The Justice League Dark caught wind of a cult trying to summon the Ghost King. A being with power so terrible and great, that all of the chaotic Infinite Realms feared him. A true tyrant. Long ago it took the effort of ghosts equal to gods to seal him away into a permeant slumber.
And now this cult wishes to wake him and bring him to the living realm. It was a race against the clock to find the ritual site and all members were called on board, magic or not. Even Constantine looked stressed.
They did find the site.
But it was too late, the ritual was completed. The entire inner circle of runes glowed before being swallowed in a column of green light. The air filled with static and a ringing that made Supergirl crumble to the ground.
The light dissipated, but there was no great figure or being of pure evil. Instead there was a boy, a teenager. He laid on the ground curled up in his sleep. He was a ghost no doubt, dressed in regal clothing.
Despite this when he stirred, everyone froze. It seemed the cold hard ground woke him up. He got up slowly and yawned, revealing his sharp fangs. Once sat up he opened his bleary eyes to look around. He looked confused and tired, really tired.
"Where am I?" He mumbled. "I was trying to get some sleep." Constantine internally screaming, latches onto that last sentence. He glances over to Batman. He caught that last part too. Batman approaches calmly and crouches down in front of the boy king. Hardening his resolve, Batman takes on a gentle tone.
"Hey kiddo, sorry we woke you. Lets get you back to bed yeah?" The boy nodded in agreement. He pulled himself to his feet before looking around in a circle. "Where did my blanket go?" He asked rather sadly. Batman is quick to shed his own cape and drape it over him. "You can borrow my cape until we get you a new one." He nodded again, pulling the black fabric around himself.
John quickly summoned a portal door, while Batman led the King through it. John threw looks around at everyone. Everyone could tell he was mouthing the words. 'Find me a fucking blanket now'
Running on the logic of getting the king away from Earth, away from graves and the undead, that could give him power. The portal led to the Watch Tower.
Batman took advantage of the King's bleary state to send a base wide alert for all noncritical members to evacuate immediately. With a priority that death adjacent members leave first. "The stars are pretty." Bruce looked at the boy staring out the window in wonder. He almost looked like a normal kid, almost.
"Yeah they are, it's pretty late so we should get you back to bed." He nodded, going along with Batman's gentle coaxing.
He takes the boy to an unused bedroom. Making sure the room isn't dusty and that lights are dimmed. He glances back to see about a dozen different leaguers all holding blankets, one thought to bring extra pillows. The bed was pretty barren with only a single pillow and a thin bedsheet. So Bruce took a thick duvet, one of the fluffier blankets and a second pillow from his team before shooing them away.
The boy ended up keeping his cape, mumbling how it was warm. He tucked the boy in, before quietly exiting the room and turning off the light. He was pretty sure the King fell back to sleep before he even reached the light switch.
After the door shut, he made direct eye contact with John. "Constantine." They needed to figure out what the hell was going on.
Just going ahead and putting this scene that was suddenly stuck in my head.
So like Danny is sleeping in that bedroom but then he suddenly awaken again cuz for some reason JL got attacked or like there was something at earth that needed the JL and for some reason Danny senses it or something.
Anyhow he goes over and saw Batman injured(it would've been any hero but since Batman was the one that tucked him he teleported or portaled to him)
Danny still sleepy because a bit aware because of the injuries Batman has.
He doesn't like people getting hurt so, while still sleepy tells the villain to apologize but the villain just laughed or mocked him.
The place suddenly went cold and frost gathered at Danny feet, his eyes glowing bright and menacingly.
"I. Said. APOLOGIZE."
The villain was suddenly on his knees breathing heavily.
The villain apologizes in a scared and paniced voice.
Then once Danny is sure Batman and the others r safe he fell asleep on top of Batman.
Pokemon headcanon that once Absol are studied and people realize they prevent disasters instead of causing them, particularly dangerous workplaces get themselves a workplace Absol and it also decreases accidents.
Construction sites and fishing ships and factories will have one that pretty much just lazes about until it just gets up howling one day and knocks a dude down. They almost never figure out what would have happened but they're always like "yes absol thank you absol I am so grateful to be on the floor right now. Can I offer you a treat in this trying time"
on May 5th, 2024, Pulitzer Prize winner and nationally acclaimed hip hop artist Kendrick Lamar Duckworth releases Not Like Us, the last in a series of scathing diss tracks against fellow artist Drake. fans of rap and hip hop immediately clock the track as Lamar's victory lap, so to speak, which. is absolutely deserved.
the song immediately becomes the biggest rap hit of the year and the definitive song of the summer. it's bumped worldwide at countless parties and the consensus is that Drake got so thoroughly demolished during this entire saga that he's never going to recover from this ever again
you see, not only does Lamar accuse Drake of being a pedophile several times during the track (which we have evidence for), he also literally calls him a colonizer. the standout lines in the track include "certified lover boy [name of one of Drake's albums], certified pedophile", "no you not a colleague, you a fuckin' colonizer" and my personal favorite, "tryna strike a chord and it's probably a minorrrrrrrr".
the song fucking slaps
kendrick has the entire world singing along to the Drake Is A Pedophile track
i cannot emphasize enough that this is so big that it escaped rap/hip hop containment and went worldwide. literally everyone is listening to this. it's crazy. (it probably doesn't help that kendrick took all copyright off the song.)
ANYWAYS so all that's going on. skip forwards a few months to today
i walk into my school's front office to look for something, as you do
while i'm waiting to talk to the lady at the front desk i notice a t-shirt hung up behind the counter
my school is selling official merch with the text "They Not Like Us" on the front for 25 bucks a pop
this is absolutely intentional.
the school is majority black (80%).
the people who designed this shirt knew exactly what they were doing when they made it.
drake is so THOROUGHLY OVER, apparently, that public schools in the U.S are selling OFFICIAL MERCHANDISE with lines from the hit song about how he's a racist pedophile on them
(this is fully legal, by the way. there are no copyright restrictions on the song for a reason.)
I don't want my cellphone to have AI I want it to have 3 days of battery time. I don't want my computer to have AI preinstalled I want it to have seven usb ports and high ram at affordable price. I don't want my games to have AI built levels I want them to be so optimized I could run them on a nokia.
While I'm sure a lot of people would agree with this post, I didn't mention any day of the week nor brought up color theory, so unless people take this reply as a challenge this is gonna be just another flop
