Hey this is an amazing idea! Do you have any fics exploring what would have happened if Steph lived/stayed Robin?

okay so this one was actually pretty tough so I found a couple that filled this prompt exactly & tossed in a few other fics that don't touch on war games but are set during her robin run. hope this works! sorry for the extremely long wait I have no excuses this time </3

Allegro Vivace, by Hinn_Raven (@secretlystephaniebrown). 4.8k, G, gen. summary: stephanie brown is never fired as robin, and that changes everything. my notes: exactly what the prompt is! this is a beautiful piece that glosses over wide swaths of time, zeroing in on intricate moments that betray a beautiful understanding of the characters.

the leaving is still the same, by CloudDreamer. 900, T, rape/noncon. summary: stephanie brown survives her encounter with the black mask. the thing about living is that you keep having to. my notes: this is immediate war games aftermath with steph surviving -- but is veryy hurty with no happy ending. I personally love this piece as a gorgeous exploration of steph's mental state, but if hurt no comfort isn't your cup of tea, I can respect you skipping this one.

CALMING NOTION, PERPETUAL IN MOTION., by orpheusaki (@damianbugs). 2.5k, G, gen. summary: what it means to be a legacy, even for those you don't wish to carry. my notes: okayy so we're getting into "not clearly a steph-lives au but we're in robin steph territory" but this was SUCH a lovely fic and despite my bravado I do love a good bruce-manages-to-communicate moment and I think the way robin is discussed as steph's and as a concept is lovely here I just love the weight of this

To Salvage One Sadness, by Nokomis (@nokomiss). 1.6k, G, gen. summary: dick had to hear secondhand that there was a new robin in gotham. my notes: ohhh boy I do love a fic originally posted in the mid 00s. anyway, again we're not in a steph-lives moment but we're set solidly during her run and given the complete lack of dick & steph interaction I live for any genuine moments of connection people manage to find them in fic. LOVE both of their characterization here

The ninth doctor was so insane fr he was like I watched my planet get destroyed and I can't share this trauma with anyone. I will fix this by befriending a human girl and taking her to see her planet get destroyed. This is normal behaviour.

also to give you an idea of just how badly the catholicism goes over my head i didnt get that the pool scene was baptism when i first read it because i thought baptism was only done by baptists.

i’m sorry but this is so fucking funny. baptism is only done by baptists and communion is only done by communists

through the noise and static and the call, by shipyrds (@burins). 4k, E, dinahbabs, 1/2. summary: dinah doesn't even know what the woman looks like. my notes: OHHHHHHHHHHH MY GOD!!!!!!! early bop pre-identity reveal dinahbabs is like my mortal weakness and OH MY FUCKING GODDDDDD.

By a Thread (Hanging On), by BingDragon. 1.4k, G, gen. summary: it’s winter in gotham, during the most dangerous time in the city’s history, and cass hasn’t been home for several days. my notes: NML FIC!!!!!! always such an underutilized in fandom event and by god this delivers!!! the babs and cass mother daughter dynamic UGH they make me so sick.... pun not intended lmaoo

Oracle of Jersey, by metroidspeedrun. 3k, T, gen, 2/?, graphic depictions of violence. summary: barbara gordon runs a podcast that results in six teenagers standing over a dead body. my notes: love!! the whole bop cast is here -- charlie, lori, ted! -- and that is always important to me.

"Oh but parents do have a right to control what their children eat. What if they just want to eat candy for every meal?"

Most parents can't even distinguish between random whims and autism dietary limitations and end up saying shit like this and starving their disabled children.

Second Place episode of Gamechanger feat the Aguefort staff aka Aguefort heaven is Porter hell. It’s a very efficient system

Bonus:

a lot of the popular "queerbait" ships are just "these two characters are friends / they stood close together once" but every once in a while i'll stumble into an unfamiliar ship tag and see shit like "in episode 169 Scrungko gives Blorbis multiple prostate orgasms with an anal vibrator while pretending to date him" and like. idk what the hell is going on there. but if it's not queerbait then they just invented something even more insane. maybe y'all are right sometimes.

"that's not dark romance that's just glorified abuse" what the hell do you think dark romance is then? Cuddling with the lights turned off? It tells you it will have dark themes in the fucking name. Yes it should be properly given an age rating in plain sight but other than that it's not actually hurting anyone. It's fucking fiction. "Well it's not romantic" They're in a romantic relationship. Even if it's an unhealthy one. Or a sexual relationship, but so far "dark sex" is not a trope.
