#still no title

That random one shot? That’s at about 13k words currently? Here’s the context of *someone* reading Garrick and Imogen like a book …

“Hey there gorgeous." I hear a voice off my side and turn. It's coming from a mountain of a man; tall, pale, with broad shoulders and dark hair. At the same time he speaks, I also notice a woman with the most awesome pink hair turn and look at us, eyes narrowing. "Hi," I respond tentatively. "I appreciate the compliment, but I don't want to get between you and whatever fight you might be having with your" - I take a wild stab - "girlfriend?" "Girlfriend?" he sputters. "Pink hair, killer arms, staring at us like she wants us both dead? Those eyes were not that murderous before you started talking to me and since I don't know her ..." His face goes red and his jaw drops. He abruptly turns and walks off. I hear laughter in his wake behind me, so I rotate again.

if you're wondering how the totk fic is going, Link has reclaimed the Master Sword...but with some extra witnesses (Sidon, and Zelda through the eyes of the Light Dragon)

"crack treated seriously" may end up being a tag on this fic 😅

I hope my heart heals with this tattoo

I hope that you too can see the beauty in my scars

That my pain wasn't for nothing

That it at the very least taught me to be patient

And to appreciate the waves of goosebumps that life washes over our flesh from time to time

As we do all we've done our entire lives:

Heal

Dc x Dp Prompt #6

“I’m a twin”, Damian said one night. He could feel the narrowed eyes of his family drilling holes on his back in disbelief. Not that he could blame them. Damian had never so much as implied being raised with a companion, much less a sibling.

“I had a brother”. Damian paused to recollect himself. He had not said his brother’s name out loud in over 8 years.

“His name was… Danyal”. Damian hated the way his voice wavered, but he could not help it. Danyal was everything to him, his other half. Their heart beat as one and when one heart stopped beating, the other one died with it. At least until his family put his heart on metaphorical life support without ever realizing.

“Where is he now?” His father asked, voice filled with knowing grief and a hint of betrayal. It had in fact been 6 years since Damian first showed up on his doorstep.

“Up there”. All eyes shifted towards the specific star he was pointing to. “Right before he died, he promised me he’d guide me from the stars. Unfortunately, the stars are not visible in Gotham, so my brother is unable to be of much help unless I leave the city.”

“Your brother is Polaris, the North Star?” Tim questioned warily, most likely in attempts to not offend him. Damian was aware of how stupid it sounded, but Danyal had promised, and his brother never broke his promises.

“Yes. Danyal is with the stars now, just as he always wanted”

If these two ever met they’d probably annoy the shit out of each other in a sorta older “responsible” sibling vs. younger “wild card” sibling way.

"I need to find my darling husband!" Said Danny, dressed to the nines in a very elaborate royal dress with a lot of jewelry running through the ballroom after having been on the opposite end of a very worrying phone call.

"Seriously, what do you even see in that mortal!?" Screamed an observant and Danny stopped and leveled them with a glare cold enough to freeze over an active volcano and sharp enough to cut through obsidian.

"He makes me laugh."

Unlike those dead suitors went unsaid, but everyone at the ball (read: search for a bride/groom for the royal ghostling) practically heard it anyways.

Meanwhile over in the land of the living

Okay so Jason may have messed up. Now you see, he hasn't seen his platonic husband for tax benefits in a while, and he's been very careful to not let his identity as the Red Hood slip up before . Not even once in their relationship.

(He's not counting the time his in-laws sniffed him out as a Crime Lord, because Danny never believed them.)

Now, it wasn't exactly his fault he slipped up. You try to fight off an entire group after being pulled up on out of nowhere on the phone while trying to hide said noises of fighting.

Who was he calling? Danny of course since he said he was away for business. What business? Never specified and Jason wasn't going to pry.

So now here he was, bound 'helplessly' as Jason Todd along with a few other random civilians. Which, like, rude.

Wasn't he already good enough for this ancient ritual or whatever?

You know, he really should have walked with that "Anti-kidnapping device" he got that one time. Which honestly he feels like he should be surprised that such a thing exists but considering it was from Bruce. Well.

He's not surprised.

Oh, there's the Justice League now. Shame, he wanted to knock out a few guys himself- Oh, now he's being used to summon a ghost from the Infinite Realms of Royal Lineage.

Yea he probably should have walked with that "Anti-kidnapping device."

Wait a goddamn-

Is that-

"My darling husband!" Danny shouted, scooping him off the circle and away from the head cultist and swinging him around. "You had me worried sick!"

Now, he should ask the question anyone would in this situation when finding out your best friend and platonic husband for tax benefits was apparently a ghost of royal lineage.

"Why're you in a dress?"

"Okay, first of all I rock this thing." Danny huffed.

"That you do." Jason agreed rather easily.

"Second of all, blame those guys over there." He jerked his head in the direction of two very green floating eyeball people.

Not the weirdest he's seen, honestly.

The Observants were whispering to each other and leveling them-Jason in particular-a look.

"Now as you can see, I already have a spouse and I don't need another!" Danny hugged Jason closer for emphasis and he took the time to whisper in Danny's ear. "Did you really marry me to play the husband card?"

"Well, yes." Danny agreed. "But also because of taxes, because I love you and you're my best friend."

"So, we're still done for watching that movie right."

"Obviously."

A pained grunt came from below them and they both looked down to see Batman standing over a very unconscious cultist and looking up at them.

Hm.

He forgot they were there.

"So," Jason began, staring Bruce straight in the eyes. Batman's eyes narrowed. "Don't suppose we can push that forward to right now?"

"Yea, sure why not I'm not doing anything important." Danny leveled the Observants a look, and before either they, Batman, or the Justice League could do anything they both disappeared.

… am I at over 5k words of this idea? Because maybe …

… did I maybe think of some relatively unhinged AU while cooking dinner tonight? Because … possibly.

The loose summary of which I sketched out in the notes app:

Xaden engaged - about to be engaged - to cat at some party; vi invited because big political something or other; with Dain but Dain only has eyes for Halden; Xaden has two hours to find someone else

I've seen homo/transphobes and alike calling the lgbtq+ community "alphabet mafia" and lowkey stealing that. Like, you think you can insult me with a dope ass title? Nah i'm so stealing that. Why did they think alphabet mafia was an insult in the first place? I absolutely adore that term like yes i am part of the gay mafia tf you wanna do about it homophobe?

So anyway, since Bruce abandoned his family, are they gonna let Damian go live with Dick in the Tower orrr is DC going to keep being dumb and not take advantage of such a golden opportunity...

I was inspired by @temporaltemporary's Bdubs chart and decided to add data of Joel as well

Interesting things to note:

Because the length of episodes were so different not only between Joel and Bdubs but also between their own episodes, I decided to use percentages

Joel does not (afaik) mention Etho in his episode 2 and 5, so I put those percentages at 100%

Both Bdubs and Joel mention Etho within the first minute in both their episode 7

I know Joel is up to episode 11 now, but this is about the difference between the two, so I'm currently only going to use the episodes both of them have released
