DP X DC PROMPT #24

Been a while since I wrote a prompt. Let's change that!

✦

Pen Pals

Red Hood comes across Cujo somewhere in Gotham (location and reason like feeding off of ambient ectoplasm, looking for a new toy, lost, etc are your choice). At first, he's kinda freaked out over this pup that glows Lazarus Pits green but slowly learns that Cujo is relatively harmless as long as no one threatens him or anyone under his protection. Kinda hard not to learn that since Cujo has been glued to his side ever since he found the pup roaming the streets at night.

Cujo eventually gets into Red Hood's good books when the sweet little pup turns into a rottweiler the size of a small house and nearly bites the Joker's head off due to him being his usual creepy, rancid self.

Once he's gotten comfortable enough around the strange dog, he gets close enough to spot a tag/nameplate that reads the pup's name along with "Belongs to Phantom" scratched onto the back in messy handwriting.

He thinks nothing of it until Cujo starts getting restless and Red Hood gets the feeling that he'll be leaving Gotham soon. So, given the dog is clearly supernatural and his tag had no contact information, he assumes Cujo is basically a free roam pet and is able to get back to his owner on his own.

The night before he feels Cujo is going to leave, he ties a letter to the pup's collar. The next night, Cujo is gone.

Weeks pass and he thinks of Cujo often, wondering if he made it back to his owner. If his owner got the letter. If this "Phantom" is similar to him. He doesn't think just anyone owns a Lazarus green dog that reeks of death magic.

It's not until he's out on patrol one night, almost two months later, that Cujo suddenly appears and barrels into his stomach. As the excitable pup slobbers kisses all over his helmet, he sees an envelope covered in stickers attached to Cujo's collar.

Looks like he's got himself a pen pal.

[eyesoftxmorrow]

Me, fellow Chai has ADHD truther, seeing your tags: YOU. 🎤 Keep talking?

YEAAAAA 🤝🤝🤝 im on my phone rn so this is gonna be kinda disorganized but just shooting off the cuff:

bro stims Constantly. the lil mimicking drum noises sounds he makes during the cutscene where he runs into QA-1MIL? stimming. leg bouncing while hes sitting? stimming. i also like to think he drums his fingers/hands on tables and stuff when he's trying to think thru something.

he can go from 0 to 60 back to 0 and it all depends on whether his brain decides to cooperate with him that day. he straight up just Cant do anything he isnt interested in doing (i mean. he could. but it'll take him a hell of a lot longer to do it than a normal person would) but he'll gladly pour hours into something if it catches his attention

he spaces out a lot 👍 i mean this is kinda canon already cause of the lil tutorial cut-ins which is REALLY funny but i think he just does that in general

forgetful as HELL but honestly doesnt mean to be. mac's probably suggested that he should write stuff down but lets be honest he'd probably forget where he put those notes anyway 😭

[rotisseries]

yeah zelda isnt happening. im very dedicated to persona rn and i havent even beaten hades. my switch consisntly collects dust bc no one plays games w me. and theyre not story oriented enough like persona is. i got thriugh 1 pokemon game and had to start over bc i couldnt beat the gym leader at the very end and havent touched it since. my adhd will not allow me

I understand this deep in my heart there are so many games I would sell my soul to get my brain to cooperate with me on

[hyperfixated-homo]

7,8,12,14, and 16 for the artist ask game (sorry for springing so many on you aosdjasjdq)

:00 thats a couple

7. A medium of art you don't work in but appreciate

already answered this one but ill do it again akdjaos. any sort of paint is super cool!! like watercolor and gouache and stuff. im also rlly into woodworking rn :)

8. What's an old project idea that you've lost interest in

i had a roleplay thing going with my friends on twitter for a bit. we called TETO (the entities and the organisation). it was AMAZING, i talked to so many cool people and i had so much fun playing my character (a scientist called Dr Olsson). eventually it sort of died off, and nobody really participated anymore. it was great while it lasted though. i wrote two fics abt it, i can link if ur interested (although it may be confusing without context skdjsod)

12. Easiest part of body to draw

literally just the collarbone. that one area is so simple. all the parts connecting to it are weird asf but i can do collarbones LMAO

14. Any favorite motifs

eyes. my oc (nonhuman one) is literally a void of a being with one singular eye. i constantly make references to “watchers” mentally. also i love possession plots where you can see it happening through their eyes. theres just something about the symbolism behind them that makes me happy

16. Something you are good at but don't really have fun doing

so imma be honest here, there isnt really any part of art i dont like doing. at worst, on some days i can get frustrated when my hands dont cooperate with my brain, but art is just sort of a fun thing to me. its one of my greatest sources of joy. whenever i do anything im practically always have fun lol (maybe this is a sign that i need to challenge myself more lmao)

ty for all the questions!!

ask me weirdly specific artist asks!

[jaekaicx]

gonna try to make a longer post abt this eventually

but amphibia n toh arent rly on even enough grounds to be fairly compared to each other (pls read tags)

Honestly I’m not surprised at the amount of people who erase Shuichi’s and Kaede’s bisexuality. There’s an unfortunately open view in the LGBT community that “bi’s are okay as long as they’re with someone of the same gender.” Put those kinds of people together with shippers, and you’ve got the people who will acknowledge a character as bi - unless they’re canonically interested in someone of the opposite gender.

I agree that shitty people can and often will look down on the mlw aspect of bi people and characters and that this is regurgitated by fandom culture a lot. It's such bullshit.

People will use Shuichi's bisexuality as a justification for their mlm ships but then suddenly clutch their pearls at the thought of Shuichi being with any of the girls despite the fact that they acknowledge that Shuichi is bisexual, and therefore inherently mlw, because of what you just mentioned: People thinking that bisexuality is only acceptable or good enough if the bisexual in question is in a mlm or wlw relationship.

|[What are your special interests?]|

Well theres quite alot mut I can list off the ☆extra special☆ ones ^^

Of course theres my most recent one which is Gregory Horror Show, which was introduced to me by a good friend of mine! I wasnt expecting to get attached to it so easily but now I'm in a brainrot.

Balan Wonderworld and NiGHTS, two of my BIGGEST hyperfixations I've ever had and they're still going strong! I actually got into NiGHTS because of Balan Wonderworld!

ENA, The one interest that made me go absolutely CRAZY with character designs. I think I have about like 28 ENA ocs.

My brain isnt cooperating with rn so that's all I got for now unfortunately ;v;
