Me when I stayed up several nights in a row to read ASOTM because IT WAS JUST SO GOOD. Like bro I was invested and when it was over I was just sat there and turned off my phone like I needed a minute to recover.
bitches be like “this is the best piece of literature i have ever read” and it’s either a book that took them six weeks to finish or a fanfic they read at 3 AM

“It always feels a little wrong when people say that he’s a good kid, because he had so many years where he wasn’t. But when Dick says it (when the Bats say it) it feels like they mean it. Like they really think it could be true”
Hey Erin, if you wanted to kill me you could have just run me over with a car you didn’t have to absolutely DESTROY me with three sentences ;-;
trust that this WITH context is going to feel equivalent to me obliterating you, resurrecting you, and then obliterating you again

"This Song's For You" || Michael Jackson One-Shot
Imagine you are also a famous singer. You and Michael tried to be together but it didn't work out. One night at an award show, you sing a ballad that is about him. Michael looks on at you with regret.
Back at it again with another one-shot! lol Again, I did not to use gender/appearance defining characteristics but I did write this with a fem!reader in mind. However, as always, (Y/N) can be just about anyone ;)
Also the song (Y/N) sings is In Case by Demi Lovato - I'm not a songwriter so I couldn't think of any lyrics on the spot lol. This is also one of my favorite ballads. I recommend it!
It was 1980. You and Michael were both at your own levels of fame - him perhaps a bit more than you. You were up and coming and quite popular as you had an amazing voice for any ballad. Michael, of course, was a force all his own. He was not quite at his peak yet, but the fans were already chasing him and watching his every move. The two of you had had a budding winter romance toward the end of 1978 into 1979. Everyone thought that perhaps you were finally the one Michael was going to settle down with. All of his older siblings had pretty much all already married and had at least one child so far. Michael was getting old in terms of husband material - except he really wasn’t. Truthfully, both of you being 20 at the time of your relationship was young in the grand scheme of life. The both of you were also young and dumb for different reasons. Michael wasn’t taking your relationship as seriously as you thought he should. And you were a bit bratty and emotional sometimes still, which made the both of you clash. Not to mention the traveling - at this point in history there still wasn’t a great way to contact someone except for a phone call. Even then, you were at the mercy of them being home or near the phone to answer it. All this to say, things simply got to be too much and you broke up with each other. It was a bit of a dramatic spat that ended with you storming out and Michael trying to call you several times over the course of the next couple of weeks. Because of this, Michael recorded ‘She’s Out Of My Life’ for his album Off The Wall, which was released in August 1979. You also released an album near the end of that year, with your own heartbreak anthem on it.
The stage was set. January 1980 at the American Music Awards. You were both nominated and you were also going to be performing your hit song. You sat backstage as you waited for you to be introduced. You were never so nervous. This was the biggest event for you yet and your ex-boyfriend, in which the song you were about to sing was written about, was in the crowd. Talk about pressure! You walked over to the backside of the curtains. The makeup artist touched up your powder and made sure your hair was perfectly quaffed. You thanked them. Then suddenly:
“It’s my pleasure to introduce to the stage - (Y/N)!” The announcer said, pointing his hand toward you enthusiastically. He left the stage.
The lights dimmed. A single spotlight hit the stage where a single microphone stood. Your piano player began playing the ballad. You stepped out of the curtains as they opened and walked into the spotlight. You were wearing a tight black floor length dress adorned with shiny sequins and black gloves. Your jewelry was silver and bulky on your neck and wrists. The spotlight reflected these items and caught everyone’s attention, especially Michael’s. 
“Pictures in my pocket, 
All faded from the washer,
I can barely just make out your face,..” You began to sing. You tried not to scan the crowd for him. But it was no use. Your eyes locked with his as you got to the beginning of the course.
“I know, one day, eventually, 
Yeah, I know,
One day I’ll have to let it all go,...” You sang toward him before you looked away.
Michael looked down. He couldn’t bear to look at you and couldn’t bear to hear the words coming out of your mouth. He tried not to get emotional in front of the entire crowd but it was also no use. 
Then you belted out the next part of the song, using your beautiful and powerful voice to wow the crowd.
“In case, you don’t find what you’re looking for,
In case, you’re missing what you had before,
In case you change your mind, 
I’ll be waiting here in case, you just want to come home…,
In case…,” You sang.
The crowd was in awe. 
Michael looked back up, noticing you were no longer looking at him. He looked incredibly sad and was full of regret. But, the words offered him some sort of hope for reconciliation. 
As you got to the end of the song, you belted out the lyrics with your powerful voice once more.
“In case, you’re looking in that mirror one day,
And miss my arms, how they wrapped around your waist,
I say, you can love me again,
Even if it isn’t the case,” You sang, tears coming to your eyes.
As you finished the song, the crowd erupted with applause and cheers. You walked back from the microphone for a moment before you smiled politely to the room. You put your hands behind your back and bowed. When you stood back up, your eyes met with Michael’s again. He was clapping and smiling softly at you. He was proud of you. You gave him a bit of a nod.
A little while later, you were backstage, drinking some much needed water and chatting with some other younger famous adult women. The award show had ended and Michael was going home with three wins, while you were going home with one. You were having a great time until the ladies you were talking to got quiet and gave each other, and you, a mischievous look.
“What?” You asked. Your back was facing toward the room.
“I think someone’s here to see you,” One of the them said. 
You blinked and turned around. 
Michael was standing shyly with his hands in his pockets. He smiled softly.
“Hey,” He said.
“Hey, you,” You said in return.
The ladies you were chatting with quickly walked away to give the two of you some space. You crossed your arms and smiled softly at him.
“You did amazing out there, you know. You have so much talent, (Y/N). I’m tellin’ ya!” Michael said sincerely, taking a hand out of his pocket and putting it by his side. 
You smiled with a blush and shuffled your feet a bit.
“Thank you, I appreciate that a lot. Congratulations on your wins tonight, too. You deserve them - more than anyone,” You said to him.
Michael blushed.
“Thank you, (Y/N). That means a lot to me, too. Don’t forget you won, too! Congratulations are in order for you, as well,” Michael smiled with a blush.
You chuckled and crossed your arms, giving him a pleasant smile. 
The two of you then gave each other a look of sadness mixed with some sort of hope. Michael looked at the floor for a moment before he bit his lip and looked back up at you.
“Are you going to the after party?” He asked. 
You shook your head with a chuckle.
“Probably not. Those party scenes aren’t really for me…you know that,” You said in a slightly playfully flirty tone. 
Michael nodded with a bigger smile before he nervously scratched the top of his head for a moment.
“I do know that,” He chuckled.
“Would you like to come back to my apartment? Not like that…Just so we can celebrate in a…quieter space,” Michael said almost sheepishly. 
You raised an eyebrow.
“Is anyone else going to be there?” You asked softly.
“...Not if you don’t want there to be,” He replied.
You laughed softly and thought for a moment, pulling your hands in front of your body and holding them together.
“Sure. That sounds really great,” You said, giving him a bit of a playful look.
Michael kept the smile on his face as he raised his hand to gestured toward the exit.
“After you,” He said with a playful look on his face as well.
You and Michael walked out of the venue together and got into his car. The driver drove you back to his place and you stayed nearly the whole night. But, you didn’t want to rush back into anything if there wasn’t actually a chance. You went home but not before telling Michael to call you.
“Don’t be a stranger,” You said, pulling at his collar on his suit jacket.
“I won’t be if you don’t want me to be,” He said sadly.
You looked up at him with wide eyes that were getting wet.
“What if I told you I didn’t want you to be?” You asked softly, peering up at him.
“Then I’ll call you,” Michael smiled longingly. 
You nodded and leaned up, kissing his cheek. He kissed yours back. You gave each other one last look before you walked out of the door. A couple days later, Michael did call you again. And, the rest is history.

i'm not big on the idea of soulmates irl bc i don't think the world is that orderly and well-designed BUT it works in fanfiction because fictional characters can in fact be created to be complementary to each other & are very much bound to that by forces outside their control. what i'm saying is i bet exr soulmate fic slaps

Been thinking about one of your posts since I woke up this morning. About how Gojo doesn't know how long it's been and if Rinko is alive or not. Like he tortures himself into thinking that she's found someone else and given that person children and just has all the experiences he wants with her with someone else.
Like I know its not true but can you imagine.
WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME???? NOOOOOO
am i allowed to blame your pregnancy hormones for this? 💀if this is overstepping, i apologize.
BUT WHY WOULD YOU SAY THESE THINGS??????????????? 😭😭😭😭😭
Gojo does know that she will likely never end up with anyone else, but that almost makes him sadder. Because he wants her to be happy, even if it's not with him. (But he also knows that he can make her happy and he wants to he's just a lil dumb sometimes 😂)
He wonders briefly if she could be happy with Nanami and if he's gone the rest of her life, if those two would give it a try. But he also knows that they view each other as siblings and it likely wouldn't work out. So he just hopes that Nanami is there for her 🙃

Playing Skyrim with mods, tried the new Taliesin mod. I think it's my all time favorite.
My character, day one: I found an injured Thalmor and helped him out. I don't know if I did the right thing, but he was delirious and in a lot of pain, and I couldn't just leave him to die. He offered to accompany me afterwards, and honestly, I run into trouble too often to say no. I hope this doesn't come back to bite me.
My character, now: Dear Diary. Tally said he wants to serenade me under the moonlight. Does He Like Me.

Do you ever read a fic & then some random side characters that pop up again & again throughout the whole story do something together in the background while the main character is occupied with their own thoughts & just brushes over them like a fleeting, unimportant observation? And you’re like these two, I wanna ship these two. And then you keep your eyes open for more background interaction like those as a secondary goal besides reading & enjoying the fic (that’s when a fanfic really starts to live at least to me).
Though I’m all insecure & paranoid now bc the author surely didn’t mean to paint these two in a romantic light & just needed that side interaction as a description filler & im reading too much into this, but like…I ship it. Oops. How did that happen

#like. I knew perwaine was a ship & I was all “oh how cute“#& then just brushed over it bc to me it only had cuteness & nothing more#there wasn’t this heartwrenching emotional investment yknow what I mean#BUT THEN. one seemingly normal but also faithful day: I read this sentence in a super cool merthur fic#i read it to the end of the paragraph. reread it again & SUDDENLY Arthur’s emotional turmoil took a backseat#fics that are so long & complex that you ship the side characters my beloved#scratch that: fics that are so complex & thought through that they become independent pieces of literature separated from th original media#i love this fic#have been reading SOLELY this big boy for days now. yes it’s that good#can’t put it away. I love it. it has literally EVERYTHING: nice plot. Arthur gets an actual character arc. humour. angst. mysteries#also Gwen is treated like the queen she deserves to be (and there’s even a hint of Mergwenthur there MY HEART CANNOT TAKE IT)#it explains Camelot lore & the laws of the old religion#and ​let’s not forget the smut okay. let’s not forget that#ALSO the FUCKING BADASS magic reveal. kudos to the author there for depicting Arthur in a realistic way CONSISTENLY throughout this#Anyways. I love this fic#would definitely recommend dude. you haven’t lived until you read this one#it’s worth it I swear#bbc merlin#fanfic#fanfiction#ao3#perwaine#merthur#the hands of a hundred winters#The Dust of Hope#i love this author. I wanna peak into their brain#fics I have read & need to hype up#minee#as in my post. not my fic. I couldn’t be this brilliant#fanfic recs

Many people and even governments have tried to take down ao3 to no succes. So, that’s how the anti-ecto acts come to light. I’m thinking either Tim, Jason or Stephanie for this. Just scrolling on ao3 with the real life hero fandom or a specific tag they were looking at, and they come across works of one real life hero named Phantom. Que a heartwrenching 10k oneshot about the hero and his own selfdoubt about why he would continue while humans want to tear him down, his enemies want to tear him down and he seemed to have no support.
Well damn, this hero sounded interesting. Clicking on this specific hero, they start reading more of the hero named Phantom. Just… every story contains some mention about the government and something called the anti-ecto act??? What’s this?
That’s how the JL finds out about this and resolve to abolish the laws. When Danny finally meets the bat that had discovered the laws I imagine it going something like this.
Danny: thank you, I was starting to loose hope of ever being considered my own person. *starry eyed, very thankful and just a bit (giant bucket) of hero worship*
Tim/Jason/Stephanie: ehhh, *cough*, I mean, detective work. Yes, a good detective knows the ins and outs of the law, it’s only natural I found out.
Danny: *hero worship and complete trust* you’re amazing🤩🤩🤩
I think using AO3 fanfic is an under rated way of figuring out your governments atrocities. Do with this what you will :)
