The agent of chaos is coming again! To help people complete the RPF Summer Camp challenge, I decided to come to your inbox with the next question:
In an omegaverse setting, what would every rider be? (Please be free to include other designations as enigma (above alphas and sometimes described as able to change other people's designations) or you can make your own!)
Please share these ask so we can all get more badges and make this more fun. Also, feel free to ignore this if you want. Agent of chaos says goodbye.
doing this by couples i personally rpf bc assigning maverick a fanfic designation unprovoked is funny but too much work. i need a STORY… honestly if the story/dynamic first these are all mostly malleable to me lmao. anyways:
rosquez- vale alpha who got microaggressed about “being an omega” (looking skinny and girlish) as a kid but swears he didn’t super care (internalized just a little bit for sureee) and marc the omega who is very obviously an omega but dodges questions about his dynamic like crazy. for sure on suppressants for sure very happy he’s hung so he can avoid stereotypes lmao (he’s showing that thing off !!!!) for sure like. not personally ashamed but also not out bc he doesn’t wanna deal with it after a very traumatic early 20s, press-wise. eventually alludes to it in ALL IN and evrybody is like oh. they were fucking. but marc won’t confirm or deny or outright say even though there’s a lingering shot on the bite he had high up on his neck during the sepang press conference. he kind of regrets this immediately imo lmao but maybe later in various fits of cunty pique is like well i’m the only omega champion :) (crazy flashing cameras) (pecco sweating hard right next to him) and vale is like ANYWAYS—
franky/alex- alpha4beta and alex feels WEIRD ABOUT ITTTTT bc of his brother baggage :) wishing he was an omega so he could just fit into all these experiences and into a relationship with franky and have any idea of all of these cues he’s “missing” that his brother just knows instinctively. 8000 misinterpretions of alpha/omega relationships bc marc’s love life is a mess and he’s insane, but then marc also spent a lot of time hiding his dynamic/has a terrible breakup and alex is like well now i feel like shit for wanting this !!!! botched hookup where alex breaks out some fake omega hormone and franky is like um hey can we talk about this? and alex just immediately breaks up w franky trying VERY hard not to cry. goes icy marquez face and leaves. thinks about who he’s spending his ruts with nonstop :(
pedrenzo - dani alpha lmao like so obviously. only guy on earth who could get marc to ride BEHIND him on a scooter like. not even a question to me. anyways jorge trying TOO hard to project alpha but he’s an omega and hates it. dani figures this out later and is like OHHHHH okay i will take care of you forever
pecco/luca- luca beta top ? i think luca would have a lot of fun/angst trying to like. figure out how to take care of pecco’s omega ass during heat without any instincts to fall back on/ while pecco refuses to go to an alpha bc it freaks him out badddd… also weird w brother stuff in a similar but less potent way than alex. like luca has a plan lmao. hard cut to pecco’s dui and then him comparing himself to marc and wanting to hit himself very hard over the head with a 2x4 but luca is taking SUCH good care of him and he wants it so badly and he’s caught up in about 8 different contradictions on how things “should” be done…
bez/cele- bez alpha but doesn’t like it. truly feels so much pressure to live up to that and won’t (likes pecco bc pecco doesn’t gaf/likes that bez treats him NORMAL). some half hearted alpha posturing and trying to go to vale for alpha advice (vale who does the alpha thing kinda effortlessly just confused as hell about bez… it’s like his motorcycle advice he gives that they can’t actually DO bc it requires some intrinsic talent prereqs) until cele gets older and then he can and GOFREE and get topped and not feel weird about it. cele beta or omega or even alpha tbh im not sure but he honestly does not care. he does not care. he thinks bez is neat and thats where it ends. pure id. GREAT for bez to let go and be sexy and fit as many roles as he wants to…

Laundry Day
Summary: It's laundry day for the bad boys and Jimmy decides he wants to help out. Grian and Joel think this is a great opportunity for a little teasing.
Word Count: 1631
AO3 Link
Please enjoy this short but very sweet and fluffy fic!
______________________________________________________________
“Ugh, laundry day.” Joel said in disgust as he placed his hamper full of clean clothes on his bed. “Literally the worst part about being in college.”
Grian looked over from where he was setting down his own hamper, raising a brow at him with a faint smirk. “Are you saying your mom did all your laundry for you?” He said with a slight laugh.
Joel’s face grew red. “No! Obviously I’m not that bad.” He glared and Grian as Grian only continued to laugh at how offended Joel had gotten. “I meant how we have to go all the way across the blummin’ building in order to wash our clothes. It’s such a hassle.”
Jimmy looked between the two humans as he swung his feet, sitting on Joel’s nightstand as usual. He, personally, had been to the laundry room in the dorm building a handful of times before, in order to get some fabric. But he had soon realized all the good stuff was only there when there were a lot of humans around and Jimmy hadn’t wanted to take the risk. Still though, he had been there enough times to know what they were talking about.
“It is a really long way.” Jimmy spoke up, gaining his humans’ attention. “Even cutting through the walls, it probably takes me…an hour? Maybe a little bit more?” It had been a while since he took a trip over that way. Well, and a while since he’s been in the walls in general. But he was pretty sure that’s how long it took him last time.
“An hour?!” Joel looked at Jimmy with wide eyes. “Geez, it only takes us 5, maybe 10 minutes to head over there.”
Grian had also been shocked but his shock soon fell away to more laughter. “See Joel, it could be a lot worse.”
“Yeah, yeah.” Joel muttered, turning back to his clothes and taking one shirt off the top of the pile and starting to fold it. Jimmy watched him do so with rapt attention. This was not the first laundry day he was with his humans for, but he still found himself interested in the giant yet familiar motions. And they were familiar to him now, after watching them do laundry every other week for the last few months, to the point where he could probably help fold the clothes as well.
And that’s what he was thinking about.
“Can I help?” Jimmy asked and both humans paused and turned toward him once more. Joel raised an eyebrow at him and looked back and forth between him and the clothes he was folding.
“Uh…I don’t know if-”
“Sure.” Grian said, cutting Joel off as he crossed the room. Joel sent him a confused look. Jimmy was way too small to be able to help properly and they both knew that. But at Grian’s mischievous smirk, Joel started to understand what he was getting at. Joel felt his own smirk start to form at the thought of some harmless teasing of their borrower friend.
Now on the same page, Grian reached down and scooped Jimmy up before bringing him to his own bed. Joel paused in his own task to follow them and watch what was about to happen. Jimmy slipped off Grian’s hand and onto the bed, next to the large pile of clean clothes. The very few folded ones that Grian had already done were in their own, neater, pile on the other side of the bed.
“Alright, here you go.” Grian said as he grabbed a random shirt of his from the pile and laid it out for Jimmy on the bed.
Jimmy sized it up, circling it a bit to try and figure out where to start. Obviously the shirt was far bigger than he was but it was just a simple t-shirt. Surely he could pick up and drag and move the sections he needed to at the very least, right?
He went to the end of the sleeve and grabbed the edge. He took a deep breath, bracing himself, before lifting and pulling at the sleeve. It was a bit difficult, but sure enough, Jimmy was able to drag it along, albeit a bit slower than he would have liked. As he dragged the fabric from one end to the other, he was very aware of Grian and Joel watching him. He glanced in their direction and felt some pride swell up in him when he noticed they actually looked impressed.
After a couple of minutes, Jimmy made his way to the other end of the shirt, putting the sleeve on top of the other one. The shirt was now halfway folded but Jimmy was already feeling accomplished.
“Where did that strength come from?” Grian teased. Jimmy rolled his eyes and decided to ignore the comment as he went to the top of Grian’s shirt to finish folding it.
However, now that it was folded one way, the fabric bulk was now doubled and it was a lot harder for Jimmy to lift and drag. He gripped the edge, narrowing his eyes at the shirt as he thought about how to solve this. He decided on picking up as much of the edge as he could, backing away further and then lifting up and pulling back with all his might.
He managed to gain enough momentum that the shirt started to come up. Unfortunately, Jimmy had no control over it past that point and it came back down, right on top of him. He let out a little yelp as he was forced down from the weight. “Darn it!” Jimmy exclaimed, though it came out muffled due to the fabric. He pressed his hand against the shirt and kicked at it but it wouldn’t budge.
“Need some help there?” He heard Joel ask, barely able to conceal the fact that he was trying hard not to laugh. Jimmy huffed.
“Yes, please.” Jimmy said as he managed to scoot out enough to poke his head out. Though just as soon as he had done so, he saw Grian with a large bundle of clothes in his hand, holding it up and over him. Jimmy’s eyes widened. “Wait-!”
But it was too late, with a large grin from Grian, he released the clothes and it fell right on top of Jimmy. “Hey!” Jimmy said, his voice even more muffled now that there were multiple layers of clothes. Despite that though, he definitely heard Grian and Joel break out into laughter.
Jimmy grumbled to himself though he really should have expected something like this. Knowing Grian and Joel weren’t going to do anything at the moment, their laughter still ringing out loudly, Jimmy tried his best to move through the folds of cloth and find a way out. He managed to start moving, but he could no longer tell which way was up or down and moving against the thick fabrics was starting to take a toll on him.
“Guys, seriously!” Jimmy whined and he finally heard the laughter start to die down.
“Alright, alright. Sit still, you’re just going to get yourself even more stuck.” Grian said and then Jimmy felt the clothes start to shift. Jimmy stopped and waited and after only a few moments, Grian’s fingers were parting away the clothes within his sights. The fingers carefully came over to him and grazed his legs before pausing, pulling back slightly. They carefully went back down though a second later, grazing over his body again. The large fingers going up from his legs to his side before they curled around him in a gentle grip and pulled him out.
Jimmy blinked as he was brought back into the light, glaring up at Grian and Joel as soon as he oriented himself. Grian kept him in a fist for a moment longer before opening up his hand and letting him slide onto his open palm. Grian was still grinning that same stupid grin Jimmy saw before having all the clothes dropped on him, completely ignoring Jimmy’s glare.
“You guys are the worst.” Jimmy said, as deadpan as he could.
“We know.” Grian said, amused, bringing down a finger to ruffle Jimmy’s hair with. Jimmy swatted at Grian’s finger, trying to fix his hair as soon as Grian let up.
“So, did you still want to help?” Joel asked, leaning in closer with an equally stupid smirk on his face.
Jimmy huffed and turned away from both humans, crossing his arms at the same time. “No, you can do your laundry without my help.”
“Aw come on, don’t be like that.” Joel said, quickly scooping Jimmy up from his spot on Grian’s hand and immediately poking at him with his free hand. “You actually did pretty good in the beginning. Maybe you can stick with folding socks.” Joel said with a slight laugh.
“Nope! You lost your chance.” Jimmy said, trying to push away Joel’s finger. Unfortunately, Joel wasn’t letting up, still prodding his side with a smile.
“You’re not actually upset though, right?” Grian asked, his tone was still light but Jimmy could feel the seriousness behind his words.
Jimmy sighed but let a small smile fall onto his lips. “No, I’m not.” Jimmy admitted. He would have played the part of being annoyed longer but it seemed like Grian had needed the reassurance.
Grian let out a small sigh of relief before his grin widened once again. He reached over and also poked Jimmy in the side. “Good, then maybe you could try again! I’m sure this time you’ll get it.”
Jimmy knew all too well that if he tried again that the same exact thing would take place. So he sent a smile Grian’s way and laughed. “Not a chance.”

you make really good points, I think I used the term karmic wrong sorry. I think of it more as not how I personally think he deserved all that happened to him (which thinking back os exactly what karma means, I messed up sorry), but as his fate being directly tied/parallel to anyas. I handnt noticed the toxicity of jimmy and curlys relationship, from the first playthrough I watched and the first interactions I had w fandom I saw so many ppl just. dismiss the terror Anya went through and focus too much on him as the "ultimate victim" and that just didn't sit well w me. I really dislike seeing ppl go "oh well nothing could've been done" I think it's much more complex than that. also I forgot to mention in the last ask that I really appreciate you bringing the point that this game isn't just about the harm of patriarchy but also very very critical to capitalism, I haven't seen too many ppl touch on this. I hadn't thought too deeply about how it makes "he deserved to become disabled as punishment" come up and I agree that's really messed up. I'll try watching a playthrough again with all of this in mind. but either way thanks! I really appreciate your answer 🫶🏼
I guess this is just part of being in a fandom like this. I've noticed a lot of people don't actually see posts outside of their curated view. So some people only get like anya posting or jimmy or curly and it can make it seem like that is what is saturating the conversation.
I mainly just follow the general tags and look for anything new because I'm like obsessed but I know some are only looking for what they want or believe to be the case and can get weird about other ideas.
Sorry if I came off mean its just a last few of the asks have been like circular conversations like this and its not draining per say but seeing all the nuance and details get overlooked to fit a straightforward and basic narrative really sucks cause there's a lot to explore character and theme wise.
#its like idk i feel like im yapping about the same stuff over and over and over again cause people confuse simple on paper with simple in#execution or like without the human factor like idk sometimes to humanzie Anya people dehumanize the other characters to an extent#which is also part of the systemic problem because by dehumanizing people you take away from the awareness like idk the statements#that curly was the captain and just a guy like have to exist together hes like an okay find decent even good captain just not great#hes not exceptional and i think a lot of people are acting like the game said he is when thats just jimmy like Swansea and Anya see that he#just a guy under everything else hence why they dont feed into the vitriol jimmy tries to serve about him crashing the ship and how they#talk to him pre crash even with anya i feel like people are so focused on trying to see what jimmy doesnt that they are adding intention w#where there isnt not even on like she cant be this scale more so you are treating this like everyone in this game is doing some secret gran#gambit when they are just trying to surviv in really back circumstances like having anya respond to jimmys behaviro through the#fawn effect isnt making her a weak depiction its a real response that can coexist with purposeful action because she is clearly scared of#Jimmy even if she hates and thinks he's incompentent like shes not gonna roll over for him but shes gonna be docile in his presence so he#doesnt create a reason in his head to lash out at her like people simply cannot combine concepts to create the complex responses we see in#the game and idkn why its so hard because not every statement contridicts like Jimmy is a monsterous asshole can exist with how#systematic oppression and social enabling create/allow people like him to do their worse cause at the end of the day he chose to do#everything he did despite other options vs the others trying to figure out the best option for all whether that was the best or not like#he dug his own grave vs the others sorta being lined up in front of theirs and shot like this is more interesting to me than him just being#like idk cartoonishly evil and gross and why cant concepts stakes like fitting aspects together is fun its like the worlds shitties puzzle#mouthwashing#mouthwashing game#anon#ask#ur fine anon im just insane and get frustrated easily when i think im explaining something bad

so like usually when headmates aren't in front they tend to be Asleep and coming into front is a lot like waking up (not always but usually) but. our last fronter kinda. didn't leave front before falling asleep. so now it feels like Most of front is taken up by someone who Is Not Aware and everyone else is trying to like. push them out of front so we can be alert and actually able to think but it's Not Working
#it feels like we just can't think like. brain is so quiet because it just feels asleep#we're trying to have a serious conversation with someone who hasn't fronted in a few weeks like. catching him up on Events and stuff#but every few seconds our brain just Stops and we have to scramble to find our train of thought again#i think this has happened before but we still haven't figured out how to fix it#like the guy who is asleep just will NOT wake up we've been trying since last night but he won't respond#which is Weird like usually when someone leaves front specifically to sleep we can call on them from front#and they'll at least like wake up for a few seconds to be like. i dont feel like fronting rn let me sleep#but he's IN FRONT and still we can't do that like he's just not responding#so we just have his insys partner in front laying next to him and waiting until he wakes up#but gideon like. Needs to have this conversation like he's kinda confused and we need to explain some modern shit bc he's from the 1890s#but he can't fit in front rn bc we're in an Only Two People Can Fit In Front moment rn and that's. being taken up#we can't even get the sleeping guy OUT of front just to have this conversation like its just not working

Mfs can't understand a blunt mf they always gotta try and read between the lines or straight up deny the words you're saying and deny how you feel
#I just woke up so Imma overshare without worrying abt it lmao#like yeah people should be wary there are some messed up people out there but like#I'm being straight up with you I do not have the energy to keep up a lie and I just think it is much easier to have clear communication#people just instantly assume that I'm up to something or not being sincere they don't even give me a chance#bcuz if they did they would instantly be able to tell that I am just like that and I am being as straight up as I possibly can#people just aren't use to that ig#¯\_(ツ)_/¯ that's why I just assume everyone is telling the truth to me and if they did lie my trust in them would break thru those lies#they will eventually tell me the truth if they feel they can trust me and if they don't then that is their business#if someone spends all their time formulating lies for me then that is /their/ energy wasted. not mine lmao#just like let go bro it ain't a big deal to just say stuff straight up you just gotta figure out the right ways to say stuff is all#ya just gotta be real with urself and sometimes shit it confusing af and that is normal brains tend to just fuck around#situations aren't black and white so you might seem hypocritical but again that's life#the best you can do is show how you feel thru actions when words fail you#and people might not understand you but at least you know how you are and you either accept it or make efforts to get better#~.~ me when I get too into it listen I got a little sibling who doesn't understand lots of stuff like I'm trying to teach them things#so I kinda go into this mode a lot of just like trying to explain stuff mostly abt understanding emotions and that other people feel things#I also talk abt this stuff with my other sibling but they are older so it's usually a lot of trying to figure out brain stuff#and trying to come to an understand etc etc I like to talk about these types of things and I might not have all the answer but like#I try. it doesn't work for everyone but hopefully it can at least help people discover what DOES help them#like it might seem like I value honesty a lot but I honestly don't care if people lie to me that is their business ✌️😋#like it only bothers me when it's obvious like Oh I didn't put that dish there I put it somewhere else Well buddy ur the only other person#who else did it or like Oh I didn't say anything I didn't say a word and it's like Buddy I know you did it just own up it's over with#people lie a lot in an attempt to avoid getting in trouble and specifically people getting angry at them but like I'm not the type to argue#I'm not gonna get mad and if I do I'll cool down pretty easily as long as we actually talk things out but like I don't get mad often#I don't really mind most things like if you talk shit behind my back that's not my business lmao just goes to show ur own character#like so many things are not my problem and simply show ur own judge of character#if you don't like me simply don't talk to me 😌 it's really not a big deal I don't mind at all#anyway I ramble... I could likely ramble more but I assume Imma run outta tag space soon

another random thing that stands out to me rewatching Steven Universe as an adult:
throughout the show there's this clear Vibe that Steven has inherited some big magical destiny, right? and it makes sense narratively: he's the son of Rose Quartz, leader of the rebellion, now being raised by her friends who were the last remaining survivors of an interstellar war. he's like a human child in most ways, except he has magical powers that start to become more obvious as he's getting older. no one like him has ever existed before. it's a big deal. raising him and figuring out how he's going to grow is its own unique challenge, because nobody knows what to expect. so of course there's this magical destiny vibe, given all that.
What's interesting to me, though, is that this magical destiny is in no way literally, physically present in the story, it's just something everyone kinda feels. Like, there's not some ancient prophecy about a half-gem, half-human savior. He's not the Chosen One in any literal sense, he just happens to give off Chosen One vibes. And I say that's interesting because it means that the fact he was kinda raised with this Chosen One vibe is completely a decision everyone around him made, for better or for worse. And the show is aware of this, because the weight of Rose's legacy and everyone's expectations of him is a constant theme, and as Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl all grow and develop, they also realize the downsides of them putting those expectations on a child. Like, Steven spends his whole childhood being told about how great Rose was, and how because he's inherited her gem he will probably inherit her powers - and that's not necessarily a bad thing. Imagine how awful things could have been if Steven had no exposure to the Gems and no knowledge of what they were or how they worked, and then his powers started coming in? It was hard enough even when he was surrounded by the most qualified Gem Experts on Earth. But being primed for all of this "you're going to have your mother's magical powers" stuff put a heavy weight on his shoulders, and then the fact that nobody else quite knew how his abilities worked meant he was constantly faced with the adults in his life looking to him with concern because they didn't know what was happening with him. That's gotta leave an impression on a kid - and, well, throughout the show and especially in SU Future we definitely see that it does.
I like the way the show handles the pressure that's put on him, and the fact that everyone is just... trying their best in a completely unprecedented situation. Nobody knows what to do or how to raise this kid, and that inevitably causes problems but everyone is trying. And Steven can feel that everyone is trying without knowing what to do and he just wants to help and not be a burden and none of his caretakers have said that he's a burden but he can feel everyone's confusion and concern and the expectations he's not living up to and he cares so much, about everyone, about everything. He's in an extremely unique position that grants him opportunities to help that nobody else has, and he feels like he's failing everyone if he can't fulfill that, and in the end it never should have been his job to fix things but somebody had to try. Somebody had to try, and he was one of the only people with the ability to stop the Diamonds, stop the war, stop the lies, stop his world and everyone on it from being destroyed... and he was just a kid.
#i feel so protective of this kid watching as an adult like holy shit#so much terrible shit happens to him. it's nobody's fault. it's everybody's fault.#it's destiny but it's a choice. it's necessary but it's really not. it's all about steven but it never actually was.#the show handles the contradictory nature of things well i think. everyone's feelings and relationships are complex and nuanced#ghost speaks#steven universe

so what if. and hear me out. i made my own au for shadowvanilla purposes-
au details below
HELLO SO I PRESENT AMNESIAC AU
so you see, i was minding my business, drawing and looking at cookies and how everyone has their own cool aus with awesome designs and i went "well im not very good at designing but i Love putting characters in Situations"
this au is mostly focused on shadowvanilla so dont be too hopeful I'll get into the other cookies besides their little circle, im ill for gay yaoi only okay
So! motions to comic above, amnesia smilk time! let me elaborate
Pure vanilla fucked up BIG TIME, in that he maybe ventured out to beast yeast alone to try and find out more about the beasts and a way to stop them, as people with a savior complex have a habit of doing. Maybe, perhaps, also at the same time, smilk was getting the workings of his new dough body done and sensing pv was nearby decided to take the opportunity to torment him a little, yknow he cant help himself! he needs to see him
a nasty little fight and confrontation in some old structures of smilk (or at the spire) result in pv using a strange spell he spotted in the surrounding papers and documents, and .... accidentally cracks smilk's soul jam! hehe, oops!
and also sealing his memories. double oops. damn, what are you gonna do now pv?
well he cant leave confused smilk alone here, and itd honestly be best the other beasts and dark enchantress dont drag him back there in this state, so he offers a hand.
"Come with me. We can help you, I'll make sure you're okay."
a memory-less smilk is confused by this but... he's already grabbing the other cookie's hand before he realizes it. It'll probably be fine, something about this cookie... makes something in him feel okay.
taps forehead, im still working everything out of course, and i WILL be cursing all of you with sketchy stuff about it when I'm able, i need more time to figure out smilk's behaviors without the soul jam and corruption
of course I'm always of the mind that pre-corruption smilk was kind of a rat and rude but how exactly is the real question!! how bad was it before the corruption exacerbated the negative qualities of knowledge and his personality
anyways,,, feel free to ask questions!! it could help me figure this all out, if yall are interested of course,,,,,,,my,,,, handful of crk followers SNRRKS
#pure vanilla cookie#shadow milk cookie#white lily cookie#gingerbrave#wizard cookie#strawberry cookie#crk fanart#crk au#amnesiac au#shadowvanilla#pureshadow#<- that is my end goal here guys the men are going to kiss#my drawbs#ALSO THIS WONT BE TOO ANGSTY AN AU#WE ARE A HOUSE OF HAPPY ENDINGS HERE IM SORRY I LOVE HAPPY ENDINGS OR AT LEAST HOPEFUL ONES#but rest assured there will still be angst and conflict#as is a constant with liars#looks directly at pv

Apprentice of the Butler
AKA "Alfred Pennyworth hires an interim butler while he recuperates from a Rogue attack. Who better than adoption bait Danny Fenton?" prompt!!
Okay, so imagine Danny moves to Gotham to pursue astrophysics at Gotham-U but he's having a surprisingly difficult time keeping a job. Every time he gets hired, the place gets burned down or blown up by Rogues; it's like he's catnip for trouble. Somehow, he's always in the wrong place at the wrong time.
And Alfred Pennyworth also happens to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. He's at the Gotham Market Co-op, where Danny's been recently hired, and suddenly it's gassed by Scarecrow's Fear Toxin. All the employees and customers scramble to put on their gas masks, but Danny's new enough that he has no idea what's happening. He's suddenly seeing Fright Knight, Dark Pariah, and the GIW. So, he Goes Ghost, defeats all of Scarecrow's goonies, and saves the day! If only his boss would think so, too.
Uh, no. Apparently Danny's now on a Wanted List as an undocumented meta?? And his boss can't be investigated by the GCPD (he's, like, four years behind on taxes and has been dodging the IRS for longer), so he regretfully has to let Danny go. But, hey! Maybe if he becomes a documented meta, he can get hired back. Except Danny can't because the GIW can access the meta registration database and he'll be found out faster than he can leave Gotham.
So, Danny's fired again.
And Alfred "Pride & Honor" Pennyworth?? He's not gonna let the child who saved him (because Scarecrow absolutely was going to snatch the Wayne's butler, who better to take hostage than a billionaire's publicly beloved Father Figure??) possibly become homeless. It's clear the kid is a college student and is barely scraping by, probably paying way too much for room and board at Gotham-U. And... maybe his wrist hurts a bit from a fall. He's older now, it's not impossible that he'd get a sprain or a broken bone. (Plus, Alfred knows the look. The same one as Dick, Jason, Tim, even Bruce. There's an immense grief in those small shoulders, fear and loneliness.)
Cue Alfred hiring Danny on as an interim butler while he recuperates (oh, he's terribly injured, thank you so much for helping me, my boy-). And Danny can't say no. I mean, this old man got injured during the Rogue attack he was apart of! And he's asking for help! And it's also nice to have some money. And a bed and... oh, God, he's working for a billionaire frootloop. Uh-oh.
(Alfred absolutely doesn't tell Bruce about his new son apprentice. It's worth it to see Bruce's eyes glaze over as sees a black-haired teenager standing in the kitchen with Alfred, then doing a double take when he realizes it isn't Jason. And the others are banned from the kitchen, so who is this child in his house?? It's not Kon or Jon either??)
Meanwhile, Danny is actually having a great time with Mr. Pennyworth!! The older man is kind, soft-spoken, and really knows his stuff. Danny really enjoys learning how to cook, especially because none of the food comes alive to fight him. Eventually the Batfam just become used to seeing Danny in the kitchens, gardens, around the house with Alfred. He's a cute kid, always smiling and talking about his college classes. He has effortless sarcastic banter with both Damian and Jason, bonds with Tim about some kind of difficult mechanical mathematics or something, trades dad jokes with Dick. He even manages to win over Cass, Steph, Duke, and Babs.
The only one Danny doesn't truly seem to like is Bruce Wayne, although he never outright disrespects him, since he pays the bills and Danny's midwestern manners kick in. Bruce is confused and very concerned because why is this kid literally glaring daggers at him all the time?? Is he going to poison Bruce's coffee?? Danny's just trying to figure out if Bruce Wayne is a "collects vintage dentures" or "keeps teenagers locked in his basement" type of billionaire frootloop. (He'd kinda prefer the kidnapping, Danny does not want to go looking for a wine cellar and find an entire basement of old teeth.)
Bonus if Bruce tries to subtly win the boy over and Danny's just like, squinting at him, white-knuckling a frying pan and muttering, "That's exactly what someone who collects teeth would say..."

⊹₊⟡Pile I
First Things First: The Vibes Are Mysterious AF. Your future spouse’s first impression of you-Intriguing. Confusing. Obsessive. You are not someone they can just glance at and move on. this spread is screaming mystery, but not in a “cold and distant” way, it’s more like "Who ARE they? Why do I want to know everything about them?" There’s something about you that feels just out of reach, like you’re showing them a version of yourself, but they can sense there’s way more underneath. And that? That’s addictive. It’s the kind where they need to figure you out. They want to know what makes you tick, what you’re thinking when you glance away mid-conversation, and what you’re dreaming about at night. And it’s not in a shallow, superficial way, this person is genuinely captivated. But here’s where it gets interesting, because while The Moon makes them curious about you, the Eight of Pentacles makes them respect you. They see someone who’s dedicated, who works their ass off at whatever they care about. Whether it’s your career, hobbies, or just the way you present yourself, you give off this “I put in the effort” type of energy. Like, they can tell you’re serious about your stuff and that immediately makes you stand out. That alone makes them take you seriously. Okay, But They Lowkey Feel a Bit…Uncertain? Now, listen, The Moon is also about illusions and uncertainty, so while they are intrigued, they might feel like they don’t fully “get” you at first. And that? That’s messing with them. They’re probably used to reading people easily, but you? You’re hard to pin down, and they love it…but also hate it?? It’s like, are they flirting with me or just being nice? Are they interested, or am I making this up? I also see that they would immediately start thinking about possibilities with you but they hesitate. Not because they’re uninterested, but because they’re trying to figure out where they stand. They respect you and your dedication, seeing you as someone with a future. They feel pulled toward you but also slightly intimidated or uncertain because you’re not easy to read (Love that for you😂). And darling, let’s be real when someone is this intrigued by you from the jump, That’s the step 1 for obsession. You might notice them observing you before making a move, trying to decode you.
This pile has the most unpredictable energy among the three. Your future spouse is unsure where they stand at first but feels a pull towards you. LOL, they might initially think “Whoa, Do they even notice me?” They might even romanticize you in their mind before truly knowing you (CUTE ngl) because your energy leaves so much to the imagination.

⊹₊⟡Pile II
Ooooh, okay, let’s get into it. Babe, your future spouse’s first impression of you is giving emotional puzzle meets graceful chaos, and I’m obsessed with how this energy is playing out. The moment they lay eyes on you, there’s an instant curiosity. You come across as graceful, emotionally intelligent, and balanced, BUTT, they know there’s more going on beneath the surface. Like, they can tell that you keep your cool externally, but they sense this quiet storm of emotions underneath. It’s intriguing to them because it’s like, "damn, how do they juggle everything?" when you meet them, or they just get the sense that you’ve got a lot going on but still show up with poise. It’s giving “this person could be drowning in responsibilities but would still remember to send their bestie a ‘drink water,’ text.” 😭There’s this duality to you that catches their attention. You seem emotionally available but also like you’re carrying something, like you’re transitioning into a new chapter, leaving something behind and they feel that energy before you even say a word. They immediately respect you but they also feel this urge to protect you, Because on one hand, you’re exuding this soft, nurturing energy but on the other hand, they can tell you’re used to handling your own business and might not even need them like that. And WHEW, does that intimidate them a little? Yes. yall pile 2 give me the energy of a particular line I heard on TikTok, which was something like "lead me when I want to be lead"😂So when they meet you, your future spouse immediately clocks that you’re in transition, maybe you’ve recently moved, changed jobs, ended a relationship, or you’re just shifting into a new phase in life. But here’s the real deal, they don’t just find you attractive, they find you mentally stimulating. Like, you’re not just another pretty face; you make them think. Your vibe is that of someone who has been through some shit but has learned and grown from it, and they immediately wonder, What’s their story? What shaped them into this person? And suddenly, they’re invested. “Holy shit, I need to know more.” You make them think—they don’t just want to know you, they want to understand you.
SO OVERALL This pile is soothing and warm, but also very self-aware and mature. Your future spouse feels safe and understood with you, like you’re someone they could see themselves building a peaceful life with. This is wayyyyyyy less confusion here compared to Deck 1; they pretty much immediately know you’re a rare find.

⊹₊⟡Pile III
Your future spouse’s first impression of you? WHEW, they’re looking at you like you’re a whole standard, not just “crush-worthy,” but someone they gotta step their game up for. Their First Thought? “Damn, they’re sharp.” Like, no joke, the moment they meet you, they immediately pick up on your sharp mind and no-BS attitude. You give off this queen-level aura that’s like, “I see through people". 💅. love it, but also have no idea how to approach you at first because you don’t seem like the type who’s easily impressed. Your whole energy screams “I’ve got my shit together.” And babe, they feel that. They’re looking at you like, “Okay, so this person is intelligent, confident, and carries themselves like they own the room, how do I NOT embarrass myself in front of them?” But it’s not just about confidence, you also have this elegance about you. You’re not loud or flashy; you’re just refined, polished, and unbothered in a way that makes people want to impress you. LOL also one thing, you make them feel like, "“Are they always this serious? Or do they have a goofy side?” You walk in, and it’s giving the main character energy without even trying. Here’s where it gets really interesting. Because at first, they see you as this composed, independent person who doesn’t need anybody. But then, there’s this subtle warmth about you that catches them off guard. I can feel that you’re someone who values fairness, generosity, and kindness, but only for the right people. You’re not out here wasting time. You know your worth, but when you do let people in? You’re the type to genuinely care, support, and uplift those around you. And that contrast? Whew. It messes them up in the best way. It’s like, “Wait… they’re not just powerful and intimidating… they’re actually thoughtful and kind, too? What kind of dream person did I just meet???” Your future spouse is immediately caught up in their head about you. Their first impression of you isn’t just “oh, they’re cute.” It’s deep admiration mixed with a little bit of panic.
Honestly, This is the type of first impression that lingers. They’re not just walking away thinking “Wow, that was a cool person.” No, no. They’re going home, replaying the conversation, trying to figure out how to impress you next time, and probably texting their best friend like, “I think I just met the most unreal person ever.”

Freak Like Me
Bucky x reader
Summary: You got banned from playing music in the training room for a reason, and when an unexpected song plays during your workout, Bucky finds out why.
Word Count: 2311
Thought I'd give you guys something a little more spicy! Hope you enjoy :)
You walked down the hall of the Avengers tower toward the training room, and it was uncharacteristically quiet. You knew a lot of the Avengers had meetings today, but you didn’t think everyone did. You were glad though, because you didn’t really like working out with other people and you could play whatever music you wanted over the speakers.
You listened to a little bit of everything, and that was true for working out too. The music would go from rap, to pop, to rock, and while you didn’t blink an eye, everyone else hated it. So, naturally, you got banned from playing music when everyone else was in there.
You walked around the corner into the training room and came to a stop. Bucky was inside warming up on the treadmill. Of course someone had to be in there, and of course it had to be Bucky. He of all people would be most likely to hate your music.
You hadn’t brought your headphones, and you thought about going back to get them when Bucky looked your way.
“Hey, y/n,” he said, turning off the treadmill.
“Oh, hey Bucky,” you said, realizing it probably looked like you were standing there staring at him.
You walked in and set your stuff down, plugging in your phone by the benches because you forgot to charge it last night.
“What are you hitting today,” Bucky asked.
“Steve is making me do his leg workout,” you said, rolling your eyes.
“Yikes, have fun with that.”
Bucky walked over to pick up some weights as you were trying to decide whether or not to ask if you could play music. You assumed he would say no, but decided to ask him anyway.
“Hey Buck, is it cool if I play music?”
“Yeah, go ‘head,” he said, surprising you.
“Oh, okay cool.” You went to your settings to connect your phone to the speakers, then pressed shuffle on your workout playlist. The first song that started playing was an old rock song, so you were hoping Bucky wouldn’t regret saying yes too much. Then, you walked over to the other side of the training room to get set up.
Your playlist went through a bunch of different genres, but thankfully, Bucky didn’t seem to mind. You were both just minding your own business and doing your own thing.
A little bit later, a new song started playing and you heard Bucky call over to you.
“Hey, I actually know this one,” he said, with a proud smile on his face.
You just laughed, listening to the music and realizing it was Put Your Head on My Shoulder by Paul Anka. It would’ve came out after the 40s, but apparently Bucky still knew it.
But then, you started thinking, this song would not be on your workout playlist. Your eyes went wide when you realized what song it actually was. Freak by Doja Cat.
You quickly reached down for your phone to change the song, only to realize it was still plugged in on the other side of the room. Plus, you couldn’t just change the one song Bucky said he knew without him being suspicious.
You started to freak out, knowing the song would definitely make him uncomfortable, when the music paused for a brief moment. You held your breath for what was coming next.
“Freak like me. You want a good girl that does bad things (to you).”
You looked at Bucky, and you couldn’t see his face because he had his back facing you, but he had stopped in the middle of his workout. You started over to get your phone when he turned around.
“What the heck is this?” he asked, a mix of confusion and horror on his face.
You stopped, trying to figure out how to answer, when the song kept going.
“Tied him down to my queen bed. Tease him just enough to hate me. Tied it tight enough he can’t break free.”
You scurried over to the benches and grabbed your phone, quickly skipping the song. You tried to play it cool, but Bucky was already walking over to you.
“So, is this why you got banned from playing music? You play songs about sex?”
You sighed. “No, they just don’t like that I play so many different genres,” you said, your face heating up.
He just hummed in response, still staring at you with his steel blue eyes.
“And here I was, thinking that you were so innocent,” he said, smirking.
“It’s – just a good song,” you replied, trying to defend yourself. Your face was bright red at this point, and you knew he was loving this, making you squirm.
“So, which one of the guys are you wanting to tie down to your bed, hmm?”
Your jaw dropped, face flushing as you tried to figure out how to respond to that.
“No one,” you said, “it’s just a catchy song.”
“Right,” he responded, his smile getting a little bigger. You knew he was never going to let this go.
“Well, I’m gonna go back to my workout,” you said, walking past him. But before you could get very far, he grabbed your arm and turned you toward him in one quick motion. You were now standing chest to chest, your faces just inches apart.
“If I didn’t know any better, I’d think you played that song on purpose. I mean, we are the only two people in the tower for another couple hours,” he said, his voice low and deeper than it was before, sending a shiver down your spine.
Your jaw dropped slightly once again, trying to figure out if he was being serious or not. Your heart was thumping in your chest, and you hated to admit it, but him pulling you towards him and talking in that voice was making you insanely turned on.
You opened your mouth, but when nothing came out, Bucky’s smirk just got bigger.
“I – I didn’t play that on purpose,” was all you could say.
Finally, Bucky broke character and started to laugh, dropping his hand from your arm. Your skin was still tingling where his hand had been.
“I’m just messing with you y/n,” he said, laughing. “You should’ve seen your face though!”
You stood there in shock as he walked away, trying to wrap your head around what had just happened. You walked back to the other side of the room, but you weren’t able to focus on the rest of your workout. You didn’t dare look over toward Bucky, so you had no idea that his gaze kept shifting to you, distracted from his own workout.
You finished your workout as quickly as possible and made a beeline for the door, grabbing your phone and not saying a word to Bucky as you practically ran out the door.
You were halfway down the hallway before you finally felt like you could breathe again. You didn’t realize how you had basically been holding your breath that whole time. You got back to your room and quickly jumped in the shower, just wanting to relax after how worked up you were.
You stepped out of the shower when you realized you forgot to grab clothes to change into. You sighed, trying not to focus on how nothing seemed to be going your way today. You just wrapped your towel around you after drying off and walked out of the bathroom to your room.
You were halfway down the hallway before you looked up and stopped dead in your tracks. Bucky was standing outside the door to your room.
And you were standing in front of him in nothing but a little towel. Could this day get any weirder?
“Uhh, what are you doing?” you asked.
“Sorry I just – was gonna apologize, but – seems like you’re really trying to get my attention now,” he said, a smirk plastered on his face yet again.
You sighed, determined to not let him get under your skin this time. Maybe you’d have a little fun with him.
“And what if I am?” you said, giving him a smirk of your own.
His smirk turned into a brief second of shock, and you could tell he was caught off guard.
You sauntered down the hallway, walking right past him into your room, but not before running your hand along his arm as you walked past. You could feel his eyes on you as you walked into your room, not bothering to close the door.
You walked over to your dresser, bending over to get clothes out, knowing your towel was long enough to cover you, but not quite long enough to keep Bucky from going a little crazy. You made sure to pick out the tiniest pair of shorts you own and a cropped baby tee.
You turned around grabbing the top of your towel like you were going to drop it at any second. His face was bright red and he looked like a deer in headlights. Man was this fun.
“You standing there hoping for a show, or can I get dressed in peace?”
“Oh, uh – sorry,” he mumbled. He pointed at the door, “do you want me to, uh – never mind,” he put his head down and practically ran the other way.
You tried so hard not to bust out laughing as you went over and shut the door.
Once you put on your clothes, you walked back down to the kitchen to get something to eat. Conveniently, Bucky was right there, sitting at the island.
“Hey Buck,” you said, flashing him a smile.
He looked you up and down, obviously liking what you were wearing.
“Hey,” he finally managed to get out.
“Are you gonna make something for lunch,” you asked him.
“Uhh, yeah I was gonna make some eggs.”
“Oooh, that sounds good, maybe I’ll make some too.” You walked over to the drawer with the pans, exaggerating every movement as you bent over. You knew he was going insane.
“Do you want me to just make yours too,” you asked, not bothering to turn around. You set the pan on the stove, finally turning around when he didn’t answer you.
That’s when you realized he was right behind you, looking at you with a deep intensity in his eyes. He had been so flustered, you didn’t expect him to do anything about it.
He slowly leaned forward, arms grabbing the counter on either side of you, trapping you in place.
“What are you doing?” he asked.
“Umm, making eggs,” you said, slowly.
“Are you tryna’ kill me, doll?”
The nickname made your stomach flutter.
“I was joking earlier,” he said, “I never thought you’d do it back.”
“And what makes you think I’m joking?” you responded.
“Oh, I don’t know, maybe the fact that I’ve never seen you wear so little clothes around the tower.”
“I was still hot from my workout,” you said, shrugging.
“Oh, trust me, I am too,” he said, lifting his eyebrows.
Bucky didn’t back up, and neither did you.
He looked down at you, his voice rough with restraint. “You keep playing with fire, doll.”
You tilted your head, meeting his stare without flinching. “Maybe I like the heat.”
A muscle in his jaw twitched as his eyes darkened. For a moment, neither of you moved—until he reached up, brushing a strand of damp hair behind your ear. His fingers lingered against your cheek, trailing lightly down your jaw.
“You drive me crazy, you know that?” he murmured.
“Good,” you whispered, your voice breathy.
And that was all it took. He leaned in fast, pressing his lips to yours with a force that stole your breath. One hand gripped the counter beside you, the other sliding around your waist, pulling you flush against his chest. You gasped into the kiss, fingers fisting in the fabric of his shirt, and he took that opportunity to deepen it—his lips moving hungrily against yours like he’d been waiting for this for far too long.
When you finally pulled apart for air, his forehead rested against yours, both of you breathing hard.
“Still want eggs?” he asked, his voice low and teasing.
You smiled, shaking your head. “Not really.”
Bucky’s smirk returned, but this time it was laced with something deeper—need, maybe, or anticipation. He backed you gently out of the kitchen, never breaking eye contact.
“Then come on, sweetheart,” he said. “Let’s see how hot things can really get.”
And just like that, lunch was officially off the menu.
--
The next morning, you woke up tangled in warm sheets—and even warmer arms.
Bucky was still fast asleep behind you, his chest pressed to your back, metal arm draped lazily over your waist. His steady breathing tickled the back of your neck, and you smiled, remembering the very unexpected turn your day had taken.
You shifted slightly, and his grip tightened instinctively, pulling you even closer. “Mmm… don’t move,” he mumbled, voice thick with sleep.
“I thought super soldiers didn’t need this much rest,” you teased softly.
His lips brushed your shoulder. “They don’t,” he murmured. “But if it means waking up next to you like this…I’ll gladly pretend to be human.”
You rolled your eyes with a grin and reached behind you to ruffle his hair. “You’re such a sap.”
He grinned against your skin. “Only for you.”
Your phone buzzed from the nightstand, a text from Nat lighting up the screen:
You forgot to clean the pan from your “egg-making” session yesterday. Sloppy cover story, y/n.
You groaned and hid your face in the pillow as Bucky peeked at the message over your shoulder.
“So… busted?” he asked.
You sighed. “So busted.”
He laughed, pulling you closer again. “Worth it.”
And you had to admit—it really, really was.

Tim Drake who was raised to not be allowed to ask questions at home and so he just assumes that he’s not allowed to anywhere.
It wasn’t like he was told he couldn’t, it was just that he was often ignored when he did or made to feel like a burden or even straight up stupid when he did. They were too busy to answer questions that could be easily answered if he just thought about it.
It doesn’t help that he’s a naturally curious child and can rattle off a dozen questions in a single minute.
So, when he starts being around and eventually living in the manner he sort of just assumes he’s not allowed to and naturally, this leaves him with a lot of internal turmoil. He does ask questions, but not things that are either able for him to figure by himself or something that he thinks could be a bother for others, things like how to use the new tech that came into the ace or where the fresh linen was.
Bruce at first is impressed by the way Tim adjusted to things so independently and with so little need for guidance, but even when he’s at his lowest he’s able to see how strange it is that Tim seems to put so much stress on himself for things he can get others to do. He assumes Tim is like him and just wants to figure things out himself, determined to solve things on his own.
It comes to a head one day when he watches Tim storm up the stairs while a confused Dick is standing below looking utterly bewildered.
Upon questioning him, Dick explains that he had just been asking Tim if he needed any assistance with his ongoing case as it seemed to be bothering him only for Tim to instantly snap at him about hypocrisy and double standards.
Bruce tells Dick to just give him some space to calm down and instead goes to see Tim himself.
His ongoing my theories since he started to get a clearly head and had talks with Dinah.
Standing next to the door to very clearly show that Tim can leave the conversation whenever he wants, he doesn’t bother trying to hide what he’s doing because no matter how he does it Tim will notice, instead he just stands there a moment until Tim looks up from where he is angrily rearranging his clothes… on the floor… to other parts of the floor.
Bruce holds back a sigh and instead speaks in as steady of a voice as he can, “Ducky, I want us to have a talk, not just about you. Can we please try?”
Maybe it’s the earnest wording and the way he’s invoking himself in the discussion, or the old nickname that Bruce hasn’t actually used for a while, or perhaps both, but Tim deflates like a balloon and goes to sit down on his bed and gives a single nod.
Bruce smiles and something it is so clearly Bruce the person, the parent, the guy whose just trying and not Batman or Brucie.
Bruce sits as well, parallel to him and with as reflex posture he can have with such a tense body, “Tim, why do you feel you can ask for help?”
It’s such an open ended question and Tim can’t help but scoff, his own internal perception making him feel angry at the question and so he snaps, “Because I can’t! You guys never offer help and even when I want to it doesn’t matter because it’s always about what Damian wants for dinner and what times are better for Dick for lunch or- or work! It’s only me doing Wayne Enterprise stuff and I also have to do Drake Industries stuff now and none of you guys help me because I have to do everything on my own-“
Bruce doesn’t want to cut him off but this confirms some things and if so, he needs to do fix some things quickly.
“Ducky, why do you have to do everything on your own? I don’t mean as Robin or Red Robin, but as you, as Tim.”
Bruce can only hope he’s doing this right and that he isn’t pushing in a way that’s going to hurt Tim.
Nothing can stop the way Bruce startles when Tim lets out a guttural scream of pure frustration, standing up and looking so genuinely past it as he shouts, “BECAUSE I ALWAYS HAVE TO! IF I ASK FOR HELP I’LL JUST BE IGNORED OR TOLD IM STUPID OR- OR-“
Tim starts to huff, choking on air as he lets out several years of frustration out only to collapse under Joe helpless he feels.
Staying as still as he can, not showing his concern or his growing heart ache, Bruce leaves a hand palm out out for Tim to take and asks as carefully as he can, “By who, Ducky?”
And Tim, he looks so angry at first and yet when he opens his mouth he sputters and hesitates, trying to say something before thinking better of it a couple times and then… then he just looks defeated as he can’t bring himself to give an example of this because in reality, it hasn’t really happened. Sure there have been times when people have had to deny him, but how rare has that been?
And when has he actually been denied for no reason?
Tim sputters again and this time he actually speaks and says, “But mum-“
Bruce has to hold everything in him back from giving the most heartbroken look because it will definitely be misinterpreted as pity.
Never has Tim look more like a kid even though he’s almost eighteen, he looks like he’s lost in a supermarket and the front counter has called for his parents several times and still he’s alone.
He gives an encouraging nod when Tim goes to speak again and stops, still holding out his hand even as his arm beg isn’t to ache.
Tim manages to say, “If I ask for help then-then I’m being childish.”, right before falling into a ball of himself while also reaching a hand out to grasp Bruce’s.
Bruce himself brings himself to the floor and squeezes Tim’s hand, getting as close as he dares without checking in first but Tim just falls into him.
He can’t deny it’s a bit awkward at first, but eventually he just does what feels natural and cradles Tim to his chest.
A moment passes before either speaks again and it’s Bruce, “Ducky, I want you to know this isn’t your fault. I shouldn’t have just let you take on so much by yourself and assumed you were okay, I shouldn’t have offered help and shown you that you can ask for it.”
Tim goes to speak and Bruce gives a small squeeze to ask him to wait, luckily Tim understands and lets him continue, “I don’t know everything, I have an idea but I think assuming things is what’s put us in this position in the first place. What I do know is that some things need to change, including how much pressure has been put on you and at the same time, I need you to do something for me. It’s not going to be easy but I know you can do it, Ducky.”
With a sniffle, Tim pulls away from him and looks at him with red eyes, “What is it?”
Bruce smiles, “I want you to try to not assume how we’re going to react to things. More specifically, I want you to do your best to give us a chance to respond to you better or even just differently to how your parents would.”
Tim look ashamed for a second and Bruce knows that expression, it’s the one Tim gets what he feels confused or stupid and so Bruce pulls him close again and says, “You haven’t done anything wrong, Tim. You haven’t made a mistake, it just… you were raised in different way to how we do things, right or wrong. Because Tim, and I’m saying this as clearly and plainly as I can,”
This time he nods along to his words and prays he’s doing the right thing and says, “You are allowed to ask questions.”
Tim starts to sniffle again and Bruce knows he’s done right, “you can ask anything, Ducky, even something small and pointless or something huge and personal or even just something without a definite answer. We’re here to help you, not hinder you.”
This time Tim cries and by all definitions it’s a wail, a heartbreaking and tragic wail of pure emotion as he sobs into his father’s arms.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I thought- god I was so angry and it was all my fault and I-I’ll
Bruce shuts that down immediately, “no it wasn’t, we should have done better to show you it was okay before hand. Yes, you did put more power to this than you should have but by all accounts it makes sense, and at the same time-“ because two truths are possible and important, win for Dialectic Behavioural Therapy “-we had a duty to you to notice and act on it. I knew something was up and I didn’t do anything even though I’m a detective and your carer, and that is on me. I admit that.”
Tim just cried harder and tries to shake his head no but then Bruce holds him tighter and he can’t.
He does feel stupid, like he made a big deal out of something small, but it was so big to him growing up and he wanted better but just… couldn’t take the chance.
But Bruce seems to want to understand and in a lot of ways already does, so…
“Okay. Okay, I believe you.”
Bruce smiles and kisses his head, “Thank you, Ducky.”
Dick and Alfred, standing by the doorway, both give each other a nod and start working out how to explain this to the Damian ‘Change Is My Worst Enemy’ Wayne.

tangled limbs
part 2 here!
pairing: spencer reid x bau!female reader
summary: you and spencer are in a secret relationship but you’re sick so spencer immediately rushes to your place after work but he ends up falling asleep, but penelope and derek catch you two.
contents: fluff, sick reader!, talks of throwing up
you woke up that day feeling absolutely terrible but decided to go into work anyways, however just before you and the team were about to go on the jet aaron stopped you and told you to go home.
“what! why?” you said stunned but aaron just shot you a look as if to say “are you serious”. “you look very ill, and it doesn’t ease my nerves to know one of my team might throw up everywhere based on the way you cover your mouth every five seconds” aaron said pointedly.
“you make a very good point sir” you said giving up and walking to go pack up your stuff to leave. “where are you headed?” spencer said subtly putting his hand on your wrist.
“home i feel awful” you said as you yet again find your hand flying up to your mouth in a moment of panic thinking you might throw up but lower your hand when the nausea passed.
“in the politest way possible, you look god awful” spencer said in a soft tone. “gee, thanks” you laugh.
“i’ll see you later.” you said and when there was no one around he planted a kiss on your temple which made your pale complexion flush instantly.
—-
you got changed into your pjs immediately upon arriving home and flop into bed making sure you have a sick bucket at the side of your bed just incase.
practically as soon as your head hit the pillow you fell into a deep slumber. the coolness of your sheets hitting your flushed face felt nice and soothing.
some hours later you awoke startled as you felt someone gently shake you awake. “spence?” you managed to say once you peeled your eyes open. you looked around your room finding that your room was engulfed in darkness. wow how long had you slept?
you check your phone and see it was 11pm that same day, you had slept all day.
“what are you doing here?” you asked softly budging up and patting the now open spot for spencer to sit in.
“i was worried about you” spencer said engulfing you in a gentle hug. “it’s only a stomach bug and maybe a bit of a fever” you waved off.
“shhh let me worry” spencer said lying down and pulling you into his side. “you guys are back earlier than i thought” you said trying to make conversation. “the case was a bust, minimal evidence” spencer said sadly. “i’m thankful i didn’t miss out on much i already feel awful for not being there” you confessed.
“you never take a day off work not in all the years i’ve known you, plus you didn’t really take the day off you were sent home” spencer said reassuringly.
you smile up at him and snuggle into him even more as if no matter how close you were pressed into him it wasn’t enough. he diverts his soft doe like eyes down to yours and kisses you tenderly.
“my breath smells bad” you said giggling. “let me look after you” spencer smiles and runs his fingers through your hair which has your eyelids drooping.
—-
penelope and derek both take turns knocking on your apartment door but there was no answer. “we’ll just use her spare key!” penelope exclaims. “why would you know where she keeps her spare key?” derek asked in confusion. “doesn’t take a genius to figure it out” penelope said and retrieved your spare key from underneath your doormat.
“for an fbi agent that’s this smart she doesn’t think about her safety” derek laughed.
penelope and derek had brought you a care package although it was all penelope’s idea and derek just tagged along, it consisted of homemade soup, face masks, etc.
they made a beeline to your bedroom as it was the only door closed and you weren’t anywhere else. “y/n!” penelope said in a sing song voice.
“i—?” penelope said going to say something but stopped dead in her tracks and so did derek.
the scene they saw infront of them was you nestled in closely to spencer’s side, your head buried in the crook of his nick and his head resting on top of yours. he had a protective arm slung over your body while your hand was resting on his chest. and your legs where tangled together.
“did you know anything about this?” derek asked in surprise. “no! how could she not say anything” penelope whisper shouted.
“i think we should take a picture!” penelope announced excitedly and captured a photo of you two.
“they are never hearing the end of this.” derek chuckled.

Caleb was no doctor, but he was gonna have to diagnose you with…
Pretty princess disorder
I means he’s staring at you right now in bed, feet up while he paints your toenails.. and what was your explanation for having him do it and not going to the nail salon
“ babyyy, your massages are way better” you whine.
When you got out of the shower, he dried your hair in your own words
“ you don’t want me catching a cold do you” you said lip poked out , oh how Caleb just wanted to suck right in your bottom lip in that moment.
You were truly a lady of leisure, but Caleb didn’t mind he created this monster and he loved every second of it.
You two were laying in bed one night snuggling as Caleb kissed the top of your head
“ I love you my little pretty princess ” you pulled back slightly shocked by what he had just said.. was he trying to make a sexy term somehow endearing? He’s the one who did this too you .. you were nowhere near as needy before Caleb.
“ baby what?” You reply
Caleb cocks his head to the side confused
“ did i say something wrong?” He says
“ I completely am a pretty princess but, do you know who did this to me..”
“ hmmm no.. I just figured it was from all the times I insisted you needed to be take care of , like how I always dry your hair for you” his eyes light up.
You giggle a tiny bit kissing his lips “nope!”
“ let me give you a hint” you say getting off the bed and maneuvering Caleb so he’s sat on the edge while your head is between his legs
He’s utterly confused.. as you go to pull down his grey sweatpants he stops you.
“ honey, What have I told you about giving me blow jobs on your knees on the hard floor, you’ll get hurt that way, plus I much prefer you being the one pleased”
And that’s how you ended up laying on the bed legs wrapped around Caleb’s torso while his cock was snug and cushioned right in your cunt.
“ holy, fuck Caleb your so deep” you moan out
He’s by your ear relentlessly pounding like he’s in a daze as he mumbles “ pretty princess” over and over again in your ear
“ s-so good” your head rolls back as you feel the tip of his cock beating at your cervix like it’s a door you can beat down.
“ feels good hm princess, the prettiest princess there ever is and was” he says lifting your chin to get you to look in his eyes
You quickly nod your head up and down
“ god- your so fucking cute makin me wanna cum” your tight cunt flutters at those words and he feels it
“ oh… baby I think it’s time this princess gave her king some heirs”
“ Caleb— ngh — need your cum” you manage to get out between Caleb’s relentless pounding
“ I’m working on it honey, almost there-“ you feel his climax before he does
“ gonna stuff you full like you’re meant to be-“ he finally looses control his seed pumping into your cunt, sucking it up just as Caleb wanted , just as he needed it to.
He flops down on the bed next to your head a hurried kiss before getting up quickly after
“ do we need to discuss the pretty princess topic anymore” you giggle tiredly
“Nope! but what I do need you to do is put this pillow under your hips, I read elevation promotes insemination, a pretty princess deserves heirs” he says as he kisses your forehead.
