#idk please don't believe everything that's given to you on social media

[hideandseaking]

It really needs to be hammered into people that when you see a headline that makes you enraged and horrified over something that you have to fact check the credibility of the news source. Most of the time they're heavily biased towards something and have mixed factual reporting

[secretsandwriting]

This is what won as well as responses to almost if not all the comments left.

After this I'll make the new one to go over some of the options you guys brought up to refine it.

Ok, so first here are the things that are done and will be in the next one.

Y/n will be a vigilante. (83.3% voted yes)

Enemies forced to work together (76.7% voted yes)

Enemies to lovers (76.7% voted yes)

Dating to stay undercover (53.3% voted yes, 23.3% voted its fake dating, thats always an option)

Fashion (76.7% voted Fashion)

People might die. (36.7% voted just not the batfam and co, 26.7% voted no please let everyone live, and 26.7% voted maybe as long as I don't like them)

Angst response is easier to show then to type out.

So now were on to the three questions where you could type your answers.

Things you don't want.

+ means there different requests I put together

Stalker ex boyfriends + SA and yanderes + Crazy ex + Allusion to s*xual *ssault + dark themes, r@pe, abuse, cheating + S**ic*de. It's a really bad trigger for me. If it ends up in play, trigger warning in advance.

First off, I don't really want to do any of these and I know I've done some of them before so I get why you're bringing it up. I'm actually trying to avoid them more now because its not the best for me to be writing them and all that.

As for the dark themes, its based off DC so I can't promise that not coming up as for trigger warnings, I'm not the best at them but I do try to put them before any part that has things in them so that's a given. But for the most part the only ones of these I see happening is the dark themes and those would mostly be the normal Gotham things.

Pet’s Dying, My pets dying lol

I mean, I figured out a way to help stop that so you don't have to worry about it.

Really gritty violence?

The nice thing about smau is that people don't normally post that type of thing on social media, escpecially if your trying to keep your identity secret. Also I don't like how I write things like that so I try to avoid it. There might be mentions of it happening but I doubt I'll ever go into too much detail on it.

SLOW BURN LIKE NO SIS I CAN'T HANDLE THAT

Well, since undercover dating won there won't be too much to slowburn.

If it is enemies to lovers, please don't make them too antagonistic

No this would be my favorite version of enemies to lovers. They may be enemies but they know that the other isn't actually that bad but they have pride so its really just petty in general.

IF YOU KILL THE MAIN CHARACTER AGAIN IM COMING FOR YOUR KNEECAPS

Jokes on you I took my own knee caps

jason being a whore

I love this but you don't want it which almost makes me sad but ok anon. I'll try not to make Jason a whore.

No kids: just everyone being young and living it up without being too idk domestic?

Ok, idk how to avoid making it too domestic but I'll try.

Anything you do want?

Having to live together. Cohabitation

Easy. I got you anon.

Titus and co as well as Jason bestie + bat cow 💕 + reader may be enemies with dick but reader and damien have a brother-sister bond

These three kinda go hand in hand and I like all of them.

Soulmate au? Secret dating?

Probably not soulmate au and secret dating would have to be a side relationship because Dick and Y/n would be fake dating. So I could do it, but I need another couple to do it with.

Stupidly cute fluff + happiness maybe + Some sweet domestic fluff is always nice :)

Already wanted all of these in it, so you three are thinking on the same wavelength as i am.

SASSY PET RACCOON LIVING HIS BEST LIFE , FAKE DATING where maybe ONE of the batfam still don't believe that they are dating and try everything to prove that they aren't which leads to Dick and reader to try absolutely anything to convince everyone

I love it. Thank you. However the pet raccoon isn't confirmed yet as there were a bunch of other options people put in so I'm going to have that one run again.

john mulaney quotes

THE FACT I NEVER THOUGHT OF THIS I TRULY SAD. THANK YOU FOR TELLING ME!! THIS WILL DEFINITELY HAPPEN

Flustered Dick, even if lowkey + Dick's ass

I'm combining these simply because together, they give me some great ideas.

y/n having literally EVERYONE wrapped around her finger (maybe one exception idk)

Ok, but really. This is a great idea. Everyone just loving her but one of them sitting in the corner like. "Idk man, something about her isn't right..." Proceeds to sip drink.

CAR CHASE CAR CHASE And maybe slowdancing in the rain

So these were sent in by the same person. I like both! I like both a lot. I just figured out how to do a car chase in smau so its all good!!!!

Soft, moonlit whispers as one of them bleeds deeply + Dicks reaction to love interest being hurt, badly. I always love that. + fluff, and angst (maybe reader getting injured really badly)

I might get in trouble for this, but I do like the ideas... A lot...

More action

I'll try! I've found it a little hard with smau and I'm not the best action writer but I do want to add more action so I'll try to figure out how to do more.

Anything else or is it all covered?

pls for gods sake, for my sake, for your sake, don't kill the pets

Ever since I got this, it was one of the first so its been a little while. I keep wondering if its a threat? But again, pets dying isn't planned. I should have enough to go for plot so that there is no need to kill pets.

A lil bit of CRACK just batfam crack in general oh and maybe BATCOW making an appearance

The only problem with batcow, is pinterest doesn't have many pictures of cows that look like they could be pets because there are rarely people with them so thats why batcow hasn't shown up. Since I have more time to plan this one, I'll look for more options and see if I can find any.

what if, and hear me out, we made it gay🌈? or, at least, masc fem reader?

No, simply because I'm not comfortable writing it as the main relationship/character. I've tried before and I didn't like it in the least and scrapped a week work. So If I tried I doubt I would finish it, if I did, it wouldn't be good because I would probably just give up part way through. So I can definitely do ships and all that that aren't the main but for some reason every time I've tried to do it as a main relationship, I hate it. Sorry!

it would be cool to have more poc or lgbtq rep

I'm actually planning for more poc to happen in the current one. I noticed lack of poc not long ago and confused myself as to why so there will definitely be more representation.

As for lgbtq, I'll try. I was planning on trying to have at least one ship or something because I haven't. But as long as its not the main relationship I can do it so that I'll at least post it.

kiss ily muah

I love you too! muah! I really needed this, thank you!

NO KIDS PLEASE AND THANK U

Ok, No kids and you're welcome.

If there is an instance of fashion, could they help each other get ready, and laugh and joke a lot?

You genius you! Of course I love it!

Nope everything’s perfect! love from yours truly fuzzycloudsz <33 + All covered + All good! + We good + That's all. I love your stuff. + its covered !!!@ cant wait!!! + All good

I'm glad I got everything then! Thank you guys! I'm glad you like my stuff and that your excited for the new one!

[fluffyrainbowbutterfly]

Not many people will read this but

*hand on shoulder, deep alluring voice* Hey *Sunflower by Post Malone plays in background*

In all seriousness I really have a lot of hard things going on in my personal, family, and career life that all hit their hardest this week and especially this afternoon. I have some big life decisions to face and the problem is other people are making those choices for me and I don't have a say (especially in my career) even though I was supposed to. I generally avoid making prayer requests on social media because I don't like drawing attention to myself or my problems or have people asking about them. Plus, I know a lot of people have it worse than me. I ask that if you are reading this, you pray for me. Also read the Book of Romans and John and 1 John. No reason, just for your own benefit as a fellow human. Psalms is good too. Ask questions. Find a good person to talk to. Idk who's reading this but know that you are passionately and fatally Loved and not in some rinky dinky aesthetic American Christian blog way and I wish I could express that better.

I am still immensely thankful for what I have left--the Gospel. And I pray I will be thankful for the other things I have here too for now, a place to sleep, access to food and water, and friends like @please-dont-pet-the-okapi who love me even when I'm far away and absent.

But I need to be at peace with whatever happens to me and I need to be strong and responsibile for what I need to be strong and responsible for. And so I pray for peace, discipline, strength, and a deepening trust and faith in Christ because I know I truly have nothing else and no one else. I pray that I can meet the demands in order to get through the upcoming months without hurting myself.

Yes I kept it vague for my privacy. Sorry. Idk. Just thought this might be better than flat up disappearing or deleting my account out of temporary frustration (which I've contemplated)

One last rant

The Lord's Prayer is the final say on how we communicate with God. It is on His terms for our benefit. There are no magic words in prayer and no special actions. I've been guilty of thinking "if I pray hard enough..." Yes, God wants us to keep asking and searching and knocking. But He wants us to find peace in Him when nothing is going right. You are not guaranteed prosperity or happiness or even your life. Your gift from God is salvation through Christ and the promise and sanctification of the Holy Spirit as observed in Scripture, Baptism, and Communion. In the Lord's Prayer we ask that His will, that is, not only His will for our life but His will in everything (His purpose to restore Humanity and all creation) be done and be made known to us each and every waking moment.

I urge all Christians, regardless of denomination, to read and study Luther's Small Catechism and the Explanation of the Small Catechism. It answers some of the hardest, deepest questions of faith and answers them with Scripture Alone. It's actually a peaceful read because it is like a conversation with a friend. I'm not forcing you to believe it or anything. I understand that there's what a lot of theologians would call a "gray area" when it comes to the Sacraments. I only hope Luther's Small Catechism will help you understand God better and bring you closer to Him and to His Word and farther away from yourself and your expectations. And I'm saying this as a reminder to myself.

Be strong and courageous, and don't reject the faith that the Lord has given you.

The Peace of the Lord be with you always.

Amen
