#oracle alias name

[theraven-lenore-nevermore]

I need help finding a DP X DC FIC.

Okay, I vividly remember reading a DC x DP fic scene, where Barbara Gordon was trying to find a way into Amity Park's tech, or the town has firewalls that blocked anyone outside of the town from getting any current/actually useful information. And eventually she gets through the firewalls, only for a video from Tucker Foley made to play when she gets through or gets let through. Where he introduces himself (as his hacker alias) and Barbara recognizes him, they've talked and worked together before, only to say that "If anyone is seeing this video. Then I am dead". {I think he also says, "And Danny needs help," but I'm not sure.} And he starts to explain the G.I.W. and Amity Park's whole ghost problem, as well as Danny's situation. While everyone else in the watchtower [because I believe that's where both she and Tim were to do this] watches on, it cuts to show Barbara (Oracle) has been crying silently since the video of her hacker friend said he was dead, just staring at the screen.

That's it, I remember reading the scene, I just can't remember where. I can't remember the name of the fic. I just know that Danny ended up in Gotham, and I'm pretty sure his sister Jazz, Tucker, and Sam were dead.

Has anyone also read this? Can anyone tell me the name? Can someone help?

[fanfic-obsessed]

How Old?!?!?!

Remember Folks, disregard any canon that contradicts this.

Timothy Wayne Drake disappeared when he was 16. He was taken captive in Eastern Europe at a WE event. A magical shield cut off all electronic communication, sight, and sound of the building for 6 minutes. According to every Super consulted, Tim’s heartbeat vanished at that time, and never reappeared. No facial recognition ever showed him again. No magical spell could find him, or his remains. Eight years later he is presumed dead by most of those who knew him, though his family still searches frantically for their Baby Bird. It is only the fact that they knew how much he loved Gotham, that he would want the city protected, that they did not let their obsession with finding him take them over. 

According to his file, Neal Caffery has been operating since he was 18. There are no records prior to that. By the numbers he is now 34, and had been working as a CI for the feds for 2 years.  He has never admitted to anyone that his earliest memories are six years ago, though Peter, El, and Moz have all figured it out.  But his abilities, muscle memory, and knowledge seem to support what's in his file.  That must mean something, right?

It was not a White Collar case, not really. Though there were just enough white collar elements to justify assigning it to Agent Burke and his team, this really was an Organized Crime case. However it was leading to Gotham, and no one wanted to go to Gotham. 

So Agent Burke, his two junior agents, and his CI were bundled into a SUV and told to report to Gotham PD to coordinate the case.  Upon arriving at the main precinct and getting out of the car; Peter, Diana and Jones all get strange looks from the locals on the street, though they do not know it, it is clear they are outsiders. 

However Neal gets out with a strange look on his face, “Why does the air taste..”

“Pink?” One the pedestrian answers, suspicion washing away.

“Yes” Neal exclaimed, then paused, “That’s weird, right? I feel like that’s weird”

The pedestrian gave a half shrug, “Ivy and Scarecrow double booked downtown a few weeks ago. Made things super awkward for anyone not vaccinated against both, but the vaccines made the air taste pink for some reason. The news said that the unvaccinated shouldn’t see effects any longer and for the vaccinated the effect would be gone in two more weeks”

Then the pedestrian left and Neal, entirely unconsciously, murmured about wondering if Ivy and Harley were fighting. When Peter tried to get more information about Neal having been in Gotham as they walked into the Precinct, Neal made a joke to cover the fact that he has no idea when or where he got the vaccines/immunities to Poison Ivy’s pollen or Scarecrow's Fear Gas.  

They manage to make it to the main bullpen without incident, by virtue of the fact anyone who actually looks up from what they were doing focuses on Peter, as lead agent.  When they get to the Bullpen, someone notices Neal and the entire room goes dead silent. Commissioner Gordon comes charging out, eyes wild and clearly on the phone with someone (Oracle, who happened to see Neal/Tim on camera-it is important to note that the group who took Tim made it so that any facial recognition program that would run either face would skip the match between Tim and Neal, but a person looking through a camera is different) saying things like “Holy Shit” and “Yes I see him, too”. 

The White Collar team, including Neal, is so confused as Commissioner Gordon ushers them to his office and closes the door (Oracle has her fathers office bugged with better cameras and wired for sound, also they do not know how much cover they have already broken for Tim-they do not want to make things worse instead of better). 

Commissioner Gordon calls Neal Tim, and Neal/Tim seizes for a moment like he was hit with electricity and says, in a deadened tone, “That name cannot be used as an Alias” then slumps like he is going to fall over. Peter and Jones manage to catch him and get him into a chair that Commissioner Gordon hurriedly pulls over.  The confusion that the White Collar team is exhibiting, plus questions like “What was that?” and “What did you do to Neal?” and “What did you call him?” do convince commissioner Gordon that these, at least, were not the people that took Tim.  It takes a few minutes for Tim/Neal to come to.  A few careful call and response questions tells Commissioner Gordon that the man with Tim’s face (and scars, from what he can see) does not remember anything.  These same questions were also clearly making the White Collar team, particularly Peter, as protective as they were making Neal/Tim confused and more than a little anxious.

Then Dick Grayson burst into the room, looking like he might have run all the way from Bludhaven.  He stopped dead at seeing Neal, whispered ‘Baby Bird?’ then lunged to pull Neal into a tight hug. Neal may have had no memories of being Tim, but his muscle memory remembered Dick’s hugs. That he was safe while Dick was hugging him, Neal could not help but relax into the hold. 

Dick start talking about getting Neal to Leslie both to make sure he's not hurting and to verify his identity (sounding apologetic but, no matter if Dick is sure this is Tim, they have to verify it), that ‘B’ is out of contact right now (on a JL mission off planet, the watchtower is preparing to extract him, but it will take a few hours-the JLD is also preparing in case they are needed) but should be back soon. He talks about how Alfred will be waiting outside for them, but ‘everyone else’ is waiting so they don’t overwhelm him (read clustered, and pacing, on buildings around Leslie’s clinic).  

Neal brings up, still wrapped in Dicks arms, that he might not be who they think he is. Dick agrees but also says that he isn’t, it is a case of mistaken identity and it is clear that Neal is not trying to trick them. Dick then says if it is Mistaken identity, Dick will apologize for the forcible cuddling and be grateful that, even if they don’t actually find him, he got a chance to hug his little brother one last time (Every single member of the White Collar Team, Neal very much included, is a little uncomfortable with this sentiment). 

At Peter’s awkward insistence (these people clearly miss whoever they think Neal is, and he doesn’t know if they would think about Neal’s criminal activities) the White collar team accompanies Neal, still clutched to Dick’s side, to a car waiting with Alfed right next to it, who is clearly having an emotional reaction to seeing Neal/Tim again.  Over the course of the car ride to Leslie’s clinic, Dick asks questions about who Neal is now (and reacts weirdly well to the whole Conman/FBI CI thing). Towards the end, Jones hesitantly asks why Dick is trying to get to know Neal now, wouldn’t it make more sense to wait until they were sure who Neal was. 

Dick laughs and goes 1.) Even if Neal is not his long lost brother, several of his siblings are going to want to befriend him (if nothing else than being a world class master art forger would get Damian’s attention, and everyone else would 100% be encouraging the friendship to give Damian more non violent friends) and 2.) Baby Bird is notorious for trying to mold himself into who he thinks other people want him to be. Right now he does not know enough about Dick to try and tailor his answers, plus is likely convincing himself that this is a case of mistaken identity. Thus Dick is collecting information for when Baby Bird inevitably tries to fit himself into whatever weird mold he thinks their family will want him to fit.  

Neal, still clutched to Dick’s side, splutters as the White Collar team cannot help but laugh at him. Also this somewhat convinces Peter that this might not be a case of mistaken identity after all.  

They get to Leslie’s Clinic. She runs through all the tests (Genetic and comparing previous x-rays, signs of artificial aging-for cloning, signs of the specific type of molecules that means time or dimension travel, brain scans, the few hormone tests that can detect magic-you can’t tell me that Bruce Wayne and/or Tim Drake, before he vanished, were not told at some point that there is no way to detect magic by scientific means and took it as a personal challenge). By every measure that she is able to test, Neal Caffrey is the missing Tim Drake.  She is also able to tell that his memory loss was likely caused by significant and repeated electrocution reinforced by some kind of magic, but cannot tell what or if it is still active, though given Tim’s reaction to his birth name (which happened twice more during the tests) and the fact that the Supers were never able to find his heartbeat,it is likely. 

By this time, Batman has now been returned to the watchtower and is being told of Tims return.

Dick tells Neal outright that their entire family’s love languages are stalking and poor boundaries (both maintaining and respecting). Dick also makes it clear that, while the Batfam is ecstatic that Neal/Tim is alive and want him in their lives, Neal is not required to attempt to get his memories back or have anything to do with them if he does not want (All of their therapists, the family could not go to just one, had worked specifically with them on how to deal with a Tim that has made a new life, how to accept that he is safe and happy but not with them-which is a realistic assumption after 8 years), but that likely Neal would be putting up with some limited stalking for the rest of his life (Look, the best we are going to get from the Batfamily is stalking from the shadows if Neal doesn’t want to interact with them-Also Oracle has already hacked the FBI for all of Neals records and files, and is the middle of arranging for the White Collar office to be bugged with her personal cameras/microphones). Dick also asks that the White Collar team come back to the Manor and to at least let the Justice League Dark look Neal over to make sure that there is nothing that is going on that will hurt him. 

Now, to be clear, Neal is more than happy to at least meet the rest of the Batfam.  Yes, he has a good life now, people he loves and who love him. But that is a relatively new development and there are a lot of blanks in his past. I mean at this point Neal still thinks he is 34 (as opposed to 24), and only remembers the last six years. They have not even gone far enough into the explanations to realize that there is a 2 year gap between when Tim was taken and Neal's earliest memories.  Also, while Neal does not quite have the same level of abandonment issues as Tim did, there is something about how visibly happy Dick is to see him that soothing something deep inside (Because he has six years worth of memories, and for most of them he did not have anyone who would have noticed if he had vanished).

They get back to manor just in time for Bruce to come charging into the foyer, still in the batman suit but with his cowl down. Bruce also looks like he might have ran from wherever he was. He had at least absorbed enough of what he was told about Neal to not call him Tim, and pulled Neal into a hug.  This also means there is a brief interlude while the White Collar team gets the ‘Bruce Wayne is Batman, we’re trusting you with this’ revelation (And absolutely everyone is going to be making fun of Bruce ‘Paranoia’ Wayne being the person who accidentally let the secret slip).

By the time they reach the main sitting room, the rest of the family has made it back to the manor (Barbara, Jason, Cass, Steph, Damian, Duke) each waiting on their own chance to hug their lost member.   Neal blue screens a bit at Jason (who is both very pretty and very sarcastic, which is Neal's type).  Through the discussions that follow there are at least two arguments between batfam members about who gets to have Neal to sit with them.

Neal decides that he will meet with someone from JLD to see about what magic might still be affecting him and regaining his lost memories. He and the White Collar team do decline staying at the manor and go back to the hotel rooms that the FBI rented for them (never realizing that Oracle upgraded them as soon as she realized who Neal was) as they still have a job to do. It is at this point that  Neal starts whining to the others, much to their amusement (also to the amusement of Steph and Cass, who were hiding on the balcony-there is no way there will not be at least one bat/bird hiding in the shadows around Neal for a bit), about his new, hot brother Jason.  Peter calls El, just so Neal can have his crisis with her instead of him (Never mind that being siblings is not as big a deal as Neal thinks it is).

Now Gotham, and its people, have a reputation at the FBI for being actually impossible to work with.  Even regular citizens stonewall so effectively that most teams simply give up. They simply do not like outsiders, and Gothamites can tell if someone grew up in Gotham or not, even if the person in question does not realize it (there are unconscious ways of moving if you have lived in Gotham for a certain amount of time). This is what the White Collar team expects to go against, what they are bracing for, no matter who Neal might or might not have been.  To their surprise this is not what they get. Yes, most people still peer suspiciously at Peter, Jones, and Diana at first, but even that settles down quickly (Some of it is Neal/Tim, being from Gotham, clearly trusting Peter and co gets them some good will; some is them not being sanctimonious about gotham; the rest is the batfam being vocal about liking these FBI agents-for Neal/Tim related reasons).  They solve the case, which branched from White collar into one of the Mob Families (at least two of the traffickers got the choice to talk to the FBI team, or deal with The Red Hood-Red Hood plays it off as using the FBI to take a shot at that family’s territory and being personally interested in Neal Caffrey).

Before they leave Gotham, Neal does meet up with a few members of the JLD who are able to find and remove the spells that prevent Neal/Tim from being found by the Supers and the Spell keeping him from being addressed as Tim. His missing memories were not fully caused by magic (There was a lot of damage caused by electricity-no one took that news well), but the magic was preventing some of his recall. With the spells off, it is inferred that some or all of Tim’s memories may come back in time. 

The White Collar team leaves Gotham with new contacts in their phones and also the bomb that Neal Caffery was a full decade younger than he thought he was (They do eventually figure out that Neal/Tim never actually committed the crimes in his file-not that the crimes were never committed but that Neal/Tim was basically went straight from where ever he was being held to being captured for ‘Neal Caffery’s’ crimes).  Peter later finds a much more complete medical record for Tim Wayne Drake in his home, with an ominous note to keep this file out of the FBI records, it is for personal reference only. They also leave with the decision to keep Neal’s identity a secret (As no one knows who the ones who took them are, or what the end goal is), telling only Hughes, El and Moz. By the time the WC crew reaches New York, the Bats already have bugs/cameras in the FBI building, Neal’s apartment, and Peter’s house.  They have also put trackers in every single pair of Neal’s shoes. There is also a schedule for who gets to stalk/hang out with Neal when.  

As far as the rest of the FBI was concerned, White Collar gets a lot of strange new contacts for cases.  Also they seem to have made an impression on the Justice League, as they become the point of contact between the Justice League and the FBI, by request of the League.  Occasionally hardened criminals walk into the FBI and ask to confess their crimes specifically to Agent Burke and his team. And Apparently their CI knows the Red Hood, somehow (in that the Red Hood sometimes showed up at their crime scene to flirt outrageously with the CI, the first few times the CI got really flustered but after that he started to flirt back). 

Eventually Neal/Tim does begin to remember his past, oddly enough the trigger was a spleen in a jar that was left on his desk in the White Collar Office (Ra’s Al Ghul was…pleased that Tim was not dead and displeased with the Organization the abducted him and  tried to fry Tim’s brain).

Captured King snippet 3

Happy wip wednesday y'all

part 1 part 2 ao3

"Danny?" Batman asks Red Robin.

"Yup. Danny Phantom, he's using his alias as a last name."

~~~

Phantom tenses, fists tight where the cuffs connect them to the table.

Hood saunters in, turning his chair to sit backwards, "do you know who I am?"

Phantom deliberately loosens his posture, eyes taking the same vacant stare he has adopted at every other attempt to question.

"I'm the Red Hood, an Outcast operating out of Gotham."

No response from Phantom.

"Right. Fair. Ok, how about instead we start this conversation with someone you actually want to talk to?"

A slight twitch from Phantom, oh so momentarily tilting his head to the side questioningly as Red Hood pulls a communicator from a cargo pocket.

~~~

Batman narrows his eyes as he sees Oracle's symbol flash on the screen before Hood places the phone on the table. Phantom deliberately does not look at it, until the communicator clicks, indicating the call had connected and a young feminine voice warily speaks, "hello? Red Hood?"

~~~

Phantom's composure crumples, desperately snatching the communicator, crying out, "Ellie! Ellie is that you? Are you okay?"

"Danny! Yeah I'm" her voice cracks, and there is a wet quality to her voice when she continues, "I'm fine. Knew you'd get me out, even if you needed help."

"Hey." A second voice joins Ellie's on the call, "we need to wrap this up and get out of here."

"Right, are you two ready for a show?" Hood asks.

"Wait!" Ellie demands, "is everyone out?"

"All of ours are." Ellie's companion scoffs.

"Red! That's not all that matters, we're supposed to be better than that!"

Danny flinches in his seat.

"Oracle" Hood says, "what's the evacuation status?"

"Scans confirm what the Red Huntress said, all ghosts have been released, and the evacuation protocols we triggered have been followed, all 'employees' are accounted for outside of the facility."

"Red Huntress, Ellie, are you two a safe distance away?"

"Yes"

"Perfect. Ready whenever you are then."

~~~

Red Robin smiles, pressing a button on his wrist computer, the distinctive sound of an explosion comes over Red Hood's communicator while the Red Huntress and Ellie cheer.

"Red Robin."

"Batman."

Batman turns away from the observation window to look at Red Robin directly.

Red Robin's smile drops into a sneer, "have you even been in a GIW facility that wasn't sterilized before your arrival? Nobody was in it, I'm not sorry for destroying a building, and Ellie deserves the cheer."

Batman hadn't. He had wanted to. But when it came to prioritizing, the destructive force had ranked higher. And while the Justice League had been busy with Phantom, the rest of his team had inserted themselves. It shouldn't surprise Batman, and any shock was vastly outweighed by exasperation. Trusting others, relinquishing any ounce of control didn't come naturally to Bruce. 'Luckily' for him, he had somehow surrounded himself with hyper competent people who had no problem wresting control for themselves.

"Hn."

"Hn." Red Robin smirks, shaking his head as they turn back to face the interrogation room.

~~~

As their cheers dies down Red Huntress speaks resolutely, "Danny. We need to leave. I gave her a dose of ecto dejecto, and I'm taking her to Frostbite for a full check up. Any other update will wait until you're back with us in person. See you soon."

She hangs up before Danny can respond.

Danny stares at the communicator for a long desperate moment, before slowly looking up to Red Hood. "You helped her? The Red Huntress was with you?"

"Not initially, no. But she was the first person Ellie could name as an emergency contact. After you that is."

"And she's ok? You saw her, how is she- she's ok?"

Hood hesitates, speaking slowly, calming, "whatever the Red Huntress gave her helped, the 'ecto dejecto'? But she was in bad shape. Your Red seems confident she will be fine, but I don't know if that was sincere or for Ellie's benefit. And I would have no idea where to even begin with medical attention with her whole deal, and how 'ghost' biology works." As he speaks he opens the manila folder he had brought with him, sliding it over to Danny, who flips through the pages with shaking hands.

~~~

From the angle of the observation room Batman can't see what he is looking at, he turns slightly to Red Robin, who interrupts before Batman can ask.

"There's nothing in that file that isn't also in the upload from Oracle, if you want details you can read that, it's notes and pictures from a very relevant GIW experiment."

"Hn."

~~~

"Thank you. For getting her out."

"It was the right thing to do."

"I don't think the GIW would agree with you there."

"Good. From where I'm sitting, standing against them is the right side to fight for. If not for Ellie's insistence that 'we're supposed to be better than that' I can't say I would have stuck to your MO of clearing the building before destroying it."

"I can't say I would blame you. Or that I would have been able to stick to my MO if I arrived too late. But it's, it's important to me to be able to say we aren't the monsters they say we are. Thank you for that as well."

"You didn't see her when I first found her-" Danny glances quickly between a picture from the folder and Hood, raising an eyebrow, "I don't mean that. That that doesn't surprise you is its own kind of concerning. She was in a holding cell. She thought I was one of them and-"

"You don't like being seen as a monster."

Red Hood freezes for a moment. "Sometimes I do. But never by kids and not-" Hood laughs, interrupting himself before continuing, "gods, the change in her demeanor when I said your name and she thought you had sent me. That sister of yours has a lot of faith in you."

ECLIPSE

"Your life has taken a new turn. New family, new symbols, new goals, and new feelings. A lot of which you aren't sure how to navigate. You're trying, but things are never as easy as they seem when you have a Bat Symbol plastered to your chest. The present is novel, but the ghosts of your past might not be ready to let you go just yet."

contains: blood, gore, talk of death and drugs, angst, fluff (kind of), reader is not an OC but goes by "Eclipse" as her alias (bcs I needed to name her something and I refuse to use y/n), fem reader.

notes: I know I am supposed to complete my other fics but I could not get this idea out of my head even when I tried, and I've been wanting to write something with the Bat Family for so long (I mean, I always imagine what it would be like if I was a member!!!). I'm sorry about the mischaracterization, if any, though I tried hard to grab the characters' essence. It was so much fun to write this and I hope you guys enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it <3

CHAPTER 1

Sometimes, you feel like you spend more time in your head than you do outside. Especially in moments like these.

You sit on the ledge of an old building in Gotham, earpiece plugged in, waiting for the next signal from Oracle. Your new tactical gear still feels too... new. The spandex is too tight, your utility belt is heavier than it appears, the Bat symbol on your chest is a constant reminder of who you are now, and let's not discuss the heels in your boots.

Why did you need them again? Oh, right, the aesthetic - as Dick had so conveniently mentioned.

You exhale, hair flying with the chilly wind. The moon dances across the black, foggy sky. And if you were being honest with yourself, which you rarely are, you had never planned on joining the notorious Bat family.

Apparently, Batman owed your deceased mother a favor, and she had asked him to take care of you once she was dead, which is, by the way, exactly what happens to people who run an illegal drug deal for Black Mask.

You shake your head, flexing your hands at your sides, and the new gloves make a squeaky noise. This isn't what you wanted to think about right now.

The point is, you had never planned on becoming a vigilante. Sure, you did a thing or two now and then, that's how Bruce-Batman had found you. While you were fighting a thug all by yourself and he had taken you in without a second thought.

You weren't even sure what it meant until you were standing in front of Wayne Manor. Bruce Wayne is Batman. Huh, who could've thought?

But even though everything that has happened to you since your mother's death is... bizarre, to say the least. One thing still takes you by surprise, one thing that clashes everything you thought you knew about yourself.

Your own damn feelings.

Your own damn feelings for Jason freaking Todd.

A crunch of gravel behind you has your neck whipping around fast, your muscles coiling for action. You prop one foot up, ready to stand with fists already clenched until the red helmet glints under the moonlight, and despite knowing better, you relax.

And okay, yeah, you summoned him. There you go, thinking about the devil, and the devil appears, or however that saying goes.

Jason tsks, walking over to you, "And I wonder what the Bat sees in you." He remarks, though you don't sense any real judgment in his tone. If you were any more delusional, you'd say he even sounds concerned.

You sit back, your body slumping against the concrete, and Jason takes a seat beside you. You try and fail not to notice how his jacket sleeves are pulled up, how his forearms flex without any effort. You look away.

"I didn't hear you." You mutter, frowning. The mask over your eyes makes them twitch, or maybe it's because of your heart beating faster.

The red helmet tilts in your direction, accompanied by a scoff, "That's pretty much the point. You're in your head, trouble. You need to be more alert."

Trouble. Your breath catches. That stupid nickname. Jason had insisted on calling you that when he saw you take down a man twice your size with a grin on your face for the first time.

He'd whistled lowly with a crooked, amused smile. Then turned to Dick, "She's trouble, this one." Jason had remarked, and for some reason, you felt your stomach lurch; it was a weird feeling, if anything. Like the kind you feel on roller coasters, or when you jump off a building in your dreams.

It wasn't 'butterflies' (as Tim and Steph argued), but more like... fear.

"I was alert." You argue, mocking his scoff and tilt of head with your own, "For actual danger, not you creeping up on me to prove a point."

Jason is wearing a helmet, but you swear, you hear him roll his eyes, "Actual danger? If you knew me, you'd know I fit in the category too well, princess."

Your lips part, and you're glad it's too dark for him to see the way your cheeks heat up.

Princess? Seriously? Who does he think he is?

You immediately pull your lips into a fake smile, "Maybe my mind doesn't register you as a threat. Or, maybe I just didn't hear you. Again - no actual danger."

Jason stares at you for a long moment, all the while your heart rate increases, and then he chuckles. "Your mind doesn't what now? That's the stupidest thing I've heard tonight and I just spent two hours with Dick."

You scoff, offended, "You did not just say that to me."

The helmet tilts again, and you can imagine Jason's smug expression, "Why not? What are you gonna do about it?"

And there it is, the frustration picking at your skin. How can you like someone who makes you want to punch them in the face? You have to be making up things.

"I-" You're interrupted when your comm pings and Oracle's voice cuts through.

"Hood? Eclipse? You two still out?" She asks, and somewhere in the back, you hear what sounds suspiciously like Tim's voice, "They are out together again? I wonder why..."

You roll your eyes, beside you Jason shifts.

"What's up?" He asks into the comms, all business suddenly. You spare him a fleeting glance before looking away again.

"Uh... something is going down by the South Bridge. Since you two are the only ones still out, I want you to check on it once."

Jason and you arrive at the location given by Oracle in about five minutes. Thanks to Jason's reckless driving and ignoring the fact that you almost fell off his bike.

You get down with a huff, brushing dust from your costume. Jason follows suit.

"Not my fault you didn't hold tight enough," He mutters, leaning against his bike, and you don't need to see his face to know he's grinning under his helmet.

Honestly, you don't know why he gets on your nerves so much - oh wait, it's probably the shitty attitude.

You turn to face him, "Not your fault? You drive like you're being chased by zombies."

Jason shrugs, "I drive how it's necessary. We're here, aren't we? And hey, you survived."

"Barely." You mutter, narrowing your eyes at him before thinking better of it and turning around.

Not like you could actually win an argument against Jason Peter Todd.

The location doesn't look shady... mostly. It's an abandoned warehouse, probably just another unsupervised area where illegal shipments take place, but there's something about it that feels... wrong. Maybe it's the vibe. Or maybe... a smell?

You look around. Yeah, you know that smell. It smells like... blood. A lot of it.

You turn to look for Jason, but he's already beside you, arm brushing yours, and your body reacts in less than... acceptable ways. He's tense, the white slits of his helmet fixed at the warehouse.

You step away, planting your feet in the overgrown, muddy grass, but it slips and you lose balance. Damn, heels.

You yelp, hands clawing at the air helplessly, and Jason is quick to bolt forward. He grips your elbow, pulling you flush against him. Your eyes go wide, lips parting in mild shock.

Jason looks down at you, and you can't help but be hyper-aware of the way he almost wraps you in. The scent of gunpowder and leather invades your senses. One of his hands stays on your arm, the other hovering above your waist as if to make sure you're okay. He doesn't ask the words, but you feel them in the way he doesn't let go instantly.

Or not. Because while your heart speeds up faster than his bike does. Jason snickers. Snickers.

"Falling for me already?" He mutters, tilting his head lower.

You plant a palm on his chest, stepping back with an eye roll and a frown, "Real Original, Hood. You torture every poor soul with that line, or did I get lucky?"

Jason lets go, stuffing his hands in his jacket pockets instead, "Oh, you're definitely lucky, trouble. Not everyone gets the special treatment."

You only half hear Jason when you're inspecting the ground where you just slipped. Apparently, it wasn't your heels.

There's blood. You track a trail of it going inside the warehouse. Your heart drops.

"Uh... you might wanna see this." You say, gaze moving from Jason to the warehouse, and then back to the ground.

Jason's eyes follow the trail of blood and he shifts, only slightly, but you notice the way his shoulders tense, the way his hands hover over his holstered guns already.

"Huh..." He exhales, stepping closer, "Looks like we might've stepped onto something messy."

If the situation were any different, you would've rolled your eyes at his choice of words. But all you do right now is try not to lose it.

Well, maybe the others would call this a pleasant welcome into the family.

Thank you for reading. Love you all!

rough sketches for designs of all the pt for the wof au! (also more akechi and better joker here)

thoughts + closeups under the cut

i tried to give proper justification for all the pt to have their codenames here which for a handful of them meant their names are just. shortened versions of something else. so crow is short for crow poison. aka false garlic. its a type of flower :3. i mean theororetically crow would be a valid name but hes a rainwing here and it didnt seem like a very fitting name with that in mind? but theres a couple rainwings named after flowers i think. hes a rainwing for obvious reasons i think. id like to think hed have a very light color palette that shifts to this when he gives up trying to hide who he is. youuu can see that lighter palette in the art i linked earlier.

fox! which is short for snowfox. yes i know snowfox is a real canon name but yknow what else is canon? icewings have a big list of names they go down. so his name is snowfox. i dont have anything else to say here. like ofc hes an icewing hes YUSUKE. id like to think he left the ice kingdom to go to jade mountain (bc is it a wof au without jade mountain) to "broaden his horizons as an artist". which would be how he meets the other guys

skull! is it his real name? hes not telling! i am the least happy with his design tbh.

ORACLE!! her real name is beetle but she likes to go by oracle instead. i struggled a bit on what tribe to make her actually. originally i wanted her to be either part or fully rainwing? because i thought her using her camoflauge to hide from people in crowded places could be fun. but eventually i decided i not to do that. i dont think theres any hybrids in this cast actually? might actually change my mind on that to make noir half leafwing but shh. anyways i think a bug is fitting for her. so she gets to be a hivewing. no abilities for her shes just a little guy

JOKER!! i think it would be fun if joker IS his real name but people think its an alias. his design was easy as shit. ofc hes a nightwing ofc hes got big red stars on his wings hes JOKER. not pictured is morgana also! mona is jokers """pet""" scavenger who speaks dragon. congrats mona you finally get to be human! too bad its in the dragon au. anyways might post a morgana drawing whenever i clean up his design

violet! (named after the violet copper butterfly). her sisters name and the name she uses for a while is rose (named after the common rose butterfly). i ALSO kinda considered her being a rainwing (literally changing herself to look more like her sister) but decided silkwing was a better choice,,,,, im really happy with her design ok

PANTHER!! that is her actual name btw. MY FIRST THOUGHT FOR THIS AU WAS SKYWING ANN I WOULD KILL MYSELF IF SHE WAS ANYTHING ELSE,,,, ik skywings cant have blue eyes unless theyre firescales or sky but shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i wanted to,,,,,, canon is what i want it to be.

queen is short for queenfish! she was a bit of an afterthought sorry </3. but shes a seawing! good for her <3

AND NOIIIRRRR!! i wanted her to be a mudwing as soon as i thought about it for more than a second. design wise i dont have much to say but i think storywise it might be cool if she was an only child and her father (in an incrdible rare move for a mudwing) was actually a present figure in her life. leading her to be kinda isolated from her peers and giving her a big reason to be very attached to him. idk its just thoughts rn. i dont have a clear story in mind yet. anyways those are my dragon thieves i hope you liked them

[zahri-melitor]

So I’ve been skipping over the Power Girl solicits mostly because I bounced hard off Leah Williams’ run, but I just looked at the solicit for #20 because I was trying to check what the exact new name for PG that Williams was using was and…

Oh good, it’s the meanspirited “the fans are being demanding and horrible about the changes made to canon, so watch me rub what I’ve done in their faces” storyline. Seen that one a few too many times between 2014 and 2020 for Barbara Gordon and the concept of Oracle.

(I do think that yes there probably is a good story around PG’s identity issues with regards to names and who is ‘real’ and what choosing your name means, in regards to Kara vs Karen vs Paige. But I also simultaneously despise the flippant way the change occurred, especially given the character is 50 years old and had been using a steady set of Kara and Karen as her personal name and alias names for 47 of those 50 years)

[sketchp00ch]

So I made my very own Vigilante OC!!

I’m still working on her full story and background but all I can say is:

- Minnie was a whistleblower at Arkham while working as a nurse. She vetted out the cruelty and corruption going on in the asylum through the cameras, notes, and from the Rogues themselves while she was healing them to relay all of it to Oracle (Barbara) before almost getting caught and fleeing Arkham as quickly as possible.

- Thanks to Minnie’s whistleblowing, she and many others improved Arkham inside out. They removed Doctor Hugo Strange’s license and arrested him for unethical treatment of the Arkham patients, especially all of the Rogues in his care. (This, however, ended up with her being on Hugo’s blacklist…)

- Minnie eventually (I don’t know how, when, or why yet) joined the Bat Family through Barbara and became a more stealth-reliant vigilante that doesn’t do all the fancy tricks, bells, and whistles. She has powerful legs for kicking, but all she does is sneak into places to take essential clues or evidence without being spotted and clean up afterward.

- Her design and alias name are based on the Painted Vesper Bat 🦇

- Minnie is more aligned in the BTAS Universe than any other universe. (JL/JLU, too maybe.)

About Robin…

Robin is light, Robin is hope, Robin is magic.

Batman is darkness, Batman is vengeance, Batman is justice.

Dick was light, hope and magic. Jason was light, hope and magic. So was Tim. So was Steph, for however short.

Do you know who isn’t light, hope and magic?

Damian f***ing al Ghul.

Damian is dark, broody, full of hate and vengeance. Sounds familiar?

Am I saying he’s evil, tainted, or irredeemable? No. Am I saying he is too full of unaddressed trauma to be Robin? Yes! Every Robin before him had trauma in some shape or form, but his is the one unaddressed by the writers. So, yes, Gotham needs Batman, Batman needs Robin and we already have a perfectly Robin-shaped child to fill the role. (I’ve already reblogged the whole post about that, but for good measure, here:

So, who should Damian be and what happens with my precious headcanon identities Cardinal and Crow?

Robin is Dick’s legacy and Dick’s alone. It was why he was so mad that Bruce gave it to Jason without asking — Robin was Dick’s mom’s pet name for him. Robin’s colours are the Grayson’s colours and the whole Robin identity revolves around Dick’s family, their deaths and his attempt at avenging them. Batman is Bruce’s, Robin is Dick’s, but Bruce forgot that, thinking Robin was Batman's. And he passed it along, making Robin a tainted legacy where Batman is a symbol of darkness. Fitting, yes, and morbidly ironic, just as Gotham likes it.

So now, to keep the legacy, the city keeps spewing children who crawled out of various holes to fight against the darkness, inspired by the hope and light and magic that Robin is. The world tells them to give in to the darkness, to give up the light, and they spit in the world's face in defiance. (Another thing Damian isn’t. He’s a spoiled prince in both worlds, trained to be a weapon. He didn’t have the chance to choose to fight for light and hope, because the choice was made for him)

So, once Robin (Tim) becomes an adult, I think he should break the tainted cycle. Just like Tim was Duke’s Robin, I think there will be other children inspired by him and for whom the only Robin will be Tim, too young to know of Robin's messy history. Children who refuse to back down and it is either train them before they go out to fight, or pretend you can stop them and they go out untrained to die. They may not become Robin, but maybe they can all be robins, if the idea of many street children in bird costumes infesting the streets to fight crime under the watchful eye of the Red mama bird (since I'm sure at least half of them will be Alley kids and everyone knows that Robin and hurting children are not allowed in Red Hood's territory) is appealing to anyone.

Meanwhile, as Robin continues as a legacy, Tim will probably also take a more secretive alias — Cardinal. Where Robin will be loud and funny and a bit cheeky, Cardinal will be invisible and silent. Both will be dangerous, sharp and precise, but Cardinal will be more like a dark mirror hidden in the shadows that Robin’s light casts. Because Tim is both and his work in the underground world cannot be associated with Robin.

Alternatively, Tim could take the mantle of Crow as a secondary occupation and work exclusively as an informant and hacker. A shadowy presence in the internet almost on par with Oracle and her "unofficial rival", if the rumours spread among the Bats’ enemies by O and C themselves are to be believed. Again, no connection to Robin, who will still be active and well in the field.

If Tim decides to create Cardinal, that may leave Crow to Damian if he does not want to be called Batboy, but somehow Crow does not fit him. He could also decide to go all in and call himself Shadow to mock or acknowledge his past. He could be Echo, a silly little reference to the echolocation of bats. There are many names under which Damian can thrive, but I don’t think Robin is one of them.

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

Makuta Ocs: The Miserix Martyrs

Oh yeah, they're back, and with a special set that were actually some of the first I came up with, but never got around to posting about.

It can be hard to remember, given the long history of their later actions, that the Brotherhood of Makuta were not originally a malevolent faction, far from it. Under Miserix, the Makuta helped bring life to an infant universe, turning barren rocks into vibrant ecosystems and creating a sturdy balanced biosphere.

But of course, such things did not last, and an ambitious Makuta by the name of Teridax seized power and usurped Miserix. All of the Brotherhood stood with Teridax, though some would come to regret that choice.

All but five, who stood with their original leader and their people's original mission. For this, they were executed.

May be they remembered here, even if their names aren't.

A Makuta who assumed the alias of "The Shepherdess". She ingratiated herself into many of the early civilizations and societies that began springing up in the young universe, providing them with rahi species she created that could serve as livestock and beasts of burden. The Mahi is one of her most prolific creations. Stood with Miserix because she knew that the direction that Teridax was pulling the Brotherhood into would bring destruction and ruin onto the peoples and groups she helped nurture.

A Makuta who served as the Brotherhood's first oracle. Their preferred method of diving the will of Mata Nui and the future was through use of bones of the "First Rahi", creations of the great beings. They also practiced seeing the future in the stars, and are said to have passed that knowledge down to the first Matoran astrologers. Stood with Miserix because they saw a vision where Teridax becoming leader would lead the destruction of the universe and the annihilation of the Makuta as a species.

A Makuta who was known as a great healer, using the myriad of abilities his species possessed to aid and cure physical ailments and sicknesses. Recognizing he could not be everywhere at once, he created a species of humanoid, one-eyed rahi that were also great healers. The legendary Keetongu was a member of said species. Stood with Miserix because he viewed Teridax's ambition and the other Makuta siding with it as "A sickness that would consume them all".

A Makuta who was an extremely prolific rahi creator in the Matoran Universe's earliest days, particularly when it came to sea life. For a time, A large majority of aquatic rahi were species they created, though they were quite different to the marine rahi that where commonplace by the end of the Matoran Universe. Unfortunately, as time went on, many of their creations went extinct, outcompeted by newer species. Stood with Miserix because Teridax's new "direction" felt like a violation of the Brotherhood's original mission to them.

A Makuta who worked closely with the Shepherdess, though helping more with agriculture and society building, creating plants and material that would be of great use to these burgeoning cultures. As the Matoran grew more into sapience, she taught them many different artisan and crafting skills, from ceramics to weaving. Stood with Miserix for much of the same reasons the Shepherdess did.

There were two different people from different leagues who were rivals since the first ever year. The couple were in love and conceived a child, which was a baby girl who they named Y/N. However, the two leagues found about their secret affair that made the mother's father kill her husband. After she found out about the murder, the mother decided to go after her father and kill him the exact same way, but more painful and slower. This caused the mother to be sentenced to death while she was pregnant with Y/N's little brother, which made her give away her infant daughter to her trusted friend, Lady Shiva. Before her mother was executed, she gave Y/N a handmade stuffed animal that is a purple bat. She named her new best friend, Batsie.

As Y/N was sent to live under Lady Shiva's roof, she was forced to train, study, and do many chores while she was still three years old along with Deathstroke. However, she had an actual human friend named Matcha who helped her show off what the woman who was taking care of her about her true colors by making the young girl into a perfect weapon and helped her escape right after that.

When Y/N was four, she arrived at Gotham City and was wandering around before she arrived at an orphanage building where she was greeted by a woman who was called Miss Wells. Ever since then, she learned how the world was like and lived there before a man named Bruce Wayne came in and brought her to his home, which will be her new life.

IT'S TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMEEEE

(in mariah carey voice.)

welcome to an ari yap session. this time about his hsr-sona, swallowtail. (the majority of his lore is on discord.. can't be bothered to find it rn. but expect it.)

his important details are in the above google doc but i feel the need to mention some extra details that aren't there. (swalmedia [my cringey little drawings of him + the gacha life stuff] included under the cut)

- he's a stellaron hunter (public alias: aponia), and he acts as the "cleanup crew" when the hunters get a bit too silly (/hj) and leave the site with bodies everywhere. he's in charge of the evidence disposal and etc.

- everyone assumes that he's a girl when he's with the stellaron hunters. when they first meet, march 7th calls him "miss aponia" lmao.

- his main thing as a sh is a special perfume that makes people sleepy (he wears a special gas mask so it doesn't affect him -- the mask also has a voice changer embedded into it so nobody knows it's him)

there's other stuff too but i'll post that stuff later (mostly homeworld stuff etcetcetc)

tags: @drowning-in-cabbages, @reminscingskylight , @robins-s0ngbird, @blak-ie, @serendipminie (I HOPE YOU GUYS DON'T MIND THE TAGS.. IF YOU MIND, I'LL STOP TAGGING HCSGVD I'M SO SORRY--)

6th image is the most recent one (also his actual official canon design),, some of these were drawn months ago actually. i'll make a ref sheet for him when i have motivation, i PROMISE. sigh.)

Imagine: Apollo Watching From Mount Olympus and Falling in Love With You

Summary: He's been watching you for a long time. He's been interesting in you the day his eyes meet your body. So, maybe he could fall in love with you. Pairing: Apollo x Reader Word Count: ~1,400 Warnings: First love, divine longing, fate vs free will

The sun never tires of rising, just like Apollo.

At such times, he prefers to retreat and rest on the clouds of Olympus, where the gods forget to look. He observes the world because it brings him a moment of inspiration.

That's when he sees you.

At first, he doesn't realize you were different. You were just a mortal walking along the edge of one of Apollo's temples. Your hands held a simple offering, and he heard your voice humming a tune no one else seemed to hear.

The second day, you returned. Just like the third. It became a ritual. You fascinated him.

Apollo leaned over to observe you, sitting on the steps of the Temple of the Sun. He saw then that you were reading an old poem by a young Corinthian poet.

At that moment, he felt something strange within him: curiosity, then intrigue, and finally desire.

Apollo has many supporter all over the world, including musicians, oracles, poets, and lovers. A person's beauty has always inspired him, and you were right in front of him, like a new muse for his future songs. And it was driving him completely mad.

One morning, he decided to make a decision and wished to meet you. He descended from the clouds of Mount Olympus to come to Earth. He approached discreetly behind you to examine you more closely.

"Madam, may I recommend these flowers, freshly picked for you?" the young demigod offered like a gentleman.

You jumped, surprised by the presence of a stranger. "Who are you?" you asked.

"Alias," Apollo said, giving his false identity.

You thanked Alias ​​for giving you a beautiful flower and took it in your hand, a genuine smile appearing on your lips. Your smile made his heart beat faster, a feeling, he hadn't felt in a very long time.

"My name is…" you said kindly. "It's a beautiful name," Apollo replied, making you blush. "Would you do me the honor of walking with me sometime?" the young demigod offered.

"It would be a pleasure," you replied, making the young man smile. A breeze blew around them.

Apollo extended his arm, and you gladly took it, and the young couple began their walk.

It was a sweet moment for the both of you, and Apollo felt almost grateful to have finally met you.

Days passed, and your relationship had grown enormously. You were friends first.

One day, under a starry night, you were sitting next to each other, savoring the moment. Apollo made the first move and placed his hand on yours. They touched as if they were intimately connected.

Slowly but surely, Apollo leaned down and stole your first kiss. You were surprised, by the gesture, but not too astonished. "Aren't you scared?" Apollo asked. "No, just surprised," you replied, then you echoed his gesture and kissed him on the mouth.

Your two tongues mingled perfectly, as if they formed a perfect unity.

That day, the moon finally saw two beings united as if there were no tomorrow.

A/N : Here's the first imagine of Apollo. I Hope u like it . It is my first of him and I hope I don't made mistake in my sentence!!

Thinking about a reverse robins au where...

Talia leaves Damian, age 8, with Bruce due to infighting in the League of Assassins. Damian is Batman's Shadow until he and Bruce have a falling out over Bruce refusing to admit the Teen Titans to the League. Damian, age 18, takes on the name Nightwing and moves to New York to lead the Titans with Jon.

When Arthur Brown is killed, Crystal overdoses and Stephanie, age 12,  becomes Spoiler to avenge her parents. Tim, age 11, sees her while stalking Batman and provides her with pictures and intel under the alias Shutter. Bruce catches them one night, and Tim blackmails him into mentoring them.

When Bruce realizes Stephanie is living on the street, he decides to adopt her. Jack and Janet are their typical absentee selves, so Tim's adoption remains unofficial. Damian, age 19, resents Tim and Stephanie so much that he refuses to let them train with the Titans.

The Joker kidnaps Tim, age 14, while he's on patrol and turns him into Joker Jr. Steph, age 15, goes solo to save him and Joker makes Tim beat her with a crowbar, then locks them in the warehouse with a bomb. Stephanie dies trying to save Tim, then is resurrected and taken by Talia al Ghul, who wants to use her as leverage to win Bruce and Damian back.

Tim, now paralyzed, becomes the Oracle, saying that there's no Shutter without Spoiler. Unbeknownst to anyone, he gets to work trying to clone Stephanie.

Damian, age 23, blames himself for Stephanie's death and moves back to Gotham. While hunting the Joker, Nightwing runs into Jason, age 13, who's working for Two Face. He finds out that Jason is trying to support his family - Catherine is still battling her drug addiction and Willis was left wheelchair-bound after working for Two-Face. When Damian looks at Jason, he sees another desperate teenager that he failed, and he's determined not to make the same mistakes again. He takes Jason under his wing, training (and paying) him to fight against crime rather than for it. Jason takes on the mantle of Michael (he is going to be the guardian angel of Crime Alley. He's going to defend them from every threat.)

Tim, age 15, finds out about Jason and comes as close to a villain origin story as he gets. He thinks that Damian is trying to replace Steph, and accuses him of grooming another martyr to die for Gotham. When Damian won't back down, Tim insists on being included in Jason's training and swears to pull the plug the *second* he thinks Damian is putting Jason in undue danger. Training Jason together gives Damian and Tim the common goal they need to build a functional relationship for the first time.

Stephanie, age 19, comes back to Gotham as the Red Hood to kill the Joker, only to find that he's been missing for years. Still, she's plenty annoyed with the new street kid who's stolen her place. (Damian wouldn't even LOOK at her, but he'll take this stupid kid to a baseball game? With Tim?)

She and Batman dance their dance for a few months, then she finds out that Jason isn't an orphan. That Bruce paid for rehab so his mom could get clean, then found his dad a job so they could move somewhere safe. And it's just... Where was Bruce before? Where was he when her mom overdosed? When her dad was killed? Where was he when Tim was taken and twisted, when he was beating her to death for that fucking clown, when she tried to shield him from the blast even as he was strangling her? Where was Bruce then?

Red Hood kidnaps Catherine and lures Jason, age 16, to the warehouse where the Joker killed her. She reveals his secret identity to Catherine, then beats the brakes off of him.(In another world, Sheila Haywood smoked a cigarette while Jason was beaten. In this one, Catherine Todd begs for his life.) There's a bomb because there always is. Because there has to be.

Batman isn't too late. He saves Jason and Catherine, but Hood gets away. Catherine begs Jason to hang up his suit, but Willis stops her. He tells Jason that he's proud of him, and glad that he's chosen a better path than Willis had.

Nightwing, age 26, hunts down the Red Hood while Oracle, age 18, puts together the pieces of her identity. Nightwing catches up to Hood her in one of her safe houses and has a very dramatic monologue, as a treat. ("The last person who left my siblings trapped with a bomb thought it was funny, too. But he wasn't laughing when I was done with him. I wonder if you'll have that same look on your face when I kill you.") He nearly kills her, but is stopped by Oracle.

Tim drags Stephanie back home kicking and screaming. After months of therapy, healing, and screaming at Bruce, she allows herself to be brought back into the fold. She and Jason will never be friends, but they've made amends enough to coexist. Stephanie takes up the Spoiler mantle again.

To celebrate, the family goes to Haly's Circus. The Grayson's die, and Bruce takes in Dick, age 9. Dick discovers their secret identities and dubs himself Robin. He's an angry little gremlin determined to murder Zucco, and Bruce feels like he's been here before a few times already.

Later, there's a rumor of another Spoiler running around. Stephanie, age 22, is not prepared to find tiny Barbara Gordon, age 10, running around by herself, trying to catch bad guys. She starts chasing Barbara around, trying to talk her out of heroics. ("Is this how Bruce felt? Oh, hell, I'm too young to be a mother.") She finally relents and starts training Barbara herself. ("But you can't steal my name, kid. Gotta come up with your own."  "Fine. I'll be Batgirl, then."  "Batgirl, huh? Alright, let's see if you can live up to it.")

I'm just so 😩 about them

[OC] Clair Fortuna

She finally has a name!!! ...okay so Clair Fortuna is a fake name, but she's a fortune teller /cough/ oracle that ran away from her temple so she goes by her alias artistic name, of course!

Clair is a fun-loving free spirit, who spends her time and powers on either helping people or scamming the rich. So, unsurprisingly, she's also a bit of a little shit.

I hope you'll treat her kindly~
