Kelly + Jack + water + taking control of the narrative

Kelly + the pool of self-reflection

KELLY: "He said he was thrilled. He said it was the only time he ever created anything."

When Kelly is calling her friend about her pregnancy, she's by the swimming pool, with the sound of water gently playing in the background.

She will be linked to water again:

when she tries to escape her fate in the bathtub

when Castiel glimpses her in The Future by the side of the ocean (script only)

and again when she lives in the house by the lake with Castiel

there are multiple "sea" and "chaoskampf" paintings hanging in said lakehouse

THREE fisherman + stormy sea paintings appear in the nursery Kelly is painting in 12x23

Indeed, the portal to another universe opens up just in front of the lake, symbolizing transition and revelation. (In particular, it will be Mary's revelation of what would have happened had she not made her demon deal.)

But what's the big deal with water?

For starters, it's an inversion of Sam, whose nursery was enveloped in the motif of fire. (Jack's nursery is notably not enveloped in fire; he only gets this motif when Dean's room is shown burning in his AU earth torture as he listens to the screams of Sam and Dean, his earth fathers.)

The pool itself is the physical embodiment and reference to the very beginning of Earth, primordial chaos, before mankind existed.

In Supernatural with its highly Biblical motifs, bodies of water can also be tied to new beginnings and resurrection. We see it with Cas and the Leviathan (when Cas walks into the lake to die, Baptism-like).

Water can also be a tremendous uncontrollable force that takes over your life, as with Dean and AU Michael. In symbology, drowning is a specific warning of doom, representing your helplessness, overwhelming emotions, or the impending death of a loved one.

The number 5:

Here, Jack is associated to room 5, the fifth element Aether: According to ancient and medieval science, aether, also known as the fifth element or quintessence, is the material that fills the region of the universe beyond the terrestrial sphere. Jack is an unstoppable life force, and Kelly's (unfairly) caught in the middle of it.

The broken mirror?

Here's an interesting shot. When Sam is exorcising Lucifer, a mirror breaks (it's above the chest of drawers and between Dean and Kelly). The common reading would be to attribute this to bad luck and offending the gods. Another SPN-common thing is to try to one-to-one link to characters. But the interpretation I think I like the most with regards to mirrors is the breaking OF Chuck's control and the beginning of Jack's usurpation. (Kelly Kline means, "war, small.")

Indeed, one wonders if Jack is already at work, protecting himself from his position in the womb. He's throwing off the narrative and making things go wrong. They're too easily able to defeat Lucifer, and after this, all the "heroes" he came into contact with start failing left and right.

Sam and Dean are incarcerated

Because of that, at least one of the Winchesters is symbolically defeated by Billie the reaper/future Death

Cas loses Kelly, and he can't hunt or find the boys

Rowena's magic won't work

and even Crowley comes up null

The only one everything's going "right" for? Kelly Kline. Jack is working to ensure he's born.

Later, we'll see Jack choose Cas as Father (and Cas's truck breaks down + Dean immediately gets to work to fix it) and in choosing Cas, Jack (symbolically) takes Dean at the same time, narratively reflected by stealing control of Baby.

Drake Siblings

Have I read this prompt somewhere or was this a fever dream from my bored mind.

What if, now hear me out.

What if we bring up Dana Winters-Drake (whose confirmed to at least be alive in the DC verse but no one knows where she actually is)

What if instead of when she had a mental breakdown and getting committed to an Bludhaven clinc she wandered away before anyone noticed and by the time Tim or anyone did notice a lot of stuff started happening at once in both Gotham and Bludhaven (Steph dying, The Bludhaven crisis, etc etc)

Tim still tries to find her though but even with best resources it was like she just disappeared into the wilderness and the stress of trying to handle more and more problems get worse.

So when out of the blue, a couple of years later, he gets a call from an unknown number. On his private, only for friends and family, phone and when he answers he meet with a young girls voice on the other end.

A very young, maybe six or seven, girl who informs him about his apparently half-brother Danny Drake-Fenton. And how she loves Danny so, so, so much but knows her home is dangerous for him to be in.

Tim is stunned and before he could question her, she says Danny is Dana and Jack's baby and that her parents had adopted him years ago and put Dana's stuff that the hospital had away for him to look at when he was older but she just had to fight off their lunch from eating her brother and she knows he needs a better place to live and so she snooped around and found Dana's diary and that she had to unscramble the nonsense Dana wrote and found Tim's number with the words 'tell him about his brother Danny' hidden in it. And-

But before she could keep rambling she hears Danny screaming "JAZZY THE MILK WENT BAD AGAIN AND HISSED AT ME!"

Tim is left with silence after hearing Jazz yell to Danny to lock the fridge and step out of the kitchen as she gets the bat.

A lil birthday gift from me to me 🥳

[bet-on-me-13]

All Ancients are Halfa's

So! The reason everyone in the Realms believes that Danny is a super old Ancient and not a Ghost Baby is because all the Halfa's that exist currently are Ancients.

The Reason? For a Halfa to be born, they must have died as a God.

Pandora is a Halfa. She was the Goddess of the Amazon's before she was killed by Ares.

Frostbite is a Halfa. He was the God of a Yeti Tribe, before their kind died to Climate Change.

Dorathea and Aragon are Halfa's. They were both Draconic Gods who ruled over a small Country before dying to a roaming band of Magical Adventurerers.

Undergrowth is a Halfa. He was a Druidic Plant God killed after bis forest was destroyed by a Fire.

Even Clockwork is a Halfa. He used to be known as the God Kronos.

But that leads to the question of, How Danny is a Halfa? He was just a normal Human when he died, not Divine in any way, or so he thought. So how did he become a Halfa?

Well, maybe he should start looking into who his Birth Parents were...

Dc x Dp Prompt #5

Demon Twin AU only Damian never had a blood son phase and has “biological siblings” (how absurd):

Damian would like to start by saying he is not at fault for this… miscommunication. Truly, how was he to know sharing the same blood as Jasmine and Danyal would make them “siblings”? Not once has anyone mentioned such absurd claims. He has never and will never treat either of the two the way he would Richard or any of his other siblings, but apparently sharing the same donors when being created automatically makes people siblings.

Worse, father is upset at him and mother for “hiding away” two of his “children” from him. Richard and Thomas will not stop staring at him. Todd, Brown, and Drake will not stop laughing. Cassandra has not stopped looking at his body language since this whole encounter started. Alfred is giving him his patented disappointed face he oh so hates but what is he to do?

Damian was not hiding anything or anyone. Jasmine and Danyal have not nor will they ever be his siblings. They are the children of Jack and Maddie Fenton just as Richard and the rest of them are Bruce’s children. Blood has nothing to do with family. They are at best “god-siblings” or “cousins” if father refuses to believe they are simply childhood companions.

There is barely a hint of emotion as father purses his lips while his siblings continue looking on at him in disbelief. Damian is not understanding why they are having trouble comprehending such simple logic. It is common sense to know that siblings are the children at least one of your parents have raised other than yourself. Parents are the people who raise you. Talia raised him therefore she is his mother. He lives with Bruce who is now raising him and therefore he is his father.

Neither Talia nor Bruce raised Jasmine or Danyal, therefore they are not siblings. It is merely coincidence that he shared blood with both Bruce and Talia. After all, every time he’s visited Amity Park, most children look nothing like their parents. How can it not be coincidence when it is clearly far more normal to raise children who don’t share an ounce of blood with you, than those who do.

How can it not be normal when Jack Fenton took Jasmine in so easily knowing he didn’t share any dna with her? Even more so with Danyal who doesn’t share even a drop of blood with either Jack or Maddie. Look at yourself father. Out of all your children, only one shares your dna. Do not try and pin this on Damian for being the only sensible person in this family. Blood siblings, ha, don’t make him laugh.

Coolest discovery this year: Jack was born on Washaway Beach.

Kelly in Cas’s 12x19 The Future-vision was shown by the ocean.

Cas died there, too, like the loss of the town’s military force and its guiding light/navigator/lighthouse, The Willapa Bay Light.

Edith Olson, a correspondent for the Chinook Observer newspaper wrote in a 1992 article for that paper, "Four square miles of land have disappeared into the sea with many homes, the hotel, post office, school, cemetery, lighthouse, Coast Guard station, and countless local landmarks…”

Loris A Robson (postmaster): I remember North Cove as it was between 1937 and the fifties. I wish it were like that again. All is washed away now by the insatiable sea . . , there once were people, houses, farms, work, fun and laughter. Now there is only water!"

(On December 26, 1940, the lighthouse met its demise. It had been precariously hanging over the side of the bluff, looking as though it might topple at any second.)

Not only does All Along the Watchtower call the lighthouse to mind, but also the lyrics of the song it’s named after are echoing the doomed theme of the place.

While Sheryl dated John, Jack didn't trust her and the two never got along, I have no proof but no doubt either

Everything will be alright part 2 (birth story)

Summary: Here comes the second part of the birth fic. Make sure to read the first part HERE

Warnings: a lot of emotions

The bleeding continued and the doctors were working their hardest to stop it. Emily had to leave the room, and the last thing she saw was you closing your eyes and a lot of nurses running around. She was worried sick as she sat outside in the waiting room just staring at the wall, waiting for someone to give her more information.

Meanwhile, Maggie picked Jack up from the airport and they both rushed to the hospital. Jack wasn't saying much, but Maggie could see the worry on his face. A nurse showed them to the waiting room where they saw Emily sitting there with her scrubs.

“Where is she, what’s happening” Jack said in a panic

“They..” Emily swallowed , “they wouldn’t let me stay, she just blacked out and the bleeding didn’t stop” she explained, her voice was shaking. Jack walked towards the door that lead to the operation room and tried to open it, immediately a nurse came out.

“Im sorry sir, you have to wait in here”

“My wife is in there, I have to go see her” he raised his voice “I have to see her” he repeated, softer this time, and tried opening the door once more.

“Sir you can’t, the doctors are doing their best, please sit down and wait” she answered.

“I have to be by my wife’s side” he said, running his fingers through his hair in frustration.

“There’s nothing I can do sir, you have to wait” the nurse answered him, shaking her head. Jack was ready to speak again when Maggie walked up to him and put her hand on his shoulder

“Come here son, let them work” she said and made him turn around, Pulling him into a hug

“I need her to be okay mom” he sobbed in his moms arms as she rubbed his back, trying to keep her own tears from falling. “I can’t lose her” jack cried. They stood like that for a few minutes, Jack crying in Maggie’s arms and her calming him down, before Maggie walked him to the chairs and they both sat down, waiting for someone to come and give them updates.

After 10 minutes Jack couldn’t handle it anymore and stood up and began pacing around, and after 20 minutes Maggie lost her patience as well and walked up to a nurse who walked past them.

“What’s happening in there? Why hasn’t anyone giving us any updates?” She asked with an annoyed expression on her face. Jack was thankful she did that because he did not have the energy to do so himself.

“Let me check and I’ll let you know” the nurse kindly replied and walked away. Maggie let out a deep sigh and walked back to her chair.

After another 10 minutes, the doctor exited the room and walked up to them. All three of them stood up, impatiently waiting for her to tell them something.

“Mr.Harlow, your wife lost a lot of blood but we were thankfully able to locate the bleeding and stop it in time” she gently smiled as Jack let out a sigh of relief before crying into his hands. “She will be moved into a room where she will have to rest and be closely monitored for any complications, And your son has been taken to the NICU for monitoring and care” the doctor explained.

“When can we see them?” Emily asked

“Hopefully soon, we will update you” she smiled and went back into the room. You were taken into a room and shortly after Jack was allowed to come in and see you.

As soon as Jack saw your sleeping body he broke down in tears again, he walked up to you and gently grabbed your hand. Maggie and Emily stayed outside to give him a moment alone with you.

“Please be okay, please” he cried “I can't do this without you” 

After a few minutes, Maggie knocked on the door and told him that the doctor had some updates. Jack stood up straight and walked to sit on the couch, he wiped away his tears and took deep breaths as the doctor walked in. 

“Mr.Harlow I have good news,” The doctor said and gave Jack a gentle smile, his eyes lit up and he waited for her to continue. “You have a beautiful and strong baby boy waiting for you in the NICU.” Jack stood up as soon as he heard that, ready to go and meet his son. He walked up to you and planted a gentle kiss on your forehead before following the doctor.

“His vitals look good but he will need to stay at the NICU for a period of time to receive specialized care, but let's go meet him” The doctor informed him everything, while she showed him the way to where baby boy was. He could barely take all the information in, everything on his mind was you and his son, so he was thankful his mom and Emily were there and took everything in. 

Only Jack was allowed to go in, he had to wash his hands and wear a gown, a mask as well as a hair cap. The doctor showed him where his son was and Jack couldn't help the tears from falling once more. His beautiful baby boy was lying in an incubator, he was so tiny but the most beautiful little boy Jack had ever seen. He walked up to the incubator and stared at his son, awe in his eyes. 

“I love you” he whispered “You are a very strong boy, I know you got this” Jack wiped his tears before continuing, “You have a very wonderful big sister waiting for you at home, and a very strong mother that loves you” he sniffled and put his hand on the glass, smiling gently at his son. He stayed like that for a while, just watching and talking to his son. 

“Mr. Harlow, I'm sorry to interrupt” A nurse came into the room after almost an hour, “Mrs. Harlow just woke up and she’s asking for you”. Jack stood up as soon as he heard that, he glanced quickly at his son and smiled before nodding to the nurse “Of course”. He had no idea why he was nervous, but he was, he just wanted to see your face and for you to be alright. 

He opened the door and saw Maggie and Emily smiling at you, you turned your head when you heard the door open and got emotional as soon as you saw your husband's face. “Hi,” you said as he walked over to you, “Hi” he smiled at you and both of your eyes got filled with tears. 

“I’m so sorry” you mumbled, the tears streaming down your face as soon as you said that.

“hey hey no, this wasn't your fault,” He said and grabbed your hand, pulling it closer to kiss it. You stayed quiet for a few minutes, the both of you crying.  “I thought I lost the both of you” Jack cried and leaned his head on your hand, You wiped the tears away from his face and shook your head. "I was so scared" you whispered under your breath. He nodded and came closer to you, he put his forehead against yours before leaning in and softly kissing you.

"He's really beautiful," Jack said as you both calmed down, as much as possible. Your eyes lit up as you stared at Jack "You saw him?" you asked. Jack got a big smile as he nodded happily "I did, he's so small" You both smiled. Jack walked out and asked the nurses when you could see him and they informed him that they had to take a few more tests and bring you a wheelchair, so in a few hours.

"How's Grace? Have you talked to Clay?" You asked Emily, worried about your daughter. "I did, they had a good time don't worry, she fell asleep an hour ago" Emily walked up to your hospital bed and showed you the pictures and videos Clay had sent her of Grace.

The medication made you very sleepy and as Jack and Emily sat and talked next to you, you fell asleep again. Maggie went to your house to grab some stuff for you and Jack, as you would have to stay at least another day and Jack didn't want to leave your side. You were thankful that Clay and Emily could stay at your place with Grace.

You woke up after about two hours, the room was quiet and only a soft lamp lit up the room. You looked to the couch and saw Jack lying there with his head back, his arms crossed over his chest and his eyes closed. Next to him, you saw two of your weekend bags, and on the table in the middle were yours and his phone. The nurse knocked on your door and Jack opened his eyes and quickly sat up straight, you could tell he was tired.

"Mrs. Harlow, Your vitals are looking good, and we have a wheelchair if you would like to meet your son" The nice nurse smiled and pushed the wheelchair closer to you. "Yes please" You got excited and tried moving, but it was hard for you to do it by yourself. Jack ran to your side and with his and the nurse's help you were able to get up and sit on the chair, very carefully. You were of course very sore from the surgery but you were determined to meet your little son. Jack pushed your wheelchair as the nurse showed you the way, and your emotions skyrocketed.

"How do you feel?" Jack asked as the nurse gave you masks and gowns to wear, "I just want to see him" you whispered, already feeling your eyes getting watery, Jack leaned down and you both shared a kiss before the nurse walked you into the room your son laid in. Jack pushed you to the incubator and you put your hand on the glass, he was so tiny and beautiful, he had tubes all over but he was still the most beautiful baby boy you had ever seen. You stayed quiet for a moment, the both of you just staring and smiling in awe at your son taking small breaths.

“I can’t wait for Gracie to meet him” Jack whispered

“She’s going to be the best big sister” you answered and looked up at Jack, giving him a gentle smile. He bent down and gave you a kiss. The nurse returned with a chair for Jack and the both of you stayed with you son for awhile, before it was time for you to return to bed.

Next day

The sun shining through the blinds woke you up, you turned your head to the side and saw that Jack was still asleep on the bed they had taken it for him. You knew he was tired so you let him sleep longer. You reached for your phone that was now next to you and texted Emily to see how everything was going. After just a few seconds you got a FaceTime call from her.

“Mommyyy” Grace screamed happily as soon as she saw your face on the screen

“Hi my baby” you tried to whisper, not wanting to wake Jack up “did you have a good time with aunty Em and uncle Clay?” You asked her, receiving a nod.

“I did, but I miss you mama” she pouted, you knew she probably got worried seeing you like that. You heard Jack shuffle in bed and saw that he now had his eyes open.

“I know baby, but look who I have here” you turned the phone to Jack and Grace immediately got a big smile on her face “dadaaaa” she screamed. Jack reached out and grabbed the phone from your hand, “hi my Gracie” he said with his raspy morning voice. They talked for a while before Jack got up and stood next to you.

“Guess what Grace” he said as Grace shrugged, waiting for him to continue

“You have a baby brother waiting to meet you”

—————————————————————

The next thing I’m going to write will ofc be when Grace gets to meet her little brother and that’s when you’ll get a name reveal🤭

And thank you to anon for making me go with the dramatic version of Jack storming in haha 🤭🫶🏽

Preaching to all people who think some content creator are messaging minor for no reason

aka Twitter/tumblr cross over users.

AhEm... YOUR INTERNET PROVIDER(S) CAN SEE THE THINGS YOU DO WITH YOUR INTERNET AND THAT INCLUDES MESSAGING

(and discord... because you're using the internet to get on there... As hotspots too)

This means if a content creator is messaging a minor in an inappropriate or bullying way (in the UK at least) they would come knocking at you door asking for all your personal information, identification, means of contact and be asking questions.

Has that content creator been arrest yet? Nope.

Is cyber bullying/harassment a crime in the UK?

Yes! Under the laws:

Protection from Harassment Act 1997

Malicious Communications Act 1988

Defamation Act 2017

And can even prevent you from getting jobs in the future of your employment wants to look at your social media! Which is legal! (as in they want to make sure you're not a weirdo or anything! They can't deny you a job based on political stuff or opinions on other companies!)

Is messaging a minor inappropriately a crime?

FUCK YES‼️‼️

Sooooooo keep this in mind when you post things online, that the government CAN BE INFORMED OF YOUR ACTIONS ON THE INTERNET BY YOUR INTERNET PROVIDER IF YOU DO SOMETHING SUSPICIOUS OR THAT BREAKS THE LAW

[taxi-boi]

everyone shut the fuck up pretend its still 413

WOW GUYS LOOK ITS THEIR DAY! ITS THEIR 413 DAY WOOHOO YEAH

[spock-smokes-weed]

While I support the concept of "both of Tim's parents die and he gets adopted by Bruce much earlier" type stories, I will say Tim having a father so checked out of his life he doesn't know his son is living a double life is like 85% of the appeal of Tim Drake.

What's better, Bruce getting another orphan by just bad luck; or Bruce hanging out with a kid who might as well be an orphan by how much his dad is involved with his life? Where's the flavor, the drama, of the first one??

Finding an adult who cares about you and makes an effort when you have an apathetic and absent parent is so much more meaningful and true to life than spontaneous orphans. Also, far too few ppl have seen the panel where Jack pulls a gun on Bruce and it shows.
