#BECAUSE of Ollie

[lionwitch]

Ok, hear me out. An AU where Janet Drake is best friends with Lex Luthor, Bruce Wayne and Oliver Queen.

They met in school, and she's a high society girl, not expected or allowed to be much more than a pretty face, but there's this trio of smart idiots (they did all sorts of stupid stuff at school, but they are overall very, very smart), and they're in all sorts of cool classes and extracurriculars, and she wants to learn

So, she snakes her way into the group with well-timed looks and blushes. They eventually include her in all their activities, and so she learns all sort of stuff that she usually wouldn't be allowed to learn, because they help her keep it in the down low. No, she's not taking classes with them, she's being a proper lady and cheering her smart friends on through the oh-so-hard classes.

At some point or another, they all develop a crush on her, fleeting as it may be (they're hormonal teens and they're required to flirt, it was bound to happen)

They flirt publicly, as it keeps the media from pressuring them into relationships— or so they thought. It backfires when they're adults, the media is demanding Janet settle down and stops leading all three of them on. But there would be a scandal if she picked any of them, so she picks Jack, someone who doesn't love her or she loves, but someone desperate enough to climb the social ladder to care if he loves his wife.

When he's not allowed to flirt anymore, that's where Bruce realizes that he actually liked her.

When Tim comes along, and Janet has to go on trips, she leaves him with her trusted friends. So, Tim learns a lot from his Uncle Lex, learns to shoot a bow from his Uncle Ollie, and loves staying with his Uncle Bruce and his children. He figures him out far too easily and does become Robin when Jason figures he's ready to pass on the mantle to his little brother (because they're brothers. Tim spends a lot of time in their house)

Bruce adores Tim, he really does. It just kinda hurts, that he's Janet's kid, but not his.

Eventually, Janet divorces Jack, and she gets to spend a lot more time in Gotham. But by now Tim is as much Bruce's as he is Janet's, so they co-parent the gremlin that is her son, which leads to a lot of time with Bruce.

Bruce treats her better than Jack ever did, and she trusts him far more. They have the memories of years together. Eventually, Bruce tells her the truth— that he never truly moved on from his best friend.

When they marry, sure it's a media circus, but also not a surprise.

She's also a good mom, to Tim as much as to Dick or Jason.

When Jason finds out Catherine is not his mom, sure he gets curious, but he has a mom already, he's happy. He does want to meet his bio mom, but he agrees to do so safely, not go alone. Fine, B, you can come with.

Joker never happens. Jason is disappointed when he finds his mom is not at all what he expected, and he has a much better one at home.

Eventually, when Damian comes into the picture, he's snappy with Janet. "you will never be my mother, you harlot!" but Janet simply puts a hand on his shoulder and speaks calmly, yet sharp as the blade he threatens her with

"You will not speak to me like that, boy. No, I am not your mother. But I am married to your father, and I hold the authority as such, so you will go up to your room, you will cool down, and you will never threaten or insult me again, or you will be grounded."

"You can't do that!"

"She can. She has my full permission to discipline my kids, Damian. In this house, she holds as much authority as I do." Bruce interjects

Damian, begrudgingly, learns to respect Janet, and eventually he does see her as a second mom

The amount of times Oliver or Lex visit the Wayne-Drake household is absurd, but sue them, they like their friends. This leads to a lot of chaos, because every time Oliver visits so does Roy, and Roy hangs out with Dick and Jason, while Damian sticks to glaring at everyone.

Meanwhile, they dote on Tim, because they sure as hell have a favourite nephew, and it's the one they watched grow inside the belly of one of their best friends, the one they all changed the diapers of, the one they've taught a lot of skills to, the one they helped raise in a way they never helped raise any of the other Wayne boys. They don't even try to hide their preference. Now, of course they like all their nephews, but it's always hilarious because when Tim is around his uncle Lex, he's ten times the evil mastermind he generally is, and Oliver encourages it, simply for the chaos, and so does Janet, while Bruce is downright terrified of the idea of Tim as a villain (everyone is)

Jason and Roy arguing after meeting up on a mission by chance and having to work together:

Roy: You're insufferable

Jason: You wanna kiss me so bad it's making you look stupid

Roy: Yes I do!

Jason, who flirts with anyone as banter while he does morally grey crimes but is actually really insecure about emotional and physical closeness: what

Roy, who thinks Jason looks very attractive while committing said morally grey crimes: what

How is everyone forgetting the VERY first Dislyte characters to be this dynamic?! It's obviously Ollie and Anita from the very first Dislyte event The Lone Star. I will die on this hill.

WHO and who is the Dislyte universe?

Ollie has definitely made it his mission to make all of the Green Lanterns of Earth try his infamously spicy chili. The GLs in turn have made it a tradition to not warn each new member of their group before they eat it for the first time.

Hal: complains about the spice level all the time but has developed a tolerance after years of friendship with Ollie

Guy: dies every time but is too stubborn to admit defeat, even as his face turns the same color as his hair

John: genuinely enjoys the stuff and asked Ollie for the recipe to share with his mom

Kyle: tried it once and thought he was going to die, will make any excuse to avoid eating it again. Roy and Connor give him so much shit for this

Simon: can handle the heat without any trouble, he just doesn't like chili in general

Jessica: doesn't think it's spicy enough and will dump extra hot sauce on top. Lian is in awe

Jo: unbothered by the spice but told Ollie that it tasted burnt

I think your time on the island fucked up your taste buds Ollie

I feel like the Batman/Green Arrow rivalry could be expanded upon in fanon more than just "both rich asshole vigilantes"

Here are some topics they could compete on:

Who has the best kids

Batman "I could never kill people my moral code is as rigid as the stick up my ass" vs Green Arrow "literally everyone including me has killed at least once. (Excluding Connor and Cissie)

Philanthropist Bruce Wayne vs. Politictian Oliver Queen on who is doing more for the community

Bruce "was always rich" Wayne vs. Oliver "Loses his money so often idk if he's currently rich in comics or not" Queen

There are loads of things for them to fight about!

A treatise on Ollie Reeder's hair (because this account is for talking about the important things in life)

Look at this guy in S1e1 - very fluffy hair, very nice. Short hair even, because he's young, because he doesn't know anything yet, not really, because he's not got his curls whispering unprincipled political careerism in his ears.

Here he is, falling into Malcolm's web (i.e. actually getting somewhere in his career) in S2e1. He is nervous, he is doubtful, he is upset, and he is human. And his hair looks a bit like he's been dragged through a bush backwards, which is always nice.

But look at him in hospital, at his most vulnerable ever this season, and HIS HAIR IS SOFT AGAIN. Yes, he's resorted to horrific betrayals in the service of Malcolm Tucker's goals (really Ollie???), and he left morals and principles several miles back, but he IS human. He is horrendous and awful and terrible and human, because evil and humanity are not mutually exclusive.

And here he is, at the end of series 4, and he's becoming the job Malcolm, and his hair is more changed than should be humanly possible, because now he's not just immoral, he's gone.

Everything about him that hurt and that pined and that cared has been ripped out of him, discarded to be replaced with ambition and ascension and insipid obfuscation, and even worse than that, he's put gel in his hair.

Seriously, the real arc of The Thick of It was the slow descent in Ollie's hairstyle quality.

listen I know it’s kind of corny and inaccurate to act like every single person in the dc universe knows each other and is besties but it IS endlessly funny to me to follow the web of connections and see how many degrees removed from each other everyone is.

like look at the arrowfam okay. ollie and dinah are together, ollie is homoerotic best friends with hal, dinah is homoerotic best friends with babs. roy is dating dick, has a kid with jade, and is basically an adoptive father to both grant emerson and rose wilson. connor is dating kyle and is constantly followed around by eddie fyers. mia is friends with a lot of the second gen teen titans kids, had an on-again-off-again thing going on with steph for a while, and is currently dating sienna. emiko is besties with courtney and some of the other recent teen titans. sin has a small army of protective aunts from the birds of prey. the real question is how far does it go before ollie puts a cap on the number of people who are invited to family brunch on sundays
