#like DANG kid-

[biggest-gaudiest-patronuses]

christ sometimes I just wanna. steal a time machine & go back & sit down next to my 9-year-old self and just like. let them pull out their pokemon card binder & gush about their holographic gyarados or whatever. I'd just smile & ask questions about motherfukcing bulbasaur & tell my kid self that I thought they were a neat person, & someday they'd find other people who thought so too.

like i'm a grown adult who honestly finds most kids stuff boring, but. damn if i could go back & hang out with my baby self & listen to them ramble...just so they knew someone was listening. i would in a heartbeat. thinking about u kid

New idea spawned.

Another, as if this brain rot hasn't fully taken over me for like the last year and a half, DPxDC.

Anyways.

Ghost King!Danny and/or VERY powerful Danny and/or Ancient of Space.

And deaged Dan and Danielle(Ellie) (plus Dad!Danny)

And a cult summoning!

So this really alarming and powerful cult is trying to summon a powerful ghost (aka Danny) to come give them power or destory or ensalve the world etc etc. Only thing is, they got the summoning wrong and instead get baby Ellie and toddler Dan.

Also they're in their human forms right now too.

No one is happy.

The cultists are upset and wondering what they did wrong, the JL and/or JLD are upset children, babies, are on the battlefield, and Dan isn't happy cause he was in the middle of coloring a spaceship in his coloring book and the people in the robes are getting louder and louder and going to wake up Ellie from her nap and Daddy just got her to sleep and-

Yep. Someone is yelling at them now and Ellie is awake from it.

And...

She starts crying from being woken up.

Not even a few seconds later, the sounds of this plane of reality being ripped opened is heard and the sudden frosty chill of ice is felt.

Along with an angry dad voice of.

"Who woke my daughter up from her nap?! I just got her to sleep!!"

Prompt:

Damian isn’t happy about father’s rule not to hurt the gaggle of false kids he has acquired. How is he supposed to prove to him that he is the only one worthy of the title of heir now?

But fine. Most of them are stupid enough they’ll end up dead sooner or later. Damian just has to play the long game. Establish himself as the only constant.

But then father’s wayward son, Todd, comes home… and it’s so much worse than Damian expected.

He remembers this man. Remembers him from hushed whispers in the League, from mother’s creased eyebrow, and training halls drenched with blood.

And he’ll take one look at Damian and know. Know that he’s a threat to his position.

And the worst thing: Damian isn’t allowed to defend himself.

Already trying to figure out how to draw the NPCs— starting with a handful of the children I expect we’re going to be seeing again. I’m excited to see how much my designs for them change as we go along!

Rivers Cuomo blog post [10/17/2005]:

The girl I was madly in love with when I was ten was at the show the other night. It’s weird for us to be talking again in our mid-thirties. The strands of continuity in my life surprise me. The same pain and pleasure of crushes have been with me my whole life, transferred from person to person and situation to situation.

I felt it again at Harvard last year. The same unutterable anguish at not being able to have the dark-haired beauty that I wanted. The same feeling in the pit of my stomach as she smiled and said sweetly, “I just like you as a friend.”

Have I grown up at all from age ten to age thirty-five, from the first early crushes to the latest one?

I think this last time, maybe, I had a breakthrough. I faced my craving in all its terribleness. I didn’t block it out of my mind. I just felt the pain, day after day, for months on end until slowly it passed away. I think the next time I have a crush, if there is a next time, it won’t be so bad.

I can finally say good-bye to the girl I loved when I was ten. I can finally move towards something less about pleasure and pain.

Huh, how would DK react to teen Mario? He would be overprotective of him?

DK isn't gonna cry, what're you talking about?

Nope, definitely not gonna cry.

Yes I know that growing older and gaining independence is inevitable and a good thing and we lucked into one of the best school zones in the area and she'll have friends and so on and so on

but have you considered

that's my child and I'm going to miss her! That's my little buddy! She'll be gone all day! What do you mean that's 8 hours that I don't get to see her growing and learning and being a little person and I only get a few hours at the beginning and end?

No joke, school system is busted, that's the equivalent of a full-time job and she'll barely be FIVE. Who thought this was okay?

I'm gonna miss my little bean :( :( :(d

HERMIT A DAY MAY - DAY 25

impulseSV x Samurai Jack

For Impulse I chose Samurai Jack!

Samurai Jack takes place in a post-apocalyptic cyberpunk future, so I thought this would suit Impulse well given his build theme and skin this season.

To learn more about Samurai Jack and see my style references, look below the cut!

Samurai Jack is a 90s cartoon created by Genndy Tartakovsky. The story follows a samurai prince from a fictional version of Japan who battles a shapeshifting entity of evil named Aku. Right as Aku is about to lose to the samurai, he tears a hole in time and throws the samurai into the future.

Once in the future, the samurai, given the nickname Jack by locals, must find a way to travel back to his own time to defeat the immortal Aku and prevent the future from being shaped under Aku's malicious control.

Samurai Jack is a fantastic, imaginative cartoon that deserves to be called art. Not only are the character designs fantastic, many of the episode concepts themselves are interesting and thought-provoking in a way not achieved by many other shows.

The show originally ran for four seasons and was not concluded. Twelve years later, an fifth season aired that completed the story. The first four seasons are suitable for all ages, but the fifth season is significantly more mature. I highly recommend watching the entire series, including the fifth season, which is a fantastic conclusion to the story.

Characters in Samurai Jack are colorful and have strong shape language

rewatching a DBH play through for the first time in years and god damn I thought we cooked up the HankCon energy the way people did for like,,, BBC Lestrade x Mycroft. But no, that shit was already in there. I’m continuously shocked by how bold it is. Was this made by animators with age gap twink x bear kink or something lmao?

The more I write on my good Morzan AU, the more I research. And the more I research, the more I realize, Oromis is kinda a jerk and shouldn’t have been teaching literal children.
