Hot Potato, Hot Potato

No. 30 NOTE TO SELF: DON'T GET KIDNAPPED

Manhandled | Hair Grabbing | "Please don’t touch me.”

Have you ever wanted to play hot potato with your littlest brother who has been magically turned into an iguana? The Batkids did.

Magic, why does it have to be magic?

“Damian, watch out!” Dick yelled as he ducked out of the way of a bolt of purple magic barrelled past him.

Unfortunately, Damian had been preoccupied with one of the magic user’s weird glass goons and had not ducked in time. The bolt of magic hit him square in the back.

The fourth Robin crumpled to the roof covered in a purple aura-like haze. In his place was a teenaged iguana.

“Nightwing to Batman,” The comm. line connected. “We have a BunnyWing situation here,” Dick told him.

“Acknowledged.” Bruce responded crisply. Everyone connected into the line could hear the tired sigh in his voice.

One of the children turned into an animal by a magic user could only go one way when it came to this family and it started with an ‘n’ (don’t be a nincompoop, it wasn’t nice).

XXX

That had happened last night. It had been twelve hours since Damian had been turned into an iguana by a magic user while out on patrol.

When Bruce left his room that morning he had found it to be suspiciously quiet. That was never a good omen in this household. Ever. He needed to find his phone to call Zatanna. When he walked into the living room not even an hour later still in search of his phone, he found his children (well, most of them) standing in the centre of the room in a loose circle. Most interestingly, there is a baby iguana flying through the air between them.

“What is going on here?” he asked. All of his children turned to face him with matching guilty expressions. Iguana!Damian lands on Jason’s head with a hiss, he had come close to almost sliding right off.

“Reaction practice?” Tim tried. Bruce levelled them all with another one of his Tired Dad Looks™

“It is eight in the morning, on a Sunday, and you lot are playing hot potato with your youngest brother who is currently an iguana?” It wasn’t a question but it could have been.

“Yep,” Jason answered. It’s echoed by a choir of more yeps, yes’s, and a yeah.

It was at that moment that Bruce decided that it was too early in the morning and and he didn’t have enough coffee to be dealing with this. 

“I don’t have enough coffee to evaluate this situation right now nor stop it; Just please make sure that Damian — or anyone else for that matter — isn’t hurt,” he announced before turning, grabbing his phone from the side table, and heading to the door. “And make sure that Alfred doesn’t find out; I’m not protecting anyone from his wrath,” Bruce added before he left the room.

Behind him, he could hear the shouts and hissing start up again. They had resumed their game.

The heavenly scent of freshly brewed coffee drew him in the direction of the kitchen. Coffee first then he would call Zatanna to see if she was free to come over to sort out their lizard problem.

XXX

Damian had been asleep in his bed when his brothers broke into his room and snatched him from the heavenly confides of the blanket.

In their present state they weighed less than an average table lamp, so there was little that they could do to stop the thievery.

Damian felt his brothers carry him down the hallway, downstairs and saw the couches and extra large-sized television that told him that they were now in the living room.

Suddenly he was flying through the air. For a brief moment, they were worried that they were not going to be caught and would land painfully. But then he landed in someone’s — Timothy’s, based on how pale the skin was — hands.

Before he could even get his bearings, Timothy (the traitor) had launched him up in the air again. Once more they were caught and again chucked into the air.

The next time he is flying through the air, Damian voices his annoyance in the only way he can do so in this form: hissing.

Their brothers ignore their protests in favour of treating them like some kind of plaything. Tossing him around like someone would do with a ball.

No, not a ball; worse than that: a hot potato.

Useless

Warnings: blood, stabbing, injury, wounds, mcd, sadistic whumper, restraints

No. No. Please, no. This can’t be happening. Caretaker strained against the rope keeping them in their chair. They had to get to Whumpee. They had to see. 

Whumpee was slumped forward in the chair, blood dripping from their lips and from the stab wound in their chest.  Caretaker couldn’t see Whumpee’s face. Couldn’t see if they were still breathing. Please. Please. Breathe. Please. 

Caretaker had screamed when Whumper had, rather unexpectedly, stabbed Whumpee in the chest with the long knife they now held and inspected closely. It was coated to the hilt in blood. 

Whumper frowned as they fisted Whumpee’s hair in their hand and lifted Whumpee’s head. Whumpee’s eyes were open and empty, completely devoid of life. 

“NO!” Caretaker screamed as their greatest fear was realized. 

“You promised to be more fun than Caretaker,” Whumper hissed into Whumpee’s slack face. “You promised you  would make it good for me. And you did. You were so,” Whumper licked the blood dripping from Whumpee’s lips, “so good.”

“Leave them alone. Please,” Caretaker begged. They couldn’t stand to see Whumper handle Whumpee so roughly. Couldn’t stand to see Whumper touch Whumpee. 

Whumper pulled Whumpee’s hair tight, bowing their neck back.  “You were fun. But you broke. They always break. I thought you wouldn’t break. Not yet at least. That you would last longer. You’re useless now.” Whumper dropped Whumpee’s head violently. Whumpee’s head lolled forward, blood dripping once more onto the ground. 

Caretaker let out a mix of a roar and a keening cry. Whumper laughed harder as they left Caretaker alone with Whumpee’s body. “What ever will you do now, Caretaker?” 

Caretaker didn’t know what they would do. They didn’t know what to do. All they could do was watch Whumpee’s body drip blood onto the floor. All they could do was feel useless as they let Whumpee get stabbed. Let Whumpee die. This was all their fault. And they couldn’t do anything to fix it.

Day 30: Note to self: don’t get kidnapped

Manhandled | Hair grabbing | “Please don’t touch me”

“You a cop?” The man’s eyes rake over Buck’s uniform.

“Firefighter,”

He scoffs and swings the bag over his shoulder, freeing his other hand to fist itself into the front of Buck’s shirt. “Still a fucking uniform,” He uses the grip to spin Buck around, the hand now grabbing at his collar causing the fabric to tighten a fraction around his neck, and he shoves Buck forward until he slams into the wall adjacent to the doors. Peering around he can see the engine waiting over the street, Bobby's arm propped on the open window with his fingers tapping against the panel of the door. “That you’re truck?” The man hisses, peering through the glass himself.

“Leave them out of this man,” Buck pleads, his heart skipping a beat at the idea of his family being caught in any sort of crossfire. “If you leave now I won’t say anything. I’ll tell the police I didn’t see anything.”

Whumptober Day 30

Hair Grabbing 

Spoiler: This is an excerpt from The Wrong Timetravelers

“Did that make you stop hurting anyone?” duck-lady snaps back, “Why do you think you deserve any different?”

Crying is stupid and pointless and shameful, but he can’t help it. “You’re Jedi. Why are you doing this?”

“The Council doesn’t care what happens to you,” one of the others replies, “Not so long as you’re not a problem. And you’ll learn some of what you did to so many others.”

“Do you think I don’t already know?” he demands, “That I wouldn’t undo it all if I could? That I – I –”

“Nothing will change what you did,” the former-padawan replies sharply. “You’re a monster.”

“And monsters aren’t given mercy when they don’t grant it to others,” duck lady says, moving closer again. He looks away, heart hammering wildly as she approaches him, standing right in front of him.

“I can’t live with that,” he protests again, pleadingly. He knows they won’t listen, but he can’t – can’t –

“Watch,” she orders, gleefully, grabbing a handful of his hair and jerking his head upwards to watch as they burn the Sith symbol into his skin, right over his heart, and all he can think of is burning like he was on Mustafar and the droids cutting his chest open right afterwards. His vision is blurred with the tears running down his cheeks.

“Maybe you should have thought about it before joining Sidious,” one of the still-unnamed ones says.

He lands face-first on the floor when they finally let him go, panting, gasping. He doesn’t know how long it took for him to finally move from that position, the memories still burning in his mind.

nano 2023 let's gooo

Well, friends, it's that time of year again. Why I have once again decided to leap straight from Whumptober to Nanowrimo, no one knows, but here we go.

The difference from 2022 to 2023: last year, for both Whumptober and Nano, I was "playing to win" (so to speak —playing against myself, of course), while this year I wasn't/will not be. Like, if I end up writing 50,000 words this November, great!

But. I have an issue with being competitive (again, only against myself; I hate competing against others in most contexts) and I know I will get obsessive about 1667 words every day and getting every single badge, etc., etc.

So I'm just...not.

I don't have a word count goal. The goal is simply to finish the first draft of angsty heist wip. If I can, great. If not, great. I started it in April, got distracted by TQOL and life, and the poor story's been languishing around the midpoint since I put it aside. I think if I can push beyond the midpoint, I'll be all right. But even if that turns out not to be true—oh well!

I'm still going to work on TQOL, and since I've fallen into editing TPOT and have been looooooving that process, I'm going to keep doing that, too. So this Nano is really just going to be about doing the writing things I want to do and that make me happy, and if angsty heist wip gets finished as part of that journey, well, bonus.

Is this more a #CalmWriMo as coined by @winterandwords? Why, I suppose it is. Thanks for putting forth the idea and the hashtag. 😊

Anyway. Happy November, happy Nanowrimo, happy Calmwrimo, happy another day of being alive, and happy writing!

Bonus lines for anyone who made it to the bottom of this ramble lolololol.

From The Queen of Lies chapter whatever-the-hell-it-is-now-this-one-used-to-be-chapter-7:

In the faintest reaches of her heart, she allowed herself to grieve ever so little, and to wonder if she would ever see him again.

I made it to Chapter 30 in editing The Prince of Thieves, oh god oh god:

“I don’t know anything else,” she says, her voice shaking. She’s half off the floor, frozen now, breath coming in little bursts. I know, whether I live beyond today or not, I will never be able to forget this moment—her terrified gasping, her wide eyes, the way her chest rises and falls so fast it’s hard to follow. My hand tingles, fuzzy and warm in memory of how it clung to hers all night, and I am struck with how much the idea of Hatchett ending Bree Cooper’s life threatens to rip me apart from the inside.

nothing for angsty heist wip lol I'm sure those will be forthcoming throughout the month

Team Iron Man (Current WIP): Isn’t it great to be the good guy who has never made a single mistake? How horrible and nasty are Team Cap for making poor Tony so sad and hurt. Well, at least he has Peter and Rhodey. They’re not acting weird. Don’t worry about it. Everything is perfect. This fic has been in my outline folder forever, and even though the time for it has probably passed, I think about often enough that I still want to write it. This is a Civil War Fix-It that’s intended to be a loving parody of the Irondad fandom, and a not-so-loving parody of the more extreme anti-Team Cap fics. No sides taken, no character bashing, happy ending.

I'd screamed, sobbed, wailed, and just about every other sound that could signal I was not supposed to be trapped… wherever the hell I was currently trapped at.

Only… no noise was escaping my lips?

My eyes darted open (I didn't even know I still had the ability to do that in my current state), landing directly on someone who was in the same position as I was—painted up with makeup, sporting a fancy dress, and immobilized, most likely due to whatever this freak was shooting into her veins via the IV my eyes wandered to.

I managed to look down at my own arm, noticing I too was being injected with whatever this seamstress-turned-kidnapper's preferred paralytic drug was.

"She's coming back," she struggled to say, her head pointed toward the floor.

My eyes flickered in the same direction, landing on a third woman, who was presumably in the same condition as us.

I watched as she managed to climb back into her chair, acting as casually as possible, considering the circumstances.

My heart raced as our kidnapper stepped back into the room, a panicked look spread across her face. As if she were the one who should be panicking.

Her face only contorted more as she noticed the disassembled mannequin laying on the floor. "I must've missed that part too," I thought to myself.

Next thing I knew, her hand was grasped around a pair of tailor's shears, her panic turning to disappointment. "Don't leave me," she practically begged the third woman.

She maneuvered her head to make eye contact with our kidnapper (admittedly something I wouldn't have had the gumption to do if she were holding scissors that close to me). "Let us go," she said, struggling to get her words out.

"I can't," she replied in a pout.

"Like hell you can't," I wanted to say. If it weren't for my lack of strength and the fact that she was holding shears, I might've let the sentence slip.

And then, in the amount of time it took to snap your fingers, it happened. I knew I'd be rescued.

"Samantha," an oddly familiar voice spoke behind me. Where did I know that voice? "Hi, my name's Spencer. I'm with the FBI."

My mind went hazy as I processed his words. Did the FBI really care enough to get involved in a couple missing persons' cases? I recalled wondering who'd want to put out a missing persons' report for me.

I wasn't sure how much time had passed, but the next thing I knew, I was surrounded by medics, the one on my right cleaning up where my IV had been placed while the one on my left listened to my heart beat.

Within minutes, I'd already started to feel my senses come back. Though it was a small victory, I'd never found so much relief as I had in discovering that I'd regained the ability to wriggle my fingers and toes.

The voice from earlier returned as he walked around the table, standing where all three of us could see him. "My name is Spencer Reid. I'm with the FBI," he repeated, his hands clasping together awkwardly. I could tell by the look on his face that he was internally searching for his words.

His face. Where did I know that face from?

His face. I could've stared at it all day if I'd been allowed to. I probably could've gotten away with it too, played it off later like the drugs had still been in my system, slightly paralyzing the movement of my eyes.

I held back my gazing, though I internally replayed visions of his features, from those hazel eyes to the tiny divot on his chin to the light shadow of a mustache above his perfectly plump lips.

OK, seriously, why could I recall so much about this man I'd just spent no more than seven seconds looking at?

"I'm Agent Rossi," a man with lightly peppering, raven hair spoke, breaking me from my strange state of déjà vu. "If it's OK, Agent Reid and I would like to collect some statements from you ladies once you've been thoroughly looked over at the hospital."

One of the other women managed a moan that signaled understanding, while I managed two nods of the head. I internally rejoiced once more at my second, small victory.

The entire ambulance ride, I thought about Agent Reid, beating myself up for not remembering where I'd previously run into this man. I played through flashback after flashback, memory after memory, attempting to place this FBI agent with stupidly pretty, shoulder-length hair.

I thought about it through my exam. I thought about it as I lightly chewed on a cup of ice chips one of the nurses brought me. I thought about it as he stepped behind the curtain, file in one hand and pen in the other, prepared to interview me.

"Hi, I'm Dr. Reid," he reintroduced himself for a third time.

Doctor Reid… why did that sound more familiar?

"I'm here to collect a few statements for the FBI, if that's OK," he continued on.

I nodded silently, swallowing down another ice chip. "I'm Y/N Y/L/N," I clarified, knowing he'd probably ask me for that anyway.

I noticed his eyebrows ruffling as he sat down, mouth creasing tightly as opened the file.

The room stayed silent for a beat, our eyes surveying each other as the two of us slowly realized that the other person was also experiencing a strange case of déjà vu. My cheeks felt hot as I processed how long his eyes had been on me.

He licked his lips lightly, an expression of either regret or embarrassment coming over his face. "Pardon me, but don't I know you from somewhere?"

Somewhere… the flash of a casino surged through my mind.

"Oh, my God! The Grand Diamond!" I finally placed his face. "You're the one who got banned after the owner lost $8,000 to you on discount night!"

His face blushed crimson, as if he'd almost forgotten this event. "I guess you're right. That did happen, didn't it?" he said, scratching at the back of his neck.

"Yeah, I used to be a bartender there."

His eyes narrowed, like he was remembering something else. "Yeah, you're the one that makes those delicious mojitos."

This time, I blushed. "I don't know about that. It might've just been that you had three of them. If I'd had that many, I would've passed out on the poker table," I joked.

My joke elicited a small chuckle to escape his lips. "I'm just glad to know my card counting abilities still stand even in my state of tipsiness."

Soon enough, he'd collected my statements, which was less than a fun experience for me, considering I had to relive all the events I'd been through in the last twenty-four hours.

I watched as he stood up from his chair, filed clutched closely to his chest as if he were afraid of losing it. He gave me a kind, farewell smile as he stepped closer to the curtain.

I couldn't tell who was more shocked when I spoke up one last time. "Hey, Dr. Reid?"

He turned back to face me, eyebrows furrowed once again. "Yes?"

"I, uh…" I searched for something to say, knowing that no matter what I said, I'd just incriminate myself. After a few awkward seconds of silence, I landed on, "I know of some really fun casinos in the area, much better than the Grand Diamond, considering it's not all that grand."

His mouth formed into a closed-lip grin. "We'll have to compare and contrast our lists, considering I've been kicked out of a majority of casinos here," he chuckled, reaching in his back pocket.

I nearly shivered as our fingertips brushed together, my eyes watching as he seamlessly slipped a business card into my palm.

"Get well soon," he commented as he turned away, and I could've sworn I heard him smirk (if that was possible).

"Hmm," I hummed to myself, "Maybe déjà vu isn't so bad after all."

Welcome one and all to my first Whumptober post! I hope you all enjoyed! 5x12 is definitely one of my favorite episodes and when I saw the "paralytic drugs" prompt, it automatically reminded me of this episode and I knew I had to write this!

Thank you all for being patient with me as I finished editing. This was of course supposed to be posted on the first, which i guess it's still technically the first in some places. Anyway, I apologize for this one being late but I promise, the rest will be posted on time! 🫶🏻

Whumptober 2022 Day 30: Manhandled

AU for The Rundown Job (related to Day 19 prompt fill). After the bomb has been dealt with and the bad guy taken out by Eliot (and Eliot has got himself shot twice), Eliot realises that the people coming into the tunnel to deal with the aftermath are not Vance's guys, so he tells Parker and Hardison to go back and find a different exit, promising to follow after them after the hand-off to the authorities. They get to safety, but Eliot is arrested by people who want to take Vance down for illegal operations, and want to torture Eliot to get intel on things Vance has done.
