#but i didn't recognize any of the names :/

[oblivious-aro]

Well, now I don't trust any other sources on DP ship names. I gotta know what they are, according to someone who's actually in the fandom (you)

You needed some shipping info, so you came to the mutual with 'aro' in their name. Somehow, this makes sense.

Amethyst Ocean is Danny/Sam, as you already know (by far the most popular ship), while Danny/Tucker's is Savant Par (apparently its areference to their intellegence levels, Tucker being "savant" with tech and stuff, while Danny is just on "par" with the average Joe). I think I've heard of Veggieburger being used for Tucker/Sam, but that's not a super popular ship, so I don't remember if people actually use that one. Dany/Valarie is Gray Ghost.

Everlasting Trio is Danny/Tucker/Sam. College Trio, while not a ship, denotes Jack & Maddie & Vlad (I didn't get any search results, but I'm pretty sure I've also seen them referred to as Golden Trio). Haven't really seen any consistently used ship names for them.

I think this one's pretty recent, but Cheese Melt's used for Danni & Vlad (I don't know if that's adorable or horrifying).

I occasionally see Pink Astronaut for Danny/Paulina, and Phantom Satellite for Danny/Star (self-explanatory), and also Swagger Bishie for Dash/Danny (apparantly it's a weeb thing). That last ship is extremely popular, because this fandom has no taste.

Pompous Pep is the depressingly popular Danny/Vlad ship. Badger Cereal's the platonic not-terrible version.

Amethyst Ocean, Gray Ghost, Everlasting Trio, Pompous Pep, and Badger Cereal are probably the names you see avian my being used the most.

Basic list under the cut

Amethyst Ocean - Danny/Sam

Savant Par - Danny/Tucker

Veggie Burger - Tucker/Sam

Gray Ghost - Danny/Valerie

Everlasting Trio - Danny/Tucker/Sam

Golden/College Trio - Maddie & Jack & Vlad

Cheese Melt - Vlad & Danny

Pink Astronaut - Danny/Paulina

Phantom Satellite - Danny/Star

Swagger Bishie - Danny/Dash

Pompous Pep - Danny/Vlad

Badger Cereal - Danny & Vlad

you ever realize you never properly learned how to say a character's name, so by the time you finally HEAR it, you have no idea who they're talking about? cause I feel like I keep doing this and it's very confusing to keep being corrected like that

Going crazy about Inkdeath chapter 56 Fire and Darkness. The last one and a half page is so subtly gay I'm rubbing my little hands together like a wee gay fly. Orpheus calls forth the nightmare, who's actually Basta, by calling him his good dog (or, in the Polish translation, good doggie). Because "he broke [Orpheus's] heart". Once Dustfinger collapses, the nightmare "bent over [his] motionless body, snuffling like a disappointed dog". Later, when the nightmare notices Mo, Orpheus ONCE AGAIN goes "Back, dog!" (or, in Polish, Heel, doggie!, I really don't know which version is worse and by worse I mean *starts convulsing*).

Like, first of all, *continues convulsing*. Second of all, ohhhhh my god, the nightmares being made of souls of men so evil that the White Ladies could not wash them clean... Cornelia you cannot do this to me. Not when there are so many fucked up dudes in this book and yet you yourself singled Basta out as the one who's been taken in by the first book's Big Bad as a boy, and he, to quote the German wikia, "sees him as the kind of father figure he would tear his own heart out for". I need to lie down hold up. I mean it's just like Orpheus to write something like that, the man is a unique sort of a cunt, but also--oh shit wait Orpheus is almost definitely younger than Basta. And it just seems like Basta was Orpheus' prison senpai? But there Orpheus is, writing him into his horrible murderous monster dog. That's kinda sexy.

Have I mentioned I'm in love with how the nightmare kills. It was SO coolscary to me as a kid, like

"A Night-Mare? But they kill through fear, nothing else. I’ve seen it!" "Yes, but only if they’re prevented from eating their victims. They eat them, too, if they’re allowed." Mo had once given her a dragonfly’s cast-off case. Every limb could still be traced under the empty skin it had shed. There wasn’t much more than that left of Snapper.

Isn't it amazing!! You're doing great sweetie <3

(If she ever gets patrons who tend to make frequent 'appearances' on the news, how often does she recognize them, and how awkward are those interactions? Does she ever report them to the GCPD or feel tempted to do so?)

send me questions you have about my character!

You'd think a waitress in a demanding job would at least have a somewhat decent memory when it comes to recognizing faces but honestly? Khare has a horrible memory and isn't likely to start remembering faces unless they are REALLY distinct (or have visited enough times for their appearance to register in her brain). Seeing the Joker himself strolling in and ordering up some pancakes is the most you can expect for her to acknowledge there's a serious fucking situation on hand but after that? Forget it, she's not likely to make the connection.

However, this is Gotham so chances are that at least somebody's going to rock up at the diner in their costume. Khare may be so preoccupied about getting their order right that... you know, it's going to take a minute or two to catch on that something's not right about their appearance, but she can't quite put a finger on it. Alexa, play the Jeopardy! Think Music! It's probably more awkward for the patron visiting that everything is so calm - The waitress isn't screaming bloody murder or jamming the silent call button beneath the counter to alarm the police that trouble is there, she's just smiling and doing her best to remember their order, just as they want it but on the off chance she does recognize somebody... she really, really doesn't want to call the GCPD and cause a scene, because really, nothing's happened.... yet, and the thought of police taking her statement and asking awkward questions is a far more frightening prospect than the Mad Hatter asking for a pot of tea, because... you know, she's an illegal immigrant at this point, and if she calls the police, who's to say she's not joining them in jail after her shift ends? Having a bad memory makes life difficult but in Khare's case, it might have saved more than a few potentially dangerous situations from blowing up as a hungry rogue gets a tasty meal without any screaming or overhearing any hushed calls begging the GCPD to arrive, because even criminals need to eat and boy, do most people feel a lot better after getting a proper meal inside them!

Oh you know, just laying on my bed wondering how the news the Nashville shooter was trans and targeted a Christian school will escalate my already deteriorating safety.

[ubike-official]

And uhhh, yea now we're finally be fr about the "hey we met on a dating, lets be so fr about what our experience has been" uncharted territory besties. we're not at "so what are you looking for?" but i already essentially told him my approach is to just really try getting to know ppl i find interesting and letting a spark develop from there w/o pressure. kinda like in school where you consistently see people in casual settings. and he thought it was a good plan so uh. here we are.

Dice of the Day (For Friday May 24th)

I do want to try to do these on game day, but this week's session ended a major story arc and had a lot of twists and I needed a few days to process it and recover from the adrenaline crash. So sorry about the delay.

Anyway, let's see what's in the bag 'today!'

(I don't drink btw, the Crown Royal bag was what my Tuesday group sent me some dice in a few Christmases ago)

Disclaimer: A lot of dice in today's bag are from Kraken. They were purchased before I was aware of the big controversy around the company. I still love the dice I have, many of which are unavailable now anyway, and I will still give credit where credit is due. Please come to your own conclusions and make your own decisions regarding the company.

Grey marbled dice, I think from Chessex. (link not available)

Ethereal Fairy, from Kraken's mythical kickstarter. (link not available)

Gumball, from d20Adventure on Etsy.

Unicorn Tears, from Kraken.

Unknown glittery purple dice

Ethereal Kraken, from Kraken's mythical kickstarter. (link not available)

Unknown blue dice.

Confetti Cake, allegedly from Chessex but I can't find a link from there, so the ebay link will have to do.

Unknown greenish blue dice.

And a misc. set. Of note are the bone d6s from Viridian Dice, the Rainbow Numbers d20 that I think is from DND Dice (probably came in a blind bag or something), and the liquidcore fish bowl d20 that I tragically can't find again.

Someone's playing Rush E on the school piano

[greystend]

Batman, panicked by how much the villain knows about him and Jason, decides to infiltrate the Red Hood's gang with his Matches Malone's identity

Jason *oh shit he found out* : wtf wtf wtf is this a joke ? Are you making fun of me ???

Matches!Bruce *oh fuck he's even more unhinged than planned* : ... I don't understand, boss ?

Jason, struggling to find his words in way his men won't understand : you really thought I wouldn't recognize my own fa- urgh I mean genito- wait that not- hum, the guy that raised me ???

Matches!Bruce *wait oh shit the OG Matches Malone had a kid ???* : wait... *I don't even know his name!!* chum, I had to make sure it's really you, I wasn't sure, you understand ?

And then their relationship get better

except Jason is "argh I hate you but also you kinda made the effort of meeting me in my turf and also you didn't say anything about the killing so perhaps..."

and Bruce is like,"Oh shit I accidentally adopted the Red Hood, and also it's my fault his real father is dead, except he doesn't know that and must think Matches just abandoned him one day without any explanation. Also I should really figure out his name at some point"

Phantom letters - DPXDC PROMPT

The bats wake up one day to the internet going crazy; people around the world were getting letters from they're diseased loved ones. The reactions are mixed, from people being outraged for the "prank" to people crying in melancholy at getting closure.

All the letters have something in common: They're closed with a green sealing wax that had an stylize DP and the name Phantom beneath it. Posts about the cards were using the # Phantom Letters.

The bats are discussing the viral posts in the cave when Alfred comes holding a basket filled with letters, announcing they were left at the doors. The letters had the sealing wax that they recognize from the posts. Checking the cameras they can see how they glitch before the basket appears.

Alfred starts to distribute the letters that had only one destinatary. Letters from each Thomas and Martha to both Bruce and Alfred. Letters from each John and Mary to Dick. A letter from Catherine to Jason. A letter from the Drake's to Tim, and another one to Bruce.

Once they had calmed down enough from the shock, Alfred proceeded to read the shared recipients. From Thomas and Martha to "The grandchildren we never got to meet." From John and Mary to "the family that took our little Robin in." Letters from Catherine to "My little boys family." The letters were directed to people the deceased didn't get to meet.

As much as the mere existence of the letters tugged at their hearts, they decided to not read them until they verified that the handwriting actually belong to the ones it claimed. They checked each letter, and in the end confirmed the letters were in fact from they're lost love ones.

After much discussion, each person makes the decision to read they're own letters later in private, and they proceed to read the ones that shared recipients out loud. The letter mentioned specifics like names and events that the deceased shouldn't have been able to know, including they're vigilante abilities, which had them pause each time to panic a bit. But what was more interested were certain pieces of the letters that mentioned a Prince Phantom.

"Prince Phantom said to don't mention things past our death, but it wasn't a command, so we're hoping this won't be much of a problem." - John and Mary

"I still can't believe Prince Phantom is letting us do this, but I'm so glad." - Catherine

It finally paints the mystery in a more concerning light when at the end of Thomas and Martha's letter there is a call for help.

"We're sorry for ending the letter on a serious tone, but seeing the kind of job you all get involved in, we wanted to ask: Could you please help Prince Phantom? Phantom had asked us to not give information about this, but he's so young, and has already been hurt so much. Please, check on Amity Park, Illinois."

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

Meanwhile, team Phantom has decided that they needed to get the news about the GIW out of Amity and ask for help. Two problems:

the GIW blocks any technological attempt made.

People might be afraid to learn that ghosts exist and side with the GIW.

As a way to deal with the public image, Phantom opens a possibility that the death have never had:

"All afterlives are open to write letters to their love ones that are still alive today. Nothing that includes threats, and don't go talking about the anti-ecto acts or Amity Park yet, we're trying to ease people into our existence first. Also, I know you all check on your love ones when the veil is thin, but please keep the things you shouldn't know out of the letters if possible. If you want your letter to be sent in the first batch, make sure to deliver your letter before the week ends."

Letters are a good way to reconnect people with the death, they aren't digital, and the GIW won't be able to intercept letters if they're send through inter-dimensional portals. Two birds in one shot.
