Butterflies

(a Bluepulse.... thing. I dunno. Piece of writing? Oneshot? huuhhh???????)

Wrote a quick thingy. It takes place somewhere in the Social Butterfly timeline, or whatever, but it's not part of the events of the fic (as of yet? idk man).

Bart's POV

I never used to notice butterflies before.

But then, I met Jaime.

They're his favourite animal. He loves talking about them.

One time, I was at his house, and there was a little one sitting on his windowsill. He noticed it, and just gazed at it for, what felt like hours, even though it was probably just a few minutes before it flew away.

He does that a lot.

But, that's the day I found out that he's probably not just gazing at them. That there's probably way more thoughts happening in his brain than I assumed.

When that little butterfly flew away, he stayed quiet. I remember that he was playing with his hair. He does that a lot, too.

I told him, "Alright, what've you got to say about the little guys this time?"

My question seemed to snap him out of whatever world he was just in.

"Oh! It's... nothing. I mean... it's... it's not... it's different..." he stuttered. "Are you sure you still want to hear it? It's kinda boring..."

I didn't understand why he was being so shy about it. I'd always listened to whatever he had to say about butterflies, because it's not very often you hear Jaime talk for so long, and with so much confidence. I like seeing that side of him, and I want him to be comfortable showing it.

And now I was considering the possibility of him showing me a different side of him. A side that's more difficult to show, maybe.

"If you wanna talk to me, then go ahead! Of course, you don't have to." I told him. I noticed that I was smiling. He looked at me, and smiled too.

"Alright... well..." he began. "Butterflies are... a bit like me, I think." he said, in a voice that was kinda shy, and quiet. And he'd be right. But I'd soon find out that our reasons for thinking this differ.

He said, "There's no other bug truly like them. Not even moths. They're different. They're... quiet. And... they're sensiti-... fragile. They're fragile. I guess, knowing that they're in the world, I feel better being me. I never feel completely alone..."

His voice got quieter towards the end.

I do think he's like a butterfly, but not exactly for all the reasons he said. He got the unique part right, but he seemed to forget how cute butterflies are, too. Or that a butterfly can't see just how beautiful its own wings are.

Now, I'm starting to wish they could.

I hope he can.

But I know you're wondering what I actually said. And no, I didn't mention the cute bit.

"You know, maybe the butterflies like how quiet you are. Maybe they like how unique you are. Maybe you're their favourite human!" I suggested, smiling. "And, maybe they want you to be proud of who you are."

His smile grew even wider.

"Hey, technically, a butterfly can't actually see how awesome its wings really look, can it?"

"...no, they can't..." he confirmed. As his smile fell slightly, his face went just a little bit red.

"Do you think the butterflies think something similar about you? That you can't truly see how great you are?"

"Maybe..."

"And do you think that some people think that about you, too?"

"I... I guess so."

I know that what we said would probably sound really corny to, like, everyone else. But it meant a lot to us.

"So don't you think that next time you think something bad about yourself, you should maybe consider all of your butterfly friends... and your human ones, too? And your family, and all the people that you've saved and helped... but mostly the butterflies? Because, I don't think anyone has a single doubt in their minds about them."

"Yeah. I guess I should think about them more. Which I don't mind at all, because they're, like, one of my favourite things... ever!" he gushed, the happiest he'd be that day.

I always notice butterflies now.

They make my best friend so happy.

unlikely but does anyone have a copy saved of that old Bluepulse fic, “I Never Thought You’d Ask” by whoevenareyou? I remember it being really really cute. It’s been years and I’m still not over it being deleted off of Ao3. :(

(By the way, this is your daily reminder that you can orphan works! You can cut ties with old writing and have it turned anonymous + completely unlinked with your account... without inevitably breaking the hearts of old readers lol.)

UPDATE: A happy ending to this post~ I found someone in the reblogs who had a copy saved! Thank you so much <333

[mikeydraws]

Imagine binge reading a fanfic for 4 hours straight and then regretting it the next day bc you slept 3 hours

Im so sleep deprived rn imma pass out I hate this ear infection

@sunshineyello2278 I hope you don’t mind the tag but I really liked your fic and made fanart 🥺🥺

[crashing-all-modes]

New chapter is up!!! YIPPEE!!!! :)

Definitely no angst or dread here :)

[wazzappp]

im kind of new to the blue beetle fandom and i want to get into ships but idk where to start

from what ive seen jaime doesnt have a ‘solid’ pairing but then again im not sure

are there any jaime ships that you’re fond of or that you reccommend getting into?

WELCOME TO THE BLUE BEETLE FANDOM!! I dont really ship Jaime with anyone in particular, so I only know a little bit about ships. But I can try and remember some that I've seen!

You've got the cannon ones of course. Jenny from the movie, and Tracie 13 from the comics.

The most popular fan ship (and overall ship really) has GOTTA be with him and Bart though. It got a major foothold with the young justice show. My buddy @sosoribro has some SUPER CUTE art with them and my other mutualbestie @kermit-coded has some fantastic fics for them. The ship name is Bluepulse if you wanna go looking for it.

I've also seen some shipping with him and Jason Todd, but im not very familiar with the ship as a whole. There are also a few people who ship Jaime and Khaji Da but thats not really my cup of tea. They are siblings to me your honor. Weird weird siblings.

Chapter 11: Damian Jumps Out of A Plane With 3 Idiots

Fic: Metamorphosis: A Guide To Heroism

"Where is your home now?” Damian felt a pang of deep longing and pain in his chest at the Kryptonian’s question. Clenching his fists and breaking the shared gaze he sighed. A bitter taste filled his mouth and the burning sun above melded something inside his chest-liquid and free- into a fine blade. He thought briefly of The League, his good old days and then of his time with Batman and his family. He mourned the gentle touch of his mother's hands in his hair and her habit of kissing his forehead after he'd completed a mission. He recalled the taste of her favorite sweets and the scent of her perfume, rich and exotic in a way only she could pull off. He had once lived to serve his mother and by extension, the Demon's Head and The League Of Assassins.

He missed the feeling of green-colored silk against his rough calluses.

He missed the taste of dates and the goals he'd been given to become the best he could.

He missed the warmth and melodic clink of his mother's hugs as her jewelry tapped against his own.

Oh how Damian longed to rest his troubled head on his Uma's lap one last time.

The bitter bite of his life returned in full swing and he simply sighed, exhausted.

Where is your home now?

“Fuck if I know.”

20 Questions for Writers

I was tagged by @linzerj for this, so without further ado:

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

On Ao3 I currently have 70 (though that number is going to increase soon), and on ffn (all my oldest stuff) I have 34. (Dear lord I need to eventually move my older stuff to Ao3. Maybe under a secondary pseud at some point... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

2. What’s your total AO3 word count?

201,448

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Looooots of DC stuff, some TMNT, and with my older stuff I also wrote for Sonic, DBZ, Legend of Zelda, FMA, Gargoyles, Peter Pan, and Megaman. (I also have some early-stages fic and plans for Planet of the Apes fics, but I haven't posted any of that yet.)

4. What are your top five fics by kudos?

Head Trauma - One of my earliest Bluepulse OT3 fics. YJA-based; Jaime gets knocked out on a mission and the team gets their first exposure to Khaji Da directly.

Loving an Alien Shouldn't be this Complex - Another Bluepulse OT3. YJA-based; Bart's part in what's intended to be a trilogy of fics about the same circumstances/events. Crushing on Jaime is one thing, but realizing he's crushing on Khaji Da is a whole different ballpark.

If You Think My Truth Is A Lie, You Can Get Bent - Bluepulse OT3 yet again, though background in this case rather than front and center. Mostly YJA-based; Bart is trans, in college, and entirely fed up with an obnoxious classmate who was perfectly fine with him and the fact that he's a guy up until she found out he's trans.

The Weirdness That You Know - Pre-Bluepulse OT3, pre-finding-out-Khaji-Da's-name. YJA-based; During some downtime on base after the events of season 2, Jaime winds up finding out that Bart and Khaji Da are very similar in terms of their sense of humor. The two of them getting along should probably be concerning.

Familia: Not Simple, but Needed - Bluepulse OT3. Mostly YJA-based; What happens when you have a sleep-deprived scarab who stubbornly has stayed awake for about three weeks? Nothing good and nothing the three of them would have ever expected if Khaji Da was coherent enough to think through the consequences of their actions before doing something.

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

I try to. Sometimes I wind up replying waaaaaayyyyyy later (when my emotional energy tanks it takes a lot for me to drag myself into talking to people in general, but I try to reply when I'm in a better spot), but if I have my way then I'll eventually reply to everything (unless there's literally nothing else to say).

6. What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

That would honestly have to be either my Bluepulse OT3 poem I Am Your Loss or my La'gaan-centric fic I Tried To Warn You. I Am Your Loss is focused on Khaji Da outliving Jaime and Bart and all the feelings involved with that, and I Tried To Warn You is an examination of La'gaan's emotionally abusive relationship with M'gann and him coming to terms with the fact that he was manipulated and abused. So yeah. Heavy.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

That's a tough one. The Name That Calls You Home is one contender, along with Fatherhood Isn't Easy, and Trusting Again Can Be The Hardest Thing. Two of those are focused on family and finding home (TNTCYH and FIE), and two are La'gaan-centric (FIE and TACBTHT). So yay for one of my TMNT AUs and two of my La'gaan fics meeting the mark? (Though all three have some painful circumstances that make the good that much more pronounced. Yeah, that was unintentional.)

8. Do you get hate on your fic?

The only time I've ever gotten any 'hate' was someone trying to be pissy about an old poem series I wrote back in highschool because they didn't feel it was a 'serious poetic work' and was 'amateurish'.

That. On character-based poetry. For freaking Sonic characters. Seriously just-

9. Do you write smut?

Almost never. (I can't say never because I did publish one fic on Ao3, but by a lot of people's standards it's really tame.)

10. Do you write crossovers?

I'm not opposed to crossovers, but I very rarely do. Usually I find my mind playing with multiverse iterations of characters meeting each other, but it's very rare my mind goes to wildly different stories getting a crossover-- in no small part because it usually tends to devolve into a case of 'Wouldn't it be cool if these characters met? Look how cool this character is!' in my head with no real decent plot. (That said, thanks to some old RPs with a friend of mine I am fond of Mass Effect's femshep and Voltron's Allura as a ship. It was a chaotic RP. lol)

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

As far as I know, NOPE. If I'm fortunate it'll never happen.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yes actually! Both I Tried To Warn You and Unstoppable Until I Break that I know of. (Unfortunately I can't read Chinese, so finding them on the site they're hosted on is difficult for me, but I do know they're there somewhere.) La'gaan keeps winning. lol

13. Have you ever co-written a fic?

Only one, and it's Devilfish. Beneath the Surface was a fun collaboration between me and onyxdragonx back before tumblr's purge in 2018. I have no idea if he left tumblr entirely, but I'm glad we wrote it.

14. What‘s your all-time favourite ship?

Ngl, it varies by series/franchise and how I'm feeling. I used to be pretty solid in single ships for characters for a long time, but as time has gone by I've drifted more into multi-shipper territory. At the moment though, the one that's eating at my brain the most is Devilfish-- La'gaan/Eddie-- because hell yes for my crack ship.

15. What’s the WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

Maybe it's over-optimistic of me, but I don't look at any of my WIPs as 'abandoned' or as something I'll 'never' complete. Back when I was posting my writing only to ffn I used to joke about my trademarked 'delays of doom'. It's always a case of I will get to said stories eventually and I do work on old things from time to time, but due to shifting interests/life junk/life-junk-that-causes-a-low-creative-battery/etc. it can take me a long time to get back to something.

If I was going to narrow it down to the one that I'm not sure when precisely I'll get back to and is the most likely to take me a while to get back to (more than anything else), then it'd probably have to be an Elfquest fic with Leeta/Cutter/Rayek as endgame. Either that or the Planet of the Apes series kicking around in my head that I haven't quite figured out how to frame yet.

16. What’s your writing strengths?

FEELINGS. Emotions, getting into characters' heads and hitting that emotional gut-punch that makes people feel things.

17. What’s your writing weaknesses?

Aside from my delays-of-doom™️, I can get SO damned wordy. And cerebral. Which isn't always a bad thing if I want my readers to know what's going on in a character's head, but it's a royal pain in the ass if I want to give a decent description of the space characters are in or have actual conversation and events happening while a character is getting lost in their head.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

YES. I WANT. GIVE.

lol Seriously though, while it might be rare for me to write full-blown conversations in a different language, if a character is multilingual then I personally prefer including indications of that with their word choices. Usually that results in an offhand word or several here or there in places where it flows naturally, but unless I'm confident in how things flow with that other language (whatever it is) then I'm unlikely to go for a full on conversation. If I am confident in the translation of what I'm writing and the switch into that other language makes sense for the characters in context then it's highly likely I'll go for it-- albeit with including the hover-over translation thing that Ao3 offers so readers don't have to bounce back-and-forth between where they're at in the story and the translation at the end of the chapter/fic. (Though I don't mind when other authors take that tactic.)

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Sonic, and though I didn't put any online until 2003, I wrote a whole convoluted series back in middle school and on up into early high school I think (I suspect most of it's lost because it was all on an OLD computer), and even before that I remember a script-styled Sonic fic that I never finished that I was writing back when I was like... 5? ...7? Somewhere in there. Point is my first fandom is from a LONG time ago.

20. Favourite fic you’ve ever written?

Yeeeeeet another hard one. If I don't cop out with Unstoppable Until I Break and I pull in my older stuff, then I guess it'd have to be Two Sides. It's a Legend of Zelda fic playing with the concept of Zelda and Sheik as simultaneously being and not being the same person, and while I'd probably write it differently now (dear gods I published it back in 2008) I still love the concept and think it's intriguing as hell. Just the very idea of Zelda and Sheik having once been the same person and remembering it in subsequent lives is just... There is a TON of potential there.

Will I ever revisit the idea? Maybe one day. For now, it is what it is.

As for who I'm tagging: @sounddrive, @brightlotusmoon, @radioactive-earthshine, and whoever else would like to do this. n.n
