@duskyashe​ here is my Raven (eldritch Nightwing) design from Encryptid/Calling All The Monsters! Drawn in sketchbook & colored on the computer. Feat. colored sketch and concept of how it looks in the dark. Very long details below the cut.
Firstly, the pose and drawing style used on the left is inspired by Lilo & Stitch, because of the description "He held his ready stance for a count of eight, then started relaxing parts of his body opposite how one would normally relax their body, starting with his legs and working his way up to his shoulders." which reminded me of how character weight was drawn in the movie opposite of how it usually is, keeping the weight rooted low with gravity and pulled towards the ends of the limbs.
The coloration concept is based off of animals that have direction-dependent color, the most famous of which is the blue morpho butterfly, but one which most people have probably also seen is the super black bird of paradise. So the idea of how that works in the wild is that tilting movements or seeing it at the right angle causes a disorienting flash of color, which I hoped to use here for Raven!Nightwing's eldritch illusion.
Tumblr media
His fingerstripes aren't strictly straight but more inspired by tree bark/veins/cirque du soleil costumes, where lines that curve across limbs make the poses look more twisted and fantastical rather than emphasizing the actual direction of the limb, which is what the straighter lines in most hero costumes are supposed to do.
His wingsuit structure as described is a snap-out style that he holds the ends of when he flies, which I've augmented with small electromagnets to seal the airspace between his arms and the wings, which can turn on and off with a current. The structure itself is similar to the draco lizard in nature, where the draco lizard has modified rib bones that hinge at the top of its wings and fold back down to its sides when not in use. The edges on the wingsuit have a soft tattered texture that helps silence the wings like owls' feathers, as well as obscure the outline a little.
I wanted to avoid showing human skin, so I used a full face mask and repurposed the Nightwing V into an abstract suggestion of a beak. His real eyes can either be disguised with colored lenses that match the stripe or can be white, but there are also decoy eyes scattered in different spots on the suit that have cameras. At first it was just the two on the sides of the head to increase peripheral vision, but I thought it would be super cool if Raven could just see in a bunch of directions and into small spaces like Emily Eyefinger just because he has several small working cameras in different locations on his body. Ravens and eldritch beings are both associated with eyes so it works? ^u^
Regarding the wing coloration, this was the last addition to the design. I considered eyespots, just as I considered larger wings, but I really wanted to avoid the design getting mistaken for Mothman from a distance. The premise of the AU relies on the power of belief, so people need to recognize Raven on sight and also believe he's an eldritch being, so I went with one big solid eye that no one expects just opening out of the darkness when you’ve done something wrong. Yikes. Raven knows where you sleep.

DPxDC Disney AU Week
One Week. 10 prompts.
Hello! I’m Dis aka @disillusioneddanny and with the help of two of the wonderful mods from the Batpham server—Gil and Kate, I would like to announce the summer writing event DPxDC Disney AU week!!!
WHEN?
August 21-25
HOW?
Each day has its own pair of prompts set in popular Disney themes. You can do something using both prompts, or just one! It���s completely up to you as long as it’s Disney themed!
---
Rules
Tag everything properly so people can avoid or search for your content. Content that is not properly tagged with Triggers or Content Warning will not be reblogged or accepted into the collection
You can create anything! One shots, fanart, anything you can think of that fits the prompt, you can create! If you really hate yourself like Dis, you can do multi chapter fics for each one if you so choose! Ship fics and gen fics are welcome! (Also DW I called myself out when I wrote this lol-Dis)
You can post things for a prompt later in the week, but not before.
You can participate in just one day or the entire week if you want!
No sign ups required, just tag your fics properly so that we can showcase them!
You can @ this blog so I can see it and reblog!
FAQ
What kind of fics are allowed?
Ship fics, family fics, platonic ships are all welcome. Everything MUST be properly tagged.
I have an idea for a Dreamworks au can I do that?
Yes! It’s only called Disney AU week because it sounds good! If you’ve got ideas from Dreamworks, Pixar, or even Studio Ghibli they are more than welcome to be a part of the event!
I can’t do the entire week but I want to do certain days, is that okay?
Absolutely! Make sure to post it the day of or after, don’t post it before the day arrives!
If you have any other questions feel free to send an ask!
Can i do just DP or just DC instead of DPxDC?
absolutely! This may be an event for the DPxDC server but that doesn't mean you have to do DPxDC! If you're more comfortable writing DP content--go for it! Same for DC content! Please still tag the works! We would love to see what you come up with!

hey blue <3 so i’ve been thinking about this for a while and i don’t know if it’s been asked before, but how do you come up with the titles for your fics?? they all have this air of catholic guilt and poetic power that just hits every time and i would love to know your process for coming up with them?
Honestly, it really depends.
Some of them have ties to real phrases ex. See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil -> See No Evil, Speak No Evil Family Doesn't End in Blood
Some of them are vagueish connections to the story's content ex. Laying Down the Sword is kinda a connection to Jason's never-ending fight against crime until he decided to walk away (Also a very, very loose nod to Joan of Arc, who also carried a sword and fought in a battle until killed young) Like a Barbed Wire Noose -> pain from throat bad enough to feel like a barbed wire noose (if you've ever had strep throat, you'll know what I'm talking about.)
Some were courtesy of friends ex. My Soul Follows My Decay @speaching Hellblazer's Apprentice @duskyashe The Devil's Eyes and His Voice Behind was someone in a fandom server I'm in but I can't remember for the life of me who it was right now.
Some are more just because I loved how they were comedic/ironic ex. Two Rounds of Shots (But One's Alcohol and One's a Bullet) Hamlet Has Nothing on Me! Evil is Subjective and All I Wanted Was Some Fucking Sliced Bread
Others were more as pointed towards DC elements ex. Burn His Kingdom and Salt the Ashes -> Bruce is "Gotham's Prince" so Talia and Jason knock him off his pedestal Crumbling Pillars, Failing Foundations -> The security and tight-knitted dynamics of batfamily are falling apart. Bruce's rule and reputation that were placed on pillars are crumbling as the family sees the truth; and the foundation of trust is failing because of this.
There are (yet to be seen) titles that come from song lyrics, so go listen to the playlists I have if you want to try and get a hint ;)
I explained a bit of the origins of Red is the Color of Sinners series' name in this post. But also, I chose that name because both characters have a strong connection to the color red and considering Jason is a priest in one DC timeline, I kinda imagined he has some ties to religion and just went ham on it. Since Matt says he has the Devil in him and Jason does commit murder, they're both sinners (Hurrayyyy good ol' fashioned Catholic guilt) :D
On another note, in terms as to how I come up with them, I worked a very boring job at a grocery store and used to daydream the hell out of stuff for my stories to help kill time. Either that or they just kinda come to me when I'm sleeping or doing something like taking a shower or doing dishes, and then it's a mad scramble to write it down before I forget lol. Occasionally they'll go through name changes but for the most part, they stay the same.

Secret Santa exchange 2023!!! (pt2)
Art works!
Brothers, At Any Age, Will Always Annoying by DuskyAshe (AshesGleamandGlow) For Moonfoxgazer.
Summary:
Danny Fenton wasn't always the youngest child. He wasn't always the only boy of the family. He also wasn't always this short. Through Clockwork's meddling, Danny finally has a chance to fix the first two problems with the last one, finding his long lost younger twin brother in the last place he would have ever looked—Gotham City, New Jersey. Though, he might not be able to fix that first problem just yet, on second thought... (NOT A FIC AT THIS POINT IN TIME, ONLY ART CURRENTLY. THIS MIGHT CHANGE AT A LATER POINT IN TIME)
Fanfics!
Bothersome Bonds by RaaorQtpbpdy for smallish_stuff
Summary: {includes art work!!}
Jason wakes up handcuffed to a stranger in an empty concrete room with no doors. Neither of them have any memory of how they got there, or who is responsible. Now, Jason has to work with this random civilian to escape—without revealing that he's a vigilante. And to make matters worse? He's super annoying.
Shoot Stars Make Crash Landings by Bewitched_Forest For TheStarfishAlien
Summary:
A brand new super villain known as Star-Kaiser has exploded onto the scene of Central City. How will his relationship develop with the Flash, Barry Allen, and, more importantly, Kid Flash, Wally West.

Danny Fenton attends a Wayne Gala with Vladimir Masters. Danny is a gremlin and the batfamily joins in the chaos.
Ghostly Shenanigans by Blue_Eyed_Dreamer For 44luna

Danny has never had a field trip not go wrong in some way. He doesn't see how the Wayne Enterprises Expo in Gotham will be any different. Unfortunately he's right. Fortunately, none of the goons have any experience with ghosts, so why not have some fun?

Fic Stats Game
Rules: Give us the links to your fic with the most hits, second most kudos, third most comments, fourth most bookmarks, fifth most words, and fic with the least words.
Tagged by @disillusioneddanny!! Thank you, dear 😊✨
Fic with most hits
Friendly neighborhood vigilante (dpxdc) - 121,979 Hits
Meet Jasmine Fenton: Smart, resourceful, kind and the very proud sister of Amity Park's own undead superhero Danny Phantom. Therapist at your service. Intern at Arkham Asylum. Can kick your ass. Likes tea and long walks at the beach. Meet Jason Todd: Smart, resourceful, not-that-kind (if you say he's soft you may get knifed) and the very proud vigilante and protector of Crime Alley. Died for a while but got better. Holds grudges. Likes reading a nice book and the sound of the rain against the window. They are neighbors now.
Second most kudos
Mondays, am I right? (dpxdc) - 7,695 Kudos
There was a long silence. He heard his sister breathe in, breathe out, like she was mentally preparing herself to say something. “I… I heard, from other interns I talked to, that guard positions are always open. And that it’s super easy to get in.”
Third most comments
Can't help falling in love (with you) (dpxdc) - 345 Comment threads
When a ghost does shenanigans, Jazz usually stays out of the trouble, since trouble is her brother's thing. This time? This time trouble found her in the form of a ghost that marries her to the Red Hood against her will.
Fourth most bookmarks
Can't help falling in love (with you) - 931 Bookmarks (including privates)
Fifth more words
Dance with me? (dpxdc) - 36,710 Words
Two strangers meet at a Wayne charity gala to raise funds for the Arkham Asylum Reform project. What they don't know is that they have much more in common than they think. “That’s it? One dance? It doesn’t seem that difficult.” He glared at her. “Why, you don’t dance?” “Not if I can help it.” He grumbled with distaste. “Why not? Not handsome enough to tempt you, Mr. Darcy?”
Although the first one is a translation??? If we dont count it, the actually fifth one is:
Of bats, dreams and human connections (Stardew Valley) - 35,904 Words
Maybe, in retrospective, moving to the middle of nowhere and become a farmer wasn't Liz's smartest idea. The worst part wasn't getting up early or doing housework or meeting new people, no - the worst part was having to bathe in sun cream every morning and pray no one noticed she didn't age or got tired or hurt no matter what. Did I mention that Liz was a vampire? Well, she was. And even if for some she was the stupidest vampire alive, in her defense she just wanted to make new friends. Fortunately for her, the local goth boy of the town may be available.
Least words
Submit (Lucifer TV) - 395 Words.
In a world full of Omegas, being a Beta might be nice.
Did this for a fandom bingo lmao. I truly am not a Omegaverse writer lol
This was fun! I'm tagging @gremlin-bot @duskyashe @redskyeatnight @spite-sapphic-starlight if you guys want to!

Happy New Year!
Now, the downside of running a double blind internal gift exchange event is that there really isn't much that we could tell you all while the event was in motion. However! Our gifts have now been given, and that means we can share what the Wondrous Wreaths and Sparkling Snowflakes have been up to this holiday season!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
We had six members participate in our event, and we were so glad to have them! We were also glad to get so many cool prompts, and so we thought that those of you who weren't able to participate in the actual gift exchange may still be interested in seeing those prompts and creating for them, just for fun!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
We do ask that if you use someone's prompt you give them a shout, just to be polite. Also, if you publish something on ao3, you'd be welcome to submit it to our Grand Gift Gathering 2022 collection, and if you publish here on tumblr, just tag @maribatserver and we'll reblog as soon as possible.
Now, for the part you've all been waiting for, the gifts!
@the-coffee-fandom made this gorgeous Damianette art for Tree.
@boldlyanxious wrote this delightful Timdrien fic for onlyanymede.
@duskyashe drew this adorable Roynette peice for Fairy.
@onlyganymede wrote this magical Marijon fic for Ashe.
@ktreereads wrote this classic take on Roynette for boldlyanxious.
@ive-tumbled-down-a-rabbit-hole wrote this angst with a happy ending Timari fic for Coffee.

Encryptid
by AshesGleamandGlow, DuskyAshe (AshesGleamandGlow)
The time has come. The Bat clan needs to know they're not what they thought they were, even if it means risking everything. If they're this effective at keeping Gotham safe and at peace, imagine what they could do with full knowledge of themselves and their limits? If only there was someone who could help them learn all they need to know...

The end of Superman by MariVictal For cementcake
Summary:
hope you enjoy it cementcake happy holydays
Fanfics!
Little Red Spider Hood by Cashmire For jaybirdscall
Summary:
Jason is working on taking over Crime Alley bit by bloody bit when suddenly a young hero wearing a suit made from sweatpants and a sweatshirt, of all things, literally falls into his life. Jason tries to talk him out of vigilanteism, he really tries. But if this kid is dead set on beating up criminals, then Jason can at least make sure he doesn't die. If Peter decides that he's going to get involved with the rest of the Bats, then that's on him.
Become a parent to mini gods by Cashmire For Bewitched_Forest
Summary:
John really needed to stop gambling with overpowered ancient men of indeterminate age. Now he was a parent to two ungodly powerful teenage boys. Who thought this was a good idea?
Love is a hand forged knife by Cashmire For fuckyeahphantom
Summary:
Danny meets this nerdy guy who offers to help him with his English homework. Not only is this man funny with way more appreciation for the classics than Danny has, but he's a great cook and he likes spending time with Danny. Maybe that's what leads him to take up blacksmithing classes and making him a knife. Little does Danny know, that's a sign of love and devotion for ghosts.
Tea and Sandwiches Fix Everything by RamblingGremlin For DuskyAshe (AshesGleamandGlow)
Summary:
Danny has to stay with his totally regular uncle and cousin for a bit. A gift for AshesGleamandGlow!

With the Ghost King fleeing to Gotham in hopes of begging for asylum for his fright, Bruce and his kids face the consequences of pretending to be real cryptids in a city filled to the brim with both the supernatural and the superstitious...

Team Bonding Gone Bat Shit Crazy
read it on the AO3 at https://ift.tt/2NgE3qU
by AshesGleamandGlow, DuskyAshe (AshesGleamandGlow)
Bruce honestly should have expected this from Hal, Oliver, and Barry. The fact all three of them had been listed as the organizers of the day's "team bonding" meeting really should have tipped him off to what was in store for him, but somehow, he just hadn't expected to find himself playing preteen girl games when he walked into the meeting room today. If he was going to have to sit through his co-workers wax poetic about his physical assets, well, petty payback was a game his children had delighted in teaching him how to play. He's just happy Dick was there to record the entire thing for posterity's sake, though he could have done with less laughter at his own expense.
