Steddie Drabble, TW: child abuse.

Initially, Wayne doesn’t care for Steve. Calls him “the Harrington boy” or “Richard’s son” with contempt, asks if “Richard’s son” is coming over for dinner again and Eddie just rolls his eyes and says “yes, Wayne, STEVE is coming over at 7.” Wayne doesn’t like him because…well, he’s not stupid to judge a book by its cover, he thinks.

But the fifth time Harrington comes over, he brings a bouquet of flowers, and Eddie, well, his cheeks are redder than the spaghetti sauce Wayne’s been stirring, so that’s something.

And then the sixth time Steve comes over, he brings Wayne a Garfield magnet. It’s small, “found it at the thrifty mart with Robin, I’m sorry it’s not brand new…” Steve mumbles, and Eddie is wide eyed and smiling, and Wayne LOVES Garfield. He puts it on the fridge, pats Steve on the back, says “um, thank you son.”

They fall into a pattern, the three of them. Steve comes over for dinner every Friday night after work. He dresses clean and is polite to Wayne, helps with the dishes, sometimes brings bread rolls or licorice or beer or jokes. Eddie starts setting the table. Wayne starts laughing at the jokes. After Steve leaves, Wayne knows Eddie smiles himself to sleep. It’s different, now.

And then the next time Steve is supposed to come over for dinner, he doesn’t show. Eddie had been making macaroni and cheese all evening, grating the cheese carefully as he bopped his head to some metal song, cheerful, and then it was 7 and then it was 8 and then Wayne thought “maybe call him, Ed.”

Nobody answers. When they call again, nobody answers. And Wayne has a bad feeling about it.

It isn’t until almost 11, dinner cold and Eddie pacing, about to radio someone named Robin when Steve’s car pulls up, they know the lights so well. They run outside to greet him and Eddie freezes when Steve starts falling out of the drivers seat, face dark and pained. Wayne jumps into action. Wayne catches Steve and hauls him into the trailer, his living room, and oh god, he’s covered in bruises like he was put through Eddie’s cheese grater, and oh god, Eddie’s broken out into tears behind him.

Steve’s left eye is swollen shut, and his face is purple and bloody. His lip is split and his hair is wild, his shirt is torn, and Wayne wonders what’s underneath the shirt as he gets the first aid kit, wonders how the hell he thought Steven was anything other than an angel.

Eddie gets a dish towel wet in the kitchen and cleans Steve’s face, quiet and crying, and Wayne sets the first aid kit down next to Eddie and makes some coffee. He thinks about talking, doesn’t. Touches the Garfield magnet for good luck. He feels like maybe Steve needs it.

Steve who is holding Eddie’s wrist as he cleans him up, wincing and crying from his good eye. Finally, after a silence that gives Wayne heartburn, Eddie sits back on his heels and says whisper quiet, “your dad?”

Steve gulps, blinks. “My uh, my dad. I was writing you uh, uh a love note.” Eddie looks over at Wayne. Wayne wipes his brow. “But uh, he found it, and your name’s not uh, Edith” Steve lets out a chuff, winces again. “So he asked what was going on, and I told him. I told him. And then he said I had one minute to take it back or he’d make me take it back.” Eddie lets out a small gasp, more like a howl, and sits completely on the floor. Wayne sits down at the table, cold mac and cheese looking like a sick joke. And he’s so mad. Wayne is so, so mad, seeing this young man who so obviously loves his pride and joy, shares in his pride and joy, who brings him apples to make apple pie, he growls out

“Don’t you worry about a thing, Steven, not one thing. You stay here long as you like, hell, don’t leave. We got you, boy.”

And that’s that. Steve crumples in on himself, and Eddie pulls him into a big hug, just holds him, rocks him, coos “a love note, huh, sweetheart? For me?” And Steve nods until he nods off.

The next morning, while Robin takes care of Steve, Wayne and Eddie break into Steve’s room, clear out everything he owns, and slash his dad’s tires. That was Wayne’s idea - the least he could do for a loved one.

I’m tempted to start making American Psycho video essays because at this point the YouTube selection for our fandom is limited to one of the following:

1) American Psycho Ending (Explained Like I’m 5)

2) IS PATRICK BATEMAN A PSYCHOPATH OR A NARCISSIST? — TikTok Psychologist Weighs In

3) How to Dress Like Patrick Bateman as a High School Freshman

4) Patrick Bateman sigma phonk edits compilation (i’m literally him) 🐺🥶🗿🔥

one thing i find interesting is readers always ask for part 2,3,4 etc for fics they enjoy, but when writers actually decide to write multi part fics no one wants to read them

i think that if we take ra's' ecofascist motives and extrapolate it to damian should've been raised with that rhetoric, post some time in the batfam Damian should insist they stop using private jets and therefore we should get to see bruce and damian flying like regular people.

Jaykon who meet each other as Tim's exes and hate each other (but like in a super chemistry sparks flying way) and end up hooking up somehow and idk Jason's just easier for Kon to start to get along with when a cock in his cunt mellows him out 😌

And ALSO maybe it's fun and games when Jason's all bark and no bite when it comes to flirting but Kon is all bite no bark so it escalates quickly and maybe afterwards when Jason's curled into Kon's side and kon's running his fingers through his curls they find out they have more in common than they thought and actually Kon's into the bravado now that he's had a taste Don't mind me just dumping thoughts 🤪💖 I always love what you think about them

been thinking about this SO MUCH since you sent it; apologies that it's taken so long!!

but godddd i love this so much

jason flirting with kon because it's one of his favorite ways to throw people off or distract them when they actually flirt back. except kon responds and he's *serious* about it, and jason can't back down *now*

and it escalates until kon has jason pinned underneath him; TTK holding him in place. and jason---at least in my headcanon xD---is SO into it; he loves being manhandled. and it's rough and messy and they're both still snarking at each other until they just CAN'T anymore. (and kon covers jason in marks and jason can't return the favor but he *tries* all the same xD)

and then neither of them feels like going anywhere so they end up curled together like you said; touches turned gentle, because as much as jason aggravates kon, kon doesn't really want to *hurt* him, and then they start actually *talking* and they find the other isn't so bad, really. again like u said xD

and so they keep seeing each other maybe <3 and i think it would be really fun if they like. start dating without noticing 😂

anywayyy i didn't have much to add, it's a fantastic concept!!

am I the only one who finds myself getting more attached to bucktommy and Tommy himself the more people push against it or

so anyway here’s my rushed hagakure outfit redesign. bc if they can make mirio a suit that fits his quirk why the fuck are they letting her get hypothermia

the leg+arm warmers are shiny so she’s visible when she wants to be(i.e. school events, team exercises) i imagine it helps with her whole reflection thing as well

I do not think there’d be EddieTmmy lovers the way there is for BT, just my thoughts when I thought about it for a while but I think the racism would play out differently: “Eddie as horrible for not seeing poor baby uwu Buck” vs “ew racist Tmmy Eddie get better standards Bucks right there” type of vibes, I think they’d still be shitting on Eddie in defence of Buck and making Buck out to a poor pure baby who is too good for Eddie anyway

u are actually so right and u should say it louder. the amount of hate towards eddie is ever increasing, and in general there is nothing the narrative can do to make people stop hating on him, just like how there is almost nothing that it can do for people to stop the "buck can do no wrong" perspective. there is no right way to move, because every direction leads back to eddie hate. its unwinnable and this should be studied more i fear.

here's a thought no one asked for:

but what if the fake memory in the garage was actually what Rick WISHED he'd done instead. He wished he turned down Prime's offer to travel the universe and develop portal tech.

What if he'd actually jumped on the opportunity.... leading to the biggest regret and shame of his life lol id cover that shit up too lol

Akechi would probably get really low marks on his essays at school (if the way they're marked is anything like how they were marked in my school anyway) despite being well-read and knowing about the source material.

He would reach the word count easily, but I think he'd have trouble staying on topic and would ramble about irrelevant details. Idk about other schools but in mine you'd get marked down for exceeding the word limit, which is definitely a problem he would run into. I think he'd find it hard to make the essay read well from beginning to end with a conclusion and everything.

happy wip wednesday everyone here’s a snippet of this a quick little roy ficlet i was working on!

“Keeley, who eventually realized like everyone else that Roy—plain, simple, clingy, needy, unbearable Roy—wasn’t worthy of that kind of love.

He had convinced himself he’d never find that kind of love again. That comfort, that safety, that closeness. A person who loved him not because he was Roy Fucking Kent, but just because he was Roy. He had convinced himself being just Roy would never really be enough for anyone. But then there was Jamie.”
