One day you suddenly start hearing muffled voices and the amount of them slowly increases. Eventually you find out that they are praying to you and that they are people in stories you have created! Somehow they gained sentience and discovered that you created their world.
Fantasy stories should have more “what do you mean you don’t do X” things in compare and contrast of cultures. Like the differences between peoples aren’t the stuff they show off as “These Are Our Culture :)” things, fucking everyone has food and music and folk tales, but the things they’ve always assumed that everyone has, and are baffled to discover that they don’t.
The people who are always barefoot are baffled that humans don’t have a wash basin at their front door where people can wash their feet before stepping inside?? Do they just walk in with their dirty feet? The fuck do you mean you take your shoes off?
Humans don’t have small baby-sized spellbooks for toddlers who just learned to read, so they can safely learn to practice tiny cute and harmless, age-appropriate magic spells before progressing to more mature and demanding spells? What, do they just throw teenagers completely unprepared into the arcane - hold the fuck up, is that why human sorceror mortality is so fucking high?
Dwarves who have always wondered why the entrance to human residences is so fucking big, why do you need to take up such a large area for a door that’s just there to lead downstairs to the underground halls? Are the timber walls really as thick as a human is tall? What for? And once one of them gets invited to a human house to stay and rest, nobody ever fucking believes her: That’s not the entrance, that’s the whole fucking house. 100% of the human house is aboveground, there is no tunnel to the underground levels. They might have a single storage room down there, but the aboveground section is so fucking big because that’s the whole house.

Yet another DP AU this time Dad Pariah mainly just AU of Reign Storm where when Danny tires to attack Pariah instead of attacking him Pariah is like ‘Whose child is this? I am not killing a literally ghost infant’
Danny is offended and keeps trying to attack Pariah who is just holding him by the scruff of his neck like ‘Where are your parents?’ and then sees Jack and Maddie with literally house full of ghost hunting weapons and is like ‘NOPE! Not happening’
Pariah: ATTENTION DOES THIS CHILD HAVE ANY GHOST PARENTS?
Vlad*Raising arm enthusiastically*
Danny:FUCK NO
Pariah:…Yeah no
Vlad*lowering arm crushing under his breath*
Ends up putting conquest on hold to go see his husband like ‘Hey so we have a kid now can you watch him while I go conquer the human world’…he also brought flowers as a ‘Sorry I kind of went crazy and tried to kill you… and missed multiple anniversaries stuck in a sarcophagus’…there are a lot of flowers.
Clockwork is just there like…. well didn’t see this timeline coming but i’m not complaining, thank you dear I’ll watch Daniel please try not to get shoved into sarcophagus again and be back in time for dinner.
Danny is just sitting there with a hot chocolate Clockwork gave him no idea what the fuck is going on.
Bonus Pariah:I am not trying to kill a literal ghost infant who the fuck would do that
All the other ghosts *Awkwardly avoiding eye contact*
Writing Tips
Punctuating Dialogue
✧
➸ “This is a sentence.”
➸ “This is a sentence with a dialogue tag at the end,” she said.
➸ “This,” he said, “is a sentence split by a dialogue tag.”
➸ “This is a sentence,” she said. “This is a new sentence. New sentences are capitalized.”
➸ “This is a sentence followed by an action.” He stood. “They are separate sentences because he did not speak by standing.”
➸ She said, “Use a comma to introduce dialogue. The quote is capitalized when the dialogue tag is at the beginning.”
➸ “Use a comma when a dialogue tag follows a quote,” he said.
“Unless there is a question mark?” she asked.
“Or an exclamation point!” he answered. “The dialogue tag still remains uncapitalized because it’s not truly the end of the sentence.”
➸ “Periods and commas should be inside closing quotations.”
➸ “Hey!” she shouted, “Sometimes exclamation points are inside quotations.”
However, if it’s not dialogue exclamation points can also be “outside”!
➸ “Does this apply to question marks too?” he asked.
If it’s not dialogue, can question marks be “outside”? (Yes, they can.)
➸ “This applies to dashes too. Inside quotations dashes typically express—“
“Interruption” — but there are situations dashes may be outside.
➸ “You’ll notice that exclamation marks, question marks, and dashes do not have a comma after them. Ellipses don’t have a comma after them either…” she said.
➸ “My teacher said, ‘Use single quotation marks when quoting within dialogue.’”
➸ “Use paragraph breaks to indicate a new speaker,” he said.
“The readers will know it’s someone else speaking.”
➸ “If it’s the same speaker but different paragraph, keep the closing quotation off.
“This shows it’s the same character continuing to speak.”
Just think about it...
“the Bible says homosexuality is a sin” well the Bible also has a lot of sexism, rape, incest, violence and a lot of contradictory messages in general because it was written by people and people have agendas
I don’t really think that God even has the time to care about if people are gay like if he’s got a whole world to run there are more important things anyway
And if God is love, he’s not just loving me if I am what he wants; he’s loving me as the person he made me to be, which is a queer person
You can’t say “I love you, and I made you gay but I’m sending you to hell you awful sinner” my dude that doesn’t make sense it’s not like hell has a low population is it
The god I believe in loves queer people because that’s how he made us

The Elements that I consider make up the Primary Elements are Earth Wind Fire and Water. Typical right? Books taught these as the basics and it clicked with me that these were elements that i could interact with while I casted my magic. Fire from the candles, dirt from the garden, Water from the ocean, smoke from my favorite incense. This is why I consider them to be the Touchable Elements

Secondary Elements are things that still interact with us but in a less tangible way. Time, Space, Light and Dark make up my second tier of elements. But Storm how can you even classify those as elements? It’s just Light and Dark, and i’m pretty sure Time/space is science NOT magic. But they are still there and they interact with us on the daily. Light for day, Light to help the plants grow, Darkness for rest, Darkness for solitude, Time for each moment you cherish, Time for every bitter-sweet memory, Space for where you vacation to, space for the cosmos and galaxies. They still don’t necessarily physically touch us, but they still interact with our lives and act as a bridge between The last group. Personally i think that the secondary elements are a mesh between both Primary and Tertiary elements.

-The Effectors-
The easiest way to define these four elements is by the definition of Effect: a change that is a result or consequence of an action or other cause. The Elements i consider to be effectors are Luck, Fate, Order and Chaos. “A Stroke of Luck” “A Twist of Fate” “Put in Order” “Chaos and confusion” These elements are the ones that help shape and define our overall lives. Ever carry around a lucky pencil to try and boost your chances on that test you didn’t study for? That would fall under the Luck element. Do you ever just find that thing that just CLICKS with you and you feel extremely drawn to it? That would fall under Fate as it is subconsciously calling out to you. Chaos is spontaneous, Chaos is being able to make a spell from random things you find in your junk drawer. It doesn’t make sense why a post it note and a DD battery would make for a good charging station for your crystals but it’s what you’ve got and you make it work. Order is methodical, Order is waiting until 3 am on the night of the full moon to begin your Year and a Day in Witchcraft. Order is doing things the way they have always been done. So the effectors all play a part in shaping our lives both magically and mundane.

It's apparently some challenge, and another TikTokker doesn't believe Tucker when he says he knows someone who knows pretty much every language. So Danny, who has a built in cheat code to understand all dead languages, proceeds to say the word Hair in every single language he knows.
Tucker posts it.
Two weeks later, Jon Kent is scrolling through TikTok while lounging on the couch, his parents in the kitchen being gross.
There's this weird kid, face blurred and voice out of pitch for privacy, saying the word "hair" in every language he knows. It's a long video, and apparently there's three parts.
Then the boy says "hair" in perfect Kryptonian.
Then the boy breaks down and laughs, continuing in Kryptonian to say
"<<I think we're gonna have to blur me out man, that one was probably a mistake. I can already feel Superman breathing down my neck.>>"
"I can't understand you man, you're not speaking English."
The blurred teen laughs again and switches, repeating himself in English.
Clark is already by Jon's side by the time Jon looks up, eyes wide.
They call Bruce.
