"Dad" Dan au
(Pov I haven't read Agit yet) ( I don't mind spoilers though)
I don't think we in the dpxdc fandom play with the canon information that Dark Danny is a product of Danny's ghost half fusing with with Plasmius.
Yeah, he's completely down with mass murder and is really sadistic in the episode but that's not as fun to play with in this context.
He's still merged with Vlad and I'd like to have that bleed into him a bit more than the "oh he's so evil," but him being obsessed with his own Mom like Vlad is a level of weird I'm not willing to touch with a fifty foot pole.
I say, let him have Vlad's obsession with making Danny his son. It's hilarious! Imagine being obsessed with making your past self your son! Dan had no qualms with directly trying to murder the past version of his family. But I love the idea of him first seeing his past self in all his awkward half-ghost glory an obsession kicks into gear with a fury!
Dan hating his own parents with a passion because they're uh, well... His parents. And that stops him from being his own parent! It's so stupid. Dan judging every single one their parenting decisions. All while he himself is still morally detestable.
It's great! Still can't decide if he's just stalking the family like a creep. Or he pretended to be redeemed and Danny with Jazz gaslit their parents into believing they have an older sibling ghosts his from them.
Onto the dpxdc part of this!
Now Dan is just looking for the opportunity to whisk Danny away. Jack and Maddie are interfering with his obsession without even trying to! He'll be trying to feed the kid something edible and they'll be ectoplasm samples in the fridge! Ghost hunting equipment in the open when they know it has a tendency to misfire around their son! Dan doesn't care if they really love Danny. There are harpoons pointed at his kid! Those idiots were one misstep away from accidentally killing their child a second time and Dan isn't having it!
Dan yoinks Danny and fucking books it into the ghost zone. Danny clearly wouldn't be happy with this development (betrayal or surprise you choose!) And Dan is trying his best to get Danny to co-operate. Either with specter deflectors or a deal with Desiree. But Danny's stuck with the guy.
I'm taking advantage of the fact that the Dc universe has absolutely obliterated it's multiverse making pretty much impossible for normal ghosts and humans to navigate. Dan flees with Danny to an iteration of the Dc universe and pokes around for a place to settle.
Metropolis's hero was an annoying goodie two shoes and he'd kill this "lex Luthor" the moment he heard the fucker speak. Plus, both rogues and hero's threw cars like baseballs.
Gotham was flooded with crime but their rouges were just people. Their heroes were just people. Crazy people sure, but Dan could kill them if they stepped out of line.
If only the self proclaimed hero's would stop trying to make grabs at his kid.

so season one of the new percy jackson show ended with a post credits scene where instead of sally having agency and freeing herself from her abusive relationship using medusa's head intentionally, gabe just so happens to stumble upon it before anyone else with no mention of it being sold.
wait, sorry, i was thinking of the infamously inaccurate movie, who's reputation in the fandom is so bad that it has been a long running joke to pretend it doesn't exist, a reputation that rick himself has promoted by publicly stating his distain for the movies multiple times, including during the lead up to this show, a reputation he took advantage of to market the show as the perfect adaptation we were waiting for all this time.
what i meant to say is that it ended with a post credits scene where instead of sally having agency and freeing herself from her abusive relationship using medusa's head intentionally, gabe just so happens to stumble upon it before anyone else with no mention of it being sold. wait a minute...

Look I have a lot to say about the way Rhysand treats Nesta but I think he is judged too harshly for what happened UTM. “He let an innocent girl die!” Yes, what did you think he meant when he said he had to do atrocious things to keep himself and his court safe? Things that still give him nightmares, make him sick? He’s shown significant remorse for what he had to do. At no point does he deny that he chose himself and his family over everyone else. Rhys took Claire’s pain away. What was he supposed to do? Give up his 50 year cover, his life and his family to save her? Be real

Why would Diluc recognize your footsteps??
Because he's terrified.
He's memorized so much about you. Your habits and when you need your focus, your tone of voice that tells him when you need his full attention or your putting on airs, the rhythm of your breathing when you're asleep so he knows when to hold your hand during a nightmare
He knows the sounds of your footsteps and the words they tell him are as loud as the beating heart in his chest.
He knows these all so well because every morning when he wakes up, for a split second he thinks you're gone. Terrified and unsteady, it's only when he sees you that he can breathe again.
He knows your footsteps because the sound brings him unbelievable comfort, and reminds him that his heart alive, beating, and is wandering through the halls of the Dawn Winery

also in terms of the bolas playlist it's fascinating to me that the songs added by each person have a slight tendency to represent a consistent aspect of bolas
like
the songs added by slime are their chaos
the songs added by philza are their rebellion
the songs added by cellbit are their rage
the songs added by baghera are their anguish
it's so fucking FASCINATING TO ME but i don't know enough music theory to elaborate lmfao this is Vibes Only
(mouse's songs i can't boil down to an easy noun which is why they aren't mentioned lmao anyway they go hard asf)
(also i went on the longest fucking unhinged elaboration in the tags lmfao i almost didn't have enough tags left to tag "long tags" at the end
(i could have even gone on longer in terms of where their characters were at entering purgatory [philza: cage for a cage; cellbit: fed worker murders; baghera: her past as a federation experiment; slime: turning into a code because of the code pretending to be his daughter] but i ran out of space and also time it's 4AM AAAAA)
