Bruce owes Danny money. He does Not want to pay up.
So! Danny had to run away from Amity Park when his parents discovered his Powers. But every time he tried to stay in a single place in America, they somehow managed to find him.
Turns out, they were working with the GIW to track him using the GIW's resources and the Fenton's Genius to find him everywhere he ran to. Eventually, Danny figured he had had enough and ran to Europe where the GIW had no Jurisdiction.
After wandering for a while, Danny was found and recruited by the League of Assasins. He was powerful, skilled, and connected to the Lazarus Pits, so they approached him with a job offer.
They would hide him from the Fentons, who had began to search for him in Europe independently, and in return he would work for them as an Assasin.
Considering his situation, Danny agreed.
He began training to be an Assasin, supplementing his Ghost Abilities with the abilities of an Assasin to become even more Stealthy.
While training under the League, Danny met another recruit simply known as Bruce. They trained together for years, even going on a few missions together gathering intel, and using disguises to hid in plain sight.
On one of these missions, Danny lent Bruce some money with the promise to get paid back when they returned to the League. That same night, Bruce left the League of Assasins and never came back.
...
Bruce was sitting in the Batcave going over a case with Tim, Jason was off to the side cleaning his Guns, and Dick and Cass were holding an acrobatics competition in their Obstacle Course, with Damien, Steph, and Duke cheering them on.
Suddenly an Eldritch Emerald Light sprang to life in the center of the Batcave, and everybody dropped what they were doing and sprang to action.
Slowly, a glowing green figure emerged from the Light. He appeared Eldritch in Nature, as if he existed in multiple layers of reality at once and looking at him gave them minor headaches. Then, the figure spoke up.
"BRUCE. ITS BEEN 15 YEARS. YOU STILL OWE ME 16 DOLLARS."
Recognizing Danny, Bruce took a moment to compose himself before responding.
"Fuck Off."
#Dpxdc#Dp x dc#Dcxdp#Dc x dp#Danny Phantom#Dc#Dcu#Danny is in the League of Assasins#He was friend with Bruce#He mostly works on Infiltration and Intel Gathering but still assassinated on occasion#He's a Ghost so death doesn't mean much to him#Danny is a little shit#Yes I made this entire post for that joke#This is not the first time Danny has done this#Its just the most public one#That's why Bruce is so unfazed at Danny#He has been refusing to pay Danny back for 15 Years#Its the entire reason he left the League when he did#At this point it's a matter of Principal#He will Never give Danny his money.#Never

introducing ds9 to a friend (yippee) and it turns out i had totally forgotten the plot of past prologue, but um. we all agree that julian's spy kink started when garak shoved him into that changing room, right
#if a hot older man talked to me like that and then shoved me into a changing booth to gather intel on him#i'd develop a spy kink too#and god. just this whole episode julian is acting like this is his first crush#telling the entire ops staff about every new development and asking sisko for advice#and everyone responds to this the same way they respond to him talking about dax#which could mean nothing.#julian bashir#elim garak#garak#garashir#past prologue#ds9

nie huaisang may say "i don't know" all the time but the person who Really doesn't know or even want to know is lan xichen. thanks for coming to my tedtalk
#keri chats#mdzs#mdzs spoilers#mo dao zu shi#nie huaisang#lan xichen#these two have such an underexplored dynamic... betrayal in a form so subtle yet piercing by the end it's sickening#nhs goes idk idk!! all the time but he DOES k things. he does know!! he just pretends he doesn't!#when lxc calmly admits that he doesn't know stuff he's being honest. THIS is the real guy who dk and doesn't WANT to find out#nhs is playing up a dumb incompetent loser image to gather intel and use it to quietly indirectly steer things the way he wants#lxc thinks of himself as just but he 1) delays decisions until he has All Possible Info 2) can't bear harsh truths abt people he cares abt#which ends up clouding his judgment and making him the one who's actually in the dark

therapist!voldemort x patient!harry, but instead of helping Harry recover from trauma, Voldemort somehow manages to make it much worse.
#Bonus points if Harry SLOWLY realizes that all his trauma was caused by Voldemort who is now working... as an undercover therapist????#Even funnier if voldemort's not even trying to hide his identity#He's just trying to gather intel you see#tom riddle#harry potter#lord voldemort#voldemort#tomarry#harrymort#tomarrymort

very curious about public opinion
honestly we all know post ck kaz is putting his whole back into making the council's lives miserable until they stop slavery. but what about the 1/13 of them that is uhhhh maybe like his friend or something (don't ask him to admit this out loud. he won't)
#six of crows#grishaverse#kaz brekker#wylan van eck#most fics I read either completely ignored wylan being a councilman or kind of downplayed how many options are available#now that kaz has a direct connection to the government#like kaz could pull wylan into his plans OR sneakily read all his reports to gather intel OR completely ignore the fact they know each othe#= sacrificing a very good source so wylan won't have to commit crimes#and like all kaz actions the last option is only reasonable because everything considerate kaz does also has a second agenda#like yeah not asking wylan to commit treason is nice but Also if he doesn't commit treason he won't lose his seat in the council#which allows him to keep helping the cause from the legal side and also keeps the door open for kaz to use this connection in the future#BUT ALSO. kaz/wylan scheming is too good to pass on yknow?? just them doing business in the living room while jesper begs for attention#help me make up my mind ty 😘#kaz & wylan

Me? Doing a YCH from 2019? Yes. Yes I am.
I know I don’t really post art here but I didn’t know where else to post my extremely late addition to @galoogamelady’s GTA YCH. So this is my silly billy OC named Knockoff (called this colloquially because they keep starting scam cults, a joke about a knockoff prophet).
Anyway here, I expect no response from this, I really am not an art blog lmao, I just like funny little guy
#Galoo’s YCH#galoogamelady#Buttons#Sybil ‘Knockoff’ Lauriate#I’m so mid at rendering hooooly shit#my oc#GTA Online#YCH#he’s so babygirl#Knockoff is like#a disloyal con artist who pretends to be inept to fly under the radar#a bit of a coward who feigns bravery and acts as an informant who gathers intel for various crews as a side gig#but mostly just keeps starting ill fated sex cults to get laid /j

i keep meaning to make an effortpost about nestor's role in the iliad. that book i read a year ago about iliadic paranarratives completely changed my view of that ancient prattler and i'm still thinking about it
#he's got us all fooled. he's actually super influential and holds so much sway within the central conflict#not just as a custodian of historical precedence but in all his subtle acts of persuasion#'aw what a sweet doddering old man' meanwhile he sets up odysseus to crash and burn at the embassy just to gather intel

uhhhhh au i've had for ages and been thinking about recently where Hide joins Kaneki and Banjou after Aogiri instead of the CCG
#just him and kaneki hanging out#hide becoming friends with hinami and hanging out with her when the others are gone#hide immediately not liking tsukiyama and hearing the story of the restaurant and being pissed at him#but keeping a nice facade around him#and hide being good at gathering intel on the human side of things

LOUIS MATHIS, THE INTELLIGENCE GATHERER — a walking collection of information to use against enemies and who's responsible for 'scaring' problematic clients a little to keep them in line.
#YOU'RE AS MUCH A PART OF ME AS I AM YOU: family portrait.#louis mathis is in charge of gathering intel and is sometimes distrusted by people visiting the mathis household / are barton's clients.#this is because he is VERY much capable of smooth-talking what he wants to know out of someone or when that doesn't work...#effectively threatening them into quote unquote 'giving it up' and has chameleoned his way into dangerous operations just to-#learn how the inner workings of them and report back to barton as to how they could bring them down.#louis has also been known to procure blackmail on people who have attempted to 'out' the mathis family as a crime family.#so all in all he is dangerous but in a 'you're dead - you just don't know it yet' kind of way.#louis is the silent 'predator animal' of the family and has been compared to a fox due to his wiliness.#the flower in the corner of this picture is known as a snapdragon and symbolizes deception BUT also graciousness.#this 'graciousness' could apply to louis because although he is crafty and has tricked many people into their doom...#he seems to have a softspot for animals and has always tried to look after jack after julien passed away.

like seriously whatever you do dont think about the captain and that story about someone calling into gay bars and not saying anything, just listening to queer people living and laughing and having fun. definitely don't think about the captain doing that. haha.
#both during his life and in death#i just looked it up and the 1930s british queer scene was beautiful like jazz age stuff#the idea of the captain just discretely privately calling into places he's heard rumored to be queer#just to listen to the saxophone over the static of the telephone and know that there were gay people living and loving somewhere#and then to think about him missing that EVEN MORE in death because now he cant LEAVE#he cant hear rumors from people he cant call in#imagine the favors he'd have to owe julian to dial a number and let cap listen to the receiver without knowing what it is#like of course julian wants to know and he pesters him. but when cap is Deadly Serious and scared and sad.#a face julian's never seen. he winds his jokes down and agrees to do it#making cap think it was his idea- 'a bit of charity for the old walrus then'- instead of a deep understanding and love#and since its been decades of course the number he calls isnt a gay club anymore. maybe it doesnt even connect#and it breaks his heart and it takes him another decade to gather intel and the nerve to ask julian again#but when he does he finally gets a place and the phone quality is INCREDIBLE he can hear so much#he can hear people and their upbeat music and their laughter and their love#and he cries#and if julian sees it and pretends not to then its so that he can have the blackmail later thank you for asking#anyway im making myself emotional#bbc ghosts#EDIT Becuase then when julian overhears he tries subtly to make the captain feel more comfortable#bc julian is an asshole but he's not homophobic i mean he fucks everyone#so he tries to pepper in more stories about men but that just makes cap uncomfortable#and hes frustrated bc he cant think of anything else to do other than flirt with him but thats a bad idea#but then he remembers that he went to bars and places and maybe he'll like that#so he 'accidentally' dials some clubs he knows were cool and leaves the phone off the receiver for cap to find#and cap just gives him a curt nod and a clearing of his throat and they Dont Talk about it but they Know

THIS IS WHO HE IS AT HIS CORE: A MAN WHO GIVES OTHERS THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT. his heart has been warring between cold blue-gray hesitancy & the fervid desire to help. what could he have done? refuse his ex-friend a safe place to land, leave her to roam these streets, hunted by the very people who want her gone? the same streets where every corner breathes the decay of crime, where one wrong move could seal her fate? Dick is not stupid — he’d seen the headlines, the seedy rumors circulating her name, all twisted around the brutal killing of a corporate giant whose hands were no cleaner than her own. whether she did it or not, he isn’t one hundred percent sure. all he knows is that she cannot afford to be seen; the city is too eager to paint her guilty. in his apartment, she’s safe from prying eyes & suspicious glances.
what’s a little more danger when he’s already neck-deep in it? after all, Dick’s always had a knack for turning the tables, for finding a way to make the chaos work in his favor.
he returns home via the well-loved fire escape. it feels as though he is suspended in some disorienting dream until he presses down on his shoulder, where he feels the telltale throb of a bruise forming. he grounds himself in the reality of pain. frustration gnaws at him; unbidden, his thoughts has wandered during patrol, and that distraction has cost him. tonight’s rewards are sore muscles, stiff joints, and the odd bruise. lately, there’s another constant reminder of this new chapter: an extra toothbrush sits in the holder on his bathroom counter, right next to his own. a spare key is on the hook by the door, ready for hands that aren’t his. there’s even a row of notes, tacked to the fridge with mismatched magnets, reminders of his schedule scribbled hastily but left intentionally, each one proof that he’s not in this alone.
absentmindedly, he scratches the underside of Haley’s chin, the spoiled pup responding with eager nudges for more. ❛ You two had any fun while I was gone? ❜ he says, gaze fixed on Haley, but the question is meant more for Kira than the pup. Dick needs to know what clock he’s outrunning. ❛ I’ve got some good news and some... less-than-good news. ❜ he approaches her with the same restraint he uses for cornered animals. which, alright, fair approach, given their circumstances. but that’s not him. that’s not the person he wants to be. ❛ Which one do you want first? ❜
A STARTER FOR SHIROGANE KIRA * @wistrea
#MUSE: DICK GRAYSON * it’s always been about catching people when they fall.#wistrea#bro did not even remove his suit yet straight to business#his heart is compassionate enough to welcome her to his apartment and allow her to rest on his bed as he crashes out on the couch#but still shoutout to logic he treads extremely lightly & carefully to this entire thing#rumor has it that one of the notes pinned to the fridge has a small smiley face at the end#and it reads:#“I’ll be out from about 10 PM until late morning. Patrol stuff. I’m also going to try to gather some intel on the case.#I know you’re great at staying hidden but my advice? Don’t move. Just stay safe. That’s all I really want.”

What is one significantly silly thing Vegeta enjoys either doing or watching?
//His guilty pleasure is watching soap operas, there's just something about the overly dramatic music, the way tv characters get themselves into ridiculous situations, the evil villain plotting some juice plots. He gets a kick out of them. There have been times he comes across someone watching a novela and he just lingers, he might comment how stupid it is but he'll pay close attention to what's going on.
#long-haired-hottie#answered;#Vegeta is a secretly a chismosa okay?#its part of the old days of gathering intel and getting dirt on people#his past has a funny way of sticking around tho in different ways now lol#and novela villains are just top tier evil and entertaining to watch#hc;

Alex Summers, waking up in a government building with a bunch of medical stuff attached to him and surrounded by strangers: This isn’t good, I need to get out of here asap
Team macgyver, minus one key member, panicking and wondering why the hell Mac just attacked someone and then ran off and has all but disappeared.
The one unfortunate guy at the Phoenix institute who happens to look a lot like Stryker, nursing a black eye.
Murdoc, eyeing the situation curiously and thinking now would be a great time to find Mac and have a little chat.
Meanwhile
Angus Macgyver wakes up in a world not his own, surrounded by rubble
#why is actually writing this fic so difficult?#like I need there to be several misunderstandings but Alex keeps gathering intel before doing anything drastic#instead of just noping the fuck outta there#also I can’t decide wether or to write Mac’s adventure or leave it up to the imagination#but I mean the potential for some lovely and probably extremely cathartic whump is right there#xmen apocalypse#alex summers#macgyver (2016)#angus macgyver

i want so badly for jay to get separated from the crew because it would be so funny to get jay's perspective as she's on her own doing whatevwr vs chip and gillion's perspective who are completely useless without her
#jrwi#jrwi riptide#jrwi jay ferin#jrwi chip#jrwi gillion tidestrider#like imagine she decides to go back to the navy to gather intel for the war#and to inevitably face her family#and we see her dealing with that and being super smart and cool#and then just. chip and gillion#who once spent an entire night eating black sand and healing themselves so they could eat more#bc i'm convinced jay is 90% of their impulse control#they might die without her actually but like it would be funny
