#Project: Uppercut

[avayarising]

Deaths of Jason Todd

Part of the Batfam Death Project.

Jason has died five times. There are also a further three times when he might have arguably died. I have not found any instances of Jason visiting the afterlife without being dead.

Total time dead: 6 months, give or take a few days.

Verifiable deaths

1. Killed by the Joker in Ethiopia (Batman 1:427–428, 1988)

As we all know, Jason was killed by the Joker (Batman 1:427–428, 1988).

He went to Heaven (Green Arrow 3:7, 2001).

He woke up in his coffin six months later because something something Superboy Prime (Batman Annual 25, 2006),

and was restored from catatonia by Talia via the Lazarus Pit (also Batman Annual 25).

Time dead: probably around six months, but it’s complicated.

2. Killed by Batman to release him from demonic possession (Trinity 2:15, 2017)

Circe and Ra’s al Ghul worked together to get the Outlaws (Jason, Artemis, and Bizzaro) possessed by demons from the Pandora Pits intent on sacrificing Batman, Wonder Woman, and Superman. Bruce injected a possessed Jason with potassium chloride to kill him, forcing the demon out, then restarted his heart by defibrillation.

(This comic also features Superman and Constantine climbing through a portal to hell in possessed!Jason’s mouth.)

Time dead: a minute or so.

3. Beaten to death by groblins (Dark Nights: Death Metal 7, 2021)

Jason, along with other members of the Batfamily, was overwhelmed by a swarm of ‘groblins’: mindless evil Jokerised Robins invading from the Dark Multiverse, led by the Robin King (an evil child Bruce Robin).

Shortly after that he was raised as a zombie (missing an arm) by Black Lantern Batman to continue the fight.

Jason was restored to proper life when Wonder Woman, powered by the determination of her friends, defeated the evil Batman Who Laughs and persuaded the gods to remake the multiverse as it was before the evil universes invaded the good ones.

Time dead: somewhere from quarter of an hour to an hour? Or perhaps a lot longer, if it took longer to rebuild the world. It’s always a little tricky to be sure when world remakes are involved.

4. Shot in the back by zombie Deadshot (Task Force Z 3–4, 2022)

Jason joined a team of zombies called Task Force Z, an organisation run by Harvey Dent with questionably legitimate government backing and copious quantities of Lazarus resin to bring them back every time they died. He was sent to recruit Deadshot by raising him from the dead. Apparently some fool buried Deadshot’s wrist guns with him, because the first thing Deadshot did on being resurrected was to shoot Jason in the back.

Jason was rushed back to the organisation’s facility but flatlined on the operating table.

He was revived by an injection of Lazarus resin into the brain (or possibly just the outer ear? picture is unclear), administered by one of the staff of the questionably legitimate facility.

Time dead: less than a minute.

5. Killed by the Batman of Zur-En-Arrh (Batman 3:148, 2024)

Batman’s dissociation backup personality, called Zur-En-Arrh, turned evil and downloaded itself into a robot. It fought Batman and Jason jumped in to save him; Zur took him out with a stong uppercut to the jaw, smashing his facemask, and threw him down hard, which broke his neck and killed him.

This was a setup by Bruce and Jason: Jason was wearing a special suit that injected him with Lazarus resin, so he was revived almost instantly, while having killed someone caused Zur-En-Arrh to crash.

Time dead: a few seconds.

Inferrable and arguable deaths

1. Arguably died when Joker takes over the world (Emperor Joker, 2000)

After the Joker stole reality-altering powers from Mxyzptlk and remade the universe to his liking, he placed Jason’s rotting corpse alongside Dick’s and Tim’s for a macabre poker game.

Emperor Joker was published in 2000, well before Jason was revealed to be alive in the Under the Hood storyline, published in 2006 (and later retconned to have been present in the Hush storyline in 2003), and absolutely before any writer had conceived of bringing him back to life. But given that he is supposed to have been shambling around as a zombie and then getting assassin training for a long while before that, taking the retcons into account he ought to have been alive at the time of Emperor Joker.

So while at the time of writing Jason was intended to be continuously dead, after the retcons we have to say that Joker killed Jason again, perhaps even unknowingly, to put him in his poker game.

After Joker was defeated, Mr Mxyzptlk, with Spectre!Hal’s guidance, restored the world to its previous state, which presumably also involved restoring Jason to life again.

Time dead: it’s complicated.

2. Perhaps dies in the confrontation with Bruce involving the Joker (Batman 1:650, 2006)

When he returned to Gotham as the Red Hood, Jason engineered a confrontation between himself, Batman, and the Joker. Batman ended up throwing a batarang which clipped his shoulder. (Jason had previously in this story monologued about how shoulder wounds can kill quickly from blood loss but are easily treated if you’re quick.) Then the Joker shot the explosives Jason had set and the building blew up.

Batman presumably assumes Jason is dead (Jason and Joker were right on top of a large pile of explosives – in fact, it’s pretty amazing even Bruce, who was standing a few feet away, managed to get out). So no-one is around to rescue and treat Jason. But Jason returns later with no explanation of how he survived. Either he’s returned from the dead again or he is supernaturally good at not dying.

Then again, the Joker survived too, so who knows?

Time dead: unknown, if any.

3. Perhaps dies when Dick throws him off a bridge into Gotham River (Batman: Battle for the Cowl 3, 2009)

After Jason nearly killed both Tim and Damian, during the Battle for the Cowl while Bruce was lost in time, Dick confronted him in a battle which ended up on top of a train going over a high bridge. Dick knocked Jason off the train, and they ended up on the bridge with Jason dangling off the edge.

Dick did the whole ‘Take my hand’ thing and Jason said “I’ll be seeing you sooner than you think,” before letting go and dropping into the water from a great height.

This suggests either Jason knows he’s going to come back from the dead or Jason thinks Dick is going to die soon. Dick definitely reacts as if he thinks Jason is dead, and Dick probably has a pretty generous idea of what’s survivable when it comes to heights.

Again, Jason returns later with no explanation.

Time dead: unknown, if any.

XOXO ➳ L. HEESEUNG

➙ synopsis: for as long as you'd known heeseung, who happened to be your best friend's twin brother, he was just that annoying kid who stole your blue highlighter in 4th grade and was a menace to you from that day on, but somehow along the way he stole your heart too.

pairing: lee heeseung x afab!reader

genre: fluff, best friend's brother au

word count: 1.1k

request: " hi! i have a fluff request ^^ . i don’t have a specific situation in mind but imagine reader’s first kiss with hee, she initiates it with a quick kiss but is unsure if hee actually likes her back, so she starts to pull away but then hee cups her face, pulls her back and deepens the kiss without ever breaking it "

warnings: not proofread

a/n: hi anon, tysm for this request, I enjoyed writing this so I hope you and all my other readers enjoy reading it too~ ^_^

a/n (2): just wanted to let everyone know incase you don't, I do have an enhypen series out so please do check it out if you'd like :)

"I swear if your brother touches my hair again, I'm going to uppercut him." you tell your best friend next to you as you comb through your previously ruffled hair.

You had known Heeseung for as long as you'd been friends with your best friends which was equivalently, many... many years.

You loved your best friend but her brother would never leave you alone.

He had his days where he was sweet with you but most of the time you were fighting back the urge to high kick his pretty little face.

"He says ruffling your hair before a game is his good luck charm." you friend says shrugging her shoulders as she munches on her popcorn.

"Yeah well he better find another goodluck charm, he's ruining my good hair days." you defend glaring at the boy who happened to run across the basketball court with his teammates.

You tried so hard to despise him and how smart, funny, considerate and kind he was, but oh how you wanted to so badly run over to Heeseung on the court and just kiss him.

This was someone who didn't necessarily make the best of impressions on you the first time seeing as he stole your blue highlighter in 4th grade, but the bright side was if it wasn't for him, you wouldn't have met your best friend who happened to return the very same highlighter apologising for her 'stupid' twin brother who took it in the first place.

From that day on, you made Heeseung your nemesis, he didn't know he was, so yes, your one sided nemesis, you were a grudge holder.

Heeseung did eventually apologise in which you forgave him but you weren't easy to forget about it either.

Over the years of growing a friendship with your best friend, her brother was seemingly in the picture too.

They were close, but they would also banter and tease each other alot like many other siblings did and you found that dynamic between them special.

Heeseung soon started treating you the same, yes he was sweet to you when he wanted to be but most of the time it was just teasing and being playful and sometimes even the subtle flirting.

Although a year ago everything started changing.

You had had a very romantic and somewhat suggestive dream about him and for days you had tried avoiding Heeseung because you were embarrassed to even think you could possibly think of him in that light.

For years you had only seen him platonically but all of a sudden one dream put everything into a new perspective that just maybe... you had feelings for your best friend's brother.

After avoiding him for almost a week straight, Heeseung obviously thought he did something and so he offered to take you out to lunch as an 'apology' still having no idea he had actually done nothing wrong and it was all just you going through some intrapersonal conflict.

But he had won you over and you were simply left dealing with new feelings for Heeseung you were afraid to admit.

Let alone to your best friend.

"Okay let's start working on this project." Heeseung says as you both walked into his bedroom to work.

It didn't feel all too unfamiliar since you'd been in here before when his sister was around but it felt odd since it would just be the both of you alone this time.

In one of the classes you shared with Heeseung, your professor had assigned everyone a partner for a new project for the semester and Heeseung just happened to be the person you were paired up with leading to this moment. 

You had both been working hand in hand for the past hour and a half now and there was great progress being made.

"How about we take a short break since we've been working for a while now." you say turning to Heeseung next to you who happened to already be looking at you.

"Stop looking at me like that, call me a bug like you always do already." you mumble rolling your eyes as you break away from his staring.

"You're actually really beautiful." he says leaning on the table with one hand as he smiles admiring your facial features.

"Funny, are you getting sick, never heard you compliment me in a minute." you joke with him putting your hand on his forehead but his temperature was normal.

Unexpectedly Heeseung gently pulls your hand away leaning his face closer to yours.

Your heart was beating right out of your chest at the close proximity between you both, was he going to do it.

You notice his gaze go from your eyes to your lips and back as you did the same, both of you seemingly waiting for the other to make the first move.

To both of your suprise, you were the one to initiate the first move pressing your lips together finally kissing him.

But the moment was quick to end as the thought of your best friend catching you both crossed your mind and you hesitantly pulled away.

"We shouldn't-" you start off but you were cut off by Heeseung pulling you back in for a second kiss.

This time he deepened the kiss a gentle hand on your cheek and you felt like this moment wouldn't end.

This time Heeseung pulled away leaving a soft peck on your cheeks and nose and reality hit you once again.

Standing up abruptly you began walking back and forth around the room not believing what you'd just done.

"Oh my gosh, I just kissed my best friend's brother. She's gonna hate me. She'll never want to be friends with me anymore. Why did i kiss you. No I shouldn't like you in the first place." you ramble nervously as you hit your forehead for your reckless decision.

"Wait... you like me back?" he asks scratching the back of his neck as he stood up walking towards you.

You'd forgotten he could hear everything you were saying and you had accidentally confessed your feelings indirectly.

Well there was no trying to hide or run away from it.

But he said 'back', doesn't that mean he likes you too?!

"I do like you but-" you tell him as he stood in front of you holding your hands in his as he stopped you probably sensing what you were going to say.

"My sister probably wouldn't care, you're worried about nothing. What matters is that we both like each other and I think we should go out on our first date." he reassures you as you nod.

"I'd like that."

Context- Southbound is an **artificial** speculative evolution project centering primarily around the speculative biology and evolution of machines, often with a focus on aircraft. Unless specifically stated otherwise, instalments take place somewhere on the surface of the tidally-locked planet, Xoturanseria (Anser).

Specific Context-

Manananggal

(Eviscercauda kaha)

Included in instalment:

Manananggal is a small crested chirothopter found both on the night side and terminator of Ictinaetus. It carries a fearsome reputation of being a baby-eater, preying both on young children as well as pregnant individuals. The legs sport a particularly gnarly wrist spur which the machine uses to eviscerate prey and predators alike.

The elongated tail coverts, typical of crested chirothopters, glisten like a trail of spilt entrails as the machine walks and flies. These coverts are often used in threat displays, their coppery barbs catching nearby light and reflecting it back at a supposed opponent.

Similarly to Ekek and Wakwak, the forelimbs of Manananggal do not shift to the aft of the body in adulthood, giving it the illusion of walking on its "hands".

Manananggal has a habit of using its ovipositor as the proboscis of a mosquito. The ovipositor is inserted as an auger into a vein to find a major artery to siphon blood from.

Not included in instalment:

A surefire way to prevent Manananggal attacks is to keep your area well-lit at all times, preferably with LED bulbs. Keep flashlights on hand as well. Anything that can flashbang a Manananggal that gets too close is good to have on hand, as they are incredibly sensitive to light.

If trapped with a Manananggal, one can punch the bridge of its nose to deter it. Uppercutting the lower jaw is also an option. Beware the claw! Manananggal may charge and attempt to eviscerate you using the claw if it feels threatened.

Gladiator Orion AU drabble!

Ratchet is soundwaves adopted sire and drift his carrier in this AU!

Ratchet trudged into the living quarters he shared with his foundling, Soundwave, weariness seeping into his servos. The long day on the Senate floor followed by a short night shift in Dead End had drained every ounce of energy from him. The faint, unmistakable hum of conversation and the roar of a muffled crowd blared through the walls, immediately setting his optics to narrow.

He stormed into the common area, ready to reprimand Soundwave for staying up late. Instead, he stopped in his tracks, aghast.

There was Soundwave, sprawled on the couch with his usually stiff demeanor replaced by a relaxed, loose posture. Beside him sat Megatron, all polished armor and navy blue accents, a stark contrast to his current behavior, desperately throwing his servos around. His plating reflected the dull glow of the holo-screen in the room, where Shockwave—a gladiator mech from kaon who's color scheme was white, blue, and green—was delivering a brutal uppercut to an unfortunate opponent in the pits.

"Hello~, senator!” Megatron’s youthful face was flushed with energon as he mimicked Shockwave’s fighting stance. He chuckled loudly, taking another gulp of high-grade from a tall energon cube. The innocent optimism of the young mech Ratchet was familiar with was replaced by something a little too loose and inebriated for his comfort.

“WHAT in the name of Primus is going on here?!” Ratchet bellowed, his optics blazing. His audials caught the faint clink of empty high-grade cubes falling to the floor.

Soundwave, in his usual monotone voice despite the obvious buzz in his system, leaned forward and lazily declared, “Statement: Frag.”

Ratchet’s jaw slackened. “Frag?! Frag?! That’s all you’ve got to say for yourself? Drinking high-grade, watching pit fights, and getting trashed the night before Megatron’s first day as head archivist?!”

Megatron, still slouched on the couch but attempting to sit upright, gave Ratchet a sheepish smile. “I assure you, Senator Ratchet, I’ll be ready for my new role. This—uh—team-building exercise was merely to build camaraderie!” He gestured vaguely to Soundwave, who seemed less invested in defending their actions and more invested in finishing the high-grade.

“Camaraderie?! You’re plastered, you oversized protoform!” Ratchet pinched the bridge of his nasal ridge. “Primus give me strength—both of you, sober up. Right now! Megatron, Alpha Trion is going to have my helm if you show up to your promotion ceremony slurring your words!”

Soundwave tilted his helm, the faintest hint of humor flickering through his otherwise blank purple optics. “Observation: Megatron is lightweight.”

“I am NOT!” Megatron protested indignantly, puffing his chest plates out before promptly swaying and grabbing the arm of the couch for balance.

Ratchet threw his servos in the air. “That’s it. I’m rethinking all my life decisions. Both of you, offline this nonsense, clean up this mess, and for the love of Primus, stop watching Shockwave bash other gladiators’ heads in! He’s not a role model!”

Soundwave and Megatron exchanged amused glances before reluctantly shutting off the screen, leaving the room in silence save for Ratchet’s grumbles as he stomped out.

As soon as he was gone, Megatron smirked. “So, uh, Soundwave... one more round?”

“Statement: Bad idea.” Soundwave paused, then added, “But acceptable

Title: Gaomon Day (2025)

Original Upload Date: April 23, 2025

I know I'm months late, but Happy Gaomon Day, everyone! 🥊🐶

This was way more extensive than I made it out to be, but for the blue doggo, it was worth it! Did a collage of sorts: from ideas that never manifested, to callbacks to projects I've done with him!

====

Ideas/callbacks, from left to right:

The Ichigo kick: the one frame with, from Bleach, Ichigo starting a fight with 5 guys by kicking the leader in the face! I told my friend it'd be hilarious to see Gaomon like this!

Max Gao: My Gaomon's "human disguise," totally inspired by Max Goof from A Goofy Movie!

Sad Gaomon: the one frame of Shoutmon, from Xros Wars, crying over the amount of books he'd need to read to become king.

Noodles: the one frame of Gumdramon, from Xros Hunters, eating noodles with Tagiru

Spirit Gun: based off Yusuke's famous Spirit Gun attack, from Yu Yu Hakusho, a series I finished recently

Knight Mode: a DigiXros I made for Gaomon, back in my Xros Wars days

Rising Uppercut: a more, improved "Rolling Upper" attack for my Gaomon

Same VA: did you know Gaomon and Angoramon have the same voice actor in Japanese? Kazuya Nakai voices both boys!

Gear Switch: I thought it'd be cute for my Gaomon and Toshi to switch outfits, with some silly results! Ft. @Chocowan_Gaomon

This semester my assignment was to design and animate a 2D character rig from scratch! So I present. the one and only: Juniper Uppercut!!

Beloved Baby of CPUK fame, I just really wanted to see this lil goober move! More design details under the cut...

Despite already having a design I already really liked, I played around with the specific style. I even realized I liked having her buns up top, which will now be a permanent change to her design!

Then was the time for the turnaround! We were only going to animate one view, but this semester was also about learning the process of creating a rig from scratch and as something you can pass off to someone else to work on professionally. Junie was fairly simple to spin around, given her mostly symmetrical shape. She would also need extra drawings for hand and facial replacements, to give her more complex motion.

The next step was to Plan through annotating! While I was being taught, this was still my first time ever doing this, so some specifics either never happened or had to be reworked as I was building.

Finally, I built out the rig! Each part of Juniper's body was drawn on a separate layer, organized into larger groups, then all brought together under lots and lots of pegs. My favorite part was trying to organize the absolute spaghetti pile that was my node view into this less spaghetti-like view. I learned a rudimentary amount about cutters in order to mask parts of the body into each other. Replacements were organized and added, giving her even more fun expressions. All that was left was to animate!

I'm so happy I was able to bring my silly girl to life! Who knows if I'll be able to use this rig in any other projects, but I really wanted Junie to be the character that I could work with more. The whole process was so fun and informative. Did You Guys Know I Like Animation? Thanks for reading through my silly process, and remember: BABY FIGHT BABY WIN!!!

”I’ll never amount to anything”

Do you also ask yourself this question? Do we share the same insecurity that, despite everything, there is a chance we will become nothing eventually? That we will die in about 60 years, get remembered for some people for other 50 and then, vanish, like we were never even here on the first place.

So, we study, we train, we work hard everyday to create something larger than life, on a desperate attempt to cheat the boundaries of time and remain in this hopeless world long past our expiration dates. We don’t contempt ourselves with any title lesser than legend. We constantly discard projects and ideas we like for something that will please the general public. We don’t live our dreams to fulfill the need to be something more. And then, it hits you, like an uppercut on the stomach of your soul, a feeling completely uninvited, but completely expected, that maybe, regardless of our efforts, desires or individuality, we may never achieve this level of greatness. Thoughts like “How can I possibly be like those people on history books?”, “There is no way I’m going to leave something important behind!”

I’ll never amount to anything.”

And yet, we persevere. We work until our bones break and our mind shatters. We write and paint and film and sculpt beautiful artworks, or, at least, beautiful on our heads. We sell our soul to the chance, as slight as it may be, that someday, people will look at our names, engraved on stone and memory, and will say feel something. Maybe, just maybe,

I will amount to anything I want to

“hey guys! welcome back to my channel! as you all know, johnny and i decided to take a little vacation in between some of his big projects. that doesn’t mean that you miss out on all the action though so here’s a quick little get ready with me in this rehab facility he checked us into!” you poke your tongue out and shoot a peace sign to the camera before turning it around and showing the beautiful scenery of the monk academy.

“y/n! check this shit out!” johnny wails, he began showing his improved skills by throwing punches at a wooden dummy and with an uppercut, knocked the head a good 5 yards away. 

you whistle and track the trajectory of the dummy head with your phone. you’d managed to ration out your battery life despite filming and posting an abundance of johnny’s new life of martial arts. 

johnny runs over after to see the video for himself and as you play it back for him, he notices someone looking on with great disdain. 

“kenshi, man! I’m telling you, if you wanna piece, all ya gotta do is ask.” he makes a show of it by flexing his arms and posing as if he was back on the red carpet. 

kenshi rolls his eyes and lets out a puff of air, “i dont want anything you have to offer, john.” he crossed his arms and turns his attention toward the other guys that lui kang recruited to be the power rangers of earthrealm. 

you learned that kung lao and raiden were their names. you had to stop johnny from getting himself cancelled as he tried to make references to Godzilla when the men clearly were not of that origin. but they were cool people, you’d have to make a mukbang with them one day for sure. you paused, realizing you were no better in terms of geography.

“oh really? not even sentō?” speaking of being an antagonistic asshole, johnny removed the sword from his back and waved it around, trying to perform swift and severe moves as a ninja would. he made it a goal to make the sounds as well. 

you just stood at the ready, phone already recording and the sound picking up the popping of bubblegum in the background. a week in and you traded in your black flats and pantsuit for the same training attire that the guys were wearing. you were by no means throwing any punches, but you’d be damned if you didn’t match for aesthetic purposes.

kenshi stopped in his tracks, “oh i think you done did it now, johnny baby…” you twirl a curl of hair between your fingers, lowkey focused more on the rippling muscles and raging testosterone that put itself on display for you.

“now, now. if there is gonna be a brawl of any sorts, its going to be the one that decides who our champion of earthrealm will be.” 

“ahhh, the all-knowing, all-powerful always has such perfect timing,” you coo. “what’s hopping kangaroo?” 

“ah, i’ve been managing the behind the scenes of the competition. making sure all is in order for whomever our champion will be.” he smiles genuinely before bowing before you out of kindness. you would be rude to not return it.

“which is totally going to be me.” kung lao says affirmatively before throwing his makeshift razor-hat. it passes just over your head before getting imbedding in the side of a building.

“watch were you throw that thing! you kill my assistant, you replace her!” johnny pokes at his shoulder.

“nice to know that you value and care for her…” raiden chips in. 

“word.” was all you said in agreement.

“right…” lui kang claps his hands together, looking over the lively bunch in front of him. part of you wonders if he was beginning to regret his choice in heroes.

“as I was saying, today is the day. whoever comes out victorious in the matches will be earthrealm’s champion and will go on to battle against outworld warriors to defend the title. we will start with johnny and kenshi.”

“y/n, watch me beat his ass real quick.” 

“best 2 out of 3?” you say as you join lui kang on the sidelines. he simply nods.

“round 1… fight!” you say before banging the gong.

“beat his ass, johnny! wooooo!” you jump and cheer from the sidelines. 

“finish me johnny cage~” a robotic voice chimed from your phone. the sideline goes silent before you mutter a quick “oops” to check what the fuck just happened. 

you’re accidentally livestreaming. the voice being someone who donated. well, gotta get paid someway. you turned the phone back on the action, watching as donors flooded the chat, saying how sexy johnny looked when he was fighting and the whole nine yards.

“chat thinks you’re so cool right now. don’t disappoint!”

and how could he? with a swift uppercut, kenshi called it quits for the first round while he regained his balance and strength. 

“you’re not done yet johnathan carlton!” you call. he runs over as you take a gatorade bottle and squeeze the contents into his mouth and a little bit on your hands before smacking the shit out of him. “you get out there and you finish it!” he nods without a word before bumping your fist. when he turns to get back in the ring, you deliver a swift slap to his ass for encouragement.

“does that actually help?” raiden comments. he wouldn’t lie, he was tickled by the nonchalant relationship you and Johnny exhibited.

“nah. he just has a really nice ass.” you say, body language unwavering.

it definitely wasn’t helping. he was getting his shit handed to him this round. so much so, he tagged you in.

“whyyyyy am I here! i’m so quitting after this!” you scream as you block many of kenshi’s attacks. johnny, who claims he is just taking a breather, now acted as cameraman as he and the chat giggled at your attempts to evade kenshi.

lui kang had a smirk on his face as he watched the growing potential in you. Despite your obvious fear, you were evading kenshi’s offensive moves quite diligently. He eventually spoke with the goal to guide you.

“compose yourself, y/n. you’re bouncing all over the place, use that momentum for something else.”

you were desperately running out of air from running around the ring, but you couldn’t let up or else kenshi would deploy his frustrations about johnny on you (mmmmm). despite your fear, you heard lui kang’s voice and man, does this god have a voice of reason. you had to obey. so you placed your trust in it and stopped before quickly ducking.

 In doing so, you felt a gust of wind fly over your head, surely a devastating blow from kenshi. you then turned and blindly threw a punch. surprisingly, you made contact, square in the middle of his chest. he gasped for air as the assault caused it all to exit his lungs and drop to his knees. he looked up at you with a fire burning in his eyes. you did not wait to continue and tagged johnny back in.

“now who’s the kangaroo?” lui kang smiled.

“you must think you’re so funny.” you respond, completely stale-faced.

johnny ended up losing the second round, before recovering and winning the final round. quickly though, he was thrust into battle with kung lao where he lost. 

“a brawl between old pals,” you start. “how you feeling kung fu panda?” you put the camera directly up to his eyebrows on a 0.5x setting, getting an insane shot of his forehead.

“first, you’re no better than johnny,” you gasp. “second, i’m feeling really confident.” he finishes. 

“and you ray ray?” you proceed to give him the same media coverage.

“i’ve been waiting for this day for a while.”

“oh he’s so gonna beat your ass”

and you should’ve bet money on it too as raiden came out victorious. 

“so these outworlders, they hot? mutated? what exactly should we be expecting God-Almighty?” johnny asks but not without you delivering a swift elbow to his side for his crudeness. 

“outworlders do have an enhanced strength compared to humans. some also have powers like me.” lui kang demonstrated with his possession of fire.

“so what’s raiden got that can go up against people like you.” kenshi spoke up, finally seeming over the bitterness of his loss earlier. 

“i am always prepared. raiden, i bestow upon you the element of lightning. i ensure that it will aid you tenaciously. i am certain earthrealm will remain in good hands with you.” He hands the amulet over and raiden immediately demonstrated his new abilities by electrocuting the shit out of some training dummies. 

“ok one, he just literally roasted the fuck outta y’all and two, can he charge my phone with this new ability.” 

“can you be serious for one moment?” kenshi grumbled.

“oh im sorry, i thought someone who’s ass i kicked earlier had something to say?” you retort.

he was ready to respond again, but lui kang redirected the conversation.

“it is time. we must depart. outworld is expecting us.” he begins to move his hands in the same circular motion as before and another portal beings to open up.

“y/n! y/n! Look!” johnny points as if he was kid asking his parent capture his performance.

“i got it johnny, damn! it’s not like this isn’t my whole ass job.” you roll you eyes as you break your slowly dying phone out again. before entering the portal, lui kang turned to you,

“i trust that you won’t be getting yourself in trouble?” he raised an eyebrow, his playful demeanor replaced with a serious one.

“don’t worry kangaroo, i’ll be doing the PR work for both johnny and i. count on me to clean up any mess these boys make. it’s all in the job description.”

his face screwed up in thought before he nodded.

“Let us show these outworlders what we are made of.” he led first through the portal.

Summary:

Von Kaiser, aside from boxing, is also very apt in the art of language. It's a like a match made in heaven; Being in the WVBA, you're met with all kinds of people from all over the world. That brings us to today. What was supposed to be a relatively normal day for Kaiser, ends up with him translating for a new WVBA member, along with a good friend of his from the minor circuit. What he doesn't know, however, is that both know more about him than they let on...

THE LONG AWAITED SEQUEL TO KAISER'S TRANSLATOR ESCAPADES !!! Thanks sm to my beta readers @yourlocaltrashpandaxoxo and @atypical-artisan for their feedback and pointers !! much appreciated :]

"FINISH HIM"

Send in "FINISH HIM" to witness my muse delivering a brutal finishing blow.

____

♫

The clash had only gone on for a mere thirteen minutes, so far. In that time, a series of explosive shockwaves erupted from the fury of their blows. Brilliant, blinding lights followed when they fired at range, from the barrel of an artillery weapon or projected outwardly by one who wielded the very currency of physics, in their control over energy.

The two stood across from one another. Rex was huffing, in spite of the stance he kept up. His opponent-- a robot built to kill high-end superhumans: the Dynamech, made no such motions to indicate faltering. An impacted servo-motor or hydraulics perhaps, if the combat continued. But as long as the fighting computer saw an acceptable percentage for potential victory, it would not lay down. Nor deactivate its adaptive circuit, which let it mimic meta-capabilities. And certainly not its secret weapon: The Chronoton Cannon, a precision particle device whose tachyon utilization meant targets could be hoisted through the timestream. Disoriented, lost, and once they were in the Dynamech's sights, fired upon with a thin beam. Accompanied by a solid railgun round.

The weapon activated. Rex was launched into a marketplace sometime during the Qing Dynasty. After multiplying the magnification on its scope three times in rapid succession, the shot fired. It connected with the cosmic contender, who could only estimate as to the damage dodging the blast would have been in this crowded area.

Another temporal flash, and they were in Tunguska just before the historic explosion that would cause a 3-30 megaton blast, theorized to have been a meteor impact. But Rex and his foe had no time for research. Another shot connected, to Rex's agony, even though he tried to actually dodge this time. The only solace being that the superhuman-slayer was not the cause of history, as when they departed the original explosion occurred as normal.

Through the swamps of Pangaea and smash-skidding across a couple of now-damaged buildings in Victorian London, the two continued their life-or-death struggle against each other. Until Rex got free of the Dynamech's grappling grip, snaking around to catch it by the shoulders, and activating his hyper-vision. Twin lasers searing into the back of a reinforced titanium cranium!

Then, an uppercut straight up into orbit. Followed by Rex accelerating after the Dynamech, putting his hands together for an axe-handle blow, and slamming his enemy into a patch of desert. Only some kinetic control that was part of his aura, sort of like the inertial dampener aboard sophisticated starships prevented the impact crater from being as vast as it could have been-- enough to cause some catastrophic damage to the planet.

"--Wait. No. It's priming to fire again?!"

With his hyper-vision zooming in telescopically, Rex could see that the Dynamech's Chronoton Cannon was still operational. He dived forward. Racing down as he was scorched by re-entry speeds. Leaving a trail of sonic booms in his wake as he went faster and faster, each thunderclap in the air indicative of his harrowed sprint. Eventually putting his foot down where the CPU was located within the chassis. A whimper of an ending compared to the bombastic collisions mere moments ago.

"Hhh... Hhh..."

He stood there for a moment. Waiting and watching to see if the Dynamech had some kind of back-up functionality. Sometimes it did. It always varied: Whenever one appeared it meant someone had found the secretive blueprints that often traded hands. To the lucky owner, a new doomsday device that if assembled effectively, could lay low even the proudest, most powerful a world had to offer.

At last. Rex did away with the remains. And started on his way out from there...

Pastor Tino - Father Coco Crush of the Arm Crystal Mirror Rosary Chain

A Capcom Darkstalkers & Street Fighter Universe Character

Backstory & Origins

Pastor Tino, once a feared enforcer of the Sombra de la Fé cartel, was known as Coco Crush, a street legend whose fists could shatter bones like glass. Born of Scottish and Mexican heritage, his bloodline traces back to an ancient noble house of saintly warriors, their lineage blessed with divine sight and an unshakable resolve. He was a ruthless fighter in his youth, feared for his brutal "Ally Boxing Martial Crush Throne Style," a discipline mixing old-world knighthood combat with brutal street brawling.

Tino’s past was drenched in violence, but after an encounter with the celestial warrior Ingrid, he saw a vision of his future—a path to redemption. Abandoning his cartel ties, he entered the priesthood, founding a church in one of Metro City’s most dangerous districts. He now fights not for blood, but to protect the lost souls of the world, guiding those on the brink back toward salvation.

However, his past still lingers. He remains friends with Cody Travers, a fellow reformed fighter, and at times fights with prison cuffs and chains as a reminder of his past sins. Despite his holy purpose, he carries the weapons of his past—a Grande Launcher Pump Gun Ooze Mirror Obsidian Arm Gun Cannon, a relic of cartel warfare reforged into a tool of divine judgment.

Tino’s fighting style integrates his spiritual discipline, channeling the celestial forces through his movements. Every strike is a prayer, every blow a hymn of redemption or condemnation.

Fighting Style: Ally Boxing Martial Crush Throne Style

A hybrid of close-quarters combat, celestial energy manipulation, and projectile techniques. Tino specializes in charged thrusts that elevate him mid-air, channeling divine energy into explosive impacts that distort space itself. His finishing moves incorporate sacred chants that invoke holy power, manifesting as radiant blasts or gravity-defying strikes.

Signature Techniques & Special Moves

Santi Lux Gratis (Holy Light Freeing Strike) – A forward lunging fist infused with a pulse of divine energy, knocking opponents back and temporarily stunning them.

Mihi Crux de Gloria (Cross of Glory) – A counterattack where Tino absorbs the kinetic energy of an enemy strike and redirects it as a piercing holy cross blast.

Aqua Benedicta (Blessed Water Smite) – A sweeping kick followed by a vertical blast of purified energy, dealing bonus damage to dark or corrupted foes.

Dio’s Euceristro (Sacred Eucharist Blow) – A rapid three-hit combo finishing with an uppercut that leaves behind a lingering energy after-image, striking foes again moments later.

Manos de Secrado (Hands of the Sacred) – A short-range grab that lifts the opponent mid-air, followed by a double palm strike infused with holy light.

Flash Beam Requiem Cannon – Tino gathers celestial energy into a charged needle-thin beam, firing at precise points to break through defenses or finish combos.

Afterimage Familiar Projection – Summons a glowing, angelic silhouette that mimics his last three moves for 5 seconds, confusing enemies and setting up devastating follow-ups.

Super Moves (Ultra Combos in SF/ Darkstalkers Equivalent)

Crush Throne Ascension – Tino launches a powerful uppercut while ascending into the sky, absorbing dark energy mid-air and releasing a devastating divine explosion upon impact.

The Martyr’s Crown – With chains wrapped around his fists, Tino delivers a bone-shattering 10-hit combo, ending in a dual-fisted hammer strike that sends shockwaves across the battlefield.

Judgment Hymn: Requiem of the Saint – Chanting a sacred prayer, Tino harnesses divine refractive energy, creating a luminous battlefield where time distorts, forcing opponents into slow-motion as he delivers a final crushing blow.

Role in Capcom Lore & Connection to Ingrid

Tino’s connection to Ingrid goes beyond mere mentorship—he believes she is an agent of divine will, a being meant to test humanity’s strength and faith. Ingrid, intrigued by Tino’s past and transformation, considers him a rare mortal worthy of celestial power. She bestows upon him the Crux Solaris, an artifact allowing him to access a fraction of divine cosmic energy.

His presence in Darkstalkers makes him a bridge between humans and supernatural beings, fighting against demons and corrupted souls while also defending the streets from earthly threats. In Street Fighter, he often clashes with fighters who test his strength, including Ryu, Cody, and Akuma, though his battles with the latter border on theological warfare.

Character Personality & Aesthetic

Appearance: Tall and chiseled with a saintly yet intimidating aura. His eyes glow faintly with celestial energy, betraying his noble heritage.

Clothing: Wears a long black clergy coat over his bare, muscular torso. His chains and cuffs remain on his wrists, remnants of his past life. His belt is adorned with a crystal mirror rosary chain, symbolizing his faith.

Weaponry: Though a martial artist, he still wields the Grande Launcher Pump Gun Ooze Mirror Obsidian Arm Gun Cannon, a weapon of intricate craftsmanship reflecting light and darkness alike.

Final Thoughts

Pastor Tino is a deeply layered character, representing themes of redemption, power, and faith. As a mentor figure in Capcom lore, he bridges Darkstalkers, Street Fighter, and Final Fight, while bringing a unique Crush Throne martial arts style infused with divine energy.

Would you like me to generate concept art for him in a Capcom Darkstalkers & Street Fighter aesthetic?

*Suddenly Clover gets slammed into the ground in a blink of the eye thrown up and uppercutted into the sky. Chara appears in the sky and hits clover down to the ground making a crater, Clover Struggling to get up*

*Along with a green flash of light Clover is sent flying through multiple trees*

*Chara slams Clover's head into a rock with green flashes each time, clearly healing him so he doesn't die*

*Pummeling Clover in the face*

*Slamming clover in every direction before throwing him up again and Body slamming him into the ground making a massive crater, Clover is crawling as Chara just stares at him, Clover's form is reduced to just a soul though it's clear he's still alive Red Chains come out of the ground and lock Clover's Soul in place*

(Think of it like steven universe gems, the body was just a projection of his magic)

*frisk just watches, shocked and semi-scared*

a little shinjiham thing i did, i like to hc that kotone was a bit of a trouble kid in grade school! also basically me wishing we could defend junpei in either route at that One scene behind the port island station </3 writing piece under the cut + ao3 crossposting (warning for in depth descriptions of violence)

Kotone had a feeling this wouldn’t go as any of them had planned. Sure, she trusted Yukari, and sure, she didn’t want to sit around and wait for clues to fall into their laps either — but this was a bit reckless, even for her. She didn’t want to drag Junpei into this, and she didn’t want Yukari to get hurt; she was sure she could handle herself, but that was a lot harder to do when there were others to look after, she’d learned.

But even so, here they were, standing in some alleyway in the backstreets of Tatsumi Port Island, and before Kotone could think of a plan or even warn Yukari, the girl was already charging headfirst into the fray.

Kotone really did like Yukari, she respected her and admired her strength without doubts — but she had to admit, this was a very, very poor decision of hers. She froze as she watched the other girl begin to antagonize the punk-ish looking boys, going as far as to call them trash. Yep, definitely didn’t think this through.

The dread only sunk deeper in Kotone’s stomach as the two boys began to encircle their group, and before she could even blink, the ‘head honcho’s’ fist had driven into Junpei’s gut.

In that moment, it was like time had stopped: she wouldn’t say she’s overprotective, because her reaction is only natural in this situation, really. She sees one of the few friends she has get hurt, and she loses it.

It’s like she’s seeing through tunnel vision, and without another word, she charges past Yukari to confront the guy that seemed oh so sure of his control over the situation — she would just have to shake that belief a little, wouldn’t she?

As he retracts his hand from the now doubled over Junpei, the guy spots Kotone approaching, giving a smug snort at her silent fury, not even knowing what kind of wrath he’d invoked.

“Got something to say, girlie—?”

And that’s just about all he manages to get out before her fist connects with his jaw, a resounding crack echoing through the alley, soon followed by the quiet gasps of the guy’s friend and the two girls that had been making snarky comments the entirety of the encounter. Still, Kotone didn't stop there, she knew there was a statement that had to be made here.

Fuck with her, or worse, her friends, and you get obliterated, simple as that.

Without skipping a beat, she kicks his knee to the point of his leg giving out, a strained yelp escaping his lips from the pain of the attack. She wants to go further, to stomp his brains into the pavement, but his friend has already grabbed a fistful of her hair, yanking her off of the scumbag as she gives a furious hiss.

She tears at his hand that refuses to let go, and she almost feels a bit of fear that the group of lameasses might get the upper hand, but by chance, someone else happens to step in as well.

A boy around her age with messy brown hair and a fierce scowl of his own yanks the second guy back and away from Kotone, and while she’s given the chance to recover, this newcomer uppercuts his opponent; she’s sure she saw a piece of a tooth fly out from the hit…

Kotone stares in slight awe for just a moment, and even if this newcomer looks a bit worse for wear, she had to admit she was impressed. Still, she couldn’t let her guard down too long, and she quickly turns just in time to see the first punk struggling back to his feet.

“You little bitch, do you even know who I am–?!” He hisses, wiping blood from the teeth-marked gash in his bottom lip as he manages to balance himself, and yet, his smart-ass comment only gives her enough time to act first once again. With a quick hook of her right foot, she sends him crashing down onto his back for a second time, and she follows up with a merciless kick to the gut that produces a satisfying groan from her opponent.

Kotone’s almost tempted to give him another kick, but she figures it’s best not to sink to his level in her mind’s eye — so with that, she spits onto the pavement beside his curled up body and finally clocks back into the world around her.

Yukari’s helped Junpei up off the ground, the first averting her eyes from Kotone, and the latter staring at her in a mix of fear and awe; on the other end, the mystery guy has rendered the other attacker unconscious with a bloody nose, and the vulture-like girls hanging by the scene just snicker under their breath before finally heading off, leaving their ‘friends’ in the dust. So far? She’d call the situation handled.

“W–Woah, Shiomi-chan! You made that guy eat dirt!” Junpei spoke up as Kotone took a second to pin her hair back up in its usual ponytail, a shaky laugh falling from his lips. “I mean, seriously, I didn’t know you had it in you!”

At that, Kotone just rolled her eyes, brushing off his praise with a shrug of her shoulders. “I guess you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover then, eh, Iori?”

“Especially not when you can’t even handle yourself in a place like this,” the guy with messy hair suddenly interjects, his tone harsh in comparison to her own, making Junpei flinch. “Seriously, what were you doing coming to a place like this when you can hardly hold your own, aside from this one over here?”

Kotone pouts a bit at the way he jabs his thumb dismissively in her direction, but before she can defend her friends, Yukari gives a defeated sigh.

“Look, I… yeah, I know that wasn’t the smartest approach, but we heard we could find out about Fuuka Yamagishi if we came here, and—!” She cuts herself off with another shake of her head, and now Kotone recognizes the look on Yukari’s face: guilt.

The guy just keeps glowering for a moment, and Kotone almost thinks he’s about to make another jab at them altogether, but then he proves her wrong. With a heavy exhale, he rubs the back of his neck, dropping his gaze to the floor.

“I’ve seen Yamagishi at the hospital; she’s well and fine, physically at least. You probably caught wind of some of the girls that like to hang around here from Gekkoukan… apparently they’ve been picking on her real bad and it caused her to take leave from school a bit,” He pauses, finally glancing back up with those perpetually tired eyes. “That good enough for you?”

The three students blink a few times, clearly surprised by the off-putting guy’s sudden straightforwardness, but Kotone had to admit, they’d gotten what they came for.

“Th–Thanks, yeah, that’s really helpful,” Yukari gives a slow nod, and she awkwardly turns, Junpei still supported on her shoulder. “We’ll get out of your hair then, thank you again…!”

Kotone almost follows after the two instinctively, but stops as she glances back at the stranger, an imaginary lightbulb going off over her head. “Oh, wait — how can we even properly say thank you without getting your name?”

She can practically feel Yukari and Junpei staring holes into the back of her head, silently begging her to not antagonize the scary-looking guy anymore, but just like she does when she sees the warning signs, she rushes right through anyway!

“Mine’s Kotone Shiomi, thanks a lot for helping out back there, we were in a real tricky situation!” Kotone introduces herself with her usual blindingly bright smile, almost as if she hadn’t just kicked a guy’s ass a couple minutes ago, and holds her hand out for him to shake.

She holds this same position for a couple more seconds as he scrutinizes her, before finally, he gives a low chuckle and a quick, firm handshake. “Tricky’s one way to put it — I’m Shinjiro Aragaki, and no need to thank me. Those two had it coming to ‘em.”

Kotone feels a rush of triumph at getting Shinjiro to crack a smile, even if it was a snarky one, but her mind instead feels the need to focus on the odd sense of deja vu she feels along with it. Why did she feel like she’s heard that name and dry laughter before?

It looks like Shinjiro’s blindsided by something similar, and the two share a puzzled look before with quiet ‘ahem’ from Yukari, they realize they’re still shaking hands. He quickly retracts his hand averts his gaze, and Kotone can only put hers back in her jacket pocket and snicker at the guilty expression on his face — like holding hands with a girl was illegal or something!

“Well, I’ll see you around then, Aragaki!” Kotone waves goodbye with her other hand, still smiling like always, though now her face feels a bit warmer as he gives a quick nod in return.

“Yep, seeya,” And with that, Shinjiro turns on his heel, quickly skulking back to the shadows from whence he came. As Kotone catches up with Yukari and Junpei, she doesn’t miss the roll of her eyes that the other girl gives her.

I was listening to GUTS by Olivia Rodrigo, and I realized, IT IS AN INSANELY TCT ALBUM

- All-American Bitch: Telling me this doesn’t give Adam Hayes vibes?

Bad Idea Right?- This is the College Tapes summed up in one song.

Vampire- very much how Adam feels about the breakup, especially the lines: I used to think I was smart / But you made me look so naïve

Ballad of a Homeschooled Girl: if you discount the second verse, another Adam song. I mean: The party’s done / and I’m no fun / I know I know. Also: each day that I’m alive / it’s social suicide. NO IM NOT PROJECTING BC IM AN INTROVERTED DEPRESSED SOCIALLY ANXIOUS NERD WHAAAAAT?

Caleb vibes. I have no explanation and I’m not sorry.

Adam vibes once more. I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO TELL YOU OLIVA RODRIGO IS THE VOICE OF ADAM HAYES! Alex Gallner who?

I wanna key his car / I wanna make him lunch / wanna break his heart / and stitch it right back up / wanna kiss his face / with an uppercut

THATS THE ENTIRETY OF THE COLLEGE TAPES!

Explanation unneeded.

Look, the VIBES!

I am aware I didn’t include some songs, but like… DO YOU GET WHAT I MEAN?!?
