#bonus points for superbat here

[frownyalfred]

Bruce Wayne is so much stronger than me, because if I was him I would walk straight up to Lex Luthor at a fundraiser, lean down, and whisper you want to fuck Superman so bad it makes you look stupid in his ear before flitting away with zero context.

[o-kaythislooksbad]

@ailesswhumptober day 4: hiding an injury / betrayal / lying [does lying by omission count as lying? maybe. does clark hate that bruce knows about his past with lex? of course. does bruce think their relationship is a betrayal? absolutely. aka bruce finds out about kon's origins, and is not having a good time right now. adjacent to the titans fic, mostly just an exercise in writing m and dick as bros, and angsty superbat sharing a braincell]

"does supes know?" m asks, watching his husband throw kon into the air and catching him like it's the most natural thing in the world.

"yeah. he's visiting the cave, though the bat's barely talking with him. guy can really hold a grudge." dick yawns, then takes a sip of his coffee. it really is too damn early for this conversation, especially with the amount of people in the tower who can overhear them, either by sound or by thought.

"what's the bat got to do with anything?"

"superman's dna was used to make kon," dick starts, looking into m's eyes to try catching a glimpse of his brain at work. "the man of steel. the guy whose skin cannot be pierced with anything short of kryptonite, which neither luthor nor his associates possessed at the time of the kid's conception."

m's eyes light up. "and batman keep records and contingencies of all potential 'threats' in the cave," m nods. "so he must've sold out our boy in blue. that's cold."

"sure, we'll go with that answer," dick says, pointing at apollo with his mug, then raising it to the man's husband.

"no fucking way," m replies gleefully, "no. fucking. way. people call us the world's queerest as an insult to us and the world's finest, not as a comparison."

"to be fair, a lot of bigoted assholes do refer to you two that way."

- - - -

"a toothbrush? brucie, batsie, baby. love of my life. a toothbrush. one of the most disposable items in existence, as a gesture to your commitment. 'here, take this cheap plastic -"

"- it was three hundred dollars, clark - "

" - as a reflection of my devotion to you. and, as a bonus, i'll sell it to your worst enemy.' thanks a lot, b, i really appreciate it." clark hasn't raised his voice, not once, since his unexpected appearance at the cave, but his disappointment and rage is palpable. he's hovering a few feet above the ground, staring down at bruce, with the red in his eyes a fraction away from turning into laser beams and disintegrating him on the spot.

"it's in your favorite color, and your teeth are much stronger than any human's, clark; i designed it specifically for you." bruce's voice isn't breaking, it's not, because he's the batman and he doesn't get emotional over trivial things like this.

"bullshit!" clark swears, and really, it's almost a shame no one else is hear to catch the big blue boy scout uttering a no-no word. "it was one of your ploys to get my dna, for one of your end-of-the-world plans, and i was a fool to trust you."

"omaha." bruce barely exhales to form the word. clark can hear him, of course, he always can. but clark, bless his heart, is so caught up about the goddamn toothbrush that it takes him a beat to recognize that bruce said the code word.

"- could justify a high price point on a dental - wait. omaha?"

"omaha, smallville. ring a bell?"

"what?" clark asks softly as his feet connect with the stone floor. heat pools in his belly and burns his irises and he can taste the sweat on lex's upper lip.

"come on, clark. you can play the big dumb oaf all you want, but you can't look me in the eyes and tell me you really thought that your dental records would be enough to make him. there's still so much i don't know about your biology, but we both know that it takes more than saliva off a toothbrush to create a child."

A Mostly Successful Mission (Jason Todd X Male!Reader X Roy Harper)

Characters:  Jason Todd X Male!Reader X Roy Harper

Universe: DC, Justice League

Warnings: Injury, mild mention of blood

Request: Roy Harper/Male!Reader/Jason Todd - Male!Reader is part of the Justice League (assassin or a Bat 🙈). He's just been on a space mission w/ a few of the league w/ no contact to earth and when they get back to the watch tower partners are waiting for them (bonus points for Superbat). Some of em (M!R too) are injured and require some medical help. Jay&Roy take care of M!R and don't leave his side til they can snag him away to their safehouse and smother him in love, hugs and kisses?

“Will you stop pacing, you’re making me nervous.” Roy complained, watching as Jason, one of his partners, paced back and forth vigorously in one of  the large open hallways of the Justice League headquarters. There were a few others also there, though scattered around the building, waiting patiently for the same thing- the return of some of their peers from a mission, far away from home in space. They’d been gone about a month, and due to the team being in space, contact other for emergencies and status updates twice a day. However, a week after the team went out, there was communication issues on your ship, resulting in no contact until a few days ago- confirming you were all alive and the mission was a success- but that several had injuries, nothing too serious, but still some medical attention would be needed. 

“If I stop I’m gonna implode.” Jason mumbled as he continued, his arms were crossed in front of him, shoulders hunched and head low. Roy leant against the wall, arms also crossed, though every so often he’d rub the back of his neck and run a hand through his hair. The anxiety wasn’t felt by not only the pair, but several others in the building, also waiting for the arrival. On that ship was Clark, Diane, Victor, Oliver and yourself. The belief was that the least likely to be hurt would be Clark and Diane, which left you, Oliver and Victor, and they knew that more than one person was hurt- maybe everyone was hurt, and they didn’t know the full extent of the injuries. A cut or two? A concussion? Broken bones? The lack of information was enough to drive everyone insane, and to decide to expect the worst and hope for the best. Alfred was there to assist Barry in setting up the medical wing, his military experience and working for the Wayne family coming in handy at times like this. Talking of members of Jason’s family, his father was of course here, partially to support his son in this moment, but also to meet with his own significant other who also went on the trip- Clark. Bruce had been keeping everything together with such vital members being gone, and in this moment had been checking in on Jason and Roy, and any of his own anxiety about Clark he’d been keeping hidden, understanding that Clark was one of the less likely to be hurt in this situation. “What if they’re really hurt? Like really badly?” 

“If there was serious injury, they would have reported that.” Bruce’s voice echoed through the hallway, once again coming to check on the pair. Jason stopped to turn and look it him. “We’re expecting stitches, bandages, maybe the resetting of bones at worst, but nothing we can’t handle. If Y/N is hurt, where are you planning to take them to let them rest? Gotham isn’t exactly safe right now.” Bruce questioned, referring the the recent escape of Scarecrow, Firefly and Ivy. 

“We have a safehouse, it’s tucked away, fully serviced, practically safe from the apocalypse, and comfy.” Roy answered him. 

“Is it close enough to the manor in case you need something?” Bruce questioned further, knowing that it was hopeless to ask exactly where the safehouse was- Jason always refused to tell him so he couldn’t show up unannounced, and Roy respected that decision and did the same. 

“Yeah.” Jason answered curtly. “Have you heard anything else?” 

“They’re back on our radar, which means they're close. They should be here in the next few minutes. Everyone’s gathering at the bay’s entrance.” Bruce informed them, a silent invitation to join the others, that they took, following after him. 

Those final few minutes were painfully slow. Jason and Roy were shoulder and shoulder, looking straight ahead at the door, waiting for it to slide open, and finally have answers. The only time that this broke was when the pair would glance over to check on eachother, until eventually the door slid open, showing every member of the team, standing in front of them. For the most part. As presumed, Diana  and Clark were fine, but each of them were holding up a member of the team- Diana holding Oliver, and Clark holding you. Roy acted first, rushing to take you off of Clark and taking on your weight, Jason not far behind, Barry helping Diana with Oliver, who seemed semi-consious and worse out of you two, and so most of the medical attention was put onto him, with him immediately going to the medical bay, and Jason and Roy instead sat you down in the nearest seat and began to check you over themselves, finding a bang to the head, a few cuts and bruises elsewhere, but nothing broken, and you were conscious and aware. Jason lifted your head to look at him as he examined the bruise on your head, his other hand going to feel it before you swatted him away. 

“What happened?” Bruce asked, standing beside Clark, who also stayed to watch the three of you interact. Roy had picked up you were holding your side and was now insistent on looking at it, you quietly telling him you were fine, but now Jason was also insisting twice as sternly, and eventually you just gave in and let them examine your side. 

“We found trouble as we started the return trip. A blast went off. Nothing vital was ripped out and after looking at it, most of it was repairable, but the shockwave caught most of us off guard. Some of us were lucky and in the right place where all we got was a bump into a wall, but Oliver and Y/N were in part of the ship full of loose, heavy and sharp objects. They were both knocked out when we found them, but Y/N woke up not long after while Oliver stayed out of it for quite a while.” Clark explained, keeping his voice low and not above a whisper, leaning over to Bruce for him to hear as he spoke. “We ran some scans on the pair of them- Oliver needs to rest it off and have his arm looked at and some stitches, but Y/N got out of it fairly well all things considered. Nothing needs stitches and they just need some pain meds and some rest.” Clark spoke up a bit as he spoke that part, seeing Jason’s head twitch, acknowledging what was being said, and Roy also glanced up for a second, and his words calmed the pair down. 

“Alright, let’s get you home then. Do you want Takeaway?” Roy asked, both Jason and Roy helping you up, putting your arms around their necks. 

“Yeah, that sounds good. Can I pick a movie as well?” 

“Now you’re pushing your luck.” Jason teased as the pair started walking you down the hallway. 

“I’ll check in on them tomorrow, but I think they just need some time together.” Bruce commented once they were out of earshot. “In the meantime, are you staying with me tonight or going straight home?” 

“I’m not going to miss out on some time with you, bats.” Clark grinned, getting a faint smile from his partner, before the pair went to go check on the less fortunate from the mission.

Hope you like it! If you have any questions, please send them in!

[bought-the-bank]

After watching Shipper'sGuidetotheGalaxy SuperBat videos, I was curious to see what movies I could find and watch online. The following fanfic is inspired by Superman/Batman: Apocalypse, where through the lens of a shipper is like watching Clark and Bruce act as a married couple trying to keep their adopted daughter, Kara, safe.

If you like this story, please be sure to like, reblog and even comment - - bonus points if you want to offer any constructive criticism so that I can get better at writing these two! <3

Now, onto the story!

Water splashed up against the rocks as the waves came rolling in, one after the other. The smell of fresh, exotic flowers lingered in the air as a breeze brushed past Clark. His sigh lifted up from slightly chapped lips as he leaned further down, against the white marble railing that circled around the cliff's edge.

He knew that Bruce and Dianna were right. Of course they were right. Kara couldn’t be around, no-.. She couldn’t be trusted to be around other people until she had control over her own powers.

The scene that had unfolded two nights ago, the destruction that Kara had caused, Dianna was right to point out that no one would be safe until Clark's cousin understood, and mastered, her powers.

They were all lucky that night that the only damage that Kara had caused was directed to that of a couple of trees, a park bench, and a statue of Superman. Him. He remembered how the statue’s head fell to the ground with a thud, cracked the pavement and rolled an inch or two towards the grass. What if that had been Batman or Wonderwoman? Lyla? An innocent…

He closed his eyes, shoulders hunching, as he breathed out. How could he let it come so close to that? How could he risk other people’s lives so carelessly? Feeling his breath start to grow cold, he opened his eyes and watched as the railing in front of him started to freeze over. He had spent years learning how to control himself, but Kara…

Kara was not ready, not yet.

Was he truly ready like he had once thought that he was, when he was ready to blindly trust family over what he knew to be right and rational? Bruce had been sceptical from the beginning and while Clark had teased him about, saying that Bruce was always ready to be so cynical, was he right to do so? Clark’s blind optimism had already led to one evening where someone could’ve gotten hurt.

It just didn’t make any sense. In any other situation, had it been someone else, someone that he didn’t.. know… Clark would’ve  been there right beside Bruce and Dianna, making the necessary steps to make sure that a new ally could be safe to be around others. That they had control over their own powers in the way that Kara certainly did not. Was this something that Clark didn’t realise about himself, that he’d be willing to risk others for family?

‘Trust me,’ Bruce had urged him that night at the park, standing just outside of the shadows and just a few feet away from Superman’s own decapitated statue. Trust him.

In the moment when Clark couldn’t trust his own judgement, he could trust in Bruce’s. The closest connection that he had, outside of his own family, and until Kara had come falling from the sky was Bruce. Clark had always counted on Bruce, on and off the field, but could the same be said for him?

Would Bruce still trust him, if he was so quick to be rash and illogical?

“I know that you don’t agree with us bringing her here,” started Bruce as he stepped up onto the landing, close to where Clark was.

“It’s not…” Clark lifted his head up, “that I don’t understand why she’s here, it’s just…”

“You’d rather that she was somewhere closer to home base. We don’t have the resources there. Dianna’s people have offered to help, that is… if you stop interrupting their training.” He made a pointed look to Clark.

“I told  you, I don’t want Kara hurt.” Clark frowned. “And Lyla’s vision has me on edge. We don’t know who could be planning an attack or when. We don’t know if it’s someone from within or-..

“Do you really think one of Dianna’s people would betray her like that?”

A silence stretched out between them, only filled by the gentle sound of waves crashing, as their eyes met. Clark imagined that to a lot of people, Bruce hiding his face behind his cowl would make having conversations like this hard, not being able to read the other person’s facial features, not being able to see what was being said in the other person’s eyes. But as the silence dragged on, and they continued to look at each other, Clark could tell that Bruce knew that there was something more that he wasn’t saying. And Bruce was simply waiting for Clark.

“I made the wrong call,” admitted Clark. “I thought she was like me. She wouldn’t hurt anyone, not intentionally,” he quickly noted, noticing how the cowl was slightly pinched above one eye - Bruce raising an eyebrow at him. “But I forgot… Kara has only been here for less than a month. She hasn’t had the time, like I have, to learn how to use her powers, how to control them… I fought you and Dianna because I believed that she would be like me, but I-

“Got it wrong,” finished Bruce.

Clark lowered his head and looked back down at the ocean, letting out a sigh. Getting it wrong meant putting others at risk, something that he swore he would never do again.

“Your blind optimism,” started Bruce, stepping closer over to Clark until their shoulders brushed, “while at times, frustrate me to no ends, is still an admirable quality. Certainly not something you’ll see me emulating anytime soon.” He smirked as he heard Clark let out a soft chuckle.

“Kara is your cousin, Clark, and we will keep her safe. We’ll train her to be able to use her abilities as well as you do, and in time, she’ll prove to be a useful member of our team just like you thought she’d be.”

“That is,” started Clark, “if she wants to be. It has to be her choice.”

“Of course,” agreed Bruce, “Now, what do you say we head back down there? $50 says that Kara will keep her next opponent on their toes.”

Clark smiled. “Reporter salary, remember? And there’s no way that I’m betting against my cousin.”

Who's the better driver in the batfam?

Bruce: Will get you there on time, even in advance, but you better be latched down and belted to your seat five times because the corners are going to be cut sharpitty sharp -> no paint scraps to be reported though, good job, Bruce.

Dick: You'll get to your meeting right on time, or five minutes late max. He'll lull you in a false sense of security compared to Bruce's sharp turns, but at the most random moment he'll get the car on two wheels only, or something just as scarring as this, and you better not look at how red the yellow signals are -> maybe some paint scraps to be reported

Jason: He'll murmur "Close your eyes, man. Just close your eyes, bro" to you the whole time. You can hear curses and screeching tires and a stray cat yowling and random crash noises as you try hard not to look -> the paint scraps look suspiciously like Jason keyed the car afterwards as a fuck you to Bruce, but you're ten minutes early to your meeting, congrats.

Cass: You know she's been sparing her words so she can bitch at everyone who's slowing her down, you'll reach your point right on time never earlier never late, but there's a high possibility someone got torpedoed on the road -> the car is pristine.

Tim: You think you're doing good and he's abiding by the traffic laws, you're finally lulled into a false sense of security fifteen minutes in. Suddenly, a trap door opens in the road, the car goes down a tunel, why are you in the sewers? Tim is right next to you driving with the most bored face telling you about that one time he had Jason and Dick put him inside a canon so he could fly to Metropolis like a Super. You can't feel your head anymore, maybe it's the panic, you surface again, everything looks fine? Are you on the water??? The car is now a hovercraft, you cry a little, but then you're reaching destination, you're fine. -> Zero scratches on the car.

Duke: Everything seems fine until Duke asks you if you know what this button is for. You don't know, he doesn't know. You think this is the end of it: it ISN'T. Cue choose your own adventure: explosion / ejection seat (Duke) / ejection seat (You) / direct emergency line call to the JLA. You do end up at the meeting, miraculously on time, you don't know how. -> You both agree to never speak about the car to anyone.

Damian: The car doesn't make it, but you do. This was a test. He tells you "Hm. TT." and leaves

Wait, what is this? The smallest art dump in the world???

1 hour top each. Digital media, backgrounds from textures or photomanip.

Also, cards on the table I traced the kiss from a photo ref on the TimKon one because I was going for rough and quick and these kissing lips give me the hardest time. Second one is referenced from Eternal Embrace, from artist Patrick Reynolds:

Superbat Big Bang 2021 Masterlist

That’s a wrap!

Nineteen teams posted big bangs in this of the Superbat Big Bang. They wrote a total of 379,000 words, and made many, many pieces of beautiful art. Join us in giving everyone a hearty round of congratulations!

You can find art and fic created for this year’s bonus challenges (Hatober, and our weekly prompt challenges) at the end of this post. For a static version, click here or go to our sidebar.

See you next round!

Week One

July 11th Contact with the Enemy Gement, SDeeyS, VK Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent, Clark Kent/scary aliens, 14k, Explicit (DC Animated Universe) Aliens made them do it. To be fair, they made the aliens make them do it. But it’s not entrapment to suggest the aliens do it to Superman instead of the entire planet. Even if Superman’s really, really into it. In theory, at least. Maybe this was not the best plan. fic on AO3 | art by SDeeyS | art by VK | masterpost —

July 13th Rumors AgapantoBlu, lantaniel Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent, 10k, Teen & Up Audiences (No Specific Continuity) A series of warning bells went off in Bruce’s head. First, Clark had not wished him a good day nor slipped into any of the usual niceties that he swore had been imbued in his bones under Martha Kent’s tender cares. That never happened, not even when an alien invasion was actually happening. Second, Clark was not chuckling or sounding happy at all. Bruce had known the man for fifteen long years and the amount of times he’d allowed his bad moods to slip into one of their conversations without careful prodding could be counted on one hand. Third, he’d not even asked if Bruce was busy or why he’d demanded a distraction. Bad signs all over. Instinctively, Bruce found himself looking out the huge windows in Metropolis’ direction. “What happened?” “Lex is here.” fic on AO3 | art by lantaniel | masterpost —

July 15th Wisdom From The Best Mind bubbletea_kai, SDeeyS Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent, 19k, Mature Audiences (Justice Lords, Injustice: Gods Among Us, Alternate Universe) Sacrificing meant giving up something for the sake of others. That was what Bruce did for Clark’s sake. In between his conscience and emotions, Bruce chose the latter and abandoned the other. He believed in Clark’s decision to create a ‘better world’. However, as time went by, Clark’s definition of a ‘better world’ ruined Bruce’s psyche and made him unable to feel anything, including affection. A malfunctioned time portal sent Bruce to another universe. It is a universe in which Bruce chose his conscience over his emotions, and the World’s Finest no longer exist. fic on AO3 | art by SDeeyS | masterpost —

July 17th Flux Point butterflyslinky, comicArtistA, mashimero Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent, 25k, Mature Audiences (No Specific Continuity) Clark Kent returned from The War to an empty farm and too many ghosts. Bruce Wayne is running from Gotham, and his ghosts follow him. But maybe ghosts don’t have to come with sadness. fic on AO3 | art by comicArtistA | art by mashimero on AO3 | art by mashimero on Tumblr | masterpost —

Week Two

July 19th Another Week at Redfield Ranch dippkip, VK, comicArtistA Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent, Dinah Lance/Oliver Queen, Arthur Curry/Mera, implied Barry Allen/Hal Jordan, 18k, Teen & Up Audiences (No Specific Continuity, Alternate Universe) Clark is back from a year abroad studying in London with a brand new boyfriend. What better way for his friends to get to know the new man in his life than bringing him to their annual camping trip in the southern California high desert? An event that has the potential to be a week-long shovel talk slowly turns into a series of touching heart-to-hearts, moments of mutual understanding, and savage burns doled out with greatest affection. Bruce will survive this trial, but at what cost? (his dignity, probably) fic on AO3 | art by VK | art by comicArtistA | masterpost —

July 20th Lifeline colonel_bastard, nowrunalong Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent, 14k, Teen & Up Audiences (DC Extended Universe) It’s not the first time Martha Kent has been woken up by a phone call from her son in the middle of the night. It is, however, the first time that Clark has asked her if she can talk to Bruce instead. fic on AO3 | art by nowrunalong | masterpost —

July 21st Lux in Tenebris Percilout, Bonanza_Nuts Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent, past Clark Kent/Lois Lane, 19k, Teen & Up Audiences (DC Extended Universe) When he starts losing his powers half a year after his return to the world of the living, it is up to Clark to figure out how to live without them. Through Lois, he finds himself doing charity work. Through the charity work, he finds much more than he ever could have hoped for. (Or, Clark Kent’s guide on how to beat depression.) fic on AO3 | art by Bonanza_Nuts | masterpost —

July 22nd If Tomorrow Never Comes, Then What Are We? Mechformers, Lord Chirayoju Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent, 17k, Explicit (Justice League Dark: Apokolips War (2020 movie)) With Darkseid’s third attempt at conquering Earth, Clark and Bruce must work together to save it and their loved ones. But when everything fails, when Bruce is imprisoned and Clark loses his powers, how far are they willing to go to save each other? Or in other words; Justice League Dark: Apokolips War, but from a Superbat perspective. fic on AO3 | art by Lord Chirayoju | masterpost —

July 23rd In for a Penny Orphean, blinkingkills Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent, 11k, Teen & Up Audiences (No Specific Continuity) ‘Bruce is doing something stupid, and we need you to save him.’ ‘Me? Clark Kent?’ If Bruce needed to be saved, Superman was a more logical choice. ‘He’s auctioning off a date with him for charity and we need you to win.’ — Or: Clark finally gets the full Bruce Wayne experience. fic on AO3 | art by blinkingkills | masterpost —

July 24th Be My Mirror (My Sword, My Shield) BatsAreFluffy, lovelastart Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent, 36k, Explicit (DC Extended Universe) ”“Six days”“ Nightwing shrugged. “We don’t know if each of them lasted the full 6 days, but on the seventh day after the abduction, the body is always found in Crime Alley.” ”“And on the seventh day he rested,“ Alfred murmured, rubbing the bridge of his nose. ”“That does not leave us a great deal of time.” Barry shifted a little, nervous. “So, um, have you guys ever - um, found one alive still?” Clark desperately wanted to hear a yes. Somewhere where his alter-ego had been stopped. He hoped that there had been places where murdering in cold blood, torture and desecration had been stopped. fic on AO3 | art by lovelastart | masterpost —

Week Two

July 25th Let Your Hopes Shape Your Future OuiBeebles, with-your-poncho-on Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent, Clark Kent/Lois Lane, 13k, Teen & Up Audiences (No Specific Continuity) The funeral is a week later. The church is sterile and nearly empty. Bruce sits next to Alfred in the front row. His eyes are fixed on his shoes the whole time. His eyes are dull and unfocused. The speakers, for there are so many, talk and talk and talk until he thinks about screaming for them to shut up. He doesn’t care what they have to say! Alfred always squeezes his hand when he feels that very strong thought and he knows he can’t do that to Alfred because he loved his parents too. The last one to speak is an old priest, his dad’s childhood one, he thinks. He wants to summon enough energy to look up and pay attention but the words about God’s love and kindness curdle the thoughts sour before he even manages it. God is cruel if one or more even exists. He thinks to himself that maybe if he were to meet one what he would do. Maybe he would shout at them until his voice was gone. Maybe he would fight them. He thinks he would make them weak though. That makes the most sense to him. If he were to make a god or more mortal then, they would be subject to the misery they created or, at the least, didn’t stop. fic on AO3 | art by with-your-poncho-on: post 1, post 2 | masterpost —

July 26th This is Not My Beautiful Wife Meduseld, sazzysavvy, architeuthis Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent, 16k, Explicit (No Specific Continuity) Bruce wakes up in a nice house in the suburbs next to the love of his life. Clearly, something nefarious is going on. fic on AO3 | art by sazzysavvy on AO3 | art by sazzysavvy on Tumblr| art by architeuthis | masterpost —

July 28th The Same Sky, Day and Night Atanih88, mashimero, with-your-poncho-on Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent, past Clark Kent/Lois Lane, 20k, Explicit (DC Extended Universe) Clark and Lois separate as the sun rises over Metropolis. Clark and Bruce find comfort in each other’s company as night settles over Gotham.

August 9th Yours & Mine susiecarter, sdiosb, Ms. 3 Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent, 51k, Explicit (DC Extended Universe) Post-JL 2017, Bruce and Clark are starting to figure each other out. Clark’s also starting to think he wants to get to know Bruce a lot better than either of them expected. And then, to help the dangerously depleted ranks of the Green Lanterns collect evidence against an intergalactic slave trader, they have to go undercover: Clark as the Kryptonian overlord who conquered Earth and has proven able to hold it against even the incursions of the New Gods of Apokolips … and the pride of his personal collection, a human warrior he subdued and trained himself. Which means Clark has to pretend he really is the nightmare Bruce once believed he would be, and he also has to keep it together in the face of leading a collared, naked Bruce around on a chain—when all he’s starting to realize he actually wants is to get on his knees for Bruce instead. fic on AO3 | art by sdiosb | art by Ms. 3 | masterpost —

[final-boy]

I cant get this idea put of my head but okay, imagine a SuperBat fic where, through magic or science or whatever, a version of Bruce and Clark get thrown into our usual universe EXCEPT these versions of them essentially come from a No Cape AU

So now we have a Clark and Bruce stuck in a dimension where they have to learn to navigate a world full of heroes and villains , meet these versions of family who have gone through so much shit, and come to terms with the fact that the versions of them here are two of the worlds best heroes

Theyd be stuck awhile as the League helps get them back home , so theyd get to meet all their friends in this weird, comic book ass world

Bonus Points if no cape! Bruce and Clark are already together and help our Clark and Bruce realize they got feelings for eachother 😙💕

[roleplayfinder]

Kinda need some inspiration and active RPs so I’m gonna try here lol. I’m 23 looking for DC roleplays! Bruhal, halbarry, bruharvey, superbat, and birdflash, oh and bonus points for 90s punk Konnor/Jason Todd. You must be over 19 and have discord, please.

What’s a Batman story you wish someone else would write for you instead of writing yourself??

Gotta tell you, I got super excited when I got this ask, because there are so many things!! That I would love to see happen!! That I’ll never get around to writing!! So uh, strap in because this is gonna be a big ol’ list :) I’m gonna organize these so that it starts with gen ideas and then switches to darker ones (otherwise, really in no particular order). Also, because it’s me, many of these are Dick-centric.

1. First up is a Batfam Hogwarts AU, but with the specifications that Dick is a Slytherin, Jason is a Ravenclaw, Tim is a Slytherin, and Damian is a Hufflepuff. Skalidra actually made an amazing post about this that I agree with so fucking much, and I want a fic that does this justice.

2. Batbros are actually blood bros. I know there are a couple of these already out there, but not the way I picture it in my head, so here you go: Bruce knows about Dick while the kid is growing up, visits the circus any time it’s in town, takes Dick out for ice cream & shit like that, but Dick thinks this is just some family friend his parents like him hanging out with. It’s not until Mary and John fall that Dick learns the truth about his parents. For Tim – Janet never really wanted a kid, so when she and Bruce sleep together (up to you to figure out why) and got pregnant, she was like “okay brucie as soon as this pops out you can keep it” which, once Tim was born, Bruce did. Jason can go so many ways, so up to you!

3. Transgender Dick!! Yes, these are already out there. Yes, I want so many more! Give me the struggle of coming to the realization while amongst Gotham’s high society. Give me extra supportive Bruce or a Bruce that just can’t wrap his head around the concept and absolutely fails to be in any way a good parent of a trans kid. Or take the extra step and give me a non-binary Dick!!! I don’t know if I’ve ever seen one of those, and as an enby individual, I really would love to.

4. Jason as a teacher. Do whatever the fuck you want with that, but I want to see Jason teaching literature. Still in the superhero world, no alternate world where Batman isn’t a thing. I want a Jason who’s been Robin and died and come back and been Red Hood and is a teacher.

5. I had a dream about Dick being a clone, and then an idea popped up behind it: In the Young Justice cartoon world, the Light makes another clone of Superman. But this time, the human DNA they used to stabilize the Kryptonian part isn’t Lex Luthor’s DNA, but Batman’s! That Superman-Batman clone is Dick. While Conner gets rescued by the YJ team, Dick (or whatever title CADMUS gave him, like how Conner was just called “The Superboy”) isn’t found, and is trained to fight against the team of young heroes as the Light’s weapon. Dick gets captured eventually and Bruce&Clark find out about their clone baby. Throw in some Superbat if you feel like it, or just Two Bros And A Baby. Either way, I would kill for this.

6. Ok you know how at one point or another Damian, Jason, and Cass were all members of the League of Assassins? Well, what if there was overlap? I want the three of them working for the League and knowing each other. I don’t know if this even works out at all but I just think this would be kinda cool, especially if it includes Bruce finding out about Damian or about Jason being alive and gaining a daughter along the way.

7. While we’re on the subject of League of Assassins, all four of the boys work for the League!! Do with this what you will, I merely present the concept to you.

8. Secret Agents. Just…just give me them as spies. Pls.

9. Dead Robins Club that ACTUALLY INCLUDES DICK BECAUSE Y’KNOW HE DIED. It’s a pet peeve of mine, when people write these kind of fics and include Tim and Steph (neither of which actually died) but not Dick, even though he did die for at least a couple minutes. Please stop ignoring Dick’s trauma guys, I beg of you. There’s one amazing fic between Jason, Damian, and Dick, and I want so many more of stuff like that.

10. Greeks/Roman Gods AU where Dick is the God of Death and king of the Underworld instead of the springtime god. There’s a really great jaydick fic out there that has this, but it’s abandoned, and I rally really want more of a Dick like this.

11. AU in which Bruce is the youngest member of the Justice League, and is still the badass leader he is in canon. No one in the League knows the truth, but it’s not like Bruce ever said I’m in my 20s or older, he just. Never mentioned he just graduated high school and is working on his accelerated bachelor’s degree.

12. A fic that addresses the fact that Dick has, in canon, been buried alive. I might one day write this, but I have a lot of projects that I do know I’m going to write, so this is wayyyyyyyyyyyy down the line, long enough that I’d be very happy to see someone write it instead. Bonus points if it’s a fic about Dick and Jason, and the fact that Dick killed Joker also comes up.

13. Tamaranean!Dick. And I actually have a whole word/plot for something like this that I’m never gonna write so if you wanna do this hmu I have THOUGHTS

Ok boys and girls and enbys we’re about to hit the dark shit so turn back if you don’t want to have to read it. You’ve been warned.

14. Ancient Rome AU in which Bruce is a senator and owns his robins as slaves (gladiator-wise and otherwise) who try to earn their freedom but Bruce likes using them too much (both for himself and in gaining control over others, like sending one of them to seduce somebody to gain leverage or steal something or what have you) and so he keeps changing what will gain them their freedom.

15. Auction fic where Dick is drugged and kidnapped and auctioned off to a bunch of villains. Yes, fics like this exist. Yes, I would like Many More.

16. Brusladick where Bruce has some Bad Thoughts about Dick but can’t bring himself to act on them, but he wouldn’t mind letting someone else do it, and who better than Slade Wilson, who absolutely wants to fuck Dick. So Bruce sets up a camera in the room and gets off to all the hard shit being done to Dick, but Slade breaks their agreement a little and tells Dick that Bruce is watching.

17. In an ABO universe, Dick is an omega. The world is pretty modern overall, of course there will always be some level of sexism but it’s not a large issue. But there’s this far-right terroristic-type group that thinks omegas are just good for ding as they’re told and being bred and have made it their mission to “fix” omegas who think they deserve equal rights, and they get ahold of Dick, sending a video to Bruce saying they’re return Dick when he’s better. For some reason Bruce and Co can’t find Dick for a long time, and by the time they do Dick’s severely traumatized and been conditioned into obedience and submission towards alphas.

18. In the Young Justice cartoon world, while Kaldur is undercover in season 2, an interaction with Deathstroke reveals something horrible about Nightwing’s past, and Kaldur has to act like hearing these graphic, awful things about his friend. After it’s all over, he goes to Dick and mentions Deathstroke saying something and Dick kind of shuts down and says like “How many people heard what he said?” There is a twitter thread between me and a friend on this very subject if you need inspiration ;)

19. Something based on this amazing art

20. Bruce is hella abusive. Dick lets himself be Bruce’s outlet so he won’t hurt the others. This, of course, comes to light. Yes, shit like this exists. But I pose you a question – is there ever too many? And has it been done by you yet?

21. Brainwashing. Just, give me brainwashing. Turned against your family, used and mocked by your enemy, kneeling “willingly” at your enemy’s feet. Bonus points for all kinds of abuse.

Well, that’s my list!! Go off and do great things for me! Thanks for the ask!!
