Eternal Bonds: Tim and Danny’s Infinite Realms Marriage

In the Infinite Realms, marriage is an unparalleled commitment. Unlike the mortal world, where love can be fleeting and easily undone, marriage in the Realms is something far more sacred. It’s not just about vows or ceremonies—it’s about merging souls, creating a bond that not even the vast stretches of time can sever. The very idea of marriage in the Realms is rare, almost mythical, because it requires two beings to love each other so profoundly that they’re willing to bind their very existence to one another.

For the ghosts and entities that reside in this realm, eternity isn’t just a poetic idea—it’s a reality. Time is meaningless when you’re no longer alive, when your very essence is bound to the afterlife. And because of this, relationships are viewed through a different lens. There’s no such thing as divorce, no “time apart.” Once a couple is bound, their souls are intertwined forever. To dedicate your entire being—past, present, and future—to another means accepting that their joys, sorrows, triumphs, and failures will be yours too. It’s a partnership where breaking the bond is simply impossible.

It’s why marriage is such a rare occurrence in the Realms. The ghosts, who have already lived one life and often seen the frailty of mortal promises, don’t enter into this kind of bond lightly. It’s only for the strongest of loves, for the most steadfast of commitments. Because once you marry in the Infinite Realms, that bond holds through eternity itself.

And yet, despite the gravity of it all, Tim and Danny find themselves willing to make that very commitment. Tim, a mortal tied to a world where things end, where nothing lasts forever, steps into the unknown. His love for Danny is so deep, so unshakable, that he agrees to a traditional Infinite Realms marriage. He knows full well the weight of it—he’s not just vowing to love Danny in this life, but in every life after. In swearing to this bond, Tim is offering his entire being to Danny, for now and all of eternity.

For Danny, this choice means even more. As a halfa, he exists between two worlds, knowing both the mortality of the living and the permanence of the ghostly afterlife. His love for Tim is powerful enough that he’s willing to make this eternal commitment, knowing that there’s no one else in any world—mortal, ghostly, or beyond—he would rather be tied to. For Danny, the bond is as natural as breathing. It’s a connection that deepens their relationship in a way that transcends the limitations of their two worlds.

Their marriage isn’t just a declaration of love—it’s a merging of souls, a binding that makes them two parts of the same whole. It overwhelms them with the sense of safety and belonging that they’ve both craved in their lives. In each other, they find the kind of love that doesn’t just endure life’s difficulties but thrives beyond them. Their bond ties them together forever in a way that no one else could understand, but to Tim and Danny, it’s everything.

They are each other’s home. And in the Infinite Realms, there is no greater honor, no stronger connection, than to be bound by love for all of eternity.

Help I’m dwelling on Heian-kyo’s mountain of missed potential again, agghhh it frustrates me cause the good parts are REALLY good but they just didn’t follow through…

Danzou is the one who has been most personally hurt by Limbo and it’s the chapter where she finally gets closure with him by being the one to kill him (which I’m so happy it was her who does!) but then it feels like she’s forgotten for most of it even though it should have been a Danzou-centric chapter… when they remember her it’s good stuff (her aggression towards Limbo, the whole opening segment, getting to deal the final blow etc.) it’s just she doesn’t do much during the whole middle/end part.

And the opening even looked like it was going to be focused on her… it connects well with her interlude, in which Limbo in his obsession with her was restoring her memories so he could devastate her more thoroughly and take pleasure in her agony… he told it to her face that he’d return to do that and would kill Kotarou in front of her (so like what he was doing in Shimousa though he can’t make Danzou herself do it without control over her body like he had then). And then we see only she and Kotarou are being allowed in!! And they both even heard the squirming of bugs when the singularity appeared! Sure Kotarou ends up being blocked but based on Danzou’s speculation about him acting as a decoy so they could safely arrive, I wonder if that’s simply cause Limbo intended to mess with the rayshift more (separate them or something?) but he stopped that and otherwise would have been allowed.

And then they even go on to emphasize that this singularity is literally just for Limbo to mess with them, HE EVEN SUMMONED HIS FAVORITE TOY and yet they hardly follow through with this… all the pieces were In place, yet where was the mocking of Danzou? The making her suffer? Between the interlude and the opening of the chapter, how do you have this much setup then fumble it so badly?? I swear he got to more directly mess with people in 5.2 than here (Prometheus-Hephaestus, Europa, KADOC) despite not having the sort of fixation on them he does with Danzou. Shimousa was so good with following through with its setup, I wish Heian-kyo did too… like we have Danzou shown to be working for Limbo but we see her grow attached to our party to the point she decides to betray him, so you’re wondering oh no what’s going to happen to her when he finds out..? And sure enough, he’s there waiting for her, mocks her, tells her how he broke her, forces her to fight her new companions (including her son who she remembers at the end) then blows her up, killing her, it’s so satisfying! And yet he doesn’t even do a fraction of that in Heian-kyo despite the situation set up by him… (also I’m still salty about the lack of his shikigami bugs being used on her come onnn I really thought that was the direction they were going by introducing those)

It’s just… overall they had so much suggesting this was going to have a lot of focus on her relationship with Limbo and finally getting to take him down and make him pay for all he put her through, and then they barely have her in the story… her getting to kill him was perfect but it should have been preceded by her getting to play an active role in the main story, and at least having the two of them talk more?? He’s obsessed with her to the point of going through all this effort with her servant self after Shimousa and she has a clear grudge against him for it that stands out yet they just… barely talk. Or do much of anything with each other…

Ichiro stood in the softly lit living room, his heart racing with a mix of nerves and excitement. Today marked a special milestone: Musuu’s first birthday celebration since she had awakened from her long coma and reunited with her boys. The brothers had transformed the house into a warm, inviting space filled with photos of happier times, twinkling lights, and a cake that Jiro had somehow managed to decorate without completely wrecking. Ichiro glanced at his younger brothers, feeling a swell of pride. He knew how much this day meant to all of them, especially to Musuu, who had fought so hard to come back to them. “We’re finally together again,” he thought, determination shining in his eyes.

As Jiro fidgeted with the balloons, trying to tie them to the chairs while simultaneously cracking jokes, Saburo was unusually quiet, his face a mix of concentration and concern as he carefully arranged his handmade gifts—a collection of poems and drawings he had poured his heart into. Ichiro caught Saburo’s eye and gave him an encouraging nod. “Mom deserves to see how much we’ve grown,” he thought, remembering all the sacrifices she had made for them. The door creaked open, and Ichiro held his breath, signaling to Jiro and Saburo. And just before Musuu stepped inside, the younger boys let out an elated, “HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOM!” and Ichiro felt a rush of emotions flood through him. “Welcome home, Mom,” he whispered, ready to embrace her with the love and warmth they had all longed to share. This wasn’t just a birthday; it was a celebration of family, hope, and a new beginning.

( rraaaaahhh!! ❤️yukiiiii! yuki i didn't knoww! 😭😭 i'm sorry i missed the date & that this is two days late!! but listen, i ADORE✨ MUSUU TO BITS & it goes without saying that my boys do too! they would DIE for her!! ty for creating such a delightful oc! you are amazing! and i'm sorry for rambling lol i just really love this family sm & i'm enjoying all of our silly/heartwarming interactions. it's a huge part of why i stay on this site! )

Oh!

Musuu gasps, eyes wide as she stops and takes everything in. From the decorations in the room to the presents and cake to her darling sons who planned such a wonderful thing. To think that they can all take her by surprise like this...

She knew today is her birthday, of course. It's hard not to know when she's been swept away by a certain someone's festivities since midnight. But to know that her sons had remembered and prepared something for this day... why, it's enough to bring tears to her eyes.

In fact, she can't quite hold her tears back, raw happiness and affection budding forth and spilling out as clear liquid. What a sight she must be, crying so obviously from such a heartfelt gift?

"Thank you so much, my darling trio. I'm home." Her gaze travels the room once again, lingering on the photos she spots. Ah, and there it is! The perfect idea for this precious moment to be forever preserved in time.

"Would you all join me for a family picture?"

HOO BOI. i desperately want to write volumes about this topic alone but ill stick to a tag rant because is have so much studying lol.

demeter they could never make me hate you. you were imo the only sensible person in the myth(s) actually and a good mum. fuck u zeus

The story of Hades and Persephone isn't an abduction romance, or even a tragedy of not being able to be in two places at the same time. It's about how fucking wild it would be to have a mother who gives a shit about whether you're dead or alive, and whether you are happy.

[maximusboltaqon]

so i found out about bizzare adventures and how triton has a mini-comic in bizzare adventures #28 and so OBVIOUSLY i had to go read bizzare adventures for this, like, 6 pages of triton. and now i HAVE to talk about how triton was in a comic for like three entire minutes in the 80s.

considering how little triton gets personality-wise, i really like that this opens with actual triton lore!! "seeker by nature" !!! how he wishes others could see the ocean like he does!!

now that i think about it, im kind of surprised triton hasnt been used for anti-pollution messaging more often? or like, ever, afaik, other than this? and even here, it very quickly stops being about the oil spill that nearly kills triton. i know namor comics deal w that kind of thing (on occasion? often? no idea i have. never read a namor comic 😳) but i think this is also very much a triton avenue. esp since inhumans already cant breathe the standard air on earth, i def think you could make a good triton comic out of how humans are destroying the planet (sorry this post got darker than i intended we're moving on now)

i really love how triton looks in this!! it's not *that* different from his usual green-man design, and it could very much just be an art style, but im a big big fan of Fish Triton. his uncanny appearance is like my favorite ever. i want him to look as fish like as possible!! but this does a really good job at keeping that original green guy look while also still keeping the amphibian parts very noticeable. its mostly the face. i love his face!!!

i love this description of him. i feel there's never any acknowledgement of how strong triton is (which tbf i kind of forget a lot too) but also,,, yeah he can just totally hang out in the ocean. id love to know if theres a limit to how deep he can go. triton could make a mad living off of cave diving and scuba guiding. and salvaging ship wrecks!! the amount of trinkets this guy could just go sell off. im getting distracted. I LOVE TRITON.

have i mentioned that i adore how he looks here? i love how he looks!! maybe its the pointy ears. its a good look for him!

One of his siblings giving him some of their armor for protection? Temporary or maybe as an sweet gesture that's not so temporary (even if there isn't an threat which requires it) like he's got 0 sure he wears his leather jacket, and can manage without but he doesn't have an single item of legit armor -or you know! sibling bonding activity of 'okay lets compile some armor for you' (even if its not needed but just as an in case/because he is so very reckless and 100% would piss somebody off who would manage to try actively cutting his head off)

-also just cloaks, jackets are one thing but him stealing armor for comfort purposes? ever so careful with say an pauldron strapped on and yeah it's seen an lot of historic bullshit+probably bloodshed but he views it like he would an jacket or cloak as comforting+part of whoever he's borrowed it from

-him if had permission to add little extra personalization too? 'hey do you want to do an small design on this piece' and putting the image of lavender on the underside or something

Sometimes I wonder if my constant tendency to be extremely boring and silent irl is actually who I am as a person or if how I act online is actually me

[faislittlewhiteraven]

#i had the thought “isn't there another transforming pokemon? yeah its zoroark-” and instantly got hit with a flash bomb#the idea of the being a hisuasian zorua and normal zoroark couple is so cute#but also doesn't really make any sense when you think about it#oops#maybe he sometimes transforms into sif for fun

You know, funny thing is, not too long after posting, I thought to myself "Hmm, I wonder what form Isa-Ditto will end up making his main form once he decides to Change away from his current preference of big muscle mon?" and well, he likes being big and strong but he also wants to be cunning and smart, he deeply admires Siff and wants to understand him better, and since Isa probably picked up his skills in near 'perma transforming' into big muscle mon forms from training at a house of Change (which I realize I forgot to suggest in my top post)...

So I was actually thinking Isa-Ditto adding an Unovan Zoroark to his transforming roster post the loops would be pretty cool/adorable too! And not too unlikely given how frail the justification is for any of his other transformations are given the whole 'apparently everyone is normal type around here' thing so like. Go for it~ XD (...Admittedly started out with the thought of Meinshao for this first but U!Zoroark is definitely my preference of the two now that I've had the chance to think about it, and I imagine if we asked Siff he'd probably prefer the darker shades, extra bulk and fluff to snuggle up against <3 Oh and the mane. Can't forget the appeal of being a little fox able to nap in the boyfriend's fluffy, warm-of-the-living mane at least until he gets overwhelmed by "CUTE!!!" and ends up literally melting into a puddle of flustered pink goop again.)

...Sadly I think Siff would find Isa transforming into him pretty distressing given The King was a H!Zoroark and his bucket load of self loathing issues and all. I do definitely like the idea though and can 100% see Isa suggesting it before Siffrin shoots it down, absolutely freaked out even just imaging Isa in all that white and ghostly, flowing chill (especially if Siff did end up evolving during the final battle. Personally I'm thinking 'nooo stay cute tiny H!Zorua forever' because I like Siff being adorable but like. AU potential in the AU you know? XDD).

On an unrelated but similar note, finally decided Loop would in fact be a Mimikyu and their 'costume' would resemble actual Loop quite a bit in aesthetics: Black, starry body and tail which merge with the equally black and starry ghost hands/claws seamlessly, with a featureless 'pikachu star head' that has Loop's canon eyes -with two 'real' tiny white dot eyes on the body that always match the expression of Loop's 'disguise' eyes. (Aka a form that screams 'Loop is a Mimikyu... Or is he?' hints. Speaking of: Siff notices during the hand holding/touch starvation event that Loop's hands are a lot more... Solid, tough and warm than they were expecting from a fellow ghost type/creature of the void between stars... cackles in Necrozma forshadowing XD

So seen a few 'What if the ISAT cast were in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon' posts...

And I'm gonna put my hat in the ring because darn it I've been thinking about this for over a week now and I want to infect others with these ideas.

Siffren: Hisuian Zorua - White, adorable AND comes free with a neck ruff to hide their face in, but well, doesn't it fit Siff extremely well lore wise too? Just a cute little guy that's a remnant of a home and life forcefully taken away, Normal enough to be among the living with no issues but also Ghost because there's something missing... Something lost that shapes them, tears at them but they just can't let go... Also they eat a lot, have a good amount of mischief in their nature and use 'illusions' for self protection so like. It's a perfect fit really~ XD (Also the 'red' aspects during the Vs Friends fight makes me wonder if in the PMD version of ISaT Siffrin is evolving so wrong somehow that the universe is breaking and a huge chunk of the fight is the party basically mashing B button in utter terror~ XDDD)

Isabeau: Ditto - No joke, Isabeau had me really stumped for ages because what kind of pokemon species goes from nerd to buff to eventually somewhere in the middle during their evolution line but then I realized 'Wow I'm an idiot. There's a pokemon all about Change that can be any form right over there!' and thus Isa-Ditto was born in my mind. I like to think he's almost always in the form of a Marchoke, Zangoose or Scrafty or something that to the others is big and buff but Isa's warm smiling ditto face always stops him from ever looking intimidating, and back in the 'nerd' days Isa probably stuck to being a Gothita/Gothorita, if only because they're about the only mon I can think of with braids and they do seem like a good form if one wants others to stay away so they can focus on studying and stuff...

Mirabelle: Minccino/Cinccino - Ok, most of my reasoning for this one is because Mira visually reminds me of the Minccino line (those eyes <3 And her ribbon! <3) but like, she IS pretty studious and helpful and probably cleans up after everyone and that's Cinccino as anything to me, plus the sheer way this mon blitzs with Skill Link... IDK I just really feel the line suits her.

Odile: Kanto Persian or Purugly - After realizing Siff, Isa and Mira were all Normal types I decided to make it a thing and since under this logic Odele couldn't be a Kadabra (as was my first instinct), the idea of her being this big old book reading cat affectionately rolling her eyes at everyone else's nonsense just had so much appeal <3 Leaning Persian if only because its design matches her visuals better but the thought of her as a Purugly feeling comfortable enough around the others she doesn't puff up her fur via her tail around them is pretty cute/very 'seems standoff-ish but is secretly affectionate Odile' so I'm still struggling to choose between them.

Bonnie: Zigzagoon - Bonnie was probably the hardest to pick out because there were so many possibilites (Aipom for the mischief? Munchlax for the cooking/food vibes? Oh but what about Meowth for their weird hug face???). But then I realized pokemon of all sorts could do all of those things and what really stands out about Bonbon is their 'NPC somehow on the big adventure and doing their best' vibes so a spunky little Zigzagoon using their 'Gluttony' expertise in food to 'Pick Up' the party's sprits felt really fitting (also they way they dart in and out of combat with their Quick Feet just. It works you know? XD). Not sure which Zigzagoon form would be most fitting for them but currently leaning Galarian if only because Siff being weak to Bonnie fits hilariously well, it matches with Bonnie's 'desire to be edgy despite still being adorable' vibes and the mental thought of them far off in the future, all grown up and protecting their family as a big bad Obstagoon gives me a ton of warm fuzzies so yeah~ <3

Euphrasie: Lopunny - Look, it's just the hair, the affectionate personality and her being really really tall compared to the others alright? Only the party is actually Normal locked to me! X'D (I could see her as an Altaria or a Mega Ampharos as well but Lopunny just feels more 'right' somehow.)

The King: Hisuian Zoroark - . . . In my defence, he's an incarnation of malice born from the loss of his home/life with long long hair who acts as Siffrin's foil, pushes them towards 'discovering the red' and yoyos between tragically lamenting and being a ruthlessly, cruel monster who would hurt a child. There was no other option.

Loop: currently torn but leaning Cosmog/Cosmeom or Mimikyu for most of the game and Necrozma/Ultra Necrozma for the Act 6 secret fight - Finally the one non Normal type! And the fact it's the eldritch feeling Loop is kinda perfect? Helps them stand out more at least, and well you really can't beat Ultra Necrozma for 'star shaped thing that is both terrifying, potentially world ending and in immense amounts of pain'. (...Also its weak to Siff's H!Zorua and Bonnie's potential Dark type so it fits type wise also XD).

Change God: Mew - Do I really gotta explain why? (Legendary, has Transform, cute and sweet but also a little bastard, etc- It ticks all the boxes XD

So... Yeah. Those are my In Stars and Time 'what Pokemon would the main cast be' thoughts.
