thanks for the tag!!! and i apologize for the length of my response, lol. i went through a lot of phases. a few of them stick out more than the rest though! throughout the course of my life, in no particular order: - veterinarian: my oldest career choice, before i knew how psychologically intense this career is. plus all of the technical knowledge and years of post-education. ultimately not for me in the slightest. (to be fair, all i knew as a kid was that i wanted my job to somehow relate to animals.) - farmer: sort-of achieved, on a backyard scale! i've been able to produce and sell animal products and intend to expand the scale of my backyard venture soon. :) - forensic scientist: i know more now than i probably should about how to get away with various crimes thanks to this interest and having taken some classes, lol. i went through a brief phase where i wanted to solve cold cases. now it's probably just useful if i ever wanted to write an accurate murder novel or something. - cyber security/IT: i know a few programming languages thanks to this interest. i even took on an intership at amazon for awhile...before i learned how insidious the industry is. as a disabled person, this career would have eaten me alive. - game developer: i made a few games! but they never saw the light of day lol. and they never will. - meteorologist: when i was in middle school i would document the daily local forecast on my paper journal, every single day. i wanted to chart changes in the weather over a long period of time. my school teacher crushed this goal though--told me there were other people already doing it and that i was wasting my time. :/ i think a lot about what i might have found if i had kept going, considering the recent intensifying symptoms of climate change. - storm chaser: similar to the above, i was just obsessed with weather patterns and the like. i still am, though having been through several minor weather scares now i have decided i definitely lack the courage to do anything with this career lol. the shows are cool though! - artist: i did achieve this to some degree, at least as a hobby. i've been drawing for the past 16 years. but i draw more for myself than for any sort of monetization or profit. - author: i've written fic over the years, but haven't published any original works. so it depends on how you look at it i guess. - field journalist: this is probably my biggest goal i ever had in my life, overall. all my life i have wanted to go out and explore the remaining wild areas of the earth, where humans can observe completely natural and wild behaviors from animals. i also want to hand-document the effects of climate change and engineer new solutions of dealing with it. and i want to shake the hand of sir david attenborough, my lifelong biggest hero. but given my disabilities, it's unlikely i'll ever be able to do any of this; so i content myself with taking photos, observing, and documenting the things i observe in my local environment for my own enjoyment.

currently i've succeeded in one thing i never originally thought i would do: content creation. while i'm no markiplier by any stretch of the imagination, i have made money from my work, so i do loosely count as a professional content creator. i think it would be cool to find some sort of way to intersect this with the aforementioned field journalism. maybe if i built up some sort of portfolio, i could work something out with national geographic...that would be a dream come true. tagging: @grimparadise @the-redrook @the-voidkin-playground @errorciphersystem @malign-intervention

if we lived in a world where u had to do the career u were first interested in as a child what would u be doing, id be a firefighter

Danny commits to the Bit a bit too hard...

So! For the first few weeks after his accident, whenever Danny would try to help the people of Amity Park, he would be treated as a Villain.

No matter if he had just defeated the Big Bad of the Week or saved a Cat from a tree, everybody in town only saw him as a Monster or Villain to he feared and hunted down. Danny was really getting sick of trying to get them on his side, until Sam made a suggestion.

"Why not just...play into it?" She said, barely looking up from painting her nails.

It was just an offhand suggestion, but it stuck with Danny. Why shouldn't he lean into it? The people of Amity Park already saw Ghosts as Evil, and they already assumed he was in cahoots with the Ghosts attacking the town. Why shouldn't he just...play into it?

So he does just that.

From that day on, whenever Phantom was spotted he would dramatically monologue about his Evil Plans, or claim that another Rogues attack on the City was his own act of terror.

Box Ghost destroys the towns Warehouses? It was on his orders.

Ember mind controls masses of Teenagers? All part of his Plans somehow.

Every Adult in Town is kidnapped by Young Blood? Danny gave them over to a friend as a Gift.

He crafts an identity for himself as the most Vile and Horrible Ghost that has ever attacked the City, using his own infamy to cement his legend even more firmly. The town only sees a Monsterous Villain, who has eveded capture near effortlessly for months on end, who constantly attacks their City and gets away with it.

Of course he still needs an excuse for how his plans keep getting stopped, and he gets it when his girlfriend Valerie becomes the Red Huntress. Before that, he just claimed infighting or the Fentons getting lucky, but Valerie becoming the Town's Hero meant he had a plausible excuse for how he kept getting "Foiled".

Val was suspicious, because she was not as involved as Phantom painted her to be, but in the end she had no proof of him faking his defeats. And she couldn't come up with any explanations for why he would do that in the first place. I mean, who would fake being a Supervillain? It had to he something else.

This did come back to bite him a while later, when the Justice League decided that enough was enough, and dispatched Justice League Dark to recruit Red Huntress and help Deal with him.

Coincidentally, that was the same day Pariah Dark attacked the Mortal Realm and sucked Amity Park into the Ghost Zone.

And honestly? Danny had spent over a Year proclaiming himself as a Villain who commanded Ghosts to attack the Human Realm, and he had heard about the Right of Conquest being Absolute in the Ghost Zone, so why not make it official? Why not overthrow the Ghost King, become the Ghost King, and cement his identity as a Villain while also forbidding Ghosts from entering the Human Realm without his permission?

He may have gotten a bit carried away and forgotten that the Villain thing was a disguise...but hey! He was still preventing Ghost Attacks! ...mostly. That's got to count for something right?

He may have let the Bit run a bit too far...

“take off your top.” the man on the couch across from you barks with a toothy grin, prying eyes focused on you as he puts a bottle of beer to his lips.

you know rafe doesn’t like playing games at his parties. it’s so below him, he’d rather sit back and relax, for once leaving the chaos up to everyone else. in the comfort of his own home he can truly let loose. now that tannyhill is technically his, he couldn’t care less if someone breaks one of the gauche vases rose picked out, or puts a hole in one of the walls — he’s too busy seizing the opportunity to drink, smoke, or snort whatever he pleases.

you like it when he’s chill, it gives you the opportunity to get exactly what you want out of him. you caught him at the perfect time — nursing a drink, swirling the brown liquid in his glass as he nodded along to something topper was saying. you seized the moment, attaching yourself to his side. “come on, rafey! please, it’ll be fun!” you bounced like a little bunny, slipping your hand in his to sweeten the deal. “please, please, please — i don’t wanna play by myself.”

“nah, babe. truth or dare? that’s some fuckin’ high school shit.”

“please, just this once?” you press your cheek against his arm, pushing your cherry-glossed lips into a pout.

that’s how you end up perched on his lap, your boyfriend tucked comfortably into the couch on his porch. you’re really regretting it all now, the feeling of everyones eyes on you makes your skin crawl. you wish you could just disappear, caught like a deer in headlights, sputtering as you peer around the room.

rafe breathes out a laugh, and the room quiets in anticipation. he adjusts his position to lean forward, his hand squeezing your thigh like a stress ball.

“what’d you say?”

“i think everyone heard me.” the boy gawks, still watching you.

“that’s funny.”

“i’m not joking. it’s the game, bro.”

your face feels red hot, matching the heat you feel radiating from rafe. you’re afraid to move, your eyes only shifting to your boyfriends face, who you’ve never seen so angry.

“nah, nah, you’re real funny, man.” he hooks his hand under one of your legs, the other arm around your back to lift you up off his lap, dropping you haphazardly on the couch cushion beside the two of you as he pushes himself out of the seat to confront the kid.

“rafe!”

he’s already got the boy by the collar by the time topper and kelce try to stop him, your hands fly over your mouth as you watch it all unfold before you. rafe shakes him, “you’re a comedian, huh? you think i’m about to let you disrespect not only me, but my girl, in my fuckin’ house?” he raises his voice, everyone else completely silent as he shoves the kid toward the door. “take that shit somewhere else, get the fuck out.”

rafe’s shoulders heave, watching the boy scamper away with his tail between his legs before he turns around, looking at you. “game’s over, let’s go.” he cocks his head, and you jump out of your seat to follow him, leaving the room stuck in a stunned silence.

I love how Twilight literally made the minimum effort to disguise Franky as a woman XD Realistically, it should be easier for him to disguise Franky, a 1'66cm tiny guy as a woman than to disguise himself, a 1'87cm muscular guy. I know he did it on purpose just to make fun of Franky.

Look at him, that's the face of someone who's laughing his head off inside

Even the first thing Twilight did when he met Franky was to laugh at him, i cant- HASDG

But now that I think about it, that was probably the first time Loid laughed in a long, long time. Damn this post was supposed to be funny-

my castle cook, 12th in a long line of cooks by family virtue, nervously: "And, my Lady, how is thy... meal?" me, isekai'd into the position of a medieval lady, staring at the soggy, mushy, clove-studded 14th attempt to get my cook to make an Outback Steakhouse™️ Bloomin' Onion™️: "it's fine. cloves are a little strong."
