Humans are Space Orcs… And They Can be a Bit Clumsy
“We captured a total of 117 non-combatant humans, Ser Xing,” panted the slight six legged creature that was Talia, struggling to keep up with their superior’s much longer strides. Talia had had a long day. Human eyes were much less sensitive than their own, and the human holding cells might as well have been supernovae to them.
Their superior only grunted. Vakam was a different species from a different nebula and found most other species both confusing and annoying. It was tired of going against humans in a pointless battle for nothing. Humans already had solar systems and planets gifted to them, they certainly didn’t need the dead worlds of the solar system they were trying to take currently. The only thing Vakam liked about humans was their durability; it didn’t know exactly how durable they were, but it had seen them take many nasty falls and survive.
Speaking of things Vakam didn’t know, Vakam unfortunately did not notice that one or two of the cells it walked by were empty, and it certainly didn’t know that three of the humans it worked so hard to gather were in the ship’s air ducts, smoldering in the non-human temperatures. But ignorance is bliss, and Vakam kept walking.
Vakan stopped walking when something fell through the ceiling to the floor in front of it. Plates of metal that used to be a vent and duct clattered resoundingly across the hallway. As the echos faded, it lowered its arms from a protective to offensive position. Behind it, Talia whimpered in pain, clutching the hearing organ in their thorax in an attempt to protect it from the soundwaves.
With much ado, groans, and curses, three humans attempted to untangle the few limbs they were in possession of. Vakam groaned. Despite their fall, they appeared to be mostly unharmed. If only their durability was proportional to their planning skills, they might have made it somewhere. Vakam scooped them up and unceremoniously plopped them back into cells, this time taking care to find all the primitive tools they were in possession of.
#Silly humans#not all humans are durable#but the ones that Vakam comes across sure are#the ones cleared for long-distance exploration are usually pretty sturdy#humans are space oddities#HaSO#humans are space australians#humans are space orcs#humans are space fae#humans are weird#sci fi#sci fi writing#oc writing#my writing

i believe Danny is ADHD enough to not realize he doesn't actually have super-durability but has just subconsciously learned to minimize damage as much as possible
#*dougdoug voice* BEGIN DISCUSSION *incredibly loud buzzer noise*#Danny Phantom#as someone with ADHD i do not remember Times Before Big Change all that much#i don't remember my skillsets from back then. i don't remember if it was always like this or if something changed over that time#to be fair in this case i think he is capable of healing from fucked up shit. but it still fucks him up as much as it would a regular human#he can survive worse stuff but he's not any more durable than a regular human. maybe less because of the nature of ectoplasm#he just. can survive longer#OH i'm just realizing that this has super duper angst potential#like Danny being like ''yeah i've survived crazy shit i can survive mom & dad/the giw/whatever''#& then he like. realizes very suddenly that he cannot survive This#mhm mhm taking notes for stuff n things

Sooo, according to the descriptions you provided, you would be a superhuman then. Modified to survive in hostile environments... what a fascinating news
I mean, I guess??
I'm only like, "a bit stronger than average" according to my P.E. and Karate teachers.
It's just that for some flippin' reason, I'm stronger than every single person on this stupid planet! DX
#(ooc: all humans were modified long ago so when they would be able to physically survive whenever they got their “Promised Land”)#(It's only “super”-strength to us modern humans)#(being able to dent metal your bare hands is as normal to ark humans as oh idk)#(being able to rip paper)#(even the ones that are considered 'weak' by Ark standards are stronger and more durable than any human living today)#oddworld#oddtumblr#mingotposting#oddworld oc#ask#ask box#worldbuilding

Im in such an obey me mood today haha
other than "pls dont tell asmo about that",,,, i have questions about these freaking vegetables (im putting under the cut since im talking about food and bad eating habits/diet related stuff)
im assuming they would have to be mixed with other regular ingredients to prevent the hunger but it sounds like ppl would use them as the main component in a dish or just eat them by themselves
So does all of it get digested? No leftovers (waste) comes out the other end im guessing? is it like a magic type thing?? it has to be right? Cause if not...ur body will take the calories needed to replace the ones burnt, take the nutrients, and the rest will just get tossed out
And since it doesnt make you full, like wouldnt it be way too easy to overeat this type of thing? so you could accidentally end up making urself go to the restroom more often :/
Ig if it gives u the nutrients u need that itll be useful then. So maybe its a 'heres ur macros for the day' type dealo? but u still have to go eat an actual meal or make sure u mix it with other stuff tho
#ik its just a silly joke type text but i do like to take these things and overthink them and apply them to real life#its just interesting to me cause ik the answers will never come so its like a brain exercise or something#eating disorder tw#just to be safe#but yea..................#im gonna just go off in the tags cause im just wondering about when this would be useful cause regular veggies are the better choice to me#ig that could be useful in a very specific circumstance where you went over calories but still need certain macros..but like...its veggies#going over for some for veggies isnt that big a deal imo but if ur mostly concerned with deficit then ud cut anywhere u can...#u could also like use it to lessen the calories in the dish overall and maybe add more of the ingredients u actually like#tho i feel like it would not remove that many calories in the first place#and ud probably wouldnt even get to add that much more of what u actually want in comparison#and then...ur gonna be hungry cause u took away a big volume of the food which was the regular vegetables#but for me when im making food the last thing im worried about in my dish is the freaking vegetables#im trying to add more veggies and less of everything else ._.#i feel like this would make more sense if it was like a sugary treat#especially if this is supposed to be a thing that helps with cravings#u get to eat and enjoy the thing without consequence (for the most part) while eating a more restrictive diet#tho it would probably be even more dangerous than the veggies when it comes to overeating...#idk how the demon biology works but it seems about the same to humans but just more durable#and with asmos eating habits...i can already see in my minds eye whats gonna go down#it just seems like a bad idea all around to tell him about this!#obey me nightbringer

honestly i just really really like soft, domestic exploration of bodies for monsterfucking. just having two people with very different body plans getting curious about what the other has and poking around without embarrassment or shame or judgement. not even really in a horny sense either. i like the domesticity of aaravi getting very curious about miranda's mouth or claws and how they work and miranda letting her open them and feel around and work the muscles, all the while laying there and purring like a giant cat. it's very sweet to me.
#all the care guide says is 'biomass'#miravi.txt#miranda in turn is. likewise SO curious about human anatomy and aaravi.#she likes how delicately and finely humans are put together but how comparatively durable they are.#she likes to feel the joints as they move and touch along the tendons#aaravi feels so much like a well oiled machine to her. like a luxury item all wrapped up in soft leather and fur and warm to the touch.#it feels weird to aaravi at first but i think its good for her#good to have miranda just neutrally appreciating her body and how it works#good to have miranda constantly wanting to hold her hands and just. look at them. because theyre pretty.

Apart from upper body surgery, Roman didn't require much else to maintain such a masculine figure. When he was dropped as a baby, the resulting fall damaged the pituitary gland in his brain, causing his growth (and aggression levels) to go haywire the day he hit puberty. Before then he remained a very small child, one easily pushed around by his parents but remembering every strike, every insult and slap he suffered at their hands until he was old enough to fight back. It came as a nasty shock to Mr. and Mrs. Sionis when the child they resented for years as being slow, ugly and unfeminine seemingly transformed overnight into an uncontrollable monster hellbent on tormenting them at every opportunity.
#💀 || musings#💀 || headcanons#gender dysphoria tw#gender dysphoria cw#child abuse tw#child abuse cw#I just remembered I never really talk much about Roman's issues as a trans man?#He does take testosterone injections to maintain his musculature but that's about it#He's very inclined to mistrust doctors and medical procedures after getting locked up in Arkham#Treating him like a freak in his opinion#The rest of his body though? All natural#And his parents HATED it#It's all their own fault for dropping him on his head the day he was born#Otherwise he might have turned out very differently#But yeah Roman's angry for REASONS#He literally can't help it due to the injury his brain sustained#Frankly it's amazing he survived to adulthood bc of repeated neglect#Like letting him suffer from a rabid racoon bite bc they'd rather not be late to the big bash the Waynes are throwing#Leaving Roman at home alone to suffer all weekend and nearly DIE#So yeah Roman is a modern marvel as to how durable the human body is 😂#Can I force myself to do one response today let's see#Wope up very late and very tired bleh

Actually, scratch that, I’m cutting the break short. Good evening, everyone. 💙
#To keep things succinct; the man I was courting tragically found me too intense.#However we persevere nonetheless and refuse to wallow.#I do so wish for an apology from him but alas I fear his ego limits the chances.#Whatever. I went shopping today! And I got the most darling garnet jewellery set.#They look like scales! Snake scales… Dragon scales… just. scales.#And the colour; don’t even get me started on the colour.#Remember kids ! a man will; much like rest of humanity; wither and age and rot to nothing.#A durable; well taken care of and appropriately respected stone will not. <3#But to return to the topic; I was planning on deleting all social media but.#Self isolation won’t help; even if I have no social energy.#I don’t necessarily have to push myself out of my boundaries.#Social media can also exist solely to reblog 20 posts of your man and then disappear into the void for the next 43 hours.#I likely won’t be interacting much or going out of my way because I do not have the time or energy but. I am cheering everyone on. <3#✧.*🌹

the thing with lily is that. if you look at her. she looks like a rogue. she looks like she's the fast, nimble, hit-'em-while-they're-looking-the-other-way type. yes, she's got muscles, but she's also still fairly lean just because she takes after kat body-type wise, and she's also short.
she looks so much like she should be a rogue and also acts like that too - she's really, really good at slight-of-hand tricks, both with and without using her powers, and she's litterally a gymnast so she's flexible and can do fun flips n shit
but the thing is
is that lily's the goddamn tank
#like. yes sasha is the strong one#but the one who takes the hits? that's lily#yes sasha IS more durable than a standard human but still#lily takes the hits. lily takes all the hits.#i mean the thing is is that sasha is even smaller than lily#so she ALSO does not look like the requisite strong-person of the team#if anyone is the rogue it's ben#and who the hell knows what tally is

Was looking through some doodles from the past month and remembered this exists. Anyways dupe hcs upon yee
#keese draws#oxygen not included#not gonna tag the dupes since they were drawn from memory but they’re supposed to be ashkan and nikola#but yeah I generally imagine dupes as looking like very underbaked humans#basically as a means of cutter corners to cut power costs while powering the pods was the primary problem#as such their senses are all around worse than your average human#I do imagine they’re also generally more dense but also more durable#anyways I need to shower now

It got me thinking about dbh androids again, when they start getting older than normal and malfunctioning. I mean, I guess the average durability of a common android is around 2~4 yrs. If mf got money they gonna buy another one, if mf loves 'em android they gonna try fixing 'em when things go south, but what if u ain't either of these 2? Damn.
#dbh#detroit beome human#and stop acting like androids live 100yrs w/o problems or CL really cares about make 'em super durable#we all know ain't nothing like that

waait au where the gang wasnt able to steal the box in time and garrett traded it for bain…..how wohld that play out…..
Ahhhh, you again. A repeat offender ♥️
What this cool anon is referring to are these emails, the coded ones involving a sketchy deal between the Kataru and Solomon Garrett (that guy you can’t kill in Breakin’ Feds 😔)
The Congressman they’re talking about is the Elephant, who gets thrown into jail off-screen. So these are the emails that lead the gang to steal that box from Garrett, but what if they fail? What if they can’t crack the code in time? As you probably know, the PAYDAY timeline runs along line the release dates.
Bain was going to be traded soon after the Elephant was put into prison, and we see him here in Henry’s Rock just a few days later.
(NEW THEORY the room we see is a temporary holding room for Bain because the Kataru were going to trade him, and being on an island off the coast of Oregon? Not the best place to trade someone)
(Bro is in the Dentist’s office, worst place to be tbh)
Remember that this is in April, which is a full 6 months before Bain would be rescued within canon.
I think that Bain would have his clothes taken and exchanged. He’d be strapped to a hospital bed to recover a bit and have psychologists come in to evaluate his mental state. Garrett is the type to do things for the greater good, so what if he wanted Bain to actually stand trial? I’m sure that Bain couldn’t do that so soon because it looks like someone shattered glass over Bain’s knees…
I also think that the crew would have an easier time rescuing him than they did in canon. There’s also a real possibility that the news would get ahold of Bain’s mugshot if he recovered enough to have one, so this is a timed thing. If Bain is stabilized enough to get out of the hospital and sent for processing then it’s gonna be bad, bad enough to where Hoxton would sympathize with Bain on having his face on every channel and screen.
If Bain would have recovered enough within a few days then he’d be put into an interrogation room and yelled at. No way that would be enough for him to crack, though. Even while handcuffed to a table, Bain is still intimidating; especially to people who know nothing about him. Garrett would stick around to make sure the police aren’t doing anything illegal like beating him… although he might conveniently “take a break” if he believes it’s for the best. I guess that shows that the Dentist and Garrett are similar despite being on opposite sides of the law.
When they break in, Bain wouldn’t be able to walk on his own; he’d sling an arm around a crew member and lean on them. Bain’s happy to meet his gang for the first time but he’s also in mission mode, no nonsense. Bain tells them that their situation is bad because the Kataru have all three coffers :) then they’d burn all the evidence and escape.
So almost directly afterwards they gotta do Henry’s Rock and Shacklethorne while Bain’s stitches heal (hooray, free medical from tax payerssss) so the Kataru don’t have a chance to split everything up or send a ton of mercenaries to that base.
Hope that answered it! Very good thought question, I love it to ramble about those types of things 😄
#thanks for the ask :)#I like u anon#ask tag#payday 2#Bain payday 2#payday 2 spoilers#lol bain better call saul™︎#also Twitter simps for Bain without even seeing bro’s face#ok ok angst AU where the video that shows Bain is actually being transmitted from somewhere deeper in the facility#Bain can hear the gunfire and the dentist is silently threatening him#the whole hand on shoulder thing. Bain cannot signal or anything#real possibility that the dentist will get his hands on all the pieces of the puzzle…..#me making Bain more durable than your average human because he’s half-alien 🤭

Danny wears sunglasses 24/7.
So much so that slowly it's been ingrained into everyone's minds that he's never taken them off. Like, they can't even remember a time where he hasn't worn sunglasses.
It's just like, his thing.
Why does he wear them? Well, because Danny's previous blue eyes changed to a startling, glowing green that he knows the GIW would eat up and use as a reason to force him into their custody.
Solution?
Sunglasses.
His parents? Oh yea they went all in when he they found out why he was wearing them (Reveal gone right au babyy). They made them extremely durable; they can film audio, take pictures, take videos, see through walls and even track down ecto-signatures for whenever he's tracking down a ghost in human form, see through walls and self-cleaning.
(The ectoplasm tracking system is for when they aren't close enough to set off his ghost sense.)
He honestly believes his parents watched a spy movie before they built him these, but it's not like he's going to complain about it. The only time he isn't wearing them is when he goes ghost, you know as a way to not link him to Fenton or whatever.
So, Danny meets John Constantine while the both of them were on the hunt for a ghost who was causing problems in the area. Danny manages to find them first, the ghost in question being an animal who was terrorizing a place because it didn't understand the fact it was dead yet and wanted to protect it's children.
John Constantine comes while Danny is pacifying it. He watches as Danny calms it down enough to get to the babies and sends it to the Ghost Zone after promising it to get them somewhere safe.
John Constantine also saw his eyes, because he pulled his sunglasses off to show them to the ghost as a silent sign to trust him. John Constantine of course asked what he was going to do with the babies, and Danny just sent them over to Sam.
After that he decided to keep an eye on Danny because of his eyes. Which were the eyes of a ghost, and he was genuinely thinking Danny was possessed before that went out the window. So he thinks Danny is a ghost pretending to be human and wasn't able to hide his eyes so he wore sunglasses.
Danny neither confirm nor deny that.
So Danny just kinda followed him around until Constatine eventually made him into a contact whenever he was dealing with ghosts that he could peacefully deal with instead of just forcefully banishing them to the Infinite Realms.
This, eventually, comes to light when Constantine goes "I know a guy." In front of the whole Justice League, bonus points if they somehow come to the conclusion that Danny is Constantine's secret child, sidekick or both.
#dc x dp#dp x dc#dpxdc#dp x dc crossover#dcxdp#dc x dp crossover#Right Danny isn't the Ghost King.#Mostly because I don't headcannon that#he's literally just a guy

But if Batman won't adopt Danny... who will?
Starfire, and she is all over her new little brother!
Shortly after establishing the Teen Titans, Robin (Dick) introduces “Phantom” to the group, because seriously, he’s not introducing him as “Danny.” Kinda defeats the purpose of a secret identity when you use your name in your superhero moniker. And shows Phantom his room.
Robin’s actual goal is to get Phantom to join the Titans, but even taking short cuts through the Ghost Zone, Jump City is still a good ways away from Amity Park, and he has parents, so… It’s still a nice gesture and all, and Phantom will come visit, but no.
Still, he’s never met other teens who are heroes in their own right like he is, so he’s excited to meet Robin’s new team. The other Titans think it’s a little weird for this not-member to have his own room in the Tower, but the place is huge, and Robin trusts him, so it’s fine. It’s a bit awkward at first as they’re all still getting used to each other, but Phantom quickly makes friends with all of them.
But it’s his friendship with Starfire that grows first and fastest. As soon as he finds out she’s an alien from another planet, he latches on and must know everything. Starfire more than welcomes the attention. While she knows the Titans care for her, they’re not always… receptive to the traditions and customs of her culture. Phantom, on the other hand, is enraptured as she tells him about her culture, her holidays, the planets she’s been to, everything.
So she asks if he’d be interested in learning Tamaranean? Yes! 100%! Absolutely! Phantom picks up the language quickly and returns the favor by helping Starfire with her English. While the ability to absorb language through lips is handy, it’s by no means perfect, and Phantom helps her with things like contractions, slang, idioms, etc.
It also helps that after a couple sparring sessions with each other, Phantom and Starfire realize just how durable their partner is. For Starfire, the people and things on Earth can be so delicate. And for Phantom, if he doesn’t watch himself and hurts a human too badly, it’s just more justification to call him an “evil ghost” that should be ripped apart molecule by molecule. Both are thrilled to finally be able to fight all out again without worrying about the consequences if they lose. And Starfire also uses it to teach Phantom some Tamaranean martial arts for aerial combat so maybe he’ll stop crashing into so many walls.
But what really changes the relationship is the Body Swap incident (not to be confused with the Freaky Friday incident). Similar to what happened with the Puppet King in Switched, Phantom and Starfire switch bodies while fighting an enemy. Unlike what happened in Switched, Phantom and Starfire and two teen powerhouses with green energy powers triggered by emotions. And the emotional triggers they use are in the same ballpark. Starfire’s “unbridled joy of flight” to fly is very similar to how Phantom revels in the pure freedom of flight he feels. Both get angry when they use blasts. It’s very much a “if you believe in it, you can do it” kind of power set. Starfire can’t really figure out Phantom’s more ghostly abilities like invisibility or intangibility, but they very quickly adapt to each other’s shared powers on the fly during battle. But there’s one power Starfire wants to use against the hordes of minions that Phantom won’t share the trigger for: the Ghostly Wail. He tries to tell her it’s not a good move, that it’ll use up too much power, it should only be used as a last resort, it’ll cause too much collateral damage, etc., but Starfire wants to know, and eventually he tells her.
“T-terror… and desperation.”
Starfire rushes to give Phantom the biggest hug ever because those are such horrible feelings, and she doesn’t want to imagine what conditions must have led to him developing such a power because no one should have to feel such feelings. He is right; and that is not a power she needs to use to win this battle. The minions are defeated, the villain is forced into a temporary retreat, and the Teen Titans return to the Tower to regroup and plan.
However, Starfire doesn’t know how to power through and hold onto Phantom’s ghostly form, and as soon as the adrenaline from the fight wears off, rings of white light spread out of her middle, and Phantom turns back into Danny in the middle of the living room.
But more importantly, everyone needs to get out of the way RIGHT NOW because while Phantom can ignore his biological needs for days, Danny can’t, and Starfire has never had to pee this badly ever in her whole life and everyone needs to MOVE, PLEASE! as she rushes into the nearest bathroom.
Phantom/Danny is now panicking, because even as an alien, he’s pretty sure she’s bound to notice that some bits of male anatomy that should be there are… missing. He’s begging her, through the door in Tamaranean, not to tell anyone about his secret. He’s not ready to come out yet, and he’s honestly pretty scared he’s about to lose her friendship, too. Starfire doesn’t really care. So long as you’re a strong warrior, Tamaraneans don’t care what’s going on in someone’s pants, and she’s just relieved she didn’t have to figure out different plumbing while in his body. Starfire opens the door. While she knows that the people of Earth are not always as understanding, Danny need not fear her. She will not tell anyone he's trans until he is ready to tell them himself and supports him and goes in for a hug.
Except you haven’t washed your hands; gross! They both laugh it off, but when Starfire goes to wash her hands, the water freezes. The cold energy in Danny’s core is building, and Starfire doesn’t know how to let it out. They need to switch back to their own bodies soon, or Danny’s body, and Starfire, might not survive. A little more training so Starfire can turn back into Phantom, and the Titans are ready for the final act, take down the final villain and Starfire and Phantom are back in their own bodies.
But after that, Phantom is no longer Starfire’s friend. Danny is her little brother, and she tells him her name is Koriand’r, or Kor’i for short.
