#death’s dance

[strong-with-the-sarcasm]

What're your thoughts on the Deaths Dance ship?

Is that Cass/Danny? I feel like that’s Cass/Danny.

I thought their ship name was Dead Silent? But I like Deaths Dance, maybe even more than Dead Silent. Hmm. Is this like the whole Anger Management/Hardcover thing with Jazz/Jason? Because then I 100% am down for a change.

Cass is a hard Bat to write for me personally, so a Deaths Dance pairing by me would be rare. I really enjoy some other works though in the ship, which I already have one or two in my upcoming rec list 2.

For me personally?

They can be either the best of partners, the strongest Allies… or Cass could be the end to Rogue!Danny. There’s something about her that screams ghostly to me in the context of Phantom Lore (Liminal fanons included). I also think that if anyone can understand Danny’s Core-deep desire to protect, to never become his own worst enemy it would be Cass. Afterall, her moral is stronger than Batman. Far as I know, Black Bat killed once (1) and swore to never do so again. There’s an alternate timeline where Batman kills Joker and never stops. Does that ever happen with Cass? Who knows, but I doubt it.

(Jason supposedly preferred that version of Batman)

My favorite Deaths Dance/Dead Silent fic I’ve read (so far) would have to be Full Time Hero, Full Time Disaster by halfagone.

Thanks for the question Nonny!

The Rehabilitation of Death

Chapter 17: Drunken Gods

On this day, The Lamb declares a holy day. For a wedding, for a feast, and for a festival to celebrate the grand harvest.

Despite his initial reservations (and after a particularly horrid nightmare) Narinder decides to attend, if just to please the Lamb well enough that they'd leave him well enough alone after. That's the only reason, surely.

With followers intoxicated, the cult becomes a ground of wild party, and Gods are not immune to the temptation of overindulgence.

There's music, fighting, flirting, more fighting. There are shenanigans all evening; including but not limited to: uncomfortable socialization, reminiscing on one's past, impulsive decisions of the close-proximity sort, hide-and-seek games, and sparring with drunken, uncontrollable bloodlust that may or may not lead to a near-mental snap with eldritch power when you remember something you weren't supposed to.
