Jason has a little mishap on patrol becoming de-aged to a ten year old.

Jason felt scared, sitting on the cold concrete in a small corner. He was in the undergrad bomb shelter of Gotham pd. He used a boom tube to get here after having a mishap with a jewel he found that was apparently cursed. That resulted in Jason becoming a 10 year old kid. Jason took his phone seeing his reflection. He feels scared looking like this again. Being so small, so fragile. He hears a ring sound, a text from his mom.

~hey Jay! I hope you are doing great. We miss you here. Alfred is making dinner tonight and COOKIES. Do you think you can make it? We'd love to see you~

~sorry Ma have to take a rain check.. Maybe next time~

~OK sweetheart I love you~

Jason sniffles as his eyes water. He felt the desperate need for her affection. He remembered she would rub his face and kiss his head whispering his fears away. He missed Bruce's protection. How Bruce would rub his shoulder whilst he holds him and Y/N with his giant like arms. Remembering that moment so vividly only made him feel more vulnerable.

~love you too mom~

36 hours later. Jason hoped the spell or curse would've worn off by now but now.. Now he was really worried. Damian was his best shot to get what he needed without causing suspicious eyes of his mom and dad. Damian was quite confused by what Jason was asking for. He got everything he asked for stuffing them in Jason's old duffel bad when he was Robin. He packed snacks, water bottles and Damian's old clothes. He went to his older brother's hideout.

"Todd I'm here. Do you have a child you're hiding?"

Jason hid in small supply room leaning against the door. He text Damian thanks for bringing his stuff and to get lost. Damian scoffed. Something felt.. Odd. Jason forced a wince in from his back muscles spasms. A random occurrence since his current problem. Why did this have to happen right now.. Damian hears a soft groan from the room. Too curious to not investigate he turns the door knob. Jason panics reaching for the doorknob and keeps it from turning. Damian abruptly turned the doorknob. Jason cursed that he wasn't strong enough to keep him from opening the door.

"go the fuck away Damian!!"

Damian froze seeing the little black haired boy. Jason rolled his eyes folding his arms.

"wh-what? Jason?" Damian erupted in a genuine laugh.

"stop laughing Damian!!" Jason yelled

Damian was taken aback by his brother's outburst ".. We should go home. Mother and Father will be able to--" Jason quickly cut Damian off

"fuck no! I don't want them to know it's bad enough that you do. I never should have texted you"

Alfred was soon beginning to notice that things were disappearing. They were going to donate Damian's casual clothes that he had outgrown, however they had slowly been vanishing it seems. There's been less food in the cabinets.. Even Damian was vanishing at odd times. With all of that things from Jason's room had begun to disappear. Y/N and Bruce were growing weary of what was going on. A part of them wondered if Jason met a child who didn't have a home. During patrol Batman followed Damian from a far enough distance he would not notice him. Damian went inside. Jason sat on the couch wearing Damian's old clothes. Damian reached in his pocket to give Jason his snack from the house. Jason snatched it eating it quickly.

"thanks Dami"

"you'd be less famished if you--"

"just fucking stop it! OK! I am not going back home" Jason was humiliated by his current predicament. He knew coming back home would bring on too many emotional memories.

As Damian left Bruce took his chance to investigate what was really going on. He went inside seeing his little boy sleeping while laying wrapped in his blanket. Bruce was taken aback. He was so precious. His 20 year old son had now somehow de-aged ten years of his life. Bruce takes his cowl off. Jason always was a heavy sleeper once he finally fell asleep. Bruce gently rubbed his shoulder. Bruce held his tears back remembering when he was Robin.

"Jason.. Jason.. wake up son" Bruce gently muttered as to not startle him

"B? What are you?.." Jason rubs his eyes sitting up he then gasp "fuck! Fuck! Fuck! No! No! What are you doing here? Did Damian tell you?.. This is not permanent.."

"I don't care if it's 2 months or 2 hours you're coming home"

"no! Absolutely not! I am not doing that! You can't make me"

"this is non-negotiable son. You're coming home"

Jason had his arms folded sitting in the passenger seat of the bat-mobile. He really didn't want to go through this. Bruce thought it best to have each of the children so that things didn't get lost in communication. As Bruce parked he opens the doors.

"I'm not coming out this vehicle!" Jason demanded

"you are.. C'mon son" Bruce ordered leaving the bat-mobile

Alfred nearly burst into tears as he looks at the young chap. Grayson couldn't believe his own eyes. It was like seeing a ghost. Tim was taken aback but knew it was indeed Jason. Duke had to blink several times still in shock. Cassandra instantly recognized her brother's eyes. Stephanie thought he was adorable. Barbara couldn't believe it was really him.

"you guys look like you've seen a ghost" Jason joked hating all the attention.

Y/N gasp as she takes a deep breath remembering how little he was when Joker took him. Jason looks away as she slowly approached him. She kneels down and holds his small arms.

"hey look at me" he looks at her "you're going to be OK, we'll figure this out together"

Zatanna nor Dr Fate could return Jason back to his normal age. So they had to wait until a solution arrived. Grayson tried his best to try to be there for his little brother. Especially considering how much he hated himself for not being there for him before he was killed. Jason continued to beg his parents to let him go on patrol however Y/N was worried Jason may overestimate his abilities.

"it's too early Bruce" Y/N mumbled seeing Jason wearing his old Robin uniform.

He kisses her "he'll be fine Y/N. Besides we both know he'll sneak out if we eventually don't let him go"

They infiltrate Joker's hideout H/N and Batman along with Robin take out the men. Joker runs through the door. Jason runs after him, determined that this time it would go different.

"do not engage Robin!!" Batman orders.

Bruce and Y/N tried to quickly fight off the men so they could follow their son. Jason nearly fell to his back. Joker reached for the tire iron to swing at Jason. The small boy jolted back terrified by the monster that was about to kill him. Batman and H/N entered. Batman abruptly punched Joker. Y/N rushed kneeling down to Jason holding his arms, as he was shaking through his lips and body.

"shhh-shhh-shhh it's Mom. Listen to my breathing baby" she encouraged going through the breathing exercises. "feel my arms baby. Look at me. You're safe. It's OK"

Jason breathed normally but he was still so terrified. He breaks down sobbing. Y/N's heart breaks hugging her baby boy. He buried his face in her neck to hide from the pain. Batman knocked Joker through the door, to the ground outside. Batman grabbed his collar as, he laughed. Bruce snarled in complete rage.

Y/N held Jason gently rocking him and kisses his head "I-I wanted to prove that I was strong enough... I'm so fucked up all the damn time"

"shhhh you're not fucked up baby you are so strong and brave. But you have to remember that you are not alone and we are here to always protect you. It's OK that you are not always ok"

Jim came to take Joker into custody. Batman heavily breathed trying to calm down his rage. He couldn't stop the memory of holding Jason in his arms crying. He then remembered his son was still here. Bruce rushes to them seeing them in each others embrace. Bruce leans down to them sitting on the ground.

"it was too early Dad" Jason cried with a soft smile and sniffle. He didn't want Bruce to think he was mad at him, in truth he blamed himself.

"I'm sorry Jay" he kisses his small head holding his face with his palm "I'm so sorry son" he brokenly said

Bruce pulled his wife from her back side, to sit in his lap holding them both. Batman gently rubbed his son's back. Jason didn't know how much longer he'd be like this, but right now. He only wanted to be safe in their arms.

Something’s wrong with our body but we don’t know what do I’m just going to talk to the air here about it 😻

So as a few of you might know we suffer from sharp pain that effects our whole body. That’s about the extent we’ve shared online, but I’m gonna go into more detail. It mostly originates from our spine, and shoots outwards like a jellyfish almost. Sometimes it’s just our spine/back, and when it’s our whole body the spine/back feels the worse. It affects our ability to walk, and generally do things.

We also have trouble with our muscles. They do this thing where they get really stiff and like half the time they spasm. It doesn’t always effect all our limbs, and it never effects our consciousness so we don’t think it’s a seizure. The worst part is when we have to do something, we can’t move our arm(s)/leg(s) and it hinders us.

It’s not like we can’t feel them though. Parts of our body get a bit numb sometimes but we can always feel them to some extent. Also, when our muscles get like that they get really weak. It’s lead to some things I’d rather not talk about, but point is it sucks.

The whole thing sucks, actually. I know a label/diagnosis won’t change the symptoms but it would make me feel less crazy. But yeah, to whoever reads this thanks for listening.

It’s one of those night where I want to cut off my legs again… why do they hurt so bad?

[bolontiku]

I am so Sore

All of my muscles are spasming. My hand are cramping, I forgot I had hamstring and quads, my calfs are threatening to Charlie horse and... AND DID YOU KNOW THERE ARE MUSCLES AROUND YOUR RIBS?! Like back muscles but in front?! THATS A THING?!?! WTF?! Even my neck hurts... or is that my hair? 😭😭😭 there are muscles on my arms that I didn't know I had.

What do you do when your rib muscles decide that they are gonna Charlie horse and you end up looking like the possessed chick cause your trying to contort your body so that it stops HURTING!?!

I think my eyelids are tired too... imma get some food in me and then finally sleep

[slenderfirebolt]

Why cant i just tell myself things are fine (they probably will be) and then be fine? Instead i am having Manually Enforced Floor Time because my response to being stressed and paniced and nervous isnt ‘feel bad’ but instead ‘no legs + your skeleton wants to escape + no holding things’. Autism and Conversion disorder is a shitty combo.

Im just glad it hasnt caused me much physical pain as of yet, though im starting to suspect that my knees are a bit fucked thanks to hitting the floor alot and me not using my hamstrings for like. Twenty years.

[dittohasadhd]

some fucking Karen : I would never eat any processed foods! I don't put anything in my body that I can't pronounce the ingredients of!

me (washing down 5 pills w/ a meal replacement drink) : idk lady. sounds like a skill issue.

[disabled-dragoon]

It's a new symptom day apparently

Had a spasm on the bus that affected each individual finger

That's new

[normal-newt]

Would really love if back muscles stopped trying to curl up like backwards pill-bug.

know who the muscle culprits are, no idea what their motive is. there is no benefit to doing this.

anyone know how to calm down horrible back flexor muscles is welcome to say how. (already trying return to physio to fix abs)

side note. body builders must have the worst muscle cramps on earth?

Disproportionate Retribution for Cassius

Thank you for the fill!

Cassius would never get used to the canine king of the Tainted holding him by his neck. Whether it was the back or the front, Cassius always hated it.

This time, it was the front. He could hardly breathe as he was forced to make eye contact with King Myndill.

“You know, Cassius,” King Myndill squeezed his neck a little harder. “Sometimes, when Hakon is upset, he talks to me instead of his friend in the bone library.”

Cassius didn’t know what the bone library was or that Hakon even had a friend. Why should he care, anyway? Hakon was an experiment of his, one that had gone wrong.

His thoughts were cut off by a tightening of the squeezing. “He’s told me about many of the horrible things you did to him while he was your captive. So, now, I’m going to show you what it’s like to live through the horrors you’ve put my people through.”

King Myndill dropped Cassius onto his broken bones before dragging him over to the table in the middle of the King’s torture room.

Cassius wondered for a moment exactly what Hakon had said. It was an oversight, yes, to have allowed a failed experiment to go. Yet, something in him doubted he could’ve ever predicted King Myndill capturing him or even that Hakon would become a Tainted.

His thoughts were cut short by the superhuman speed at which King Myndill approached him. Before Cassius knew what was going on, his arms and legs were strapped down to the table. King Myndill moved with terrifying speed and Cassius was extraordinarily tired.

However, he wouldn’t be tired much longer. King Myndill approached him with a syringe filled with a clear liquid. Cassius’ eyes widened. He knew to expect the worst from King Myndill. He could only guess what the syringe contained.

“Have fun, my boy, just like you did to Hakon all those years ago.” King Myndill smiled wickedly at him.

The substance was cold going into his skin and felt like peanut butter. It took everything in Cassius not to whimper as it went in, practically ripping the layers of his skin apart.

The feeling of his hair standing on end and his mind racing came shortly after. Cassius never had panic attacks, though he’d seen countless. However, lying there on the table, he realized he was well and truly going to die. King Myndill had done it.

His breathing raced. He was dying. He was dying.

The other effects hit next. He was dying from his muscles contracting and being ripped apart inside of him. He let out a loud cry as molten hot iron filled every inch of every muscle in his body - burning, searing, and tearing, leaving only carnage in its wake. However, he soon lost control of the muscles in his jaw and couldn’t speak.

The panic kept coming. He really was dying. He was going to die. He couldn’t stopped his panicked breaths. Between the spasms and the panic, his restraints were cutting into his wrists and ankles.

He heard King Myndill’s chuckle from the other side of the room.

King Myndill left him like that until, eventually, the panic subsided. However, the pain didn’t stop. In fact, it continued for hours, even after King Myndill decided he’d had his fun for the day.

When Cassius was laid in his cell, his body aching and his mind destroyed, he could only feel empty.

Some part of him wished that the bastard really had killed him.

Hadn't he paid his dues already?

He would come to find out that the answer was "no" when King Myndill approached him the next week with the same syringe.

Cassius never put Hakon through anything similar. He always gave him breaks between experiments.

With luck, he would be dead by the week's end.

I'd really like to hear more about the magnesium flakes and oil spray! how did you make the spray? how do you use each of them? where does one get the supplies for such things?

muscle tension/spasms are one of my primary sources of chronic pain and exacerbate the others. I would be very grateful for any of the tips and tricks for reduction, management, and coping you'd like to share 🖤

Of course, happy to share what I've learned/experienced so far. I can't believe I didn't think to try this sooner, as magnesium in this form is more easily used by the body than epsom salts. It makes sense that my muscles have been chronically starved of magnesium for so long since we excrete it during stressful times and that's like. Been my whole life lol. It's been great so far and I hope to continue to do this daily to keep myself more balanced. You can buy the spray pre-made, which I've tried in the past (but wasn't consistent enough to see these results) but it's way more affordable to just buy the flakes and use them to make oil. You just dissolve the flakes in hot water, let it cool, and put it in a bottle. That's all it takes. For a foot soak, 1 cup of flakes is suggested. For a fullbody soak, 3-4 cups is suggested. So just to start, I used 1 cup of flakes dissolved in 1.5 cups of water. It's a pretty low dose so I was able to apply 3x a day to start getting my levels back up. But I don't necessarily want to have to apply it so often, so for my next batch I'll use 2 cups of flakes to make it a bit stronger. A little bit of a higher dose will definitely help me maintain the effect. It does sting a bit at first. Some doctors have said that's a sign of magnesium deficiency in that tissue. It no longer stung after a few days of application. It did break my back (and chest when it dripped) out a little bit but that's a problem I have throughout the year. I did start doing aerobics again and sweating usually triggers my body acne anyway. I've just been using my usual acne body wash and salicylic acid body spray to help it calm down and it's almost healed now. Skinfood's Peach Sake Toner helped a lot too. Tons of people online said that applying it topically helped with constipation and I didn't believe it could work that way, but sure enough it does. I've even been skipping my usual anti-constipation smoothies (chia/flax seeds/gel, sea moss gel, etc) to test it out. I've been having a muuuch easier time which is impressive considering a few weeks ago my colon was acting miserable and I had to do an enema on Christmas Eve. Colitis is a hassle. The relaxing effect on my muscles and on my general state of being is pretty impressive. It has a lot to do with regulating glutamate and GABA. Some doctors online have good info on their YouTubes/Instagrams where they can explain it better. My magnesium flakes are from the Now brand. I found the price for the size of the tub reasonable since I'm mostly using it topically and not for soaking. I'll still do a soak every once in a while (maybe on my period) to give my levels a boost. I have a few spray bottles around so I just filled one of those for easy application. It takes a little bit to rub in and can potentially stain, so I've been wearing my grey pajamas after applying and haven't had any issues. I also added a little bit of peppermint and clary sage oil to mine just for the tingle and aromatherapy but you can add anything or nothing at all. If you're also consuming plenty of magnesium in supplements/diet, just make sure to do your research on dosing because there is such a thing as too much. Hope this helps!
