"I'm so normal about him~" <- said while being absolutely abnormal about him

[shrinkthisviolet]

it's honestly SO funny how flustered Eddie makes Barry all throughout the season like, you have a crush Barry! it's okay! lol XD

LITERALLYYYY like...geez between this + the punching bag scene + Eddie's pep talk to Barry in 1x19, Westhawne's adorableness and "I say screw the future for you" theme, Westallen's chemistry throughout s1...Westhallen should've been canon. And endgame. And frankly, if Eddie hadn't died, I fully believe that's what would've happened. You can't change my mind about that.

The Flash 9x12: Thallen Edition- Fix It

[punkeropercyjackson]

Red Hood and The Outlaws rewrite

The original post of this didn't show up in the tags but that turned out to be lucky for me as two major changes happened in mine @insomniac-jay @mayameanderings @refrigeratedboombursts @theautisticcentre @moonage-gaydream and Amrit's(sadly no longer on tumblr but still on discord)Rhato fixit we made because we love Jason and he deserves better!!Cw for super long and heavy post

It starts in 2010 and ends in 2020,runs for 120 issues and happens in-universe over 3 years

The lineup is in order of joining:Jason Todd(Red Hood and briefly a Star Sapphire),Eddie Bloomberg(Red Devil),Rose Wilson(Ravager and later Willow),Summer Kent(Ignite and briefly a Black Lantern),Thaddeus Thawne(Inertia),Pepper Jackson(Star Sapphire),Raveena 'Raven' Rothra(Blackbird),Duke Thomas(Robin),Kahali Roy(Blood Maker),Imani Javiera(Pantheress),Kyle Rayner(Green Lantern and later White Lantern),Artemis Grace(Artemis of Bana-Mighdall),Venus Parks(Star Sapphire),Mathew Kent(Superguy and briefly a Green Lanterm),Daisy Hilliard and Lilith Morningstar(Paradisia and Hex),Jennifer Williams(Batika)and Azriel Morningstar(Ghoul)

Jason,Eddie and Rose are the 'Original Outlaws Trinity' and them and Summer are the 'Dark Core Four'.Jason is the founder and leader and Summer his right hand man who takes over when he can't

Almost all of them are trans and audhd with Mathew as the token cis and Pepper as the token allistic.Jason is monoracial afro-dominican,Rose and Artemis are brownskin and browneyed,Summer is a half white afro-dominicana/afro-mejicana,Thaddeus is black/white mixed because Candice Patton is the only Iris West,Kahali and Raven are indian(tamil and sindi-bengali respectively),Imani is afro-puerto rican and Venus,Daisy,Jennifer and Lilith and Azriel are black.Jason,Summer,Pepper,Imani and Lilith are also fat and Jaysumm is tank4tank

Sometimes a found family can be 18 crazy ass vigilantes some of who weren't even vigilantes at first

The series is very goofy and silly often and in it's fundamental spirit but equally dark and layered in the same sense and is heavy on gags,jokes,violence and social talk.Putting the radicalism and intersectionalism back in comics

The canon couples are Jason/Summer,Eddie/Lilith,Rose/Pepper,Thad/Azriel,Duke/Luna Vásquez,Kahali/Tim Drake,Imani/Vicia López,Kyle/Venus,Artemis/Daisy and Mathew/Jennifer and Raven is aroace.The other adult Outlaws view eachother with very strong platonic love that can be taken as polyamorous love except Summer and Imani who are sisterly and Jason and Raven who are queerplatonic partners and the Kid Outlaws are seen as younger siblings by them with Thad also being considered their adoptive son-By Summer especially and he straight up views him as his mom

Jason is goth punk,Eddie is a metalhead,Rose is goth butch,Summer is pastel punk,Thad is skapunk,Pepper is y2k,Raven is pastel goth,Duke is a solarpunk fashionista,Kahali is whimsigoth,Imani is Aliyahcore,Kyle is losercore-i mean distinct,Artemis is a jock,Venus is ghetto fabulous,Mathew is weirdcore,Daisy is a softgirl,Lilith is scenemo,Jennifer is a prep and Azriel is kidcore

Summer is the Team Mom and Jason is the Team Dad and they're nicknamed 'Supermom and Dadhood' as a teasing joke that they only embrace post getting together(And yet somehow this dosen't stop Jason from saying Summer is a milf with complete honesty and zero hesitation).Raven is the boba aunt

Their base is called The Fortress-named by Summer obviously-and it's an old abandoned huge residence that they started living in after exorsicing it due to investigation leading them there and the moving in decision was made because the beings in it agreed to bless it with eternal running water and electricity as a thank you for helping them move onto the afterlife at last.Everyone has their own room with their own tricked out aesthetic but it's common for them to share their beds and Imani refuses to actually sleep alone,not that any of them mind after a while despite her unconventional sleeping habits

Small note:Kyle is in the same age group as Jason but because i feel he's even more interesting if he starts out being a power ring holder as a teenager and it adds extra tragedy and opportunities to his plots.And they don't actually meet until adulthood-Their mutual connection is Kyle and Summer having been a thing for a short time when they were both teens and Jason being Summer's childhood best friend since they were 11.This notion also applies to Artemis,she gets introduced as a teen hero too instead of that oversexualization bs and keeps her history but just adjusted so she's still Artemis Grace!!

As stated,Jason,Eddie and Rose were the original trio and Jason got them to become Outlaws pretty easily thanks to Eddie having been sidekick besties with him and Summer too and Rose is always up for moral grayness(and is coincedentally another one of Summer's exes-His first ever girlfriend in fact!)and Summer joined post Ember/Red Hood thanks to him and Jason reuniting in Utrh and the series being about them reconnecting as he unintentionally influenced him to become more sardonic and brutal like they were as a kid so the Metropolis media framed them as 'evil all along' and that hurt them so much combined with smear campaign Lex did against them as a kid he worked so hard to disprove for so long that they finally ran away from home and joined The Outlaws like Jason wanted him to so they'd be a team again.He gifted him a black domino mask as 'giving him a piece of himself' to finish off the new costume Summer made.After a decent while of just The Dark Four Core,Pepper came along as the fifth member because of her crush on Summer she'd gained due to their flirtatiouns back in Metropolis that he still returned and they accidentally rescued Thad from dying in a chaotic and quick incident and took him in since he had literally nowhere to go

And the Raven lore by Amrit:Her second ressurection takes place right before Under The Red Hood and the cult that did the ritual chose an indian girl's body because Azarath and Indian are closely linked.She dosen't rejoin the Teen Titans as she feels infantalized at the idea so she takes a year off but once it passes her life is still in shambles-She barely talks to any of her friends,most of her loved ones are dead and so many people are scared of her.Dick hires her to track down Jason and she loves and misses him so much she says yes so she's introduced as the first big Rhato villain but we actually don't know it's her at first and it's a grand reveal.Eddie is the only one who dosen't know who she is as Jason and Summer recognize her from their Robin and Sparks/sidekick days and her and Rose were actually friends during The Titans and the Dark Core Four help her accept her rage in a really cool fight scene,then she calls a truce with them and basically becomes their field medic 2 issues later and teaches them meditation and such practices.She starts patching things up with the other people in her life but her and Dick still argue a lot and when he finds out about her teaming up with The Outlaws,they have a huge fight that ironically makes her decide to officially join them and change her codename but they do eventually repair their relathionship

Pepperose was just a natural thing that happened-They flirted on first meeting mutually and Rose was shellshocked Pepper actually hit on her back and then kinda became obsessed with in a non-creepy way her LMFAO She acts like a booktok bf💀Peps is very happy about it though and they're 'gal pals' for about 50 issues before sealing the deal and doing the official girlfriends thing.Rose calls her Pinkie Pie and Pepper calls her 'my favorite rose'.Pepper dosen't really change all that much other than improved self-eestem and getting stronger(and bustier and curvier as her hrt really hits)but she also kills Slade for good out of love for Rose and that's when Rose kisses her,no holding back anymore and they're married by the 2nd to last issue and Rose's 'Willow' mantle comes in at issue 91 and her arc is a heavy but good one that's all about her being human despite what others say

Kahali was gruesomely murdered by The Joker as he filmed the whole thing and sent a physical copy to Summer with a note that said 'history repeats are as sweet as you are,Dearie Em' because of them being intergenerational best friends and partners on the hero field as Ember and Bloody Mary and he'd even taken on the parental role in his life,not just a mentor anymore after his mom's death and his birth dad being an abusive shitstain and they kept in touch which is how The Joker found Kahali.Summer was catatonic but also stuck in his dragon/Kryptofang form and when he snapped back to conciousness,he flew to Gotham before his cremation ceremony to dunk him in the Lazarus Pit,knowing it's exact location thanks to Talia helping out The Outlaws now and then as Jason's adoptive mom and lead of Taliacorp,the reworked ex-Lexcorp she took over in her run of the same name.Kahali came back with Pit Powers much stronger than Jason's and he rubs it in his face,along with it turning his hair completely white but he still dyes it red and Summer mother hen's him more than ever for obvious reasons(well those and the additional one is Summer also got killed and ressurected by a Gotham Rogue as a sidekick)and Kahali updated himself from Bloody Mary to his current moniker.Tim and him were a very atypical couple on every level but that only made them happier with and better for eachother and Tim entered his villain era as 'Dove' over what happened because he believed Kahali was his soulmate and saviour and even had plans to marry him despite not asking him out yet and ironically enough they reunited on the battlefield without recognizing eachother at first until Tim did first and unmasked himself in shock just like Jason did to Summer in Utrh.Time stood still until they rushed up to kiss in relief and disbelief in Tim's case and they started a secret long distance relathionship after that

Artemis joined for reasons that're a bit complicated to match her origin story but the jist of it is she was living in the normal world and deemed them worthy of her companionhood despite how annoying she found them(especially Jason)and they helped her out with her emotions and better translating her mannerisms and she technically turned into a goddess permanently(and willingly)and Kyle had a lot of crazy ass Lanterns shit happen that had him be forced by his mentors to take a breather and he choose a crosscountry roadtrip and he met his teammates by almost running Eddie over because he was trying to eat freshly made ramen and it got in his eyes.He had a bit of a morals trip with his new friends and old ex boygirlfriend he's still mutually flirty with sometimes to say the least(and ends the run thee White Lantern).There's heavy featuring of his parents and past in this because hooooooo boy,he is a character of all time!!

Duke is the 5th Robin because of Summer's involvement and he got a year in pretty good but then him and Bruce nearly broke apart over a fight and he got so scared of being fired as Robin because of being only a 12 year old technical orphan(jokerized parents and Gnonom for a biodad)he followed Summer's footsteps by ditching Gotham and that was how he meet Jason,who introduced himself as his true identity to him because of Summer's positive talk of him and accepted Duke's ask for shelter and so Duke was now an Outlaw.He wasn't forced to kill but he did become pretty harsh in fights and this caused him angst only for a bit as he was reassured by the older members.In Issue 39,Jason snarks he was just 'The Replacement Robin' and Duke defensively says 'You were always my favorite Robin when i was little!I never even got to see you in action but you're my favorite for good now!' and Jason is taken back and stunned,completely clueless on how to process it and in issue 110,Duke says to Jason '.....I was never a real Robin.I've been with you guys way longer than i ever was with Bruce-' and Jason cuts him off with 'Yeah,no shit you were never Batman's Robin.You're The Outlaws' Robin-You're my Robin and you always have been and you always will be' and Duke breaks down so Jason comforts him and that's when Summer walks in with their Dairy Super and Batburger double flight orders and asks what happened but helps in further comforting him before either even get to explain with Duke thanking him for being the reason he got to take the first step to heroism to which he gets platonically bubbly and flattered and tells him he's the perfect Robin and Duke does a toothy happy grin that takes up most of the last panel in that issue.A text box reads 'Duke Thomas is happy.Jason Todd is happy again,thanks to him.They're eachother's Robin,on purpose and by choice'

All the direct longlasting exposure to so much super science-y and magic jazz and trazz made his power system escelarate and he went from light and darkness powers to straight up reality warping.He gets stuck in a pocket dimension for a hot sec but Summer and Jason pull him out with Thad's help as an expert on that situation.The universe is trying to create the N52 but Duke's Robinhood is stopping it and in an arc of 18 issues to symbolize the 18 core Outlaws,Duke,Summer,Jason,Thad,Kahali,Jennifer,Mathew,Imani,Kyle,Venus,Raven,Eddie,Rose and Pepper get the headfirst headons into helping completely erase even the slimest posibility of the N52 canonizing but ALL The Outlaws are in on it,including an unfringed Tam as our Batgyal and honorary Outlaw for two and a half months at the time!!Duke as our Robin deserves that dramatic ahh 'We love you and always want you with us,nobody else could be our Robin' storyline.Our Sunspot has earned it

Imani gets hired because of her reputation as a leathily effecient spy and she fits right in,crying herself to sleep a few times after they'd been together long enough to call eachother family.She's a gremlin from the start and influences Mathew to be the same and she's close to everybody but Summer and her are interdimensional sisters soulmates a la Percy Jackson and Hazel Levesque and he was the first one to break down her walls and they go out of their way to defend the other nonstop and this helps Summer's eldest daughter syndrome trauma.Catblooded/Vimani starts in a remastered Gotham War which is about them and The Watchers and lest to say they're perfect together and Jason,Kyle,Mathew,Lilith and Jennifer NEVER let them live it down.Lilith's intro is a parody of Batman 357-Instead of stealing his tires,she hacked Jason's computer to leak his old Undertale chats and he begged her to join in humiliating ways only for it to be revealed she only did it for fun and came to join because Summer and him were close friends in their teen years but got seperated due to Hell bussiness.She made sure to take pictures 'to send to Summie of his cringelord ass hubbie'.None of these words are denied by anyone at all

At the same time this was happening,Artemis,Azriel,Thad,Pepper and Duke were on a mission and Artemis was almost fatally wounded but Daisy came in as her angel with healing oitments made with her chlorokinesis and Artemis saw her with a glowing pink halo around her head,too enchanted by her to care about almost dying.Daisy was a duo with Lilith and had the same reasoning as her for being there but they got seperated thanks to a villain attack and they're the team hacker and team botanist.They picked Venus up at a party she was DJ'ing and she started as only an ally but joined them officially in a parallel to Teen Titans 2003!Tara Markov after an angst arc and it actually took her and Kyle a hot sec to get officially together due thinking their attraction was purely physical and her and Pepper did a toon girlypop squee sequence after she got the official Outlaw title as Star Sapphire solidarity.Mathew was having insecurities over not being as good as Summer because he's not as Clark-esque as him

This leads into 'Superguy's Breaking Out' arc,when Lor-Zod infects him with black kryptonite and it functions as an angstified mythology gag to the widely beloved Multicolor Raven Emotions from the Teen Titans cartoon as we get Superguy,Negasuper,Supernega and Guysuper in manifistations of Mat's kindness,anger,envy and creativity and a Krypton heavy arc follows as it leads to the dual swords Kaliodoton and Kryptoscade,the legendary kryptonian swords that were wielded by various kryptonian and kryptofang duos throught Krypton's history and now Mathew Kent and Summer Kent to complete their journey to fix Mat's self-eestem and uncover even more of Fantasma's backstory,the ghost of the last surviving Kryptofang that lives in Summer's head as a DID metaphor(with the following symptoms and required trauma to turn him into a system!).Their quest lasts three weeks and they return to The Fortress to the world's biggest group hug with Mathew especially misty eyed but in a happy way and have a huge cultural fusion dinner they all made together that includes previously lost kryptonian recipes

Jennifer was missing from Gotham because she'd been given Lian's teleported across time and space multiple times storyline due to an accident that happened while on a quest for Solana Banks to restore her lost home dimension Helioas because she thought she'd found an articifact that would but misenterpreted it's powers.Lucky for her,her journey only lasted 1 year instead of multiple and she crashlanded inside The Fortress literally in the middle of The Outlaws video game night.She wasn't ready to live normally again just yet so she stayed and became an official member as a result,from Batgal to Batika.And to complete our family,Azriel had the easiest and most simplistic one-Lilith asked Jason to let her join them because of how strong she is and not having many friends so he accepted and she's actually the goriest of the Outlaws beating even Thee Red Hood in it and this is part of her demonic nature and carries no secret undertones to it.Like Flowergrace,Thadzriel was love at first newbie sight and they have such a sweet middle school dating dynamic

Raven and Kahali take a trip to India to rediscover and reclaim their respective cultures and bond in the process,becoming siblings almost as close as Kahali and Summer.They get matching jhumkas while they're there!!The other ooc(Outlaws of color)all get to visit their motherlands too at some point in the story and Pepper gets a bonus with the Pepperose wedding taking place in Italy

Luna appears in a significant amount of issues but since she's Aquafam she sticks to her own territory most of the time and her and Duke are purely platonic,having met in Robin 2007,with love not blooming until Duke becomes The Signal and leads a new team he made called The Lights with Luna joining as 'Moonguide' and they have a slowburn that spans until their adults years as Eris(Duke)and Selene(Luna).Like Summer to Jason,Luna is the Starfire to Duke's Robin and an honorary Kid Outlaw

Jaysumm's dynamic is childhood best friends and sidekick partners > Enemies only in the technical sense > Best friends again but Jason flirting with Summer constantly and Summer not buying Jason isn't joking because of their history together > Being insuferably obviously in love and Summer's literally the ONLY one who dosen't know > Fwb who act like a couple already with Jason still only knowing it on his side and angst for him as a result > Sneaking off to take Jon off trick or treating in opposite costumes(fairy goddess princess and blood moon werewolf)and Summer's epiphany finally happens so he confesses when they make it home and Jason confesses back so they make out and sleep together literally > Official couple when exactly 11 issues remaining in a 120 part series LMFAO

🎶They don't give a damn about their reputation🎶 < Had to make that joke,mb kings.But yeah they generally don't care about perception from normies and ARE here to unteach propaganda as they fuck around and make people find out the systems are fucked.It's very embarrasing for certain superheroes that the eco-terrorists without the no kill code are better parents to their kids than they are to theirs and their legacy stays even post quasi-disbanment(They keep in contact forever ofc,it's just the plot needed them elsewheres and there's common reunions and video calls)

Culturally fused team,both race and species.Afrolatino and brown latino,kryptonian and amazonian,speedster abonimation and macabita demon,human and meta and so forth.Subculture fused too as they frequently participate in eachother's aesthetics and interests and they're all multilingual.Clashes between them occasionally but never too bad

The genre is like.Superhero comedy but also horror but also fantasy but also sci-fi but also urban fantasy but also surrealism but also romance drama but also psychological thriller????????It's the Homestuck of DC,everything ever happens in Red Hood and The Outlaws 2010-2020.This includes the catgirls and the hyperspecific lore and the weird ass art that's somehow good and the-

The covers always fuck NO exceptions,Summer does meta commentary telling fans to not buy their merch officially and to instead get it secondhand or they'll be dissapointing him but Pepper full on breaks the fourth wall and Jennifer gained the same power from the No N52 Mission and Lilith can too,it has it's own official opening on the official DCAU channel and a few shorts and this includes a pride video like the Bubbline one by Cartoon Network and it stars Jaysumm,Pepper is the most well-known and beloved trans DC character,they're SUPER popular in in Latin America and with latino-americans,it has multiple lego sets and The Outlaws Girls even got their own doll line and they have crossover mini series with Young Justice that's 24 issues and called 'Just Us,No Laws'

Live action cast:Aubrey Joseph as Jason,Booboo Stewart as Eddie,Chelsea Zhang as Rose,Amandla Stenberg as Summer,Lonnie Chavis as Thad,Nicole Maines as Pepper,Avantika Vandanapu as Raven,Jenna Qureshi as Kahali,Issac Ryan Brown as Duke,Trina Mcgee as Imani,Diego Tinocco as Kyle,Imaan Hammam as Artemis,Halle Bailey as Venus,Walker Scobell as Mathew,Teyonah Harris as Daisy,Ruby Baker for Lilith,Riele Dowds as Jennifer,Priah Ferguson as Azriel,Coco Jones as Tam and Shanina Shaik as Talia

The arcs names' in order:Ignite arc,In This City arc,Blood Maker arc,Cat got your tongue? arc,Man's World arc,Superguy! arc,Motherland arc,Speak of the Devil arc,StarWillow arc,Gotham-Hoods arc,Outlawed Robin arc and In with the Outs arc(finale)

There's a Scooby Doo crossover event since it's confirmed DC is canon to the Scoobertverse and it's 27 issues and titled 'Scooby Doo and The Outlaws',a graphic novel by Bryan O'Malley in the Scott Pilgrim artstyle and storytelling font called 'Jason Todd's After Afterlife' and multiple Rhato x Atsv official arts because of Summer inspiring Hobie Brown's recreation as Spiderpunk in the 2010s with Superpunk in the 1990s as a butterfly effect ala Donald Grover and Miles Morakes(and there's even one of Gayatri meeting Kahali and Jaysumm meeting Punkflower)

Formal OC Introdictions - Steph Taylor

Series: The Shieldmaiden Saga

In December 2013, Steph Taylor's life is looking pretty good - she's a physicist at Athena Labs, is working on a force field project that will save hundreds if not thousands of lives and her best friend, Eddie Thawne, is transferring from Keystone to Central City, meaning she'll get to see a lot more of him. Even one of their rivals opening a particle accelerator doesn't get her down - anything that can advance humanity's knowledge of the universe is a plus.

Then the night it's switched on, it explodes, and Steph is knocked out while using the force field technology to protect some of her colleagues. She wakes up the next day unscathed - but others weren't so lucky, and it's clear to her that at the very least there were some serious safety issues overlooked with the damn thing. On top of this, the project she was working on his on hold - the argument being that as it didn't fully protect her, it's no use at all. Two months later this still hasn't been resolved and it's starting to get to her, but it seems this is the least of her problems when a day out with Eddie ends with a gun being fired at him and her rushing to take the bullet...

Only the bullet never hits...because she throws up a force field -the dark matter the accelerator threw out fused the technology to her DNA, and Steph just knows that therefore there must be others out there. Working with Alyssa and Tanya, she practices her own powers while starting to make plans to help these other metahumans, Eddie there by her side - but it's when she's asked to find Hartley Rathaway that things take a darker turn, because it turns out that Harrison Wells, STAR Labs founder, knew full well the accelerator was flawed...and set it off anyway. And Steph won't allow this to stand by - he has to pay for what he's done to the city and to the thousands of people who had their DNA altered without their consent.

But first, she has to ensure that there's a support system for the metahumans, because they're gonna need all the help they can get in the coming months - especially when some people decide to use their powers for bad instead of good.

Eddie Thawne is held hostage by Reverse Flash.

[vexicwrites]

The Strange Case of Dr. Wells & Mr. Thawne

Summary: the start of what may be a series of AUs examining the concept of Eobard framing Harrison rather than killing him

Warnings: none

Harrison didn't know much about the man who had been following him. He'd assumed, initially, that it was only a coincidence that he saw him so often - odd, but not malicious nor intentional. Starling City was, after all, only so big and if they both lived in the same area they were bound to see each other every once in a while. Then he'd gotten some notoriety and he began to wonder if the blond man was a stalker, an obsessed fan - though, that didn't seem right either. He'd been around before the fame and accolades and...he never did anything, Harrison had never even caught him glancing his direction. It really would have seemed entirely coincidental if it weren't for the fact that for the past 15 years every one of his worst days had coincided with a glimpse of the man, even after he'd moved to Central City, too upset by his wife's death to stay. Hell, he was pretty sure he remembered seeing him the day of the car accident that had killed Tess.

Harrison wasn't superstitious but he also wasn't blind, that damn man was a constant silent presence like a foreboding omen. He'd even been in attendance the night the particle accelerator had been turned on - the night everything had gone so horribly, horribly wrong. But, not every visit coincided with a tragedy, at least not that he could see. The man had also been present in the hospital when Harrison had seen Barry Allen code and spoken to Detective Joe West. He'd only seen a glimpse of the blond man but Harrison, perhaps foolishly, had decided that he wasn't going to let this harbringer of misfortune cause anyone else to suffer and convinced the detective to let Barry be taken to S.T.A.R. Labs where he and whatever team he had left could help.

Maybe he should have said something to someone, perhaps he could have prevented any future trouble, but at the time he truly hadn't thought it anything worth bothering Barry or the CCPD about. He had no reasons to bring it up, the man had never actually done anything that he could see, his suspicions were completely irrational. Until they weren't.

The last thing Harrison had expected upon arriving downstairs was Cisco standing in front of what appeared to be The Reverse Flash in the containment field he'd built months ago but in moments, the man in yellow had vanished - a hologram. Cisco looked hurt and betrayed when he turned to face Harrison. Harrison didn't have to be a genius to put the pieces together.

"Cisco-" He started but Cisco cut him off.

"You're him," Cisco said, quiet anger coloring his voice. "You're The Reverse Flash."

Harrison sighed, trying to keep his own emotions under control. "It certainly looks-"

"You killed Barry's mom, you killed all those people! Why?" Cisco asked, voice raising slightly.

"Cisco, I know that you're upset, but I need you to calm down-"

Harrison wheeled forward and Cisco automatically scrambled back, onto the containment unit, afraid. Harrison hadn't expected that, he'd never expected to see such a look on any one of his team's faces.

"No," Cisco said, slamming the on button for the unit. "No. This ends now. I'm not playing your game anymore, you're not using me or Caitlin or Barry ever again!"

Harrison paused, looking over the scared younger man critically, surveying the situation.

"You altered the polarity of the containment field. Smart man. That would probably stop me if I was The Reverse Flash but I am not. You have the wrong man." Harrison said, beginning to lose his patience.

"Stop lying! We know, we all know!"

Harrison wheeled forward again and heard the faint click of the safety on a gun being turned off to his left. Eddie or Joe, maybe both, were present - good information to have. Barry was probably near as well. Harrison wondered how long they'd been planning this setup.

"I promise you that I am not lying to you and I am willing to do whatever you need for you to trust me again - you and Caitlin and Barry. All of you." Harrison said calmly before reversing his wheelchair and wheeling towards the elevator, adding; "by the way, you can come out now."

"You can't just leave!"

Barry. Harrison paused in front of the doors with a resigned sigh though he knew he didn't have to, Barry could easily catch up to him. He couldn't imagine how much time and resources had been wasted on trying to trap him - he was frustrated for himself and on Barry's behalf.

"I'm not going anywhere but back to my lab, Mr. Allen." Harrison said, turning his chair to face the young speedster. "I have work to do but if you are so inclined you are welcome to accompany me. In fact, I'd prefer it if you did, I'd like to see what led you all to the conclusion that I am The Reverse Flash."

He could see the indecision on Barry's face and he felt a wave of sympathy wash over him. It had to be difficult, to be so sure that someone you trusted with your very life was the one trying to destroy it.

"I'm not asking you to trust me again," Harrison said quietly. "I'm asking you to give me the chance to earn that trust back. To prove to you that I am not the man in yellow."

He waited, hoping the young man would give him a chance. He saw the conflict in Barry's hazel eyes, the way his jaw set in silent anger and frustration, but eventually he nodded.

"Fine." He said, gesturing for Harrison to enter the elevator.

Harrison did so, feeling somewhat relieved. He'd have to start from square one with the team but at least he still had a chance.

For the AU headcanon game, AU in which Savitar is someone other than Barry? 👀

So I do remember various theories about Savitar's identity and one of them was Eddie. Which... I did not like that theory, so I'm not gonna go that way.

If it was someone the team knew already, then Eobard is the obvious candidate. In the comics, he's made himself look like Barry a few different ways and so there could be a convoluted plot going on that way, but... they've had enough Eobard Thawne as the bad guy on the show, I wanna speculate on someone new.

So the comics Savitar - New Earth version - was a Cold War pilot whose real identity was never discovered. While at top speed in his fighter plane, he was struck by lightning and survived the crash in hostile territory. This could be updated to him being an air force test pilot for an experimental craft using Dominator tech - foreshadowing the Dominator attack xover event later that season - that gets struck by lightning mid test. The test is classed a failure and the craft is unrecoverable - the man who becomes Savitar is assumed dead but of course he isn't.

Savitar therefor isn't obsessed with killing Iris - his existence doesn't depend on her. Instead perhaps Iris' investigation into Savitar's origins puts her in danger as he doesn't want anyone to know who he used to be - maybe he doesn't even remember and having his identity revealed would detract from the story he's selling the cult he's been creating.

Perhaps Alchemy as a stage one/first half of season boss with Savitar being hinted at until he's revealed at the mid season finale. Savitar could still be the man behind Alchemy, with Julian being unaware that he's been brainwashed to take on the persona of Alchemy under specific triggers. To de brainwash Julian, they bring in Hartley who - in this timeline - used a hypnotic flute in addition to his gloves. Julian thus has to come to terms both with what he did under the brainwashing and with the fact that he is a meta... that it was his rejection and self-hatred over being a meta that gave Savitar the in he needed to control Julian in the first place.

Part of the season's focus is on Barry having to accept that he has no idea how much the changes to the timeline are his fault and how much is stuff that was already gonna happen and he just... didn't know things were leading that way behind the scenes.

Revealing Frost's real origins in this season. Caitlin, panicking, goes to her mom for help and things with Carla eventually unravel to the reveal of Icicle. Frost has to choose between teaming up with Icicle or siding with Caitlin's friends... and chooses Icicle. Only to quickly realize she's in over her head and she turns to Caitlin for advice. The two of them form a truce to defeat Icicle and rejoin Team Flash by surprise!!! during the final Savitar vs Flash fight at the end of the season, which would also include Jesse and Wally as well as Savitar's cult.

Savitar would definitely try to recruit Icicle and Frost into his cult, but I don't see them having any of it. Icicle has his own god complex of a sort going on and Killer Frost just doesn't like him or trust him after Caitlin's experiences with Zoom and the Reverse Flash. If you've met one evil Speedster, you've met them all.

One of the things I did like about show!Savitar was that he was a fallen hero - I'm a Tales game series fan, i love fallen heroes as villains, that's basically the main villain of every Tales game and I eat it up every time. So I think part of the investigation into Savitar would be the reveal that he was a highly decorated hero and he saved a lot of lives. That's why he was tapped for the project. But after being essentially left for dead and his amnesia, Savitar grew to feel he was owed the accolades and devotion and it all warped into the god complex he has now. Forcing him to face his past isn't exactly a tomato in the mirror moment but he's torn between horror over who he's become and his desire for security and safety through the power he's accumulated.

Chapter Fourteen: True Romance (Conner's POV)

Mom called me a few hours after I went home. “Why didn’t you hear me when I called your name earlier?” Mom questioned. 

“Huh? Before I left the—? Before I left the house?” I asked in reply. 

“No, I saw you at the mall… I called you, and you—.”

I shook my head. “I went home. I went straight home, Mom. Did you look at his face?” I questioned.

“No… I must’ve made a mistake. Sorry, sweetheart,” Mom replied, “Did I wake you up?” 

“Nuh-uh… I just got out of the shower. I love you so much, Mom… And thanks for taking care of Bart and me this weekend. I appreciate you so so much,” I whispered. 

“I love you too, Conner. Get some rest. I’ll see you later. Buh-bye,” Mom replied.

“Buh-bye,” I whispered before hanging up. Bart climbed into my bed and started projecting a movie on the wall in front of us. I lay my head on his shoulder. He kissed my forehead like he used to, keeping his eyes trained on the screen. I craned my neck to kiss his throat, and he pulled away. 

“What the fuck are you doing?” Bart whispered. I blinked hard. 

My heart sank. It was humiliating. It was so humiliating that I darted out of the room and hid in Cissie’s bed for an hour. Cissie and Cassie weren’t home yet. I couldn’t face Bart after that. 

**

I was so excited about my brother being alive that I was practically floating on air when I returned to my regular schedule. I felt so alive for the first three weeks until I decided to talk to Reed. After class on Tuesday, I stopped by Reed’s to surprise him. I was all over him from the second I got in the door, but he seemed different. “Conner, can we talk about us for a second?” Reed questioned. 

I leaned back on his couch. “Reed, this is fun. We’ve got our whole lives to be in committed relationships. I just want to have fun right now. Is that so wrong?” I questioned. Reed sighed. “What? Are you bored or something?” 

“Yeah, actually. I’m fed up, Conner. You were in the hospital and didn’t call me. You come over to fuck, and you treat me like I’m nothing more than a dick with a voice attachment. You don’t know anything about me, and we’re not moving forward. It’s always the same thing. We’ve been together for almost three months now and nothing’s changed,” Reed snapped. 

“Nobody’s forcing you to do this. I don’t know what’s crawled up your ass tonight—.” 

“I met somebody, and I wanna know where it’s going with you before I make a decision on what to do,” Reed confessed. I don’t know why he looked so guilt-stricken. The whole point of not being committed to each other was for that reason. It wasn’t like he was cheating on me. 

“You met somebody. That’s fine. Are they looking to commit?” I asked. Reed shrugged. 

“I haven’t—. I haven’t asked him. I wanted to know where your head was at before I said anything to him. He’s been going to book club with me for three weeks now, and we’re getting along so well. He’s never been in a relationship before, so I wanted to be considerate of him,” Reed replied. He swallowed hard like he was about to be sick, and his eyes darted away from me.

I sat there with my tongue in my cheek, holding it between my teeth as I squinted at him. “Do I know him or something?” I asked. 

“Conner, what’s your last name?” Reed questioned. I’m guessing it was in reply to what I said. 

“Kent, like my dad. Why?” I questioned. 

“His last name is Hausler. You two could be brothers And I know it’s weird, but he’s so different. I met him by accident. It’s not like I meant for it to happen, but I—. I’m pretty sure it’s gonna get serious between us soon,” Reed whispered. I went wide-eyed and stared down at my lap. “Conner?” 

“I—. Do you have a picture with him?” I questioned. “Can I see him?” Reed pulled up a picture of my twin, drinking a large cup of coffee. He looked happy. I knew it was him because he had a cut beneath his brown eye. And I smiled as tears threatened to fall from my eyes. I felt sick and overjoyed all at once. 

“Conner, I didn’t mean for this to happen. I just—.”

I hugged Reed. “You should be happy… And I hope you know I’m not pissed about any of this. Thank you,” I smiled. He relaxed in my arms and returned my embrace. 

**

Something shifted when I got home that night. My heart sank as soon as I got in the door, and Bart was there to witness it completely. I wasn’t in the mood to talk to him or look at him. I went to our room and curled up in bed. Cassie knocked and entered a few seconds later. She sat at the foot of the bed and tapped my leg. 

“Back to being cold?” Cassie questioned. 

“Don’t—.”

“What’s going on, Conner?” Cassie asked. I sat up in bed and pulled her into a hug, so she couldn’t see me crying. I was just so overwhelmed. Bart entered the room and tapped Cassie’s shoulder. 

“I wanna talk to him alone for a sec,” Bart replied. Cassie quickly left us alone, and I got out of bed, keeping my face turned away from him. I didn’t want him to see me crying. I didn’t want him to know how badly I needed him. I felt like I was going to snap if he said anything to me. So, my reaction to what he said next would’ve happened no matter what. 

"Does he make love to you?" Bart asked in passing. I backed Bart into a corner, staring into his eyes, wondering why he'd say something like that. My eyes were wild, and his were filled with tears. I wanted to hurt his feelings, but he seemed to do a good job of that for himself. How could I beat that?

"What the fuck did you say?" I snapped. Bart didn't flinch. He knew I wouldn't hit him. I couldn’t hold back my hurt. It wasn’t in me to tell Bart I needed him. I would’ve rather destroyed my relationship with him than admit I had real feelings for him. 

"How does he make you feel?" Bart asked. “Did you fight?” 

"Why do you care?" I asked. Bart didn't answer. "Do you think it's funny? Do you think—?" 

"Does he hold you? Does he know you like your earlobes nibbled on? Does he make your teeth chatter when you cum? Does he make you—?"

"What do you want me to say?" I shouted. Tears fell from his big amber eyes, and I wanted to hate him for crying. I wanted to hate him for backing me into a corner while I had him pinned. I hated him because it felt like he knew I was unfulfilled in every romantic tryst I had after him. He had to know how badly he hurt me. 

"I want you to tell me you love him... I want you to tell me he's not like anyone else and you're done looking. I want you to tell me he makes you weak in the knees, and I was right to let you go. I want you to tell me I'm not hurting for no reason... Tell me you fuck him because you're in love, so I can stop worrying about you—." I kissed him, and for the first time in a long time, he kissed me back. 

"He's no you," I whispered half out of breath and deliriously desperate. I grabbed Bart by his shoulders and kissed his neck with red-hot desperation and he shut his eyes, lifting his chin as he cried. "Bart, I need you. I need you so bad. Please." I stared at him, holding back from kissing him again until he could return the favor. I backed away, giving him space to think and he leaped into my arms, wrapping his legs around me and we hit the ground. 

"Oh shit, Conner—." 

"Kiss me," I laughed.

I saw you were taking au headcannons asks

Captain singh and cisco switch bodies

I think it would be funny

Thank you !

It would definitely end in shenanigans.

It's either metahuman or magic I guess. It's just where it happens...

I suppose option one is this is a crime scene (Cisco's there as the consultant), it's weird but it's not a secret, so at least the rest of C.C.P.D. know it's Captain Singh's orders coming out of Cisco's mouth (even if they aren't taking them quite as seriously as usual)

But if this is Flash related (Captain Singh didn't confirm he knew until later, but he's definitely known about Barry and his superpowers since s1), and they have to try and hide it, and Cisco has to go into C.C.P.D. as Captain Singh, well, it's a good thing he's still got everything from helping Barry on his literal blind date with Patty, because there's no way that's ending well without him actually having David in his ear.

Or even Cisco's out as Vibe fighting the bad guy of the day, David's there with C.C.P.D., they both get blasted. The body switching might not be a secret, but Cisco's identity is

(Well. David figured that one out too, but he's not telling anyone else)

Caitlin is fascinated by the implications of this. Does it prove the existence of the soul? Are their brains somehow sending information to the wrong bodies? What else does this mean for the sense of-

(Well how's she supposed to fix anything if she doesn't understand how it works, Cisco.)

Do Cisco's powers switch too? Because it would be one thing for Captain Singh to be pretty sure Barry's the Flash and Cisco's Vibe and another to have that confirmation by getting a vibe and suddenly he can see this weird spaceship crashing and it makes no sense at all

("That's probably just the Legends again, ignore them," Cisco said. "They screw with time and give me weird dreams literally all the time. Did I ever tell you guys about the one where they erased Star Wars? Also Eobard Thawne ruled the world one time with Damien Darhk and Malcolm Merlyn and Leonard Snart and they all super murdered all of us but I can't believe the Legends managed to erase Star Wars and Indiana Jones")

But if that's how it goes then Cisco's suddenly back to no powers and feels useless (until the corridor chat with Barry reminds him that Cisco didn't have powers when they started this, and he still kept Barry alive the whole time using just his brain).

Bad guy of the week definitely wants to fight Vibe. Maybe they did this trying to get Cisco's powers for themself. Maybe it's just bad timing, either way Cisco has to give David the run down, and he talks about all these incredible things he just does without even thinking about what he's doing any more so casually and David definitely gains a new respect for Cisco after this.

Maybe they switch back just because whatever it is runs out. Maybe they convince bad guy of the week to switch them back.

Maybe there's a version where Eddie lived and Barry and Iris are Barry and Iris, stuck together like glue but this time around she's engaged to Eddie (though the three of them have an idea when they get to the kids stage, to prevent an Eobard happening, but that's a long way off yet). Barry's been acting kind of weird lately though (weird even for him), and everyone's pretty sure something's going on with him-

Giving his boyfriend a peck on the cheek after he said something really brilliant and finding out magic things really do follow the kisses break curses rules because now instead of his boyfriend standing in front of him it's his boss was really not on the cards for how Barry wanted to tell everyone he's dating Cisco now.

Thank you!

Red Hood and The Outlaws rewrite

Co-made by me,@insomniac-jay,@moonage-gaydream,@mayameanderings,@theautisticcentre and @refrigeratedboombursts.It is a BIG ASS FUCKING MONSTER

Starts in 2010 and ends in 2020 with 120 issues

The lineup is,in joining order:Jason Todd(Red Hood and briefly a Star Sapphire),Eddie Bloomberg(Red Devil),Rose Wilson(Ravager),Summer Kent(Ignite and brierly a Black Lantern),Pepper Jackson(Star Sapphire),Thaddeus Thawne(Inertia),Kahali Roy(Bloody Mary),Duke Thomas(Robin),Imani Javiera(Panthress),Kyle Rayner(Green Lantern),Artemis Grace(Artemis of Bana-Mighdall),Venus Sparks(Star Sapphire),Mathew Wayne(Batboy and briefly a Green Lantern),Lilith Morningstar(Hex)and Daisy Hilliard(Paradisia),Jennifer Williams(Batgal) and Azriel Morningstar(Ghoul)

Jason,Eddie and Rose are the 'Original Outlaws Trinity' and them and Summer are the 'Dark Core Four'.Jason is the founder and leader and Summer his right hand man who takes over when he can't

Almost all trans and autistic with Pepper as the token allistic and Mathew the token cis.Jason is afro-dominican,Rose and Artemis are brownskin and brown eyed,Summer is a half white afrolatina(dominican),Thaddeus is half black too,Kahali is indian(sindhi-bengali),Imani is afro-puerto rican and Venus,Lilith,Azriel,Daisy and Jennifer are monoracial black women.Jason,Summer,Imani and Lilith are also fat and Jaysumm is tank4tank

Sometimes a found family can be 17 crazy ass vigilantes who some of weren't even vigilantes at first

The series is very goofy and silly often and in it's fundemental spirit but equally dark and layered in the same sense and is heavy on gags,jokes,violence and social talk.It also takes place over 3 in-universe years

The canon couples are Jason/Summer,Eddie/Lilith,Rose/Pepper,Thad/Azriel,Kahali/Tim Drake,Duke/Luna Vasquéz,Imani/Vicia López,Kyle/Venus,Artemis/Daisy and Mathew/Jennifer.The other adult Outlaws view eachother with very strong platonic love that can be taken as polyamorous love except Summer and Imani who are sisterly and the kid Outlaws are seen as younger siblings by them with Thad also being considered their adoptive son-By Summer especially and he straight up views him as his mom

Jason is goth punk,Eddie is a metalhead,Rose is goth butch,Summer is pastel punk,Pepper is y2k,Thad is a skater,Kahali is whimsigoth,Duke is a fashionista,Imani is black y2k,Kyle is losercore-i mean distinct,Artemis is a jock,Venus is ghetto fabulous,Mathew is weirdcore,Lilith is scenemo,Daisy is a softgirl,Jennifer is a prep and Azriel is kidcore

Summer is the Team Mom and Jason the Team Dad and they're nicknamed 'Supermom and Dadhood' as a teasing joke that they only embrace post getting together(And yet somehow this dosen't stop Jason from saying Summer is a milf with complete honesty and zero hesitation)

Their base is called The Fortress-named by Summer obviously-and it's an old abandoned huge residence that they started living in after exorsicing it due to investigation leading them there and the moving in decision was made because the beings in it agreed to bless it with eternal running water and electricity as a thank you for helping them move onto the afterlife at last.Everyone has their own room with their own tricked out aesthetic but it's common for them to share their beds and Imani refuses to actually sleep alone,not that any of them mind after a while despite her unconventional sleeping habits

Small note:Kyle is in the same age group as Jason but because i feel he's even more interesting if he starts out being a power ring bearer as a teenager and it adds extra tragedy and opportunities to his plots.And they don't actually meet until adulthood-Their mutual connection is Kyle and Summer having been a thing for a short time when they were both teens and Jason being Summer's childhood best friend since they were 11.This notion also applies to Artemis,she gets introduced as a teen hero too instead of that oversexualization bs and keeps her history but just adjusted so she's still Artemis Grace!!

As stated,Jason,Eddie and Rose were the original trio and Jason got them to become Outlaws pretty easily thanks to Eddie having been sidekick besties with him and Summer too and Rose is always up for moral grayness(and is coincedentally another one of Summer's exes-His first ever girlfriend in fact!)and Summer joined post Ember/Red Hood thanks to him and Jason reuniting in Utrh and the series being about them reconnecting as he unintentionally influenced him to become more sardonic and brutal like they were as a kid so the Metropolis media framed them as 'evil all along' and that hurt them so much combined with smear campaign Lex did against them as a kid he worked so hard to disprove for so long that they finally ran away from home and joined The Outlaws like Jason wanted him to so they'd be a team again.He gifted him a black domino mask as 'giving him a piece of himself' to finish off the new costume Summer made.After a decent while of just The Dark Four Core,Pepper came along as the fifth member because of her crush on Summer she'd gained due to their flirtatiouns back in Metropolis that he still both returned and they accidentally rescued Thad from dying in a chaotic and quick incident and took him in since he had literally nowhere to go

Pepperose was just a natural thing that happened-They flirted on first meeting mutually and Rose was shellshocked Pepper actually hit on her back and then kinda became obsessed with in a non-creepy way her LMFAO She acts like a booktok bf💀Peps is very happy about it though and they're 'gal pals' for about 50 issues before sealing the deal and doing the official girlfriends thing.Rose calls her Pinkie Pie and Pepper calls her 'my favorite rose'.Pepper dosen't really change all that much other than improved self-eestem and getting stronger but she also kills Slade for good out of love for Rose and that's when Rose kisses her,no holding anymore and they're married by the 2nd to last issue and Rose's codename dosen't stay Ravager for the whole series as she eventually uses the 'Willow' mantle and her arc is a heavy but good one that's all about her being human despite what others say

Kahali was gruesomely murdered by The Joker as he filmed the whole thing and sent a physical copy to Summer with a note that said 'history repeats are as sweet as you,Dearie Em'.Summer was catatonic but also stuck in his dragon/Kryptofang form and when he snapped back to conciousness,he flew to Gotham before his cremation ceremony to dunk him in the Lazarus Pit,knowing it's exact location thanks to Talia helping out The Outlaws now and then as Jason's adoptive mom.Kahali came back with Pit Powers that were much stronger than Jason's and he rubs it in his face,along with it having turned his hair completely white but he still dyes it red and Summer mother hen's him more than ever for obvious reasons(well those and the additional one is Summer also got killed and ressurected by a Gotham Rogue as a sidekick)and Kahali updated himself to 'Blood Maker'.Tim and him were a very atypical couple on every level but that only made them happier with and better for eachother and Tim entered his villain era as 'Dove' over what happened because he believed Kahali was his soulmate and saviour and even had plans to marry him despite not asking him out yet and ironically enough they reunited on the battlefield without recognizing eachother at first until Tim did first and unmasked himself in shock just like Jason and Summer.Time stood still until they rushed up to kiss in relief and disbelief in Tim's case and they started a secret long distance relathionship after that

Artemis joined for reasons that are a bit complicated to match her origin story but the jist of it is she was living in the normal world and deemed them worthy of her companionhood despite how annoying she found them(especially Jason)and they helped her out with her emotions and better translating her mannerisms and technically turned into a goddess permanently(and willingly)and Kyle had a lot of crazy ass Lanterns shit happen that had him be forced by his mentors to take a breather and he choose a crosscountry roadtrip and he met his teammates by almost running Eddie over because he was trying to eat freshly made ramen and it got in his eyes.He a bit of morals trip with his new friends and old ex boygirlfriend he's still mutually flirty with sometimes to say the least(and ends the run a White Lantern).There's heavy featuring of his parents and past in this because hooooooo boy,he is a character of all time!!

Duke is the 5th Robin because of Summer's involvement and he got a year in pretty good but then him and Bruce nearly broke apart over a fight and he got so scared of being fired as Robin because of being only a 12 year old technical orphan(jokerized parents)he followed Summer's footsteps by ditching Gotham and that was how he meet Jason,who introduced himself as his true identity to him because of Summer's positive talk of him and accepted Duke's ask for shelter and so Duke was now an Outlaw.He wasn't forced to kill but he did become pretty harsh in fights and this caused him angst only for a bit as he was reassured by the older members.Duke says to Jason in issue 110 '.....I was never a real Robin.I've been with you guys way longer than i ever was with Bruce-' and Jason cuts him off with 'Yeah,no shit you were never Batman's Robin.You're The Outlaws' Robin-You're my Robin and you always have been and you always will be' and Duke breaks down so Jason comforts him and that's when Summer walks in with their Dairy Super and Batburger double flight orders and asks what happened but helps before either even get to explain with Duke thanking him for being the reason he got to take the first step to heroism to which he gets platonically bubbly and flattered and tells him he's the perfect Robin and Duke does a toothy happy grin that takes up most of the last panel in that issue

Duke is also a reality warper because of Gnomon so he stopped the N52 from existing in his Robin run🙏🏼Duke is our god,please praise him

Imani gets hired because of her reputation as a leathily effecient spy and she fits right in,crying herself to sleep a few times after they'd been together long enough to call eachother family.She's a gremlin from the start and influences Mathew to be the same and she's close to everybody but Summer and her are interdimensional sisters soulmates a la Percy Jackson and Hazel Levesque and he was the first one to break down her walls and they go out of their way to defend the other nonstop and this helps Summer's eldest daughter syndrome trauma.Catblooded/Vimani starts in a remastered Gotham War which is about them and The Watchers and lest to say they're perfect together and Jason,Kyle,Mathew,Lilith and Jennifer NEVER let them live it down.Lilith's intro is a parody of Batman 357-Instead of stealing his tires,she hacked Jason's computer to leak his old Undertale chats and he begged her to join in humiliating ways only for it to be revealed she only did it for fun and came to join because Summer and him were close friends in their teen years but got seperated due to Hell bussiness.She made sure to take pictures 'to send to Summie of his cringelord ass hubbie'.None of these words are denied by anyone at all

At the same time this was happening,Artemis,Azriel,Thad,Pepper and Duke were on a mission and Artemis was almost fatally wounded but Daisy came in as her angel with healing oitments made with her chlorokinesis and Artemis saw her with a glowing pink halo around her head,too enchanted by her to care about almost dying.Daisy was a duo with Lilith and had the same reasoning as her for being there but they got seperated thanks to a villain attack and they're the team hacker and team medic.They picked Venus up at a party she was DJ'ing and she started as only an ally but joined them officially in a parallel to Teen Titans 2003!Tara Markov after an angst arc and it actually took her and Kyle a hot sec to get officially together due thinking their attraction was purely physical and her and Pepper did a toon girlypop squee sequence after she got the official Outlaw title as Star Sapphire solidarity.Mathew kept getting told by Gotham City-The sentient city itself-he needed to leave for now since Jennifer was missing so he gave in and he was welcomed with open arms,platonic kisses,food and appropriate training

But in a mini arc called 'Batboy's Breakout' the adult Outlaws go on mission without him despite him being the eldest and it makes him feel not good enough after the buildup of not being able to protect the other kids a few times before so when he hears of a breakout at Blackgate at bedtime,he sneaks out,stops it and kills Penguin(his birth parents' murderer)and stops an Arkham breakout too and then goes solo after leaving a note at the Fortress.They're super upset but almost all of them trust him to take care of himself with Summer as the exception thanks to how maternal he is and how he was the only one other than Kahali who was really close to him pre-Rhato.Mathew is a solo hero for roughly half a year and defeats Slade during his run before he comes back to The Outlaws and tackled in the world's biggest group hug and showered in words of love and reminisced sadness and he's misty eyed touched because he missed them too after the resentment wore off.His new hero name is 'Bladebat' for his magic sword he crafted himself while on the run

Jennifer was missing because she'd been given Lian's teleported across time and space multiple times storyline due to an accident that happened while on a quest for Solana Banks to restore her lost home dimension Helioas because she thought she'd found an articifact that would but misenterpreted it's powers.Lucky for her,her journey only lasted 1 year instead of multiple and she found her way back to Mathew's spot-Her safe spot.She wasn't ready to live normally again just yet so she stayed in the Fortress and became an official member as a result under 'Batika'.And to complete our family,Azriel had the easiest and most simplistic one-Lilith asked Jason to let her join them because of how strong she is and not having many friends so he accepted and she's actually the goriest of the Outlaws beating even Thee Red Hood in it and this is part of her demonic nature and carries no secret undertones to it.Like Flowergrace,Thadzriel was love at first newbie sight and they have such a sweet middle school dating dynamic

Luna appears in a significant amount of issues but since she's Aquafam she sticks to her own territory most of the time and her and Duke are purely platonic with love not blooming until Duke becomes The Signal and leads a new team he made called The Lights with Luna joining as 'Moonguide' and they have a slowburn that spans until their adults years as Eris(Duke)and Selene(Luna)

Jaysumm's dynamic is childhood best friends and sidekick partners > Enemies only in the technical sense > Best friends again but Jason flirting with Summer constantly and Summer not buying Jason isn't joking because of their history together > Being insuferably obviously in love and Summer's literally the ONLY one who dosen't know > Fwb who act like a couple already with Jason still only knowing it on his side and angst for him as a result > Sneaking off to take Jon off trick or treating in opposite costumes(fairy and werewolf)and Summer's epiphany finally happens so he confesses when they make it home and Jason confesses back so they make out > Official couple when exactly 11 issues remaining in a 120 part series LMFAO

🎶They don't give a damn about their reputation🎶 < Had to make that joke,mb kings.But yeah they generally don't care about perception from normies and ARE here to unteach propaganda as they fuck around and make people find out the systems are fucked.It's very embarrasing for certain superheroes that the eco-terrorists without the no kill code are better parents to their kids than they are to theirs and their legacy stays even post quasi-disbanment(They keep in contact forever ofc,it's just the plot needed them elsewheres and there's common reunions and video calls)

Culturally fused team,both race and species.Afrolatino and brown latino,kryptonian and amazonian,speedster abonimation and macabita demon,human and meta and so forth.Subculture fused too as they frequently participate in eachother's aesthetics and interests and they're all multilingual.Clashes between them occasionally but never too bad

The genre is like.Superhero comedy but also horror but also fantasy but also sci-fi but also urban fantasy but also surrealism but also romance drama but also psychological thriller????????It's the Homestuck of DC,everything ever happens in Red Hood and The Outlaws 2010-2020.This includes the catgirls and the hyperspecific lore and the weird ass art that's somehow good and the-

The covers always fuck NO exceptions,Summer does meta commentary telling fans to not buy their merch officially and to instead get it secondhand or they'll be dissapointing him but Pepper full on breaks the fourth wall,it has it's own official opening on the official DCAU channel and a few shorts and this includes a pride video like the Bubbline one by Cartoon Network and it stars Jaysumm,Pepper is the most well-known and beloved trans DC character,they're SUPER popular in in Latin America and with latino-americans,it has multiple lego sets and The Outlaws Girls even got their own doll line and they have crossover mini series with Young Justice that's 24 issues and called 'Just Us,No Laws'

Top 10 Ships Including POC in 10 Different Fandoms

Round 1 (?)

Tagged by @a-lil-bi-furious thank you babe I love these tag games so much and I’ll always take any opportunity to talk about my ships <3

1. Scott McCall/Stiles Stilinski/Malia Tate - Teen Wolf

They are my sweet precious babies and they deserved to be endgame. I was originally just going to do sciles but I truly believe Malia should be there, too.

2. Jeremy Gilbert x Anna Zhu — The Vampire Diaries

The TVD writers did them so dirty, they were so good together and I was heartbroken over Anna’s death.

3. Iris West x Barry Allen x Eddie Thawne - The Flash

I genuinely loved Iris/Eddie and obviously there’s Iris/Barry and then throw in Barry/Eddie, too?? The three of them would have been great together. (It’s the only gif I could find of the three of them 😩)

4. Suki Panesar x Eve Unwin - EastEnders

They have been through much and I am SCARED of what is going to happen to them, but I am holding out hope for their New Years’ wedding!!

5. Leah Barnes x Vicky Grant - Hollyoaks

I miss them so much, can Leah please come back and stop Vicky from self-destructing </3

6. Shawn Hunter x Angela Moore - Boy Meets World

I hate the writers (especially of GMW) for what they did to them. They should’ve found each other and gotten back together (they should never have broken up in the first place).

7. Quinn Fabray x Mercedes Jones - Glee

They are very special to me. I HATE that the writers completely forgot about them and the fact that Quinn lived with Mercedes and asked for her to be at Beth’s birth!

The timeline’s in danger , he thinks frantically, the timeline’s in danger – Eobard Thawne is attempting to break time and he’s using Nora West-Allen to do so. Help me get there so I can prevent that. Help me get there in a way that won’t do more damage. The silence stretches on for an eternity as he runs. The silence lasts barely a second as he runs. Then a voice, familiar and yet not, answers. The timeline is on the brink and the multiverse is under threat. Trust your instincts, Theodore Edward Thawne, child of the Speed Force – focus on Nora West-Allen… and run. When , he wonders, when? You know when. And somehow he does and he runs and he runs and he runs and—

I knew almost from the start that one of the trickiest parts of to live with (the echoes of the past) would be writing the Speed Force itself, particularly from the point of view of another character. This is an multi-dimensional force of nature with blue and orange morality and Theodore is having to try and connect with it to run back in time, and I wasn't confident in trying to get across his experiences - after all, it's not like this is a problem in real life.

Then I was wondering whether it would show up as someone or not, or at least be the voice of someone, but I couldn't figure out who - Eddie wouldn't make any sense because (as of yet) he hasn't met the man, and yet there weren't exactly many other candidates, and I wasn't sure how Theodore would talk to the Speed Force...

But then I remembered that speedsters are seen as children of the SF so they're going to have an easier time in doing so - the exact details I've left vague, but it gets the point across, especially with the SF willing to help him. The voice is familiar to him and yet he can't place it, and I was able to show how weird time is within the SF by having it feel like ages and yet not very long between Theodore's pleading and the SF's answer, and then his instincts, boosted by the SF, lead him to where he wants to go...

I'll probably not do that many time-travel scenes like this, but I'll also never say never, and of course the more I write the better and more confident I'll get - and the SF will manifest itself to Theodore at some point. I think this is a pretty good introduction.
