#maybe I haven't decided yet
Text
Technically, Sizhui could be anywhere in the Cloud Recesses. There are even a few places outside the Cloud Recesses -- in the woods, or down in Caiyi town -- where he might have gone. He’s quick even on foot, and while Jingyi doesn’t think Sizhui would go sprinting through the Cloud Recesses in the dead of night to get to wherever it is he’s been going, Sizhui is already breaking curfew and sneaking out, so. Who knows, really.
But Jingyi has been Sizhui’s best friend for as long as he can remember, and he thinks he has a pretty good idea of where to find him.
The rabbit hill is still and mostly empty this late at night, the little bunnies curled into their little burrows to sleep. There are a few rabbit friends out and about though, white puff balls converging around a much bigger white shape in the center. Jingyi mentally pats himself on the back. He may not know Sizhui well enough to figure out why he’s been so weird lately, but he knows where he goes when he’s upset.
He approaches on silent feet, less because he actually thinks he can sneak up on Sizhui and more because he doesn’t want to startle away any of the bunnies. Petting the little fluff balls is incredibly soothing when you’ve had a bad day, and Sizhui has been having a bad... uh, month? Jingyi noticed him being upset a couple weeks ago, but knowing Sizhui he was probably stewing for a while before he started to let it show, so... Jingyi is gonna tentatively go with “month,” and then adjust the timeline as new information is revealed.
Sizhui... doesn’t look up as Jingyi settles into the grass beside him. Concerning! Jingyi does not like that! He does nod his head in greeting though, so that’s something, at least. He -- oh.
It’s hard to tell, in the thin, silvery moonlight, but. His eyes look a little bit wet, not like he’s been crying but like he’s thinking he might start soon.
Oh, no. Jingyi should have followed him the same night he caught Sizhui sneaking out of their room. He should have forced Sizhui to tell him what was wrong weeks ago. Jingyi is the worst friend ever.
Well. He can fix this! He can. He can try to start fixing this, anyway. He doesn’t bother with any of the obvious questions, like are you okay (obviously not) or do you want to talk about it (if he did he would have already.)
Instead what he says, more to the rabbit burrowing into his lap than to Sizhui, because Sizhui kind of reminds him of a rabbit right now too and Jingyi feels like too much attention will make him startle away -- what he says is “Can I help?”
Sizhui takes a shaking, hitching little breath, shock and sorrow. He bows his head. They are, for one absolutely agonizing goddamn moment, completely silent.
They’re sitting in silence for so long that Jingyi starts to wonder if maybe Sizhui won’t talk to him after all. That would be... fine. That would be fine! Sizhui is allowed to have secrets, even if Jingyi is stung by the thought that Sizhui would keep secrets from him. But they’re grown up now and secrets and normal and that’s fine.
“Can I... tell you?” He’s so busy reassuring himself that he won’t be upset if Sizhui doesn’t say anything that he almost misses it when Sizhui finally does say something. Jingyi blinks, and sits up straight. (The bunny in his lap startles and hops away.)
“Of course! You know you can tell me anythi--” “Jingyi.” Oh. That’s. Sizhui has never looked at him like that before. Sizhui has always been the one reaching out for Jingyi, ever since they met, scolding the other kids for bullying him when he struggled in class and helping him study when the teachers moved on before he could understand a concept. Sizhui brought Jingyi to the Jingshi when Hanguang-Jun was still in seclusion because he thought Jingyi needed a grown-up, and Jingyi was welcomed to their table and into their house and into their lives.
Jingyi spent most of his childhood nights curling up to sleep in a-Yuan’s bed, listening to Hanguang-Jun play them both a lullaby, just because he didn’t like sleeping in the orphan’s house. He has always thought of Sizhui as safety, and stability, and home.
And now, Sizhui is looking at Jingyi like he’s a stranger. Sizhui is looking at him like he’s afraid.
“Jingyi,” he says again, so, so quietly. He’s turned now so they’re properly facing each other, and Jingyi can see that he isn’t empty-handed. He’s holding an old, fraying red ribbon in his lap, stroking it with careful fingers. “That -- that’s what I need. That’s how you can help. Jingyi, can I tell you?” His hands twitch, curl into fists. He clutches the ribbon to his stomach. “Can I trust you?”
And -- well. Fuck. Obviously there’s only answer to that!
Jingyi is slow and careful when he reaches out to put a hand on Sizhui’s, but is neither slow nor careful when he says “Yes,” with his whole chest behind it. “Whatever it is, Sizhui, you can trust me.”
It’s true. Jingyi is already wracking his brain for what big secret Sizhui could possibly be about to reveal. Did he kill someone? Sizhui wouldn’t do that without good reason, and Jingyi can’t imagine what that reason could be or when it could have happened but he’ll help cover for Sizhui, he’ll do it, he’ll hide a body and be an alibi if he has to. Oh, huh, but if the person is still a ghost they’re gonna have to deal with that. Eugh. Jingyi will do it, because he’s a cultivator and that’s his job, but--
“I’m a Wen,” Sizhui says, and the entire world promptly stops making any sense.

Custody Battle (dpxdc prompt)
When Jason Todd died, he formed a ghost in the Ghost Zone. Danny Phantom, at this point a good few hundred years old, comes across this tiny, freshly dead ghostling that reminds him a bit too much of himself when he first died. Like any good adult ghost, Danny's core immediately latches onto Jason's as his Son, and bada bing bada boom! Jason now has a ghost dad!
When Jason is resurrected, Danny is in complete distress and immediately goes running across dimensions to figure out where the HELL his baby went. When he finally finds him, Jason is no longer a scrawny little thing but a gigantic brick house of a crime lord with his very own haunt. They grow up so fast!
Jason apparently also has a ton of siblings. It doesn't matter that they aren't ghosts, Danny has decided that he is now the father of all the batkids. Cool! The only problem is... Batman.
What proceeds is the world's weirdest passive-aggressive custody battle as the two compete for the title of Best Dad. The batkids can't decide if Danny and Bruce genuinely despise each other or if they just really, really need to fuck and get the tension over with. Either way, the kids are reaping the rewards.

Concept: live-action adaptation of The Odyssey with dual casting, so that the actor for Odysseus is also playing Poseidon, the actor for Penelope is also playing Athena, and the actor for Eumaeus is also playing Zeus. Do you see my vision

Dr. Yeva is a totally normal doctor who just wants to help the people of Pupu Village. This is great since Yabui is a hack.

"What's your name?" Darius asks offhandedly while reading the newspaper, as Allison is setting the table.
"My... my name? Well, you usually call me Allison." Allison stops moving as they ponder the question, clearly surprised.
"I know I do, pet, but is that your real name? Do you even remember what it was?" Darius seems pretty amused, peering at them expectantly above their newspaper.
"I..." Allison trails off, looking somewhat panicked now. "Am... am I supposed to? I-I mean even if I try, I just... can't..." they laugh nervously as they finish setting the table.
"No... I suppose you're not, your old name is unimportant by now anyways, as it's not like you need to listen to it anymore" Darius seems even more amused, smirking, and he pats the top of their head, leaving Allison to their thoughts and the panicked realization that they don't seem to remember anything from their life before meeting him.

[chiluc angel au]
lore drop! diluc always wears a translucent veil to cover their face, and bc of magic, it can't be blown upwards by the wind to reveal how they look. it can, however, be blown against them so ajax can see the contours of their features. all this does is make him more curious though.
open for better quality | no reposts | ID under the cut
[Image description: A three page traditional comic of a scene from my Chiluc Angel AU.
On the first page, Ajax washes dishes at the kitchen sink while Diluc sits on the couch behind him, reading a book. "You're always wearing your veil, even at home," says Ajax. "Why won't you show me your face, Master Angel?"
"Mortals cannot comprehend my appearance," replies Diluc.
A tiny Ajax face at the bottom of the page laughs a "haha" with furrowed brows.
On the second page, Ajax says, "Okay, so you're self-confident. But still, not even a little peek?"
"No, what I meant was-" Diluc starts.
On the third page, Diluc finishes his sentence with, "you would literally be blinded."
A serious air and gloom hang over the scene.
Ajax is silent for a moment, and then responds, "You know what? Nevermind then."
"A wise choice," says Diluc.]

450 dtiys!! rules are pretty loose: keep the wizard cowboy. you can change the clothes and pose and background. :-)
please reblog if you like it!!
[image description: a digital painting of a cowboy. they're brown skinned with white silver eyes, short black hair and scruff on their chin and jaw. they're wearing black lipstick and eyeliner. they're wearing a dark brown and gold tasselled jacket, a striped beige shirt, a bolo tie, tight leather pants and high heeled cowboy boots. they're holding up one finger, their other hand on their hip, one foot up on a ledge. sparks and stars come from their raised finger. the background is a twilight sky with clouds, and they seem to be lit by a sunset. end id]

Angels’ trueforms in their most memorableimagined moments [22/?] - Cas and Dean having sex for the first time
inprnt | society6 | redbubble | ko-fi
#MY LONGEST YEAH BOI EVER!! yall knew i'd make this one eventually. i simply had to#spn#spnart#spn art#trueforms#mine.caro#this one has a whole backstory bc listen. i started this one A YEAR AGO#tl;dr i was making it in the living room when my grandma had an accident. went to the hospital. and then moved in with us#and after that the art supplies for collages just sorta stayed in the living room and i hadn't touched them since until like 2 weeks ago#when i decided Okay. it's been A YEAR. that's enough. i need to finish this#the original plan was gonna be a 3 parter with a whole story of HOW they got to that point and everything#but it's been a year. i figured i'd finish this. post it. and maybe someday do that 3 parter bc it's a whole other thing#that was gonna involve a nephil and everything but i haven't figured out how to draw those. i will when i draw jack :)#anyways this one has weirdly less to explain bc the dean part isn't me doing human souls yet. this is about cas above all#so it's more like. dean as he is physically/metaphysically/wtv in relation to cas and all his dimensions#so i went with a collage to do that relation. angel trueform vs a smattering of earthly human things#a mess of body parts above all but not only that. i was gonna include more Violence Imagery but i didn't have a lot of cutouts for that#the trueform itself doesn't have much that's unique. i basically got the leviathans-bloody valentine trueforms and melded them#bc the original idea was gonna be set around s6 and it includes a lot of the same overall vibes and feelings of those moments#and i pictured that fusion with that big central. yes. eyemouthvagina:tm: opening up. the physical effect of that in the patterns#the black hole/eye in the middle same logic. the usual yonic touch bc it's me and who's gonna stop me i guess#and the collage choices speak for themselves i think? or at least i can't phrase them better than what's already there#so now here it FINALLY is and i'm gonna put it up on the stores. hope yall like this one#oh and. the hand cutouts in cas are dean grabbing him and the drawn hands in dean are cas grabbing him#hope that was clear without the explanation tho sdkjfg

I'm making another silly Ninjago poll because they bring me joy
I chose not to include Zane or Pixal since them being nindroids means they never really were little kids, so it didn't make sense to include them.
