i haven't been able to get sky guardian buenos dias fuckboy out of my head ever since i saw it and ended up creating this long after once seeing this particular full art

Artistic rendition of the scare I just got in Skyward Sword

hey hey

so i remembered the wicked twisters were actually still alive(minus shoka and neku) during the long game, so danny might actually not notice rindo, fret and nagi. but he'll still totally notice beat, neku, shiki, shoka, and probably rhyme as dead-adjacent. right?

so i have a headcanon/au thing about neku while he was in shinjuku. he was able to use any psych, to the surprise of the people in charge, which, alongside surviving a whole month, gained him the reputation of a legendary player. but what if the pins just don't exist in shinjuku? the noise there aren't stable enough to drop any. no pins, no psychs.

so how was he supposed to defend himself against the Static Noise(they're made up of static and are pretty mindless)? he had no psychs, and not even a player pin. instead, he's able to use the powers of any psych he'd ever used before without pins. the powers are part of him, and this ability even follows him into the shibuya ug.

now how would this be integrated into a dp and twewy crossover?

this man has died twice, and was forced into an erased city. it still exists obviously so it had to have gone somewhere that isn't connected to earth.

it got plopped in its own negative space in the infinite realms, full of the shades of its citizens and one twice dead guy, filling him with ectoplasm. except, the city is in its own space, disconnected enough to not truly be part of the infinite realms.

neku and shinjuku are still connected to earth enough they can come back. but he was still twice dead in the ghost zone.

neku comes back to shibuya a halfa.

he's had three years to adjust to powers, so no one notices, not even him. he's never gone invisible or intangible because he never really needed to(and if it ever happened on accident, he just chocked it up to shinjuku being weird), and there are psychs that let you hover. he's basically been in purgatory, why wouldn't he come back strange? danny notices.

neku has an existential crisis over still being dead, if only halfway.

i wonder if anyone has ever made a danny phantom and the world ends with you crossover?

both series focus around death and how it affects people(moreso fanon in dp's case but i digress), so i think the concept of the infinite realms and the underground and real ground, plus the implied other layers(grounds?), could fit together nicely. infinite realms are called that for a reason after all, and a big reason why danny phantom (the concept) can crossover with so much other media.

and yes, obviously shibuya and illinois(?) are really seriously far apart, so how could the characters possibly interact? simple; the fentons go yokai hunting for the summer.

jack and maddie for some reason deduce yokai are real(debatable) and must be from the ghost zone. so they go on a vacation to japan to hunt them down, dragging their kids with them because it is a vacation after all.

through whatever circumstances, danny and jazz meet and interact with the twewy characters. danny definitely notes them as "dead-adjacent", while jazz clocks them as all needing serious therapy, which like "Yeah! We know! Our trauma is Special™!". but she has experience with dealing with her brother and his "death trauma"(which he vehemently denies having). also i think it would be funny if danny was able to bounce back and forth between the rg and ug, actively bullying reapers.

ellie could come too! she'd probably love making joshua's life hell (you go girl)

whether or not the drs fenton find actual yokai? who knows. danny probably.

Lost Light.

yeah

love it when half awake thoughts are actually pretty cool ideas

so in a lot of legend of zelda fanworks and aus i've found, the creator has link speaking in sign language which is pretty cool in my opinion

But that's got me thinking; what about the other denizens of Hyrule? Not all languages on earth use a universal sign language, so i imagine with such exaggerated diversity (completely different species) in Hyrule, they wouldn't either. Therefore I have come up with some vague-ish ideas of what the other peoples of Hyrule might use as a method of nonverbal communication. I'm using Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom as the base for this.

also note I'm not versed in sign language at all, so there will be mistakes.

I'll start simple, Gerudo.

The Gerudo people are most similar to Hylians in appearance, both are basically humans though they are treated as a different 'species' as far as I can tell. But it still makes sense to me that their sign would be most similar to Hylian sign, just some words might get a bit lost in translation.

Next up, Gorons.

Due to their bulkier appearance and larger hands, their sign might include their arms more prominently. Certain motions and swings might be dangerous for the other species, but other Gorons would be able to take an accidental hit. They do still use their hands and fingers, but less so than the more human-like species, and the motions would be more like a game of charades.

My favorite, Rito.

Due to their fingers also being feathers, Rito use their feet by tapping their claws, clenching toes, or stomping. For more complicated words they lower their wings so their feather-fingers are in view of the person already looking down and combine motions alongside their feet. Rito sign isn't very common however due to the difficulty of standing, signing, and focusing on what they're even trying to say without stumbling. It's even more difficult to understand while in the air. Only those with impeccable balance even bother unless necessary.

And finally, Zora.

If you look at the Zora's design, their gills are along/near the latissimus dorsi, an easy place to see both on land and in water. Due to this and how water can get extremely dark the further you dive, I imagine it would be pretty cool if the Zora could activate some sort of bioluminescence in their gills to flash in sequences similar to morse code. This would make it easy to see even underwater, and the ability to essentially shut the light off would keep them safe from underwater threats. This idea also comes from how I think it would be difficult to verbally communicate underwater and while swimming at fast speeds.

Like I said, I've limited this to botw/totk for simplicity's sake, but I know there's all sorts of different species in the other games, so it might be cool to explore their nonverbality one day.

when you see jolene on the map

"look at this stupid creature i'm about to conduct the most inhumane tests on"

smilo in a cone, whatever shall he do?
