for a slight spinoff to the traitor pieces...
how bad would it have been if the initial interrogation had been passed off to another team?
i feel like protocol would bar the 141 from having to hurt one of their own, if anything for conflict of interests, going too hard or too soft on them, liabilities, etc
BUT. they have the advantage of knowing so much about their teammate, that they probably reported their weak points- family, traumas, insecurities, ALL OF IT, and all of it told to them originally in what was supposed to be a level of confidence. The 141 is betrayed anyways, they think she spilled their secrets, so they do it with bitterness but no regret.
Well no regret until it turns out she hadn't betrayed them in the first place! whoops!
i think its one thing for you to ask forgiveness after literally cutting off their finger and crippling them, but its another thing entirely to have not been the one to beat her, but to be the one supplying all of her deepest thoughts and weak points to allow someone ELSE to do that much more effectively
THAT is much worse of a betrayal imo. especially since it'd embolden the boys more as they beg for forgiveness; they weren't even the ones who beat you, it was out of their hands! but they dont realize just how deep of a transgression it was for them to turn on one of their own like that. hypocrites
im also thinking of it being like, a week or two since you got detained, and they're doing some digging for their own missions, and someone sees a lead not end up right... and after some chasing they realize themselves that the intel was forged and then THEY gotta be the ones to go to the higherups and get you pulled out of there. they feel like heroes, and that you'll be so happy to see them again when you wake up in the infirmary, but you see the faces of your team and remember how the interrogators beat you to questions about things that you had only ever told to your boys
those are just my thoughts teehee!
your mind is so powerful.
(honestly, you guys should take this series out of my hands and write it yourselves. you all have so many good ideas!🥰)
but I kinda agree with you. physical torture is awful, don’t get me wrong. but the team sees that, and they don’t feel bad because they didn’t inflict those wounds.
psychological torture, though? they can’t see what they’ve done to you, but it’s there. and because they can’t see it it makes it so much worse. it makes it so much harder for them to understand why you won’t forgive them, and why you won’t praise them for clearing your name.

failed two drawings today, alas: unnecessarily dramatic lintroller
" You’ve robbed me of my peace forever… Yet —
Poor sufferer! — I cannot help but hear
Your tale of sorrow with a secret joy. "
Based this off of a painting by Mihály Zichy which was (as far as ive found out) based on the poem Demon by Mikhail Lermontov! for anyone curious
i also quickly read through it and have some lintroller notes...
" This was no angel sent there from on high;
No guardian ordained for her by God;
No halo spun from iridescent rays
Adorned the locks that ringed that handsome face.
Nor yet was this some awful fiend of Hell,
Enduring torment for his many sins —
No, no! He looked like lucid evening —
Not night, not day — not dark, not light "
ermmm Lint being aware that Troy is not a Good Person, but also noticing that he isn't the absolute worst either, like other people might think? Perhaps!
" (...)First pierced the Demon’s heart — and, knowing now
The fear that love entails, he wished to flee,
To flee — and yet his wings refused to move! "
Troy realizing he's in love with Lint and being terrified of the idea... but also it's Lint. Lint is wonderful. He can't just run away.
" He enters now — his heart prepared to love,
His soul no longer shutting out the good,
Believing that a long-awaited life —
A new life — a new day — was now to dawn. "
ARGH happy ending lintroller yay :) pls
His heart prepared to love.. no longer shutting out the good... aghh do u hear me
" You’ve robbed me of my peace forever… Yet —
Poor sufferer! — I cannot help but hear
Your tale of sorrow with a secret joy. " (which i used at the start)
robbed me of my peace forever im a lil iffy abt, but listen. I dont think Lint has a lot of peace as Troys (quoting the wiki) "neglected friend"
Also! "I cant help but hear your tale of sorrow with a secret joy" Troy telling Lint abt how scared he was to love them,,, and although thats like super sad Lint is like omg he love me.. teehee..
ANYWAY... RANT OVER SORRY I LIKE... POEMS AND LINTROLLER
ref i used:

If you r still doing the fic recs, what are some good Bruce and Jason ones? I'm going insane
HELLO. oh my gosh. you know, since exam month has officially begun, i should be studying, but like, why would i do that when i could be doing this instead? this is like. so much more productive for my happiness.
it's no secret i am not normal absolutely totally insane about bruce and jason and OF COURSE i will rec you fics of them. i have 150+ bookmarks of fics just centred around them so i really tried to narrow it down to a few of my favourites. if you ever need anymore please ask again!
what a truly disastrous tragedy they are. the blueprint i fear. no fictional father and son has impacted me more. jason and bruce fic writers lace their works in crack because once you read one, you are stuck forever. there is no escape. trust me. anyways!
BRUCE AND JASON FIC RECS
don't take your guns to town by kreestar
batman comes home from a night patrolling to find a 10 year old jason todd waiting for him in his kitchen. across gotham, at the same time, red hood is stopped by a 25 year old bruce wayne.
MY NOTES: no one is surprised at all that the first fic on this list is time travel. the characterisation in this was insanely good especially between young bruce and jason i loved their parts. so bittersweet and the ending was lovely!
I Will Always Be There For You by squashflower
There's a closet in the manor that locks you inside. It has no lighting or heating or air conditioning of any kind, and Jason, safe to say, wishes he could burn it to the ground. Or shoot it. One of the two.
MY NOTES: there is just something so good about stories where it switches from robin jason to an experience mirrored by red hood jason and this is the perfect example. so so good.
all the small weights by sparkycap
When Batman gets hit with fear toxin, he worries about his Robins.
His Robins think it's their job to deal with it.
Jason wasn't aware anyone still included him in that group, but according to Tim, he's the only one available.
MY NOTES: fear toxin the trope that keeps on giving. best thing about this though is that the actual fear toxin is not the main part of the story, and i think it was handled so beautifully and maturely in a way i haven't seen before. i cried (twice).
-> just an aside, but i think you should read the other bruce and jason work by this specific writer. they're all insanely good.
Mermaid Tears by minnow_doodle_doo
And if real mermaid tears were what Jason wanted the world to have, Bruce would make Aquaman cry glass.
MY NOTES: teehee sorry for recommending ur own fic in ur ask minnow but this fic is just so sweet and special i need everyone to read it. a wonderful look into that all encompassing love bruce had for jason when things were much simpler for them.
Aftermath by ivy_and_ivory
Now: Batman is in Paris, pulled there by a case that extends beyond Gotham’s borders, when circumstances lead him to a badly injured Red Hood – who might hold the key to Batman’s investigation.
Then: The Red Hood storms into Gotham, begins to stake his claim on the criminal underground, then abruptly disappears – but only after he breaks into Arkham Asylum and leaves the Joker dead in his own cell.
Or: A study of why Bruce couldn’t kill the Joker, what would happen if someone else could – and how you move on from the aftermath.
MY NOTES: you know when you find a fic and you're just like. oh my god. this is it. this is exactly what i wanted. this is all that matters. yeah. that's this fic to me. im sort of obsessed with the idea of batman bonding with red hood without making the direct connection that it's jason.
A Straight Blade by Sparkypants
"What happened to your face?" Bruce asks, reaching his hand for Jason's jaw. "You're bleeding."
Jason bristles, cheeks turning pink. "I cut myself shaving." He says, and wipes at the cut with the cuff of his hoody.
Damian makes a clicking noise with his tongue, "I'm amazed you haven't taken your own head off." He snarks.
Jason shoves his chair away from the table, temper flaring. "Well it's not like anyone ever taught me, is it." He hisses.
He's five years late, but Bruce finally teaches Jason how to shave.
MY NOTES: i am so okay so normal about this fic. such a sweet little happy story but i was literally looking down at my screen squinting through my blurry vision because i was tearing up. the unknowing domestic simplicities of being father and son (hysterical sobbing)
Stargazer by LemonadeGarden
Jason Todd is seriously injured during patrol one night, and is forced to stay at the manor to recuperate until his injuries are healed. To pass the time, he makes a list of things he never got to do before he died.
Except there's one small problem: most of them involve Bruce, and Jason doesn't really think Bruce cares all that much about him anymore.
This is a story about how wrong he is, but I made it sad anyway.
MY NOTES: okay so i think the best way to end this post is with the first ever bruce and jason centric work i ever read that changed the chemicals in my brain forever. THIS is the fic that made me really latch onto their relationship and want to see that reconciliation and recovery. THE roadtrip fic ever.

forgot to sign off my last ask i think……….. oopsies… u know it’s me tho 😝 ANYWAYS im thinking. im COOKING!!!!!!!! and i have to share w you bc duh
coming home after having like. a terrible day. mayb this is ur first job out of college. and ur boss is terrible. ur coffee order was wrong. u got flipped off by some guy while you were driving. ur boss got mad at you for something you didn’t even do…….. IDK. just. a bad day. you just want to come home and be taken care of. not have to think.
which is where the boys come in 😏 they’re trying to cheer you up to no avail…. which ends with you telling them you just don’t want to think. don’t want to have to do anything. you need them to toss you around use you etc etc….. and they oblige 🙂↕️ anything to make their girl happy!!
TEEHEE I always know it’s you anyway <3
but yeah :((( you just want to be a pillow princess for the afternoon :((( for Art and Patrick to tell you exactly what to do, what position they want you in, all so your brain can go fuzzy.
and Art is so eager to help, to pull off your cute little work clothes and bury his face in your cunt. Lets you lay back and play with his hair mindlessly while he licks at your pretty little pussy. He loves it, loves when you just let him mouth at your cunt for however long he wants. You taste so sweet for him.
And then there’s Patrick, who lets you mouth at his cock, guides your head up and down on his cock, lets you go slow and easy. Lets you drool on him, make out with his tip so pre smears across your lips. His sweet girl, who just wants the shitty day to go away.
Patrick’s the one who fucks you first, practically folds you in half, so he slides in nice and deep. Gets your eyes rolling back, he knows exactly how you need to get fucked, doesn’t he? Knows how to make you feel good for him. And then it’s Art, fucking you nice and slow, really sweet— kissed you, brushes your hair out of your face, presses his forehead to yours, all close and sweet.
Sigh anyways……..
