A Persuasive Argument - dpxdc
"Great!" Danny says, clapping his hands together to get everyone's attention. The dinner table falls silent as everyone looks towards him. It's a full house today and, honestly, Danny's a little nervous. "I'm sure you're all wondering why I gathered you here today."
"It's dinnertime. In our house." Duke mutters, while doing a very bad job of concealing his yawn. He holds his fork poised over the braised beef, but, just like everyone else, still looks towards Danny before tucking in. It's intriguing enough to wait.
"Yeah, no one misses Alfie's dinner." Dick says, with a brilliant smile that Danny can't help but return.
"Precisely! What better time to talk to you all than when you're all actually here!"
"Wait, I thought you came round to work on our English essays?" Tim asks, blinking owlishly.
"I'm afraid I've lured you here under false pretences, Tim."
"This is where I live."
"I would still really appreciate help on that essay though, I mean, what the hell is Hamlet even about? I just don't get that old time-y language, like 'Hark! A ghost hath killed me!' - absolute rubbish, what does that even mean?"
"The ghost never kills anyone in Hamlet, he's there to tell Hamlet that he was murdered. Have you actually read it?"
"No, but it sounds like you have. Tim, I want this guy to help me with my essay instead. I know for a fact that you haven't read Hamlet, either."
"So? We don't need Jason, I've read the Sparknotes."
"Hi Jason, I'm Danny, pleasure to meet you, summarise Hamlet in three sentences or less."
"Am I auditioning to help you write your essays? I can't believe you’ve gone through your whole school life without reading it, it’s good!"
"Hamlet, along with a number of other classics, was banned in our house because it portrayed ghosts as intelligent and sympathetic beings rather than evil, animalistic beasts. I didn’t even get to see The Muppet's Christmas Carol until last year with Tim! It was surprisingly good, and I hate Christmas because everyone always argued and it sucked. But we're getting off topic. I—"
"No, no, please go back to that, because what the fu—"
"Boys, please." Bruce interrupts, looking to the world as if he wants to hang his head in his hands. "Danny, you were about to say something?"
"Oh, yeah, Mr. Wayne! Thanks!"
"Please, call me Bruce."
"Well, that very succinctly brings me to my point, because I'd actually really like to call you dad."
Nobody says a word. Nobody even blinks, all as shocked as the other, watching open-mouthed as Danny pulls his laptop out from beside his chair. Bruce can definitely feel a headache coming on.
"Before you say anything, I've prepared a 69 slide PowerPoint presentation on why you, Bruce Wayne, should adopt me, Danny Last-Name-Pending. Please save your questions, comments, and verdict until the end, thank you."
#dpxdc#batpham#i forget - can we tag the parent fandoms? w/e#immediately alfred's like: while i do appreciate your initiative may i suggest it wait until after dinner?#and danny - who has barely eaten proper homecooked food ever - takes one bite and then absolutely wolfs down the whole lot#after he's finished he's like 'bear with - I've got to add that to the 'Reasons I Would Like to Live Here' section'#danny's powerpoint has tailored sections for each batfam member with lists of reasons why they'd get along#my au thoughts on this is that the fentons disowned danny when he told them he was phantom#and that this is after the ultimate enemy - wherein which he allied himself with the JL to fight against dan#(which didnt really work at all - BUT he knows some of their identities now INCLUDING batman's)#so one of the main reasons why he'd be a great fit is that he knows their vigilante status anyway so they don’t need to worry about secrets#dick just turns to tim like 'he’s your friend. he learnt this from you.'#tim: 'i didn't tell him our identities!! i would never!!'#dick: 'no i know that. it's the stalker tendancies. it's baby tim all over again'#tim: scandalised gasp#they all eat dinner in silence just super subdued and in shock and sending glances to bruce and danny#duke like: 'so i know I'm the last one in the family but like... this isn't how it normally happens right? did any of you make powerpoints?#tim gets all shifty because he absolutely did make a powerpoint he just never actually showed it to anyone#everyone stares at tim because they all know. it was in one of bab's blackmail files she has on him#damian's slide has danny offering to throw down at any time. 'tim says you like to prove yourself with your skills?#how about a real challenge? if i beat you then you have to vote yes to adopting me!'#damian is in two minds about accepting because... 1) look at him damian could take danny in his sleep! but#2) on the off chance that he does win... damian does not want any more brothers#(he takes the bet and its a suprisingly fun fight - and while he'll never say this... he would vote yes even without the wager)#on one of danny's slides there's a picture of ellie: you'll also get my clone sister! two children for the price of one!!#uhhh.... thats it now - I've been having fun with this haha#spent all day with the 'ive lured you here under false pretences' 'danny i live here' line in my head haha#anyway enjoy!!!!!! this was fun#i wanna make these slides so bad

Inn and Great walking into GMMTV after signing those contracts coming to destroy everyone
#inn sarin#great sapol#just trying to sip margaritas by the pool and these two come in wrecking everyone's day#like could you let these men breathe#most of them just got done with lol fest and fanmeets#they are tired yet y'all came for their throats#this isn't a competition#but if it was‚ they are winning#if this was really a competition‚ they'd be screaming 'I'm not here to make friends!'#I'm a JD fan first and human second#but even I'm looking at my men like 'DO BETTER!'#I hope everyone is scared about the new players on the chess board#because even Emi getting that GL got me shook#interviews are hilarious#chemistry is fire#they are securing the bag

#JRWI#The Suckening#This is silly but I can't get it out of my head#The whole ''The feeling was friendship but neither of them had ever experienced it before'' thing is just So Them#You guys should all listen to The Suckening. I'm having a great time#This was supposed to be funny but upon reflection I'm slowly realizing it's incredibly tragic#*holds them gently* My two special boys#Listen man I'm just a huge sucker (no pun intended) for loyal characters#especially characters who are loyal to a fault#That's my bread and butter#Remember when Shilo called Grefgore his friend and Grefgore was like ''We're friends? 🥹''#Because I sure do#I love all the moments they've hugged it's so sweet#And then after [REDACTED] Grefgore's so happy to see them and Shilo's like ''Don't cry!!!! You'll make me cry!!!!!''#And Grefgore's just like ''I CAN HELP IT 😭😭😭''#Absolute sweethearts#I adore them#They'd be very sweet in a /r way but I heard Shilo is aroace (? Good for him if so) so I'm bapping them with the qpp stick instead#Roll talk#i talk

i bet it takes yaz like 6 months to go back to the support group after the first time and then only after the entire groupchat has been bugging her about it for weeks
#bc by then everyone else knows so they make it so 14 is there#which the opinions are probably split abt whether thats a good idea but#i mean most people there dont know yaz#so if it's just like ryan whos like no this new doctor is great i think it'd be good for yaz#most people wouldnt have strong opinions is my point#i think they'd weigh in but like#shes not their friend of most of them#anyway might write this tonight since im thinking abt it now#the opinions are probbaly split abt whether they want him there at all but i dont think it's a common thing necessarily#they just know he exists hesnot really invited#just this time bc ryan is like yaz needs to just meet him once maybe i'll go badly but lets just try

book runs based on tv shows are usually mediocre at best, like star trek, torchwood, doctor who, etc etc, but i would give anything to get a book run of the BBC Ghosts hotel i need to know what shenanigans those guys get up to in there
#bbc ghosts#bbc ghosts spoilers#six idiots#i think a hotel would be so fun for them#like enrichment#absolutely nothing that happens in there matters in the slightest but they all care so much about everything so really#the weight of any hypothetical plot does not matter#a short story series for example would be great#give me 5 pages of the captain deriding robin about the mouse family he follows and then stalking off to go watch his ants#give me 20 pages of fanny and julian watching something unsavoury going down in one of the rooms only to discover they were wrong#and actually what's happening is totally innocent#give me 15 pages of julian battling for TV remote control with a guest who can't figure out why the remote is malfunctioning#give me fanny accidentally getting in a teenager's selfie and the teen facetiming with her friends about the haunted room she's stuck in#while her parents are on this dumb golf trip#and kitty is jealous that fanny is getting all the attention because this is supposed to be girls night with the teens she's decided#captain and julian watching golfers out on the green#thomas cooing over a blossoming romance and subsequent breakup like its his new personal soap opera#pat sitting in on games out on the lawn and getting way too into it prompting julian to start making bets with him on lawn darts#fanny snooping in guests' luggage and being scandalized by perfectly normal things she considers risque#give a book deal to ben and larry they'd have a ball with it i just know it

I think I finally figured out why I like Furlecia so much despite her not getting as much attention or focus as some of the others in the Arlo friend group, lol
though, does this mean that Teeny Tiny Tony is her Applejack? asdfghjkl
#arlo the alligator boy#I heart arlo#rarity mlp#silly stuff#seriously though these two would be great friends#they'd love talking fashion/hair and would absolutely bond over how they tend accidentally overwork themselves for the sake of their talent#and helping others with their respective dress making/hair cutting talents#random thoughts

This just came to mind when I heard the audio and I think it'd sort of work in the Time Travelling Clemmie AU for one of the love interests.
Love Interest: Coriolanus
You can insert literally Felix/Iphgenia/Livia as the friend in question or even all three of them at the same time haha.
The friend(s) in question are probably joking for the most part, but if Clemmie agreed, they'd 100% go for it.
Scene in question: It's the day of the wedding. Clemensia is literally wearing her dress.
Friend: Let's just run away together.
Clemmie: But I want to get married.
Friend: But why?
Clemmie: Because I love him.
Friend: You will be bored of him in two years and WE will be interesting forever.
`
Coriolanus, standing in the doorway:
Dialogue from the little women movie - this clip
#time travelling clemmie#thoughts about her possible love life haha#tbh I think Felix could make a great getaway driver - they'd 100% get to where they needed to#no guarantees that nobody would regret making him drive tho#picture her friends attempting to shove clemmie into the backseat - there's a lot of fabric to shove into the car too lol#Livia could and would throw hands with Coriolanus - then again Nia might beat her to it. First come first serve I guess#alt - desperate times call for desperate measures - Clemmie gets shoved in the trunk#Pres.Ravinstill has no words when they pull up to the estate and out pops out Clemmie from the trunk.

so proud of myself for putting a big part of my last paycheck in my savings like an adult but now im gonna spend all my savings like an idiot 😵💫
#i mean i am paying cash for my first vehicle which is like...adulting pro level but....at what cost (the price) 😭#also its a very cheap rusty old car tbh but i need a truck for the farm basically#so even tho i could keep driving my dad's car to work since he works from home it makes sense#especially bc its three people sharing that car with me and my brother#and my little brother is a full time student w no job so im the full time employed one so i should be the one to get a car#but i was determined to not take out a loan so its not a super nice car#but i'm buying it from a friend of my mom at a steal basically#like who sells a decent working car for 1500 anymore#but thats literally my entire savings so.... 😬#no car payment tho which will be nice but aaaaaaaaa#and im worried its kind of a junky car and will need tons of repaira all the time and not be reliable#but my commute is really short and i never drive anywhere besides work which is good for an unreliable car#im not convinced its a great investment to put all my savings into an unreliable vehicle but my parents told me its a good investment so#😬👍#adulting yayyyyy#i am getting paid this friday tho so my savings wont be so alarmingly empty for long#but i have other big expenses so im stressed#however it is a nice christmassy red pickup truck which is good for a christmas tree farm#but last payday i was like why do i have so little money in my savings thats dumb and not very grown up im gonna put as much as i can spare#then a week later withdrew almost all of it for the car 🤡#possibly a stupid decision#but maybe a great one idk#and it saves my parents having to buy a trailer for my mom's car for farm stuff so they're gifting me $300 towards it#and it will be satisfying to buy it outright and have no debt on it#but oof it hurts so much to make big purchases#i've never spent this much money except on tuition#i dont know that its specially unreliable i just know its got rust and duct tape and they're selling it bc they'd rather have a car payment#bc they put more money into it than its worth#but its got new tires and brakes and passed inspection somehow with the rust sooo? maybe its not as bad as it looks 😂

me rn 🤝 30yos who are insecure about "visibly aging"
pls card me pls card me come onnn
#i did get carded saturday but it was bc i bought a knife & lighter. not even for me#i wasn't expecting to be carded lol. but anyway u only had to be 18 for that. but i ordered alcohol last night#bc i could!! and the flight attendant asked if i was of age and i was like yes. and she didnt ask for id.....#like dude being of legal age to buy alcohol isnt a common occurence for me. im american....#but now i get nearly 2 months of this so the novelty will probably not take long to wear off lol. anyway#and then I'll be 21 only a few months after that...woah#txt#ok ik this post is so 20yo of me but. yknow its ok#also i am reminded of when i saw great comet (in america tbc) and they poured me and my friend (also 20yo) vodka during a song#u'd think they'd have some measure in place to make sure only 21yos sit in the Vodka Seats like they could get in trouble for this kdlakdjd#it was good enough vodka though that i drank it without mentally preparing myself (assuming it was water) and didnt feel like vomming. so

the suyeol lore is so crazy
#their relationship is so interesting to me like aoughhhh#like you see subaek and even tho they don't talk a lot on camera (most of the time) those two get along so well#they understand and respect each other so much they take their job very seriously and they're actually good friends as a result#suyeol on the other hand is 12 years of slowburn like it's crazyyyyy#you admire him and believe in him like no one else does and then you discover that he isn't that great actually#so you get disappointed and distance yourself and then you both are in this weird limbo for years as you grow up#and slowly but surely you rediscover how your relationship works because both of you are adults now and now we're here#like yeah suhito was stressed back then the context was not great for a leader AND tao was still with exo so lmao pcy could fend for himself#so i get ittttt they were going through it but. i need to know what he said to pcy like oh my god was it really that bad 😭#i wonder if they've ever mentioned it 🤔#writing this bc i just remembered that one time they had to describe e/o and suho was like#“you're my cute dongsaeng i admire your talents so much and oh btw you're not uncomfortable around me these days right? uwu”#LIKE ??? KING YOU CAN'T SAY THAT AND LEAVE US IN THE DARK#(<- they totally can it's not our business lmao)#idolization to tentative ''''enemies'''' to coworkers to friends to good friends is crazy#i need to look into this properly omg let's do some research#anyways i want a subunit :) they can be called exo sc too sehun won't mind bc these are like his favorite people in the world!!!#idk i find the exos and their bond so interesting because you truly have it all with them there's a whole spectrum of friendships#and i appreciate that it's not like with b*s & taegi (if you don't know who they are... let's keep it that way <3)#because those two were just too different to get along. it was extreme. but bighit forced it so much it was painful to see sometimes#and then the hawaii trip came and they painted it like a ''see? after this trip they get along so well now <3'' moment#1. girl let's be serious for a sec 😐 and 2. it's not our business!!!!! focus on making good music!!!!!#i'm so glad exo didn't have to go through something like that bc i just know that they'd have disbanded by now sjfsifjsk#the saranghaja sprite isn't that intense we lovr freedom of choice (keeping in mind that they were under sm) <33333#so YEAH. can you guys tell i can't sleep hehe :)#dara.t#suho and chanyeol

leigh and jonah college au doodles because i am delusional
#thinking about them!!!!!!#thinking about them knowing each other in a time when jonah was less stuck in his ways. and leigh hadn't found their way yet#them interacting completely different than canon because their dynamic would be flipped#but they'd be exactly the same#anyway The Futon has lore and it makes me so so sad#this is the kind of brainrot that results from playing a call of cthulhu campaign ran by your partner#who gives your character a best friend who loves them so much. and then kills them off.#you get to be delusional with about 8 layers of projection. it's great.#fathoms down#jonah muir#leigh edwards#eli said their pairing name would be#microdeath#and i wanted to throttle them for that bc it makes me sad#this has been in my drafts for weeks#so i can happily say that LEIGH IS NO LONGER DEAD#because the delusion with 8 layers of projection *is* mutual and eli was too attached to them to let them stay dead

just remembered how some of my old friends used to act about art. it was wild because they basically believed that if you were bad at something, you should never post it or subject anybody to it, and you should only stick to things you’re good at.
how do you get better at something if you aren’t allowed to engage in it or show it to anyone. why does this matter in the first place anyways
#Psy's no punctuation posts#this barely scratches the surface of how deeply unpleasant these people were but i still think abt this sometimes#this was mainly directed at a small disabled artist they obsessively hated and followed#and they wanted that artist to stop drawing or writing forever because they thought it was bad and wanted the artist to stick to their good#skills... which was costume design#granted the costume design was great! but like why should they only be allowed to do stuff people deem good enough#for the record the reason the artist's art was so bad to them was because the artist has pretty big motor skill issues bcs of hand tremors#yes they spent countless hours making fun of a disabled artist for being disabled while saying it wasn't bcs of that bcs reasons#who cares if an artist makes bad art. if it makes them fucking happy who fucking CARES#it was wild too bcs one of my friend redrew a piece they did to fix it and the redraw was bad KRGF#no self awareness fr#i felt bad for that artist bcs my friends would go out of their way to interact w them or like go in their discord servers#it's weird as fuck. i've never met people so obsessed with the folks they hate before. they'd belong right on kiwifarms if they werent trans

brian colson is a halloween friend; so just a normal friend with a little twist: when one performance of the phantom where he gets to go on as the phantom is over he ceases to exist
#goosebumps the musical#like it's also gonna be weird for zeke and brooke b/c like your new trifecta member basically died lmao#like yeah he died For Real back in the day but his being a ghost was totally normal. then he's like Okay I'm Gone plus you're startled like#you do run smack into the real ghost after all. that would be surprising on its own. and it's your normal friend. and he's out byeeee#it also surely will get its own post but shoutout to the Amazing dialogue from ms walker on the phantom unmasked track#switching from theatre enthusiasm for ''wow the middle school actors did Great (via half just genuine responses)'' to like#a lively yet matter of fact ''No i Haven't'' regarding knowing where tf zeke is (also an alarming element lol having zero info abt that)#right into the teacherly exasperation ''about rewriting the script. on opening night!!!''#which also implies Further nights likely lol. so at least in addition to [finding out your ghost role isn't actually a ghost] [finding out#your horror role has to do romance] [you do One prank for real but then you're getting repeatedly pranked too And blamed for it]#[you get framed which Would be alarming on its own even like what the hell lmao] [it's all good until here's brian w/the steel chair]#like let him actually be able to do the part even lmao. after all that.#that ms. walker exasperation but it's fine really is the energy i imagine for [tina is more amicable towards this duo who continues showing#up for theatrical productions too given that they were in the guys & dolls ensemble & if that becomes anything of a trifecta you're gonna#have like all their individual And group and potential Every Duo chaos lmao]#like sure maybe there's any degree of balance & reining each other in as well lmfao but still quite a handful#like they could both all be driving ms. walker up the wall And be reliable as theatrical contributors#i'd say yknow fine to leave unsupervised even but the trapdoor incidents lol....they'd probably be more careful abt that in particular#who knows if the Experiences here would make one very Generally more cautious or not#they don't exactly realize emile didn't plan on killing them at all; ghosts are real; but it was a normal friend w/a little twist#tina could bring some more backstage safety minding & she would Have to behave a bit abt role jealousy / not being outright mean lol#that is; to in turn be consistently friendlier w/brooke and zeke out here lol. angry not our buddy...#but it's easy enough for someone w/that dynamic who'll come through in the end and is funny / elevated to Become Friend or simply more of 1

okay dont get me wrong, i dont think FFXIV is a bad game, but as a long-time GW2 player, I am constantly baffled at how FFXIV is considered a superior MMO. like im still gonna play FFXIV because I am, for the most part, enjoying myself enough to justify the cost of the subscription. but damn, i really think GW2 has spoiled me.
like, the only major thing that FFXIV has a leg up on compared to GW2 is the social aspects, like going to venues or finding folks to talk to, which is one of the things the game is (in)famous for. but at that point, its not the game drawing me back in, so much as the fact that it has a large enough community to support a thriving digital nightclub scene.
#kanny says things#gw2#ffxiv#sorry if this is like. a controversial opinion.#but ive been having some pretty Rough(tm) experiences while playing FFXIV's story quests lately#that ive never had in GW2 at any point#there are definitely things FFXIV does better dont get me wrong#the crafting and gathering minigames are more interesting and the glamour dresser system is great (though i wish they'd add more slots)#but i swear its like... so many mechanics in FFXIV feel... /hostile/ to the player#and thats on top of the players themselves being hostile too#getting real tired of queueing up with egotistical mentors with sticks so far up their asses that they make the seattle space needle blush#social community? pretty damn good. ive made a lot of friends at the venues and nightclubs ive gone to in ffxiv#the actual game itself? i must have the worst luck in the world or something. i reported SIX separate people today for toxic behavior#and i only ran 3 dungeons today. so let that sink in for a bit.

miss having a huge crush on my close friend when I was sixteen that was so good bad good bad evil good for me
#like it was BAD. but it was good. it passed the time#it's the only real real crush i ever had tbh 🤔#and i was so normal about it btw that's not even me making a joke i had such good normal guy slay back then#well. comparatively...#tbh the crush itself was great because we were incredibly close and i never had delusions of is actually getting together#i knew it wouldn't happen so i just was happy to spend time w them#and we're still friends now <3 they r my riverdale irl 😁🫶#the evil stuff was all of our friends who looking back were so insanely jealous of our friendship for no reason#we'd talk about or agree on or do anything and they'd make fun of us saying we were gfs or in love or whatever#and as someone who was closeted and did have a crush it was. so stressful.#anyway. I'm not friends with any of those guys anymore they were so horrible i had to make a graceful exit in yr 12. yikes!#hope you enjoyed that little piece of my lore <3#.txt
