Viejo:
Catherine and Betty recently uncovered the secret to a happier, more fulfilling life: staying away from men. The two had been tempted by a nearby farmer but decided he was too far gone and then set their sights to each other. Now they're making the most of what time they have left while the Martin boys are distracted by their numerous pixels.
McGreggor:
Formerly touted as a rural Casanova, Leod's green thumb has started to bloom in ways he's never expected. He still keeps the idea of finding someone on his mind, but it's starting to get overgrown by weeds and he hasn't found a strong enough weed-killer.
Greenman:
Having sprouted two boys after Daisy, Rose decided to go all-in and embrace human culture by opting to grow the first-documented sim-plantsim hybrid. Jason had been keeping close observation of everything…that is until he went and got himself abducted. The greenhouse is about to become a bit more chaotic but the pair wouldn't have it any other way.
Roth:
Stella's restlessness has subsided due to her having to play PR as to why Morty has gotten more round in the mid-section once again. At first, she had forgiven his little extraterrestrial tryst but things have been rocky since he went and did it again. How in the middle will she be able to stave away the "perfect little family" ideal with aliens running amuck in the mansion?
Wan:
Patricia's given up on Gabe and, apparently, at a good time since he went off and got married to an artist from nearby Desiderata Valley. She and Cleo have recently started throwing around some innocent flirting but there is some hope that it won't be so innocent for too long.
O'Mackey:
Jules would never admit it but she'll kind of miss having Patricia around to scowl at - her father's new wife does seem a bit more even-tempered, though, and she is more than okay with the house always smelling like fresh grilled cheese sandwiches.
Ottomas:
Despite having never truly seeing things from eye to eye, Samantha does miss having her mother-in-law around. Ever since she passed and her oldest moving out, things in the Ottomas house have seemed emptier - but that's nothing another set of baby feet won't fill!
Ramaswami:
Riverblossom Hills has brought nothing but happiness for Sanjay and Priya! They're both excelling in the respective careers and raising their daughters right - what could possibly go wrong? Oh, yeah, there is the rumor that Sanjay has started sleeping around with one of Priya's co-workers, but they'll burn that bridge if and when they get to it.

im being so fucking for real and i need you guys to boost and reblog this
you nonblack selfshippers have got to stop using "simp." you have to. its african american vernacular english (aave) which in colloquial terms means its not for you to use. in a space already hostile towards shippers of color, youre just making it more inhospitable to black selfshippers by appropriating our language.
say youre crushing. say youre obsessed. say youre head over heels, say youre a sucker, say youre infatuated, just stop saying simp. for the love of god
{nonblack shippers [even other shippers of color] i do NOT want to hear your opinion on this post or hear about how you "didnt know" or are "changing it right now." just be an ally and LISTEN instead of needing to add your piece.}
Tim Drake comes across a LOA manuscript detailing the sacrifice of a Demon Heir that’s dated around the time Damian is born and brings it to the cave. There’s no other mention of what went down, but it looks like Damian was a twin and the twin was thrown into the Lazaras Pits- Tim kind of forgets about it but shows it to Damian cause he figures that the guy deserves to know, and leaves it out for Bruce to see (basically the same thing as telling him). It doesn’t really change much but there is an obscured name in the corner so they can presume that the kid’s name would have been something starting with D A N.
Well here’s the thing: Names carry power. Damian reaches out to John Constantine to ensure that the child is actually dead, because presumably John can do that. John wants to give the kid some closure, so he does what is supposed to be a super chill seance to an infant. He pricks Robin’s finger, chants a little and the air... turns violent.
Uh oh. Dan appears, unshackled from his prison in the Infinite Realms now that John has called upon them by someone with Familial blood. He cackles madly about the fact that it’ll be a good time to bring about the apocalypse again, promising to spare the bird for now, since he would have to get answers later.
The alarms are blaring, the whole JL is hands on deck to try and stop Dan as he attacks across the globe. They’re saving as many civilian lives as possible but its getting very HAIRY in less than 2 hrs. Robin is out in the chaos, trying to track him down with John and Zatanna trying to recapture him and banish him back to the realms.
Phantom touches down just as the three of them reach Dan- Danny has some choice words for his older alternate timeline self, including “This is why you have no friends.” and “Seriously, you didn’t even stop to say hi to my timeline’s Jazz this time.” and “Soup time for 1,000 years and then we can talk remediation.”
After a short but brutal fight, Danny floats over to Damian, John and Z. After making sure they’re all right he’s like “Maybe you can never do that again? Also tell me how and why you did that so I can banish that spell?” And Damian explains that it was meant to ensure that the infant twin he never knew had passed peacefully and clearly that was not the case. Danny blinks a few times, uh, a twin?
Damian goes through the shit, John explains that it was a familial summoning meant to be an advanced seance (hence the lack of safe guards to keep the entity in) and Z confirms that there was nothing special to it beyond that.
Danny then explains, that uh, “I guess my parents weren’t kidding when they told me I was adopted. Hi? I’m your brother. Uh, I go by Danny though. Dan was me in a different timeline and he’s normally under super strict lockdown.”
“This 98-year-old woman has had a total of 622 ‘descendants’…because at age 16 she married a 50-year-old widower with 10 children, SOME OF WHOM WERE OLDER THAN HER AND HAD THEIR OWN KIDS ALREADY, and then had 13 more children by him, but news outlets report on it like a cute human interest story”
sounds like an SNL skit where the “straight man” character gets increasingly disturbed while everyone else acts happy and charmed
Bruce Wayne runs into a ghost boy in Gotham. He does what he does best and immediately starts investigating, as best as he can without the suit and without raising suspicion about the Wayne family. Ergo, Brucie Wayne tries to keep the conversation flowing without making it seem like an interrogation. Which is.. granted it's a little hard explain why some rich guy is invested in the afterlife of a ghost. But there's hope that it could be swept under the rug as billionaire eccenticities. And the teen definitely isn't suspicious he's Batman.
Danny is suspicious about why this rich bastard is interested in him. Why another rich bastard is interested in him. But all the man's questions seemed more or less harmless. Until Danny let slip how he protected his town and the man asked who he was working with. Apparently the answer he was looking for was more "adult hero mentoring you" and less "more teenagers." He was.. not happy
Queue the line "You're not my dad."
And.. suddenly Bruce thinks he might be in some very familiar trouble. He swears he never goes out of his way looking for this. But his other kids are going to have a thing or two to say anyway
Or, Danny's suspicions turn into a self-fulfilling prophecy and Batman's adoption instincts kick in. The Brucie Wayne persona is just a hair too disarming. They both have regrets
Self-fulfilling prophecies are a bitch
I really just wanted the line "You're not my dad" and that just being.. an immediate trigger phrase. Bruce is instantly just like "Wanna bet?"
two new additions to both Riverblossom Hills - with Sharon and her daughter - and Desiderata Valley - with David Ottomas
Wirth:
Things were getting a bit too cramped in the Bell house for Sharon, so she uprooted herself and her daughter to Riverblossom Hills. Now that she's a prent, is she looking to tone down the romance or light an entirely new flame?
Ottomas:
Look out, world - David Ottomas is here and he's out to make a name for himself. He's never cared if he's famous or infamous, as long as others know his name.

not related to noco at all but what is katie and sadie’s relationship like now?
pretty good all things considered! while they're both married to two sweet guys and have separate families (none of their kids are other td characters, unfortunately...) they're still really close, and still live next to each other at that same beach town they grew up in, now both running that successful 80s themed ice cream business they've been dreaming of! its safe to say they probably suffered the least on Total Drama, only leaving with a couple of minor scars, good god were they lucky..
An anecdote from the next door neighbor at Forthlin Road:
"Quite frankly, if Paul's mother had been alive, there would have been no Beatles as far as Paul was concerned. She'd never have stood for that row. The lady was a real stickler, very much a You-do-as-I-say kind of person. She was the dominant factor next door - there was no nonsense with Mrs. McCartney. She'd never have allowed it, all that argy-bargy. Jim offered to buy her a washing machine once, but she wouldn't have one because she thought it was somehow immoral. So you can imagine what she'd have thought to that row."
