Ohoho, this is beautiful. Unfourtanetly, Hunter's ideas of how to be a Good Nephew are entirely based off of what Belos wanted from him. Some things, Hunter now knows is wrong. Other, more subtle things... Not so much.
Hunter makes food as an act of service, because Lillith, most likely, does not want Hunter to go hunt palismen for her. Lilith wonders if it's poisoned.
Hunter calls out to her every time she enters the room to announce her presence, like he used to herald for Belos. Lilith, an introvert, thinks this is some kind of passive aggressive attack on her.
It all comes to a head when Lillith snaps at Hunter, and his immediate reaction is to kneel and beg for forgiveness, because that's what you do when you're a Bad Nephew... isn't it?
I'm seething at the untapped potential of the Lilith And Hunter dynamic, imagine going to see your sister and seeing that your former colleague/rival is sleeping on her couch in the ugliest shirt you've ever seen, he looks like he hasn't slept in 4 days (normal) and has also been crying (not as normal) and then your sister tells you he's wanted for treason and he is now your new nephew, you suddenly remember the time you tried to trip this kid down a flight of stairs and tore up his Limited Addition Emperors Coven Poster when he asked you to sign it, and by the look on his face he ALSO remembers and he doesn't plan to forget OR forgive your transgressions
did "i dont need him to hurt. i just need him to GO. DOWN!!!" rewire anyone elses brain chemistry permanently or was that just me
Deadass, have been picturing an entirely different man this whole time..
I’ve watched ALL OF DANNY PHANTOM TWICE in my life, and I just???? It’s only been like, 5 years?? And I’ve just?? Totally forgot what Pariah Dark and the stupid little crown looked like.
For some reason I’ve always pictured him with longish hair lmao
"...So, like do you wanna run away together and live on a farm and raise chickens with me?"
"Please,"
You are a superhero and you are sick of it. So you decide to fake your death in the next fight with your nemesis. Unfortunately they have the same plan.
All I need is for someone to gently cup my face and tell me I'm not as doomed as I feel.
DP x DC prompt;
"I'm sorry, Hood. Can you repeat that? There is no way I heard that correctly."
"No, you did hear me right. I am surrounded by at least 50 Talon and all of them and myself are at least partially mind-controlled by this meta. Good news: he appearantly only wants someone to take care of him. Bad news: he's only 4 months old and doesn't understand I'm not his dad. Please help."
Or: a de-aged Danny ends up accidentally Ghost King-ing his way into a really weird family.
he thinks he's being so smooth with his little face on my leg. i SEE you, villain
i love it when a villain is given positive traits not to make them look better, but to make them look worse
no "aren't they actually nice deep down? don't you feel sympathy towards them?", but "wait so this asshole was capable of good all along? and actively chose not to do it because it gets in the way of their goal / because they don't see this specific group of people as deserving of the same treatment / because they're too deep in the lies they told themself to justify it / etc? they're evil not because they're incapable of anything else, but because they choose to?"
To add onto that, misrepresentations of DC and it's spacing. Specifically, Criminal Minds, as much as I like the show, has no clue how far apart things are. Oh? You'll just pop down to Guantanamo? Back in time for coffee? Sweetheart, no.
"I hate how American media will just make up a European nation rather than do any research, so I'm going to get back at them by writing a story set in a fake American state" like, do you have the slightest idea how much American media is set in a geographically impossible fictional small town located in no particular state and characterised entirely by some guy from Los Angeles' collection of half-remembered stereotypes about the American Midwest? They've already got the "lazily inventing fictional parts of America" bit locked down.
No, if you want to play the Uno reverse card on American media, what you need to do isn't to make up a fake state: you specifically need to wilfully misrepresent southern California.
Yo! I'm Lira, she/her, LiraBuswavi on Ao3, and I'm just here to have a good time. The header is fanart I received for a fanfic I wrote! Check out @doodlesforfics, they're an amazing artist.
