I worked in a fast food restaurant and there was this orange soda that when you drank it you would slowly start to turn you orange. Also, there was the American anthem (only music) blasting 24/7.

In case you lovelies we were wondering, my daughter had Captain America and Captain Marvel kissing this morning as she was getting ready for school. She happily giggled as she took them in the car and sat them beside each other in the middle seat.
My hubby: "Is that how fanfiction starts? What's that ship name?" *pauses and looks at the dolls again* "Wait, why did I think that Captain America was kissing Thor instead of Captain Marvel?"
Me: "Oh, that ship name is ThunderShield."
Hubby: "..."
Happy Hump Day, lovelies. 😂❤️

DC x DP Prompt *3*
! TW GORE !
The members of the Justice League Dark have seen many things. But nothing was so dangerous and stupid at the same time, as these laws.
Constantin was the first to hear about them. While he was dealing with more supernatural threats than normal over the last two month. After the last five being he banished - who all have screeched about white monsters who stole him -, he couldn't ignore the pattern.
He didn't get an exact answer, to who this him was, but Zatanna and Captain Marvel also heard some rumors.
After some time, they found out about the Ghost Investigation Ward and... if they didn't do something quickly there would be war. And a war with the dead would be a losing war.
Who ever they took seems to be important to the realm, so they could possibly retaliate any moment.
So while Zatanna, Superman, Aquaman and Green Arrow where discussing these laws with the president, the rest of the Justice League would summon the Ghost King to offer negotiations.
All the magicians had felt when the tyrant Pariah Dark had been dethroned. And it had been like there was fresh air for the very first time. The new king was rumored to be kind and fair, but also fiercely protective. So hopefully he would be open to talk.
They even used a form of summoning that was more of an invitation, so that he could choose not to speak to them. It wouldn't be good to further anger the realms or their king.
While they tried to summon the High King of all the realms, the gentle Tug that they sent his way was answered with a desperate hold.
It was hard to hold the spell with the being clawing metaphorically at the line. But after a far to long time the pressure eased and a rift in reality opened.
A body landed with a dull thud in the middle of the summoning circle.
Everyone in the room has seen something horrific, but even someone as stoic as the bat, seemed to be sick.
In the middle of the watchtower laid a boy, maybe sixteen. His right eye was lifeless, despite the fact that he was looking around. The other one was missing and the eyesocket was bleeding sluggishly in green. His white hair had flecks of green in it. The right hand seemed to be broken, but more concerning was his left hand. Half of his pinkie finger was missing, as was the entirety of his middle finger. The rest of his fingers were without nails. And then there was his left foot... only attached by a thin strap of flesh and muscle. But all of that was nothing in comparison with the Y-shaped wound in his torso.
All of it was so distracting that they at first all missed the crown of ice above his head. The realms had screamed at them to get their king back.
As fast as they could the heros rushed the boy king into the medbay. At least Flash was here, so that they could get everything ready asap.
And Danny?
Danny was finally able to close his eye and drift into unconscious without white, orange or teal suits hovering over him.

I can't express enough just how boring my version of Alfred is. Like yeah, he's loud and he wears fun patterns, but he also has a bedtime alarm on his phone and he will leave a party if it goes off. Everything exciting this man has ever done has been against his will.
