I gave myself a writing challenge and I am fascinated by it
So basically I put the robins in a randomizer to give them a new order/role (because I just...kinda wanted to see what would happen + I like role-reversal AUs) and got results that are giving me a fucking brain blast.
Stephanie, the first sidekick who defines the role
Tim, the sidekick who dies and comes back wrong
Dick, the sidekick who saves Batman from himself
Damian, the sidekick who was never supposed to be a sidekick but would go on to prove everyone wrong
Jason, the youngest sidekick who is still the Kid Wonder
...So this is fucking wild. I've got some ideas and several of these fit perfectly (Dick's role is pretty similar to his one in canon), but some of these are fucking INCREDIBLE to explore (Steph being the first Robin is something I never even considered but tbh I kinda love it).
I probably won't write a fic or anything because tbh I don't like publishing my writing that much, but I might expand this into a full AU and post about it. I might randomize other stuff too (ie, stuff that I cannot change vs stuff that I cannot keep the same) but this fucking rules as a starting point.
#uhhh what am I calling this??#randomizedrobinsau#stephanie brown#oh my god I am so excited to figure out how tf to write this.#because she's my favorite of these characters and having HER be the first sidekick + the one who has a mentor/older sister relationship#with the others?? kickass. though I'll probably keep her and Tim's relationship as 'dating-then-exes' because I think it's funny#and then SHE can be the Robin who Tim got fixated on + figured out her identity?? holy fuck and then the angst of Tim later dying#Tim Drake#tbh I kinda wish he'd gotten a different position because 'sidekick who dies' Tim has kinda been done a lot with the standard#reverse robin aus. But it'll still be fun to write. Definitely going the Joker Junior route with this because Batman Beyond kicks ass#Dick Grayson#He'll honestly probably be the easiest. Like...his role has not changed much outside of being younger/not the one who defines this#But I still think it'll be good to see how well I know Dick beyond his eldest brother thing (which is my best way of relating to him)#Damian al ghul#damian wayne#oh this is gonna kick ass#Bruce does not want his son to be a sidekick but Damian just kinda forces his way into that role#and everybody doubts him because of his history with the league but he later proves himself more than capable#to the point that he can set out mostly on his own and still thrive#Jason Todd#Jason being the baby of the family is also something I have never thought about but holy shit it could kick ass#I really hope that I don't roll 'Jason must die' or 'Robin 5 must die' on the randomizer. I just kinda want Jason to live this time#But unfortunately I double-screwed him because he's on the 'must happen' wheel twice now. I did not think these prompts through#TBH I am so happy that none of them rolled their OG roles. because that would have been so fucking boring

“omg the fandom is dying!” it just got marginally less activity which happens naturally over time if not given any canon content for awhile. if the fandom is big enough it won’t burn out for a long time. even the smallest fandoms i’ve seen still have a minimal spark. calm the fuck down

Guess who woke up with words in their head? One each Couples Retreat AU where the Team Tennyson loses, arguments are had, crises occur, and things change.
~~
The worst part was losing. The worst part was seeing Gwen’s worried face out the corner of his eye. The worst part was being at anyone’s mercy. The pride on Darkstar’s face. The certainty mirrored on Ben’s as Charmcaster stepped forward. Biting back a scream as he was rende
“What the fuck are you doing?!”
And everything flipped over.
Kevin blinked away enough of the pain to see, did his best to ignore ‘I almost died again’ echoing in his mind. Gwen and Ben were still there, Charmcaster and Darkstar were still there. Without thought or pause, this was life or death (‘I almost died again’) he tried to work out their angle.
“I’m finishing them,” Charmcaster said with a sharp-edged smile, yanking her wrist from Darkstar’s grip. “It’s what you do when your enemies are down.”
“No. Not happening.”  There was something familiar about his expression, hard to make out with a contact missing. Kevin could make out Charmcaster’s answering scowl fine enough, it practically echoed through the room.
“You’re the one who wanted them dealt with.”  She turned away from him as she said it, back to the rest of them (‘I almost died again’). With a quick sidestep Darkstar was between them, back and shoulders straight, exuding as much authority as he could.
“I wanted revenge, not murder.” His expression, finally, caught Kevin about between the eyes.
It was the same one from back in that damn subway tunnel, so long ago.
“Oh, Mike.” Somehow his stomach, already fallen through at his realization, dropped further at the change in Charmcaster’s tone. He recognized that too. Full of unsaid ‘you can trust me’s, ‘I’m right you don’t know it yet’s, ‘you poor thing’s. Recognized the soft smile on her face as she reached up to cup Da- Mike’s, a man saved your life you used his name- to cup Mike’s face. He tensed under her touch. “Don’t worry, you’ll learn how these things work in time.”
Kevin couldn’t have told you when he moved. One moment he was trying to pull himself together, eyes locked on the enemy. Charmcaster was leaning up for a kiss. Then, he was hitting her with his full weight.
They skid several yards over the stone floor, Kevin’s lips pulled back in a snarl as he tried to get a new armor while in motion. Tried. A blast of magic sent him flying as they neared a stop, colliding back first against a far wall with a nasty crack and searing pain. Not the worst he’d felt, not the worst he’d felt in the last five minutes, but enough for him to hit the floor like a sack of potatoes.
“You just don’t know when to stay down, do you?” She was glaring daggers at him, and Kevin shot a wide, toothy grin back. Tried to make a comment about smart Levin’s dying young (‘I almost died again’) but only managed a few ragged coughs.
“Charmcaster, please listen to me-” Finally, he looked towards his team, just enough of a quick glance to see them helping each other up from the floor. Gwen looked torn, Ben looked determined, both here in one piece, that was all he needed. Especially when another spell was coming his way and moving hurt-
A golden blast of energy just past her head brought Charmcaster up short, magic fizzling in her hand as it took a chunk of the floor off in the distance.
“I said enough, Hope.” The look she threw at Mike- stood there with energy pooled in his hands, glare so much like Ben’s had been Kevin almost looked away- was wide-eyed and betrayed. Another coughing fit hit Kevin as he tried to snort a laugh. Really, after the shit she’d pulled she was going to be upset someone turned on her? After even just the shit she’d done to him specifically? (‘I almost died again’)
“You just-”
“The next one won’t be a warning.” Tension danced electric through the room as Charmcaster finished climbing off the floor, eyes narrowing into a glare of her own.
“After I’ve given you everything-”
“I never asked, and sure as shit didn’t agree to the price.” Her mouth twisted, like she would cry or she would scream. Mike stood firm. Kevin pushed his pain aside, struggling to his feet. Gwen tried to step between the other magic users, an attempt at reason visible on her lips, in the heartbeat before Ben pulled her back out of the way of the first spell.
The fight was back on.
~~
No one spoke as they stepped out the door, though Kevin wondered about the viability of just tearing it apart. Certainly, it would save at least him a lot of future trouble. But he was pretty sure some bones were at least bruised, Gwen would have his ass if he even tried, and-
“I’m sorry.”
The halting words brought everybody up short. Ben brought up a knuckle to work at one of his ears as the three of them turned, all wide-eyed and gaping, to Mike. He wasn’t meeting any of their gazes, back and shoulders so straight they were almost stiff. Before anyone could try to break the tension with a smart remark, he spoke again.
“If I- If I’d known how far she would take things, I never would have mentioned you.” He was frowning as he spoke, the slightest shaking to his hands, the echo of something that was almost pleading in his voice. “I didn’t know, I- I never wanted anyone dead.”
“We know,” Kevin found himself saying without a second thought. Ben and Gwen looked at him like they weren’t so sure but-
But he knew the expression Mike had had in there like he knew all the rest of his sins. He knew what he could see stealing into his eyes, now that everyone was safe and the adrenaline was dying down. It was one he’d found in a grimy mirror in a condemned bathroom, the scents of ozone and burnt flesh fresh in his nose. The twisting, nauseating knowledge that things had gone too far. That it was all your fault. The sort of thing that settled into you and never left, no matter what you piled on top or what corner you shoved it in.
(‘I almost died again’)
He threw on a smile he hoped was more soothing than he felt.
“Thanks for finding that one moral of yours when you did.” Mike gave a single, tiny snort of a laugh, clapping his hand over his mouth straight after. When he dropped it there was a fake smile Kevin could have seen through without any contacts sat there.
“You’re welcome.” The smile only lasted a moment though, shrinking down as he looked Kevin over. “Are you, alright?” From the tension you’d think it pained him to ask. Then again if it was him in his position Kevin was pretty sure it would. Still, the words seemed to break something in the tension, all eyes turning his way as Gwen grabbed his arm.
“You hit that wall pretty hard,” she said, frown marring her face as she checked him over, grazing fingers over his back. He kept the smile on, though he was half sure the others could see through it as easily as he saw through Mike’s attempts a calm, and bit back the signs of pain when she touched spots he hoped weren’t broken, the hurt that she acted like the question wast about the wall and not
(‘I almost died again I almost died again I almost died again Gwendolyn say it admit it acknowledge it the way you acknowledge my murderer is hurting for fuck’s sake please I love you I died for you I almost died-’)
“I’ve had worse,” he said, not entirely a lie. None of them looked convinced though. Ben seemed like he was meeting his eyes only because he might vanish otherwise, Gwen’s grip on him tightened, and behind the straight face he thought Mike might vomit.
Wouldn’t blame him, he wanted to himself.
“That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t still see a doctor,” Gwen said in a tone that translated to ‘you’re seeing a doctor’. Kevin didn’t have it in him to argue, even if he’d wanted to. After everything, he really wasn’t in the mood to just, hope things healed right on their own.
“Yeah,” Ben said, throwing on a smile of his own as he stepped forward, “last thing we need is you in a million pieces again.”
“One time,” Kevin joked, or at least tried to. The proper tone just couldn’t seem to make it out of his throat. (‘I almost died again’) He sighed, ignoring the pain in his chest, and stole a look at Mike, edging away like he was intruding on something private. Like he wasn’t part of tonight’s mess. “Call a cab? I ain’t walking all that way, and I want a quick chat with our resident vampire.”
The Tennysons both frowned, threw suspicious looks Mike’s way. Kevin let them. Mike let them. It wasn’t unearned concern, after all.
“Three minutes,” Ben eventually said, just like Kevin’d known he would. Gwen took longer, glaring painful death before slowly nodding her head and following her cousin off to the side. There was silence between the boys as they watched them leave earshot.
“So…” Kevin said, foot giving an awkward shuffle as they faced each other, “are you okay?” Mike blinked, once, twice, before giving another small smile.
“I’ll be fine. Just… wasn’t expecting any of that.”
“You don’t know her like we do.” Kevin shook his head. “Just, wanted to make sure. Times fucky in there, and…” ‘And I’ve dealt with her enough to worry about anybody.’ Fingers tapped against Mike’s pants for a moment before he balled up one hand and laid the back of it against Kevin’s arm.
“I’ll be fine,” he reiterated, and while the look in his eye said it was half for show… Well, what could he do about that? He certainly hadn’t figured out the secret to not being haunted by past mistakes. Instead, Kevin just nodded, chewing his lip.
“Good. I’m, glad.” He was. But also- “I wanted to say sorry.” Mike froze, face twisting into a frown. Kevin just took a deep breath- it was something that’d been on his mind for a good while, and after that night, it was hard to keep shoving it down.
“I’ve been to Incarcecon,” he said and tried to ignore the realization in Mike’s eyes. “I didn’t know Morgg had taken charge, didn’t know what he was doing, but…” Another breath. “Wouldn’ta let them drag you away if I’d known that shit was gonna happen to you.”
“Ah.” Mike licked his lips, took a deep breath. Silence fell over the two of them, neither meeting the other’s eyes. Both fidgeting in their own way, Mike less obviously than Kevin. “A question? Unrelated?”
“Yeah?”
“When you tackled her,” he gestured back towards the door, let the question trail off. Something familiar twisted in Kevin’s gut.
“You don’t want to know,” he said. “Just- Just trust me, and stay the fuck away from her.” He didn’t know the details, he couldn’t know the details, but still Mike’s face lost a touch of color.
“Alright.” He nodded slowly. “We’ll call that even then.” Face twisting, Kevin opened his mouth and couldn’t get a word in
“You didn’t stop me ending up with… that… But, you did stop whatever Charmcaster was doing. That evens it out.” That-
“Time! Come on, Kev, we’ve got a cab coming!” Ben’s voice cut through the awkwardness of the scene, drew a quick snort of laughter from Kevin and a small smile from Mike.
“One sec!” As the hand dropped from his arm, Kevin flashed another, slightly truer smile. “You’re a dipshit, Morningstar,” he said, gratified at the small shrug he saw in return, “but you did good back there. Try leaning a little more into that.” Mike just sighed, smile still on his face, and he was probably just imagining the bit of relief in his eyes.
“Goodbye, L- Kevin.”
“Bye.” They both turned, practically in unison, in opposite directions, but Kevin only made it a few steps. The guy had saved his life (‘I almost died again’) and that was a serious debt. “Mike.”
“Hm?” He didn’t turn. He was pretty sure Mike didn’t either. The Tennysons were waiting, but they’d be fine.
“You know I, get it.” There was silence. They both knew exactly what he was talking about.
“…I know.” Kevin took a deep breath.
“If you ever decide you don’t want that shit hanging over you anymore… Hit me up.”
Again, everything was quiet. The Tennsyons looked to be getting concerned now. More concerned now. Not like he could blame them, but… He knew what he had to do. He did it. Greatest strength greatest weakness.
“I’ll keep it in mind.”
He could taste Mike taking off, his energy signature fading up and away. It was all the signal his body needed to start walking again, throwing on a smile for the Tennysons as they crowded him. Began leading the way to a place they could all sit and wait for their cab. They asked no questions, he gave no answers, just leaned his weight on Gwen, tried to assess his injuries. Clear his mind. (‘I almost died again’)
It wasn’t the worst night he’d ever had.

genuinely so angry and scared im shaking. how many other times this week this month this year have i been exposed without knowing it. do people even tell each other anymore. it’s just so grim. it’s so fucking grim
#purrs#delete later#covid19#i am fighting for my fucking life every day to stay safe and to keep the people around me some of whom are disabled / chronically ill /#immunocompromised / medically vulnerable safe. i am fucking fighting for my life. it’s already hard that i am usually one of two people in#any given room still wearing a mask let alone an n95 mask. hard and bad enough that we get looks for wearing masks and people think im crazy#for my life still being on hold and for my family still basically never going anywhere. ITS FUCKING WORSE that we are still very much in the#throes of all of it and we are in constant physical and quite frankly EXISTENTIAL danger not only of getting sick / becoming (more)#disabled / literally fucking dying but also returning to the absolute hell of lockdown which while important was psychologically damaging in#ways that are difficult to even articulate. like not only have we as a society decided to not give a shit about unpacking all of that and#healing from the trauma and assuming everyone went through the same thing when we very much did not and to just send everybody back to#school and work because 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑capitalism🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑 but we have ALSO decided to pretend like the freakish unceasing danger just doesn’t exist#anymore and to get rid of every tool we had available to keep us safe or at minimum make people have to pay exorbitant amounts of money to#access them because 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑capitalism🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑 !!!!!!! im TIRED. im so fucking tired of it. i am so fucking exhausted and angry and scared. and i#HAVE the luxury and privilege of being able to afford n95 masks and covid tests and to be able to work a job that i can do remotely if i#need to and to not be disabled or immunocompromised. what makes me fucking furious is we decided to throw all the people who don’t have#that access or privilege under the fucking bus and forget about them lol. but what do you expect from a country rotten to its core the way#it is lol. im fucking despondent. why are we living in an incinerator.#* the lockdown(s) werent just important they were necessary. and arguably we should have another one even though if we do i genuinely fear#for my mental health both during and afterwards and quite frankly before. im tired. i am grateful for the life i live which has resulted in#part from the different things that have happened because of the pandemic but i also so desperately wish this never happened and every day I#think about what life would be like if it hadn’t happened. the grief of it all is unspeakably big.

Always fantastic starting off the new Year with my insurance changing on me even though I was still supposed to be on my old one, not to mention this new insurance is for maternal care and I as a disabled Asexual person laughed so loud because wow that's gotta be some irony... And It doesn't cover any of my doctors or my medications most of which are hormone medications because I don't have a functioning pituitary or hypothalamus gland and I kinda need those meds to y'know live so... New year is going swell 🫠

Chapters: 2/? Fandom: Young Royals (TV 2021) Rating: Explicit Warnings: Underage Relationships: Simon Eriksson/Wilhelm, Simon Eriksson/Marcus Characters: Simon Eriksson, Wilhelm (Young Royals), Marcus (Young Royals), other characters make appearances but don't have super important roles that's why i don't tag them Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Post Season 1, Alpha/Beta/Omega Dynamics, Omega Simon Eriksson, Alpha Wilhelm, Simon-centric, an alternative season 2 take, Mating Cycles/In Heat, Power Dynamics, Power Imbalance, Angst, Plot With Porn, Size Difference, questionable sex, as in they both want it but the circumstances are questionable, Simon sure is making some decisions, if they are good ones is debatable, same goes for Wille, my first time writing omegaverse and i honestly never thought i would, it still is a mostly normal modern world, overuse of italics and brackets, how to be in a healthy equal relationship when your instincts are telling you the complete opposite, they're working on it, No mpreg Summary:
After christmas when school starts again, Simon has to face Wilhelm again but in that time something has changed: Wilhelm has presented as an alpha. For Simon, who is not a fan of being an omega and suppresses his biological instincts, it's just more reason to not get back together. But the two of them are drawn to each other and it's hard to keep ignoring what you want. Is it possible for them to find a way to be together without archaic rules and dynamics to get in between them?

jjk spoilers for manga leaks under the cut and in the tags .....
Tumblr media
ik its too soon to speak but... im excited to see a post gojo jjk world... i think its too early to call it good or bad writing but me personally? i think gojo dying makes for more interesting possibilities for the rest of that cast and their growth and development as characters
#jjk leaks#jjk spoilers#all of this depends on how the rest of the storie goes of course#we wont rlly know how everything will end up until jjk ends#but like. i WANTED gojo to die#something something gojo being born into the world made it unbalanced and only him dying will restore balance something something#which is funny bc him dying actually shakes things up so much#pre gojo sealing he was there sort of as a safety net as the strongest#even tho his title never meant anything bc he didnt really save anybody or anything#but then post gojo sealing the cast has one goal of freeing gojo#all of these expectations on one guy who they deem the strongest even tho the strength doesnt mean anything#which cant rlly sink in unless he. yknow. dies#OR loses his infinity or six eyes but too late he died#and now that their safety net/strongest sorcerer isnt there. what'll they do?#everybody needs to take a step back and reevaluate and realize they cant keep relying on him#hell even gojo wanted everyone to get to a point where they didnt need to rely on him#to not rely on one singular person for all their troubles and their fucked up system#a system that gojo WAS a part of and didnt dismantle himself because he got benefit from that system#he killed the higher ups and now hes dead too#or well. the jurys still out on who killed the higher ups. but theyre all dead and so is gojo#what now? u dont have ur strongest anymore! r u gonna cling on to the system that created this in the first place? or will u forge something#new. somwthing better. something that doesnt beget an endless cycle of destruction and death and loss of innocent lives#also. karma for gojo thinking the solution to their problems could be another fight#oh u think the solution to this cycle of violence is another big fight where all u need to do is win?#idiot. get cut in half.#u want to make jujutsu society better but given the choice of saving the new generation (megumi) or fighting the strongest sorcer of the#heian era. u choose fighting the strongest sorcerer#like u had a month surely u couldve come up w a plan that involved putting megumi first and finding a way to save him#and (as far as i can tell) everybody went with it!!! bc theyre all in the system and cant see past it to make alternatives!!!#well now gojo is DEAD! u better start finding some alternatives

Just my two cents as someone who is not American and doesn't usually talk about this kinda shit cause I've been thinking about it, the reaction to the Nashville shooting is one of the least self-aware things I've ever seen
Yes, the shooter did a horrible, inexcusable thing and got what was coming to him. But people don't just shoot up schools and kill children for the hell of it. And I don't wanna go and be all 'But how does this affect me?' about the deaths of children but like. I'm gonna hazard a guess and say the moral panic and disgusting responses about him being trans, as well as disingenuous media reporting him as an MTF instead /probably/ has something to do with why someome constantly being ostracised, villified and marginalised by society may eventually have serious mental problems that lead to them committing violent acts, and maybe if society was a lot kinder and understanding to people with underlying mental issues instead of acting like mental illness of any sort is inherently Bad and Shameful then we'd see a lot less shootings
