#dog encounter
Text
Met a tiny little dog at a cafe and she loved me. Her name was Winnie and after I pet her she kept gazing longingly at me. I would have stolen her if she hadn’t been owned by a very sweet German woman who told me my shirt was beautiful
#dog encounter#she was a cavoodle i think?? I don’t really like the concept of all these poodle crosses but she was just a lovely thing

To be honest. DCxDP where the reason Danny meets the bats is Ace the Bat-hound
Like, just think about it for a second. Danny is in Gotham for college, or maybe he just moved out to find a city where having mad scientist parents isn’t actually that unusual.
He can see ghosts.
The ghosts know this.
Now he’s getting harassed left and right by spirits trying to get closure. Fine, whatever, most of them are a one-and-done type deal, and the amount of ghosts trying to get his help steadily decreases.
Except for this one very stubborn dog.
It just keeps showing up and leading him to crime scenes! He doesn’t know how many “anonymous tips” he can call in to the cops before they trace his phone! And this dog, this incredibly good boy, will not stop trying to help the city. He’s never met anyone with such a strong sense of justice, let alone a dog. Can dogs even have a moral compass?
And so Danny just accepts the fact that Ace isn’t going anywhere and becomes his reluctant sidekick/dedicated medium. He leans into the whole thing, dressing up in a mix of traditional magic-user attire and accessories that pay homage to the ghost dog.
He becomes somewhat well known. The psychopomp detective following around the shadowy figure of a German Shepard? That’s unusual! That’s weird! I mean, it’s not the weirdest thing in Gotham, sure, but he’s a new vigilante and he’s got a ghost dog that people can only see when it’s around him. Someone’s gonna notice.
Damian, as Robin, is the first to reach out to him.
Ace doesn’t know Damian but he does know a Robin, and while this isn’t his Robin, he’s still friendlier than usual. Danny’s panicking because oh god the bats are here and also is this kid gonna steal my ghost dog, Damian is absolutely delighted by Ace, and Ace is just happy to see a Robin again.
Damian decides that the psychopomp isn’t a danger to anyone, and there’s no reason to put this encounter into his reports, really, and perhaps Danny can help with some of his cases in the future.
Danny is sweating bullets because Damian basically tells him that he’ll keep him secret as long as he gets to play with Ace. Ace is happy that he’s finally getting some bat affiliated crime-fighting assistance.
And so, Danny is now both Ace AND Damian’s reluctant assistant. At least whenever he’s in trouble, he can always call a middle schooler to help him.
(Is Robin even in school? He’s out patrolling damn near every night, and he stays out late as hell. Does he have a bedtime? He should.)
Eventually it gets to the point where Damian is going over to Danny’s house. When he first sees it, he has a damn bitch you live like this moment, to which Danny responds that not everyone has the money to afford a nice place. Damian counters that he could at least take the time to clean up, and Danny replies that he’s working, going to school, and being a vigilante assistant to a ghost dog, something’s got to give.
Danny nearly has a heart attack when he checks his bank account the next day and sees that someone transferred him 10,000 dollars.
And so they get into a routine. Danny and Damian fight crime with Ace at night, and occasionally Damian stops by during the day to play with Ace and have Danny help with his homework.
(Damian is smart enough to do it on his own, but some of the instructions are written incredibly confusingly, and he would never admit to needing help to his family. Danny is just glad that the kid is in school and cares about his education, blissfully unaware that he’s basically emotionally adopted him.)
Damian is used to being in Danny’s company.
Eventually, when going over a case with the family, Damian absentmindedly remarks that he’ll have to ask Danny about some of the clues that they might be missing. Nightwing asks who he means and Damian makes a face like he just swallowed a lemon.
Cue shitstorm.
Who is “Danny?” Why is Damian willing to ask for help from anyone, much less someone outside of the family? Does he know who Damian is? Has Damian been compromised? What the hell is going on?
Damian now has to explain that Danny is the psychopomp with the ghost dog who he might have met hunted down while on patrol and conveniently not mentioned, but he’s not a bad person, really, and he lets him play with Ace, and he’s been quite helpful on certain cases due to his ability to talk to ghosts.
Bruce insists that the family meet Danny. Damian, hoping that he won’t just skip town the second he hears the news, relents.
Danny is surprisingly eager to meet the bats, considering his earlier fears.
Damian, blissfully unaware of what’s coming, sets a time and place to meet.
Once everyone is there, he gives Bruce the earful of a lifetime.
Robin is in middle school! Danny knows that there’s no way to stop the boy from going on patrol, but you could at least shift his schedule so he gets enough sleep on school nights! Does the Bat even know where he is half the time?! (No) And why isn’t he comfortable asking his family for help with both cases and homework? Did they ever even notice how much time he was spending at Danny’s house? If Danny was a bad person, he could have seriously hurt the poor boy! Shame on you!
Nightwing is mortified that Damian didn’t trust him enough to tell him about any of this. Red Hood is laughing his ass off, because yeah Danny is making good points but he’s also chewing out the literal Batman. Tim is recording the whole thing. Steph is delighted by the absolute gall of this Danger Twink™️, and already planning to add him to several groupchats. Damian is more embarrassed than he’s ever been in his entire life.
You, he points to Nightwing, did your academic life feel supported when you were a Robin? Nightwing is too stunned to speak. Red Hood, eternal shit-stirrer, says that oh, we all prioritized patrol over our education, that’s just how it is. Red Robin actually dropped out of high school to avoid distractions, did you know that?
Danny honest-to-god shrieks at this.
He finishes his angry rant and leaves, everyone too stunned to stop him.
And as it turns out, Tim wasn’t the only person recording the whole thing.
The entire internet is blowing up with Psychopomp The Danger Twink™️’s rant. People are taking sides. Things are getting messy. Red Hood literally admitting on-camera to previously being a Robin is somehow not the main focus here.
Eventually someone connects some dots from the video, as well as stories circling the internet about the psychopomp. A ghost dog named Ace, who is the literal only reason that the psychopomp is fighting crime at all, which seems incredibly fond of Nightwing and Robin.
A crime-fighting dog who wants constant attention from both the current and original Robin.
Oh my god, Ace the Bat-hound died and became a crime-fighting ghost.
And, somehow, that’s still not the strangest thing going on in Gotham.
#dcxdp#dc x dp#dp x dc#dpxdc#dp x dc crossover#dc x dp prompt#literally Ace is too good a boy to pass on#this veered wildly into ‘Danny emotionally adopts Damian’ but really it’s what he deserves#sometimes family is an ex child assassin an undead college student and a ghost dog#also Danny gives literally no shits during investigations because he Cannot Die#he will just casually take 40 bullets to the chest like it’s nothing#if he encounters a rogue he will beat the everloving hell out of them and then give them Jazz’s card#(she’s doing confidential therapy for vigilantes and rogues)#except for the ones who are too far gone. like the joker#he’s a bitch and Danny hates him#if given the opportunity Danny would gladly kill him but Clockwork says he’s not allowed to do that#so he settles with beating the hell out of him and then covering all his stuff in glue#and of course alerting the authorities

Watching Bungou Stray Dogs and seeing the wild shit that happens in Yokohama every single day made me realise that it's the Gotham of the BSD verse. Imagine being late to work cos a dragon attacked your city or missing your train cos a building got blown up by a Victorian looking dude who's apparently mafia or your fucking math teacher being declared a terrorist on national television along with the craziest and most attractive group of people you've ever seen, one of whom you're certain is the farmboy who you swear you've seen carry an entire cow over his head once.
So yeah, Gotham = Yokohama
Just less Goth and more Homo.
#onlyingotham but Yokohama would be wild#itonlyhappensinyokohama#Hey boss I can't do night shift this week cos the vampire and the tiger are doing their weird courting thing in my neighbourhood#Professor I can't come to class today. Just had a Dazai encounter and I need to go lay down#Just moved to Yokohama and why are there so many attractive older men walking around? Just saw a silver fox dressed for the ball#and a minute later I'm seeing an absolute snack of a man in a kimono?#onlyinyokohama man this city is not good for my daddy issues#New to the city. Had a Dazai encounter. Moving out of the city next week. 5 Stars#Bungou Stray Dogs#BSD#Yokohama#Onlyinyokohama#Gotham#onlyingotham#DC

A cold, grey day up on the hills, a couple of weeks ago. Flynn always enjoys it up there, no matter the weather - lots of interesting new sniffs to sniff - & in a few places on the way, there are also sheep to watch but NOT to chase (no matter how much they’re asking for it).
#flynn is mostly OK around sheep but he IS a border collie from working lines & sometimes if they see us & run he just can't quite resist#doing a little *bounce* at them - to hurry them on their way!#which is why he is always always always on a lead whenever we might encounter livestock!!#luckily once we're properly up on the hills there aren't any sheep so he can run free again#flynn#border collie#dog#hills#england#winter

I don't know if this belongs here but I kinda have a "green text" story myself.
When I was a kid I was watching the movie Men In Black on one of those VHS TV hybrids. It was the TV I kept in my room and so I would just watch movies all day. I think I was under ten? While I was watching the movie the little dog in the movie looked at the TV screen or from there perspective the fourth wall and looked at me. They spoke to me and addressed me. "Hey kid, I can see you and I'm going to get you", being a little asshole I looked at him and said "You are not real, you are on the TV". This pissed him off, like his little dog face squeezed tightly and he did this little growl. He then jumped and headbutted the screen and the TV moved a little bit on my table. The TV shut off. I was scared shitless but I just wanted to leave, so I stood up and walked away and I never watched Men In Black on VHS again. It has only been recently that I have started watching it again on DVD and Streaming. I still skip the parts with the Dog.
Yeah, that belongs here. Good lord, anon. Thanks for sharing.
To those unfamiliar, behold the face of evil:

PSA, keep your dog on a leash when you're in a public, unfenced area. dedicated to the lady that just tried to reassure me, "no she's nice! put your dog down! she's nice!" babe i believe you when you say your dog is nice. what you have not considered is that the dog I am holding is NOT nice and WILL attempt to attack your dog if I put him down. also we are RIGHT next to a busy road and there is Nothing stopping your dog from running into traffic. pls put her on a leash im literally begging you it is SO dangerous for her to not be on a leash here
#rye.txt#the dog I was walking is my grandma's dog and#for the first 10 years of his life#he was NEVER around other dogs or socialized with them#he is CRAZY reactive but it's never been a problem because I keep him on a short leash+harness so there's no chance of him#slipping out and charging at another dog#bUT THAT DOESNT HELP WHEN YOU ENCOUNTER A DOG THATS NOT ON A LEASH AND SPRINTS DIRECTLY AT YOU#im lucky he wears a harness for walks because I was able to just snatch him up directly with the leash#and then spent a solid two minutes dodging the excited dog with her owner going 'put your dog down! she's nice! put him down!'#trying to explain to this woman that I cannot in fact put him down because he WILL start a fight with your dog#it literally took several minutes before the woman realized I was saying 'yes your dog might be nice but MINE ISNT'#'NOW PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PUT HER ON A LEASH'#augh im so frustrated. like I get what she was saying. she was trying to diffuse the situation like#the dogs just need to get acquainted and then they'll play#but like. GIRL. you are at least in your mid 40s you should be old enough to be able to listen when people tell you that a situation is bad

I wish we knew more about how bsd characters figured out they have abilities. The fact that transferring an ability is confirmed to be rare implies that most characters just randomly figured out their abilities. Like did Kunikida one day write in his planner “I need to buy new glasses” and suddenly glasses spawned in his hand? Did Tanizaki play tag on the playground and just matrix-ed into thin air? Did Fyodor just randomly touch another person and see them drop dead in a pool of blood in front of him?
#I’m obsessed with the world building implications of abilities in regards to society but also how it affected each person#half of the abilities are a perfect set up for some good crack… others are angst fuel#I actually don’t wanna think about Yosano because it implies that she had to have encountered near death experiences even before the war#and that is haunting my thoughts#bungou stray dogs#bungo stray dogs#bsd Kunikida#kunikida doppo#bsd tanizaki#tanizaki junichirou#bsd fyodor#fyodor dostoevsky#Dazai accidentally brushed against someone their ability just disappears and he’s like: oh I’m going to make everyone’s life hell#Chuuya probably randomly started floating while sleeping when he was still living his quiet normal life#btw if Fyodor actually found out this way and killed a loved one or something when he was a kid I’ll be scarred for life#I have so many other scenarios I can think about#bsd needs more ability backstories plssss

ngl i am side eyeing iditarod officials a bit for them penalizing dallas seavey for not "properly gutting" the moose the he shot to protect his team. the rule about gutting downed animals does not define what "properly gutted" means. He gutted the moose and i myself would have also eschewed "properly" gutting a dead animal to ensure my dogs were okay (especially relevant knowing Faloo was critically injured, but is now home safe).
i understand the spirit of the gutting rule (saving meat for surrounding communities and in general low/no waste of resources), but it needs to be weighed against providing dog care which imo of this situation should absolutely take precedence.
#iditarod#sorry like....iditarod as an organization has a lot of eyes on them i know this intimately#but it's weird to penalize for having your dogs take precedence imo#like dallas did run further up the trail after gutting the moose and camped for a bit before proceeding to the checkpoint#likely to check each of his dogs in detail to assess potential injury#and to reset and water them to make it safely to the checkpoint after such an encounter#at least he's first into cripple but also allegedly ran 420 miles straight without rest himself? bruh#it just blows my mind that with all the criticisms from outside sources#that iditarod will penalize for this and say for the mushers that one year recently that sheltered their dogs against a storm#like i understand the 'why' of the rules'#but iditarod's greatest scrutiny is of dog care#so why make mushers providing proper care to dogs take penalties#make it make sense

Do you know how specific scent training is? Like if you train a dog to find mallards they can find other ducks, but they're not going to indicate at sparrows for instance. So how specific is it?
Hi! So short answer - depends on the dog and how well they contextualize.
If you have a dog predisposed to finding birds, they're probably going to find all birds and then generally learn which ones you (the human) care about. So say for example your dog shows you a crow, a sparrow, a mallard, a teal, and a finch. You reward the mallard and the teal, and you ignore the others. Eventually your dog will release that you only care about some birds and their indication on crows and sparrows amd finches will fade.
If, on the other hand, you have to teach a dog to indicate birds from scratch, you might have to contextualize more. So you'd teach your dog that you reward when they look at ducks in a pond, and then they'd seek out ducks in a pond (hopefully). Then you'd have to teach that you reward when they find ducks in a field. Then ducks on a path in the woods. Then you might have to teach them that you don't care about herons in the pond. And so on and on, depending how quickly they understand what you're rewarding.
It really depends on what connection your dog makes in their puppy brain, and there isn't a good way to control that. But it's a fun thing to try anyway, especially if it's something you and your dog find enriching!
#asks#anon#it isnt so much as 'teach your dog to find mallards and theyll find ducks'#thats not the best example because usually you dont use a dog to find ducks#(ducks live in water so you just go around to ponds to look for them)#a better example is if you teach your dog to find spruce grouse they might find other grouse#but thats not really true either#generally for bird dogs you need to train them on each species you want to hunt#which makes sense because each species lives in different habitats in different environments#so you might have to run your dog in forests for spruce grouse AND alpine terrain for ptarms AND fields for sharpies#before they understand what theyre looking for#its obviously easier for dogs predisposed to finding birds#because they only need a few encounters to form a strong connection#but baby bird dogs point or flush songbirds all the time!#you just have to reward what you want them to find and ignore what you dont want#and hope they make the correct associations in their puppy brains#i looooove talking about this btw#i have read and watched sooooo much on bird dog training for aroris#i am so happy to answer these tysm

Hmmm I wonder if Arthur's 'specialness' has something with Shubby and since she got paradoxed into non existence, its origin can longer be perceived by Kayne but it still remains. The same way the Dark Young and info on her persist.

The first time I watched Arcane, the framing of Vander's and Silco's ideological clash led me to initially assume that, when Vander attempted to kill Silco, it was because Silco had grown so 'extreme' in his views/actions that Vander became disillusioned and ultimately tried to kill him to prevent him from carrying out some course of action that Vander saw as 'going too far'. The season was notably vague on what exactly was the catalyst for the attempted murder, and I think it's reasonable to say that my kneejerk assumption about the situation was indeed the version of events that the show itself seemed to want viewers to believe.
That is to say, the show itself seemed to want viewers to believe, at least for now, that Silco must have crossed some kind of moral event horizon (or imminently intended to) that was so big and so bad that Vander saw fit to kill him for being, essentially, Too Much.
The thing that makes me hesitant to believe that that's the entire truth of what happened, or that Silco unequivocally """earned""" the attempt on his life by becoming too dangerous (too radicalized?) in Vander's eyes, is simply the fact that the very first thing we see Vander do on-screen is beat an Enforcer to death, with gauntlets, in front of freshly orphaned children. And this happened after he attempted to kill Silco. It's communicated visually in that sequence that that kind of violence was the currency Vander had dealt in for a long time; and that his choice at that moment to cast down his gauntlets and walk away from the smouldering battleground (literally and figuratively) with Vi and Powder in tow marked a significant turning point in the way that he engaged with the world.
In light of that, it just seems like the natural follow-up question is, "Okay -- if Vander was still down for leading a violent insurrection, beating people to death with his own two hands, etc. right up until this moment here, then what the fuck did Silco do that was enough to make even him go, 'come here, naughty rat man, it's murder time'?"
This isn't "proof" or "evidence" that Silco and Vander couldn't simply have had a violent ideological split that culminated in attempted murder by any stretch. I just find the overall framing of the situation odd in a way that makes me think there's more to the tale than what the show has thus far implied.
(For instance: perhaps some kind of external pressure which forced Vander into a bitter choice, similar in spirit to the "we both have our shitty parts to play -- get me Jinx, and I'll give you your nation of Zaun" deal Silco was later faced with? The difference being that Vander sacrificed Silco [or attempted to] in favor of whatever was to be gained by doing so; whereas Silco recognized that he had arrived at the same precipice Vander once had, and ultimately couldn't do to Jinx what had been done to him?)
#Arcane#League of Legends#Vander#Silco#Zaundads#Arcane meta#the amount of people I've encountered who assume that Vander basically tried to put Silco down like a rabid dog#because Silco went Too Far in some unstated way and left Vander no choice#leads me to believe that I WASN'T out of line for my initial assumptions about the situation - like that IS what the show implies right???#and yet it's WEIRD about it in a way that seems SO purposefully vague that I just Do Not Believe that what's implied is the complete truth#the CERTAINTY that so many people seem to have about it though just leaves me like [hands on knees; squinting uncertainly at my own brain]#'am I stupid? am I missing something? does everyone know something I don't? am I letting my fondness for Silco cloud my view?'#long post

What kind of predators do the Thoma have on this planet that requires a neck collar full of spikes? It's very reminiscent of those collars guard dogs have to protect sheep from wolves
those are specifically against stalker worms
theyre fast and agile pack hunters in a similar ecological niche to our worlds wolves. thoma can outrun pretty much any other surface predator.. but unfortunately stalkers are one of the few worm species capable of keeping up with them
people put spiked collars on their thomas neck and legs since those are the spots stalkers go for to bring them down
(distance model bug dogs from the concept art post)
#ask#ice planet au#stalker worms#there are many predators on hell froze over but these beasts..#worst possible encounter out in the snowdrifts tbh#glad you brought up wolf collars#bc those are specifically what i was referencing#vash would cover buddy in spikes if he could#like those coyote vests for dogs#he lost a few of his previous thoma to stalkers :(

the thing is, akutagawa meeting dazai in that forest is possibly the worst thing that's ever happened to him, but akutagawa himself sees it as the best thing that's ever happened to him, and the juxtaposition between that never fails to make me insane
Idk if 'best' is the most accurate term but he does see it as a life-changing moment, and "giving him a reason to live" at the very least has a positive connotation. And yet this ended up causing him so much more misery and pain than he was already in to begin with. Basically it didn't cause his problems but it did amplify them. But he doesn't see it that way and it makes me wanna 🕳🏃♀️
#and asagiri probably agrees with akutagawa so i dont think we're ever gonna get an arc where he learns it was actually harmful to him#but as a fan i can still have my headcanons that he realizes the truth about that encounter#wild how the other time we reevaluate this scene is in Beast where aku ends up in an objectively better situation by doing the opposite#it's a weird situation where it's like the narrative tells you that encounter was a net negative but the characters and author disagree#bsd akutagawa#akutagawa ryuunosuke#bsd dazai#dazai osamu#bsd#bungou stray dogs#my post
