Danny moved to Gotham.
Freakshow is touring in Gotham.
Freakshow knows Danny is in Gotham.
Danny knows Freakshow is still after him.
Danny's faith in heroes has been shattered.
Danny turns to the only person powerful enough to run Freakshow out of town, hopefully for good.
Danny turns to the Joker for help.
The Joker is looking for a new punching bag sidekick after Harley Quinn left him.
Danny is just the perfect person to be shaped by the Joker's hands.
Danny becomes the new Joker Junior.
#pondhead blurbs#dpxdc#how we feeling about this fellas#i think it's an ideal angst fic#but i don't wanna write it lol#the younger danny is the worse it gets#someone said that danny shouldn't be afraid of the joker because he's a clown and freakshow is a ringmaster. not a clown#if i find that post i'll tag the creator cause i can't remember rn#but i'm imagining danny who is heavily traumatized and scared and lonely#finding out that one of his worst enemies he hoped to never see again is hunting him and is so close danny has to check his eyes every day#just to make sure they haven't turned red#his anxiety is out of control and he's not about to go find a Bat or Bird to talk to#who would believe him anyways? he's a monster#but danny needs help cause he will not survive this on his own and he knows it#freakshow haunts his every waking dream#but freakshow isn't from gotham. he doesn't have the city's curses engraved into his blood. he never died and he's not truly teasing death#so danny chooses to plead for help from the only predator bigger than freakshow (in his eyes) who IS from gotham#danny goes to the Joker. prepared to offer everything but his free will and free mind. he can't give those up. it's all he has.#danny is a feral house cat asking a tiger to take care of a mountain lion for him by offering the tiger his own liver on a silver platter#joker is...delighted? maybe? no one is quite sure. but he takes what danny offers.#here is this little boy. almost the same age as the second robin when he died. pleading for the JOKER to be his savior. this will be fun

thought i heard a red-winged blackbird red-winged blackbird down my road he'll be in there singing his heart out he'll be telling me stories too of where he went to winter last year of how he's going back there too
#andreth#aegnor#tolkien fanart#silmarillion fanart#*through gritted teeth* if i do not do more backgrounds i will not get better at them. but they suck so bad!!#caption is red-winged blackbird by david francey but for bonus pain and suffering it can also be red-winged blackbird by judy collins#fly away you red-winged bird‚ leave behind the miner's wife // she'll dream about you when you're gone‚ she'll dream about you all her life#subcreation#whither you go may you find light

Still massively burned out and not exactly using my time wisely outside of going to work and keeping the plants and fish alive… but I roused from my art blocked stupor briefly to slap some color on this. I forgot how trees and leaves work, and composition, so that will come later. (Also can’t draw hexagons but that’s true for most people)
Personal art for my use only. I swear I will get back to other proper thing’s hopefully sooner rather than later?
#work in progress#personal art#birds#avian#blue jay#Baltimore oriole#wings#green ash#red oak#how can I keep making tattoo designs for myself when I haven’t even gotten one yet?#because it costs nothing to dream#leaves are hard to draw and why?#i look at leaves all day this shouldn’t be hard

It's a special birthday this time around; I created Mallory ten years ago today, and in the film script I'm writing is her 10th birthday, so I thought it'd be really meaningful to do a lineup illustration of her various designs as they've evolved over the years, from the very first drawing, through the black-and-white and color web comics, to the present day.
It's also special because I just got back from Lightbox Expo in Los Angeles, where Mal featured heavily in my portfolio as I spoke with industry folks at all the studios (Disney, Cartoon Network, Bento Box, Netflix, etc. etc. etc.). Had a great time, and she definitely garnered some attention.
Happy birthday, kid! You've changed my life.

iiiiiiii dreamt a dream of palismen last niiiiiight~
i think i might finally know what my funny little sona could have as a palisman (although they definitely wouldnt get it until postcanon). might even post a sketch of what it looked like in the dream, what it evoked, and what itd probably end up lookin like for "realsies". or hell, maybe i take the idea to blender and model it out. thats kinda like carving, right?
#anyways in the dream it was red and grey and kinda resembled the head of a train but also a bird but like super weirdly stylized#like 1930s idea of what a futuristic train might look like#but then simplified and exaggerated to hell and back for funny modern cartoon nonsense#and despite the fact that its the Head of a train i think im gonna call em “caboose” just cause thats such a fun word#caboose the train engine#put that right alongside photinia the flash beetle#and the possibly-two-headed-or-two-tailed newt-thing i kinda half-assedly thought might become my palisman#also!#also.#it could whistle to communicate#like imagine a toy train choo-choo-ing a bunch of happy little ditties#it would be so cute you guys

Took a nap and had a dream within a dream where I was knocked out then dreamt that I knew what the angry birds 3 movie would be about. It will not happen but I kind of wish I could watch my angry birds 3 dream movie
#I don’t even know how to explain it there were lesbians and there were balloon animal sort of texture#and the plot was them like. red discovering some ancient method of achieving eternal happiness for everyone on bird island#he goes on the journey fueled by the ostrization his younger self recieved#only to find it is just a story. but he becomes content with his place in the world and is thankful for the good things life has led him to#*ostracization#wait just realized the first tags didn’t make too much sense. the movie opened up with a lesbian wedding with a random like. cousin#that red has in my dream apparently. his journey is also fueled by him wanting his cousin and her new wife to have the best future possible#his journey also leads him to be more content with what he can’t control as that is an issue brought up and poorly resolved in the 2nd movie#and everyone had a ballon animal texture to them for some reason like they were made from balloons it was kindof cool

some dumb little sketches of the continuity dreams i keep having
beware the not-bird
idk what their deal is but it sure is SOMETHIN
#dream masks#artists on tumblr#sketchbook#sketch#doodle#illustrator#the not-bird lives on the side of a red brick wall and runs around in circles vertically#all while a megaphone attached to the wall says in a droning voice#its a bird its a bird its a bird its a bird#yea#idk man#shit's weird

Do you think a bird in a cage looks to the sky?
And dreams of freedom?
always out of reach,
And yet, so close
—
6:35AM
Fragile crocheted warmth drapes from my nest.
Loose bandages cling to my arm.
A usual birdsong is replaced by cold silence.
My dark reflections greet me
In a mirror that shows 8 jagged versions of myself.
I brush my hair into place with a broken comb,
And open the door into a room of artificial light.
Today.
I will watch the sun rise.
I will dress my wounds.
I will brush my teeth.
And I will go for a walk.
—
That bird looks into the sky,
A witness to the passage of time
It says
“I want to fly too.”
