Just quickly dropping in with a lil note because I feel like I’ve been less focused on the writing-front as of recent, and more inactive here in general :’)

Thank you to everyone who’s been commenting on my writing and/or left me messages and prompts this year and recently, I absolutely adore you all. I have started many a draft based on the prompts I’ve gotten, and there’s plenty more I still want to get to. Thank you for sharing your ideas with me, they genuinely help me with motivation and writing (even though I haven’t managed to finish anything substantial in a while…)

I always say it but I really just appreciate you all a lot<3

As to why I have been more inactive responding or writing/updating in general, well…

Life has just been really, really good lately? Consistently. All the time.

I’m starting to tentatively trust that the worst is well over with my health stuff/treatment, and I’m feeling so much better compared to where I started that it baffles me daily?? I kinda feel like I have a new brain - and a new life. As in, I feel fully Alive for the first time since I was a kid, pretty much.

I have so much energy. / I just go and do things now. / I might actually be an extrovert??? (I’m having a culture shock rediscovering my own damn post-chronic health issue personality lol) / Anxiety and depression, who are they? Turns out I can feel a healthy amount of sad or upset, and it’s not all consuming. / I feel anger now! And it's great lmao! / Even bad days feel like decent days compared to my past days / I have always been interested in other people, but now I have the energy to show it better and engage, without burning out before I even open my yapper. / I feel like I’m connecting with people so much easier and better, and I’m having such a good time!!! / I’m actively trying to come up with new things to do with all the time and energy I now have. I’m still figuring this one out, because yeah, it’s a culture shock, after spending my whole adult life actively avoiding things just because I didn’t have the energy for anything (Tell me your hobbies and interests!! Indoor-outdoor-solo-social??) / I feel grounded in my own body and feel present / I finally feel a sense of ‘Future’ and I'm able look forward to things, instead of being in a constant survival mode and feeling stuck in it. / I’ve started to truly FEEL things, not just think things. I’ve started to want things. And not want things. And like things. And dislike things. Anything but the mild-indifference I am/was used to. / I can get through a work day without falling a sleep. Hell, I did a 13 hour shift the other week and still had the want and the energy to go for a run, after?! I felt possessed and a bit feral with power that day lmao! / AND SO MUCH MORE and BETTER and AAAAAAA 

I tear up regularly because I suddenly out of nowhere realise ‘wow, what the fuck, I feel so great??’

I really thought ‘better’ wasn’t in the cards for me after living literal decades feeling ‘not-good-at-all’. 

But mann, I think this is already better than the better I thought I’d never get to feel xx
