The more I think about Gorsky, the more I want a WoD sit-com where a vampire runs a business and all of his employees are supernatural creatures, but they all think they're the only supernatural weirdo and everyone else is a mortal.

Cue the Masquerade/Veil covering shenanigans as they all scramble to keep their colleagues from discovering that anything strange is afoot.

Part II

[discordiansamba]

it will probably be a long time before I get around to a kintsugi update, but y'all can have this snippet that's been sitting in my WIPs since (checks hand) two years ago.

"So… we meet again… my greatest nemesis." "Yun, can you stop being dramatic for five seconds and help us load the rest of the luggage?" Xia-Su asked, pulling out a pack and handing it to the servant waiting to claim it. "Nonsense," Yun said, "-I can be dramatic and help out." "Well get on it, then." Xia-Su said. "Also, doesn't boats being your greatest nemesis imply the existence of other enemies?" Zuko asked, handing a pack to Yun. "It could," Yun said cryptically, even as he accepted the pack, "-I have a life outside the manor." "Yeah," she said, a knowing grin on her face, "-I'm sure you do."

I went to see The Play That Goes Wrong today, and it was spectacular!!

[comicgeekscomicgeek]

-the Titans are over at Wayne Manor-

Beast Boy: -looking at the different Wayne portraits- So, Rob, which one of these guys is Stately Wayne?

Robin: …what?

Beast Boy: You know, the guy who’s house this was first. Gotta be, right? Stately Wayne’s manor?

Raven: …

Cyborg: …dude.

Starfire: I am not even from this planet and I know that is not the right.

got inspired by a fic i read the other day, but didn't quite hit the right spots for me so. time to write out a new wip idea

The concept of that fic really grabbed me - Jason and Tim having a bodyswap the same day Jason wakes up in his coffin, at a point after Tim had already visited Bruce and Alfred with his insistence that Batman needed a Robin - but for what I was thinking, by the time Jason convinces Bruce and Alfred of who he is, Tim's already started to dig himself out of the coffin. And when the three of them show up at the cemetery, the grave's empty.

Tim would be catatonic and go through much of the same stuff canon Jason went through before being found and dunked in the Pit. He'd end up enduring the whole League of Assassins shtick that canon Jason went through while at the same time Jason is dealing with Tim's regular person life. Both of them struggled a bit trying to imitate the other, but they managed- Tim with not much issue considering no one in the LoA was close to Jason, and Jason trying to manage Janet Drake's clearly growing concern every time he slips up.

Like, imagine Tim, desperately trying to imitate what he knows of Jason from watching Robin on the streets and seeing Jay in a few galas here and there. And one day, Talia tries to tell him he'd been quickly replaced to get him to finally listen and Kill Somebody/accept he was staying with the League until they deemed him fit to leave.

And Tim looks at a picture of himself, hanging around the front yard of Wayne Manor with Bruce, Alfred, and Dick. Another picture showing himself in an ill-fitting Robin uniform on a rooftop and seemingly getting lectured by Batman, who looms in front of him.

And he says "I'm not buyin' it."

Somehow convinces Talia that he's not convinced that the Tim in the photo (who is probably Jason and thank god, Tim was really worried about what happened to Jason's mind- or rather, his own body; he didn't actually consider Jason coming back to life until now) and she arranges a short trip for him to Gotham to see for himself.

Tim really struggles the next two days to keep up the Jason act, but he's pretty sure Talia and the others were just chalking it up to nerves at seeing his family again and the "newest addition".

When he finally gets to Gotham, he doesn't bother being stealthy. He doesn't have the skills- no matter how much Ra's and Talia's goons have been trying to beat it into him- and even if he did, he doubted he'd be able to sneak away from his own teachers that were stalking him from the shadows.

So he does his best to be casual. Walks straight towards Wayne Manor, and when he can actually start to hear his assassin stalkers the tiniest bit as he approaches the gate- a sign they're getting really restless- he decides now or never and bolts the rest of the way.

He thinks, if he had come sooner to Gotham, he would've tried fitting through the gaps in the bars- as if he was still 13 and small enough to fit- but as it is, Tim's spent 6 months in this body and he's not going to make that mistake.

Instead he slams a hand on the buzzer and says as fast as he can, "it's Tim! Tim Drake! There's assassins, open the gate!"

He has a heartstopping moment when nothing happens- when there's no answer and the ninjas are getting closer and closer and- And then it opens and Tim doesn't stop with his relief, he runs.

The door is opened not by Mr. Pennyworth, but by Bruce himself, a belt clipped around his waist, but entirely in sleepwear. He has something in his other hand and as he yells, "duck!" Tim can only think it's some kind of bomb and dives for the ground.

He was sort of right. It was a smoke bomb. He heard and smelled it hissing away behind him, and saw the cloud of smoke in his peripheral vision.

Bruce wasted no time running past him and barking, "Follow Alfred to the cave!" Tim took a moment to just breathe, feeling much more safe with Batman fighting to protect him. When Bruce looked back at him through a spot in the smoke, he yelled, "Go!"

Tim scrambled to obey, trying to run and stand and awkwardly doing both to get in the home. Mr. Pennyworth was just inside the foyer, out of sight of the windows, now that Tim noticed, and holding a shotgun.

He was also wearing a fluffy blue bathrobe and fuzzy pink bunny slippers.

Tim blinked. "Uhhh,"

"Come along, Master Tim. We must be quick."

He didn't protest and followed him down to the Cave, where Jason in Tim's body sat waiting at the Batcomputer.

Man, I'm not completely sure on the timing, but imagine Tim finally getting back into his body and it's- he's taller than he used to be, bulkier too. And there are reflexes and muscle memory stuff he doesn't remember at all, but now just has.

He- he was Robin. Or, his body at least, and he felt like it. But he never was Robin. Not really. He never got a proper outing, never even received Bruce's official approval for it.

It was strange. And not totally a good strange.

He thought about the body he had. He didn't have a lot of love for it- puberty would do that to anyone- but it was his. And that saying about not knowing what you have until you lose it? Yeah.

Tim felt like crying.

Obviously the highest levels of Gotham are allowing the Joker to continue his reign of terror, what with his constant escapes and such, clearly well connected. He, or his family, must have deep ties in city hall and the police department.

Similarly the Joker seems to have a never ending supply of chemicals, bombs, and other materials of mayhem, which would require substantial funding. He must exceedingly wealthy, enough to buy the weapons of slaughter. Maybe even a science division to create new venom.

The Joker is repeatedly beaten up by Batman, yet always manages to recover. Consider who always seems to have injuries from 'skiing accidents', always treated by the finest (and most private) doctors money can buy.

See the tight and revealing outfit of the well known accomplice of the Joker: Harley Quinn, outfits that a playboy would appreciate.

The Joker has often made public attacks at major events for Gotham elites. But one man always seems to slip away from the crowd.

Finally there is the matter of motive. Clearly some trauma triggered the insanity of the Joker. Mayhaps the murder of his parents before his very eyes?

Bruce Wayne is the Joker.

QED.

wound up watching all of the haunting of hill house the last couple days and...

so, mike flanagan isn't necessarily for me. his dialogue writing tends to be a bit too stilted for me to wholeheartedly embrace.

but... it's BAD in hill house. it's SO bad. not being shirley jackson isn't a sin. adapting it like this was going to leave me a bit cold no matter what.

but adapting it like this gives it breathing space from a novel that's a tall order for adaptation. breathing space i think is necessary both for what it's trying to do and for probably 99.9% of people asked to adapt it.

and then they put it. back in. the monologues aren't for me, but they aren't a deal breaker. and again, it isn't a sin to not be shirley jackson.

but then every so often someone reads a big chunk directly out of the book. and suddenly all the serviceable to good dialogue surrounding it burns down. even if i liked it better than i do... why would you do that to yourself?
