The King's last gift

Danny was tired, tired of being responsible for protecting the world. At first it was just Amity but the ghosts began to explore more and the halfa was exhausted. He was the only hero available and it was taking its toll.

He knew he couldn't go on like this, let alone with his coronation around the corner but he didn't know what else to do. He knew he couldn't interfere with the world after the crown was on his head. The world would fear him (maybe even more than now) and protecting them with so much power in hand could do more harm than good, but if he didn't protect them, who would?

His core ached at the thought of all those people begging for a hero who wouldn't come, so Danny took desperate measures, and cheated a little.

He visited Desiree; she watched him with a raised eyebrow, curious. And Danny did what he forbade long ago, he wished. He wished for the future and for humanity itself, he uttered the words he had wanted to say ever since he knew he would not be able to visit earth for a long time.

"I wish for the world to be safe even when I no longer live in it, I wish for there to be someone who can protect it, even if it's just a human."

Desiree blinked in surprise not expecting the King who had "forbidden" her to do such a thing. She smiled and nodded. Her power grew exponentially but neither she nor Danny said anything about it. The halfa would not undo that wish after all.

In New Jersey, Thomas and Martha Wayne were celebrating the birth of their son. Neither of them noticed the spark of magic entering the baby, nor the boy's unusually blue eyes. Bruce Wayne, the Ghost King's latest gift to mankind, had been born.

And years later, when the Justice League was formed and everyone was talking to each other, John Constantine looked at the dark knight curiously, wondering if he was aware that he was death's favorite.

#dpxdc #ghost king danny #immortal danny #he protected earth for a long time #But Danny knew he couldn't protect them forever #Danny loves humanity but they are not his people #not anymore #his people are the Infinite Realms inhabitants and they would desperately need him after the coronation #especially after the disaster that Pariah Dark left behind #Clockwork warned Danny that he couldn't be the hero anymore #his powers would grow and it would take him a long time to control them #But if he doesn't protect humans then who?#dp x dc #dc x dp #Danny wished for a hero #and Bruce Wayne was born #maybe Danny changed his future and his parents wouldn't have died if the King hadn't wanted something so selfish #but Danny can't help but be selfish #he loves humanity too much despite how much they hate him #John Constantine is wrong though #Bruce is not Death's favorite #he is the King's last hope

“it was you. a little brother that looked up to him.”

“truth is, watching out for you? it’s kinda been my job, you know? but, more than that, it’s...it’s kinda who i am.”

he LOVES being the overprotective codependent big brother <3

#it’s so funny how d*stiel shippers believe dean’s obsession with taking care of sam and protecting him is coming off what john asked him to #he canonically gets off on being sam’s mommy/daddy hope that helps <3 #and we know he only said “you’re not a kid anymore and i can’t keep treating you like one”#because sam needed him to let him make his own choices. not because he really wanted to #not to mention that in s4 sam tried to “grow up” in dean’s absence and well…we know how it went #it only further proves just how insane their codependency is #and a huge part of it is rooted in “i get off on being your big brother / i get off on being your little brother” <3 #wincest #samdean #sam winchester #dean winchester #spn

Of course I don't have factual basis for this but I would be really surprised if there weren't ever instances of John spotting some guy flirting with Paul and then flipping out and scaring him off

#in my mind it's like a combination of his fixation on paul's soft pretty sexy face and a chauvinistic protective instinct #plus probably a bit externalizing his shame for his own feelings #and paul would get defensive like 'piss off! we were just talking 😠' and john would rag on him for basking in the attention #but then later admit he was just disturbed by the thought of a fella putting his hands on paul and wants to look out for him #mclennon #john lennon #paul mccartney #the beatles

Do you think Peter's ever accidentally saved famous people? Not just like superhero famous but regular celebrities.

Like, a lot of people headcanon that Peter is obsessed with Hamilton, and Broadway is literally in NYC. Do you think Peter's ever been in the middle of a supervillain fight and swung down to rescue someone, and once he'd gotten them to safety been like, Lin Manuel Miranda???????

#peter parker #spider-man #thoughts #john mulaney lives in NYC! how do you think gen z peter would feel about rescuing him???#and all the other celebrities in that area?#what if one night mark fucking hamill was the host of snl #and somehow peter ended up protecting LUKE SKYWALKER HIMSELF from some animal costumed goon?#ned would have a HEART ATTACK #PETER would have a heart attack #just like. the comedic potential of spider-man as the hero of one of THE cultural centers of the country #even better: what if one day instead of him being starstruck- the celebrity he saved gets starstruck by HIM #queueueueue #tony: kid if you wanted to meet harrrison ford you should've just said something. I'll invite him to dinner next time he's in town #peter- remembering very suddenly that his mentor dad is ALSO A CELEBRITY: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So it seems like now you can submit questions for Mikoto on the app. Since Kotoko’s MV was delayed it seems we’re asking questions only to Mikoto. And that makes me think. Will Mikoto be answering the questions or John? Or perhaps both? I personally think it’ll be John answering this time so I want to ask some questions directed towards him.

“What do you think of Mikoto?”

“Do you think of yourself as human?”

“If Mikoto never existed, how would you be like?” or “If you could be separate from Mikoto, would you?” (So sorry if this one’s offensive I don’t know)

Yeah I kinda feel bad for asking extremely personal questions but John’s one of those characters we need a lot of information on. And if anyone has an account or something you could submit these or talk about other requests in the comments.

#milgram #mikoto kayano #john kayano #john milgram #Milgram interrogation #I really want to see some more context on how John specifically thinks of mikoto #And how he’s dedicated his life to him a hypothetical question of what’d happen if mikoto never existed #As he bought up something like that happening if mikoto was voted guilty #And something I’ve been thinking alot is if John really sees himself as human #As he basically treats himself as something to protect mikoto and he’d sacrifice anything for him #Also I wonder what jackalope is saying here by saying “are these guys…?”#Could be a mistranslation but is he referring to us or the Mikotos?

John has just ordered a knuckle sandwich with a side of blade

Based off of this ridiculous screenshot I thought was funny:

I rewrote it for obvious reasons

#I love the inverse trope of where the younger sibling is protective of the older one #when its not creepy though #for me dave is protective of rose when it comes to certain subjects since he really just #doesnt want to see her hurt #not like he would admit that straight up though #I think its a worry for him since well. bro.#so i think he would take on some of an opposing role with his sister #not to the point of coddling her because he respects boundaries but just being a deterrent #for anyone who wants to fuck around and find out that is #sorry sorry had to babble about that #anyway #r.i.p john he fucked around dave and found out #wait #that sounds wrong-#...keeping that in that's funny #damn i need to work on phrasing #homestuck fanart #homestuck #grimdorks #shitpost #dave strider #rose lalonde #john egbert #you could also read this as entirely platonic #and that john is just messing with dave #either way its funny as hell to me

1) Three non-romantic duos: Hmmm...brotps I adore would be Jack and Daniel (SG-1), Sam and Daniel (SG-1), and Lune and Matsen (Jade Torch -- is it cheating to use my own book??? xD) If that's cheating, then Sam and Frodo (LotR).

2) A ship that might surprise others: I kinda ship Link x Mipha from BOTW. I like Zelda x Link too, but something about Link x Mipha is just so sweet and tragic. I like that they knew each other for a lot longer than Zelda and Link knew each other.

Let's be real. I don't have a lot of crazy ships. Although, in SG-1, I do ship Vala x Tomin (but I also like Vala x Daniel).

3) Last Song: Shackleton by Adam Young

4) Last Film: My parents and I watched Hitched for the Holidays last night. Very funny romcom with Joey Lawrence. It's a Hallmark movie from 2012, so just before they all got so unbelievably cookie cutter/copy+paste with their plots.

5) Currently reading: Operation Grendel by Daniel Schwabauer

6) Currently watching: The X-Files. I'm nearing the end of season 1. I've never seen it before, and I'm loving it!

7) Currently consuming: Coffee

8) currently craving: idk. I don't have a strong craving for anything right now.

#i am in a massive stargate phase right now #i almost put john and rodney as the third brotp but i wanted to include something non stargate #and seriously. i am enjoying the x-files SO MUCH!!!!!!!!#the alien episodes are my favorite and i wish there were more of those and fewer of the ghost/spirit ones #but oh well #and can i say? mulder and scully's dynamic is perfection #not just how they trust each other or tease each other but how they physically behave with one another #the acting choices seem very deliberate #mulder wears his heart on his sleeve and i am living for that #and he's big on touch. not in a creepy way at all #but he's constantly putting his hand on her shoulder or gently placing his hand on her back to steer her #so much of it is 100% unnecessary for the scene so it feels like very deliberate acting choice regarding the character #and it doesn't phase scully a bit #even in the first few episodes when they've only known each other a few months or less she has no issue with how familiar mulder acts #again. i need to emphasize---it never comes across as creepy just really cute and tender #i really really like how she is SO TINY compared to him and i think his physicality and protectiveness is emphasized by that #but at the same time he knows she's fully capable #he seems protective of her but not in a demeaning way. not overprotective. just lots of chivalry and honor #that's something that seems totally lost in media today: men who want to protect women just because that's what they should be doing #and women who let them #too many women get bent out of shape when men try to be gentlemen #women have tried to wipe out chivalry and then they turn around and complain about toxic masculinity 🙄#but mulder is a wonderful gentleman and i love watching him and scully #tagged #sorry for going off in the tags but i've been wanting to rave about this stuff for a few days now xD

arthur morgan is so eldest daughter coded GOD

#aristotle.txt #i think dutch and arthur mirror the relationship between a mother and daughter in many aspects #dutchs victimization of himself and his continuous denial and the anger he experiences and emotional guilting #the MINUTE arthur gains autonomy enough to betray his wants is just so peak mother and oldest daughter #the way arthur is HELL BENT on saving dutch is so representative of that #john has a much easier time questioning dutch and it is wholly because john is younger. he is the younger child #he has arthurs protection and he BELIEVES in that. so fully. in the way he carries himself #arthur lingers in johns life and his choices. john has the autonomy and freedom of a second child #ON TOP OF THIS. i think dutch loves both john and arthur. i dont think that is untrue #dutch is pathetic and he experiences major decline in sanity #the impact of arthurs death.... the abysmal reality that it was by dutchs hand that he died... dutchs sin is pride #he is hysterical in his attempt to prove what i can only assume is his worth as a father figure #he is so deep in denial and truly has lost his mind. that many has so much wrong with him #but he is well written and nuanced and so often feels motherly in his platitudes and preaching #a prideful mother and a daughter hellbent on making sure she is never lonely ohhhh theyre so #aough this game. this game is cooking me.#also the lengths that arthur goes to keep all of his tenderness wrapped in the pages of his journal and safe from everyone.....oh we're #really in it now arthur morgan #a.rdr2

I don’t know where the Jacob and John have a rivalry theory comes from either, even before the Collapse DLC. I’ve only really seen it in fan fiction.

Could he just another fanon assumption you know?

I suppose it is, yes… I don’t think the idea of a rivalry between them is consistent with what The Book of Joseph says about their relationship, but it’s just my opinion, and not everyone has read the book.

John and Jacob never interact in the game so we don’t know for sure if they’re in conflict or not, but it really doesn’t look like they were about to “take each other down”, as Hurk said in that deleted line. The only “interaction” they have (aside from the look they exchange in the church at the beginning) is a note written by John saying he wanted Jacob to have Boomer because “this dog’s a champion”, so I guess they weren’t on bad terms.

People have also rightly pointed out that the brothers see the world a bit differently and that, maybe, that’s where the idea of possible discord between them stems from. Jacob believes it’s bad that we, as a species, have grown accustomed to the comfort of modern society because it’s made us weak and that we should “return to our natural selves”. Meanwhile, John seems more materialistic (on the surface, at least), owns a luxurious ranch, and doesn’t look like he’s ready to live in the wilderness...

That said, Jacob was obsessively “culling the herd” and looking for “strong” people because he was building an army… to protect the Family. Not every member of the Project can fight, and even if, by Jacob’s standards, John is possibly “weak”, that doesn’t necessarily mean he looks down on him. On the contrary, I like to think that the army he was training was meant to protect him too. Jacob made sure that his soldiers were the strongest they could be, so even after his death, he knew his brothers would be safe.

#look jacob has many issues but he really was protective of his family I’ll give him that #I mean the whole family has issues as we know but yeah #far cry 5 #john seed #jacob seed #so unfortunately boomer was probably going to be turned into a judge #but I think the note shows john wanted to make jacob happy or at least cared about his interests

Davesprite, if you let Lil Cal possess you out of your own hubris, you're giving the anons (especially myself) a new thing to tease you about.

- ScAnon

(OOC: Let me ramble for a bit. Feel free to skip this if you don't wanna read it.

I think it makes perfect sense for Davesprite to refuse to show the Cal-o-meter. For one thing, it provides contrast to how John's Grimdarkness meter and Rose's Radiance meter were always there when it needed to be shown, which shows the difference in how Davesprite deals with his problems compared to the other two. For another thing, it shows his awareness as a sprite as meters are typically a video game mechanic. The fact that he hides it means he's probably using his spritely knowledge as a means of protecting himself and what he believes to be protecting others as well.

Okay, ramble over, back to funny shenanigans.)

TG: how many fucking times do i have to say it TG: he isnt going to possess me TG: you know why? TG: because hes a stupid TG: goddamn TG: PUPPET TG: and honestly if you goddamn anons werent constantly fucking 'teasing' me about shit then maybe i wouldnt have to hang out with a fucking puppet TG: but here we fucking are i guess TG: thanks for that assholes

#davesprite #homestuck #shitty davesprite daily #scanon #//hes angy #im so sorry scanon #also re: that ooc part YEAHH #he repressed his emotions more compared to rose and john so ofc hed repress that #he doesnt want people seeing that shit #and the 'protecting himself and others' part.... yeahhh #the only reason yall saw it that one time was because i was basically hijacking and overriding so you could tell smth was going on with ca #but you seem to get the memo now so #:)

Ghost is a walking dichotomy, Soap has discovered. He's watched him strip the layers of a man's skin away to get information from him, seen him snap someone's neck in as little time as it takes to take a breath. But he's also so capable of heartbreaking kindness. His genuine concern for the fish, the way he saves the best part of his plate for Soap; offering it to him with reverence. The way he's cleaning Johnny's wound so tenderly. It's in these moments of gentleness where Johnny almost forgets what they do, what they've seen, who they are.

So when Ghost's voice snaps into that serious tone it's almost like a slap in his dizzy, goofily smiling, face.

"Wha?"

"Where is it? I'll get rid of it for you." Under the sharp tone is still that lethal gentleness, and even under that is a shaking fear.

"Oh, oh Ghost." He shifts, uncomfortable in his skin and wanting to be anywhere but here. "Ye... Ye cannae get rid of it."

His Lieutenant draws back a little, a mix of apprehension and offense in his eyes.

"It hurt you, nothing else matters."

Soap can feel his heart splitting as his throat starts to burn. Ghost stares up at him with fiery eyes, hands still holding his wrist so so softly.

"Where is the snake Soap? I promise you it'll never hurt you again. Whoever brought it in is going to have hell to pay too." He earnestly promises and Soap feels a single hot tear slip out of his eye.

"Ghost..." He chokes out. "Simon... It's mine."

The small room goes silent. Nothing even dares to move but for the violent flinch the sentence rips out of Ghost.

He doesn't dare say anything, doesn't dare to move or even breathe. He looks down at Ghost and Ghost meets his stare with turmoil roiling in his gaze.

Soap doesn't know what he expected, screaming or sobbing or angry silence but the frantic confusion he can see in the other man is as far as can be from what he'd thought he'd get.

They sit there like that for a few long moments, each absorbed in his own thoughts, before Ghost slowly rises from his kneel. If Johnny were in better spirits he would tease him for the quiet cracks his knees make. And with that violent tenderness he slowly curls an arm around Johnny and leans him down into the bed, pressing behind him and holding him close just like they'd done on any number of frigid nights out in the blind. And they just sit there holding each other in silence as they slowly drift into a dreamless sleep.

#in this canon this is the first time theyve done something that can't be explained away by extenuating circumstances #but you don't really save the best parts of your meal religiously for your subordinate who youre friends with #Ghost is devoted to Soap #full stop #and Soap is dedicated to Ghost 100%#i hear you “Cthulhu why are the emotionally constipated military men just cuddling instead of resolving their issues unhealthily?”#to which i say:#Ghost just had his world tilted on its axis #a constant in his life is that snakes are bad and the people who keep them are bad people who do bad things #like his father #but here's John “he owns my soul” MacTavish bleeding profusely and still not letting Ghost kill the snake also being unquestionably good #even though he understands intellectually that Soap has done bad things #hes watched the little punk blow up shit for the sake of it and literally clip a car battery to a man's ears #that doesn't matter because Johnny is Good with a capital G and he is the exact opposite of Ghost's father #so he really doesnt have it in him to be angry and he just needs to hold close to the constancy and try to reconcile his new information #And Soap is just so so ready to be immediately rejected and never see Simon again #he doesn't want to sacrifice what he maybe has with Ghost to protect his rescues #because they need him and they didnt ask to be what they are or where they are #so hes just so so relieved that Ghost hasnt ordered him out and killed all of his babies #because he's seen Ghost shoot a dog in yhe head on a mission for barking and Ghost loves dogs #he doesnt want to see what Ghost would do to an animal he doesn't like #I HOPE THIS IS BETTER THAN THE CLIFFHANGERS #GUYS THERES SO MUCH CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT COMING #AHOFFBIDKSHAIAKBZJA #cod mw2 #fish person gaz #ghost x soap #ghostsoap #reptile person soap

I’m wondering... what if we’ve been interpreting Pyrrha’s observation backwards? What if the stoma didn’t react to John because of his connection to the Resurrection Beasts, but rather the other way around? This whole time they’ve been reacting to the Resurrection Beasts because of their connection to John, and by extension Alecto.

It’s been bugging me that the thing that possessed Colum Asht gave him eyes black as the Emperor’s, before it turned them to stoma in his head. It’s been bugging me even more that it only stomafied him after coming into contact with Gideon. His eyes were black until Gideon attacked him, and then they turned to mouths in his head. Whatever was in Colum tried to eat Gideon, like the stoma eat Resurrection Beasts.

Then there’s another thing that’s been bugging me. Why, out of the hundreds of thousands of planets that John and his Empire have killed, are there only nine Resurrection Beasts? Why can the minor beasts Harrow creates be killed by a half-realised baby lyctor with a sword, while the Resurrection Beasts are literally unkillable? They have to be flayed to their cores and then shoved through the mouth of hell, where we don’t know what happens to them. That’s not a difference in scale, it’s a difference in nature. The Resurrection Beasts are just as immortal as Gideon, and the stoma reach for them both the same.

John is the connecting factor. John, and the power he derives from Alecto. The power which created the Resurrection Beasts, and which Gideon inherited a part of. The stoma aren’t after the Resurrection Beasts, not really; they want John. They want Alecto, and the power that enabled the Resurrection that’s still embedded in the souls of the planets that died for it.

#I have to speculate that this is connected to the displacement #and the things there that eat us that Ianthe referred to once and have not been mentioned since #suspicious as fuck if you ask me #I do still think the RBs are the source of necromancy #but John is not a normal necromancer and his power comes from somewhere else #something else #whatever Alecto is she comes from the place beyond the stoma #and the place beyond the stoma wants her back #if siphoning really does create a connection to that place via the displaced soul of the cavalier no wonder John condemns it #the last thing he wants is for whatever's over there to find a pathway into his world #not when it's coming for him #not when it's coming for Alecto #I thought the fundamental difference between Harrow's entombment of Gideon and John's entombment of Alecto #was that Harrow was protecting Gideon and John was hurting Alecto #I might have to revisit this assumption and tag it with a question mark #Of course John's motives are still suspect as fuck and of course I don't trust the man #but I have to remember what parts of the picture we have are facts and what parts are conjecture #right now it's mostly conjecture #the locked tomb #tlt meta #alecto the first #the resurrection #emperor john gaius #harrow the ninth #htn spoilers #alecto theories #the stoma #I've been gone for a week but I'm back bitches!#did you miss me? I've missed you
