Fic idea: it's kinda ridiculous but I thought it would be fun.

The entire batfam (Alfred, Bruce, Dick, Barbara, Jason, Tim, Steph, Cass, Damian, Duke, Kate, Luke Fox, Lucius Fox, I think that's all of them?) die and get Isekai'd to their own personal fantasy world and they also have a hub world where they can visit and figure out how to get back.

Alfred and Jason get sent to your classic magic medieval fantasy world (if we're talking specifically I'm thinking maybe The Wheel of Time in the 4th age with both of them being ridiculously powerful Ashaman)

Lucius and Tim (maybe Luke too? Idk much about him) are sent to a super technologically advanced world (maybe star wars/trek or Cyberpunk 2077?)

Steph, Cass, and Damian get sent to your classic Wuxia world. Cass and Damian are the children of the Heavenly Demon and Steph is the daughter of the Murim Alliance Leader.

Duke and Kate get sent to the cliché Gate manhwa (maybe Solo Leveling? Have them become the heirs of 2 of the monarchs?)

Bruce gets sent into Warhammer 40k and is one of the missing Primarchs.

Finally Dick and Babs get sent into a magic academy Manhwa.

Within their hub world they basically hang out and compile all the stuff they manage to learn from their worlds and eventually after about a year has passed in all their worlds they are given a condition for being able to open a portal back and forth between the hub and their original world: conquer your world.

They each have various reactions because their positions are wildly different in their worlds.

It takes them 1000 years primarily because Bruce has to conquer an entire galaxy of Xenophobes, Demon Gods, angry mushroom orks, robot hiveminds, and the Tyranids. Everyone else is done within 200 years and have been sitting pretty ruling their worlds since they're all biologically immortal thanks to all the magic and powers they have from their various dimensions.

TLDR: batfam gets Isekai'd and eventually comes back to Gotham as isekai protagonist gods

This belongs here. Me and the homies love this man's chaotic lore.

Today (June 12) is officially Hiveminds birthday according to his dossier, so I thought I would continue making birthday posters for characters, which means it's now Hiveminds turn!

But wait, that's not all!

I also finished the Hivemind voice line compilation just in time for today as well, so here's that as well!

Summary of the current state of the Chess/AION ARG from both a real life and lore perspective as of 9:19pm PST below the cut, for any guardians interested in catching up. Copy pasted from Discord from a few hours ago but there's been little progress on the state of the board so. Sorry if it's a bit hard to read.

After compiling together a bunch of people's different chess boards they got from completing a game in Eris' throne world that can be done once you collected all the chess pieces in the world that spawned last week, a bunch of streamers were able to piece together a QR code that led to the following site: http://aion-archives.net/ If you complete the puzzle, which is 27 weird chess boards you have to solve, you will be able to interact with a bowl of water that says "the water reveals" and it will give you a four number code (Signal Frequency x----) from 0001 to 4096, along with a custom chess board that you should take a photo of. If you plug in your chess board to any kind of chess site and receive the chess notation or FEN number, you can go to AION and input the following: your frequency number, and then the FEN number minus a few pieces. This will give you one of three things: Green text saying match confirmed, blue text saying data corrupted, or purple text saying quantum spin failed. The last one means you input your FEN notation wrong, while the first two mean you successfully put in the FEN notation. Meanwhile, people are also piecing together each unique board generated to match a frequency by their borders, and lining them into smaller chess boards assembled out of either red or grey tiles. By finding the piece in that bigger chess board created by the smaller chess board that would create some certain checkmate condition, this piece can be plugged into the in-game chessboard and if you complete a square successfully pillars around the arena will light up. They have the middle square done as of right now.

A handful of numbers on the website from frequency signals, as well as a bunch of other random dates (typically in coordination with stuff to do in either Destiny/Bungie or actual real life chess history) will spit out little bits of lore from the terminal. AION stands for the Apollo Intertemporal Observation Network, and we previously heard a mention of an "AION Initiative" back in some of the dialogue you can unlock from Vesper's Host by progressing through the puzzles in the questline. This was mentioned alongside the likes of Rasputin and Soteria, who we know are BrayTech AI. This fact also came to us from Astraea, who herself is a BrayTech AI. It is also very likely that the corrupted data outputs in some way link to the Corrupted Puppeteer, which is a failed BrayTech AI attempt to simulate a Vex Mind that possesses the ability to jump across various hosts and was able to construct some kind of neural network hivemind amongst House Salvation refugees on the Vesper Station.

A dialogue piece that only unlocks once the questline is finished actually reveals the message that was received through the Anomaly, and it is essentially that of someone named "Lodi" communicating that they are adrift. It is very likely this person is connected to AION. Additional texts you can receive from the website are prompts about an experiment starting today, traveling to another star, and a bunch of shit relating to astrophysics. If you bug the terminal too much, it will literally IP ban you which has happened to some unfortunate people in the twitch chat.

What is most interesting is that the code for the chess puzzle was cracked by uncorrupting FEN notations held behind the following set of numbers: 10071956 (I believe). This date aligns with some super important game in chess history, but importantly, you can see it be one of the dates counted down on the satellite in the short Edge of Fate teaser trailer.

and basically that is what we have so far

also if you input bungie related dates you can get easter eggs like pictures of a chess board made out of master chiefs

Right now a LOT of dialogue suggests stuff about jumping through space and time, which aligns with both what we know about the Nine and how the whole ARG is basically a game of 4D chess.

Do you have any headcanons about certain members of the House of Black?

House of Black Headcanons

I have far too many, dearest star, hence what I had thought would be a little 50K fanfic turned into the ongoing 200K + beast that has taken over my life outside of academia.

I feel like I could spend hours, until Merlin comes again, compiling all of the headcanons for each member because trust I have thought about them ALL.

Something that makes it easier for me to manage all of these headcanons for this family is archetyping.

And it all starts with the number 3.

What some, in the wizarding world, might think of as "foul, creepy Black Family practices" is literally just them sticking to their roots as witches and wizards. In a way, it is another aspect of them living to the family motto Toujours Pur--their blood AND their magic shall always be pure.

Their practises are very pagan-like, traditional, outside the bounds of the morally acceptable magical craft. Therefore, I have headcanoned them to dabble in things like sentient magical homes, blood magic, blood pacts for intermarriage with other pureblood families, archiving family histories and grimoires and research. They have an ancient practice of reading the Tapestry in Grimmauld to divine family progress and futures and to read about the past. They venerate their ancestors before the Tapestry. When they die, they come back as portraits so that they will always have a means of communication between the dead and the living, thus immortalising them in some way. They are famed in astrology and astronomy, charms and transfigurations. They thrive with potions because they have access to knowledge of multicultural ingredients that are otherwise known as illegal by modern wizarding standards. And finally, they always consider numerology.

Numerology and the Black Family go hand in hand to me. It is the branch of knowledge that entails conspiring with occult significances of numbers.

If we look at the canon Black family tree, we can see that a good amount of them have an heir and a spare or aim to have at least three children. Three is birth-life-death. It is mind-body-soul. It is the Earth-Sun-Moon. It is completeness, harmony, wealth, balance. To the Black Family, the number three is safe.

As fun as it is to deduce these sibling/cousin (because... incest) dynamics to Eldest-Middle-Youngest child theory, I like to see it as something else, which I've touched on in Everything Matter's Ch. XX:

Star-Saint-Snake OR Star-Snake-Saint OR Saint-Snake-Star

These three archetypes are how I choose to sort them and manage my headcanons because as unique as everyone's personality can be, this family is a hivemind. We see it with Sirius even after being sorted into Gryffindor and being socialised with "good" people, he still exhibits classical Black family traits. But I digress.

Star:

Named after a celestial being and is usually the first-born child, therefore the heir.

Pressured by the burdens of being the eldest, the heir or having to be the child that steps up to the expectations of what it means to be a Black.

Usually, the one who continues the main branch of the family name.

Is extremely naturally intelligent, skilled in one particular field of magic despite being well-rounded as per their family customs.

These children are stubborn, confident, bold and firm--they literally the foundations of the generation.

Some examples: Sirius Orion Black, Bellatrix Lestrange (nee Black), Walburga Irene Black, Pollux Black.

Saint:

Usually not named after a celestial being but if they are, the meaning is far more in tune with the definition/role of a saint.

These are the children who are usually the second-born or youngest, the ones who strive and aspire to be as seen and desired as the heir/star, or at the very least acknowledged in some way.

This role is often given to daughters, those who will carry on the family name through blood.

These children are true jack of all trades and masters of none--they are emotional, the healers, the observers, the giver even when no one asked them to.

In Catholicism, to be canonised as a saint one must have at least two out of the three great miracles: the resurrection of the dead, the complete cure (reconstruction of a person judged to be incurable) or curing of an illness. These children often have performed these miracles without them knowing on a small scale with few witnesses and therefore will not be seen as the saints that they are.

Some examples:

Regulus Arcturus Black (survives 1979 and has a child); Narcissa E. Black (could read the Tapestry, is gifted in healing magic, has a child); OC Vérene Rasalas Black (has literally done all of the above)

And finally, we have Snakes:

These are the ever changing, quietly or loudly rebellious children who are neither the first nor second choice.

They have more freedom than their siblings but are still carrying the weight of family laws, expectations, and are often forgotten or neglected.

They can be named after anything and thus they can become anything, names have power, I fear.

These are the children who appear to be the generational curse breakers and have the potential to succeed if they are able to continue to withstand and unlearn their family's inherited traits/teachings.

They are cunning, resilient and are often the backbones of their sibling/generational unit because they turn to career fields that help build and maintain connections within the wizarding world, all for the sake of their family.

Some examples: Cassiopeia Black, Alphard Pollux Black, Andromeda Tonks (nee Black)

The best part about these archetypes is that at some point in their lives they will each have fallen into the roles of either being a Saint, Snake or a Star--regardless of their gender and sexual orientation and the path that they stride.

Sirius was raised a Star and became a Snake.

Walburga was raised a Saint, became a Star, reverted back into a Saint.

Alphard was raised a Star and became a Snake.

Cygnus was a Snake and wanted to be a Saint.

Cassiopeia was raised a Saint and became a Snake.

Regulus was raised a Snake, became a Saint, turned into a Star.

Orion was raised a Snake and became a Star.

Narcissa was raised a Snake and became a Saint.

Bellatrix was raised a Saint and became a Star.

Andromeda was raised a Snake and became a Star.

Vérene is the literal embodiment of a Saint but depending on the circumstances weaves in and out of being a Snake and Star.

I could write an entire thesis on each of these archetypes and their complexities, and I probably will because this post is just scratching at the surface of it.

With all of this being said, I feel like I should lighten the mood with some lighter headcanons because yes, even in toxic/abusive households, love once lived there:

Pollux was born the only surviving twin, and their sibling would have been named Castor -- two years later, he was given a little sister named Cassiopeia. They complete one another in ways that only they will understand, is if Castor was reborn to join Pollux. Where Pollux is of dark grey eyes, black hair, warm toned pale skin, Cassiopeia is of light blue/grey eyes, pale blonde hair, cool toned pale skin. They contrast and complement one another beautifully. Plus, they love to gossip, they can do so like how twins just know each other.

Cassiopeia was aro/ace.

Pollux was highly skilled in Alchemy and Charms. Cass was highly skilled in craft-related transfiguration magic, like knot and weaving magic. (She is a highly qualified seamstress and sells magically imbued clothing wear; tends to make items for the family so that they will always have a piece of the family's magic with them).

Where you saw Pollux with Cass, you saw Marius with Dorea. Even without magic, Marius Black was skilled in potion making and translated many things that required corporeal magic into something that he could use. Thus, his potions turned into making tinctures and later with the use of more mundane/muggle ingredients he became something of akin to a herbalist. He had been the one to help Dorea with her studies at home and briefly her homework from Hogwarts.

On that note, yes, Marius Black ran away. Only then do I believe was he scorched from the Tapestry because even though it was such a shame that he did not have magic he was still their blood. He later married a muggle woman named Lucille Florence and together they had a girl named Aster Carintha Black (the recessive magical carrier that starts a muggleborn family line that will be explored in the sequel of Everything Matters).

Orion and Alphard were born in the same year (1929), just as Lucretia and Walburga were (1925). Their nicknames were Barnebe, Al, Lucy and Wal.

Orion had the fattest crush on Walburga. It's true I was there.

Walburga, who was on the path of a Star as her father's first Heir Apparent, who later turned Saint, carried a lot of guilt and shame for liking her cousin and for the way she tended to look at girls at school as well.

Walburga was a daddy's girl, Pollux's favourite. Alphard was Irma's favourite but became Cassiopeia's boy. Cygnus was a mama's boy but was also raised by Walburga. Orion was his big sister, Lucretia's boy. Lucretia was Arcturus's dear girl until she married a Prewett.

Alphard was highly skilled in Memory Magic, creating subsections of the branch of study that are nearly unheard of or no longer in practice. Walburga was highly skilled in Divination but was not allowed to pursue a career in it even as a gifted Seer. Orion was highly skilled in Arithmancy.

Arcturus (Son of Sirius and Hesper) was one sour little boy but gods, his brothers Lycoris and Regulus loved him so much despite it. Lycoris was fun-loving and Regulus was a metamorphmagus who often morphed into family members while at school to attend their classes (you can imagine how tired the staff must have been). Arcturus was never truly the same after they died. Both of them came back as portraits after their death and prefer to live with their grumpy big brother still.

Sirius I Black (1845-1853) was a charismatic and sweet boy known for his musical ear. He did not have a portrait and came back as a ghost because of his sudden death. He tends to play the piano at family events and is both inquisitive and shy.

Elladora Black is the reason why we have The Hall of Elladora in House Lycoreia, the first ancestral home of the Blacks, located Blackpool.

Phineas Nigellus Black was an undiagnosed autistic man, I cannot make this up, Hogwarts Legacy has showed me things I cannot unsee or hear.

Queerness and Neurodivergence run rampant in this entire family. These things really can be hereditary :)

I hope that this post wasn't too long and that you like them, dearest.

As always thank you for asking me and being interested.

Dump:

Traffic ate a cigarette on accident once. He frequently swallows stuff on accident. You know the you eat 6 spiders a year while sleeping thing? That's him but flies

Since Icedagger is missing I think he's just in an elsa-style castle somewheres in blackrock where it's so cold no one lives there and makes watercolor paintings. I feel like he's been trapping himself there ever since his siblings and the inpherno as a whole got a wee bit too chaotic for him, like since the untitled war that ended recently in the universe started. He's not insane though don't worry, just a little mentally unstable.

Skateboard will skateboard in prohibited places. His gang is compiled of all self-driving gears with wheels: scooter, bicycle, rolleblades, rollerskates, unicycle, quadrocycle, motorcycle. The last two specifically are the oldest ones and most responsible and like the leaders because i said so

No one actually knows where the f*** Traffic came from, what's his past or what his original gear even was. He's just a mystery to everyone and too high to remember stuff.

Subspace's personality is just the lyrics of Candle Queen. I am not elaborating just listen to the song

Anakin has actually ate bugs in the 2001 Clone wars, and Shuriken eating bugs is just a hivemind headcanon of the fandom at this point, so they'd get a nice talk about that. Ahsoka would goof around with most of the younger phighters and I think Hyperlaser could have a nice chat about questioning authority with a random stormtrooper or clone trooper(Dogma specifically)

One time when bowling Steampunk let go of the ball too late and threw it into the ceiling. It landed on the upper floor of the bowling alley.
