Lantern AU part 2

(This is part of an AU in which some of the lantern corps work differently for a bunch of reasons, here's a post explaining it:

Kon: Holy shit, Rob, what's with the makeover?

Tim: Um yeah, so I guess I'm a Green Lantern now.

Kon: Well damn, I die and you become a whole new superhero? When did that happen?

Tim: Uh, somewhere between attempts 76 and 88 I think...

Kon: What?

Tim: What?

****

Cass: ...

Floating indigo ring:...

Cass: *squints*

Floating indigo ring: *flickers*

Cass: *tilts her head*

Floating indigo ring: *flips around itself*

Cass: *blinks*

The double dozen of goons she was busting: ...we could... Leave you guys to it?

Cass and the floating indigo ring: Shhh.

*****

Steph: Hey dad, it's visiting hour.

Arthur Brown: Stephanie? What are you doing in jai-

Steph: *punches him in the throat*

Steph: *kicks him in the shin*

Steph: *punches him in the face with a bright green giant fist construct*

Steph, looking down at the green power ring on her finger: Now where did that come from

****

Bonus:

Hal, coming back to earth after hearing there's a bunch of new lanterns in the rough that spawned around the same time: So what's been up with Gotham?

Bruce: My blood pressure

Pain

That's what Tim feels when he comes to. All consuming pain.

His abdomen feels like it's on fire. His head feels like someone is taking an ice pick to it. He can feel his heartbeat in his eyes.

—Summary of Green rings and red things (part 36 of Tim Drake AU’s) by siren_of_the_ocean on ao3

In which Tim Drake gets a green lantern ring instead of a splenectomy and the universe is better for it.

(review+rambling below the line)

This fic is 40k words long and i genuinely forget that every time because all I can think is “it’s too short and I want more.” The concept is fantastic, to my layman eyes and a few google searches it seems like the author actually knows their canon shit (well, that and the fact that they have a reacting to cannon series that has continued to be updated for actual years at this point) and have a fixation on tim drake, which is fantastic because so do i. The ending is a bit…abrupt? It’s not bad, it just hits you out of nowhere and leave you wanting more.

Things I Love About This Fic:

Tim “i will do what i want to do or die trying” drake

Tim vs the JL: The Emotional Beat-Down

Tim: *takes one look at the guardians* there’s somethin’ fishy going on around here

Tim: since i had some downtime, i told the ring to tell me everything. /The other earth lanterns: 👀 / Tim: aaand i’m getting the feeling that’s never occurred to you before

Kyle: He’s the enemy! Run!/ Tim: how about instead i stay and politely ask some questions / Kyle: that is literally the opposite of what i told you to do

Kon: *is alive* /Tim: *is having a mental breakdown* / Kon: is this a good time to mention Bart’s here too? / Bart: got something you want to share with the class, timmy?

Stopping here so I don’t seriously spoil anything too badly. Go read it! Or if Green Lanterns aren’t your thing, this author had literally over a hundred other fics you might enjoy! Other favorites include Into the Deep Dark Night (part 75 of Tim Drake AU’s) in which Tim becomes a Russian water spirit(??) undead entity type deal and lives in the sewers, Bat in a Flash (part 17), where Tim becomes a Flash during an accident with lightning, and The worst year of his life (part 40) in which the justice league, the bats, and a few others react to the red robin (2012) run (also good if, like me, you can’t afford the comics and want to get the gist. They’re currently on issue 29 of 90s yj later on, if you’re interested).

(No this is not an add, i just Love this series

Reasons why the rest of the JL believes Batman and all of his children are metas/cryptids

-Weirdly good instincts

-They only see the bat and kids at night

-Hasn’t died

-If they have died, they came back within the year

-The JL has seen all of them at one point or another stay up for 96 hours straight and act semi-normally

-One time Batman was stabbed and started bleeding green(it was slime Bruce packed for kids to play with if they were at a crime scene)

-Red Robin didn’t cry while watching A Dogs Purpose for Young Justice’s movie night(he did, the mask hid his tears)

-They all know an absurd amount of Golf facts

-Somehow none of them age

-All of them are friends with a super

Wonder Women has the list and they update it after every mission.

Hal Jordan finding out about Nightwing: YOU. You have a *kid*?

Batman: well... Technically he's my oldest and age of majority... But he's still my kid.

Hal Jordan: OLDEST? YOU HAVE MORE? 2? 3?

Batman visibly annoyed:... 6... Legally.

Hal Jordan: I'm going home. This has single handedly killed my willpower for a week, I need to process this.

Later....

Superman: Ah so you finally found out. I'm proud of him honestly, good to see he's willing to bond with others again.

Hal Jordan: You knew?

Superman: ...His kids basically call me Uncle Supes. I've babysat. I was around when he still just had Nightwing

WW: They're so cute! Children of such strength and bravery. Not to mention his dog, his cat, his cow... His son has animals even I've never seen before!

Hal Jordan: I've had enough.

And Hal hasn't even learned about his crime fighting cousin, batwing, Oracle, bluebird, Spoiler, and of course Jarro.

Note: everyone knows Supes is a father, he's the dad to talk your ear off about it but he's too nice with too much country charm for anyone to say anything about it. WW and Martian Manhunter are the only ones who listen absolutely intently.

Bernard: i lied. i don’t like sex. put your clothes back on babe and watch my power point presentation about What The Fuck Is Going On Between Batman And Twoface

Tim: …

[morganbritton132]

Hal, interrupting Barry mid-sentence: Hold up. You were in Gotham? Batman’s Gotham? ‘No-Meta-in-Gotham’ Gotham?

Barry: Yeah? Bats needed my forensic expertise. It was so cool. We traced-

Hal: Not fair. I want to go to Gotham

Barry: Ask Batman

—

Green Lantern, thinking about how he’s going to kill The Flash: You want me to go in there *gestures to open manhole* In the sewer. To fight an alligator.

Batman: Killer Croc is a man

Green Lantern: That looks like a crocodile and eats people.

Batman: Yes.

Green Lantern: What about him? Make him do it *gestures to Red Robin*

Red Robin: Can’t

Batman: He can’t.

Green Lantern: Why not?

Red Robin: Don’t have a spleen

Batman: He doesn’t have a spleen.

Green Lantern:

Red Robin, over coms: Did you guys hear that? Green Lantern just told me he wants me to fucking die

Coms: *explodes as everybody speaks at once*

"My favourite superhero is Green Lantern!"

"My favourite is the Flash!"

"Mine is Robin!"

[file808]

I have a head cannon that non of the batboys favorite superhero is batman, but they don't know that he isn't Tim and Damians favorite.

---‐----------------------------------------------------

Jason or the most loyal Wonder Woman fan: Dick I can't believe that you're a Superman fan

Dick an superman fan: Hey at least I'm better than him. *Points to Damian*

Damian: Tt I'll have you know that I'm an avid fan of Black Canary. Father is not my favorite hero unlike somebody. *Glares at Tim*

Tim: You know that Batman's not my favorite hero right?

Dick genuinely shocked: WAIT WHAT!?!?

Jason: Yah Tim, Damian makes sense but you??? You have been such a Batman fan sense the beginning.

Tim: Like a year after becoming Robin Batman stopped being my favorite. Why is this such a surprise?

Damian: So Drake who's your favorite now?

Tim: Green Lantern!

Dick: Which one? There's a whole Corp of them.

Tim: ...

Jason: Tim...which one??

Tim:*Sigh* Hal Jordan.

Bruce in the distance: REALLY HAL JORDAN?!!!?!!

I never really wanted the heroes to be in this but I thought this time it would be funny. You may or may not see them again idk yet

Part 6 master-post

[scarareg]

Spin the wheel and get a DC character

[confused-wanderer]

Okay but Bruce has to grow out a beard for a mission and after he shaves it all his kids are screaming bloody murder, the justice league lose it and the public is heartbroken.

The league still maintains some decorum in front of him, though they pout whenever they see him without it the first time. The public has been crying in outrage demanding he grow it back because the man looked like a fucking Greek god.

His kids? Oh, they don’t acknowledge him as the same person.

There’s Beard Wayne, and Bruce Wayne.

And nope. To them, they’re not the same. No matter how much Bruce tries. And to his chagrin, Alfred agrees with them.

dc characters as tumblr/twitter posts

I like to think whenever someone tweets at captain marvel anything extreme or inappropriate, it's quickly dealt with before cap can see it, and billy is just left wondering what happened (just rambling a bit cause i like to see marvel/billy as well as his family/team being protected by others, even if they may/may not know marvel/billy is a kid)

(Please ignore that I got the dates kinda wonky this time. whoops!)

I think this is the end of the Pig Migration storyline! Mostly cuz I’m forcing myself to stop unless people are still interested in it lol.

Teen Lantern sharing her culture for @/dcforgaza on Twitter. You can still donate there until August 18th -- you don't even need a Twitter account -- and receive some art or a fic in exchange.

[artistzjay]

I WANT HAL JORDAN TO BABYSIT THE BATKIDS AND TO BE GOOD AT BONDING WITH THEM EVEN WITH THEIR CRAZY DAILY ANTICS AND THEIR ANGST!

I WANT THE BATKIDS TO SEE THAT HAL HAS AN ACTUAL INTEREST IN LEARNING ABOUT THEM AND NOT JUST FOR THEIR FATHER AND HAVE FUN AND GET HUGS FROM HIM!

THEN I WANT BRUCE WAYNE TO SEE HOW WELL HE GETS ALONG WITH HIS CHILDREN AND FALL FOR HIM BECAUSE WHO DOESN’T LIKE GOOD PARENTING?

NO, I WILL NOT ELABORATE ANYMORE OF THIS PLOT FOR ANYONE.

MAKE UP THE REST ON YOUR OWN!
