tommyinnit about getting a filling at the dentist’s: it was fine because the drills sounded like the robots from Wall-E so i found that quite enchanting
This has been a PSA.

laishuro is so fucking funny. you fail to propose to a white woman. her brother pisses you off cause of your unresolved jealousy and inability to emotionally regulate. during your blowout fight that resolves this unspoken resentment, he sticks his fingers in your mouth, ask what your mouth is good for, and pulls your hair. you give him a magic bell that will alert you if he needs help. the minute it rings you make a u-turn and find out he played fetch with it. there are bigger problems right now. when its all over, the woman, who was turned into a Creature, marries some elf you've known for a week. the brother becomes king and looks like a full snack in his wolf pelt, which is deeply ironic for thirty different reasons. your love rivals are some blue-eyed bitch who is obviously untrustworthy, a guy who you last saw trying to force-feed you onigiri, and a divorced father of three. you do nothing about any of this and go home. clown behavior.
Dawg its a fictional character, calm tf down 😭😭
Also, the art is gorgeous
Au where when Saiki was younger, he sometimes ran into Aren's mom injured and helped her out, and he became something like an unofficial medic to her and her little group. Sometimes when Saiki was patching her up, she would vaguely talk about her kid around his age and stuff. Well, she wouldn't mention Aren by name or talk about him out loud but Saiki just reads her thoughts and so he vaguely knows about her little Hoodlum but then she and her gang moved and Saiki being a little too good at Rock Paper Scissors happened and so they got separated and drifted apart.
Only for some odd years later (Like, four or five) and Aren transfers into Saiki's class with his whole trying to be a normie spiel and how he is totally not gonna be a punk anymore. Aren doesn't really look like his parents (In the same way of how Kusuo and Kusuke don't really look like Kurumi) so Saiki doesn't really suspect anything- and neither does Aren, and they carry on. Imagine a similar situation as the street magician Chouno Uryoku and how his ex-wife did not look anything like how the dude thought of her.
Saiki never really got out of his Street Medic habits and Aren sometimes coming to school with some scrapes from gangsters either trying to pick a fight or drag him back into his past only exacerbates Saiki's medic habits. Like, he always used to carry bandages and alcohol wipes and antibiotic ointment, but had talked to just carrying bandages because a whole medkit had been annoying to carry and needless for an esper like him. Though, he had started carrying a bit more for Kaidou and Hairo when they become closer. (Saiki adds the antibiotic ointment back into his repertoire for Aren)
When they gets close enough and Aren invites them to his house is when the fun really starts. Kaidou and Nendo find Aren's baby album and look through it and everything. But Saiki spots a smaller album on the book shelf and is thinking "Better not show too many of these family albums to those two, who knows what we might see" trying not to think about the album collections documenting his parent's dates and stuff.
And when Aren comes back into the room the four are just vibing and hanging out, Aren even bought out some Coffee jelly as an offering thank you for coming ya introverted bean. So, even Saiki is in a pretty good mood. And then they hear the front door open and close with shuffling and stuff with a 'We're home, Hoodlum!' and Aren going to greet his parents like the totally good kid he is, and Saiki is like "??? That voice sounds kinda familar."
And whadduya know!
When Aren's mom turns around from putting stuff in the fridge, Saiki instanting recognizes her and its the same lady he helped all those years ago! I imagine its not a big dramatic moment but there is a "What a surprise" moment. And she's just like "Haha! Little Medic, you're friends with my brat, what a small world! I hope he's treating you and his other friends right."
And Aren is standing there after trying to introduce his friends like "What." Kaidou says "You know Saiki???? But he never leaves his house!" But Nendou is the one to be like "Wow, Aren's Mom, how do you know my buddy?"'
To which Aren's Mom says briefly that Saiki used to get discounts from the stores near her hangouts (Rough part of town, but great prices for stingy child espers) and how he used to help her and some of her girls. Aren is over here dumbfounded, and Kaidou is just like, "wouldn't he have been like, six, a decade ago??" That Saiki pointedly does not confirm.
But Saiki and Aren's mom are over here just casually talking while all the other teenagers are standing there, bewildered. Like, Aren is over here being like "Hold on, I thought Saiki was a goody-goody, He knows my mom?!?" Meanwhile:
Aren's Mom: How's that brother of yours?
Saiki: Moved to Britain and is still a sore loser.
Aren's Mom: Haha, good to know he's not bothering ya! So, how's my little hoodlum doing in class? Not being a brat is he?
Saiki in a true show of open candidness: If he was a bother, he wouldn't still be in my class.
And Kaidou and Aren are nearly shitting their pants from this being like "SAIKI?????" with it just completely flying over Nendo's head.
Then, the rest of the hang out is Aren's Mom sharing stories of tiny Aren while Saiki is eating more Coffee Jelly
Releasing another 4k words of comedy [featuring a fic doodle as propaganda]. Shrimpo tries to apologize, but he is the world's unluckiest man.
With A Glitch In Time coming out, the Phandom is seeing new, GOOD, content for the first time in a long time.
New content brings in new people.
These people do not know Phandom conventions. Heck, even people who've been around a while but just haven't jumped into the deep end don't know a lot of conventions.
This includes people who come in and see DPxDC crossover content and want to be involved.
Passive-aggressive posts about how people "need to follow the agreed-upon rules" about posting and tagging are just going to make people feel guilty about posting "wrong" and not feel like they're welcome to join in and interact. Please be patient with people just joining in, or coming back from a long time away. Not everyone is in the Discord or wants to be in the Discord.
There is a lot of dpxdc content. So much that it clogs up the normal tags like "dp", "dc", "danny phantom", etc.
So, a general fandom consensus has been agreed upon that such crossover content should be tagged dpxdc (and/or dcxdp), and not the general fandom-only tags, to help keep from clogging people's tag tracking.
Note: you do need to make the tag without spaces for it not to show up in the other tags.
Reminder that, as per the Danny Phantom x DC discord stated rules, the official tag that the crossover fandom operates under is DPxDC with NO spaces. This is because Tumblr filters do a bad job when it comes to spaces and often get confused.
If you wish to participate in the dpxdc fandom, please tag all your content accordingly, and avoid using the DC tag and the Danny Phantom tag. This is because the dpxdc fandom entirely overpowers the danny phantom fandom in sheer numbers alone, and it is in fact so big with so much lore that it's really a separate entity from both DP and DC. And tagging properly reduces unwanted flooding to the separate fandoms.
If you have any questions, please refer to this awesome tagging guide made by @ectoentity about the dpxdc fandom and tags. And as mentioned previously, there is a huge DPxDC discord server you can join if you're interested. You can DM the mod-operated blog for an invite: @batpham-discord-highlights (all the mods for this server are awesome, real tea)
have fun!
