My Policeman -- the last look

DP x DC: The Most Dangerous Card Game

Ok so Danny has essentially claimed earth as his. And he is fully aware that there are constant threats to the planet. Now he can’t stop a threat that originates on earth (that’s something he’ll leave to the Justice league) but he can do something about outside threats. Doing some research on ancient spells, rituals, and artifacts, he cast a world wide barrier on the planet to protect it from hostile threats so they cannot enter. This will prevent another Pariah Dark incident. However, barriers like this come at a price. You see, there are two ways to make a barrier. Either make one powered up by your own energy and power (which would be constantly draining) or set up a barrier with rules. The way magic works is that nothing can be absolutely indestructible. It must have a weakness. The most powerful barriers weren’t the ones reinforced with layer after layer of protective charms and buffed up with power. Those could eventually be destroyed either by being overpowered, wearing them down, or by cutting off the original power source. No, the most powerful barriers were the ones with a deliberate weakness. A barrier indestructible except for one spot. A cage that can only be opened from the outside. Or that can only be passed with a key or by solving a riddle. So Danny chooses this type of barrier and does the necessary ritual and pours in enough power to make it. And he adds his condition for anyone to enter. 

Now the Justice league? Find out about the barrier when Trigon attempts to attack, they were preparing after he threatened what he would do once he got to earth. How he would destroy them. The Justice league tried to take the fight to him first but were utterly destroyed, so they retreated home to tend to their injuries, and fortify earth for one. Last. Stand. Only when Trigon makes his big entrance…he’s stopped.

The Justice league watch in awe as this thin see-through barrier with beautiful green swirls and speckled white lights like stars apears blocking Trigon and his army’s advance. The barrier looks so thin and fragile yet no matter how hard the warlord hits, none of his attacks can get through and neither can he damage said barrier. That’s when Constantine and Zatanna recognizes what this barrier is. Something only a powerful entity could create. For a moment, the league is filled with hope that Trigon can’t get through yet Constantine also explains that it’s not impenetrable. And clearly Trigon knows this too for he calls out a challenge. 

And that’s when, in a flash of light, a tiny glowing teenager appears. He looked absolutly minuscule compared to Trigon and yet practically glowed with power (this isn’t a King Danny AU though).

And that is when the conditions for passing the barrier are revealed. And the Justice realize that the only thing stopping Trigon and his army from decimating earth. The only way he can get through….is by beating this glowing teenager in a card game. 

Not just any card game though. The most convoluted game Sam, Danny, and Tucker invented themselves. It’s like the infinite realms version of magic the gathering, combined with Pokémon, and chess. And Danny is the master. So sit down Trigon and let’s play.

(The most intense card game of the Justice league’s life).

After Danny wins, this happens a few more times with outer word beings and possibly even demons attempting to invade earth, yet none have been able to beat the mysterious teenager in a card game. Constantine might even take a crack at it and try to figure out how to play. He’s really bad though. Every time this happens, the Justice league worry that this might be the time the teenager looses. Yet every time, he wins (even if only barely). 

Meanwhile, Danny, Sam, and Tucker have gotten addicted to the game and play it almost daily. Some teachers might seem them playing the game are are like ‘awww how cute’ not realizing this game is literally saving the world. Jazz is just happy they aren’t spending as much time on their screens playing Doomed.

The shape of love, Wolfstar.

CONVERSATION

Fan: no one’s asked me how my head is!

Harry: no one’s asked you how your head is? [gibberish] how is your head?

Fan: Never had any complaints!

biting clawing screaming crying desperate for more content about the lovely terrible mother-son relationship between Janeway and Kim. it's SO unhealthy I love it

i’m rereading ootp (to my own horror) and like. knowing what happens in that one and the next two books makes that intense, bubbling frustration of being a teenager whose worries are disregarded so much worse.

like, surprise?? the kid whose childhood you’re trying to preserve lost that innate innocence years ago. you want him to be a normal 15 yr old boy but if you keep quiet about the dangers he might not live to see his 16th birthday. and congrats on keeping him safe, i guess—you’ve accidentally ruined the last piece able to tether him to his childhood, but i’m sure those months of torture were worth the farce of normality you craved for him. i don’t think you know that your apologies are like sticking band aids on a fracture. i don’t think you’re aware of how you’re ignoring the breaks, but i’m certain you’re expecting them to heal on their own.

oh, they didn’t? and now you’re treating him like he’s a bubble made of glass, waiting to shatter? but you’re the one to have turned him into that bubble, aren’t you? you’re the one who’s holding him, and it’s not his time yet. not for another two years. and shards of glass dulled with time cannot fell a monster, can they? so please be careful. you still need him. he never asked to be a martyr but he’ll do it because you expect him to; you just need to watch your step because your hands are slicked with guilt, and he’s heavy. he’s struggling. he’ll fall as well, if you let him go now.

GAMES I PLAYED IN 2023 ↳ hogwarts legacy (2023)

Crazy to think that the Marauders were so close and yet nobody realised James was secretly sleeping with Regulus until Reg outright called him daddy while drunk at a party...

Crazy...

So we’ve come to accept the reality that I can’t like something without thinking about an in depth crossover where Harry gets raised by people who actually care about him right?

So anyway Shower Thought

Desmond who lives through the solar flare and refuses to fall in line with whatever William has planned but also can’t go back to a civilian life without feeling like he is betraying everything his ancestors built so he gets shipped off to England to chase the other people of their bloodline so they couldn’t be used in more Abstergo nonsense and also to build up the brotherhood after the heavy losses they’ve faced.

The first person on his list to look into? Lily Evan’s who is a distant cousin of some sort that disappeared into the system after an attack on the base she was born at and all but disappeared completely when she turned eleven.

He doesn’t find her, but he does find her child locked in a cupboard while the woman’s adopted sister tries to lie to him about the line having died out.

(The glowing lines of Isu tech now embedded in his arm ache with his rage. He can almost hear Altair’s growling voice in his ear demanding justice. Can almost see Ezio prowling behind the woman and her hateful husband as if he’s going to take them out himself. Can almost feel the lock picking tools in Connor’s hands as he glares at the cupboard with glowing gold eyes. Hell maybe he does see them. Most of the time he can’t tell how much is his fractured mind producing ghosts of the only people he has felt safe with and what is Isu bullshit punching through time itself so they are actually there.)

Which is how Desmond ends up semi kidnapping a child (is it really kidnapping if his guardians shoved Harry in his arms and told him to never come back?) and trying to figure out how much grief he is going to get by bringing the kid home on a motorcycle

The image that really set all of this off is imagining Harry getting inducted into the brotherhood literally in the middle of the battle of Hogwarts a la will and Elizabeth’s wedding in pirates of the Caribbean through both Desmond and the ancestors via the resurrection stone.

expression meme warm ups (from deeppink-man…)

Rose is snarking about someone and Harry is just-amused, fucker picked the murder gremlin and isn't complaining. 

IM ACTUALLY VIBRATING, I FELL OUTTA MY CHAIR JUST SEEING THE ROUGH POSING

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

something we never talk about enough is how tragic hagrid carrying harry’s supposed dead body back to hogwarts is. he was the person who rescued him from the ruins of his old house the night his parents were murdered. the one who rescued him from the dursleys and introduced him to the wizarding world. the one who always invited harry to his hut during school years to talk and offer them tea and rockcakes harry never had the heart to tell him were awful. he had to watch as voldemort killed the boy he was so fond of and had watched grow for the past seven years, and then was forced to carry him again
