Sirius, catching James staring at Regulus: Ask him out.
James: Now?
Sirius: Yes, now.
James: Right now?
Sirius: Yes, right now. Prongs, I don't think you get it here. You're a Quidditch captain, okay? You're head boy. Everyone wants you, you know, you're like the hot girl every guy wants.
Remus: *Walks up and stops beside them*
James: I'm the hot girl?
Sirius, walking away backwards: You are the hottest girl.
Remus: What?
James: I'm the hot girl.
Remus, nodding: Yes you are.

Not every closed door is a bad thing. If God had not shut that door, we would have been satisfied to stay where we were.
Not every time a person walks away from us is a tragedy. God knows we won’t move forward without a push.
You have too much potential, too much talent, too much in you to get stuck where you are. He’ll put you in situations that make you stretch, make you grow, make you spread your wings. 🌸

See, you said we should make sure to have a lot of time to read this last chapter, but I wasn't expecting to need so much time that, when I started reading just after lunch, I would be interrupted only halfway through act two by my parents calling me for dinner. And I'm not a slow reader, certainly not (Even if I did have to take a mental wellness break of watching Ren wrangle armadillos between acts, but that was just half an hour).
I was not expecting it to be quite this long. That it made me cry though, that I did expect.
‘i was not expecting it to be quite this long’ YOU AND ME BOTH 😂⚰️
like ok i knew going into it that it’d be a lot bc there was a lot i wanted to cover, but was NOT thinking over 30k words long??? it’s ridiculous. but i’d already used every line in the song for chapter titles so i couldn’t split it up any more. c’est la vie. glad u enjoyed it tho!! 💃

The succubus did as instructed, giving Velvette a small grin. "Don't be afraid to get close, sugar, I don't bite."
- 🪷 (it was indeed an accident but too late now lol)
Velvette rolled her eyes and approached the succubus. She started running the measure tape along the long limbs, curves and tall frame of her client. Despite it being a routine procedure for her, it felt oddly uncomfortable due to the lack of the buzzing of her employees running around. It's why she usually preferred to not take clients in her personal office and keep them in the main room of her floor, but oh well, sometimes people walk in unannounced, I guess.
Some small talk would help take the awkwardness out of silently sauntering around a stranger, wouldn't it? "You know, I don't think I caught your name." The demoness said nonchalantly, without initiating eye contact.

Love how LBH bonded with all the Batkids. And being technologically illiterate. The protagonist halo is not helping for once XD! But it’s ok, he can always go to SQQ for help UWU. Also, yes, I would like to hear more about Batman! SQQ cross dressing for infiltration purposes 👀 👀.
All the protagonist halo in the world can't make you technologically literate lol.
*slams hands together* SO! I had this thought a couple days ago that there is a lot of things sqq would have mastered by living in an alternate pidw, archery and painting and music and horse riding and hair care and all sorts, but most importantly - wife plot/gay idiots hunt demons plot starters. A lot of fanfic and heist movies and adult 'coming of ages' and all sorts LOVE crossdressing as a trope, and I I do love me a good oblivious gender queer sqq!
He has 100% had to infiltrate a brothel or club or gathering or acted as demon bait at some point in his long life, and with his already lean and pretty figure, his own appearance perfectionist tendencies for the role of sqq, and his husband's refusal to let him out the house looking anything less than stunning, he's put a good effort and practice into it. Nanda parbat (or the other places he studied) is also well versed in disguise as a job. Canonically he uses stage makeup to create other identities, most famously matches malone. SO! By all logic batman would be EXCELLENT at disguising as a woman!
Also in this au I headcanon that cultivators are rarely super muscled, with agility and flexibility also being very important. Think more swimmers and barbarian and lumberjack builds - the muscle isn't for show at all, but some can lift more than the body builders twice their size! Unfortunately for sqq, system demands an imposing presence, and so he fills the bats suit out with fake padding and extra armour and tech. He tucks his long hair in the cowl. It helps emphasise the difference between Bruce Wayne and Batman, and the first time Jason saw him undress after patrol he thought batman was peeling his own skin off lol.
And what that means is he is completely unbothered when a pair of women are needed to infiltrate a club to gather information, and wonder woman is the only one free. She gamely volunteers to go herself, but is vetoed on grounds of safety and efficiency. So then the solution is Martian manhunter but he's off world.
So batman volunteers.
He's met with confusion and disbelief, and for good reason?? He's huge! Buff! Deep voice! Aloof! Batman is a very manly man!
But no, he can do it, are you doubting that he can't? It's fine.
Diana is very excited. Also very curious. Sure, there are amazonians bigger than him, but he is very much a guy and they're not going to a place known for inclusivity.
But despite their misgivings they set a time and place.
And as they're talking, waiting for batman to arrive, a bombshell of a woman walks past. Long dark hair, boobs peeking out of a window, glittery earrings, six inch heels, long and painted nails, big puffy jacket, trousers that flare at the knees, the whole works.
She walks past them again a minute later, and stops. Greets them with a low and sultry voice.
It's batman. Wtf.
Sqq rather thinks he's done a good job with the outfit. The trousers hide his calves, fake boobs are so much more realistic in the modern era, he took his voice changer out. Makeup changes his whole face. He's got contacts and brush through hair due so he doesn't look like Bruce Waynes sister. His voice probably sounds a bit funny but it's close enough! It'll pass!
The group of veteran heroes are choking on their tongues. Diana is delighted.
It's still early days for the league, they're still feeling each other out, seeing if they can trust each other with matters outside of heroism.
For Clark, it's the first of many existential crises.
