DPx DC Au: Might as well be brothers. Young Justice hears about a regional hero disappearing, and while they've never met the guy, Red Robin's contacts say that Ra's is hunting him for afterlife/immortality related reasons.

Tim drake hates the annoying white uniform he's wearing but breaking into this place is crucial to his 24 hour plan to rescue Phantom. He'd never even heard of the guy until a week ago when Pru came to him with info that Ra's was looking into Midwest Real Estate, and then Tim stumbled down the rabbit hole of Ghost conspiracy theories until he saw an article demanding that local officials speak on the hero's absence of 10 days. 10 days was short enough that Tim might find a sign of life and well, another federal agency being hacked by Red Robin is nothing new.

So now, he's walking down the halls with these stupid fucking glasses and this stupid fucking suit while Kon listens from the comfort of the surveillance van. He takes a turn and sees the track suits that the illegally detained inmates are wearing, and pivoting the plan, makes his way to a locker room to get one and get changed. It does take him an extra second and he considers that this might bite him- but Tim knows the place inside and out. He's scoured all their data, and sue him for being cocky, but he has a literal alien ready to tear the place apart waiting for his heart rate to jump above 80 bpm. which is a pretty low heart rate all things considered.

Tim gets exactly where he's meant to go, and waits only a few minutes before he see's the science team extract Phantom from the high security room.

Phantom doesn't make it clear if he notices Tim, but he's basically being dragged by the couple, so Tim decides to beat them to their destination. The experimental wing had shown up in their reported data not long after they made it extremely obvious that they had Phantom in their data output.

Tim's already in the room when he starts to notice that it's not exactly a room... more like a mechanical space. The way the corners curl in the room make it almost tube like... Portal like.

Phantom is thrown in and Tim grabs him the second the scientists leave, but the kill switch key Tim made to get them out isn't working for this door like it did all the others.

"Not... Not a door."

"We're in some sort of device aren't we? Something of their own design that the government isn't aware they're funding?"

"Portal. You've gotta get out, even if you get caught, you gotta get out now."

Tim's comm comes alive in his ear, its Kon responding to Tim's heart rate rising- and Tim is hesitant to call him in but ultimately tells him to start flying over for extraction.

Then the portal goes off, and while he feels pain, he doesn't feel different. Bright light subsiding, Kon's arms around him with a confused voice, and lots of lasers being fired his way... Tim wakes up to see a much younger Phantom looking at him from the other side of the young justice couch.

Kon, Bart and Cassie are all fighting at a white board that's been wheeled in but Tim can only yawn and blink his way into consciousness enough to give a shit.

Black haired and blue eyed, button nosed with large ears, a wry thin lipped smile... Tim realizes that Phantom looks incredibly similar to his younger self. And then Tim looks at his much smaller hands and realizes that he probably looks a lot more similar to his younger self than normal.

Taking in the scenery once more, the white board is divided on the traits Tim has to the children sitting left and right on the couch. Kon didn't know who was who. That meant that maybe... the government didn't either.

Phantom turns out to be a pretty chill dude despite all the trauma, and he's incredibly prepared to both fuck with Ra's and the government in their newly found childhood twin-ship.

One of the twins is scarier than the other, and despite Danny literally haunting them, its always Tim.

(Okay now its some one else's turn :D )

Things that are so much fun: matching lingerie, dresses that swish, butts, colourful petticoats.

here’s the thing: i want attention

here’s the other thing: if i am perceived in any way i will violently explode like a poorly maintained home brewery kit

Absolutely gutted about switchraft shutting down in December, I don’t know what to do with myself. It was such a meaningful, beautiful, fabulous to play game that I played constantly to help with my anxiety and cheer me up. It was the best match 3 game I’ve ever played, the gameplay was wonderful. I’m going to try and finish the story before it shuts down but I feel like I’m mourning Lovestruck all over again. It’s going to leave such a big hole in my life and I’m destroyed I only have less than two months left with it.

If anyone knows of a Switchcraft discord or wants to be friends and chat about it, feel free to lmk because the fandom feels so small and it’s hard to mourn alone 💔

Love jaydick and how they love each other.

They'll never have joy over a joined kill...

Jason will take pride in doing the right thing.

While Dick will suffer the misery of doing what needs to be done.

Dick loves Jason in spite of his violence. He acknowledges his lack of understanding of Jason's need to enact such form of justice, and he wouldn't necessary join Jason in his methods. But Dick's love for Jason is so strong he is willing to tolerate, for Jason only.

This might sound attention seeking so I'm sorry if it does, it is not my intention, I am just looking for a distraction.

Since my anxiety is actively trying to kill me, I'd really appreciate some asks or something

The more bizarre the question, the better, but I'll take things for my wips or ocs

Just anything to distract me from the fact I feel rather miserable lately

*i get sappy in the tags*

looking back i have healed and improved emotionally and just overall SOOOOOO much in the past couple years

Hot Scarian Summer day 6 fic draft is (finally!!!!!) finished! ☆*:.｡.o(≧▽≦)o.｡.:*☆

it's also!!!! bad!!!!!! but it is now in a readable state at least T-T

[hotsugarbyglassanimals]

it's probably the sunnier weather that's doing stuff to my brain to make me more optimistic but it's so interesting having a brain that craves a lot of self-fulfillment to the point where I can move past some hang-ups around perfection by going "oh I really wanna do that though" and then I do it well because researching how to do it right is also a rewarding part of the process

peach tree saga continues:

so seriously, this years harvest is unprecedented for us, and that meant we were completely taken by surprise. the tree is seriously bent over and has had to be braced to a number of things, including a ladder

another effect of this is: no netting or protection was installed. honestly, idk that i would've? i truly do not mind creatures eating our peaches. and the fallen/partly eaten ones go in the worm bin to become soil later

but it does mean that i just had to go out and do a fallen peach run and while i respect all insects, it is still p unpleasant to work in a small cloud of fruit flies 😂😅

whenever possible i try to do work like this while it's raining but no rain coming up and the peaches were Not gonna wait, so

another benefit of having other things eat the peaches is that every peach off of that tree is less weight on it. i'm gonna be trimming it so intensely after the harvest is over, holy shit. and i have been! now and previously! i've tried very hard to keep it manageable, but it just got settled and went Off this year

general garden stuff:

we really do not have much land. little backyard and sideyard. the frontyard is a wasteland that only the hardiest plants can tolerate, bc it has all that cheap infill soil they ~love~ putting in after laying the pipes and whatnot. but i'm finding things that work here. the peach tree is surrounded by marionberries as well, so we get a nice berry harvest well before the peaches come in, and now we have a nectarine tree in the backyard. have several other things that aren't old enough to bear yet but i'm looking forward to trying someday

also sage. sm sage. i barely use sage? it was an impulsive planting, tossed some veryyyyy old seeds i thought were gone into a little patch of soil, now it's a massive area of sage 😂that said, pollinators love the flowers on it and it flowers for a long time, so it's all good. trying to plant some in the front yard too, bc it is obviously very hardy. i've had a few cuttings take root there so that's been nice to watch
