Dc x Dp Prompt #6
“I’m a twin”, Damian said one night. He could feel the narrowed eyes of his family drilling holes on his back in disbelief. Not that he could blame them. Damian had never so much as implied being raised with a companion, much less a sibling.
“I had a brother”. Damian paused to recollect himself. He had not said his brother’s name out loud in over 8 years.
“His name was… Danyal”. Damian hated the way his voice wavered, but he could not help it. Danyal was everything to him, his other half. Their heart beat as one and when one heart stopped beating, the other one died with it. At least until his family put his heart on metaphorical life support without ever realizing.
“Where is he now?” His father asked, voice filled with knowing grief and a hint of betrayal. It had in fact been 6 years since Damian first showed up on his doorstep.
“Up there”. All eyes shifted towards the specific star he was pointing to. “Right before he died, he promised me he’d guide me from the stars. Unfortunately, the stars are not visible in Gotham, so my brother is unable to be of much help unless I leave the city.”
“Your brother is Polaris, the North Star?” Tim questioned warily, most likely in attempts to not offend him. Damian was aware of how stupid it sounded, but Danyal had promised, and his brother never broke his promises.
“Yes. Danyal is with the stars now, just as he always wanted”

I don’t mind too much if the Twitter users immigrate to tumblr.
However I will start Biting if tumblr becomes the standard social media site everyone uses.
My employers don’t need to know that I am a clown and this is the circus I frequent. They don’t need to learn about the chainsaws I juggle or the jokes I yell while entering a tiny car with a bunch of other clowns.

Johnny gets ghost a tiktok for the very first time and the first thing he sends him is a video of two butterflies circling each other.
Us <3
Ghost is understandably confused.
?
Those are butterflies.
No that’s us
What?
Like
That’s the concept of us yk
Those butterflies remind me of the both of us
I think I get it.
Soap highly doubts he does, but Ghost proves him wrong the next day, when he sends Johnny a video of two seagulls fighting for a piece of food and texting:
Look, it’s you and Garrick.
Asshole.
It’s not even online too, whenever Ghost and Soap are deployed together or when they’re outside, Ghost will find something that represents the both of them, or the people around them. They’ve turned it into a little game of sorts, actively looking around their environment for things to compare themselves with.
Two uneven rocks leaning against each other. “Look, that’s us.”
The shared mass hall microwave exploding because some recruit thought it was a great idea to place a whole fish in there. “That’s Price.”
A kite getting stuck in a tree. “Me for real.”
Most of all though, they’ll be pointing out things that remind them of themselves. Clouds, cats, plants, any inanimate objects they see that reminds them of themselves, they’ll just point it out. It’s proven to be incredibly adorable, but it also gives Ghost a little more insight on how Johnny looks at the world. He really looks at his environment now, actively seeking out anything that could resemble their relationship. The trees are a little brighter, the sky a prettier shade of blue, the sound of a certain someone’s laughter sweeter than anything else in the world.
It’s no secret that Soap means everything to Ghost. But Ghost doesn’t know if Soap feels the same way. Soap has so many people in his life that love him, appreciate him for who he is and what he stands for. He could bend the whole world to his knees if he wanted to. Ghost has no one except Johnny. And for a while, that thought scared him. But now it feels like he has the whole world, because he has Johnny.
He loves his quirks and how his little mind works. He loves that Johnny thinks about him in his day to day life. Ghost loves Johnny, and Johnny loves Ghost. It’s that simple. He doesn’t know when it all suddenly became so clear, that his feelings had suddenly felt so much lighter, but he knows it’s all because of him.
Johnny, who sends him a TikTok at 3am captioned: it’s you and me!

Eddie tried to look after his sweetheart and took safety precautions seriously whenever they had sex.
And yet, those condoms he had stashed away in every nook and cranny in their shared apartment never got used.
Because every time he took out one, Steve would sniffle, “You don't love me anymore?”
And every time, Eddie would fold like a house of cards, standing no chance against those teary eyes and pouty lips.
Good thing that Eddie had already bought the ring and written his vow.
After all, who was he to deny his girl anything even when it was impossible?
