I'm working on replying to things, all my threads are old so if I reply to something and you're not feeling it anymore that's totally fine. If you could let me know just so I'm not wondering, that'd be great. If you wanna write something else let me know that too, but you don't have to.

"Could always ask the Crown Prince for a passport... token. Whatever Pandora called them, hear he loves pissing off the Observants." There was a slight glint in his eyes as he made the suggestion, like he was making a joke. He might as well be, giving John the suggestion that he asked the Crown Prince for a passport when that was who he was talking to? Hilarious. Tucker would be doubled over if he was here.

"I hear he's been trying to get a message to The Justice League but the GIW's been blocking him, might be willing to help you out if you help him." Honestly it wasn't a terrible idea, he could probably go looking for Damian. But then what would his brother do if he saw him after thinking he was dead for so long? Definitly better to avoid that fight with the GIW poking their nose into his business.

Habit. Yeah, Constantine knew a thing or two about that. His own aside ( even now, he wasn't interested in dwelling on those, or the way that they followed him like the acrid scent of smoke used to cling to his clothes after a cigarette ), he had seen enough to say that what had been repetition in life became ritual after death. Of course, sometimes those customs proved beneficial to him where a case might be concerned. Did it ever really benefit the undead? Maybe Constantine didn't want an answer to that.

However, the short exhale that escaped him was more akin to real laugh as Danny continued. ' Allergic to fun. ' He was no longer certain whether such an indictment was accurate or not, though he wasn't compelled to actively defend himself against it either way. "Try me again on a day that hasn't been utter shit." Maintaining a watchful eye on affiliates of the Justice League ( to be counted among them still amused Constantine for some reason ) was, objectively, a smart thing to do; the kid wasn't stupid.

His eyebrows rose slightly at the next descriptor. "Might've heard something like that said about me before." Or many times. "You know the saying ' ask forgiveness, not permission ' that's always getting thrown around? Turns out that it kinda rubs people the wrong way you don't ask for either." A shrug followed. "When time's a factor, I'm not about to waste it on getting a damn permit. And I'm not gonna say sorry afterwards because I'm not." A hint of a grin flickered along his lips. "Anyway, apologizing for something you know you're gonna do again is what most would call disingenuous."

Danny understood what she meant by that, even if not entirely. He was starting to get the same feeling with The Realms but his connection to it was still new and more like a faint echo because he was young and it was an inherited or earned connection, not automatic the way it was with a city spirit.

"GIW wears bright white suits, Fentons are always in an orange and a teal jumpsuit, all of them are louder than they need to be." he resisted the urge to pull away from the hand she reached out, it being more of an instinct because having just met her then thinking she was going to hurt him.

He relaxed once she made contact though, feeling the adoration as his core lightly pulsing with power for a moment at the connection to the spirit whose city his paternal ancestors had called home for so many generations. Like his familial connection to The Realm via The Pit's it felt natural, like Gotham had been waiting for him to turn up the same way The Realm had welcomed him when the portal had turned on.

"I'm definitely more willing to hear requests than Pariah was." He was careful not to make any promises without knowing what it was, keeping his tone light.

"I see everything." She replied, growing a little again, matching the height of a nearby mausoleum as her voice began to resonate more. "Where there is shadow, I can see and become. I am every cobblestone, every gargoyle, every tainted drop of water in the caves. I am every piece of gravel on rooftops and driveways and every stray root in the parks that don't belong to dear Ivy."

Someone is threatening her child and King? They will regret that.

"No one crosses my boarders without my knowing. Tell me what they look like and the feel of their energy, I will keep watch and poke my protectors about it too."

She shrunk back down, human sized once again, a shadowy clawed hand reaching out to her baby to gently hold his cheek as a shadowy face melted into parental adoration.

"Your human half is of Me. I would have protected you even if you weren't King or even Halfa. As long as people call me Home, as long as their families are here, I will do what I can to protect them." She fell silent for a few moments, letting the weight of her promise sink in before speaking again. "If I may ask a favour of my own, My King?"

this started out as rendering practice (love myself a good shrinkwrapped reflective suit) but it turned into “how many photo compression/degradation mimicking effects can i put on this guy before he becomes unrecognizeable” and the answer is A LOT

OFFICIAL LOW ACTIVITY ANNOUNCMENT

I know I haven't really been that active lately anyway, but PSA that I'll probably be even more so for a while. Visiting Noodle this weekend and then I'm scheduled for my first day at my second job on Tuesday after I come back, then I'll just get busier as the tax season goes on so my extra brain power will probably be pretty low till mid April.

Honestly if there is one or two things you REALLY want me to reply to best bet is just send me a link one at a time if you see I'm online and I'll just reply in that moment if I have a bit of free time. Anything I don't reply to I'll just add to my tracker.

My Discord username is kaylathebitch31 (same as my blog name here), just let me know who you are if you add me and there are a few of you who can feel free to ask for my number if you want if you're in the USA (if you're on my 'I play favorites' list you're free to ask and it won't be weird I promise lol but I'm sure there are a few other's I'd be fine with to, that list def isn't as extensive as it could be.)

[demcntwins]

[demcntwins]

I want more long threads with Damian outside of his family, someone either like this for me to send you ideas if I get any or just straight up message me with ideas

[demcntwins]

I just tested something using 2 of my blogs, and I think everyone needs to be aware that blocking anon hate does not mean that the person can no longer interact with you; it simply means that they can no longer send you anons.

[demcntwins]

PSA that if I find out this was you I will make it my life's mission to ruin yours :D

to the person trying to weaponize my phobia in my inbox right now, are you very proud of yourself?

|| OPEN || Damian & ??? ||

This is marked as open but I prefer if you only reply if your character knows that he is Robin

Damian blinked a bit rapidly, feeling like the blood was rushing to his head and dizzy for a moment before he got a feeling of familiarity and relief. A feeling of completeness before his vision went black, a ringing in his ears covering any sound. A voice that sounded like him, but the tone different enough to be noticeable spoke. "Dami I need help, it's Danny. Akhi saeidni."

Damian drew in a sharp breath and blinked and suddenly his vision was back, but he noticed the strange look he was getting. "What? Why are you looking at me like that?"

[demcntwins]

|| OPEN TO BATFAM || Damian & ??? ||

Open based on this wishlist post

Damian froze as he got out of the elevator into the bat cave, finally looking up from what he was doing on his phone. He was looking up information on a case Batman and Robin were currently working on, he had been planning on using the batcomputer for more work. Instead now he was looking at a large image of what he knew was a photo of himself edited with blue eyes, but all he could see was what Aidan might have looked like if he was still alive.

"What are you doing!?" There was a clear hint of rage in his voice and he ignored when they tried to make explanations, frisbee throwing his phone at the image so they would have to worry about that and turning back into the elevator. He slammed the button for an emergency lift to make sure that it close before they could get to him and got to the top faster than it normally would, storming out and telling Alfred he was going to the barn when he asked what was wrong.

When he got there he grabbed one of the spare swords he kept in the loft and went to find a tree to take his feelings out on. They didn't know and he knew that, it was his own fault to. But that didn't mean that seeing that image hadn't hurt in a way he didn't think something like that would.

|| OPENISH || Danny & ??? ||

labeled as 'openish' because he portaled himself into Wayne Manor so like, obvi the person has to be in Wayne Manor to reply.

Danny knew that he didn't have long before they were back, Jack and Maddie were convinced that he was possessed - that some ghost had taken over their son's body. He was already exhausted from his capture, but he worked quickly anyway as he wiggled his hand around until he felt the tell tale pop of his thumb dislocating, pulling his hand free from the restrains and then grabbing one of the tools from the table next to him and freeing the rest of his limbs.

He felt a wave of panic as he heard them coming back down the stairs in the middle of a hushed argument, shifting to his ghost form now that he was free of the ghost restraints. He looked around and realized that the ghost shield was definitely up, looking down at his hands as he wondered it he would be able to control his portals well enough to actually get out. He didn't have much time to think though, hand shooting forward to open one and diving through as soon as they were at the bottom of the stairs and started yelling.

It took a lot of power though, and it closed almost as soon as he was through. His transformation faded back to his human form as he stumbled forward and caught himself against a wall, whipping around a little to fast and getting a wave of dizziness as he heard someone behind him.

[demcntwins]

|| OPENISH || Damian & ??? ||

the ish is bc it's open to Batfam & Friends

Damian had told Alfred he was headed out to the barn, he didn't have any plans until patrol. He had checked on batcow though and she had been sleeping in the field, and so instead he redirected himself toward the Family Cemetery on another part of the grounds. Once there he made his war to a far corner of the Cemetery with older headstone, stopping and crouching down in front of one and brushing the stone clean with his hand.

"Marhaban 'akhi." He said as he crouched, looking down at the flat stone with an engraving of Canis Major and Minor on it. He considered the potted plant that sat next to it, trying for a moment to decide if replacing the dark purple flowers with blue ones would draw to much attention. His train of thought however was interrupted as he realized he was being watched, standing up and turning around in a moment as he pulled out a knife he'd had hidden on him. "Show yourself."

[demcntwins]

|| OPEN || King Phantom & ??? ||

Realistically Danny knew that summoning The Ghost King was a thing that people might do, he'd been warned about it by Pandora and Clockwork. They had told him that refusing a summoning was something that he would be able to do eventually, but that currently he was still to young and untrained and likely wouldn't be able to. Unlike them. That was how he ended up in this situation, appearing out of a summoning circle glowing with magical energy.

His form had instinctively changed to look more like his king form, or as much as it could handle in the human wold. Really that was just his cloak appearing on his shoulders over top of his jumpsuit, and what could only be described as an echo of his crown appearing over top of his head. Finally his eyes landed on the person who had summoned him and he rolled his eyes slightly.

"What do you want? I have a test to study for." History was surprisingly hard when you learned from private tutors your first 8 years only to be thrust into the American public education system and having to relearn the watered down version.

[demcntwins]

Danny shrugged slightly and lowered his hand when he didn't take the handshake offered, leaning back on his heels as he spoke. "I mean, he used to be. I think coming here looking for a fight, though, is just a habit at this point." He also tended to show up to cause trouble for him when he and Ember fought, the same way Johnny had gotten into the habit of when he and Kitty fought. He wasn't sure if they were jealous they weren't getting their attention or just trying to make it into a date night activity.

"I was taking creative liberty to be dramatic, it's like you're allergic to fun." He stayed on the ground this time when his eyes rolled at the comment about his title, leaning back on his heels instead. The flying in a circle around him had seemed to irritate him a bit. "I try to keep tabs on The Justice League and the people they interact with, especially when they make a habit of interacting with creatures from death worlds as often as you do."

Not that it explained why he cared about someone interacting with death worlds, and honestly he'd only learned more about the guy after he was told he'd become King. He figured he was more likely to have to interact with magic users, league-affiliated or not, after that officially happened. "Also, Pandora seems to think you're 'a menace to the natural order of The Infinite Realms' - her words, not mine. Something about you going in and out of death worlds without the proper permits and getting away with it because Clockwork thinks it's funny when you piss off the observants."

with Danny ( @demcntwins ) ▌continued from here.

A sardonic huff almost resembling a laugh left Constantine's lips at the boy's reply. ' I wouldn’t really say Skulker is an enemy, more like annoying. ' With a lift of his eyebrows, he said, "Think you need to look up the definition of enemy in the fucking dictionary, kid." Although the sudden sudden shift to floating upside down thing bordered on jarring, he had witnessed far stranger. Nevertheless, if nothing else, the sheer nonchalance of it suggested Constantine's wariness of a second attack was probably unfounded.

Nah, now he just had a flying teenager to contend with. Hell of a way to cap off the night. The sudden move to circle around him sent his left hand digging into his pocket for his pack of nicotine gum. Why the fuck did he ever give up smoking? Even as the question flickered through Constantine's mind, memories of a bleak hospital room and Lucifer attempting to drag him to hell snuffed it out again. Right, that's why. Popping one of the little rectangles from its foil packet and into his mouth, he kept watch on the ghostly figure from the corner of his gaze.

The cryptic response to his query only left him with more questions than answers. Dying went against this kid's genetics? What kind of genes were they talking about? The suddenness of hearing his own name, however, distracted Constantine from the thought. "Not really." A beat before he continued, his voice inscrutably deadpan, "My card says occult expert, but if you want to call me extraordinary, that's your prerogative."

Who was this boy, really? He eyed the hand extended to him. While Constantine wasn't a stranger to his name preceding him ( for better or for worse ), this instance only added to his currently growing list of queries. "But it's not like I put my face on a bench for advertising. So Danny Phantom, ghost wonder — how'd you match me with the name?"
