DPxDC AU: Ellie was going to beat the shit out of this space cop if he was lying…she might just do it anyway but, like, fr she’ll throw down on Danny’s behalf.
Enter scene following a bad tandem clone + identity reveal where in Danny is captured and wounded, Ellie escaping just narrowly. She manages to get Sam and Tucker on her side and together the three of them save Danny. (Where was Jazz? Why couldn’t she find Jazz?)
Ellie has traveled all over the world, has seen its hospitality just as much as its hostility- besides Danny liked space right? Mostly, Ellie is panicking and, being unable to think of a place to take Danny while he’s bleeding out on her, she just goes… up. Out of the atmosphere and just beyond the satellites. It finally feels far enough away, tho she didn’t take them beyond the moon, she has limits to her paranoia thank you.
Imagine to her annoyance that apparently someone actually watches for biological materials leaving and re-entering the earth! Total Bullshit! She’s needed to make a number of trips back and forth to get Danny food and water and medical supplies- and she’s doing a damn good job of getting him stable. Too bad she hadn’t realized the ring guy following her sooner.
Turns out he’s “made a report” and “will find them justice” and “wants to help”. Yeah right. She throws down with him as best she can, and he clearly doesn’t want to hurt her so he keeps letting her get away with Danny in tow. Danny is sleeping through most of this but a few times he lets out a woop or a go get ‘em.
Eventually Hal calls the only person on the team with a single paternal bone in his body (even if it was only a single one most days). Pulling Batman into a spacesuit, into a ship and across the atmosphere shouldn’t have been that easy- though it was obvious how his agreement came immediately after Hal mentioned the wounded and entirely isolated twins he’d found.
#dcxdp#dpxdc#dc x dp#dp x dc#danny phantom#dc crossover#dp crossover#danielle#plz continue#I beg#by the time danny is recovered/comes to Ellie has fought all of his alien hero idols and he dies a second time#Ellie: if the green guy didn’t want to get punched he should’ve stayed in his own mind#Danny: el. that’s Martian man Hunter. el please say you didn’t#ellie regrets nothing and now Danny’s new coworkers all know where they stand#mixed results for bat adoption lmao#gl might even adopt tbh just to keep a better eye on her the guy seems chill#oh wait the male twin is over powered and has zero chill wait fuck batman give that one back

I love how Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse said “Anyone can be Spider-Man”. I love how it inspired everyone to imagine their own Spider-People, saving the day in their own universes, with all kinds of cool, interesting personalities and aesthetics and mutations and life stories and relationships. We all put pieces of our soul into these homemade heroes. We had fun. We found community. And then Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse said, “Wow, great job! You’ve really taken our message to heart. Well, get ready for even more of everything you liked from the first movie and a new message to complement the first. Anyone can be Spider-Man… and anyone can be pulled into a cult.”
So now we all have to contemplate whether our lovingly crafted heroes would ever be on Team Mandatory Trauma Because Martyr Complex or not and why.
#i for one made a second spider-person (diving belle) right after watching atsv#who IS on team mandatory trauma for reasons that make sense given her moral code and its context#her world has eldritch horror elements that give some of her enemies a sharper edge#and she has had to use lethal force#in a ‘stays true to her strict morality based around compassion nonetheless’ way like wonder woman#she’s used to tough utilitarian decisions#she’s learned that no hero can save everyone from intensely traumatic brushes with mind-breaking corruptive power#so when miguel gave his big speech she was ‘yeah okay. i get it. sometimes shit just happens’#it was actually very enjoyable going through the character creation process#from the starting point of ‘WOULD chase miles and restrain him by force’#and then working toward ‘otherwise a genuinely good person and superhero who could be the star of her own series’#atsv#spider man across the spider verse#across the spiderverse#spider-verse#smatsv#sm: atsv#spiderverse#spidersona

(Leo speaking to Hephaestus:)
Leo: I used to think I was creative. I used to think I was smart. I used to take pride in the things I invented. But it’s just you, isn’t it? Everything I’m good at, everything I like about myself, it’s just your powers I inherited. If I wasn’t your son, I wouldn’t be able to do any of this. I wouldn’t be good at anything.
Leo: I thought that I had earned this. That I had learned when my mom taught me about machines, that I had built my abilities myself. But it’s all just shortcuts and fakery. It’s just god magic. It’s not real. It’s not mine.
#like it’s one thing if your power is water attack or turn into bees or something inhuman#but I imagine a lot of demigods have crises like this one#with powers that enhance qualities they already had so they’ll never know who they would have been without a god making them ‘better’#like if Annabeth’s power is her intellegence? she can’t even take credit for her own mind (by this logic)#for a non-charmspeaking Aphrodite kid with a less unnatural level of making people like them?#when you can’t tell what is and isn’t magical affects then how do you know anyone would ever like you for your normal non-goddy self?#what about Hypnos kids who wish they didn’t constantly feel tired and could manage to Do more with their lives?#like imagine your special magic godly enhancement is Cannot Stay Awake and it’s a struggle to complete even simple tasks. thanks I guess.#there’s probably examples I’m not thinking of#but powers that enhance rather than add??? it’s like there’s parts of your identity that don’t belong to you#at least that’s how I would feel about it probably#percy jackson#heroes of olympus#leo valdez#hoo leo#pjo hephaestus

i think an intrepid heroes season of brennan at his never stop blowing up insanity would delight every player but lou. i think lou would lose his mind and we might never see him again
#i think emily would have the time of her life and also break the game immediately#murph might finally relax. if you think about it like the murph ally devise#and zac/siobhan would come up with extremely relevant and thematic characters#lou would go into his own mind for safety and he’d never come out#nsbu#d20#brennan lee mulligan#intrepid heroes#mine

So sick of being the only one who comes up with my sorts of fanfic ideas like wth...
#sophie speaks#i have an idea for a twst fic#had it for a while actually but the new skully character is making me think about twst again because nightmare before Christmas peak#where reader is yuu from twst obviously and like the stories over ur finally going home and then instead of ending up home#u get told that u screwed up the worlds balance and now in all the fairytales the bad guys won#and like the queen of hearts chopped off alices head snow whites poisoned and disfigured etc etc#and ur told u have to go in and fix the plots and basically revive a bunch of dead heroes and set things straight if u want to go home#and then the guys dont remember u at first but as u go along the story u make friends/lovers w them again or whatevers and they remember u#its very much inspired by shinyjr's damnation au because i loved a lot of her ideas but its still my own thing yknow#idk i just think itd vibe heavy#its on the mind ngl#ill finish the chapter today tho then i can daydream lmfao... hate editing might just go back to grammarly

the thing about rio is that she's not the trope of like a "super sensitive person stuck in a violent job but they want to escape". she's complex, sure, and there's layers to her that's more than just lady death, there's sensitivities there, but... she's not a hero by any means. she's also not an anti hero at all. she isn't going to help superhero types unless something's in it for her.
i mean, sure, the job isn't always fun. she hates ghosts and the concept of being part of someone's unfinished business isn't appealing. it gets in the way sometimes and seeing traumatizing things day and in and day out can get tiring sometimes. obviously she has a heart under all of that. she falls in love, she comes to trust people. she wants to be held gently and kissed and treated like she's a person. there are very few people who have ever gotten that close to her. very few who have seen that side of her.
but, on the flip side of it... she's a little evil. she's definitely crazy. but that's the fun part. rio may not kill people that often, but it sure is fun to watch!
#honestly as a villanelle girlie of course i love rio like#they give me the same vibes sort of you know#💀⋆˙ seven devils. ━━ ( study )#shes just so interesting LMAO#because if your muse is a hero she isnt just going to try and kill them#but she will stand in the background and giggle and maybe sabotage your Hero Antics for fun!#also keep in mind all of this is from my own perspective#i havent read any lady death comics and probably wont#so i can keep my own version of her

thinking about how they could've ruined madalena's character so many ways in galavant but they didn't < 3
#madalena#galavant#if they had gone through the richard love interest route that'd have been very not interesting and they could've also just made her the#bitch character which would've made me so mad#but they give her backstory! complexity!!! < 3#I used to be doubtful about the maybe you're not the worst thing ever scene and thought that may be them considering richard x madalena but#later changing their mind (which idk if true)#but now I think it's great bc it has her opening up a bit when he's talking to her as a person and on their own rather than trying to push#any romance#and then she closes back up when he starts doing that again and we see her sad face after 'being forced to be the bad guy'#it's a great way to show pre- kidnapping madalena and show she's not one or the other she's both#anyway#LIKE madalena has trauma the way a traditional male hero would have trauma if that makes any sense

sorry to post a negative wof thing but sometimes i remember the “morrowseer is moonwatcher’s dad but no one knows or cares, its just this quirky trivia thing” bit and get irrationally frustrated. like if you didnt have any ideas on what to do with that tui then you couldve just. not done it.
#it literally makes no sense why she shouldnt know beyond ‘’some stray thoughts her mom accidentally let out’’ either#like ok iirc secretkeeper was barring her own mind from her. however she did that#but youre telling me that No One Else ever thought about morrowseer and his crimes#none of the nightwings none of the rainwings no one ever thinks about the queens right hand man#who orchestrated crimes against dragonkind and ruined so many lives or was a hero to some of them#no ones ever spared that guy a second thought?#or like- did no one know secretkeeper was morrowseers wife? did no one connect the dots that her secret baby was probably morrowseers secret#secret baby? its not like no one knew she was pregnant with his kid right???#NO ONE that ever looked at moon and directed hostile thoughts abt her that affected her self worth ever went ‘’oh shes morrowseers baby#of course SHE was spared our same trauma’’#NO ONE HAS THOUGHT ABOUT HIS CRIMES???? NOT A SINGLE ONE???#wouldnt this contribute to her mistreatment and anxiety since he used his supposed power to hurt and manipulate people??#but…. no tee hee its this silly little bit of trivia we wont delve into#like. again…. you didnt HAVE to make morrowseer her dad!!#like it comes across like tui came up with the idea of having the new protag be related to the previous antagonist and thought it was cool#but then didnt have any real ideas beyond that so she just made it this weird unspoken ironic fact?#like…. no i dont think its this ironic scene that she finds his literal corpse in the volcano and doesnt know its him#and doesnt seem that horrified by it#she should see that and feel incredibly complicated and disgusted feelings

soooooo popping into your ask box -- do you have any ocs youd like to share more about? :D
OMG HIII! YES—i in fact do! meet tala (first image—she’s green) and her sister, ligaya (second image—she’s yellow) my dc ocs!
i talked about tala here but to give a summary: she’s a filipino-american that’s OBSESSED with magical girls that when she gets power from being green lantern (aka has the ability to construct anything from her imagination) she pretends to be a magical girl called “sentinel stars” contrary to popular belief, the stars isn’t (just) a reference to sailor moon, but her name, which means goddess of stars. her mom named her
while she does her best to appear an optimistic person (as a symbol of peace as a “magical girl”), in reality she struggles a lot with loneliness. since her mom’s death, she’s been on her own. her dad is always busy with getting shifts for work whereas her sister, ligaya, pushed her away from their once close bond. anime is her way to fill the lonely void and being a magical girl (hero) lets her pretend to be someone she’s not: a lovable person
for ligaya—her name means happiness. yet, she’s the opposite of happy. emotionally distraught from her mom’s death, she pushed her family away. the best way to put her demeanor is batman—forever haunted by her mom’s death. it’s only by joining cheerleading in high school does she become happier; she found a support system. where she isn’t reminded of her mom’s death. she spends all her time surrounded by ppl while tala is alone
it’s good that ligaya has that support system. because in universes she doesn’t… lets just say she doesn’t end up being the best (in an au, she becomes a yellow lantern, which is fueled by fear. she uses her own fear to fuel herself and control others in her desperation to keep People Safe. they’re green lanterns worst enemies. but ligaya is tala’s sister no matter what universe she is & when she uses her powers to keep her safe despite being opposite sides on the battlefield… she’s only more convinced of that)
ligaya does care for tala though. when she’s injured, she’ll look after her injuries (despite her complaints). she’ll toss things at her face—but they’ll be tala’s favorite manga. and even after everything that happened… when tala is crying, she’ll sing her favorite song and hold her to remind her little sister she’s not alone
#dc#dc comics#dc comics oc#crqstalite#asks#ligaya tolentino#tala tolentino#dc green lantern#green lantern corps#green lantern#yellow lantern#lanterns#hope u don’t mind me rambling op#i know ur not into dc but i couldn’t resist talking about them.. im very proud of them; they’re smth i created in less than a few weeks#if tala had her own comics she’d be an unreliable narrator & claim ligaya is a bitch (& characterize her as a stereotypical cheerleader)#but she’s sm more than that; she likes makeup & gossips but she’s charismatic & funny & loves supernatural stuff & keeps the house clean#when no one else does#she’s athletic & gives tala tips on training 4 when she’s struggling & provides advice if asked#& when she discovers tala’s hero identity while she threatens to tell their dad she refuses to tell anyone when actually confronted w/ that#she gives ideas on how to utilize powers & reports latest crimes & suggestions how to help and everything#she’s mean but she cares. so so much#she’s just tired of her heart bleeding for the ones she losts

I’ve been obsessed, obsessed, obsessed with Raisha for a while now. I know you’ve said little things about her in the past and i want to know what’s up with her/Gerathon if you’d be willing to talk about it.
I really like Raisha as a character, too! We know so little about her, but in my opinion, she's one of the most fascinating characters in the series. Unfortunately, she meets a sad end in A Revised History of Erdas.
All we know about Raisha post-infection is that she was present at the final battle in The Burning Tide, still under Zerif's control and in pretty bad shape. She vanishes off the grid after that, never mentioned again, not even in the concluding montage of Great Beast summoners reuniting with their fallen spirit animals. My retelling offers some closure, but not the good kind.
In my version of events, Raisha is flanking Zerif when he emerges from the ship with his Great Beasts. Zerif, in an act of cruel irony, saw fit to keep Raisha by his side even in her mindless, infected state. Shane, up in the archers' keep with Abeke, hardly recognizes the girl who helped steal Halawir months earlier. Later, she reappears to restrain Abeke when Zerif brings the defeated Redcloak forces to the Wyrm. When the Wyrm is killed and the parasites lose their power, though, Raisha collapses to the ground and doesn't get back up. The Wyrm had pushed her finite body to an extent that it couldn't recover from. Many people and animals in Zerif's army are the same; their possession eventually killed them. The Wyrm was a child playing with toys, the mechanics of which it couldn't possibly understand. Thankfully for it, its parasites could go on controlling a body in the event of an untimely death. Indeed, Stead raises the possibility that Raisha had been dead for some time, and the parasite was only animating a corpse.
Like I've said before, I didn't do this out of dislike for Raisha or anything like that. She was ultimately another victim of Zerif -- a young, lonely, impressionable girl he took advantage of -- and didn't deserve anything that happened to her. I'll always support AUs where she is alive and well. In my eyes, though, her story was always meant to end in tragedy. By the time she realized her mistake and reached for the light, it was too late.
Gerathon, after reemerging in Southern Zhong and feeling the loss of her human partner, disappeared into the brush and is currently at large. She is only an adolescent cobra at the moment, hardly a threat... but the Great Beasts are growing, and Gerathon's time will inevitably come again. (I like the idea of her becoming a maneater as she slowly regains her former size and power, terrorizing the locals and gaining a place in their legends.) Who knows how she feels about losing Raisha. I expect, under the excruciating pain that may one day drive her to madness, there is a sweet sense of relief.
#sorry this took so long to get out!#i've said it before but i do not think gerathon would take kindly to being a spirit animal and absolutely nothing can change my mind#if raisha hadn't died of her own accord gerathon would have ended up killing her to escape the confines of their bond#i've talked before ab how interesting it would be to delve deeper into how the great beasts feel ab being spirit animals#no longer independent‚ now bound#even if they love the children they are bonded with‚ do they ever wish to be free? would they leave them behind if given the chance?#i can sort of accomplish this with gerathon‚ who actually loses her human partner#although her feelings ab it are not as complex as the others' might be bc there is simply no way she would accept being tethered to a human#gerathon who once controlled a whole army of people like they were ants would never‚ and i mean never‚ endure a partnership with one#the others all might. even kovo and halawir might come to love theirs. but not her. never her#fun fact: long before i envisioned path of the heroes‚ i had a very different concept of a fourth arc that had raisha as the villain#(truthfully it was gerathon manipulating her)#this was a next gen arc so the four heroes and all the great beast summoners were adults. their kids were the protags#in fact raisha's own daughter was one of these protags#crazy times lol#maybe at some point i'll share those very old plans. it's all hilarious and nonsensical bc i was 13 but#it paved the way for path of the heroes and for that i am eternally grateful. my sacred texts#text#asks#a revised history of erdas#spirit animals#spirit animals books#spirit animals series#raisha#gerathon#zerif#the wyrm#abeke#shane#stead

Thinking about bad ending cialink and gooooodddddd all I can think of is how it would end in Link's complete and utter destruction. Cia was already far past saving, but with winning the war and kingdom, she would focus all of her attention on breaking the hero and then remaking him in her image. After long enough, I don't even think he'd even try escaping anymore because he'd truly think that Cia is the only one who would ever love the pitiful excuse of a hero that he's always been
#cia would be the sort of person who'd 100% would want to own link in every single way she could think of#body. mind. spirit. all of it. all of it will be hers. not even his very body will belong to him alone anymore#would def take the approach of how much easier things are when you simply obey and learn the 'proper' way#cia quite literally owning the heroes spirit would be the literal WORST for the situation to turn out#sadly in this scenario I would have to think that zelda and impa would have to be dead cause there's no way they'd allow this :(#maybe lana would survive... only because she's never able to kill cia and it's far too late to save link. so she just gives up
