#fear toxin shenanigans

[002yb]

I just want Dick to softly hold Jason's face and kiss his checks

Despite Dick's best efforts to be gentle, Jason flinches - pulling back so violently that he hits the wall behind him. He feels like a fucking animal, wounded and cornered and violent in his desperation. While Dick tries not to spook him, Jason is already beyond that point. He's disturbed; he's scared.

Fucking fear toxins - fuck.

But Dick is persistent and patient, calling out to Jason in a voice that soothes while everything else seems to fall apart.

There's a cackle in the distance that echoes off of alley walls, the drag of metal on concrete that draws chills down his spine. Jason swallows thickly and tells himself it's not real (only it was; it is).

A shadow shifts and something horrid gets caught in his throat - panicked and hurt and young. It tears violently from his chest when Dick grabs hold of him, a hand around the back of Jason's neck to draw him close, fingers grazing a still-tender scar and Jason can't even scream because he's bleeding out again, cut at the throat and left to die as the world burns red around him.

The antidote is administered efficiently despite how Jason thrashes and fights. He thinks Dick might apologize for being rough with him, but it's Dick who will leave with all the bruises Jason gives him. Even still, Dick holds him. Grunting when Jason pounds at his back, hissing when Jason scratches his nails into the weave of Nightwing's costume. Holding firm until Jason yields, weak in Dick's hold because all of the adrenaline falls away and leaves Jason raw.

'Get the fuck off of me,' Jason should say, but his body still trembles and Dick still keeps him tucked away in the cradle of his arms, his chin rested over Jason's head and keeping him small like he hasn't been in too long. It feels safe; it makes Jason's eyes burn with frustration and resentment and with hope he doesn't want.

That sound from before tries to escape him again when Dick pulls away. Jason bites it back, jaw clenched and teeth aching as he swallows down his own vulnerability. He's given away too much; no more.

But then Dick's hands are holding Jason on either side of his face, cupping his jaw and pressed to his cheeks. His thumbs stroke gently beneath Jason's eyes and Jason feels dazed by the tender affection.

When he searches Dick's expression, Jason sees a lingering concern. Dick got Jason the antidote though - they both know that Jason is fine, his hurt pride aside. Despite this, Dick wipes away tear tracks and speaks to Jason in a low and steady voice, a hush of sound to help bring Jason down. Foreheads pressed together, so close that their lashes give one another butterfly kisses as they flutter close.

And Jason still shakes. Fine tremors that wrack his body and wrecks the rest of him. A part of him wants to push Dick away or start a fight; he reaches up and holds onto Dick's wrists, instead.

There's blood on Jason's hands. It smears over the black and blue of Dick's suit - staining him, tainting him. Marred. Jason lets go in an instant, shrinking away when he realizes.

Only Dick won’t have that. He takes Jason's hands and rests them along the cut of Dick's jaw - held in a way that lets Jason feel Dick's pulse and the steady breaths he takes. Dick brushes his fingers over Jason's split knuckles and the points of contact bring Jason down; breathing even, heart calm.

"Why didn't it get to you?" Jason asks, his hands dropping from Dick's face to Dick's collarbone, smearing Jason's blood across him in a haunting way. Jason takes his hands back, anxiously reaching up to his own neck, just to be certain that he isn't dying - isn't dead.

(He looks at Dick, too. A careful inspection. Beneath the blood is a bruise along his jaw and Jason winces at how it swells).

"Exposure, maybe." Dick says. Reasonable as that sounds, Jason can't shake that it's a lie. Because Dick's eyes are dilated and though he tries to fight it, he's shaking. When Jason catches his gaze, Dick's smile is crooked - aware that he's been caught out. The bastard is still dosed. Before Jason can ask a question they both know the answer to, Dick assures him, "It burns out of my system faster than you guys."

This, Jason believes. Even still, he feels miserable that Dick would put Jason first. They're not anything to each other, not really. Dick should have left Jason to his demons; it's what Jason deserves.

When Jason insists on getting Dick an antidote of his own, Dick refuses him. Hand wrapping tight around Jason's wrist - a bruising grip.

"Don't-" Dick pleads with him and Jason flushes because Dick lays his fears out bare for Jason to see; vulnerable and consuming. "Just...stay. Don't go anywhere, okay?"

Not again.

Please.

@godblooded said ❝ hey, we don’t need to do this. ❞

the city is a smear of black and red; noise and light and shadow. the bricks seem to ooze blackness that runs down every wall and seeps into the gutter with the rain. everything blurs together in a slow motion haze and, for a moment, the stillness of it all brings me some peace. i can almost breathe again.

and then suddenly tires squeal over wet pavement. a woman screams somewhere nearby. sirens in the distance are growing louder by the second. i can’t bear the noise of it. i can’t. fear lances through my gut with every sound and my heart is pounding out of my chest. i’m half blind with fear and rage and the acid melt of colors dripping in my eyes. 

in the middle of that swirl of color is a smear of black that i somehow recognize. a voice that sounds familiar. the shape and sound vibrate and multiply and juxtapose and swell, swell, swell until i can’t make sense of it anymore. i roar and lunge toward it. i want to tear it out of existence so i don’t have to look at it any longer.

i miss. i catch myself and slide across wet-slick pavement on all fours like an animal. i am an animal. animal, animal, animal. my tail lashes, collides with something metal. i see the black shape again and lunge, swiping with my claws until they connect with something. metal, kevlar, flesh. i snap my jaws toward it.

i want blood.

stranger things --- not accepting

So Gotham is in New Jersey right?

New Jersey recently (last year or this year iirc) decriminalized weed. There’s dispensaries popping up everywhere.

Imagine the batfams reactions to that.

Like I imagine there’s some of them who’ve never even tried it before due to it being illegal suddenly being all ‘well I was curious’ and getting wayyyyy too high leading to shenanigans with the rest of the family, and maybe even rogues or civilians.

(Not to mention Gotham would have some crazy ass strains)

Oh boy gotham would have some WILD strains. You have to be careful because some have microdoses of Joker toxin and scarecrow fear gas in the shit. There also are some like genuinely crazy strains because Poison Ivy has massively profitable dispensaries because she can very easily selectively breed cannibus.

Written in the Stars (Jonathan Crane/OC)

Pairing: Jonathan Crane/OC

Summary: Despite what many may think, Jonathan Crane does in fact have a soul mark – he’s just not particularly thrilled about it. (Soulmates AU where a persons first words to you are written somewhere on your body) 

Warnings: Awkward shenanigans, smut

Jonathan Crane is seven years old when his soul mark appears. He’s huddled under a pew, locked in the old abandoned church by his grandmother for a sin he doesn’t remember doing. A sharp burning pain erupts on his forearm, different from the bruising lashes that decorate his back. He holds his arm up to the dim moonlight streaming in through the dirty window and tries to make out the words. 

Whatever he thought his soul mark would say, is no where close to what it actually says. 

…

Most people that know Jonathan Crane, also assume that he doesn’t have a soul mark. He’s bitter and mean and not at all what people look for in a soulmate. Despite these perceived flaws, he does have one. 

A soulmate that is. Somewhere out there and he dreads ever having to meet them. 

He’s never been very lucky, though. 

…

Jonathan is exhausted, injured, and coming down off of his own fear toxin. His hideout is on the other side of town, too far away to get there right now, so he seeks the first open establishment he can find. 

“Hi, welcome to Rats-O-Cheese, the pizza-play restaurant for kids. My name is Y/N-Mouse, what can I get for you?” Is the disinterested monologue that greets him when he enters the building. On his forearm the words he’s been steadfastly ignoring all his life burns. 

Fuck. 

Now, Jonathan is not actually sure what one is supposed to do with a soulmate. Probably not kidnap them, but that’s what he’s done. 

He glances over at the tied up, and very irate, waitress and tries to figure out his next steps. He winces when her muffled shrieks interrupt his train of thought. Despite the gag, she’s still hell bent on chewing him out. 

God, he’s exhausted. 

…

Jonathan is in high school when the restaurant chain Rats-O-Cheese opens up, advertising itself as a fantastical arcade restaurant for children. 

He spends the next several weeks trying to erase his soul mark out of embarrassment. 

…

“I’m going to take off the gag. You can scream as loud as you like, no one will hear you,” Jonathan informs his soulmate, and then adds under his breath, “for my ears’ sake, don’t scream.” 

“What the fuck is your problem?!” She snarls at him as soon as her mouth is free. 

He considers that question and notes to himself that he actually has a lot problems. 

Y/N, on the other hand, has a fairly average life. She’s an only child in a two parent, middle class household. She’s not top of her class, not bottom either, in both high school and college. Just average. 

Her near-neurotic obsession with being normal probably has something to do with her soul mark words. 

“If you fight or scream, I’m going to inject you with this drug.” 

Who the fuck says that to someone?

It sort of tracks that she’d end up with a psychopath for a soulmate, and not a very successful one at that if his injured, disheveled state is anything to go by. 

“So, like, what’s your thing?” She ends up asking after watching him putter around his grungy little hideout for a while. 

He pauses and looks over at her with a cocked eyebrow, “My thing?”

She nods, “Yeah, you know, your villain thing. All the weirdos in this city have one. Like that guy with the riddles!” 

Psycho-soulmate actually rolls his eyes at her and snarks, “Please don’t compare me to the likes of Edward Nygma and his ridiculous neurosis.” 

Y/N doesn’t really think this man has any room to be throwing stones, but she keeps that to herself. 

…

Statistics say that a majority of people meet their soulmates during their college years. It’s something the general population is obsessed with – making movies, music, and art about the phenomenon since the dawn of time. Jonathan, in juxtaposition, isn’t interested. In fact, he would prefer to never meet them. 

He’s never needed anyone but himself and he doesn’t see that changing anytime soon. Especially considering the, frankly, ridiculous words that are on his forearm. 

In what universe would he ever step foot into a Rats-O-Cheese?

…

Psycho-soulmate determines after several hours tied up, that she’s no longer a flight risk and unties her. He does give her a stern look though, and tells her, “There’s no where you would run that I couldn’t find you.” 

“Yeah, yeah, don’t run – got it.” 

She uses her newfound freedom to wander about his weird warehouse/hideout. There’s a very disturbing lone medical examination table with metal restraints that she edges around. Apart from the few pieces of actual furniture (a couch and a futon) it looks like a stereotypical horror movie science lab. 

She approaches a mannequin that’s dressed in a frayed suit and that has a burlap sack-mask over its head. Ohhh, so this is his thing, creepy scarecrow. 

She remarks as much out loud and Psycho-soulmate makes a loud clattering noise behind her, dropping whatever he was doing in surprise. 

“It’s for science!” He snarls, his ears turning pink in embarrassment. 

“Yeahhhh, okay.” 

Then she turns back around to look at him, “By the way, what’s your name? I’ve just been calling you ‘Psycho-soulmate’ in my head this whole time.” 

He gives her a dry look for that remark and introduces himself. Man, that name sounds awfully familiar. 

Then it hits her, “Oh! You’re the guy that broke everyone out of Arkham!” 

“Well, yes, but it was a dire set of circumstances.” 

He’s busied himself with his chemistry set again and as Y/N looks more closely at him, she notes that he’s very handsome – the kind of face that would sell well in a boyband line up. He’s also lithe in way that reveals how much time he spends hunched over his experiments. She has to wonder how a guy like that ends up as Gotham’s latest super villain. 

He sighs loudly and sets down the beaker he was currently fussing over, “I can feel you staring at me. Just ask your inane questions.” 

“No questions, just bored is all.” 

Jonathan’s eyes roll heavenward, as if he’s praying for the irritation to end. Well, hey, he’s the one who kidnapped her, he gets to live with those consequences. 

…

Jonathan is, surprisingly, a gentleman and offers her the futon to sleep on while he takes the couch. He only has a few changes of clothes here so she ends up sleeping in one of his button down shirts. She waits until his back is turned before she brings the collar up to her nose and inhales his delicious, masculine scent. 

She has no idea what cologne he uses but goddamn does she love it. 

A sort of pattern settles over them after a few days there. Jonathan will make the trek in the early hours of the morning to get them both breakfast, waking Y/N up with the clanging of the door when he returns. 

Once they’ve eaten, he immediately dives into his experiments and leaving Y/N to her own devices. All he has to do in this place is read his vast array of medical textbooks and journals, so that’s what she does. 

After nearly a week of this, she finally snaps, “When can we fucking leave?”

“Language,” Jonathan remarks, carefully finishing his task of measuring out chemicals before turning his attention to her, “Why would we leave?”

“Uh, because this isn’t an actual livable place and there’s nothing to do?” 

“Of course I have a child for a soulmate,” he grumbles before getting up, “We won’t be leaving. But, I’ll see if I can procure more suitable entertainment for you.” 

Honestly, that’s better than nothing. 

And she does not squeal in delight at the stack of romance novels he returns with the following morning, she’s just excited to be able to read something that isn’t about psychology. 

…

The phenomenon of soulmates is a fascinating one, Jonathan notes. One he’d be more than interested in studying if his research into fear wasn’t so pressing. 

Hell, even Edward Nygma has a soulmate–Julian Day. 

Jonathan’s own soulmate is interesting to say the least. She’s annoying and childish and loud, the opposite of himself in every way possible. 

She might be growing on him. 

He has a bit of an accident while mixing up a new batch of fear toxin. In those moments, he found himself far more concerned for Y/N than himself. Worried that he may have injured her by mistake. 

He hates it. 

He’s never wanted a soulmate and certainly never the feelings that come along with one. 

If anything were to ever happen to her, he would burn the entire world to the ground. He can no longer imagine his life without her in it and it’s driving him insane. 

…

It’s on a particularly quiet night, months into Y/N’s captivity, that Jonathan breaks out his stash of very expensive whiskey. He’s never been one to drink, but he finds that he’s agreeing with Y/N, he’s so bored lately. 

The flush of alcohol looks pretty on her face in the warm, dim light of the warehouse. He can almost pretend that they’re out on a date, enjoying each other’s company like normal people. 

It’s her that kisses him first, though. 

Her lips are soft and she tastes like the whiskey they’re drinking and he can’t seem to get enough. The euphoric feeling that comes over him is even better than his fear toxin, he thinks. He wraps an arm around her waist, tugging her closer and onto his lap where she fits so perfectly that it’s no wonder the universe chose her for him. 

She breaks away from the kiss, peppering his jaw and neck with follow up ones, “God, you’re such a freak, but I really, really like you.” 

The admission makes him more feral, gripping her impossibly closer and yanking at her clothes. He needs her in a way that he’s never needed anyone before. He feels like he might die if he doesn’t get her naked. 

She helps him remove her top, her breasts already bare as she’s forgone wearing a bra. He groans and buries his face between them, licking and kissing up her sternum back to those addicting lips. Her hips are grinding down onto him, lining up her core with his erection with unerring accuracy. Even through the layers of their clothes, he can feel how wet she is, how warm he knows she’ll be. 

He pushes her down onto the cushions of the couch, slotting himself between her legs and yanking at the button of her jeans. Her hips lift helpfully, allowing his hand to slip them down her thighs. 

He was never a very sexual being, always preferring the company of books rather than people, but he can see in this moment what he’s been missing all these years. There’s something so electrifying about touching and being touched by another person, something that sends delightful shivers all up and down his spine. 

He wants to own her entirely, and for her to do the same to him. 

Her deft fingers slip down his torso towards his groin, cupping his cock in her hand sweetly. He groans and the feel and his hips stutter down to grind against her palm. 

“Can I see?” She asks him, and it hits him in that moment that she never does anything without confirming his consent. He’s never had anyone do that for him before, his body always being the subject of either outright abuse or covetous leers. He helps her open his pants, letting those pretty fingers of hers slip past the hem to wrap around him. 

His eyes roll back as she grips him firmly, pumping his cock better than he’s ever done himself. 

Once he gains some coherency back, he makes quick work of removing her pants and underwear entirely. 

She’s bare before him, her most intimate place glistening and beckoning him forward. He’s never once had the desire nor fantasized about going down on a woman before, but he can’t stop himself from getting a taste. He runs his tongue between her lips, gathering the slick from her hole and dragging it up to her clit. 

He groans against her as the flavor registers, he already knows he’s never going to get enough of this, of her. Her essence is all he’s ever going to think about from now to the end of time. 

Her fingers bury themselves into his hair, tugging and grasping as he devours her. His name is being chanted, spurring him on to torture that little bud at the top of her sex. 

He can literally taste her orgasm as it gushes out of her, coating his lips and chin and it about makes him finish himself. 

Sitting up, he fists himself, hurrying to line himself up with her opening. Still coming down from her high, she mewls as he sinks into her, the walls of her cunt sucking him in as if it’s welcoming him home. He doesn’t think he ever wants to part from her, doesn’t ever want to draw his cock away from her. He pushes himself as deep as possible before drawing back and pushing back in. 

Her arms wrap around his shoulders, tugging him down so that their foreheads press. Somehow this is far more intimate that literally being inside of her and it makes him flush with how flustered it makes him. 

He doesn’t last long but he forgets to be embarrassed about it because he’s never felt so good in his life. He never wants this feeling to end.

He settles beside her, keeping himself firmly tucked into her tight heat. 

On her ribs, right beneath her heart, are his words and proof that they were meant for each other.

COFFEE: PG.04 — Batfamily Shenanigans

COFFEE: Tim Drake x gn!reader

SYNOPSIS: Tim meets a barista that gives him what he needed most — a large coffee with way to many shots of espresso. Though what happens when just a single action changes the other’s life, forever?

TW: brief mentions of gunshots, bullying (let me know if I misread anything)

coffee master list || prev. || next

MONDAY, MARCH 7 2023 — 11:01 PM

IT WAS ANOTHER night on your shift. Usually things would be pretty boring but this past week was quite enjoyable for you - giving coffee to Tim, interacting with the Wayne family online, meeting the Wayne brothers in real life, and catching up with your old friend and coworker.

But of course, life never lets you enjoy things for long until bashing your head unwillingly into negativity. Another reason why you felt like you were life’s least favorite.

It didn’t take long for you to react to the sound of window glass shattering, crouching behind the counter you worked at.

Trying to keep your heavy breaths quiet, you listen to the heavy footsteps coming from the supposed attacker and the horrified gasps and scrambling of the customers you had served.

Covering your mouth with your hands, you slowly lift your head up to look at the shiny reflection of the coffee machine you had polished just last night.

‘Thank you, past me.’

In the reflection you saw a silhouette of a scraggly hat which made your mind immediately go to one villain in particular - Scarecrow.

That’s when it finally processed in your mind - ‘He’s gonna fill this place up with fear gas.’

“Scarecrows active again,” Oracle announced over comms, “Just got word that he’s attacking your favorite Café.”

“Ah shit,” Spoiler cursed, “Isn’t he supposed to wait for Halloween? It’s almost the end of March.”

“Not all villains are seasonal, dumbass,” Robin scoffs.

“Language Robin,” Batman scolds.

“Alright, tracking all of your coordinates and . . . Red, you’re closest to the café,” Oracle announced, “I’m sending you directions right now.”

“Robin or Hood?” the bucket man asked, sounds of gun shots in the background.

“Robin.”

“On it.”

The sound of a grappling hook and wind was heard over comms before immediately quieting.

Wind was blowing in Red Robin’s hair and howling in his ears, as he landed on a nearby rooftop observing the small corner café.

Observing the surrounding area he sees that there were only a few goons outside of the café but there was a likelihood of more to be inside with Scarecrow himself.

Cursing as he hears maniacal laughter coming from inside he immediately leaps down, drop kicking a goon and soon swiftly taking out the others as well.

TIMESKIP (shhh, I’m saving you all from a cringe fight scene)

After taking care of Scarecrow, Spoiler had arrived and helped some of the victims of the fear gas.

Red Robin on the other hand was checking around for some others behind the counter and it didn’t take long for his eyes to land on you.

The moment you inhaled Scarecrows toxin, you could no longer see your surroundings properly. It was no longer the warm and cozy café around you, it was the middle school you used to go to back in New York and suddenly, you were just a kid.

Old faces of your bullies were surrounding you, laughing and calling you names causing your breathing become shallow.

You didn’t know what hurt worse, the bullies, or what they used to be; best friends who you simply shared a little bit about yourself and they all recoiled in disgust.

They all surrounded you just like how they used to, throwing trash your way, telling you all your intrusive thoughts about yourself were right.

“Undeserving.”

“Worthless.”

“Freak.”

“Hey- you okay?”

Wait, that can’t be right.

Slowly, the image of the your bullies slowly faded away and the only blur were the tears clouding your vision.

The only thing you make out was the rough outline of the shined coffee machine, the color of your pants, and a bit of- red, black, and yellow?

Looking up, you see the symbol of a red bird against the red of the figures chest automatically making you think of one vigilante in particular - Red Robin.

SPECIAL NOTE: apologies for not posting this sooner, my life kinda had a domino effect and not in a good way.

N e ways, I hope you all have a good rest of your day/night and make sure to drink water and take care of yourselves! <33

Two Sides of the Coin (You Can't Have One Without the Other)

read it on AO3 at https://ift.tt/ZBbqwgH by Nation_Ustria Nightwing has to bite back a laugh. “Gotham is a no-fly zone for more than just the JL, Supes. But, from what Blud knows, chances are that whatever you’ve heard is probably true.” Superman pales, which is anything but unexpected. Pretty much all of Gotham tends to be horrifying to Outsiders, as Nightwing is well aware. The question here is which rumors Superman decided were concerning enough to actually look into, the answer to which could be literally anything from the pollution levels to the regularity of the city-wide Fear Toxin gas attacks. Or something entirely outside of the usual spectrum of Things That Outsiders Need To Stop Freaking Out About, Nightwing discovers when Superman blurts, “But the Waynes aren’t actually possessed, right?” …Ah. Well, crap.   Or, in Gotham, it’s been common knowledge since the very beginning that the Waynes are playing host to the parasitic Bats, who protect Gotham and its people from threats both internal and external in turn. There’s nothing anyone can do about it now, even if they wanted to. (That’s... not actually what’s happening, but nobody needs to know that. The Batfam is too committed to the bit to pull out now.)

Anyways

More fear toxin shenanigans

Wouldn’t it be so cool if you could see the whole image through a super cool LINK

[talisverse]

Jonathan works as a dentist in Arkham Asylum and conducts (fear toxin) experiments on his patients. He also has an “assistant” which is his white raven named Cuspid.

Edward was an average radio show host but has moved up to game show host for his riddler shenanigans. His show is called “Riddle me this”.

Jervis, despite being wealthy, chooses to live in an abandoned tea house where he can live out his fantasies. This is usually aided by the use of natural hallucinogens like mushrooms and mad honey.

[error4343]

After all those years of not having references, it's finally here... Let me present to you:

Fanon Skyvik timeline + bunch of my personal headcanons for their relationships!

To see actual timeline - click on image.

Before diving deeper: This timeline isn’t very well thought out and mostly based on headcanons, so there can and likely is huge divergence from the canonical timeline!

Pre-teen years

Viktor’s parents preferred him to play on the highest levels of Zaun so he wouldn't breathe Antresole's toxins. That's how he met Sky.

Nothing special happened in this period of time. Just two kids messing around, dreaming of becoming the greatest scientists of all Runeterra. 

Their senior-assistant dynamic was firstly established, but not quite reinforced.

From early years Sky became protective over her friend. Viktor was (and reminds) not very happy about it, but in the harshness of Undercity protection was necessary.

Early puberty

Oh boy here we go, first romantic shenanigans. 

It was time when Sky understood that she likes her friend not only as friend. It wasn't a serious romantic interest, more like “Omg he’s so cute”.

BUT BACK THERE IT WASN’T ONE SIDED!

Anyway, because of Sky’s shyness and Viktor’s fear to ruin their friendship, they never confessed their feelings to each other. 

It was time when they both slowly, but steadily came to realize they’re not only into the opposite gender.

Teens

The most bitter-sweet moment in the timeline. 

On one hand, those years were a peak for their friendship: both kinda lost their romantic interest, kept being supportive pals to each other and started to try to date someone.

Viktor even came up with the idea to set up their workshop so they can start to make money. So they did and it was a success.

On other hand: shit started to go down between Zaun and Piltover and also with their parents' health. 

Even though they never wanted to leave their hometown, Viktor started to think if he could be more useful if somehow he gets into Academia, but for the time it was impossible due to ban of zaunits (it’s a pure hc).

Bridge rebellion & Aftermath 

Suppression of Bridge’s rebellion was so horrifying, that the Council decided to lift zaunit’s ban in order to soften the edges. At the same time, due to the failure of the rebellion, inner conflicts started (hc: which led to a split between Silco and Vander). 

But not only this: Viktor’s parents died due to smoke poisoning and Sky mother’s health began to worsen drastically. 

Under the influence of despair from the failure of the uprising, the death of his parents and, in principle, the hopeless situation in Zaun, Vitya dares to leave the city and take advantage of the opportunity to enter the Academy.

During all of that stuff, both try to hold together their friendship and support each other, but despair ends up winning over Viktor.

Some time apart

Both are going through some shit: Sky - though struggles with life, Viktor - though nationalist intolerance and general struggles with adapting to Piltover.

Sky’s mom didn’t make it. 

After 1-2 hard work in the Academy, Viktor proved himself as worthy for the dean assistant position, and, thanks to that, was able to help Sky get to the Academy too. 

Act I

Even after reunion, relationships between those two never would be the same as it was in Zaun. But it would be more apparent in Act II.

At the same time, Sky’s romantic interest reincarnates, but this time it’s more mature and serious.

It was a time when Sky met Jayce! 

Funny thingy: due to gap in age and education, Viktor became thesis supervisor of Sky (I’m sure it’s not one of the reasons why they never got so close again).

Act II

Вon't have headcanons for this part of their lives for obvious reasons, but keep the homemade reference anyway!

tim drake angst fic ideas ive been chewing on

due to scifi shenanigans tim can't hide his emotions one day and gets Really Really Sad when damian and jason insult him and they, who are used to tim taking everything stoically, don't know what to do with that

he gets hit with a version of scarecrow fear toxin where he speaks out loud while he's having his vision of jason & damian torturing him to death while bruce & dick watch, and in the real world the batfam slowly realizes exactly what he's seeing and that it's directly their fault

opposite of fear toxin where tim sees the one thing he wants more than anything else in the world, mirror of erised style, and it's the whole family loving and accepting him, including jason and damian. jason and damien being Wrecked when they learn this

tim & jason go on a Mission together for reasons and jason is super mean to tim the whole time and they end up in a scenario where they think they're about 2 die and tim confesses everything about how much jason as robin meant to him and how hard he tried to live up to that and how bad it Destroyed him when jason tried to kill him over and over and over again

tim & jason go on a Mission together for reasons and jason is trying to patch things up bc now that the pit madness has passed and he's had some time to reflect on things he recognizes he shouldn't have tried to kill tim. but tim shuts jason down every time

TRIGGER WARNING // tim being distant from bruce & dick while jason & damian are hella mean to him at every opportunity, so he feels like no one wants or needs him around, add to that the stress of being red robin AND ceo of wayne industries and it's all way too much for him and he attempts an overdose. jason breaks into his apartment and finds him unconscious and brings him back to the batcave and when he wakes up they're all interrogating him about being poisoned and he has to tell them that he did it on purpose

TRIGGER WARNING AGAIN // similar situation except this time he's highly premeditative about it, planning it out, putting affairs in order, and he tells them he's moving but they look into it and find out he's not planning on moving anywhere so they confront him

listen

im very sad

mostly... jason taking it like a knife to the gut when he realizes how badly it's actually affected tim that jason ever thought he deserved to die. also damien. same for dick and bruce but without the history of direct murder attempts.

am I ever going to write any of these? maybe. probably not. I don't know. if you ever write anything like this or if you know a fic like this Tag Me, reply, reblog, dm me, just send it my way although if it's a popular tim drake angst fic I may have already read it

[stealingyourbones]

Tim Drake finds a suspicious thermos full of weird green goo at WE and brings it to the cave run some tests on it. He finds that the green goop contains a cocktail of many of:

- The elements vital to fear toxin, several of the identifiable elements from the Lazarus pits

- One of the less-crucial ingredients from Joker Venom

- A natural poison in a potency that would make Talia faint

The liquid also contains a number of elements that the Bat Computer can't identify and a weird amount of caffeine and some non-harmful but very confusing ingredients. Tim is now panicking at how this doom liquid got into WE and how it even came to be. He finds out a few days later, when he sees one of his employees with a very similar thermos. Jazz Fenton, a recent hire in the HR department. He mentally goes over what he knows about her; Kind, sweet, recently moved to Gotham, great at her job, clean background check. He's about to go up to her and ask about where she got that thermos when she lifts up the thermos, twists off the cap and. Drinks. It. Tim is trying to get his bearings when Jazz sees him staring and worriedly asks if he's alright. If he's alright. He asks what's in the thermos and she tells him, "Oh, it's this homemade energy drink. Nothing else wakes me up quite like it. Kind of an acquired taste, though." Tim just nods and goes to his desk, a little catatonic, and does a much deeper dive into Jazz's background.

Basically: Jazz has an ectoplasm-based energy drink made with some ghost plants from Sam's greenhouse, and the only reason she doesn't die from drinking it is that she's very liminal. Tim finds a Jazz's misplaced thermos and freak out because a normal human would drop dead just from looking at this liquid wrong. Shenanigans ensue. Jazz is just annoyed that she lost a thermos because she doesn't quite comprehend just how deadly her "energy drink" is.
