proud, concussed damian
by wheezingdaffodil
“Thank you! My goodness, that was such a difficult case to solve. Ever think about joining us? No? Okay, thank you so much again. Really loving the work you do in Gotham.”
“Your from there?” Tim stuttered.
“Born and raised! Thank you so much again Mr Drake!” The detective waved and ran off. Tim swore his heart stopped.
“Mr Drake huh?” Peter sent a skeptical look at Tim.
Tim just grabbed Damian’s hand and ran. He was late for a meeting with Steph and Cass anyways.

You know what I've never done? A fic recs post. I should change that.
Let's call today Wesker Wednesday! Here's a short list of my favorite (completed) Resident Evil fanfics featuring my favorite villain, Albert Wesker. Most of these are on the older side, posted before A03 was even a thing. I have been in this fandom a loooong time (2008ish?) and I've had a while to hoard.
Thought I'd share them with the new kids who would otherwise have to sift through years upon years of fandom backlog to find these gems.
Bad Monday, Worst Morning by Adenosine
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7980892/1/Bad-Monday-Worst-Morning
parings: william birkin /annette birkin I guess?
rating: mature
This is a fun, short, gory fic set in the good old Umbrella days in which Wesker and the Birkins have a small problem with a BOW getting loose and going on a rampage. Really fantastic character interactions, and Wesker gets his head slammed into a floor repeatedly. What more can you want?
Proust, Pink Donuts and Parent Conferences by Cain Porter
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4122435/1/Proust-Pink-Donuts-and-Parent-Conferences
pairings: none
rating: Gen
The Birkins are too busy to come to parent teacher conferences. Fortunately/unfortunately for Sherry, her godfather Wesker shows up instead. I love fics where Wesker interacts with Sherry as a begrudging caretaker (because SOMEONE has to, and he's slightly more level-headed than his partners in crime), and this one captures that kind of dynamic perfectly.
Good by Mazzie May
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/2819213/1/Good
pairing: none
Rating: teen
This is more in the vein of Wesker helping to raise Sherry in an indirect sort of way. Follows their relationship from her birth all the way up to college.
Three Scenes by Cain Porter
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4050903/1/Three-Scenes
pairings: billy coen / rebecca chambers
rating: gen
Wesker, in the course of manipulating his way to power, accidentally enables a star crossed romance between Billy and Rebecca. Very clever use of outsider perspective.
State of Flux by lemon-sprinkles
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5641848/1/State-of-Flux
ship: albert wesker / chris redfield
rating: explicit
I don't even ship these two *dodges bricks* but if I have to recommend one chris/wesker fic, this is THE one. It's a slow build with a well-grounded approach to how they might have gotten into a relationship during their STARS days, and does not sugar coat what kind of man Wesker is while still keeping him human. There is also plenty of time and attention paid to the other STARS members and their shenanigans. The characterization throughout is excellent, and the ending perfectly bittersweet.
Resistance 1, and the rest of the 5 part series by Ornamental Nonsense
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4649957/1/Resistance-1
pairings: Claire Redfield / Albert Wesker, background Chris
Redfield / Jill Valentine and Ada Wong / Leon Kennedy
rating: varies from teen to explicit. most of the smut fades to black
This series is my gold standard for the other Redfield ship, Claire x Wesker. It begins with Claire stealing a virus sample from Wesker, who takes her hostage to get it back, and things spiral out from there. The two of them have a really lovely dynamic that grows more complex as the series goes on but never veers into melodrama. Claire is a badass and Wesker neatly walks the thin line between charming and deplorable, never falling into woobification or stooping to rape.
Corpus Delicti by Chaed
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4531873/1/Corpus-delicti
pairing: none
Rating: teen
A pre-mansion STARS adventure featuring the team tracking down a serial killer in a snowstorm. Everything this author writes is absolutely AMAZING and I recommend their entire RE library. Of which there is a lot.
Some Green Color by Coffin Liqueur
https://archiveofourown.org/works/24062953
pairings: William Birkin / Albert Wesker
rating: teen
Hey here's a more recent one. A short introspective piece where Wesker tries very hard to convince himself he's only studying Ada's retrieved G-samples for their BOW potential, and not because he's missing an old friend or anything.
Guilty Pleasure by Rainfox88
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6913629/1/Guilty-Pleasure
pairings: Albert Wesker / Ada Wong
rating: teen
A short but sweet oneshot where Ada and Wesker mend ways--in a manner of speaking--after the little incident of her betrayal in Spain. This author writes a good Ada in general and I recommend their other stuff as well.
And finally....
For anyone with darker tastes, let me share with you the two fanfics that changed the way I approach Wesker as a character forever. These are OLD AS BALLS, so old they're not on an archive site, they were hidden away on a personal fansite which has since been deleted.
Fortunately, we have the wayback machine.
Heart's Filthy Lesson and Human Behavior by Scarlet Fever
https://web.archive.org/web/20100925220423/http://www.xerampelinae.net/black/
Rating: NC-17 for extreme gore, disturbing imagery, explicit sex and trigger warning for rape.
Pairing: William Birkin / Albert Wesker, William Birkin / Annette Birkin, Steve Burnside / Albert Wesker
If you like long, involved, plotty horror erotica about extremely terrible people doing extremely terrible things, this is the series for you. It's like the Anne Rice vampire chronicles fused with NBC's Hannibal, biohazard style, in that megadark edgy way we could only really get away with back in the 2000s. It follows William and Wesker from their early Umbrella days to after Will's death and the events of Code Veronica. Needless to say this was posted long before RE 5 came out and has a very...unique...origin for Sherry Birkin.

I knew this would happen. Which is why I copied and pasted into a Word doc for later use. The original link of the “fantasy issue” of Sassy for December of 1994 is not working. In the event that it does come back up, click here.
Recall that there was a three-month period where Sassy changed hands. There were no official magazines from December 1994 through February 1995. But someone was dreaming . . . word for word, with all of its typos, here is the text:
Hey there chump! welcome to SISSY, the secret lovechild of old $kool Sassy mag and BLAIR - and written entirely by celebrities. Does mayim Bialik count as a celebrity? ...uhm, yeah.
so check it. the story goes that our much beloved sassy was bought and sold and the entire staff replaced by a new child safety lock staff - a staff who chose the word guido as their first new Glossary word of the month. Yeah, racist and like entirely pre-82? ...at least it's not SUBVERSiVE.
anyhow, sIssy is the LOST dec'94 issue of sAssy - the last issue EVER, never published before, syquests still at the printers, etc. It was gonna be put out as a paper zine, but everyone was too bummed out, and where the fuck did those disks go?! blair got slipped the ratty 3rd gen xeroxes and the rest is all here, revamped for the web. woo hoo!!
read up kid.
(see signature at top)
special thanks:ex-sassy staff. mayim bialik (so lame she's kool), brent the boy model (yow.), billy corgan, mike D., evan "i wish i were him" dando, james iha (who actually volunteered to write his feature on lolla 94), thurston moore aka
[email protected], rupaul queen of queens, chloe sevigny (ex-intern turn star), veruca salt (who hate all things "sickly-sweet and cloying").
thanks to contributers who didnt make the web issue: damon "i need yet another cover of the FACE" albarn, tyra banks who agreed to write her own fashion copy but whose xerox was so poor it could not be salvaged, naomi campbell whose SWAN novel was excerpted but then decided against cause #1 she didnt even write it herself, and #2 she snubbed her fans (me) at the barnes and nobles booksigning last winter, dr dre and ed lover, janeane garofalo whose HELP section was in lost pieces and right at the good questions!, lady kier who handed in her copy despite the fact there was a fire in her apt, ben lee, ian "he of affordable shows" mackaye, maki nomiya baby love child, ricky "beastie boy hanger-on" powell, michael stipe (did he really fuck kurt?), jenna "six" von oy (saw her doll at the flea market on 26th st), dean ween, wiley wiggins who answers email like a speed demon, dweezil zappa brother of the legendary moonunit.
NO thanks to:hope sandoval of mazzy star. she never showed up at the big fashion shoot she PROMISED to do. when mary called her, she didnt even apologize, but said she was going to get some custom leather pants made. oh. hope they give her a wedgie.

montueswednesthursfrisatursunday
montueswednesthursfrisatursunday is an online exhibition presenting the culmination of Loyola University Chicago’s Painting 2 course.
Students were prompted to create a project within the field of “Expanded Painting”. Individual projects incorporate painting, paired with various fields such as sculpture, installation, performance, drawing, alternative materials, and photography.
The exhibition title suggests the blur of time under quarantine, as days blend and a new reality is present. The instructor for the course, Gina Hunt, presented over 30 contemporary artists working within the field of Expanded Painting to introduce the project, and continued the semester via zoom meetings as the students worked at home. Each artwork is also paired with an artist statement.
The exhibition is also viewable via Instagram (@montueswednesthursfrisatursun)
The exhibition opens Friday, May 1 and will continue to be online for viewing throughout the summer. The artists featured in the exhibition are:
Victoria Baez
Addy Bonovich
Gen Boyle
Hana Comor
Jenna Heltzel
Victoria Hodkiewicz
Danielle Kaply
Mikaela Ludwig
Gwendolyn Madden
Aaron Sciborowski
Emma Sims
Mazzy Teich
Liliana Verna

right when rory and karmine started to get a bit of a romance bar, karmine aged up to young adult literally in front of rory. so that's probably not gonna happen.
