What happens if jason let's out a blood curdling scream out of absolutely nowhere? Not an au or anything I just want to know what you think the bat gang reactions would be

Depending on where they are/what they’re doing right now the reactions would vary slightly. But in general I don’t think any of them wouldn’t feel a stab of panic at that sound. Especially Bruce. (Maybe he‘s heard that scream before. Maybe there was footage to be recovered from the smashed domino in that warehouse all those years ago, maybe he still dreams of this exact sound over and over and over again)

Bruce would drop everything and run in Jason‘s general directions (trying and failing to fall into the clinical focus of Batman).

Dick wouldn’t be much better, though slightly more level headed about it and try to put his initial panic on the backburner. He knows Jason. Jason doesn’t scream even if he‘s being tortured these days. This could just be him being dramatic (please please please let this be him being dramatic)

Tim would assess the situation. Worried in his own way, but channeling that worry into securing the perimeter to give his comrades a clear shot at their target. Make sure there’s nothing in their way that could stop them.

Stephanie would jump straight into screaming back. She‘s not buying this bullshit. If Jason was in serious danger/hurt he would be making awful jokes and snippy comments about it. Or not make any sound at all. (She‘s not worried, she refuses to be worried. She‘s just gonna check up on him to give Jason a piece of her mind about interrupting patrol/a quiet night/a nice nap)

Cass would know straight away that nothing is actually happening and appear at Jason‘s side only so she can pat him on the shoulder. Maybe even get a hug.

Damian would loudly proclaim that Todd should learn how to suffer in silence, and that he‘s only going to check up on him because he cannot think with that awful sound he‘s making. (He‘s not worried, what are you talking about. He‘s not shaking. He‘s just a little cold. Get your facts straight. Jason screaming doesn’t rattle him in the slightest.)

Duke would one hundred percent believe someone‘s in the process of killing Jason and almost fall over himself trying to reach him. He‘s annoyed when it turns out to be nothing, but mostly he’s just relieved and demands Jason never does this again because he almost had a heart attack.

There's also the idea to make Janus the mad mage?? Or make the Dragon Witch the mad mage? Making creativitwins the descendants of the golden kindgom?? Possibilities are ENDLESS

general hurt/comfort. small self indulgent blurb for myself cause i need this rn :p

You sniffled, slowly calming down from your sobbing session. However, his arms remained around you, holding you securely against him. Your face was buried comfortably in his shoulder, as it usually does when things got like this. Sensing your decreasing cries, he moves one hand from your shoulder to your hair, stroking it with a tenderness that almost got you sobbing again. 

“Would you like to talk about it now, or do you just want me to keep holding you? Or we could do something else entirely, get out of the house, stay in, whatever you want, sweetheart” he said, pressing a soft kiss to your hair. 

“It’s stupid,” you mumbled against his shoulder.

You felt his body suddenly tense beneath yours. The hand on your hair moved to your chin, as he moved you so that he could look you in the eyes. “Nuh-uh. Nothing that bothers you is ‘stupid’. Even if an extreme tragedy didn’t happen, if it’s hurting or stressing you, its important. Now come on honey, wanna tell me what got you so worked up?”

“I just,” your voice broke and you lifted your hand to wipe the tears from your eye with the back of your hand. “I’m overwhelmed right now. Don’t get me wrong, I’m really excited about doing this class, and being able to start working, it’s just.. A lot. And it's so new. There’s so many things to do, so many things to consider. Things also aren’t going as smoothly as I expected them to do.”

“Aw, hun,” he brushed the hair away from your face. “I understand. Starting a new path in life is always going to be pretty scary. There’s so many unknowns, and it can just be a lot. But you have me to help you, to lean on. I’ll always support you in this. And you know what? I’m so proud of you, so fucking proud. You’re doing something outside of your comfort zone, and pursuing what you want despite all your worries. If I need to remind you every day, I will, but you’re doing so well. Things may not be going as smoothly as you expected, like you said, but you’re keeping with it regardless. I think that's something you should be proud of yourself for.”

His words made you tear up again. “Thank you, [__] that.. That means a lot coming from you.” 

“You know I'm not just saying this to say it, right? I mean it. You’re doing amazing, sweetie,” he said before kissing your forehead. The way he looked into your eyes, there was nothing put pure affection and admiration in his gaze. “You know what? This calls for a celebratory dinner. How about we get a nice dinner for you, and then afterwards maybe we can have some fun, catch my drift?” He said with a slight chuckle, raising his eyebrows. 

“Pervert!” You giggled, punching his shoulder lightly.

’Somewhere in the forest’ is a pretty damn big range. But Elias has time on his side, and a shovel he only uses for special occasions. Hasn’t broken it out since World War II, it’s pretty damn rusty. But it’ll work.

Elias pulls up near a random side of the woods he was directed to, gets the thing out of the back seat, and sets out in search of anything that might look like a grave.

@nobodys-soldier

By all means it would've been a longer search, if it weren't for the day old blood trail leading off into the forest.

The blood trail was about a 30 minute walk into the forest before it stopped, and just a few feet from where it ended, there was a patch of disturbed dirt amongst the grass.

Reading Gotham Academy and picking We Are Robin back up. (I got distracted by other fandoms for a bit.) I also recently finished Whistle.

Okay, DC Animation, I would kill for an anthology series à la Paranoia Agent focusing on Gotham's civilians. With the Bat family making cameos here and there.

It would be a great opportunity to adapt the extended family's origins (Duke, Stephanie, Cass), while also exploring the lives of those affected by the events in Gotham (Willow Zimmerman, Olive Silverlock).

Maybe an overarching plot is the Robin movement and ends with Duke becoming Signal?

A girl can dream, can't she?

Imagining regular people’s response to the dead prince returning on the monster dragon Red Hood…

Imagine, even before his death, Jason has issues gaining public support or following the way Bruce and Dick has.

Of course, the commoners who actually know him, like the servants at the palace, love him.

But he has no idea how to play to the crowd the way Born Performer/Charmer Dick Grayson or noble-born Tim who was trained for it all his life can.

 Unfortunately, ‘shy, tongue-tied’ can too easily come across as ‘sullen, arrogant’ from the distance a crowd will watch a prince. Especially if you are standing next to your Prince Charming brother.

And Jason was only in the public eye for about two or three years – long enough for the leeway afforded by novelty to wear off, not long enough to learn the complexities of maintaining a public persona.

So… As far as the man in the street is concerned, the former sullen prince is now somehow back, riding the monster dragon they may or may not remember having destroyed thousands.

 He is hunting their little prince in a horribly mismatched scenario of the monster dragon against a two-year-old robin, he hurt their charming crown prince who was just trying to defend his little brother…

Jason, expecting the people to be glad of his return – they were, at the beginning – reacting to being seen as a second Mad Rider like Red’s former rider…

Some suicidally brave commoner kid – I’m picturing Duke – throwing rocks at Red and Jason to try and distract them from a wounded Tim-Red Robin or Dick-Nightwing…

Oh that’s a heartbreaking scenario. Especially if Jason cares about what the common folk think of him 🥲

And stupidly brave Duke would definitely get at least lightly singed by Red for the audacity. Which, unfortunately, just drives home the point of Jason being just as bad as his predecessor… 😔

@ofescapisms / closed starter / victoire dubois setting: their apartment

Tommy was trying to pretend that everything had been normal since the lake incident, not just with the town but also with Vic and their friendship. He was trying not to overthink it—he wouldn’t go through that all over again—but her hands, that sigh, saving him from drowning and then staying with him all night, it all would've sent him into a tizzy. It was still possible that it would now, too. He couldn't. He wouldn't. From his work bag, he was writing notes in a script from home in some attempt to find anything new for the high school students to try. Something at least a bit more modern.

As Vic entered the living room, an idea came to mind. Normally, he wouldn’t need to rehearse it, but maybe that would help the two of them go back to some form of normalcy. “Hey Vic, are you busy?” He asked, keeping his eyes on the papers he had been working with. “I need someone to help me work through this script for class. I'm an absolute mess.”

Sketches from the President/Vice President Jefferson era of my modern Jamilton AU, featuring John Adams and my attempts to give Alexander a modern hairstyle without just copying LMM.

I spent some time thinking about Jamilton and Adams while sketching, which I put under the cut because I tend to be very long-winded and my mind went to some odd places.

I find Hamilton's portrayal of Thomas Jefferson's friendship with John Adams interesting when it is examined purely in the confines of the musical and outside any historical context.

I think there are only two references to Thomas Jefferson and John Adams' personal relationship in the entirety of Hamilton:

In the cut version of the The Adams Administration, Hamilton tells Adams to "Say, 'Hi', to the Jeffersons!"

In the Election of 1800, which was historically near the height of the Jefferson-Adams feud, Jefferson says that, "John Adams shat the bed. I love the guy, but he's in traction."

Both lines imply a close, positive relationship between the two characters (and the latter line also informs the audience that Adam's will not be running for re-election because his political career crashed and burned). That's it. There is no clear evidence of the historic Jefferson-Adams feud and broken friendship within the musical, which makes sense since Hamilton is telling the story of Alexander Hamilton but has an interesting consequence: in Hamilton cannon, given the positive statements in the two songs, one can argue that Thomas and John's friendship survives the Washington and Adams administrations.

I mean this was clearly not intended, and I am definitely reading too much into things, but I find the idea really interesting--especially how it impacts any romantic relationship between Alexander and Thomas.

Alexander and John are the two leaders of the Federalist Party; yet, Thomas likes John in spite of their differences while initially being antagonistic towards Alexander. I absolutely believe that Alexander would be jealous of John and his friendship with Thomas. Especially during the early stages of his and Thomas' romantic relationship, Alexander's inferiority complex would arguably give him yet another reason to hate John Adams and cause some unnecessary relationship drama. Meanwhile, Thomas' friendship with John would help Thomas move past his political differences with Alexander in order to pursue a relationship and cause some tension given the John-Alexander feud.

The possibilities for conflict are further fed in a modern political Jamilton AU. It's been a long time since I studied the era, but I remember that one reason why Adams' vice presidency went so poorly is that Adams was not part of Washington's inner circle and the Vice President's authority was pretty limited at the time, so it certainly seemed like Adams didn't "have a real job anyway."

In a modern AU, however, that is not the case. George would have chosen John as his running mate. The Vice President is a vital part of the Presidential administration and has far more authority than in the late 1700s. The Vice President is now constitutionally part of the Cabinet and, in fact, presides over the Cabinet in the President's absence. George couldn't sideline John as much as he historically did, even if he (or Alexander) tried. Given the Thomas-John friendship and John-Alexander enmity, I think John's increased authority and participation in the Washington Administration would have very interesting consequences on the Jamilton rivalry/relationship.
