Can't believe I've had these lying around and never posted it.

Unexpectedly normal

John Constantine falling in love with an Eldritch creature wasn't the weirdest thing he'd ever loved. After his dates with King Shark and some demons, this was among his most normal romances!

Phantom seemed like a creature of darkness and ice but he was the opposite: attentive, kind and loving; things that generally shouldn't be combined with Constantine (given his usual tendency to blow his chance with anyone who treated him well), but something made him stick with him.

Sure, the Justice League Dark judged him every time they saw him but he couldn't care less. When Phantom nervously told him he had something he wanted to show him, John was prepared for anything: a cult, a corpse, some crime he'd have to feign ignorance of (he didn't mind helping with a crime or two).

He hadn't expected Phantom to decide to show him his "true form" (Unexpectedly his boyfriend looked human, usually the opposite happened to him!), and sheepishly admitted that the first time he came to the dimension his powers had gotten out of control, leaving him in a form he used very little. And fuck, his boyfriend was hot as hell.

Constantine remembered when they met, he remembered the cult summoning "the most powerful creature in existence", he remembered the dread he felt when he saw Phantom appearing in all his Eldritch glory, but most of all, he remembered his disbelief when the creature started scolding the cultists as if they were children.

Phantom admitted his name was Danny (Danny Phantom, he just forgot to mention it), and he didn't know how to tell him, he looked so nervous that John couldn't help but joke with him.

"Are you human? These are things you talk about in time, bloody hell" Constantine pretended to be offended, pulling a cigarette out of his jacket "you know damn well I don't date normal humans sweetheart."

Danny looked confused, but understood what was going on in a matter of seconds.

"Lucky for you I'm not a normal human" Danny joked, taking the cigarette from his hands "I'm half ghost, a walking physical impossibility, is that enough for your dating standards?"

John pretended to think before shrugging and kissing him; sure, he'd have to get used to the lack of darkness, and extra organs (though he was sure he could persuade Danny to switch between forms), but as far as he was concerned, this was just a win-win.

Danny wondered if he should have started with Phantom's form first but he had no desire to give the hellblazer more ideas. He was aware of his partner's odd tastes, so he was actually nervous that he would reject him for being human (which was definitely a big difference from Amity), but as John kissed him just as intensely as always he guessed there was nothing to worry about.

So the final character turns out to be based on Ryugen, but it feels kinda weird how there is also one based on Zangetsu and they aren't brothers

Or what if plot reveals they are brothers and he was actually adopted or stollen

I CAN'T BELIEVE HE'S ACTUALLY RYUUGEN?! I made a joke about it when Toten got revealed but I didn't actually expect... (I'm counting it as a win though, which means I guessed three out of sixteen! ...given how wacky some of these got, I'm actually pretty proud of that.)

he seems very sweet though! I hope he and his secret hamsters are very happy together. 🐹

(also:

THIS WAS MY EXACT TRAIN OF THOUGHT TOO! either this is an incredible bit of meta foreshadowing, or an incredible bit of Takahashi trolling, and I -- I honestly don't know which is more likely)

Hiii! Maybe female Madara in a ninja/kunoichi uniform fighting (or maybe protecting Tobirama) and Tobirama literally head over heels for her (plus very protective)-

-The same Anon who requested female kunoichi Madara in a revealing outfit

Did I speedrun this? Yuh

Tobirama definitely checking out that Uchiha ass

this is the same anon who asked about the scp foundation

yeah that’s basically it: secure contain protect. There’s a bunch of creatures and monsters they capture and hold to protect other people (though they also sacrifice employees for experiments so “protect” is debatable)

The reason I’m bringing it up though, is bc they would absolutely be interested in Talon and Fae Dick. And not in a good way.

There’s been instances with sentient scps (such as 105, who can essentially reality bend via photos) where the foundation would capture them even if they weren’t going to harm anyone. And I kept thinking. Fae Dick doesn’t exactly HIDE what he is, and Talon Dick doesn’t exactly resemble a normal human with the glowing eyes and pale skin.

(Gotham in general could probably be considered an SCP though, I’m pretty sure it’s canonically cursed)

Ksksk I immediately thought about the last point with Gotham being cursed because— that city has a canonical SECOND Gotham (Gotham Below) underneath it (sealed off but still). And I mean— Lazarus Pits, Man-Bats, freaky Bird cults…. The SCP foundation would have one heck of a time trying to contain all of THAT particular crazy ksksks.

But yes I can see your point! But both Talon!Dick and Fae!Dick have enough of a support system (ie Titans, JLA, the BATMAN(!) (yes he’s his own warning ksksks)…) that locking them up… might work. Just not for very long. And in doing so would bring down the combined forces of earth’s superhero community on their heads. Something not in the interest of the foundation I reckon 👁️

However, maybe they could enter into a sort of ceasefire? Like, they leave Gotham‘s “crazy” alone (turn a blind eye) and in return they provide some scientifically relevant data for their research?

An old photo I took that serves as a reminder that there are $10 toys that can do a way better "superhero landing" pose than many $100 ones.
