*SHAKES YOU AGGRESSIVELY*

TELL ME ABOUT YOUR “Zarc is an incarnation of The Supreme King” THEORY I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS YOU HAVE GOT ME HOOKED I AM OBSESSED WITH THESE FIRE TAKES YOU ARE SPITTING OP

Jaden and Yuya are now my favorite dynamic of all time, and now that I’m being shown the similarities I’m wondering if it’s really just a coincidence GX and Arc-V are my absolute favorites out of all the Yugioh series this is insane 👀

Hehe. Gladly <3

(Uh. This got long so it's going beneath the cut for the sake of people's dashboards)

Well, first off, there's just a lot of similarities between Zarc (the original Zarc, before he split into the Yu-bois) and Jaden. Both can talk to duel spirits, both start out chipper and are driven to the edge by grief, both split into various personas/people (Jaden with himself and the supreme king, Zarc obviously into the Yu-bois), both fuse with their ace monster(s), and both carry the title of "Supreme King". Most interesting, to me at least, is how both shape a lot of their identities around what they think people want from them.

Zarc was content to be an amazing duelist, but felt pressured to put on a good show, to be more brutal. Jaden, more subtly, constructs most of his personality off being easygoing, chill, and carefree, because he internalized that his emotions are dangerous, and people would rather deal with happy Jaden than the emotional disregulation mess that he actually is.

And both of them, when they get overwhelmed, adopt a mentality of "Well, the world might as well burn with me."

Jaden, rather than feel his grief, locks off his own trauma behind a brick wall and goes on smiling. Yuya, rather than deal with his dads disappearance, does the same.

I'd also like it noted that supreme king Jaden and supreme king Yuya have yellow eyes.

And some teal/orange eye asymmetry

Honestly, even dragon form Yuya and the Supreme Kings armor have similar silhouettes.

Mostly its in the spikes on the shoulders and elbows, and the fact that Zarc Yuya forms a weird chestplate (and that this is the same art team and visual style)

Another thing I get hung up on is that both Jaden and Yuri have super poly. In GX, Jaden had to go through an entire arc of misery to get that card, and Yuri just? Has it?

So my little headcanon, is that in the original timeline, before the dimensions were split, Zarc had the spirit of The Supreme King, able to command duel monsters and wield The Gentle Dark. Unfortunately for everyone, he got a teensy bit traumatized before he could enact his destiny of defeating The Light Of Destruction. Using his powers, he fused with his dragons, nearly destroyed the world, etc, etc. When he split, the Supreme King couldn't just split into four the same way the rest of his soul could, and so while the dimensions split, the past was rewritten to attach the power to a different soul, with a different guardian to boot. Similar to how the timeline got all borked to set everything back to a late nineties world of duel monsters.

Which would make Yuya 1/4 of an alternate universe version of Jaden. And I think there's a lot of fun to be had with that idea :)

post-wipeout patch up on a tuesday afternoon (embarrassing) [electric guitar]

[stealingyourbones]

Peter Parker dimension travels to Metropolis. Not MCU Peter, but 616 late 20s Peter Parker who can forge his identity and works for Lex Corp, initially not realizing it’s a bad company, but when he does he continues working for them to slowly yet surely make plans to expose and dismantle the company.

When Danny enters the Fenton portal for the very first time, he still trips and shocks himself but at the same time damages the inside of the portal enough that it can’t sustain itself past the point of changing Danny’s molecules.

The electricity and damage done to both Danny and the portal isn’t something Danny, Sam, and Tucker can cover up and his parents find out immediately. They’re more concerned about their son then the portal (they have the blueprints for the portal and can rebuild it later but can’t replace their son if something happened to him) and go through a lot of things emotions regarding the existence of ghost human hybrids.

Danny’s new biology could easily be passed as meta human traits. Unfortunately President Lex Luther had just recently passed laws against meta humans. Meaning they can’t risk people find out about Danny’s new powers, at all. The Fentons decide that Danny should live with one of Maddie or Jacks relatives off grid until he can control his new abilities better.

luckily Jacks sister, Martha, and her husband have experience with a super powered child and after their son moved to the city could probably use a hand on their farm. All Jack needed to do was call.

Just caught up with Natlan's archon quest and lord help me, I have a burning need to see Alhaitham and Ororon interact.

I truly feel that they would vibe perfectly. Not in a ship way, but like, in the way of Kaveh quietly wailing: "For archons' sake, he's brought another tacky thing into the house. Traveler, please do something; they've been staring eye to eye over the coffee table for like an hour now but haven't said a single word. I don't know what to do. Send help."

At some point in time, it would be fun to see some of the tragic mxtx characters reincarnate together in the same world or some shit. And they just- so casually have conversations about their past lives like-

---

SJ: Well surely you must understand what it's like being branded as the worst scrounge of the entire cultivation world, and have everyone think you deserve eternal damnation and be torn apart limb from limb. And I literally did get branded. So did you! I hardly see any reason for you to be so enthusiastic about your predicament.

WWX: Yes, I know! It's not easy being so popular!

SJ: That's not-

WWX: Everyone loves me!

SJ: Didn't you hear what I said?? They wanted you dead!

WWX, winking: who doesn't~

WWX: Did you see how many cultivators showed up during the Siege of the Burial Mounds?? Just for me! And the Wens too. But mostly for me!

SJ: ...

SJ: I'm not really one to brag, but every cultivator in Jianghu did show up for my trial...

WWX: Don't be modest, we're all celebrities in here! There's no such thing as bad media rep!

SJ: What-

NMJ: I know what that's like. I mean- the whole being dismembered thing.

SJ: You don't get to talk! You got unacquainted with your extremities after you died! It's not the same!

WWX: Hey, at least you still had a corpse! I fucking didn't. Even my soul got torn apart in the Burial Mounds.

SJ: Tch. You still got lucky. I wish my soul didn't remain so I wouldn't be here now talking to the likes of you.

WWX: Speak for yourself. You're the one that died alone thinking no one loved you-

XL: That's quite enough. I'm sure SJ had ppl who cared for him, like his sisters from the brothel, and that brother of his that came to rescue him. He was a very sweet guy, reminds me of myself quite a bit actually.

WWX: OH yeahhh, because both of you-

SJ: Another word about Qi-ge, and I'll throw you into the Endless Abyss, which I'm confident you're not to survive.

WWX: Are kind! Coz the both of you are very kind people, definitely not because you both coz got stabbed by a gazillion sharp things!

SJ and HC:

XL and YQY:

---

And it's not even trauma dumping. Like they're describing things that happened in their past lives like checking off a grocery list. Also, I need them to have the worst kind of dark/morbid humour, that it's just bad. Ik WWX definitely would.

Miles Morales Batfam Crossover WHEN?

I've tried looking for a dark matter style crossover but with miles morales and what have i found, NOTHING??? I had some hope guys.

He would be PERFECT for a crossover fic, let that be comic miles or spiderverse miles , and you can modify the story anyway you want to make it fit in your timeline.

He is a punny kid, so many puns the batfam would die with him because thats THEIR THING- Dumb puns, in the spiderverse.

Like come on, name me a teenager, a young teenager, with no guidance at all about being spiderman (in the movies) and sure he has parents but they don't know and he is ALONE. (starts with an M)

And also he goes to school in JERSEY- guess who lives in NJ- THE BATFAM? THATS GOTHAM

There is so many ways to make it fit.

Also imagine the angst from being in a universe (if we ignore like a lot of spiderverse) and then suddenly you are 15-16 getting thrown into a different universe a nobody trained you for the worst case situation and you are clever enough to survive, but your parents must be worried sick.

And please do not give me just Duke Thomas and Miles Morales friendship, Miles bonds with ALL the family.

Dynamics i want to see ? 14-15 yo Damian wayne with Miles, Duke with Miles. BRUCE AND MILES THE POTENTIAL? two geniuses, a genius all grown and all with his issues and this meta kid who also needs guidance and has spunk.

Idk if i explained myself well but i will later at some point please authors see the potential, SEE IT

from "your dad" -> "who do you think sent runaan to kill dad"

[slothelephant]

Now that the Featherington sisters are acting like sisters, I want to imagine that Penelope overhears Prudence talking about a woman’s pleasure being more subtle than a man’s and in horror tells her to send Dankworth to talk to Colin.

Also Benedict’s season will be wonderful but I NEED it to include a side plot of a man falling passionately, desperately in love with Portia. It would be great if it’s reciprocated but the important part is that he is just obscenely in love with her and very unsubtle about it.

[umbrellajam]

listen. Jack Drake and David Cain as civilian/international assassin flip sides of the same coin. proud boasting about how their child is the best child, and resentful seething about how Bruce Wayne isn't fit to parent a single hair on their child's head

The dad from the movie Epic is autistic as FUCK just LOOK at the guy. The leafmen and other forest tinies are his hyperfixation. I can't blame him for getting so excited about an advanced civilization of tiny people living in the woods. I AM that person. What the hell.

i like to think he shows her bugs he finds bc she thinks they’re cool too,, but she also likes to eat them…🪲✨
