Prompt 217

Babies can die if they don’t have enough physical contact. This is something that is known, but Talia does not have time to spend with her twins, and it’s not like she carried them thanks to the false Lazarus womb, so she didn’t even have that excuse to use. 

What she did have, was a near braindead teen who could be taught things through muscle memory. 

Which is how Jason ended up caring for a pair of toddlers between any training, even after his dip in the Pit. Well, he cared for them until he left for Gotham, to enact his plans, even if he continued to call them every week. 

But that wasn’t enough for little Damian and Danyal.

Where had their caretaker gone? Away from them? Where is Baba? Across the sea? Unacceptable. They will not stand for this! 

Which in turn, is how Jason discovers his the twins outside his safehouse window, having somehow made it to Gotham on their own- what the fuck, kids!?

when my grandpa died this year, my mom went thru my grandmas endless stockpile of yarn from years of her and my mom doing craft shows and making endless things… my mom preferred crochet and I think my grandma preferred knitting, but by the end it was mostly just my mom making stuff. she didn’t have space for all of the yarn, since she has her own stockpile, so she gave me a bunch!

But then I got extremely overwhelmed by how much yarn I had lol, and I ended up donating most of it to a nearby center I found that I think teaches people knitting and crocheting, and maybe also they craft stuff for charity? Either way, I brought over two trash bags full of yarn that I didn’t have plans for.

And I still have so much left… it’s a mix of some yarn I kept from my grandma’s pile, yarn my mom has given me for various reasons (a few are for making beanies to replicate a red one she made me. I have made a blue! But there are 2 still waiting to be made), and then some I’ve just had in my own mini pile. I got a few from a junk shop I found I think earlier this year, and a couple I bought because I liked the colors (no and ace colors that I figured I could also make beanies from and still haven’t) and some are leftover from old projects! The biiiig teal and one of the off whites are from when I crocheted a Snorlax for my partner a few years ago. I think I was working on that the last day I ever saw my grandma before she died. And then most of the rest of the smaller balls of yarn are leftover from the Jamie harvest moon poncho that I started back in I think middle or high school, and only finished this year or last year because I always kept forgetting about it and would barely remember to touch it.

I’m in the process of winding up one of my messy white skeins, and 2 yarns (people from grandma stash and dark gray from junk shop) are in the middle of being used!!! I don’t know what I’ll do with most of the others. I think it would be cool to cosplay ren faire costume items (like I’m doing with the dark gray) or cosplay or something. Wearables in general would be cool but also sound scary.

Oh I also have a bag in my closet I forgot about- another bit from my mom’s stash she gave me for a purpose

She had an unfinished something in there but just told me to pull it out and use it. I was looking at a pattern for a wearable and she said this was a good yarn type for it, but I haven’t started it yet. It’s a granny stitch pattern so it shouldn’t be too bad, I’m just worried about figuring out sizing. It has a gauge thing for it but I’ve never had to do that before!!

Not exactly a dadstarion truther either (mostly bc it took me a while to actually warm up to the idea and also hes NEVER having kids with my durge, only my tav (can you imagine this man parenting a Bhaalspawn? A dhampir Bhaalspawn?? Nonono.)) But I do find something a little compelling about the thought of this man who a) has had absolutely nothing of his own for as long as he can remember and b) sees himself as worthless and irreparably fucked up creating this tiny new person? Like, they're part of him, he made this precious little creature (with the person he already loves most)? This soft and innocent thing? (Which he would waffle awfully between wanting to keep innocent for as long as possible but also making sure they know about life's horrors so they can avoid them) Like sure the baby version is annoyingly loud and can't do anything and also gross and smells but he can teach the toddler to bite people. He is the absolute worst enabler, spoils the kid rotten. Teaches them to steal and pick locks and just lets them get away with murder. Parent #2 has to do all the actual parenting part cuz damn he's not doing the discipline thing at all.

Also the vain part of him likes looking at his kid and sort of seeing some of his face in them, since he can't use an actual mirror.

Well he'd be cured by the time he has the kid or soon after in my canon, so that last part wouldn't apply for me.

And yeah, when I say that I'm not a dadstarion truther I don't mean that I don't see it happening ever, but more that to me, that first step in itself is the one that I see as least likely.

Because I can accept that he would learn to love the kid, that he would care about it and spoil it. I can also accept (and would gladly explore) him having a complicated relationship with the kid, either early on in a postpartum depression sort of way, or further down the line in a "I can't find common ground with my teen/young adult" sort of way (or both lbr).

The problem, to me, is that I don't see Astarion going "let's have a kid!" I don't see him genuinely wanting one, and I don't see him finding any reason to lie about wanting one, and I don't see Hira believing any of those lies even if he does try. It's really the initial hurdle. The rest I'm happy to make as dysfunctional and weird as it would realistically be when a guy who shouldn't be a dad becomes a dad. One of the reasons I came up with Critter is because I find it compelling how much Astarion is not a dad guy, and how that would fuck up a person like Critter. That's juicy stuff. And also a way for me to work out my own daddy issues I guess lmao.

But getting that started? Actually inventing a reason for how Astarion would even agree to it? That's where I struggle. And that's why I'm torn. Cuz I do want to stay true to my own interpretation of a character, while also wanting to create a new character and put them both (and also Hira) in situations.

Like I'm happy for all the dadstarion peeps who have cool dhampir girlies running around on adventures and I'd love to join them, but I also think that if I were true to Astarion's characterization, that kid would have issues. Like maybe a lot of them.

my new favorite Social Media™️ person is this guy on tiktok who owns or runs a bodega and some of the kids in the local community can get anything they'd like for free if they come in with their report card and show that they've either raised their grades or got on the honor roll for that semester

Caution: This Person May Randomly Break Into Song

This one is for anyone who knows that "slime tutorial" isn't always about messy desk toys.

For the theater nerds, the choir kids, the people who already know the soundtrack to that new animated film with the wide-eyed protagonist with curly hair and the animal companion. You know the one. Hell, you already know all the lyrics.

And your neighbors know exactly what time you shower, because hey, belting out show tunes is cheaper than therapy.

So is the T-shirt, by the way. And the pin!
