Bio!Dad Jason and Bio!Mom Jazz (With Oc!Kid or Kid!Danny)

I really, really wanna write a bio!dad Jason story but I should really finish the Twins au first. So I'm gonna be very brief with it before I get sucked into a ramble (it didnt work, I rambled.)

It's a little out of left field due to how much an AU it gets but like hear me out.

Bio!dad Jason (who finished High School and starts going to community college in Gotham)

Bio!mom Jazz (whose going to a fancy college in Gotham for psychology)

They talk, click with each other, date, sleep with each other. Etc. But due to Jason's night life, and Jazz wanting to pretend nothing was weird about Jason (she wants something normal) they break up not to long after. She returns back to Amity Park for summer and finds out she's pregnant, tries to call Jason but his phones been disconnected. Some intense Red Hood things went down and he had to put himself into hiding. He thought he'll see her again for the next school year but she never came back.

(Due to Jason having been dead and Jazz being exposed to ectoplasm all her life they both kinda seek each other out in the city)

Or they meet in High School, before Jason dies, due to an exchange program. They meet, find things in common, debate over Jane Austin works, fall for each other as their frists, and be dumb kids in a big city one night when Jazz tells him she has to go back to Amity soon (aka going out, drink a few drinks, slept with each other)

(Due to Jazz exposure to ectoplasm and something in Jason's bloodline (before death) that let him come back from the dead they were both drawn to each other in ways they couldn't explain.)

She goes home, they keep in contact for a few weeks before it suddenly stops. Jazz finds out she pregnant not long after, she didnt think she was pregnant for a while due to cycle always being off due to ectoplasm exposure. Tries to contact Jason but no luck. During her pregnancy she tries a more few times but when news announced Jason Todd Wayne's death she is hurt and devastated (she knows Jason's wishes, they spoke about maybe a future one night cuddled together after reading books, to be a better man than his birth father ever was if he had kids). She tries getting into contact with Bruce but due to his own grief he refuses to speak with her until she gets a cease and desist.

She gives birth to their kid. And sends one last update, she's been using his old email address as a diary/emotional support for her grief, telling Jason about their kid. How much they look like him. How she wishes he'd be there to see them grow up. She finishes high school even while pregnant (if anyone can do it, it's Jazz) and goes to a college for psychology while taking care of her kid. (She tries not to leave her kid with her parents for too long, she loves them but she knows how they are)

Few years later, Jazz and her kid return to Gotham under fake names, hiding from her parents. Due to both Jason and Jazz's unique blood work their kid is very... ghostly so to speak and Jazz had found her parents trying to experiment on her kid after they saw them using ghost powers. Needless to say she got them out and ran. Jason has no clue they're in the city until he saves them one night from a mugging... and that same phantom call of otherworldly hits them and their kid hard.

Now as for Danny in this, he could be the cool uncle that's been teaching his nephew/niece how to control their powers, also helped them escape from Jack and Maddie and is keeping them off Jazz and her kids heels. And he totally punches Jason when he meets the guy who got his sister pregnant and ghosted her.

OR

DANNY IS THEIR KID. Either one works. :]

Danny being Jason's son, Danny being Jazz's son! If we go this route we can have Sam and Tucker keeping the elder Fentons off their tail cause Jazz tutored them in exchange for babysitting Danny, whom they both liked cause he was a funny kid and saw his powers a few times. (Sam always fighting for peoples/animal rights against discrimination and Tucker emotionally seeing Danny as his nephew and both were angry that the Fentons tried to hurt this kid for being partly Ghostly)

Jason finding out about the kid being ghostly and about Jazz trying to contact him after finally logging into his old email (he's pissed at Bruce when he finds out everything), Bruce FINDING OUT he's got a grandson and missed out on being a granddad for so long due to him not wanting face the person who made Jason smile so much before his death, Dick and Danny being punny with each other, Danny asking Tim about the stars cause he's been to space before and asking if he could teach him how to skateboard (he also tries to steal Tim’s teenage year clothes cause I feel like his and Danny’s taste are very close out of them all), Damian and Danny bonding over Cujo who followed Jazz and him from Amity Park! (Damian totally does the, "I've had Danny for a few hours, if anything happens to him I'll end everyone in this room. Then myself." After a few hours) Little Danny bonding with Alfred at every chance! Danny taking naps with Cass and trying to copy her silent movements! Having fun with Steph! Bonding with Duke for being the only super powered batfam!

.... then Vlad comes looking for Jazz and Danny/her kid cause Jack and Maddie told him about what happened and he has plans to take the young halfa and raise him as his evil heir. Cause you know, he's an old fruitloop that wants an heir just like him.. the Batfam won't be happy about that though.

okay well.

last week i submitted the form requesting a leave of absence from the phd program. this week i'm in toronto to invigilate a final exam as one of my last TA tasks for the term. i took the train this morning, returned all the u of t library books i had languishing, and stopped to pick up tickets for the shuttle i need to take bright & early tomorrow morning (exam's from 9h-12h).

i'm a little bit (like 2%) sad, but mostly relieved. i haven't gotten the official okay for the loa yet, but i'm not sure why they would say no. i'm operating on the assumption that it'll be approved and i'll have 12 months to get over the academic hangover i've had for i think that past 4 years. once i have the official answer from sgs i'm going to send an email out to my committee.

this is going to be a time to rest and breathe and not feel guilty about it. this is going to be a time to reconnect with myself and my interests. this is going to be a time to evaluate what i want and how/if i want to move forward.* this is going to be a time to get a 9-5 job with no major intellectual demands. this is going to be a time to improve my financial situation. i don't have a job lined up yet and i'm not entirely sure what it will be, but i can't worry about that until these TA contracts are wrapped up.

now i'm sat in the library building, a couple of blossoming cherry trees visible through the window, with iced coffee and a bunch of snacks i got from pharmaprix--i will never call it by its english name ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. i have i think 29 final essays to grade before the exam tomorrow morning, and i need to start strictly timing myself for each one (and quit leaving lengthy and chatty comments) if i want to get a couple hours' sleep tonight. i'm staying with friends who have a condo downtown and i'll be heading in their direction around 8pm, but until then i'm here. i'm not entirely sure how kosher it is for me to be grading student work out in the open where students could technically walk by and see, but this class is technically on a different campus so i'm just gonna do it. wish me luck if you've gotten this far, lmao.

-

*i genuinely suspect that the answer will be "yes, i want to finish this stupid degree," but i think i need some distance first, in order to get (back) to that place.

Email template!

So your local mall has a Papa John's inside, or maybe there's a Domino's operation out of the nearest Walmart. But wait! Those are both being targeted by the BDS boycott list at the moment! Why should you care if you're not getting food from them?

Because, my friends, you can also stop others from getting food from them as well.

Sure, you could arrange a sit-in (highly recommended), but maybe you're just too busy to do something like that. Capitalism, right?

Are you too busy to send one extra email per day using a template? If you answered yes, I wish you the best of luck avoiding burnout. You'll need it.

If you answered no, boy have I got the direct action for you!

So you're gonna want to find a company that's partnered with a BDS boycott target

The restaurants in the bottom right are probably your best bet, but by all means feel free to translate this to work for other targets. Just be sure to share so that others can get in on the fun!

Find their contact information, preferably an email. Here's what you're gonna send them.

"Hi there! I am extremely disappointed to see that you are still partnered with (bds boycott target), as they are currently sponsoring/profiting from an ongoing genocide in Palestine. I'd hate to see (target partner that you are emailing) on the wrong side of history, especially when it's clearly repeating itself. Might I suggest a partnership with (non-targeted non-partnered competitor of previously mentioned bds boycott target) instead? Their (product - specifics optional) is far better, anyways. (optional bonus: list some benefits of choosing the competition!) Thank you for your time. I look forward to seeing (partner) back on the correct side of history where it belongs. Cheers, Your name/pseudonym (Bonus: Add a ps full of evidence of the genocide!)"

All you have to do is find a partner of said target (for instance, the aforementioned walmart location with a bds boycott target operating inside), track down their email or contact page, fill in the blanks accordingly, and send your complaint their way.

If you can send one email per day, fantastic. If you can send more, even better. I would, again, highly recommend arranging a sit-in and other kinds of physical direct action. Remember, do NOT harass the workers.

For those of you working at bds targeted locations, i would highly recommend that you look for some other form of employment. I know it's a shit job market out there, but the sooner you start looking the more likely it is you'll be able to find something. This is especially true if you are in a location that is partnered with a non-targeted corporation.

I have no hopes of this email campaign getting big enough on its own to make significant change, certainly not if I and my friends are the only ones participating, but I have to do something or else this sense of helplessness will eat away at me. One more voice amplifying the message of the victims and survivors can only help.

Please reblog! If enough people get in on this, we could make these corpirations hemorrhage out more money! I know y'all like to see them get their asses whooped.

[bloodydeanwinchester]

i have to send 3 not fun emails to people who are almost certainly gonna be pissed as hell about a mistake that i made that definitely will negatively effect them and oh boy i am not looking forward to it. please wish me luck 😭😭😭

[natjennie]

got an announcement that in class tomorrow we're gonna be "doing some recording" which sent me into a considerable panic so I sent an email to my professor explaining that recordings of myself are a HUGE source of anxiety and any more information so I could prepare ahead of time, or even the opportunity to complete the assignment in a different way would be hugely helpful. and I agonized over sending it for a long time but I did and now I just have to wait to see if I get a response but I'm pretty proud that I sent it at all. anyway I'm not excited for tomorrow but I'm trying really hard to live in the next 10 minutes and not dread it. wish me luck besties.

[patchthemedic]

LET’S GOOOOO OOHH MY HEART

The last one came last night during class so i totally missed it, i gotta send out some thankful emails this weekend, but i have to dial it back so i don’t sound like my true feelings which are:

Wish me luck im on the second stage!!!!!!

[coffeeandcalligraphy]

Heya~ Wish me luck! I'm onto the final edits of my new short story! It fought me tooth and nail at the start, couldn't nail down the core conceit and then I was only able to get 100-200 words down a day, but it FINALLY came together. I'll be submitting it to an open-call anthology-- which, submissions don't open for another 10 days so I'm gonna be sitting here vibrating with anticipation and hovering my cursor over the send email button XD congrats again on finishing SV! they grow up so fast /teary eyed sniff

ahhh GOOD LUCK!!! that's so exciting that it eventually came together (I know the feeling)! and yayy, good luck with submissions! I have my fingers crossed for you!

also, tysm! it really did go by so fast, I can't believe it's been 2 years!

my tummy hurts.

i'm at joel's again.

the job fair this morning was underwhelming. i handed my resume to a guy at the information security desk and talked with him briefly, he handed me a few papers, told me to send an email to someone about an internship, and gave me back my resume. there wasn't a table for intel analysts, so that was kinda disappointing. i left shortly thereafter.

i went home, and i laid down for a while. i didn't nap right away, because i'm kinda dumb, but eventually i did nap when my brain was on fire and my anxiety was through the roof.

after waking up from my nap i went and saw kat. we dropped off her rental car and went for dinner together at one of the few places in town that i'll eat at and enjoy. we got ice cream after, and i brought her home. on my way back here, i stopped at the bank and then later for gas, and now i'm in bed waiting for joel to be all done with his game.

my interview is tomorrow at 9:30, and i'm really hoping it pans out for me. the excitement for it has mostly worn off into pure anxiety, which is very frustrating, because i just wanna have a calm tummy. it hurts.

im tired. im gonna finish my night posts and stuff and be done.

please manifest or pray or send good vibes that i get this job tomorrow and that they keep me.

wish me luck :)

I had a really, really bad morning yesterday. I had not taken my medicine because I was kind of worried I was going to end up running out of it because I have not kept up with making a new appointment with my doctor like I should have and blah blah blah, not really important for this post. The point is, yesterday before taking my medicine, I was feeling really bad.

I did end up sending an email to my doctor yesterday, though, and I know I’ll be good on my meds now. So this morning I took my morning medicine like I normally would. And I have to say that when I am properly medicated, I am kind of feeling like things could be looking up.

I’m mainly just feeling a lot better about work than I feel like I have in a long time or maybe ever. I’ve been feeling a lot more like I don’t really mind being there. Today I was for sure a thousand times more anxious in the time leading up to work than I was once I clocked in and started working. I really want to get that pre-work anticipatory anxiety under control too, but I’m happy that things are at least feeling a lot better than they did in the past once I’m actually working.

I am off tomorrow, but then my goal for Thursday through Saturday is to work 8 hour shifts from 2-10. One of my main goals if not the main goal that I really want to work on right now is getting myself back to 40 hour work weeks, or at least really close to it. I want to get back to being comfortable being at work for a full eight hours. And I think that’s definitely something that is becoming more of a possibility, because I’m leaving work extremely pissed off much less often.

I was having to work at a really fast pace basically nonstop for the first chunk of my shift today, and I didn’t have nearly the same amount of anxiety that I would have had in the past. I’m definitely trying to work on feeling like I want to be there, because I do want to be making more money. And I’m really not an extremely busy person outside of work. The only reason I don’t work more hours is because of my mental health, not because I have so many other things I need or even want to do outside of work. Which is why, again, I really am trying to tell myself that I want to be at work making money instead of at home watching YouTube or something.

I’m gonna try not to stay up to an unholy hour tonight so that I can wake up at a reasonable hour tomorrow for my day off. I want to get out of my apartment and do some walking to hopefully not feel like crap the whole day like I sometimes do on my days off. I was also thinking that I want to try to get my sleep schedule more under control in general, and try to get up and enjoy my mornings before my evenings at work. I’m thinking maybe I want to find a nice coffee shop or something. Somewhere I can go when I’m anxious before work to just chill. Because sometimes I end up leaving my apartment way too early just to try and get rid of that anxiety, and then I end up at work before it’s time to actually work. Which isn’t really ideal, it’s kind of a waste of time. So I don’t know, I’m gonna have to think more about how I want to handle my mornings.

Hopefully I am successful in extending my shifts for the rest of this week to be 8 hours instead of my usual 6. I think it’s going to work out well. And I will enjoy the extra money. And ultimately my goal is to be able to work those 8 hour shifts regularly so I can be making that extra money all the time. Wish me luck. 🙂

Resignation || Self Para

Date: 10/07/2023 Featuring: A letter to Eilonwy & the rest of the football team @eilonwy-notjustgirl @ianthedisastrous @jere-me--oh-my TW: Mental Health Summary: Riley resigns from the intramural football team via email & the aftermath

To: eilllyr@pride.edu; ianlightfoot@pride.edu; jerjohnson@pride.edu; [ooc: insert all the NPCs here] From: rilanderson@pride.edu; Subject: Resignation Hey Gang, I hate to do this to us in the middle of a good season but I am gonna have to resign from the team. Some issues in my personal life are just gonna have to put extracurriculars on the back burner my dudes. I apologize for the inconvenience this poses to you all and hope that I can at least make it to a few games to cheer you all on. I wish you all the luck coming forward in the season, Riley Anderson

Sending that email was one of the hardest things Riley had needed to do in awhile. Which was silly, right? Quitting an intramural sports team should be easy! It was intramural! The games were, like, so not serious, right? Well, not to Riley. These were the things that Riley took personally. Other people quitting the team had always felt like a punch to the gut, a blow that came across personal and pointed even when it fully wasn't.

Sports were important to Riley, that competitive spirit burning brightly below the surface. It was a core tenet to Riley's persona and they felt a tear in their chest as they stared at their Sent box in their university email.

Riley didn't even bother waiting for sleep to climb up onto the roof. It was a bit trickier climbing out of the dormitory window but Riley had their nimble reflexes to thank for not falling. The cold autumnal air created goosebumps to raise across their skin and Riley allowed for the glamor to fall from their appearance as they stared up at the stars above.

"What am I doing?" Riley sighed. Their eyes traced over Lacerta—The Lizard—and Pegasus newly returned to the Northern hemisphere's sights. They didn't answer Riley's question, not that Riley had expected them to. They were balls of gas an unfathomable distance away. They couldn't possibly understand the plight of one lost elf in a world they hadn't been meant for.

Maybe they should talk to someone who could actually speak, not ancient constellations that had no eyes or ears to understand their wishes and struggles. So Riley pulled out their phone, dialing Meg's familiar number.

It rang...

And rang...

And rang...

They tried again.

It rang...

And rang...

And rang...

Nothing.

Maybe Riley was too.

[daz4i]

anxiety is so funny I'll literally lie in bed just THINKING about doing something that isn't even like scary or hard at all to a normal person and my heart will start beating like i just ran a marathon
