Danny fake guardian angel au

You know how sometimes it’s highlighted how you have to be very careful on what you say in the presence of a spirit because they can twist your words and end up bidding yourself to it?? well uno-reverse-card the spirit also has to be careful on what he says because when Danny had said he owed the dude one for coming to his rescue in a gala Vlad had dragged him to, he didn’t expect that to be taken literally.

danny: wait seriously?? i literally say that all the time!

cw: not after being crowned ghost king, you haven’t

danny: but—but I was also human when I said it. doesn’t that protect me or smth

cw: *shakes his head*

danny:

danny: omg this is a nightmare

cue timmy’s brucequest period (cuz he’s the guy) being so high strung and tired, he just wants some company, which is a so low stakes thing to want the deal Danny unintentionally goes sure we can do that and pulls him towards the guy, despite Timmy never outright saying he wants company. (tim always speaks in the sanctity of his own mind, not out loud)

So. random spirit manifesting. Tim going all who the fuck are u

and Danny panicking and saying your guardian angel

Tim not being impressed while Danny promptly blushes like a moron because that did not come off as he wanted it to.

Yes accidental dead tired where the dynamic goes from Tim trying to shake this probably demon that somehow latched to him being all like ??? dude leave me alone, and Danny being there like bitch i’m trying

to

huh. im actually being protected by a spirit like he said he would. he’s strangely an idiot but also he’s overpowered and just never leaves my side which he says it’s an angel obligation but I think it’s bullshit but also hoping it’s not because it appeals to my crippling fear of abandonment (anyways he really seems to take after those little cartoon angels that poof into your shoulder to keep from me doing wrong decisions) translate into my future boyfriend seems increasingly appalled to what i am up to

meanwhile danny

Bitch you better thank your god I’m dead because otherwise I would already been killed. I did not sign up for a assassins what the fuck I thought you were a normal civilian not a literal superhero and omg that is a fruitloop. no no back off you wrinkly raisin this is my emotional support idiot you can’t have him and what do you mean you’re messing with time whatever this way I can get back to clockwork—

The invisible boy

I think this would be a great text to connect with my students about real-world issues that are present in today’s society. My heart was racing and I was fighting left and right for justice of the Invisible Boy. As each chapter ended I wanted to learn more about how the author would craft the character of the Invisible Boy and how the main character Nadia would react when she found out what was going on. Second grade teacher Eileen ORourke loves using The Invisible Boy by Trudy Ludwig and Patrice Barton to kick-off several fun and engaging class activities. I knew based on the blurb on the back of the book that it would discuss child labor trafficking so I was eager to see how it would turn out since this is such a difficult subject to take on for a younger audience. This was yet again another page-turner for me. Any parent, teacher, or counselor looking for. My Thoughts: I was absolutely enthralled with this one and thought Hollingsworth did a phenomenal job blending this tough issue of child labor trafficking into a middle grade novel. Nobody ever seems to notice him or think to include him in their group, game, or birthday partyuntil, that is, a new kid. The Invisible Boy shows how small acts of kindness can help children feel included and allow them to flourish. Sci fi icon Robby the Robot followed his breakthrough role in Forbidden Planet with a comparative B picture which nonetheless gave him. Child labor trafficking is a tough and difficult subject to discuss, but Alyssa Hollingsworth makes it accessible for middle grade readers. Children with disabilities are just like everyone else. The Invisible Boy is a mix of a mystery and adventure story as Nadia encroaches on a case that is far more complex than she thought. We are sharing this story in honor of DD Awareness Month 2015. One that is going to present her with real-life dangerous situations, situations she’s never experienced before even in comic books. 2013 Print book : Juvenile audience : English : First editionView all. Suddenly, she is in for a real-life adventure. The invisible boy Trudy Ludwig Patrice Barton New York : Alfred A. Ruthlessly humiliated by bullies at school, a teen wishes he had the power to become invisible - and soon discovers that he can do just. She goes house to house in her little private no outlet road, but no one knows of this said boy. Why? He broke her canoe paddle… and for what? She also lives somewhere near an invisible boy who is a superhero because he saved her dog from drowning and then disappeared.īecause of these turn of events, Nadia now acts as if she’s the real Lois Lane because she has no idea where this boy came from. Nobody ever seems to notice him or think to include him in their group, game or birthday party. Her neighbor down the street, known as Paddle Boy, is a super villain. Nadia is not only obsessed with superheroes, but she is a bit obsessed with solving mysteries (especially in her neighborhood) and writing about them.

“… but what if the nightmares come back..?”

“Then I’ll still be here to protect you. Always”

I am once again spreading my Mithcion agenda

the culture is lit, and if this is it, i had a ball

I think one of my favorite things about Charles and Crystal is that daydream fantasy fulfilment of the feeling of having a supportive friend with you, even though other people aren't aware of it.

The scenes in The Case of the Devlin House when Crystal goes to ask Jenny about the Devlin murders and she's feeling nervous and he helps guide her through it.

"Aces, you're doing great."

And then he gives little nods, agreeing with Crystal, even though he knows neither Jenny nor Crystal in that moment will see it. (Possibly just to feel more involved and alive.)

I can't express how much I love this quick setup to exposition scene.

Who doesn't want a secret pretty boy by your side when you're going through a difficult day?

It's something about the Crystal/Charles dynamic vs Edwin/Charles dynamic that I really love.

I’m Not The Sun

—

Y'know, when Kon ‘died’, do you think a grieving Tim could have mistaken Danny for his best friend? Do you think that, in a moment of desperation and exhaustion, he might've kidnapped a floating Danny in an attempt to bring Kon home? And when he realized he kidnapped a random civilian, do you think he still kept Danny for a while as a replacement for Kon?

Do you think Danny got tired of being called 'Conner' after the first week but was too distressed himself to correct Tim? Trying to leave or tell the fellow teen his name was Danny was obviously sending the kid into a spiral. He seemed to think Danny was the dead spirit of his best friend. Maybe if he played along, this Conner guy would show back up?

Hopefully, before Tim completes his cloning research. Danny's been doing everything he can to sabotage the equipment, but even with ghost powers on his side, Tim is a smart person. Every time Danny sets him back one step, Tim takes two steps forward. And since he's well outside of his haunt, Danny is starting to feel weak and ill from lack of ectoplasm. He's running out of time.

Do you think Kon would feel upset that his best friend replaced him?

[aroaceleovaldez]

non-exhaustive list of canon powers Nico di Angelo either has shown or is heavily implied to have:

Shadow-travel

Manipulation of shadows/darkness (also possibly use of shadows as a pocket-dimension a la Magicians using the Duat in The Kane Chronicles)

Becoming intangible/shadows

Complete control over skeletons/bones (dead or alive, including summoning, reanimation, and/or changing shape of them) and being able to sense their presence

Summoning, reanimating, commanding, and dispelling the dead/undead (Skeletons, zombies, ghosts, etc & varieties) and being able to sense their presence

Ability to understand/communicate with the dead/undead and potentially other beings of the Underworld

Inherent complete comprehension of Latin

Ability to perceive the usually unperceivable/possibly look upon a deity’s true form without repercussion (at least moreso than the average demigod, though possibly is restricted to chthonic beings) (ex: Tartarus, potentially also interacting with his parents, etc)

Interacting tangibly with ghosts (implied to be a Ghost King thing rather than a Hades/Pluto thing)

Partial or complete immunity to different effects of the Underworld/things within (can consume food/drink of or in the Underworld without repercussions, effects from the Lethe wear off over time instead of being permanent like usual for mortals, etc)

Astral projection/”Walking in dreams”

Dream manipulation and projection (Sending dreams to others, etc.) (presumably includes sharing/projecting dreams with others) alongside inflicting sleep upon others even from a distance.

Illusions

Manipulation of emotions/aura that inflicts specific emotions on others (ex.: radiating fear/death onto enemies)

Projection of emotions and memories onto others (can be so forceful it causes physical damage like a shockwave)

Geokinesis (all forms but also specifically generating black marble) (presumably also specialized control over precious gemstones & non-paper currency)

Temperature manipulation (seemingly only lowering temperature)/creating frost)

Control/manipulation of souls, including living beings (ex: ripping out Bryce Lawrence’s soul)

Perceiving/reading/judging of souls (most likely also a Ghost King thing over Hades/Pluto thing, but possibly both)

Converting living into dead/undead, aka instakill (ex: disintegrating monsters to bone with one touch)

Lowering or manipulation of own vitals (breathing, heart rate, etc)

Death Trance/pseudo-hibernation (possibly also general control over states of consciousness at least for self, in combo with control over vitals & dreams)

Sensing death (impending or when it occurs, sometimes receiving dreams/visions of it occurring)

Able to sense other children of Hades/Pluto (potentially also other chthonic beings in general/able to identify based on sense alone) and also just living beings in general, such as mortals (possibly via souls).

Improved navigation underground/in the Underworld and ability to traverse restricted or normally unnavigable parts of the Underworld

Enhanced strength/abilities when in the Underworld

Inherently unnaturally quiet (possibly able to silence sound on a designated target)

Hiding/shielding self from being perceived (seemingly related to shadows/silence)
