DoPT Addresses User Concerns amid OTP Implementation @neosciencehub #DoPT #OTP #RTIportal #Cybersecurity #neosciencehub

RTI Portal Undergoes New Changes In a significant move aimed at enhancing the security and efficiency of the Right to Information (RTI) application process, the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) has implemented a new one-time password (OTP) feature on the RTI portal. Announced on January 2, 2025, this initiative is part of the government’s ongoing commitment to ensuring transparency…

Seldom was his appearance in the life of another under a visage of familiarity and camaraderie――such was not natural of his nature; thus did he resign himself to a simple form of diplomacy: a distantly exchanged trinket on one's namesake day. There was no formal encounter needed this way, no unplanned interaction to disrupt his day; it allowed for pleasantries to exist in the shadows, and that was all he needed.

A mere note:

𝑨 𝒎𝒊𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒍𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒎𝒂𝒅𝒆 𝒊𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒇𝒂𝒓… 𝑪𝒐𝒏��𝒊𝒅𝒆𝒓 𝒎𝒆 𝒊𝒎𝒑𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒅.

𝐇.𝐯.𝐕

Attached――a simple sack of ebony, its singular tassel trimmed in a garnet hue. Within rested a volume, bound in a sturdy cover: a simple guide to, well, guidance――structure to one's class, perhaps. Only a jest. But, too, there resided within a flask of shimmering polish, purchased so that the oaf's gauntlets――and other belongings, of course――may survive his rough antics.

Linus hadn't been expecting anything for his birthday. It had never really been much of a celebration for years now, maybe going on a bit of a bender if everything lined up to make it so, but Lloyd had always tried to do something on the day because that's what big brothers did.

So, color him surprised when he found something left for him at the end of a more or less dull day. He knew it wasn't from Lloyd -- they'd met earlier in the morning, making plans to find a good pub when both their schedules allowed for it -- so it wasn't from him.

Eyeing the bag and note for a moment, making an idle pop noise with his mouth as he stalked around the desk until it was right in front of him, it didn't take long for curiosity to win out.

Squinting at the note, it took Linus a little bit longer than he'd ever admit to parse out the words. It wasn't as Saints' damned fancy as some of the scribbles he'd had the displeasure of trying to make heads or tails of, but the blended nature of it sort of threw him for a loop and forced him to reread the short note several times regardless. Fancy people and their fancy letters...

"Huh..."

If he sounded a little baffled to anyone else, that would be correct! Of all the people to find out when his birthday was, and then actually get him stuff for it, Linus sure as hell wasn't expecting it from Hubert. They didn't exactly get off on the best foot.

Opening up the bag now with intense curiosity, Linus scrunched his nose up a bit at the book -- though he supposed he shouldn't be too surprised about that. He flipped through it a bit, lingering on a few pages before he slumped down in his seat and let the open book rest over his face with a belabored sigh. Damn it, he was gonna have to read this, wasn't he? It looked long. Urgh, maybe he could get Lloyd to give him a summary? No, he'd probably get lectured about putting in the effort when it was a gift.

Eventually, the book started to slip off his nose, and Linus scrambled to catch it -- bent a few pages there, oops -- before it could properly fall to the floor. Setting it back down on the desk, the little note following to rest on top of the cover, Linus inspected the other gift he'd been given. A flask! Now, this could be nice! Popping it open and giving it a quick sniff, it was easily confirmed to not be any kind of booze, but it was still something Linus knew how to make better, immediate use of!

"Oho, it's on now, Hubie," he grinned to himself, mischief in his eyes, "Just you wait, I'm gonna return the favor so hard, ya won't know what hit ya!"

Revenant!Jazz thoughts Pt.2

Continuing from this post

This time, I’m thinking about Vlad and his reaction to all this. In the show he doesn’t particularly seem to care about Jazz in any way, probably because of his hyper focus on Danny and Maddie. I doubt he’s registered Jazz as a threat of any kind, much less to him.

If Danny winds up Bat-dopted, Jason or classic “Bruce stole another one” and the news catches wind of the new Wayne, Vlad would be livid. Danny is supposed to be his son afterall, doesn’t matter that it was Maddie who severely wounded her own son.

In the midst of Rogues dropping like flies, Jazz sets a trap for Vlad by baiting him with Danny. Her brother is never in danger, not with her around and certainly not with the bat family lurking nearby, but Vlad cannot help himself- he tries to kidnap Danny by overshadowing the adoptive parent. Jazz allows it to happen only until Vlad takes Danny out of the public eye, then straight up punches Vlad out of the person he’s overshadowing, sucking him up into a thermos she stole from the GIW and throwing it into an abyss.

Wouldn’t someone recognize Jazz then?

Beyond the walking dead look that came free with reanimating, Jazz walks, talks and looks completely different then she was in life. Memories shape us and without most of hers Jazz wouldn’t be quite the same anymore. Where she once walked with a relaxed gait and a calm demeanor, as a Revenant Jazz masters the murder strut, because that’s pretty much the only thought going through her head on a constant loop….Other than ‘make Danny Safe’ of course.

Who killed Jazz? (Asked by @someonebored0100 )

Originally I was thinking it would be either the Fenton parents in the GAV or the GIW, but then a delicious angst idea popped into my head….

Batman chasing down Joker led to him slamming into Jazz’s car, which resulted in her death and a new son for him to care for….

Batman says nothing when he brings in Danny, marks down Jazz’s death as a murder and does not go out as Batman again for a week.

Was Jazz autopsied?

Thee death rate in Gotham must be higher than any other city in the world, so the coroners embody (pun not intended) the phrase “overworked and underpaid”.

So no, she wasn’t autopsied, but they did make record of the punctured artery and removed the shrapnel by request of Batman for testing.

What happened after Jazz’s body disappeared from the Crematorium?

Bruce Wayne paid for the cremation personally, so it’s understandable the mortician would be Panicking at the very likely notion that someone stole a dead body paid to be cremated and sealed into an urn by Bruce Fucking Wayne.

If the mortician cremates an unclaimed body and slaps the wrong name on it, we’ll, add it to the list of morally questionable things he’s done as a mortician in a Gotham.

Thoughts about Jason’s reaction to a true Revenant?

Her veiny visage, with the broken sclera and eyes that seem to absorb light and give none back, horrifies Jason to the bone. Did he look like that when he dug himself out of his grave? Did the Pits actually do him a favor? It makes him wanna puke just thinking about how accurate his zombie jokes could have been… then makes him swear to stop telling those same jokes because clearly he’s no longer one of the walking dead if he looks better than this dead woman who looks just… horrifying.

Though once Jazz kills the Joker in the same way the clown killed Jason, he seeks out the Revenant and after doing some digging… swears to do whatever he can for her.

If this is Dad!Jason, then he’s very upset for Danny and Jazz’s tragic history.

No hardcover pairing this time?

Maybe? Doubtful, but it could happen. I don’t think it should though.

Does Jazz have a vigilante persona in this one?

Hmm, not exactly. She’s not tying to hide anything, definitely not her less than living appearance. She wears boots, a canvas jacket, jeans and gun holsters with hair that looks like a drunk toddler attacked it with dull scissors.

She doesn’t save anyone, not directly, but ending the rogues that killed so many earns her the name “Reaper” and it sticks.

What’s Danny’s reaction to all this?

We all know about the dark timeline that resulted from The Ultimate Enemy, Dan.

The Fenton parents are still hunting him down, Sam and Tucker are trying to move to Gotham, he’s been adopted by a Kevlar-clad billionaire furry who acts like a himbo with way too much ease for it to be all an act. He’s got a home that’s not an active threat to his afterlife and the food is the farthest thing from radioactive.

(Alfred Pennyworth nearly had a heart attack at the mere thought of a child eating radioactive food and that a piece of toast on his plate was a punishment.)

But… Jazz is dead.

It’s true that they hadn’t had the best relationship for the last few years, especially after his accident, but Jazz had become his rock. Sam and Tucker were his best friends, but they had no real idea what it was like to grow up a Fenton. Sure they had some context clues (was the giant portal entrance with the on-button inside not a giant warning sign?), but Jazz had kept him alive even as a kid herself.

She worked herself to the bone to make sure he had food to eat, some hours to sleep at night, and a shoulder for him to put some of the burden on her as Phantom. In the end, she hurt their parents to get him out of the lab and away from them.

She had died trying to get him to safety.

He’d seen her car, the wreck, the blood, the still radioactive substance he called his blood… he sat in the driver’s seat and cried for his sister- he wanted Jazz to tease him and call him ‘little brother’ again.

Sure, he had Cass now and several brothers, but nothing could ever replace Jazz.

It’s the thought that Jazz would be upset with him that keeps Danny from turning by his grief into a ghostly wail, to wreck everything and everyone.

Then he meets the Reaper. And he knows.

“Little Brother.”

What about the ending for Jazz you talked about?

That’s gonna be in another post, this one was getting long enough as is.

Remember this post from nearly a day ago (crazy long time, I know)

So apparently it did lead somewhere—

Stanford Cipher and his ba (Bill’s preferred parental term)

Stanley did not want to be in the picture, but rest assured he too has been kidnap-dopted

(Due to help by a lovely user, this is now called the S&C - Stans and Cipher - AU!)

You are 100% correct.

Countdown to 2025: Dec 2

This is set in the same AU as my story Over at Stark General. If you haven’t read it, Tony is a pediatrician and Bucky is a social worker and they have five foster children: Bruce, Natalia, Steve, Clint, and Barney. If you HAVE read it, this ficlet is set a year or so after Chapter 2.

Foster Family AU / Marvel - Winteriron / Sweater

Bucky’s eyes felt gritty and sandy from too long staring at the computer monitor, and his shoulders and back ached from being hunched over in his desk chair. He shoved his hand through his hair and squeezed the base of his neck. It didn’t feel as good as when Tony did it, but Tony was stuck at the hospital for another late board meeting, and probably wouldn’t get home until after all the kids were in bed. 

Just a few more files to write up, and he’d be done for the week. He’d handed over the on-call phone to Carol that afternoon, and Tony had promised that after tonight’s meeting, he would be home for three full days.

He’d just pulled the next one in the stack over and flipped open the cover when a tentative knock sounded on the study door.

Thank god, a reprieve. He didn’t even care what it was: Clint needing help with homework, Natalia wanting him to lace up her ballet shoes, Barney angling for a larger allowance, Steve with another note from the teacher... He’d take them all over another minute of casework. Bucky flipped the file closed again and called, “Come in!”

To his surprise, it was Bruce’s unruly mop of hair that peeked around the door as it swung gently open. “Bucky?” Bruce was wrapped in a sweater that was far too big for him.

“Hey, kiddo, come on in.” Bucky pushed his chair back from the desk in case Bruce wanted to climb up into his lap. It had taken Bruce months to be willing to tolerate being touched, much less seek it out, and then he’d spent a couple of years constantly hanging onto either Bucky or Tony whenever they’d let him, which was most of the time. But he’d been easing up on it over the last few months. Bucky was still trying to work out whether it was a sign that their youngest was finally beginning to develop stable attachment dynamics, or if Barney had managed to convince Bruce that wanting affection was only for babies.

Bruce came into the study, but didn’t climb up. Instead, he leaned against Bucky’s leg, picking at a hole in Bucky’s jeans.

“What’s on your mind?” Bucky prodded gently, when it seemed like Bruce wasn’t going to say anything.

Bruce pulled his hands into his sleeves to make sweater paws. “Steve says,” he started, and stalled out before trying again. “Steve says, he says you’re gonna ‘dopt him.”

“That’s the plan, yes,” Bucky agreed. Steve had moved in with them full-time a little over a year ago, when his mother had become too sick to care for him. A month later, they’d taken him on as a foster, when Sarah had passed away. “Now that he’s been with us for a whole year, we asked if that’s something he wanted, and he said yes.”

Bruce chewed on his lip, and this time, Bucky waited him out. “Are. Are you gonna ‘dopt me an’ Nat an’ Clint an’ Barney?”

“We asked Natalia,” Bucky said carefully, “and she said she would rather not. We’ve told her that she can change her mind on that at any time. You and Clint and Barney... are trickier.”

Bruce looked up at him, his eyes bright with unshed tears. “‘Cause we have dads?”

“Yeah. We were able to take you guys out of those situations, to help you be safe, but adoption is more permanent. We can’t adopt you without your dads’ permission, and I don’t really think your dad or Clint and Barney’s dad would be willing to give that to us.” Bucky considered. “If Mr. Barton ends up in jail again, we might be able to convince the government that he’s unfit, and make the offer to Clint and Barney. But I don’t think Barney would want it, anyway.”

Bruce shook his head in agreement. “No,” he said sadly.

“Your father,” Bucky said, picking his way through the minefield of a topic, “hasn’t been quite as bad as Mr. Barton. Not where anyone else could see it.”

Bruce nodded his understanding, sad and far too solemn for a boy of nine.

Bucky wrapped an arm around Bruce’s narrow shoulders. “Adoption is just a legal thing,” he said. “It makes some paperwork stuff easier. It doesn’t have anything to do with how much we love you. For me -- and for Tony, too -- you’re always going to be ours. Officially adopted or not, you’re our kids.”

Bruce nodded, but something in his eyes said he wasn’t entirely convinced. Bucky didn’t know what to do about that, except to keep loving them all. One day, hopefully, he’d get there.

From the other side of the house, Tony’s voice rang out, and pounding feet above their heads announced the imminent arrival of the rest of the family, no doubt accompanied by empty bellies clamoring to be filled.

Bucky took Bruce’s hand and stood up. “Come on, let’s go get some dinner.”

He reached out to turn off the desk lamp, and Bruce said, “Um?”

“Yeah?”

“C’n I... Can I call you Dad? Even if I’m not ‘dopted?”

Bucky pulled his youngest son into a hug, feeling a warmth that probably wasn’t Bruce’s sweater. “Absolutely.”

Furry Friend

Requested by Anonymous

Sam and Dean Winchester x little sister!reader (aged around 5/6)

Synopsis: you bring home something that surprises your brothers.

“Sammy look!”

“Uh, baby what is that?” Sam jumped up from his chair when he saw you toddle in, carrying a giant gray ball of fur in your tiny hands.

“It’s a kitty!” You grinned up at him, and Sam felt the blood drain from his face.

“Baby that’s not a kitty,” Sam rushed forwards, snatching the raccoon out of your hands, relieved when he noticed that it seemed calm.

“What’s going on in here?” Dean idled into the room, freezing when he noticed the bundle Sam carried. “New pet?”

“My kitty!” You whined, tugging at Sam’s leg as you reached for the creature.

“Hey baby, let’s leave that thing alone, yeah?” Dean lifted you into his arms, carrying you a safe distance from the undomesticated rodent.

“Can’t we keep him?” You whimpered, and Dean nearly melted at your stuck-out lip and puppy dog eyes. Nearly.

“No, honey this guy…” Sam held the raccoon away from his body, his nose wrinkling. “This guy belongs in the wild.”

“But I ‘dopted him!” You insisted, kicking your legs in an attempt to get Dean to put you down.

“Ok, tiger,” Dean chuckled, cradling your head as he began to carry you out of the room. “Well that guy wants to go outside, that’s his home. He wouldn’t like it here. So Sammy, he’s gonna go find that guy’s family and return him, and I’m gonna go give you a bath.”

“Thanks a lot, Dean,” Sam grumbled as he started for the door.

“Why can’t I keep him?” You whimpered, tears in your eyes as Dean turned the bath water.

“Well, like I said baby, his home is in the wild. He just doesn’t belong in a house like you and me.” Dean gestured for you to lift your arms, and when you did he tugged off your shirt, tossing it and the rest of your clothes into a pile that he was pretty sure he’d burn later.

“Well then can we get a kitty?”

“Nope,” Dean sighed, snatching up a loofa.

“Why not?”

“Cause I said so.”

Dani- look after my creator let most of my brothers and nearly ME die because we weren’t perfect and I only survived because my templet decided we where siblings even after I betrayed him, you kind of lose all trust in parental figures.

JL- wait your a clone

Dani- yeah my creator wanted the perfect son but my template said no to adoption so my creator tried to clone him. Too bad my creator sucked at cloning because none of us were stable. It was my templet who stabilized me, my creator left me to die just because I wasn’t his perfect son.

Slightly ignorant but well meaning JL member- how do you clone a boy and get a girl?

Dani- like I said my creator sucked at cloning, the clone closest to the original dissolved in direct contact with fresh air. It gave Danny nightmares for weeks, he nearly failed most of his classes he was so exhausted.

Batman- hnn. How old was your templet when all this happened

Dani- 14

Batman pulling out second set of Bat-doption papers-hnn

Batman acts as a secondary parent mentor to all the young justice members, so when a mentorless Dani Phantom joins it was only natural that he tried to be a parent mentor to her as well.

Because she's never had a parental mentor figure, Dani's very confused about what Batman's doing.

New character Intro:

Twig (a.k.a Brady)

This wandering shaymin once found himself lost in a region he was unfamiliar with when a mysterious storm separated him from the rest of his pack. Luckily for him, he was found and caught by a kind trainer named Brady. The boy was new at catching pokemon and- wouldn't you know it- Twig was one of the first on his team!

They traveled together for several years. One day, however, Brady and most of his other companion pokemon vanished. Twig has not said how or why.

Since then, Twig also dopted the name of his trainer as his own, and affectionately wears the boy's old hat. His leaves and fur have become somewhat cluttered and unruly, having turned brown from ages without proper care. The color even mirrors his emotional decline since the day his closest friends disappeared. But he still wears a smile to bring his one remaining friend happiness and to help them stay calm in the world's uncertain times. 

Twig is at least five times larger than the average shaymin, and is often mistaken as a bush or a dirty shrub by pokemon looking for shelter. Thanks to his own kind and sweet demeanor, those pokemon still find themselves in luck.

The gracidea flowers are now gone. Unless one was spared from the blight- or happened to be preserved somewhere- his sky form is forever out of reach. So he is no longer capable of flight.

[cityzenshark]

How to fix certain things in Earthspark

The dugout,

Dorothy,

Alex,

the triplet's relationship with their family

This is my own take, no hard feelings

1. The dugout.

Have the parents plan the dugout with Wheeljack while Nightshade, JB and Thrash eagerly joins building it.

No one should be 100% okay if their dopted child builds an underground bunker on their own and without telling them at all. What if the barn collapsed?

The security systems Hashtag and Nightshade install are done without guidance from Wheeljack, hence why the siblings get stuck inside for ten hours in 'Security Protocols'.

They could've called Wheeljack for help in that episode.

TLDR; anyting regarding the bunker should've involve Wheeljack. It makes his character more relevant than being just Twitch's Dad-2.

2. Dot should be a more strict mother.

Please know the difference between strict and abusive.

She's a veteran who wants a normal life as a forest ranger only to get roped back into Transformers issues without her consent. On the same day, her kids found newborn Transformers and want them to be family from the get go?

Have her relunctant about it and have Alex talked her out. Have her warm up to the twins gradually. She just found out her dream job is bait for GHOST. If I were her, I'd be angry for a week.

After she fully warms up to twins, the warmth is then immediate to the triplets.

She shows actual concern about the kids' cyber-sleeves. Have Dot monitor the sleeves herself every episode until she's assured they are harmless. Then have her and Alex be worried triple time after 'Disarmed'.

She knows about the events of 'Home' and have the kids grounded while worrying about Hashtag's mental condition. They were in the city for heavens sake -- Dot and Alex were bound to know!

Think about June Darby. June is rightfully concerned about the kids being involved with the Autobots. Raf nearly died to something normal medicine can't cure, Miko is impulsive around soldiers, her own son went to a desolate alien planet. As a teenager, I find June annoying. Now as an adult, I find the kids even more annoying. Dorothy should've been more strict than June and Fowler combined because she was directly involved in the Cybertronian war.

It makes more sense if she doesn't want her children involved directly with Cybertronians at all. With the Terrans, there isn't much of a choice but to rely on Cybertronians so the Terrans could learn about themselves.

3. Alex is the person the kids and Terrans first get info about the 'Bots and 'Cons & he's the family's reassurer (idk the suitable word to use here).

The point of his profession in Cybertronian history is only shown in episode 1. That's it. He should be the first person the kids go to when they want to know about a Bot or a Con and anything Cybertronian related.

Have him be more open about Cybertronians than Dot. Sure Dot is shown to be positive with Cons changing their ways because she's friends with a redeemed Megatron, but she's also seen the Cons' heinous actions so she's likely reluctant to talk about them/double standards.

Things like these can be offscreen by having dialogues mentioning them: "Dad says Optimus used to--" / "Dad told us--" bla bla bla

Mention his past connections with Meridian clearly. I have no idea about that until @monocle-teacup mentioned it.

3. Aside from each other, the triplets are closer to the parents than their older siblings.

Hashtag is close to Twitch but after 'Home', perhaps it's best to see her going to Dot for help and get a bit clingy.

Nightshade and Alex should have more screentime togather. Alex did introduced NS the book that lead him to the author's grave where NS gets their alt mode.

NS is essentric by copying the main character of said book. Kids often copy their favourite fictional character, so why not? And when they get into character, Alex plays along.

JB can be ruled out from this as he is close to Mo but something feels missing... I can't pinpoint where though.
