the dynamic of demigods thinking which other demigod is the most powerful is always amusing to me because. like, we know the big 3 kids are all the most powerful. That's just a fact of their universe. And then we know nearly every character views Percy as the strongest demigod, and most people are very rightfully intimidated by him.
and you look at the powers of the Big 3 kids and there's Percy, but then you realize Nico is just kind of objectively more powerful than him but simply chooses to hang out in Percy's shadow like he's Percy's scary dog privileges. Like, the two of them are pretty equally capable of causing multiple different apocalypses. Nico just also has like four different instakill powers and it's not like he doesn't use them. He very much uses them! Not infrequently, even! And they don't seem to take a significant amount of energy from him! And other demigods are pretty intimidated by both of them! But Nico makes a conscious point to keep his cards close to his chest and not let on exactly how dangerous and scary he can be if he wants to. People are already scared enough of him without knowing anything about him and he doesn't like that. Percy doesn't think about that nearly as much, and so usually just goes in guns blazing and that's part of why he's considered a wildcard. And then Nico himself puts Percy on a pedestal, so those who do know more about Nico's abilities then presume Nico knows something they don't about Percy that implies Percy is even stronger than him.
And even on a meta level Nico's narrative role requires him to be functionally more powerful than Percy, because he very often serves the purpose of getting Percy out of situations he can't handle on his own. That's just part of his function as a character! But also narratively he can't overshadow Percy so he just takes a backseat of his own accord and that's very amusing to me.
#pjo#percy jackson#riordanverse#nico di angelo#i will also note it is implied though we never see that Hazel has the exact same powers as Nico#and Hazel has trained with her powers way longer than Nico has plus is older so theoretically is more powerful already#she killed a giant all by herself. sank a small island. and successfully subdued Gaea for like another 60 years#so given that + her also having Nico's powers then *Hazel* is theoretically the strongest demigod no contest#Jason and Thalia end up kind of nerfed by the plot in that neither is allowed to overshadow Percy either#but they dont play the same roles that characters like Nico do - Nico keeps getting stupid abilities just for convenience factor#and Bianca never got the opportunity to use many powers besides astral projection/dream manipulation and similarly hades kid illusion stuff#and general ghost stuff. and she does all that as a ghost really. her killing the skeleton wasnt even her powers that was just a normal sta#and it was just by virtue of her being a hades kid and fulfilling the ''can kill these skeletons'' requirement that it blew up#technically she also showcases underworld immunity with the lethe stuff wearing off but that's very subtle#Hazel also doesnt play the same role as Nico and so doesnt get to showcase all that#plus is similarly nerfed with the ''cant be cooler than Percy'' constraint and so never gets to really do anything#even though logistically she is the most powerful and should showcase the full extent of her abilities to the same degree as Percy and Nico#Jason at least gets a little bit more wiggle room than Thalia being a main protagonist#Nico just gets the most wiggle room out of both not being a protagonist and being functionally a dues ex machina most of the time#versus Thalia or Bianca who are only ever secondary or supporting characters

Bruce: now, for the last part of this meeting
Dick, Jason, Tim, Stephanie, Damian, Cass, and Duke: ?
Bruce: -turns around to bring up a power point presentation, the title card of which just reads 'Please Be Normal About Tim'-
Bruce: -turns back around-
Bruce: ...Tim why are you the only one still here
Tim: I just like power point presentations
#Jason keeps beating up Tim and then chasing him around trying to get him to join him#including AFTER Tim kicked him directly in the balls#he had a whole murder board about Tim when he was stalking him#Damian also keeps trying to beat up/kill Tim and prove he is the 'superior Robin'#Dick is generally pretty chill but he and Tim have a history of getting into shenanigans together#also Dick has a tendency to go a bit feral when Tim is involved and hurt#Stephanie once said Tim had a 'bad case of the Stephs' and while I love that for her absolutely not#Cass neither wants to kill Tim nor be romantically entangled with him#which is good!#but like Dick she also goes along with his plans without as many follow up questions as she should probably have#and by 'as many' I mean 'any'#she pretended to stab him through the chest to throw off a bunch of assassins#and I'm pretty sure she didn't question a single second of it#Tim just turned to her like 'I have a fake sword and I need you to pretend to kill me with it'#Cass just gave a thumbs up with no follow-up questions#Duke#my beloved#I know he and Tim don't interact much in canon#but in my heart I feel he would not be normal about Tim either#like regular ass Tim Drake figuring out Batman's secret identity and deciding to just become Robin because Gotham and Batman need it?#attaching rockets to a skateboard to get around?#coming up with insane and convoluted plans and consistencies that don't make sense to anyone else?#plans and contingencies that WORK?#Duke would see Tim as aspirational and go along with whatever insane bullshit nonsense he comes up with just to see what happens#he would 100% be down for whatever Tim has planned and would absolutely feed into it#he just wants to crank that little chaos gremlin up to eleven and watch him go#Bruce is desperate to keep them from interacting in any capacity for longer than thirty seconds at a time because HE KNOWS#HE KNOWS what will happen if they ever team up#it's why he put them on separate shifts#for the record Bruce ALSO had to sit through this presentation

another Vital AU hunter-and-camila thought from this morning was a thought of, like. camila very very very gently and carefully explaining that she'd like luz to get a basic physical done by a doctor in the human realm, because luz has not been seen by a human doctor since she was four and is overdue for ten million vaccines and desperately needs bloodwork to check her vitamin and thyroid levels, etc, etc, etc, and hunter is like. visibly freaked out and upset by this. bc he is SO afraid of strangers hurting luz.
anyway. that's all pretty much expected, on account of The Horrors.
what got me in my feelings was the thought of camila telling hunter that she has a lot of the same worries, and that she Knows not all human healers have good intentions, and that she Promises she'll take that into account when finding one for luz. because she does not want luz to get hurt.
hunter, naturally, is like "how.... do you know that....?" and camila is like ay dios mio. HOW do i explain medical racism or the united states..... to a boy.... with no concept of racism or the united states.....
#not that i think she has perfect tumblr-style praxis vocab for it anyway. however#it would be disingenuous for me to pretend that being an afro-latina woman in a 2010s/2020s political climate does not impact her#characterization here. camila has a lot of Big Parent Fears that are Extremely Reasonable.#hunter doesn't know the history of course but it makes camila's caution about luz line up spectacularly with his own. so that's something#ultimately i think she'd just tell him that she's known people who were affected by bad human healers#and that human healing isn't any more perfect or morally pure than the healing coven.#given that explaining the minutiae is. A Much Longer Story.#i've been thinking about camila a lot lately. both in this AU and in the canon i just...#i LOVE when there's One Character who's grounded in Being Fucking Normal. it's Wonderful#the straight man of fantasy bits. camila is worrying about her daughter's college tuition and her mortgage while battling magical bullshit#she's Perfect.#toh#princess luz au#camila noceda#hunter toh#horrible mindscape trauma pals#racism#medical abuse#medical malpractice

people seemed to like the last design so here's another drawing. this time featuring a surprise guest. haha wow whos that guy...
no dialogue ver
#clemart#ttcc#toontown corporate clash#<- i removed the tooniness from their designs sorry guys#hardly counts again but i'll include the tags for the sake of documentation#prethinker#brian ttcc#mac opsys#ill get back to my normal toontown art soon enough#i just have to get a bit indulgent. just let me have this moment#ive kind of taken a liking to this . its fun. i might do more with this design later idk#his height is inconsistent in the 2 times i've drawn him full body#technically speaking i think if he stood on all of his legs (secondary arms included) he'd be shorter than his normal/cog design#but in terms of length i want to say hed be very tall like maybe half vp height just for fun. <- not a solid confirmation#or at least taller than the tallest manager.#^he also wouldnt be able to actually reach this height because if too many of his legs are off the floor he just falls over#however i think to adequately display that ive have to make him much longer. which as you can see here is NOT what i did#to make up for this imagine he can just remove and add some at will. ok. its not inconsistent its...on purpose. yes. on purpose.#we'll go with that#YAP SESSION.#BOOO BOOOO GGET THIS GUY OFF THE STAGE

How would modern Philip look like with long hair?
Like the sweet boy he used to be (:
#toh au#the owl house#luz noceda#philip wittebane#emperor belos#modern au#teen Philip#Luz grew out her hair a little too!#because he was embarrassed that he has longer hair than her#also notice she did his eyebrows lol#they’re so sweet together y’all 😭#though I imagine Philip is a bit of a toxic friend specially after their first meeting in years#he wanted to be normal and the only person interested in him is the school’s weirdo#he would push her away and throw her under the bus at every chance he got to look better in front of his peers#of course he apologizes and amends their relationship but it made Luz pretty distrustful#anyway ughhh I gotta find time to update my fic#it didn’t even get that much engagement but it was fun to write#anyway thanks for the asks! these were really fun (:#everywhen and then

Took me a while to figure out what I wanted to see you draw, but I think I got it now:
Would you be able to draw a character of your choice being "bear"-hugged by a Hildebear (haha see what I did there)? I feel like it might be excellent for comedy purposes, and I know how much you adore them :P
Thank you in advance :3
See, now you're starting to see why they're so cool, their arms were made for bear hugs :3 (surely your character would be inclined to agree, right? /s)
(but also, it would be a crime to miss an opportunity to draw Ralsei)
Thank you for the request! I feel closer to the Hildebears already :D
#i'm sure your FOmar would adore these cuddly friends /s#this weekend i learned traumatizing others' ocs is fun#i did not mean to spend as long as i did on the first one but i was having fun#pso is a bit anime-y (esp the concept art) so i've been trying to match that#i kinda(?) borrow elements of anime/manga in my non-realistic art but i almost never draw it directly so this was new#that's why this one took so long; i spent a lot of time experimenting with the tones/hatching/effects#i still shaded it like i do any other drawing though so it's kind of my normal work with a little bit extra plopped on top#idk how well it worked but i tried haha#the second took me like ten minutes lmao#that's all of them so far so i'll leave the requests open a little longer than last time :D#will be closing them thursday night though!#requests#ralsei#deltarune#FOmar#hildebear#phantasy star online

Understandably So no one mentions charles when talking about the Logan movie and again Understandably So This Aint Bout Him however i do confess that as someone who had never seen Logan until like. a month ago when i was binging all the movies and without knowing a single thing about it aside from laura i cant lie i was in fact jumpscared by him being there. especially for at least like 3/4s of the movie
#xmen#logan movie#snap chats#i be ramblin today hello ...#it was a pleasant jumpscare. yk until he died. after realizing he committed atrocities by accident 😭😭💀 OLD MAN NOOO#but no please LIKE I READ THE DESCRIPTION WHEN GOING TO WATCH RIGHT#AND I WAS JUST THINKING 'oh he'll probably be here for like twenty minutes. wdym he's here for way longer than that'#i THINK years ago i REMEMBER seeing a screenshot of the hotel bit with laura and charles but again that was years ago#and i might be tricking myself maybe its a false memory jealvvelka either way i just know they were cute :(#point is he was here for. i cant even say So Little cause again He Was Here For An Hour And Thirty Minutes Out Of Two Hours#and lets be clear 'snap has your brain molded that much you know exactly how much screen time charles gets in the movies'#girl no not yet i only know exactly when he punches his clock cause i had to keep restarting the movie cause it kept pausing vjAELKAJE#and it just so happened to struggle literally like. ten minutes after he dies- like when logan was dealing with x24 THAT part#so rude for that.. anyway I Repeat i miss charles and laura bein cute :(#it wasnt a lot but it was just sweet.. i always like how charles always got that Professor in his soul with these movies#like in dofp when logan's losing it after. getting future ptsd jvALKVLAJ??K charles is there to ground him#despite being. Like That vjeaLKj like sir please ily. i will accept the Youre On Acid answer youre trying your best#and then with THIS movie evidently charles is having. the worst time upstairs#but he's still super sweet with laura like oh stop you grandpa im gonna throw up#and to STRESS. they were EVIL about that wholesome dinner bit like :((( oh to see the fam happy and safe again :(((#like im throwing up frankly. people were right this movie IS sad i underestimated their assessment 😭#to lighten the mood in my heart. charles really do be an old man in this movie hes such a menace to logan JELKAK#god. Most Normal X-Men Movie Watcher Focuses On Professor X During The Movie About Logan VEJLKJA#ok im done. sorry i just keep replayin that bit in my head where theyre in the car and logans just 'Did You Take Your Meds SHOW'#like pelase. jaeRLKEaj ok im gonna try drawing i looked at my wall long enough and i think i can draw something

one of the weird things about life expectancies in warrior cats stretching out as the series goes on is that lionblaze is 8 years old with adult grandchildren and showing no signs of age or even retiring, while yellowfang was depicted as old af when she died at the age of 8.
#warrior cats#yellowfang#lionblaze#in fairness i imagine being invincible for years when he was younger and unable to obtain serious injuries or illness#probably gave him a lifespan boost. but everyone else around him is living forever; thornclaw is fine even though his siblings retired#and they're all old enough to attend secondary school. cats like squirrelflight and whitewing don't seem to have stiffer limbs or grey fur.#i don't think they should have the same lifespan as a typical unmanaged feral colony (only 2 years!) but i think first arc cats#should really have all died of old age a while ago. second arc cats should be retired and starting to pass from old age. and cats from the#third and fourth arcs beginning to feel their age and the older ones retiring.#so a lifespan of about 8-10 years i think? with the odd outlier like mistystar. leaders should probably live another year or two anyhow#because of their extra lives. although normal age related complications would likely start to eat into them once they live for long enough.#(i mean. squirrelstar just go her nine lives. she's probably going to live longer than a cat like tallstar who got them at a younger age#even if she lands up with kidney failure or cancer they haven't been whittled away when she was young via other stuff. i think her living#long enough to take the junior cert is reasonable)#also i think medicine cats would live a bit longer because they don't have to hunt and fight all the time. although older med cats would be#more vulnerable to being killed by a disease outbreak. i think their apprentice would have to take on tasks like herb gathering and treatin#contagious illnesses.

If you were to look at Batman’s DNA, one would find that it’s 99.9% human. It’s not something he ever mentions or speaks of, and is one of the few things to slip his mind when talking with his allies.
But that’s not unusual in Gotham. The city is possessive of hers after all, and while some can try to leave, a part of her will always stay within them.
#prompts#dc#batman#batfam#all gothamites are just slightly Off#they don't notice because it's the norm for them#Besides those generations of lead and poisons and lazarus pits and whatever else is going on with the curses has to have an effect on people#dc prompt#Joker can smile just a hint too wide for a normal human#Batman stays so still in the shadows it's like he's melded with them#like he's forgotten to *breathe*#Dick can bend just a hint too far#stay up in the air just a bit longer than one should#Gothamites can literally tell when someone else is a gothamite even if they don't look or sound like it#It's just this *feeling* in their bones#How come so many gothamites are hardier?#Because Gotham decided they're her kids now#no takes backsies#If this is#dc x dp crossover#then all of Gotham is liminal#or at least the gothamites who've been there for a generation or 3

Okay I was just thinking of how funny the concept of a modern-day Dracula is.
Like this guy would wake up from a two thousand long slumber and be like, "Renfield, fetch me some human blood this instant to quench my thirst" And he'd be all happy and excited cause he just took a dope ass nap and now he's starting his day with some tasty human blood, cause all vampires know about how tasty human blood is, it's the best kind and that couldn't have possibly changed in the last two thousand years! Right? Oh don't be silly, of course not.
So then Renfield would fetch him his nice fresh glass of human blood and Dracula would snatch it right up and start eagerly drinking. But then he pauses, slowly lowers the glass and turns to Renfield, asking "Um, Renfield ol' friend, what is in this?" and then Renfield's like, "Oh that would be microplastic sir" And Dracula, a being so old he watched the rise and fall of most ancient civilisations and had enough time to read the entire library of Alexandria before it was destroyed in the time we humans wast in the blink of an eye, has to sit there in his coffin and try to not look stupid as he asks, "um, micro-what?"
#dracula#renfield#vampires#vampire#count dracula#human evolution#microplastics#that shit be insane#Dracula is just confused as fuck#hes like “yeah im just gonna go back to sleep. wake me when humans are normal again”#and renfields like “yeeeah thats gonna be a bit longer than two thousand years this time”#renfield is also just sick of humans#i think im funny#funny post#funny shit#random thoughts#text post

me when the guy I’m very delusional-y head over heels for. Me when he’s so fucking pretty to me for some reason. Me when he has like zero swag besides band shirts but that’s okay. Me when he remembers something I liked last year and haven’t brought up much this year. Me when he just generally knows the stuff I like. Me when he’s swings both ways (my chances went up maybe like a small bit !!) Me when. When.
#Guys this is like my one true shot at what I hope to be a normal relationship#And I��ve actually known the guy for longer than a couple of months!!!!#He’s so everything to me when I’m not filling my mind with fiction it’s just him#I feel like I care a bit too much when I’m around him like is it noticeable when my face is literally burning for whatever reason it may b#Sitting next to him in a normal room isn’t enough I need to go sit with him outside or some shit…not even talking just sitting#He’s one of the few people that just being in the presence of makes me feel so just. !!!! And it’s like times a million with him it’s justt#But I fear I am just a cringe pick me in reality /.hj#Destined to be good friends unfortunately#Well I mean fortunately I even get to be friends with him. But still you get my point#S.K goes off about love again#S.K thinks
