#What is Cilantro

As per usual, it’s 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. It’s very adorable, with his little ghost-shaped bucket and clearly homemade and already stained costume—listen, white only works if you can just fly over street grime or phase it out of your clothes—and his slightly I’ll 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 kid’s clearly exaggerated stories. The hero certainly never heard of him, but the kid’s mom confirms that Phantom really was the town hero, despite some mixed reviews of the poor guy.
“Did you manage to show him your costume?” the hero asks.
“Yeah! We went down to the cemetery to leave flowers and I got to show him my costume.”
Wait. Cemetery? Maybe it was part of theme, because Phantom had to be named that for a reason, but… it sounded like…
The kid ignores the suddenly VERY still hero and instead turns to his mom. “Momma, do you think we should bring him candy? He doesn’t get to trick or treat like we do, and I can work super hard to get him a bunch!”
The kid’s mom just smiles. “We could, but maybe we should bring him something homemade. I bet he’d like something more filling, teen boys like him have a hollow leg.”
The kid wrinkles his nose. “Like Vernie with the pizza bagels?”
“Like your cousin, yes. We can make some cinnamon rolls and take them to his memorial, maybe bring some of the apples from your grandpa’s garden…”
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 didn’t ask anything further.
Not that the hero didn’t want to. But they’d learn something very serious.
One—there was a small town hero they’d never heard of. Two—that hero was apparently a teen. Third—most pressingly, the teen hero was both beloved enough to have kids dressing up as him and dead enough to have a grave.
This… 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#he’s 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 she’s gonna be petty and add cilantro to everything#because Danny has the cilantro soap gene#jokes on her he’ll still eat it#Danny likes his little memorial in the grave. it helps settle him sometimes. also he’s gotten to know the security guards for the cemetery#they’re 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#dealer’s choice on what the GIW and why Amity Park isn’t on the radar#I’ll add my two cents bc when don’t I but I’m by and large not like… 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 that’s cute. anyways-#and if it’s dc I guess you need to figure out how the jl never found out. so#i mean there’s 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- jury’s still out on that -and he’s saving lives by just handling it himself#he can handle rhe metaphorical mega thunderstorms if it means he doesn’t 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

one of these days, I will not immediately out myself as a weird person who knows too many facts when meeting new people, or do so repeatedly when engaging with people I know---but not today. (tomorrow's not looking great either.)
#there are like. 12 example I could cite from the last month alone.#I'm taking an art class and as our ''fun fact'' the teacher had us talk about the food we hate#charming! quirky! a great ice breaker!#but yours truly heard someone say ''cilantro'' and immediately started talking about phenolphthalein and the absorption of aldehydes#you know. like someone cool who has it together.#then the following week I talked about dyscalcula and dyslexia and dysgraphia.#(and also ireland and the celtic tiger for some reason.)#a coworker was bragging about their child's internship and I responded that it was inspiring; and a cool name for a project!#inspired by greek mythology!#''.......what'' the coworker said.#then another coworker and I were talking politics and I mentioned that I wish they'd bring back trust busting#like roosevelt! I even referenced the political cartoon where he's carrying the big stick#and while she got the reference and understood I went red because who DOES that#anyway I just like information and sometimes can't keep myself from talking about it.#celestial emporium of benevolent knowledge

Never 4get that Jaden Yuki at age 15 doesn't know what a fiancé is and his friends just lie to him about it when he asks. He is completely baffled by the concept of riceballs. We need to remember that a vital part of this dudes character is he just straight up doesn't know things. This is the guy who gets baffled at the grocery store because he's never seen a kumquat in his life.
#jaden is the type of guy to admit with complete seriousness he doesnt know what cilantro is#yugioh#yugioh gx#ygo gx#jaden yuki#judai yuki#yuki judai#gx

#columbo#season 5#a matter of honor#thinking faces#he looks like a man pondering a homicide. in reality he is pondering what kind of chicharrones to order#columbo walks into the local taqueria and makes a production out of it. hand on his head furrowed brow muttering little nothings to himself#orders the same three steak tacos hold the cilantro every time#chili if ya have it

More on nutmeg tiger and pepper pangolin
I imagine that it started with pepper pangolin. She would watch nutmeg tiger from afar and try to work up the courage to confess. She never did, and probably never will, but eventually nutmeg tiger starts to fall in love with her. She won’t confess either. She’s too proud. So they kinda just stare longingly at each other. Nutmeg tiger is much nicer to pepper pangolin than the rest of her legion, everyone notices, and people have asked but she’s always on the defensive about it.
So they just…pin after each other and everyone else thinks it’s obvious so they start making up plans to make them confess because atp it’s annoying. Even cilantro cobra was starting to get tired of it.

i think energon tastes like that "battery acid spaghetti" thing where you mix strips of sour candy with monster. which is to say very upsetting to the tongue.
idk what battery acid spaghetti is but.. is it concerning that it sounds like it tastes good to me..........
#like.. mango monster is pretty good... and i really like sour candy.........#my fatal flaw is that i want to try tasting pretty much anything that isn't ginger or cilantro#u guys probably dont want to know what i ate yesterday

Y'all think Luffy would like durian fruits? Would Sanji even find anything useful to make with it or would he ban it from the ship just because the smell is so bad?
#i think sanji would actually like the TASTE of durians but he cant stand the smell it just makes him gag SO BAD#its probably mixed with luffy: he likes it but the smell for him is what makes him not like it#and speaking of food tastes#i like to think zoro has that genetic that makes cilantro taste like soap lmao#hes NEVER had cilantro before sanji joined the crew#so when hes sitting there as sanji is prepping he takes a little taste of it and promptly gags and claims#sanji was trying to poison him lmao#one piece#one piece headcanons#vinsmoke sanji#black leg sanji#monkey d. luffy

recently found out that although I have the bad gene that makes cilantro taste like soap, ground coriander doesn't have this problem because it's the ground up seeds and not the greens. if you are like me and can't taste cilantro, I highly recommend trying ground coriander so you can finally experience what cilantro is supposed to taste like.
#your mileage may vary#but i was amazed#like wow this is what I'm missing out on?#for years i thought everyone must be lying about cilantro because it literally tastes like soap to me#cilantro#coriander#personal

burmese culture is just people always talking about chicken eggs, fish and cilantro. Any conversation about food with anyone always ends up in those three. The polarizing brothers.
