friend server has changed our nicknames to various things you might find in a haunted house or whatnot so whenever one of us has a tough time it produces really good sentences such as ākeep going you can do it creepy spiderā and āterrifying shadow i hope you feel better soonā and āthank you sinister glow youāre always there for meā

Ghouls night out
[First]Ā PrevĀ <ā-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#Scopophobia#Don't be mean Lan Wangji - the dead girl aesthetic is a curated one. Support women's rights to look dead!#I have been waiting for this scene for ages...the ghost girl entourage is such a good look for WWX.#And by gods does the audio drama actually do something interesting with one of them.#Namely that we actually get to see WWX talk with them and learn about who they were and what they left behind.#I love necromancer characters but it's way too common for them to be like āGo! Ghost no.145!ā like they're a pokemon#and not...you know...someone who had a whole life that they left behind.#I love me a necromancer who has an awareness to whose soul/body they are using. It adds a lot of flavour!#MDZS is a little hit or miss with this. I think the fans do a lot of the work with making Mo Xuanyu a bigger character.#Yi City has this in spades. Even though we don't individually get character backstories#We get many painful reminders about how these 'corpses' were people.#We also get a few lines about how WWX used whatever corpses he could get his hands on (including grandparents - Woof!)#MDZS often (but not always) likes to remind us that every sacrifice and every ghost was a person.#It is so close to nailing the landing regarding the deconstruction of the necromancer character.#Anyhow. You may have noticed the uptick in quality in the last two comics. Rule of three means next one is going to be a treat B*)#See you all very soon!

Danny runs for Mayor
Simple Prompt: Danny runs for the Gotham Mayor position
Extended Prompt: Danny is an absolute little shit throughout his entire campaign but still manages to win because he is legitimately one of the best candidates around
Just imagine the crack that could come from this!
Reporter: What is your stance on Vigilantism? Danny: Well I agree that Vigilantes are helpful for the communities that need them, and they should work with the police at every opportunity, I feel like the idea will always be a city where Vigilantes are not needed. Also I fail to see the relevancy of the question, there are no vigilantes in Gotham Reporter: What do you mean? What about the Bat-Family? Danny: No, Batman isnāt a Vigilante. Batman is a Crime Lord.
Or
Danny: As mayor, I promise that I will not be infected by corruption. Not because of my moral standings, but because I absolutely fucking hate clowns and I will never accept a bribe as long as that guy is still alive. Yes this is me putting a hit out on the Joker. Crime Bosses, if you want to try and bribe me, you gotta kill him first or I wonāt even consider it!
Or
Batman: Why is a Meta-Human running for Gotham Office? You know this city doesnāt have a very good track record with people like you. Even the Signal had a rough start. Danny: Well, I just had a strong compulsion to help this city reach the peak of itās potential *looks over Batmanās shoulder to see Lady Gotham holding up Cue Cards telling him what to say. She promised to help with his paperwork for the next 50 years if he became Mayor and helped fix her city* Danny: Such a strong compulsion...
Or
Penguin: Look kid, I donāt care if you have enough power to destroy me at the subatomic level, I have enough money to ruin you, your sister, your parents, even your uncle! Danny: Oh really? I could get the souls of every person you have ever killed to get confessions out of them. Or I could give them the power to rip you apart. Or I could even just possess you and donate all your money to charity.
Or
Danny: Oh god dammit! Vlad: Hello Badger! Glad to see you followed in my footsteps instead of your fathers! Danny: This wasnāt because of you! Lady Gotham asked for help! Vlad: A WIN IS A WIN!

As per usual, itās DP crossover with (probably) DC, although you could probably adjust it for other fandoms
ANYWAYS
A little kid and his mother are trick or treating in another city, perhaps at some kind of event rather than knocking on doors, and the kid is dressed as Phantom. Itās very adorable, with his little ghost-shaped bucket and clearly homemade and already stained costumeālisten, white only works if you can just fly over street grime or phase it out of your clothesāand his slightly Iāll fitting wig. The kid is SO happy to be out and about dressed as his favorite, and maybe even showed it off to Phantom back in Amity Park before his family left.
The hero, insert whoever you wish here, is probably in civvies and just enjoying the event. The kid, meanwhile, is so glad when people ask who he is so he can explain, and so- the hero gets to hear ALL ABOUT the local town hero who is probably pretty small time despite the kidās clearly exaggerated stories. The hero certainly never heard of him, but the kidās mom confirms that Phantom really was the town hero, despite some mixed reviews of the poor guy.
āDid you manage to show him your costume?ā the hero asks.
āYeah! We went down to the cemetery to leave flowers and I got to show him my costume.ā
Wait. Cemetery? Maybe it was part of theme, because Phantom had to be named that for a reason, butā¦ it sounded likeā¦
The kid ignores the suddenly VERY still hero and instead turns to his mom. āMomma, do you think we should bring him candy? He doesnāt get to trick or treat like we do, and I can work super hard to get him a bunch!ā
The kidās mom just smiles. āWe could, but maybe we should bring him something homemade. I bet heād like something more filling, teen boys like him have a hollow leg.ā
The kid wrinkles his nose. āLike Vernie with the pizza bagels?ā
āLike your cousin, yes. We can make some cinnamon rolls and take them to his memorial, maybe bring some of the apples from your grandpaās gardenā¦ā
The hero is pretty much forgotten as the two-part family wanders off, not quite intentionally forgetting the hero is there so much as the hero somewhat accidentally ended the conversation when they just froze and didnāt ask anything further.
Not that the hero didnāt want to. But theyād learn something very serious.
Oneāthere was a small town hero theyād never heard of. Twoāthat hero was apparently a teen. Thirdāmost pressingly, the teen hero was both beloved enough to have kids dressing up as him and dead enough to have a grave.
Thisā¦ might require some phone calls.
#dpxdc#danny phantom crossover#meanwhile Danny. sitting on a giant marble slab that has the most ridiculous gag gifts a ghost could ever ask for#heās just like Oh Sweet Cinnamon Rolls!#he would try to convince people to bring him nasty burger but while val has MOSTLY gotten over her vindictive anger at Phantom DOES decide#that sheās gonna be petty and add cilantro to everything#because Danny has the cilantro soap gene#jokes on her heāll still eat it#Danny likes his little memorial in the grave. it helps settle him sometimes. also heās gotten to know the security guards for the cemetery#theyāre fun. a bit morbid. they LIKE his jokes so you can stuff it JAZZ#MEANWHILE the hero. Whomstever they are but like 90% of you are thinking either batfam or Justice league#are having just. a TOUCH of a crisis#now they gotta figure out where the kid and his mom are from without either of them figuring out#dealerās choice on what the GIW and why Amity Park isnāt on the radar#Iāll add my two cents bc when donāt I but Iām by and large not likeā¦ dictating this? anyways#I like making the GIW just a BIT more incompetent or just having some massive flaws as an organizational group#so they keep forgetting to tell people to not LEAVE and to keep quiet#average amity Parker if the GIW tried this anyways: aw thatās cute. anyways-#and if itās dc I guess you need to figure out how the jl never found out. so#i mean thereās a LOT of heroes and cities in dc#and amity park is just lost to the noise or. bc Fenton bad luck#every time Danny tried to call. the jl had some insane disaster and or their systems were down#he eventually figured he might actually be cursed- juryās still out on that -and heās saving lives by just handling it himself#he can handle rhe metaphorical mega thunderstorms if it means he doesnāt accidentally summon a fucking tsunami to hit the planet ya know?#the kid and the mom have no idea that what they said was Odd#they are just so used to it. amity park already was using death puns and had an. interesting history and relation with death#even BEFORE there was a dead kid flying around in his white gogo boots

> AZ has a brother
> brother wanted to claim Kalos for himself before realizing the error of his ways

my huge gripe w modern httyd aus is that itās always set in the suburban midwest in podunk nothing town without taking it to its natural conclusion. As if berk would not be a steel mill town on the rust belt with the gas prices jacked sky high for tourists driving through the middle of nowhere. As if the barbaric archipelago would be the suburbs of a big city rather than rural towns in the Deep South. as if hiccup would not somehow end up hiking in the appalachias or turn up half dead after missing for 6months in the oregon wilderness. Cowards. Fools. if youāre setting it in america then you should take it to its natural conclusion š£ļøš£ļøš£ļø
#mochis mumbles#httyd#im jesting. For the most part#but seriously look me in the eye and say with a straight face that hiccup is a city boy#or heās from suburban america#iāll laugh in your face. stoick and gobber shriek at hiccup if he isnāt awake by sunrise and the cows havenāt been fed. Etc.#he would totally only go to the city when he hits his college yearsā¦..then itās his devil wears prada era (i am dragged offstage)#anyway but my gripe is mainly the american-centric nature of modern aus#which I mean. fanfic is for fun. but multiculturalism is cool too

So I finally got around to listening to Dog Park Dissidents... I didn't expect a song about the death of gay cruising culture to make me want to cry
#it really taps into that sense of queer isolation#especially if youre a lower class queer who wants to meet other queers#you need money to go to events#you cant have people over because you cant afford a place to live#gay bars and clubs are impossible to find unless you live in a big progressive city#and even so#you probably cant afford to go anyways#shit man#this really hit me in the feels#dog park dissidents#punk music

i saw this tweet and found it interesting for two reasons. one is that some people base how good cartoon network would be to toh by how it treated su, and despite the fact that suās treatment by the network was considered poor at the time, now its thought to be exceptionally good in comparison to modern shows.
two is how exactly su got impacted by a limited budget. a common criticism is how characters like connie, peridot, and lapis are left out of missions. but balancing a lot of characters is not only hard but also costly (extra animation, extra voicesāitās been revealed that the show is limited to a set number of characters per episode otherwise theyāre over budget). animation mistakes are not uncommon since retakes cost extra. the entire reason the original show got cut short was due to loss of funding!
#i donāt know if pay rates differ per networks#but a.ivi and s.urrashu have said that they needed to work outside of su in order to make sufficient funds#it only makes me wonder what other ways su suffered from a lower budget#that we as the audience never got to see#in the vein of the too-little characters complaint#another part of that is that low-stakes episodes shouldāve been abt the main cast instead of the townies#like last one out of beach city and too short to ride vs restaurant wars and kikiās pizza delivery service#i definitely see that especially since that isnāt budget related#nor would it seem to be network related (even if cn had an āepisodic episodesā quota it could still be abt the gems#(another side note: /would/ cn even have a requirement that the show make episodes that can be watched standalone?#this is a question for the people who were around when su was airing#what episodes often got rerun?#was it the townie eps or the lore eps?#for example i heard that su once did a āperidot eventā where they just reran peridot episodes#which had eps that skip around in the show#did they even care about airing the story so that it made sense anyways?#id get it if the low stakes townie episodes were the ones getting rerun))#but i have such a boring view on that which is i think itās simply because the creators like townie eps#like in interviews r.ebecca s.ugar has said sheās the type to be really invested in background characters#answers in interviews have been crafted in ways to hide whatās really going on though tbf#prime example of this is rebecca and ian saying the wedding being interrupted was meant to follow the common trope#when later in the art book they said that it was bc cn rejected the ep bc it āwasnāt interesting enoughā#both could simultaneously be true! itās a psychology thing though where people make up nice-sounding explanations behind what they create#in retrospect because they want it to be thought out in such a nice way they believe in it#the bigger problem is that not matter how many episodes there are of them#it can be hard for ppl to be invested in the townies the same way they are invested in the main cast#iām sure that a million writers have made surefire advice on how to get an audience to care about characters#but off the top of my head i think itās because 1. most donāt have strong motivations to get truly invested in#(exception is ronaldo but people find him too annoying to care about him)#okay i had more points and explanations but i hit the tag limit and idk if anyone is actually reading this so bye
