*slams hands down*

TELL ME ABOUT THE BACKROOMS AU

*Rapidly Vibrates*

OKAY!

So it's still in it's infancy right now, but the idea is that Bruce is a Backrooms entity who sometimes wanders the darker areas of other levels. It's the equivalent of him going on a walk whenever Alfred tells him to go outside.

The batkids are wanderers, specifically kids who have no-clipped into the backrooms and into various levels at various times. Actually have a lil blurb of Bruce's behavior according to other wanderers

  "While normally neutral towards any wanderers and a majority of other entities, it will become hostile the moment it is attacked. Batman will not become hostile immediately if aggression is shown, and may be made to retreat to darker areas if there are too many aggressors present."   "If you see it wandering it is best to stay out of its way. Only approach if you are in danger or another entity is pursuing you. Most entities will avoid entity (??) if they can and may stop pursuing you."    "A different behavior is noted towards those under the age of eighteen (though may be up to nineteen) who are not with a group. If it spots an unattended minor, it will purposely approach, even in an area with large amounts of light, and attempt to coax the child closer."    "It will then pick the child up, and retreat into the shadows, after which it may not be seen for months at a time. It is unknown what happens to the child."

Now what happens is Bruce sees a child, either actively in danger or all alone, and gently coaxes them over where he can make sure they're safe. And well, most levels are definitely not, so he'll pick them up and use the shadows to slip back to his home level. Which is pretty much Gotham, with two sublevels. One which is the manor, but very liminal and actively shifting around and is straight up controlled by Alfred, who is also an entity. Just one that looks completely human. But is immortal. The other sublevel is pretty much the Batcave systems and has so many exits to so many different levels.

But he'll bring them home to the manor. And well, it's the Backrooms, chances are they don't exactly have a caretaker. So he just kind of... takes them in.

But again, it's the Backrooms. People become entities. Hounds if they get bit, Wretches if they get too exhausted and starved and dehydrated. That's not exactly the case on Level G and it's sublevels.

Not that Alfred would ever let any of his wards be anything but well fed and rested.

So the children usually don't exactly stay human, just like how Bruce didn't stay human when he first fell down into the levels. It isn't exactly noticeable to them at first, but it happens.

And well, again, the backrooms aren't exactly safe, nor are there easy access to food or water, while with Bruce and Alfred there is. They get three meals a day, alongside snacks whenever, and their own rooms, and Bruce brings them knickknacks from other levels too! So why would they want to leave?

Though again everything is in the very early stages of figuring things out lol

y do ppl not get that when they put super long unnecessary captions on their liminal space pics it takes away the liminalness. just yap in the tags now ur whole post is ruined

[wienners]

one way i've been trying to convince my oomfs to get into EMH is by explaining that it is literally THE reason why everyone into online horror right now has a raging ongoing hard on for House of Leaves

[mewkwota]

are you called mewkwota because you have a mewing quota

It may come as a surprise but I have been in this world longer than The Mewing Phenomena (so that would be a no). ^^;

The funny thing is the username I have wasn't originally intended as "Mew", but I adjusted the capitalization because the big M and K made it look nicer.

[deadinsideart]

You ever just draw yourself in a liminal space? I hope to do a few of these as acnh has me in a chokehold and I haven't really DRAWN drawn in DAYS

And I got therapy again tomorrow and I should be sleeping but I don't feel tired enough to sleep

inspired by the lovely fic, “Sacrifice” by Bloopy42 on AO3:

“Having something to lose or having nothing to lose,” He mused, pretending to be distracted by his current, tedious endeavor. “I ask you, which is more tragic?”
