[scintillyyy]

aw, thank you @silverwhittlingknife for the tag

WIP Files Game

RULES: post the names of the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, and then post a little snippet or tell them something about it! tag as many people as you have WIPs

listen i really only have one WIP atm (i'm not a writer and actually generally dislike working on more than one thing at once lmao <3) and it's the way larger than i expected canon rewrite (because i forgot how vast post-crisis was) (but i actually am over halfway done based on my outline i promise!!) with janet living instead of jack and it is lovingly titled

janet fic 2 the squeakquel

and since you combined the games, i shall to and here is an excerpt from the next chapter, last laugh, which is rough-drafted out and waiting for another read-through and edit after i finish up the fugitive/murderer chapter (which thankfully writing going much faster again because i finally get to give janet her only little storyline again rather than her just being present for canon events lmao.)

"A sweet tooth just like your son, huh?” Oracle shakes her head in mock-disgust, but her lips quirk into a small smile. “What’s the point of drinking coffee if you can’t actually taste the flavor of the beans?” Janet laughs.

“I’m surprised Tim even drinks it at all, to be honest,” Janet says, “He’s always hated bitter tastes. Once, when he was five, he snuck a chocolate bar out of my purse that I had put in there to snack on during work. And then gave me the silent treatment for an hour because it was clearly my fault that he was forced to steal and eat a dark chocolate bar instead of a milk chocolate one. He made quite the betrayed howl when he realized he didn't like his ill-begotten goods.”

Oracle lets out a laugh. “No wonder he has such a strong belief that crime doesn't pay. It's definitely not his go-to, but he'll force a cup down for the caffeine if there’s a pot on at two in the morning and everyone else is drinking it,” Oracle says. "But I'm not entirely sure you can even still call it coffee by the time he’s done destroying it. I think it was actually white from all the creamer and sugar he poured in it the last time he had some. I’m about to ban him from my kitchen for crimes against Arabica.”

and i'm not going to tag anyone because there's only one and i'm lazy, but anyone should feel free to do it if they like <3
