Day 19, No Control Z/Backspace✏️

Remeber that Gregor/Elliot kid Sam dated a bit back for one episode? Well I wondered what if he wasn’t just lying but at the same time wasn’t a GIW. What if he was secretly a ghost himself. His design lowkey made me think of swan vibes epsecially with the colors and hair. So I ended up making a swan which in the process I ended up making an entirely new character altogether. Meet Cygnus. Once a normal swan who fell for a human who was also playing the White Swan in Swan Lake, died of a broken heart seeing her kiss the Prince, he now returns as a ghost looking for love once more. And he’s come to fall for Sam who bares a great resemblance to his old love. And he’ll do ANYTHING for her love. They say till death do us part but for him, it will beign them together.

What do u think? I’d love to know💖

I rewatched the episode ¨Double Cross My Heart¨ yesterday and i found myself disliking the whole plot reveal that Gregor /Elliot was pretending to be someone else to get Sam into liking him. I don’t understand why is okay for Danny to date Valerie but the person Sam ends up liking has to be a jerk? Plus, before the reveal they had good chemistry, i don’t know why the writers decided to change that into ¨actually nobody outside Danny likes Sam¨. It left a bad taste on my mouth.

In addition to this, i don’t get why is Danny feeling jealous of Elliot all of the sudden. He rarely got jealous of Sam being with someone else before this episode and reciprocated her feelings. In fact, most of the time he was concentrated on Paulina or Valerie.

Stardew and the halfas

When Tucker told him that he needed to relax and recommended a game about being a farmer, Danny frowned and pushed him away. How could it help him to know how long tomatoes took to grow?

However, after a restless night, where his parents had shot him (curiously by accident), the halfa noticed the downloaded game on his computer and sighed. It must have been Tucker, but he had nothing to lose by trying.

He never thought that he would become addicted to said game, or that he would want to marry Sebastian (something about him was just- well, attractive, even halfas weren't immune to falling in love). The problem was that his schedule was strange and Sebastian didn't like any of his gifts!

He started to get desperate and visit forums of the game, found someone who had the same problem with Elliot, and somehow they started talking. Jason seemed pretty frustrated, and they bonded out of mutual frustration. Neither of them was willing to consult guidebooks out of simple pride, but they appreciated the recommendations.

So they bonded over Discord calls, trying each other's strategies, and quickly became friends. To the point that they did a farm in multiplayer. They had spent so much time in the game that they both almost forgot their problems in the real world.

After Danny didn't go online for a while, Jason decided to invite him to Gotham. The boy took a few hours to respond but in the end he accepted.

Tim couldn't believe it when he passed a coffee shop and saw Jason laughing with a guy (very suspicious, in a sweater, and what the hell... were those fangs?), they were both very close to each other pointing at something on their phones and laughing .

My favorite type of ships/couple’s dynamics:

Partners in crime

Supportive and artistic boyfriends

Lack of communication disasters

Am bored

Nooooo T^T

AU Where everything's the same but the European that Sam dates that one time was an enby lesbian

I cannot believe Double Cross My Heart was basically an episode dedicated entirely to Danny being paid a visit by the Green-eyed Monster and not once did his eyes turn green when around Gregor and Sam.

Maybe it was a little on the nose, but come on! What a waste of a perfectly good visual pun.

I'm so sorry

@artblock-tm

As forgiveness please take a rough sketch done on the same canvas

uh??? uh?????? UH??????? u want a ghostface duo????? gregory and christophe u dumb fuck!!!!!!!

For those curious about Trails of Cold Steel and it's ideal party comp, this is the actual specialty of the various members of class VII in cold steel 1 and 2. Note that this applies only to those games, and not 3 where they change things up.

Rean: Appears to be a physical dps with high speed. Arguably is in fact that thing, and can be very effective when built to repeatedly spam 200cp ogre mode S-Crafts. His true potential, however, is as a Delay Spammer. Give him as many sources of Inflict Delay as possible, and have him repeatedly spam Arc Slash. The max number of different sources from items and special attacks should be 5, iirc. Cold Steel calculates status effects weirdly. If you have 5 sources of delay, the game rolls 5 times to see if it procs, and if ANY ONE of those sources procs, the FULL CUMULATIVE delay from all of them is applies to the enemy. So every arc slash (which has a very small amount of self-delay meaning rean's next turn comes up FAST, especially with his speed), has a 50% chance to inflict 30+ turns of delay on an enemy with 90% delay resistance. The only enemy with more than that is the final boss of cs2, who is immune outright. This strategy allows for essentially infinite stunlock.

Alisa: CP Battery. She spams heavenly gift and gives everyone the CP they need to use their own spam strats. Link her with Rean and give her gladiator items so she gets the steady supply of CP she needs to use it every 3 turns. Also, Heavenly Gift gives Insight, the best status buff in the game. Otherwise, spec her as a secondary mage.

Elliot: Best healer in the game. By a lot. Aside from that, his magic attack is second only to emma, so use the slots you aren't using to spec him as a healer to spec him as a magic nuker like her. Also his S-Craft is a full party res, which is nice.

Laura: Physical nuker. She's slow, has like nothing as far as magic stats goes, and while her defensive stats are good, high defenses only go so far. Laura is good at one thing, and one thing only. VIOLENCE. Her STR stat is through the goddamn roof, and she starts the game with an S-Craft, where most character unlock it throughout. This is a hint as to the correct way to use Laura: Keep her as a support member on the bench, swap her in at an ideal moment, take that turn to eat something to buff her attack as much as you can, and then immediately interrupt turn order with a 200cp S-craft. She's a pocket nuke.

Jusis: Spec as a magic knight, though as he should stay in the backline, focus on the "magic" part of that. Jusis is perfectly fine in the frontline, to be clear - several of his crafts even demand it. He stays in the backline (or rather, in the center of the party formation) for positioning reasons - namely, hitting as many party members as possible with Noble Command, an INCREDIBLE buff that increase speed, magic attack, and strength, and STACKS WITH ITSELF, meaning no, you want to spam this shit, not just use it when it's gonna go down. If he has a turn to spare, he should do some magic damage, since that won't force him to move.

Machias: His value comes from the craft Burst Drive, which lets him snap turn order in half. Otherwise, he's a ranged physical dps. I never used him that much but Burst Drive IS OP, don't get me wrong. I just tended to run Rean/Emma/Jusis/Alisa as my main party.

Fie: Seems like a speedy dps like rean, and can be built towards that same goal as a delayer, though slightly less optimally. Her true value, despite her diminutive size and misleading stats, is as a frontline tank. Specifically, an evasion tank. Use items to get her base evasion to 50% and apply the insight buff to make it 100%. Fie is now invincible against anything but magic (interruptible, also Fie specifically is good at interrupting it.) and S-crafts (rare, but also sort of a "you're fucked no matter what, have a full party res in your pocket" thing). Using a correctly built Fie in battle gave me permanent evasion tank brainrot. Evasion tanking is the coolest fighting strategy, in all games and all situations. Fight me.

Emma: Emma...is your nuke. Your beautiful, busty, glasses-wearing NUKE. Her magic attack stat is as bugnuts as Laura's physical attack, and OH BOY can you make use of that. Pandora doubles magic damage, but increases FP cost. Hades doubles the damage of the first spell you cast. Ingenuity lets you regen FP on the field so you go into every battle full. Claoimh Solarion is a spell that does obscene damage to EVERY ENEMY ON THE SCREEN. Do the math. Watch things BURN.

Gaius: Gaius is weird, but from what I understand the best way to run him is as an S-Craft spammer. He uses the ability to trade hp for cp, while a healer keeps him topped off. Then he spams his S-Craft, which i believe also inflicts a guaranteed status? I ran him as a status effect inflicter, but hey, whatever works.

Millium: Millium is a tank and defensive support. So she's not actually good. Just use offense. Or stunlock.

Sara: Sara has the best overall stats in the game, and a number of very, very hard hitting crafts. She is, unfortunately, kneecapped by that very versatility. Sara is broken on paper by having an absurdly high stat total and being second-best at everything. However, she doesn't have any uniquely broken strats like every other character, and lacks a specific niche within a party comp aside from "DPS".

Let's see different character that being shipped with danny

Octavia from helluva boss

Kat elliot from wendell and wild

Now those two are definitely far much more better love interest for danny and they are the same age as him. Kat elliot she have experience being bullied and she have supernatural power. I get the feeling she & danny don't immediately click with one another but soon they begin to trust each other. Octavia and danny share one similarity both of their parent are neglectful atleast for danny his parent is not pos, octavia her father is cheater and abuser her mother is an abuser. Danny is curious about this owl girl, octavia is goth unlike with sam octavia will be far much more better activist. The episode seeing stars danny is not gonna tell octavia to cut stolas some slack instead he validate her feeling. Octavia can be great ally for danny if he need any help about ghost or spirit. I'm gonna say it both kat and octavia are like the much more better version of sam & valerie

It's sad when characters outside DP work better for Danny than his canonical (and fanon) choices, his only options are grown people and bullies yuck

You know who i ship with danny? XJ9.

can i get a recommendation for operators that are fun to play in IS?

since i realize i was so busy lately, every month refresh i brute forced it with meta now IS feels repetitive to play. Is there any way i can do to spice things up?

Sure thing!

Passenger - Integrated Strategies having many aggressive stages where lots of small fry comes at you while being spaced apart and having relatively low HP already makes Chain Casters a decent pick in IS, but it's Elliot's unique synergy with Hand of Diffusion that makes him really fun.

Because his S3 holds charges, Passenger can generate SP while casting a skill (usually, most Operators have to empty their SP bar while casting a skill), which means that Hand of Diffusion granting SP to Passenger per enemy hit means Passenger can charge his S3 with his S3. It is one of the funniest and most powerful combos in IS, one that can quickly become a win condition.

Pallas - A middle of the pack support-DPS operator in the regular game mode, Pallas has a mix of qualities that let her synergize very, very well with various IS buffs, specifically with her S1. She's an instructor guard whose Trait lets her crit on unblocked enemies, she heals herself upon attacking an enemy, her S1 has a double strike, it has a low SP requirement, and it charges on Attack, meaning Pallas has combos with collectibles that buff SP, ASPD, ATK (especially Spinach type collectibles) and heals, and as an Instructor has access to Hand of Shredder, which lets her ignore a mind boggling 70% of enemy DEF.

A Pallas with S1M3 is a monster with enough collectibles, and her versatility means you'll be happy with a much wider array of what you can get. If you're on a Big Sad Lock run and you empower your Pallas enough, that bear is as good as dead.

Cutter - a versatile and cheap Swordmaster Guard, Cutter scales very, very well with offense collectibles similarly to Pallas, and is able to output some truly shocking amounts of burst damage with her skills. She only costs you 2 hope to recruit, but those throwing knives can hit like the nukes of a much higher rarity! Nanoda—sorry, May, operates in much the same way.

Ambriel - This one's also simple to get: Ambriel is a cheap unit with very high base ATK, and a skill that gives her global range. You understand what I'm getting at, right?

Bring Ambriel if you intend to take on the Third final boss as well. Her Global range with some attack speed buffs turns the Mouthpiece into her bitch.

Bibeak - So, as I pray, UNLIMITED BIBEAK WORKS

Like Pallas' S1, Bibeak's S2 has the perfect storm of qualities that become incredibly busted when she's buffed by IS collectibles. Her stun nuke is instant, charges SP on attack, has a low SP cost, and is normally carefully balanced around Bibeak needing to get 6 kills in order to boost her ASPD by +36 to make her skill spammable, and even then its damage is quite low for a Swordmaster due to how powerful it is as a control tool. +SP collectibles, +ASPD and Spinach-type collectibles can patch up all of her weaknesses, and Bibeak can snowball into a run stomper. Keep in mind however, that final bosses are immune to stuns. A swole Bibeak will still mop the floor with the Floor 3 bosses though.

Conviction - You haven't lived until you've seen Conviction roll the lucky 5% Gigacrit when they've got Spinach + Pasta + Hand of Shredder. There will only be a crater where the enemy once stood.

Danny Phantom Enemies Headcanons

This headcanon is gonna be about the many characters from the series Danny Phantom and see what their relationship with Team Phantom would be in the series ranging from: ally, neutral, and enemy. Now, it’s time for the enemys, enjoy. Allies here and neutrals here!

P.S. Sorry this took so long to due, real life comes before making headcanons. Enjoy!

Warning : Some character explanations will be super long, mentions of death, and other things rated PG-13.

Enemies:

Skulker - He was one of Team Phantom's first villains and was obsessed with hunting Danny for his pelt (GROSS!) and for being a Halfa. Skulker obviously doesn't care about who or what he hunts especially if a child or an endangered animal is his target. Once it's revealed that Danny isn't the only Halfa around (Not just Vlad and Dani) I can see him giving Danny 'the reason you suck speech' about how Danny is no longer special or worth his time hunting, which is a relief for Danny, but they'll still fight each other. Skulker may over time have a villian's respect towards Danny and Team Phantom, but will never admit it. I have a theory that the only reason he never hunted Vlad is because Vlad bribed him with endless weapons if Skulker never hunts him and Vlad pays Skulker to hunt things for him. On the scale of villiany in the show Skulker is #4 seeing as he hunts for sport and how he has been dangerously close to killing Danny and others.

Nicolai Technus - As much as Technus is a mad scientist type guy, he didn't really have the drive to be evil until Danny planted the idea. Once the idea came to mind Technus went through without hesitation, he could've changed his mind anytime. He defiantly embraced his villainous role by manipulating Danny and Valerie's emotions to like each other knowing that Valerie likes Danny Fenton and hates Danny Phantom (a bold move, I must admit). Ans in the bad timeline he teamed up with Skulker forming an even bigger baddie. So, yeah, he's an enemy.

Walker - For a guy who's a warden and expects everyone to follow the rules he's a hypocrite. He makes his own rules for others to follow, kidnap children, putting that shock collar on Wulf and almost putting it on Sam, and framed Danny and made him public enemy number one in his own town! If the series continued like a court episode revealing that it was Walker who attacked the ex-mayor and his police ghost possessed many citizens. Thus, clearing Danny's name and some high council in the Ghost Zone (not the Observants one, but like a lower division council that handles the different ghost jails and domains) remove Walker from his position as a warden and he is a prisoner of his own jail. He'll obviously blame Danny and Team Phantom and wants revenge.

Penelope Spectra & Bertrand- Oh my gosh, where do I begin with her? After the trauma she caused during her first episode she's #3 on my DP deadliest villains chart. Before she even set foot in Caper High, Spectra has gone through many different schools sucking the students' of their misery/energy to make herself and Bertrand stay young by lying and humiliating them, it wouldn't surprise me one bit if those poor kids ended up committing suicide because of her. Heck, she tried to kill the students of Casper High in 'Doctor's Disorder' and Jazz during the pep rally in front of everyone to create more misery. She made Danny utterly miserable, tried to turn Danny against Jazz, and tried to vaporize Jazz, and made Danny question himself as a Halfa by calling him a freak. As for Bertrand he's basically her lap dog and has no problems resulting in killing to get what he and his boss want. I think we all can agree that these two need to stay away from everyone, but mostly children.

The Guys in White - Let's face it: Amity Park hates these guys! Every episode that they're threatening citizens and ghost. They seem to have no problem with collateral damage seeing how that tried to kill Gregor/Elliot thinking he was the ghost boy and destroyed the observation station. Unlike the Fenton's who'll pay for the damages they caused, the Guys in White refuse to pay a penny and use the excuse that they work for the government. The worst thing they ever committed was them trying to blow up the Ghost Zone which would destroy our world too. Overtime they'll waste too much money on ghost catching equipment and the citizens of Amity Park will get sick of them causing the organization to disband. With only Agents K, O, and the leader guy still around trying to capture Danny or any other ghost.

The Other Ghost Hunters - After, their encounter with Danny Phantom they most likely felt humiliated, and it only fueled their hatred towards ghost. But seeing how popular Danny Phantom is in Amity Park doing anything against him is a big no-no. So I can see them waiting for Danny to screw-up so they can catch him.

Control Freak and Lydia - Seeing as Team Phantom have ruined his circus and plan to take over the world it's a given that he's an enemy. He probably spent years going to every town with his circus stealing from banks, museums, and jewelry stores only to be stopped by a couple of teens would make anybody vengeful. I doubt he remembers that Phantom and Fenton are the same person after Danny erased everyone's memory, but he does remember the events. Seeing as Lydia and Control Freak are a couple she seems cool with whatever evil scheme he comes up with. I believe the two were dating before her death.

Prince Aragon - Let's see arrogant, was willing to marry a child (I'm aware that was a practice back then, but today absolutely not!), kept his kingdom imprisoned in time for hundreds of years, and was abusive towards his sister. I see him having more of a vendetta over Dora and Sam than Danny.

Hotep Ra - Was a backstabbing advisor who tried to takeover world.

Vortex , Undergrowth, Nocturn - All three are powerful elemental: weather (Vortex), earth (Undergrowth), and dreams (Nocturn) that connect not just the human world but the ghost world as well. In each of their appearance all three were able to takeout Amity Park in a short amount of time and gave Team Phantom a run for their money, until they learned a new skill to defeat them. Seeing how the Observants had Vortex on trial it's obvious he is super powerful! I wish there was a special episode where all three combined like Skulltech 9.9 to see what kind of damage they could do.

Pariah Dark - Guy was a tyrant king who ruled with an iron fist and was so powerful that a group of ancient ghosts had to imprison him in the Sarcophagus of Forever Sleep to stop his reign of terror. He doesn't care if you're human, ghost, or halfa in his eyes he's above all. The guy transported Amity Park into the Ghost Zone and lead an army that could've destroy everyone and the world! Heck, Skulker didn't want to confront him, SKULKER, that really says something! Hopefully, no one will be stupid enough to wake him up again.

Dan Phantom/ Dark Danny - He has no humanity in him, destroyed most of Amity Park (and most of the world), committed two thousand evil deeds, and even tried to kill his family and friends. Dan Phantom has no redeeming qualities and seeing how the observants couldn't take him out without Clockworks assistance shows how powerful he is. Inever believed Danny's ghost side was bad; Danny is Danny whether he's Phantom of Fenton. I believe the guilt and stress of losing everyone he loved and the fusion with Vlad was what form Dan Phantom. Heck! If it were reversed and Danny killed his ghost half, he would've been Dan Fenton human serial killer. For everyone's sake he needs to stay in the Fenton Thermos forever!

Master's Blasters - Okay, we all know season three and the last episode were to put it lightly -something. But I have to ask: where did Vlad find these guys? I mean honestly, a trio of ghost hunters pop out of nowhere, are better hunters than Valerie and Danny, the second they arrive Amity Park just eats them up and are willing to pay for being saved despite how they feel about the GIW, seriously? If it weren't for the cancelation, I would've built them up that Vlad staged their hunting/ rescues to make them look better than Phantom. As Danny slowly doubts himself as a hero the Master Blasters start charging for the rescues. At this point of time Phantom and Red huntress are nowhere to be found so the citizens of Amity Park have no choice, but to pay. Skip forward to the ending (minus Danny and Vlad revealed to be halfas) where the Fentons, Phantom, and Red Huntress team up to protect Amity Park from both ghost and human threats it's revealed that Master's Blasters aren't as good as they appeared without Vlad's trickery. They most like vow revenge on Team Phantom and try to outdo them only to fall flat.

Vlad Masters/ Plasmius - Where to begin with, Vlad? Oh, wait, I know! Vlad had this whole scheme to keep Maddie to himself, make Danny and Jazz see him as their father, created clones to make a new family, take over Amity Park, and tried to kill/humiliate Jack on a number of occasions. Even in the alternate timeline when he finally marries Maddie he is crazy controlling of her. He's doomed Amity Park/ the world numerous times for power, attempted to kill Danny, Jazz, Sam, Tucker, and Dani who are children (would've killed Valerie too if he knew about her finding out his secret), has tried to discredit Danny, taken over Amity Park via cheating, used his ghost powers to gain his wealthy, the list goes on. Vlad does seem to have some regret which is something most of the villains of the show don't seem to grasp. His older self in 'The Ultimate Enemy' realized the error of his ways and helped Danny return to his timeline (Vlad did state that he could've killed Danny instead but choose to do the right thing). And judging from the end of 'Phantom Planet' and the cover of the book ' A Glitch in Time' he seemed remorseful. He's done many things that have endangered both ghost and human life just to mess with Team Phantom, only time can tell if he deserves redemption.
