Ultimate Enemy in DP in DC world
Okay so, I think we can all concede that logically in an au where danny phantom takes place within the dc universe, Ultimate Enemy's bad timeline would not happen. Like, Dan would not be able to take over the world, even with Vlad's ghost half helping him.
(though i do really like the takes of how that would happen, even if i don't ultimately agree with the end result. It's a fun story and a great opportunity for angst.)
But! I have an idea! I propose that the dark danny timeline would be in line with the evil teen titans timeline. The one with cloned Bart and Kon, champion of Ares Cassie, and, of course, batman with a gun Tim.
No, not just because I recently finished reading the 2003 run of teen titans.
(actually that's the major reason, yeah. it was a pretty good comic and i think it'd be cool if other people read it too)
But because I think it'd be interesting if it was a East titans vs west titans vs some ghost taking over the midwest and a majority of canada.
(does dc have any canadian heroes? I bet they do, but I've just never heard of any...)
And!! As a bonus!! Danny in the future would've probably gotten into a tussle or smth with the titans, which might lead to an uneasiness working with the present version of them. If he recognizes them. Like, Kon and Cassie I could see him knowing, Bart was on the good side iirc, but Tim?? No, no, he had a mask! A very distinct mask.
Anyway, what I'm trying to get at is that Danny totally thinks Batman snaps one day.

Shipping everything is both a blessing and a curse cause on one hand there's plenty of fanfics and art about vigcup or dagcup or the ot6 but then when my brain decides to scream RYKER X DAGUR or VIGGO X DAGUR at 11:00pm on a Sunday there's only one good fic for me to read and I'm left wanting to claw my hair out

Hello! I've just been wondering if there's a way that you designed your characters visually, I feel like they're so vibrant and so different from they way they're typically depicted in Greek myths. Did you draw inspiration from anything, or did they sort of just come together along the way of writing? I do love how they 'look' (despite this being a text game hehe) and thank you for such a fun IF! Looking forward to the release tomorrow :)
Well, I don't know that I have any specific process I can point to, heh. It started with looking at deities associated with the Underworld in Greek myths and thinking about which ones had stories or motifs or other things that I thought would make for interesting inclusion in a game like this.
When it came to designing them visually, I tried to take inspiration from those same elements, but certainly not feel constrained by what we have of Classical art. Not that there's anything wrong with Classical art, of course, but this isn't really at its core a Classical story anymore. It has some elements and some themes, but not at all in the same way, and I felt it was probably fine if the characters reflected that.
I also wanted them to reflect the diversity of 'the Mediterranean region,' if you like. There's a very whitewashed way of looking at the ancient world in this region, and I wasn't particularly keen to play into the stereotype, so the majority of the main characters are people of colour. I don't necessarily have specific identities in mind for most of them, as they're also gods, and in this case, that detaches them a bit from those sorts of concepts. (A god isn't Etruscan or Cretean or Ethiopian or what have you—they're a god.) But it was still important to me that, detached from very human ideas of identity, the gods still be a diverse-looking lot, because why wouldn't they be?
As it turns out, that left me with loads of possibilities, and so it was a matter of making each character visually distinct from the others, in a way that made sense for who they are. Alekto is a Fury, someone whose job it is to hunt down people who try to evade the justice of the gods. So she's tall, and strong, and often dressed for combat. But she also has a particular relationship with her gender, which she's given a lot of consideration, and when she's not doing that, she likes to present herself in a very feminine way, so she keeps her hair long and has an entire wardrobe full of colorful, elaborate garments and accessories.
Pyri was always going to be shades of orange and red and gold and the like, because they're a fire deity. Hades in some important sense is his realm, and so he's taken on some of its features, just as it has taken on some of his. I admit I gave wings to Hermes because I just wanted to haha, so it's not always that deep, either.
Also, I can't take full credit for how well they turned out; all the artists who've been kind enough to bring them to life have contributed to that sense of distinctness as well. I'm sure that without those contributions, they wouldn't seem half as unique and distinct as they do!

I.. i think learning about pressure lore fucked me up so much cus... there, isn't a happy ending.
Big corporation gets away with their lies and unethical experiements, multiple people desperate for freedom die, the resistance falls at the end...
A lot of people say things like "sebastian did notginh wrong" too and while i understand that.... you guys do know he wasn't going to save painter right? He wasn't going to free any of the monsters, he just wanted HIS freedom. He might've been an innocent man before, but he directly and indirectly killed people and used his peers to get what he wanted, and that's... that's not good.
And maybe YEAH, he was going to expose the blacksite, but what would happen to the eyefestation or the angler or any of then really? Would they be put down as an "act of mercy"? There is no happy ending in pressure, it is never supposed to end well. Corporate wins, innocent people get experiemented on, selfishness and desperation walk hand in hand and nothing will ever work out except for the people at the top.
No one is good, morals are gray and smudged all over, and nothing good ever happens.

no one thinks about Freakshow like I think about Freakshow.
(that being; thinking about him at all and with a sense of strange affection. he's so terrible with so many layers that you have to unpack. except you literally don't have to and most don't.)
he's so scrungly.

I feel like corporate big wigs that pull the "we're like a family here, so treat me like it" either just don't have family, or are wildly abusive to their family, because me treating you like "family" includes me telling you to go fuck yourself to your face when you expect me to burn myself out working for you for free because we're "family".
But of course that's not what they mean. "Family" means "let me walk all over you" to them, which says a lot about what their relationships with their actual family must be like, I think.

Oh gosh, 29.
It’s the last year of my twenties and I’m not sure how I feel about it. My birthday was so much fun. I was able to enjoy it and not worry. It’s nice to know I have people in my life who care and wanted to make sure I had a good time.
Now I start living again and wondering what I’ll do with this next year of my life. It looks entirely different than it did a year ago. I’m more settled into the East Coast. I found a career path that feels like it’ll get me to the success I want. I’m generally happy with where I am.
Yet, here I am always wanting what’s next and wondering where I can improve. I hope I can feel better about myself. And be more dedicated to my health at this age. Slow life down and not feel like I’m wasting time doing things I want to do. I’d like to take more chances. I know I need to move more and make better choices with the food I eat.
This is just me attempting to shift my perspective again. I had a terribly hard year and I’m ready for some more happiness and self-improvements.
If you read my little ramble, thank you. Just needed to get this out of my head. I hope anyone that decides to read this would give a silent cheer and pass encouragement with thoughts. I’ll need it. Here we go with 29.

Looking back, I do want to rewrite the first couple of chapters of Ever-Changing Gears.
Like at least just the Prologue and Block Man’s chapter

Just finished reading Giovanni's Room by James Baldwin and. Oh my god. I was going to try and make this spoiler free, but there's no way. It's beautiful. This has been said before, but I feel the need to say it again. The narration style made David's characterization as impersonal and terrified of his own feelings that much more real. The framing of having the novel told as a recollection after the events makes the sparse happy moments torturous. And then the end. So good. I didn't cry, mostly because I was at work but also because this book, similarly to The Stranger, made me feel sort of dead inside. In a good way?? I already bought it, so I'll probably reread it within the month.

Something kinda interesting about myself is I just... Don't care when it comes to ships or top versus bottom stuff or whump versus fluff. I enjoy pretty much everything.
I enjoy exploring the different dynamics of characters being both tops and bottoms. I enjoy more extreme things like rape/noncon and torture and even death because it's applying a very real very horrific situation to a character that, in canon, probably didn't experience anything close to what I read or write. I enjoy exploring the more emotional aspects of that stuff. How would this character react? What would they be thinking? How would they feel during or after? How would they recover if they recover at all? What about those around them?
I enjoy rare pairs and seemingly random pairings because it's just interesting to me to explore these obscure ships and their dynamics. I enjoy fluff and domestic bliss and soft, sweet sex because it's cute and it's nice to read. And, sometimes, I just wanna see a character having a good time.
And I can enjoy this wide variety because it's fiction. Nobody is actually getting hurt, and what I enjoy in fiction doesn't fully translate to the real world. I don't even like sex in the real world, but I like reading about characters having sex. I have a pretty volatile opinion of people who hurt or rape others in the real world and what I think should happen to them as a result, but I can still enjoy the dynamic or the angst of such a topic in writing. And I will do this with literally every fandom I'm part of, not just httyd.

🧐🧐was watching a serial killer documentary with my family (which I hate because it feels exploitative to the victims) and of course my mom doesn’t throw away any chance to compare me to him. Every symptom every behavior. Like I know! I know you think I’m bad and I Am bad but not like that!! It’s literally my worst fear to become bad like that!! Please shush!! Go away!! (At least it wasn’t one of the ones where they inevitably list the diagnoses of said serial killer and my mom looks at me and goes Don’t You Have That One Cass like she doesn’t know exactly what she’s doing).
ANYWAYS they were showing like news footage of crowds of environmental protests in the 90s and my mom fucking goes. Hey that’s me. ?????? Mom cameo in the fucking. Unabomber documentary. Weird crossover but ok. Was not expecting to see a 30 year old My Mom in a stupid docuseries about serial killers during the battle of seattle?? Not entirely sure what that had to do with the unibomber but idk it was in there. Strange and odd.
