DP x DC Phantom Punk: Rowdy 3

Back on my Punk Danny agenda

So, Danny is not like your typical ghost, and thus, Dan and Dani, aren't either. Most ghosts can coast by naturally and just exist outside the GZ despite the lack of ectoplasm, as long as they don't go overboard

The Phantoms?

They need more. It's not normal to need that much ectoplasm, but after a series of incidents where both the Fanton's and Vlad's portals no longer exist, they're a little screwed

So, what's a trio of Punk ghosts to do?

Luckly, there is a way to supplement their energy, and they learned it from a less than savory source... Spectra. Spectra feeds off of emotions, misery, anxiety and depression being her bread and butter. Now, technically any emotion will do, it just has to be heightened for them to get anything out of it. Joy and euphoria can work, but it's hard to consistently produce those emotions and feed. Things like fear and anger are easier to produce, but come with some... ethical issues

Their solution? Get it from people who deserve it

So, Dan, Danny, Dani, and [insert fourth character here, maybe Jazz? Sam would probably be down, remember to delete placeholder] hop into a heavily graffitied GAV and drive to Gotham. Living out of the GAV, Decked out in leather, spikes and denim, they roll into the most crime ridden city in the world and proceed to find random goons and criminals homes, bust the place up, make them nearly shit their pants and then feed off the fear and anger of these career criminals

Meanwhile, the Bats keep showing up at the scene just after they scram and keep having to deal with the aftermath

The inspiration is the rowdy 3 from Dirk Gently's Holistic Dectective Agency, if you are not familiar with my favorite punk energy vampires, allow me to educate you (only watch to the two minute mark if you want to avoid spoilers for the show)

sometimes. what i like to read or write in fic or just generally play around with.... is different and, dare i say, sometimes even contradicting to what i think the canonical reading is offering. like yeah he would not fucking say that but every once in a while i do like to indulge. sue me

every so often i will see a post from a leftist on this website that is so egregiously ableist that i remember that like. oh yeah the userbase of leftists on this website is violently anti-disabled people and will jump at any chance to demonize any of us for any reason. i just forget that fact because i'm extremely dedicated to curating my space

i'm paraphrasing here but i saw a post that said, "every time i see an American [disabled person] mention being scared about the election because they're afraid of losing their benefits i have to laugh. anybody who wants blood-soaked money from the US government deserves to starve" which. like. goodness that's a lot to unpack. i think we should burn the whole suitcase instead !

[here-there-were-dragons]

i have to wonder what super hardcore militant vegans think should be done about obligate carnivore animals, because in all my painfully-rapidly-approaching-30-years i've literally never actually seen anyone give a clear consistent much less halfway feasible answer on that

[4esthetic-dissonance]

at first I was like 'Obi Wan can have an intervention by Temple Healers. As a treat.' and did a little fic about Qui Gonn having to handle shit on Telos with Feemor and a Grand Padawan while Obi Wan fucking FINALLY got a little sympathy and help for what he went through on Melida/Daan (And Galla. AND Phindar. AND all the shit before he even got picked up as a Padawan).

But, uh. Well now I can't help thinking 'How much worse can I make things for him if I give him a relationship with Dooku before he fell?'.

I was going to send message but re job: try health insurance agencies. The one I work for rn sells Medicare and my job is basically to screen the calls and make sure they're compliant with Medicare rules and grade the agent selling it. It's stupid easy and let's me work from home while keeping my bills paid

sorry i'm answering this so late dude i so appreciate this ask. if you feel like it, could you message me more details sometime? like what the position/role is called and stuff?

decided to start putting everything on this blog so that it's out there, feel free to ignore.

always nervous ab using people's "they" pronouns when they have 'em, because I'm genuinely using the pronouns that most people just don't seem to use for them, to add a little gender euphoria to their day bc like I understand how great it feels when you use 2 or more diff pronouns & someone uses the others that aren't commonly used. but I don't want it to feel like an impersonal, "they" that you use to describe someone whose pronouns you either don't know or haven't checked lol

So then I'm like "ok I'll call them by their name AND their 'they' pronouns, so now they KNOW I've read their bio/byf/info in general and that it's on purpose! >:)" but then my stupid brain's like "NO, you've never spoken to this person before! Calling them by their name is too informal!!!" and I'm like "FUCK"

[dandyshucks]

apparently someone reported my pinterest account for self-harm/depression, what the hell 😭😭 got an email basically saying "hey if ur struggling pls reach out to someone xoxo"

I AM LITERALLY JUST CHILLIN. and I've got most (if not all) of my mentally ill boards hidden so ??? what are people reporting me for 😭

also its a little funny to me bc theres no option to say uhhh yeah I'm struggling but I've been in therapy since grade 9 or 10 and I'm still like this, so i dont think your help centre is going to have anything for me, trust me I Know I'm not well already LMAO

[oceanicpoetry]

i wish i was eloquent enough to need minimal words to communicate my thoughts. instead whenever i try to talk it gets wordier and wordier without ever hitting at the centre of it all and it makes me feel nauseous because i don't want to take up that much space. but i want to be understood. only when i talk i realise i don't actually seem to know what exactly is at the core myself either

If each members of the batfam were to throw an object into the Lazarus Pit to see what happens, what object would they choose?

(I had to ask this after your comment about Dick and the rubber duckies)

Okay, I was waiting to answer this because I was trying to come up with a whole list, but instead my brain kind of went a different silly direction. (I got as far as "well all I can think for Dick now is rubber duckies and my first instinct for Steph is 'glitter'" and then, well.)

What I imagine happening is that as soon as someone throws something in and gets an effect (inanimate objects coming to life? things melting into component parts? who knows, the pits are basically just Deus Ex Acid Bath at this point) everybody immediately has to figure it out, because they're all a bunch of nerds.

So you end up with people scavenging items to sacrifice for the sake of science (probably Steph and Cass, maybe Jason), people observing results (Dick, because he doesn't trust any of them unattended, and Duke because a) he's got all the weird fancy vision and b) he's very curious about what happens), people cataloguing results (mostly Tim, I imagine Babs declares she has better shit to do and tells them not to push each other in (or film it if they do)), and people directing the experiment (all of them fighting each other but especially Damian because he's clearly an expert here). Does it matter what things are made of (organic material like wood or wool versus plastic or steel)? Does it matter what the object is, if it represents something organic (a stuffed animal) versus not (a toy car)?

They probably collect some decent preliminary data until Tim and Damian start fighting about what the logical next step is based on their current results, Jason threatens to drop them in, Damian gets indignant because as if you could, Tim gets that Mad Scientist Look and wonders what happens if you double dip someone, Dick is pulling out the Dad Leader Voice to tell them that no one is getting put in the Pit oh my god, Cass is "suggesting" new tests by throwing things at Tim's head (which is also just to watch him flail to catch them while he's in the middle of arguing, it's good training, and it's funny when he misses), and Steph is persuading Duke to use his powers on the Pit water to see what happens (I cannot imagine it's anything good).

I'm sure everyone makes it home in one piece and without accidentally activating any latent powers or anything.

Internet historian stealing his scripts directly from articles is hardly surprising... god damn though

Hello love! 5 and 20 for the ask game? <3

5. Favorite actor and actress.

Okay, it's been a while since I've thought this out, but I'm going to go with some unconventional choices I think, because I've been watching a lot of new shows lately.

I'm going to go for Sarah Paulson nowadays, despite not watching all of her filmography. I just saw her in Mrs. America, and she always brings something unique and different to a role. I'll also add Cate Blanchett to that and Saoirse Ronan for someone younger. I just tend to love all their projects they're in/ they choose.

In terms of favourite actor, I'm going to go for other people who I also haven't seen all of the filmographies, but every time they show up on screen I just enjoy them and feel like they're just wildly charismatic no matter what role they're in. I'll go for Andrew Garfield, and Paul Mescal, nowadays.

20. Pet Peeves?

I've got a few, and these are wildly specific and may be a thing for me, but I tend to be a little annoyed about manners:

People who are rude/ who you apologize to when something's clearly their fault, and they just continue on like nothing happened (I.E: You both walk towards the door in a grocery market, you kind of laugh and say excuse me when you meet the door at the same time, and they give you a look like you're a piece of poo on their shoe and walk past you without otherwise acknowledging you). Like, what was the reason? It actually took more effort to be an asshole than not to be one in that situation, lol.

Men who think covering up their body oder with cologne/ body spray is appealing to anyone, then move into enclosed spaces like metros/trains. It isn't. Please stop this.

People who are annoyed when people are don't bother to at least attempt to match someone's positive energy, or worse, are just like, "What do you want" when someone's trying to be nice and positive. I understand everyone has off days, but when someone's being really sincere and earnest and are happier people, I always am annoyed by people who are like "YEAH WHATEVER, UGH," especially when that person is being sweet out of the goodness of their heart (Think someone being an asshole to a Shifty Powers type. Again, like, what was the reason. He's the cutest thing since sliced bread and clearly doesn't mean any harm).

Cars/ vehicles that don't give the right of way to public transit even though buses should have the right of way, and then just try to beat them out. Like, dude, it's a multiple-ton vehicle full of people. And you're some asshole trying to speed up and beat them onto the highway- just give the right of way. You're only going to get twenty feet ahead in bad traffic- I promise you, lol.

Last one, I swear: Just because I like to go to the gym and weight lift, my pet peeve at the gym is dudes just staring because you're a girl in the gym, and acting like you're some weird anomaly there. I'm just lifting weights, bro, leave me alone, lol.

Hello! Are you planning on translating the second novel?

Hi! Sorry about the radio silence. I am, I've just been busy with midterms the past few weeks. I'll probably start soon but I honestly have no estimate for when it might get done😅 Sorry about the wildly unpredictable upload schedule.
