Was thinking abt scythes just now and you know what's a really good and functional fictional scythe? Harbinger

For those that don't know, Harbinger is a weapon from rwby, a show that follows "rule of kewl" when it comes to the weapons, meaning every weapon has an over the top transformation sequence, and is also a gun. Harbinger is wielded be Qrow, a drunkard whose semblance (superpower) is bad luck, and is a gun-sword-scythe combo. The weapon said to be inspired by Harbinger is so impractical, even from an impractical scythe sense

Like jesus christ. Anyways, Harbinger is (semi) practical because it looks like this:

... And does this:

If you'll notice, during that transformation, that little red bit that pops out it's the inside blade, meaning Harbinger is double edged. Additionally, the blade curves down far, unlike Cresent Rose, meaning the top edge can be used in a practical way, instead of having to extend Harbinger out and bring it towards you. Contrariliy, Cresent Rose had a double edged tip, and a straighter edge, meaning Ruby has to swing at an enemy with enough precision to hit the edge, like so;

(The blade rotates so she can swing backwards) or do what was previously mentioned, and pull back, like so:

Note: Cresent Rose can turn into a glaive, put that doesn't seem relevant because she only uses it at high speeds

All in all, Harbinger is probably the best scythe, even though scythes are horribly impractical for anything other than farming and looking cool.

Phobia/trigger warning under the cut

So, you know spiders man, right?

He's a conglomerate of radioactive spiders that ate Peter Parker, and gained his memories and personality, including the inspiration to be a hero, and uncle Ben's quote. He became Spiders Man and did standard Spider-Man shit with a side of killing, yada yada, don't quote me. He was recruited by the Superior Spider-Man of 616 to fight the Inheritors. But my question is, how would he wear a watch? Would he wear it on his arm, or would the spiders all individually have a watch and they would travel independently, or would he have to buddy up with someone who has a watch?

Let's talk about the Box Ghost

He's a minor nuisance to Danny, with the normal invisibility, intangibility, and flight, but he's also got control over boxes. He's got an obsession with them. Some might say... an Obsession. Boxes, as well as warehouses (as you usually find him there), link to his Obsession, or reason he's a ghost. He wears overalls, a beanie, and gloves, which indicates he was a warehouse worker. His death might have been a work-related accident, as his clothes indicate he was at work when he died. Now, why does that sound familiar? Worked in a warehouse with boxes, and died most likely to unsafe working conditions. There's only one explanation. He was an Amazon worker. Thanks Jeff Bezos, for the most memorable and annoying recurring claim villains in Danny Phantom
