If Vicky had Amy's power, she would handle it better, if only because she wouldn't have Carol being quite so hostile and she wouldn't have her fear of a villain dad and her incest crush making her fear changing Amy.
But Vicky would probably be at risk of working herself so hard she'd burn out. Vicky wants to help people, wants to make the world better, wants to be a hero. And I do wonder if she'd feel like she disappointed Carol (regardless of if she did or not) by not getting a 'go out and fight' power. So she might push herself more. On the other hand, she wouldn't have had all the reasons Amy pushed herself (fear of herself, wanting to escape home, fear she was evil, etc).
But, if all she did was heal, Shaper would still be pissed at her all the same.
Vicky probably wouldn't be so worried about brains, either, so she probably heals Mark's depression, or tries to, anyway, at some point. And she is prone to recklessness, so she might do something like that in a way that has consequences. I read a fic where Amy did cure Mark's depression once, and it led to Mark and Carol divorcing and Mark becoming a basically absentee dad, his personality quite different. Even if Vicky did it 'all right', there could be downsides and unexpected outcomes. And Vicky isn't stupid, so she'd understand fully how complicated the brain is, how much could go wrong.
If Bonesaw tries to recruit Vicky, I mean, anyone can break, anyone can snap, anyone can go bad, but Bonesaw would need a very different strategy to do it than what she tried with Amy.
Vicky... I could see her having a name like Panacea, but she might not go with that. I'm not sure if Amy actually picked Panacea, or if Carol or Sarah or someone else in the New Wave adults did.
Amy with Vicky's power has all her Carol and villain dad and incest crush related problems, but at the very least, doesn't have any fear she can lose control and change Vicky... unless of course she fears that her Aura can do something (though officially, the Aura can't, so... let's say it can't and Amy knows this... but I can see Amy worrying about it anyway. Girl is an anxious mess)
She'd probably be more likely - until or unless something made her snap, anyway - to not end up crippling people the way Vicky did, her fear of herself and her powers making her hold back. She'd probably set strict rules to hold herself back, and god knows Carol would probably give her all sorts of lectures about responsible use of her powers.
Amy would not revel in her power the way Vicky does. She'd probably hate having the aura... though that also raises questions of like, how much of Vicky's personality is shaped by her power. But let's assume the core of her personality remains the same. She'd probably try harder than Vicky to restrain her aura because she wouldn't want to be center of attention. She would probably not earn a 'collateral damage' nickname, though when you have that sort of power mistakes happen no matter what.
Amy... would she put herself at risk of burnout going out and fighting criminals all the time? It's not the same 'people are dying if I'm not doing heroing all the time' that she had with healing powers, so she may not feel the same guilt if she isn't out all the time, but she would still feel scrupulosity and Carol's black and white view of the world and her own self-loathing over her knowledge of her father being a villain and her fear that Carol's apparent negative feelings towards her are well founded...
She might feel like she has to go out every night, has to do more, has to push harder, has to catch more criminals. And that still leaves her at risk of burnout. On the other hand, she might not be able to get away with that quite as easily, just from a practical standpoint.
So if she's not able to push herself that much, she might have the opportunity for a social life... but she still may not take it, because she'd still hate herself and her feelings for Vicky. But she might.
Amy definitely wouldn't have a name like Glory Girl, but I can't really imagine what it would be instead.
Of course, the Bank doesn't happen in this AU at all, in anything resembling the way it did in canon. Vicky's still likely to be the more outgoing of the two, so she's likely to be trying to arrange double dates (But do she and Dean still get together? Let's assume so, for the sake of argument). So it is possible that Amy could be in the bank getting money for the double date, but if the robbery attempt happens, Amy's strategy for stopping it is going to be a lot more direct, before Skitter gets a chance to put all her spiders on all the hostages.
If her shield works the same as Vicky's, then Tattletale still maybe figures out the way it works and the one-two of a shot and then the bugs biting her happens, but with Vicky not physically present during the robbery, Tattletale wouldn't necessarily be in a position to find out about Amy's crush. She would still be able to threaten Amy with knowledge of who her dad is, which might still be a way to stall her and mess her up, but not quite as badly.
I'm not sure what specifically might make Amy snap, and no matter what she's not going to be able to snap in the way she did in canon (i.e. messing with Vicky's brain and stuff, and then the Wretch).
My best guess would be that, after having managed to hold back her whole career, not killing or crippling anyone, because she's been more careful, and then something happens. She kills someone, cripples them - and maybe it's even, like with healing Mark's brain (and killing that one regenerating hybrid Bonesaw sent after Amy paralyzed Rat Murderer), fully justifiable, the only real option... but that still might be enough to make Amy believe she can't be safe to be around, that she's too evil, etc.
One way to really dig the knife in is that Vicky finds her after Amy runs off (though Amy's ability to fly here does change the dynamic) and Amy if says 'don't touch me' and if Vicky hugs her regardless, maybe Amy shoves Vicky off too hard and like, breaks a bone or something? that would definitely mess Amy up. Vicky's response would not be great either, though she might have been able to pick up Amy's brain chemistry enough when she hugged her to realize how freaked out and panicked Amy is, so she might be slightly more understanding.
I mean, it's almost too easy to say, and it's not like scenarios where things end up just as bad or even worse than canon in a "Glory Girl!Amy and Panacea!VIcky" AU don't exist, but it is also very easy to imagine things working out better for both sisters.
Of course, the tragedy of what happens to them in canon is that it was so avoidable right up until the moment it wasn't, so this isn't that much more special.
Still, Amy does seem like she has less chance of snapping in this scenario, and certainly wouldn't snap in the same way, or with the same consequences. And as for Vicky... I mean, with Shaper being Shaper, god knows what happens. Vicky being less prone to being afraid of herself and her power, maybe she actually does experiment with it from time to time, in some sort of controlled manner, she is possibly willing to do brains, at least for healing concussions and brain cancer, etc then it's possible Shaper is actually less of a dick to her.

Brain wave based on an old muggle au idea I had but
James and Sirius being twitch streamers, usually doing dumb shit online together, having a media share night. Someone sends in a clip of a home chef YouTuber (Remus) in the middle of some kind of kitchen disaster and then managing to recover in a way that even he seems a little surprised about, and he kind of gets this goofy little grin and winks at the camera. James laughs but Sirius (who had been STARING) just straight up chokes on his drink.
Clip ends. Sirius is screaming "no wait wait go back! Who is that? Someone in chat tell me who that was!" And James is trying real hard not to laugh like "bro are you okay??"
"Do I look okay?!"
"You look unhinged."
"I am!"
And then something about him SCRAMBLING to find Remus' account and basically follow him on all his socials, right there on stream, all while waxing poetic about how "no you don't understand Prongs, he's perfect."
"Jesus, Pads, are you trying to have his babies or something?"
"DON'T KINK SHAME ME!"
Meanwhile, Remus is watching the stream like he does every week and is trying not to die because he's had the biggest sort-of-celeb crush on Sirius for like. Years. And this happened because one of his friends decided to send the clip in as a prank.
#remus lupin#sirius black#james potter#streamer au#hp#i just think it's neat okay#free to take#i may write it some day

I went on a holiday and came back with a few random ideas for people:
Minecraft ~~Unknown SMP - where a group of people get stranded after a sort of magical storm hitting their ship/plane and they end up on a shore of an unknown place and ended up losing their memories (if wanted can use origins since it was a magical storm). now its their goal to get to know this place and survive.
FF14 (since I like roleplaying as well :"D I have some "club" ideas for house owners)
gothic vampire club dancers: blood sacrafices customers: my lord – my lady
1800’ tea and coffee room - Saloon maids and butlers sir and madam
market café with different vendors – food – potions –minions where you can buy stuff while sitting down and enjoying coffee and people serve you your order
circus (with mages, minions(animal tamer), strong man etc)

Whoever conceived and animated this moment, I hope they're doing well and thriving. This is S-rank romance stuff here.
#the ship overall is C to A tier#but it's things like THIS that push it up toward the A#titan ae#titan a.e.#cale#akima#it just...#starts with them chilling together being comfortable in each other's space#that would be enough that's a point there#then she goes and HANDS HIM THE SANDWICH SHE'S EATING#sharing their food#that's another one#and she does it because his hands are busy so he can't feed himself#so that's a third point#and she does it WITHOUT LOOKING AT HIM which is a FOURTH point#and he bites into it without request or invitation so that's a FIFTH point#and then he TAKES THE WHOLE SANDWICH AND GULPS IT DOWN LIKE A LIZARD#which is a SIXTH point#and jumps it up to SEVEN because she pulls her fingers free and finally looks at him and yells at him#IT'S A SEVEN-POINT ROMANCE COMBO#do you know how utterly rare those are?#those are generally earned through KISS scenes where the hands move and the heads touch and maybe there's a spin#they achieved a seven-point romance combo by SHARING A SANDWICH#fixing machines and sharing lunch URRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHH

frankly, the people whose kneejerk reaction to bisan asking for a global strike form the 21st-28th is to say that it takes years to organize a general strike are really unhelpful! no one is saying otherwise, but palestine will be a smoking crater if we all wait for years to do anything - bisan is asking us to do something now. Like are we only supposed to do something if we can do it perfectly??? At some point it’s a valid critique about the work that goes into social movement, and at another point I feel like some people are just trying to absolve themselves from not putting any effort into observing a week of economic inaction.
like idk! I get it, okay! People have bills to pay that don’t magically go away for a strike, we don’t have nearly enough social infrastructure in place to support people to fully stop going to work for a week. But fuck, dude! Stop immediately responding in such a defeatist way! Cut out unnecessary purchases! Try to shop local! Put more effort into promoting Palestinian voices online! Attend a protest, call a local rep, do something!
#like am I going insane#why did I see a post with thousands of notes on it talking about how it doesn’t make sense to be asking for this sort of action#it doesn’t make SENSE?#like god! I hope you’re taking other more sensible courses of action then!#fucks sake man#bisan is living through a waking nightmare and some of you are so pedantic and miserly#palestine#free Palestine

The cult of...Danny Fenton?
So! Way back when Danny first moved into his new neighborhood in Gotham, he had some trouble controlling his Powers. The different Types and Levels of Ectoplasm in the air when compared to Amity had thrown off his control.
He was used to being in places where his Ectoplasm meshed well with the Atmosphere, like a Water Balloon in a Pool, but in Gotham that analogy would be closer to a Water Balloon in the sewers. It was too different from what he was used to to fully control his Powers.
So it's understandable that he messed up a few times and his neighbors found out about his Abilities.
They took it well at first, Danny wasn't going to go Rogues or anything, and he never used them maliciously, but eventually they got curious.
They asked what his limits were, how he got them in the first place, and what the hell the Ghost Zone was. The answers "None Really", "I died and was reborn", and "A Collective of every Afterlife at once" did spark some interesting reactions from them.
Most importantly, a few of them joked about him being an Eldritch God that they needed to worship. He was good enough friends with them that at that point they felt comfortable pranking eachother, so they did just that.
Danny woke up one day on his birthday, and saw all of his friends and neighbors surrounding the makeshift Throne they had made and put him on while he was asleep. The entire day they chanted stuff like "The Great One requires Ms. Smiths Apple Pie for his day of birth!" And "The Great One Wishes for us to sing the Ritual Song! Happy Birthday to You! Happy Birth-"
After his birthday, they kept up the joke.
It didn't help that his powers had evolved Again! And now he could bestow abilities onto his friends. The jokes they made about their God granting them Supernatural Powers to rule the world with were insufferable.
Then, one day while he was just resting at home, watching a movie on his TV, he felt a Pull at his Core. The same kind of Pull whenever he was being summoned. But why would they summon hi- Oh Shit! It's Mr Jenkins Party today! He was supposed to meet them at the Warehouse they used for special events an Hour Ago!
He quickly accepted the Summoning, but was met with a suprising sight. His Neighbors all tied up in a pile to his right, a spilled table of party food to his left, and right in front of him, Batman and his Family watching him with wary eyes.
Slowly, he opened his mouth. "...so, did you come for the party or..."
#Dpxdc#Dp x dc#Dcxdp#Dc x dp#Danny Phantom#Dc#Dcu#Danny is Worshipped by a Cult#It started out as a Joke from his friends#Then he started giving them powers and they decided to take it to the next level#They told their work friends that they were in a cult now#They showed off the minor powers Danny gave them#And slowly they inducted more people into the Danny Fenton Cult (most of them knew it was a joke on a friend)(some were serious)#They were planning on using the Party to introduce Danny to all his new “Followers” and get a laugh out of it#Unfortunately the Bats hears about a new Cult forming and went to go stop it#The Cult succeeded in Summoning their God#And he's just a Guy.#Not Phantom. He's in his Human Form and looked like the most average guys you've ever seen.#The Bats eventually leave with an order to them to never Form a Cult again#The Cult feels that Batman is oppressing their right to Free Religion and begin to make the Cult even BIGGER out of Spite#Danny might need to step in soon...#...but Batman did beat up his friends...and he did technically try to revoke their right to free assembly and religion...#...Maybe he should just let this play out...

something i’ve been thinking about lately is like. growing up muslim right after 9/11 is something i’d never really reflected on much because it was all i’d ever known — at 5, my friend’s mum didn’t let her invite me to her birthday party because i was the only brown girl in our class, at 12, my classmates would joke about my family being part of isis, at 16, my dad was interrogated by american airport security for hours — and it always stung and it always hurt but it was just the way things were because the western world hated muslims. but i don’t think i’ve ever fully comprehended the extent to which we were hated until now.
palestine is being turned into a mass graveyard. every single day there are new photos of the atrocities being carried out against them and videos of them pleading for help and still those who can actually intervene turn a blind eye. israel is claiming to only be targeting hamas “terrorists” while bombing a refugee camp. israeli police raided and assaulted a non-zionist jewish neighbourhood. israeli soldiers are posting tiktoks of them torturing captured palestinians. this is not a complicated issue and it never has been. ethnic cleansing is being committed right in front of us. and yet the western world leaders refuse to call for a ceasefire.
and while zionist organisations accuse pro-palestine demonstrations of anti-semitism, while zionist celebrities insist that they’re afraid to leave their mansions in los angeles, a six year old muslim boy was stabbed to death and his mother wounded in the same attack in chicago. a muslim doctor was murdered while sitting outside her apartment complex in texas. hundreds of peaceful protesters have been arrested (many of whom have been jewish). despite what zionists want you to believe, this is not a jewish/muslim conflict. i have so much love and gratitude to my brave jewish brothers and sisters all over the world who are condemning israel for their actions.
ultimately, israel have been granted impunity by the west. they have slaughtered thousands upon thousands of innocent palestinians. they have bombed hospitals and schools indiscriminately. they have used white phosphorus, violating the geneva convention. they have completely eradicated nearly 900 bloodlines. how many more need to be wiped out? how many more children need to be buried underneath the rubble? how many more doctors need to be confronted with the bodies of their own family members? how many more journalists need to detail the horrific acts of violence they are witnessing? what more can be done to the palestinian people that has not been done already?
i truly believe that palestine will be free one day. i believe the palestinian people will receive the justice they finally deserve. but what breaks my heart is how much they have suffered and will continue to suffer before they are deemed worthy of help. and it would be to all of our detriment if we ignored how much of a factor palestine being a predominantly muslim state has played into the way the world has reacted to their genocide.
#edit: this is completely okay (and encouraged frankly) to reblog <3#i just needed to get this off my chest because i don’t know how much more i can take#palestine#free palestine

reminding myself there are no truly "bad days", because every single day, someone somewhere in the world has taken a photo of an extremely tiny animal and shown it to someone else, and that's very good actually
#buny text#bless the people who take photos of incredibly small baby bunnies and post them on line. they are what keeps me going#when i was running the bunnieswithVGM twitter it was like. genuinely a healing experience getting to look at rabbit photos regularly#i highly recommend looking at pics of very small rabbits and thinking to yourself 'you tiny fucking thing. how do you exist'#it's very important and also fun. and then you can share those images with a friend#the tiny fucking animals on the internet are free and you can take them with you
