I Just Got Sour Cream On My Blanket!

I just got sour cream on my blanket!

You guys have no idea the absolute devastation!

Worse news: I'm not inside. They put me in a wind tunnel....

I can't sleep and the near constant notifications from Tumblr aren't helping.

(No, I can't turn my phone on vibrate because too many people in my family are sick and I'm the only one who wakes up to my phone ringing more than I do my own alarm)

So, I've given up sleeping for the night. I have to wake up in like...two hours anyway. (Shift starts at 4, we leave the house no later than 3:15, my alarm goes off at 2:00 so I have time to get ready)

I've been awake since 11:15 May 1st with only a three hour nap on May 2nd. My shift is 15 hours (4:00 to 19:00)

I've got a Mountain Dew, a Powerade, and 2 Rockstar to keep me awake for the shift (and food)

...sigh

At least the pay's decent. Our highest paying venue at $16 and hour

Here's a thing I thought of that I haven't seen.

So, Duke's got awesome powers, I'm totally jealous. I don't understand them very well, but from what I've gotten from fanon is that he can see a light everyone/thing gives off at all times.

Now, in case y'all didn't know, humans glow. We can't see it because we glow brightest at noon, and it's literally outside of our scope of perception like shrimp colours.

Every time I see Duke encounter Danny in a crossover, Duke usually describes Danny as glowing brighter than anyone he's seen. And then that amplifies when Danny goes ghost.

But the dead don't glow.

I know Danny is both alive and dead, but what if Danny didn't glow at all? What if Phantom glowed brighter than Duke can actually perceive because ghosts aren't usually meant to be seen by the living, but everyone else can see him glow because all ghosts glow on a visa le spectrum.

Imagine Danny and Duke meet and Duke freaks out because this kid doesn't glow. There's no light reflecting off of him or being produced by him. Duke has to actively restrain himself from checking Danny's vitals because the only things that don't glow are dead. And even then, light should reflect off of him anyway but it doesn't.

Works best with Space Core Danny

And then Duke meets Phantom and literally can't look at him because he's so bright. Or, his body reacts defensively and makes sure he can't see Phantom's glow because it hurts him. There's no light reflecting off of Phantom, but he is producing his own light. Like a black hole.

And when it's revealed that Danny and Phantom are the same being? Duke loses his shit because now the two contradictions are actually one contradiction! Like four racoons in a trench coat, but so much more concerning.

Hello. I couldn't find you DP/DC story on AO3. Have you not added it? Or is it under a different author name?

It's not up on ao3 yet. I'll announce here when I cross post them over, though😸

Shitty day just got shittier.

I had a job interview a few days ago. Someone from the company told me to apply, so I did. Everyone in my family was basically expecting that I'd get it.

They just sent me the rejection email.

I don't get off for another hour and twenty minutes.

I don't know how to process emotions. How the hell am I supposed to tell my parents that the job they basically expected I'd get turned me down?

It's supposed to rain tonight.

They won't cancel the game for anything.

If lightning strikes within a certain distance, then they'll postpone for a bit, but they won't cancel. There will be a game tonight.

I hope lightning doesn't strike too close. I'm in a primarily metal shack and have no car.

.....

Will I get powers if this box gets struck?

It'd suck if I didn't.

...

What power would I get? Probably something like The Flash. That wouldn't be too bad. I'd rather have shape shifting, though.
