I am pleased to say that by the end of this month I will have published three (3) fics on ao3 that I have been hard at work on for the past few months.
'How did we get here?' Is one of my most asked for fics. A Dp×DC cross over in which Danny goes to Gotham, meets the ghosts of Thomas and Martha Wayne and gets questioned by Batman is in the works! It's supposed to be a one-shot maybe 3 chapters at the max. (50/50 it'll be longer than that tho-) This is supposed to be updated every Friday (don't hold me to it.)
'Slight Changes' is mainly based on parts of the Batfam and may extend to other DC characters but is based entirely on them. Multi-chapter fic, don't know how long it'll be though. The only hint I'll give is that it's set in a mirror dimension. This is supposed to be updated every Saturday (again, don't hold me to it.)
'The Knights daughter' is a long Multi-chapter fic set mainly on the Batfam. (This has some (alot-) of my OC's in it.) A short synopsis is that Bruce has a daughter he didn't know about, he goes to find said daughter and she is more than he expected her to be in more than one way. This is supposed to be updated every other Wednesday (say it with me, don't hold me to it.)
'How did we get here?', 'Slight Changes' and 'The Knights Daughter' will all be available on my ao3 page. They will all be posted on the 29th. Thank you for your patience!
FULL WARNING, this may gross some people out. So don't say I didn't warn you!!
Regarding Cassandra Wayne, would she have gotten a reverse vasectomy like black widow?
I understand that she was specifically born to be a weapon to the league and girls, specifically, have a time of the month that makes them very weak. So wouldn't the league just... get rid of it?
I could be wrong, but it would make a lot of since that the league simply remove the problem instead of having two other league members try for a boy instead of a girl.
Then I remembered that in the MCU the black widow's all had a reverse vasectomy to make them all into absolute weapons. So the league could've definitely thought the same idea and just removed her fallopian tubes. But again, I could be wrong.
I felt the same way when I was finally thinking of uploading my fic, only to find Ao3 down.
Now I may never upload
day 1 without ao3: i have gone through all 5 stages of grief multiple times and have invented a 6th. i will not disclose what the 6th stage of grief is.
I laughed way to hard at this
The craving to shuffle ones vertebrae like playing cards in order to crack ones back is strong today
Quick update on 'How did we get here?' And my two other DC works.
I am in the hospital so they will not get posted tomorrow. They will most likely get posted Monday or Tuesday. Thanks for all that have been reading and leaving comments. I read every single one of them and they have helped me progress this story, do thanks for that!
And I was right, the DP × DC crossover will be more than three chapters. I will try to keep it small but I have little hope for that.
The red haired Robin is Carrie Kelley and has been around since the 80s! She’s considered an elseworld Robin bc she’s canon in the millerverse but not main continuity. You’re nearly spot on abt all of the other robins though (Tim was actually 3rd before Stephanie. It was a Whole Thing)
Duke’s robin status is a bit more contentious bc there were a LOT of kids calling themselves robin at that time. So there’s a LOT more than even 8 robins if ya count him 😂 (& not to mention the other elseworld/future-verse robins all thru DC history lol)
God damn, thanks for telling me. I got a lot to read apparently 😅
When I tell you I fucking shri3ked when I got Jason. I love this dude so much, I don't mind getting shit on because of it. And ofc I'm a theater nerd, we never die, just evolve.
Something I didn't know I needed to read. Happy pride everyone. 🏳️🌈
I’m watching that documentary “Before Stonewall” about gay history pre-1969, and uncovered something which I think is interesting.
The documentary includes a brief clip of a 1954 televised newscast about the rise of homosexuality. The host of the program interviewed psychologists, a police officer, and one “known homosexual”. The “known homosexual” is 22 years old. He identifies himself as Curtis White, which is a pseudonym; his name is actually Dale Olson.
So I tracked down the newscast. According to what I can find, Dale Olson may have been the first gay man to appear openly on television and defend his sexual orientation. He explains that there’s nothing wrong with him mentally and he’s never been arrested. When asked whether he’d take a cure if it existed, he says no. When asked whether his family knows he’s gay, he says that they didn’t up until tonight, but he guesses they’re going to find out, and he’ll probably be fired from his job as well. So of course the host is like …why are you doing this interview then? and Dale Olson, cool as cucumber pie, says “I think that this way I can be a little useful to someone besides myself.”
1954. 22 years old. Balls of pure titanium.
Despite the pseudonym, Dale’s boss did indeed recognize him from the TV program, and he was promptly fired the next day. He wrote into ONE magazine six months later to reassure readers that he had gotten a new job at a higher salary.
Curious about what became of him, I looked into his life a little further. It turns out that he ultimately became a very successful publicity agent. He promoted the Rocky movies and Superman. Not only that, but get this: Dale represented Rock Hudson, and he was the person who convinced him to disclose that he had AIDS! He wrote the statement Rock read. And as we know, Rock Hudson’s disclosure had a very significant effect on the national conversation about AIDS in the U.S.
It appears that no one has made the connection between Dale Olson the publicity agent instrumental in the AIDS debate and Dale Olson the 22-year-old first openly gay man on TV. So I thought I’d make it. For Pride month, an unsung gay hero.
Fic updates will be a little late, but it will get posted later today. Idk who's reading this and where they are in the world, but I'm in EST and I have not sleeped at all. It will be updated today.
Is it just me or is everytime I count Robin's I always end up with a different number?
Here me out! Here is my thought process: there's the (1st) original boy wonder (Dick Grayson) without a doubt, the (tragic) second Jason Todd, a little bit of Stephanie (3rd) but I count her anyway. Tim Drake makes 4 and Damian makes 5.
But then I remembered the little side quest with Duke Thomas (6th), then I start thinking of Teen Titans Go (yes I watched that horid show, don't ask) and in one episode there were 4 other versions of Robin (that I remember seeing, I could be wrong-). One of them definitely had red hair and I know for a fact they weren't Barbara Gordan (7th).
And for the sake of my mental health, I don't count the raven haired other Robins in that episode. Counting the forth on there own, makes 8.
So, correct me if I'm wrong, but to my knowledge there has been eight (8!) Robin's.
I am new to the Batfam as I just recently started getting into the Batman comics, shows and movies, but GODDAMN.
I UNDERSTAND if the Robin mantle might need to be replaced after a few years, but Bruce's going through children like reading the news.
Thank you for coming to my brain dump.
