He really didn’t need to die like that. Also it created canonical inconsistencies and I will rag on this to the day I die.

I’m too tired to post an essay but my girl was just a victim of bad writing and a lack of critical thinking from the audience okay I love her.

During patrol Nightwing found a handmade doll that resembled his hero persona, this wouldn't be so weird if it weren't for the fact that he finds dolls resembling the other members of the batfam's hero personas scattered in odd spots throughout Gotham and Bludhaven. The weirdest thing happens when one night he finds a doll of someone he doesn't recognize. It's a pale teen with white hair and bright green button eyes wearing what looks like a black and white hazmat suit. Nightwing picks it up and the doll immediately bursts into Lazarus green flames. Nightwing finally decided to tell the fam about the dolls not knowing that Phantom, who was sealed in a sarcophagus by treacherous observents several years prior, was now awake. The problem is that the sarcophagus is in the batcave as a trophy, needless to say everyone was surprised when the lid suddenly blew off and out stepped a teenager. Danny is a mix of anger and confusion because this definitely isn't Amity Park

You know. This is almost the exact plot of another, non-dp-related-AU I’ve seen. It’s @/ovegakart doll AU, it’s an AU of Linked Universe, which is itself a LoZ AU where a bunch of Links have come together across time because reasons I won’t get into. In the second ever LoZ game, Adventure of Link, there are these dolls that are scattered across the map. They give you an extra life. So, in ovegakart’s AU, the Link from the first game and AoL(it the same link)finds dolls of himself and the other Links while in his own time. Then, in a well, he finds a doll of a Link none of them have ever seen before. He picks it up and it bursts into flames. I checked, that’s what happened, here is a link to the page. Oh, and Nightwing not telling his family about the dolls until he gets Danny’s? The same thing happened in this AU, where AoL Link doesn’t tell the other Links about the dolls until he comes across the mysterious Link doll. That mystery Link is the First Hero btw, he’s from the Skyward Sword manga.

I would’ve liked it if you, I dunno, credited the idea? Or at least make it not so obvious by changing the doll into something else? Or make it so that Nightwing only finds a Danny doll? Maybe have it melt into ectoplasm even? I have a couple posts already about how I’m a LU fan on here, and if you’ve seen that before, then did you think I didn’t follow ovegakart, one of the biggest LU/LoZ creators? Listen, I’m not mad at you, I’m just confused at your thought process here. This AU idea wasn’t made for dpxdc, it doesn’t even make much sense for it. Yeah yeah, people can do whatever they want, whatever, but at least credit it my god. Or change it up to suit dpxdc more, or both.

How many other people have just taken AU ideas from others and pawned it off as their own, thinking that no one would find out since they’re from another fandom? It makes me feel gross. Please, just credit the idea. If I just posted this with some writing adding onto this, not knowing about this idea coming from another fandom and another person. I think I might need to close my asks for a bit, I don’t feel great, sorry.

The urge to gatekeep Lou from 9-1-1 twitter is so strong. They won’t stop misinterpreting his words to push their own theories. They only started being nice to him when he said stuff about their ship, and it’s pretty clear he’s only saying that stuff because otherwise they’ll go back to hating/he’s responding to paid cameos. In literally the same stuff they think he’s saying Tommy is the stepping stone, he’s also literally trying to get them to put their ship aside and enjoy BuckTommy. Like how is this being missed lmao? His answer about buddie was the same as Oliver’s. That they don’t know. No one knows at this point.

i’m not going to say qsmp is going to shut down but at this point i do genuinely think that shutting down, restructuring and getting everything else sorted, and then doing a full reset for qsmp 2: workers rights edition is maybe like. necessary. at this point

“why would elaena marry a dornishman when they’re nasty evil people who murdered her poor innocent brother daeron”

maybe because once elaena grew up she realized that there were better ways of bringing dorne into the realm than violent conquest, and that daeron got the death he deserved from not just a nobility that is valid for fearing subjugation from valyria but also a smallfolk sick and tired of these people showing up every few decades to set their principality on fire, and put aside any anti dornish sentiments she may or may not have harbored as a child to see the way her family had directly attributed to their suffering, eventually even falling in love with and marrying a dornish man??

also, considering daeron ii attempts a type of proto-reparations act in bringing dorne into the kingdom, it’s not out of the realm of possibility that someone as intelligent as elaena would recognize the inherent racism in the targaryen conquest of dorne and especially considering the very loud anti-dornish, deeply anti intellectual faction in the blackfyre rebellions, realized they wouldn’t be kind or understanding of an intelligent woman like herself and had no interest in herself or her daughters (of which she had four!!) getting shoved back into the maidenvault again?

like, daeron i is on some andrew jackson manifest destiny shit, and if it makes me an asshole for thinking “god i wish someone had merked jackson before he genocided & displaced my ancestors, good on the dornish for realizing you can’t negotiate with imperialists” than i am perfectly comfortable being considered an asshole right next to my girl elaena.

Sometimes it feels like half the c3 fandom fundamentally misunderstands Orym.

Maybe it’s just because I relate to Orym quite a bit in terms of temperament, being a relatively level-headed and good-natured person, especially when around people who are a bit more chaotic.

but like. where are people getting this idea that he’s so focused on revenge that he’s stopped treating his friends like people?! yes, this fight is personal for him and he’s said as much, but stopping Ludinus, Predathos, and the Ruby Vanguard is the right thing to do, and Orym is driven by a sense of responsibility.

With a sense of responsibility comes a certain amount of pragmatism. No, Orym hasn’t gone full Batman paranoia. But when everyone else in your group has admitted to feeling like they could turn on the rest of them at some point—and has proven themselves capable of doing so (if often involuntarily)—a pragmatic, responsible person who is, at his core, a protector might start thinking about what he might do if the worst case scenario comes to pass.

No he’s not perfect, but he’s trying to do what he thinks is right and just because he fumbles or his approach to things conflicts with other people’s doesn’t mean that he has lost his way.

You don’t have to like Orym. But like. At least be fair to him. Give him a bit of grace. Try to understand his perspective a little bit too?

not perfect but this is the closest image to describe how i feel when i read or look at beatles ship content that isn’t mclennon

@pandorxx this seems very consensual to me!

[criticalbeauregard]

loved the scene w gwendolyn but am i the only one who felt like they were rushing laudna through and making it seem like she was taking up too much time when this is her backstory place that she barely has gotten to explore but the 4 guys got to have their long scenes in the city as they pleased..

[uchiha-gaeshi]

I should be doing *literally* anything else. Why am I beefing with some rando ssk shipper?

[mcyt-rarepair-tournament]

can you please tag the ships so people who don't want to see them can have it be filtered out 😭😭

? Kind of an insane ask anon. Both of me and anyone who wants to filter it out. That would require ‘them’ (I.E. you, as you are the only one who has shown a problem with this tournament aside from the Squiddo anon) to meticulously go through every single tag for every single ship to block it out. On top of that, some of the ships genuinely don’t have a universal name I can tag because they’re rarepairs, as well as the fact that we also can have QPRS here. I literally put ‘Mcytshipping’ on every single poll as a universal tag that you can blacklist I ALSO have ‘Mcyt rarepair tournament’ as a tag AND ‘rarepair polls’. You have options, anon.

So next time, instead of coming to my blog and complaining that there are ships, take some initiative for yourself and look for a solution before sending me this ask, on anon no less, or try to word it more politely.

Thanks.

Hey guys before I turned in to bed, I kind of deleted the post regarding what I said about Keith Silverstein as I probably have went too far with what has been said on the Twitter/X post.

Still, as much as I want to raise awareness regarding what’s happening with Palestine, I don’t want to invite unnecessary discourse in my blog.

I apologize for any inconvenience.

The maturity you show considered to a lot of creators within this fandom is mind blowing. You know when it’s time to log off, you know when you’re getting upset and you’re one hundred percent right in stating that those creators are ruining it. We’re here for fics, gifs and thots and not to discuss the hair of a man and berate his appearance. Those creators should be ashamed. Keep doing you. You’re keeping this space safe and it’s why you’re my all time favorite blog. Sending you love, Lila. ❤️

i just don’t understand why people run blogs dedicated to someone and then shit on their appearance and take the piss. like it just does not make any kind of sense to me.

you’re so sweet tho ily nonnie

& psa: i won’t be answering any more asks on the topic. i’ve said what i’ve said.
