When Youngblood became a ghost he actually didn't think he would be so lonely. It was stressful and annoying, being so young, watching the years go by but never being able to move on or change. He was a child who died, and the only way for him to feel like a child again was to play.
But even then he felt invisible. That made his powers listen to his wishes and cause no adult to see him. And maybe that was for the better, adults were scary, adults could hurt you. They wouldn't understand.
Meeting the other ghosts was both a blessing and a curse. Everyone saw him as a kid, some thought he was annoying and others played with him. He was grateful to Ember for spending so much of her time being a pirate, but he didn't want to take up so much of her time. It made him feel guilty.
When Danny became King and the ghost kid heard that he was destined to help the other ghosts, Youngblood plucked up his courage and asked him for a favor: Find him a friend. One alive that wanted to play and never get bored of it.
Danny took the task very seriously, looking for all possible candidates, avoiding ghosts. Until he found a more or less suitable friend: Klarion. He was older than Youngblood but seemed to be just as bored. Clockwork looked at him in dismay at his solution to the problem but didn't stop him.
This led to the Justice League being defeated by Klarion, who had taken over the Watchtower and seemed to be happily talking to air. He was seconds away from destroying the earth or something similar with death ray, but there was nothing they could do about it.
Everyone froze when a portal opened next to the boy and someone came out asking "How are the new friends?" Before realizing the situation, the creature sighed in disappointment and destroyed the death ray with a snap of his fingers. A girl just like him came out of the portal excited ignoring everyone and began to talk to the air. Klarion seemed to be following the conversation.
Danny watched Youngblood talking to Dani and Klarion, he knew that his cousin could be good company, but he hadn't contacted her before due to her travels and status as a halfa (the probability of destroying the world was there too); well, now Youngblood had two friends (that solved the problem) but- how did he prevent them from ending the world? Or worse, from terrorize innocent cosplayers?
Kate, handing Yelena a bracelet: the stakeout was a bust so i made us these friendship bracelets til Clint sent me home
Yelena: friendship bracelets? what are you, a child?
Kate, reaching for the bracelet: oh ok if you don’t want it-
Yelena, putting it on her wrist: no its mine im keeping it
I don’t care if they have mental issues, I don’t care if they aren’t okay, stalking is NOT GOOD!
I will not be worrying about somebody’s mental problems when they are doing heinous things!
The stalker who I’m referring to has blocked me as I have blocked them, but if they somehow find this:
You make me feel ill. Not only did I consider you a friend but I thought you’d at least try to improve! Sob stories will NOT make what you did any less bad. I’m aware you held yourself accountable, but you have to know what you did was wrong.
If somebody shares this with the person, I don’t CARE! I’m sick of all this bullshit people do! You’re stalking someone? You’re harassing them? Oh, you feel BAD about it? You’re stating how much you regret it? Then fucking DO something! Stop fucking harassing them! Block them and move on! You have no excuse to invade someone’s privacy the way you did!
Sorry for the rant, I’m just pissed off about the whole incident.
If there’s something I can’t stand its people who use their issues as a shield.
I’m sorry if I said something perceived as wrong, I’m not good at writing this stuff out.
Oh, and the stalker I was talking about was G_G. If you are aware of what she did and support her you are PART OF THE PROBLEM.
I just need to read a modern au about Gale getting into a custody battle with Mystra for their kids with Astarion as his lawyer, meticulously trying to explain to him that, yes, he was abused, and no, it was not his fault.
Bonus points if the kids are twins names Mystryl "Minnie" and Karsus lmao
Darling being mad at Makkaro being like:
Darling: (sweet voice) Makkaro! Dinner is ready!
Makkaro: did you... did you make any for me?
Darling: (still sweet voice) no, but it's your favourite!
Something Jetty and I do, that helps reframe the situation (and also often makes the adult laugh) when you see a baby or toddler wailing in public, is just go, "oh girl, same"
