“Oh What Radicalized You?”

Please spread

A B

i lied, put your clothes back on. i’m gonna make you watch the 1992 Newsies movie and explain to you why jack and davey should’ve been the romance instead of jack and sarah, and how sarah could’ve and should’ve been more than just a love interest if they weren’t cowards

Okay so I love the book “daughter of the the deep” by Rick Riordan so here’s a balls to the wall headcanon

So with the main plot of the book being about a descendent of captain Nemo and how he made this ship that survived so long with a bunch of crazy tech

what if captain Nemo was a son of Hephaestus that fell in love with a son or daughter of Poseidon

Also yes I did check the dates and the book 20,000 leagues is set in 1866 so say this happened a while before the book there would be no promise for the big three not to have kids so it’s works

Hear me out Gotham is how the foundation contains all of it

this is the same anon who asked about the scp foundation

yeah that’s basically it: secure contain protect. There’s a bunch of creatures and monsters they capture and hold to protect other people (though they also sacrifice employees for experiments so “protect” is debatable)

The reason I’m bringing it up though, is bc they would absolutely be interested in Talon and Fae Dick. And not in a good way.

There’s been instances with sentient scps (such as 105, who can essentially reality bend via photos) where the foundation would capture them even if they weren’t going to harm anyone. And I kept thinking. Fae Dick doesn’t exactly HIDE what he is, and Talon Dick doesn’t exactly resemble a normal human with the glowing eyes and pale skin.

(Gotham in general could probably be considered an SCP though, I’m pretty sure it’s canonically cursed)

Ksksk I immediately thought about the last point with Gotham being cursed because— that city has a canonical SECOND Gotham (Gotham Below) underneath it (sealed off but still). And I mean— Lazarus Pits, Man-Bats, freaky Bird cults…. The SCP foundation would have one heck of a time trying to contain all of THAT particular crazy ksksks.

But yes I can see your point! But both Talon!Dick and Fae!Dick have enough of a support system (ie Titans, JLA, the BATMAN(!) (yes he’s his own warning ksksks)…) that locking them up… might work. Just not for very long. And in doing so would bring down the combined forces of earth’s superhero community on their heads. Something not in the interest of the foundation I reckon 👁️

However, maybe they could enter into a sort of ceasefire? Like, they leave Gotham‘s “crazy” alone (turn a blind eye) and in return they provide some scientifically relevant data for their research?
