I really want to give baby Damian Martha Waynes eyes.
And then take them away before Bruce has a chance to see them.
Just like for one reason or another the Batfam ends up having to go to the League and Damian is sent off by Talia to join his peers in morning katas while the elder family members meet in her office for something.
And of course all of the Batfam are little snoops so they walk around her office and look at the documents and few pictures she has. And then suddenly Tim notices something.
"I thought Damian had your eyes Talia?" Tim says staring down at a picture of a 3 or 4 year old Damian with muddy green eyes rather than the bright almost toxic ones the family is used to.
"No, not at all, I don't even remember what color my eyes originally were." Talia responds barely digging through some files that Bruce needs.
"What does that mean?" Dick asks harshly.
" You didn't truly think the Al Ghul eyes were truly the Al Ghul eyes did you?" Talia scoffs "They're Lazarus eyes, why do you think Jason's eyes match ours?"
"I. I didn't think of that, huh" Jason mumbles dragging his hands along the different books Talia keeps.
"So... So when did Damian die?"
That brought silence to the room.
Jason stopped walking, Dick stopped breathing, Tim was looking sadly at Talia, eye shifting to Bruce as he stared at a wall.
"About 3 months before his 5th birthday, it was before my Father and I started to actually train him. An assassin snuck in after infiltrating the guard for a few months. Apparently he wanted Damians death to be slow. He perforated a lung, I managed to get there and kill the bastard, but Damian couldn't be saved without the pit." Talia says robotically.
"I do miss his eyes though, such a soft green" she almost whispers.
Bruce walks over to Tim, lightly taking the photo.
His breath shuttered for a moment.
He stroked his fingers over the eyes that he will never see again, that were taken from him far to soon. Both times.
"Those are my mother's eyes." He says
"He had my mother's eyes."
He stares, unable to do anything but mourn what he didn't know he lost again.
"Do you have more pictures from before?"
"Of course beloved, I'll make you copies"
The room remained silent spare the shuffling of papers and the drag of Bruce's finger over the glass frame
I just now realized why Vlad calls Danny “little badger”. It’s because his hair turns black and white. It was so? Obvious?
it takes me like 3 days to wake up in the morning
There’s this massive idea in the phanon that when Danny died he left behind a body (as it should this idea is amazing).
First of all I want to know what happens to Danny when he turns human again. Is he just a ghost shape shifting to look human? Does he go back to his body and it looks like he just passed out? Does he overshadow his body? Did he just, like, regrow his entire mortal form?
Either way, that’s not what I’m here for. There is another, slightly less popular idea that Danny’s body is constantly decaying. I am here to propose a middleman.
Now all the basics happen. Danny dies, he sees his body and panics. He decides to bury it because, you know, dead and all that. Except he’s under the impression that he just straight up died, no funky business. So he happened to fall asleep that night.
When he woke up he couldn’t see. He couldn’t breath. He shouldn’t need to breath but everything was suffocating. Danny tries to phase out but it doesn’t work. So he digs widely because he can’t breathe, where is he, he needs out. And he finally manages to drag himself out of his own grave to realize he’s completely human.
So, obviously he goes about his day, literally what else can he do? Except he feels a bit more stiff than normal. Throughout the day it gets harder and harder to move until he’s struggling to even stand. Then it finally hits him. Rigamortus.
Now, I firmly believe that the Drs Fenton would be the most accepting parents in the world.
However. If you really want to up the angst factor…
Let’s say we’re in a reveal goes wrong situation. Let’s also say we ascribe to the trans!danny hc.
Now, hypothetically, Jack and Maddie had been really accepting up till this point. And, hypothetically, they think their kid had been replaced with a ghost.
Would they think a ghost took away their little girl?
Few people know this, but Danny is a great cook.
He had to be. He was living with neglectful parents who sometimes forget about their children and forget to eat themselves. Sam and Tucker love his cooking as he cooks both meat and vegan dishes.
Amity Park has a yearly cooking competition and technically Danny's won it 4 years in a row.
The first year Jack and Danny entered the competition. Danny did the cooking and Jack added a "Fenton secret ingredient". That secret ingredient being ectoplasm. That day the food tasted the judges just as much as the judges tasted the food. The Fenton family was banned from the cooking competitions from that day forth.
The second year Danny entered the competition under a fake name. Unfortunately Dash had heard about him entering the competition and stole Danny's food for his own and winning the competition. Fortunately Sam stole the ribbon from Dash and gave it to Danny.
The third year Danny made sure that Dash couldn't steal his food but Cujo had also followed Danny into the competition and the bully had spread rumors about Danny putting dog in his food. And again Danny was disqualified. Sam bought him his own trophy because she knows he'd win, but it wasn't the same.
The fourth year Danny entered again, but this time so did the lunch lady and when the food was being judged people ran due to the lunch lady being a ghost the competition was canceled and no one won.
This year Danny was going to win. He had always used the recipes provided to him by his pen pal Alfred pennyworth and he was going to win fair and square and prove he was a good cook.
So, from TC to everything TOA, everyone expresses their distaste for Apollester's haikus. I believe that they don't actually hate on the technical execution (he's usually adhering to the form pretty well, unless you take into account that haikus are usually nature-themed in some way, but there's such a thing called artistic freedom, so it shouldn't factor in that much). Most people not liking his haikus don't have that knowledge on the technicalities of it anyway.
But any haiku, even the very first one in TC, was just Apollo "going through the motions". It seemed as if he did it because he felt like he had to, like it was expected of him as the god of poetry (and I can understand this, as there are soo many mentions of him being tied to the sun in the pjo!verse, and just as many of him being the god of archery, but not as many about poetry, so of course he wants to remind people). It's performative, and not in a good way.
Art is always best if it's coming straight from the heart. And any time Apollo does perform something heartfelt (like he did about Daphne and Hyacinthus and Jason), it is well-received.
In my opinion, Apollo's journey as Lester Papadopoulos isn't just about changing his character's personality, it's also about him redeveloping appreciation for art and its ability to put your emotions on display in any way, shape or form you desire.
how’s everyone doin tonight i just broke tumblr
I'm almost disappointed that in all of the Danny Phantom fics I've read I've never seen Danny meeting an immensely powerful god/ghostly being and be all "And where were YOU when Pariah Dark was released from his Sarcophagus"
Bonus points if someone who has no idea what Danny's deal is is watching the confrontation in horror
You know, seeing the cannibalism tag in Danny Phantom fanfics never fails to catch me off guard. No matter how many times I see it.
yo Danny Fenton he was just fourteen
