#the league of the lone eye has two new members!! :D

[megalomari]

made some questionable oculary decisions on my first run lol

[awsugawara]

bnha hcs with an artsy s/o [1/?]

i’m going to make this a mini series, so expect to see this AND haikyuu characters too :) i will also do the k-pop hcs too, so look forward to that !

note: your quirk will be the same all around, if implied you have one!

Quirk: AMBIENT ILLUSION - with a single touch of your hand or glance, you are able to make your opponent think that they’ve been taken to another “realm,” but in actuality their body movements mimic those in the illusion; it’s a quirk that can be used for good or for bad; your creativity isn’t limited, but the side effects are headaches, nausea, and sometimes insanity for a short period of time until your stamina runs out or unless someone knocks you out

Hero Name: Chiaroscuro or Chiasu [for short]- referring to the major contrast of light and dark in an image; in italian it is said to literally mean light-dark

enjoy :)

s. aizawa

> teacher x teacher scenario tyvm

> you were a popular teacher at U.A., teaching in some of the general studies classes as an art teacher

> students in class 1-C, D, and E would flaunt how cute/hot and talented their pro hero of an art teacher was

> midnight was gossiping about you with present mic and aizawa overheard

> he knows you have your own agency, so how you double that plus being a teacher was beyond him

> “oh midnight! i was actually looking for you :)”

> aizawa-seeing-a-cutie.exe has stopped working.

> for someone who is low energy and stoic for the most part, this was new

> got more acquainted with the other teachers, but you were really close with aizawa

> funny thing is,,,you and aizawa met up a lot after school and you eventually started dating

> the other pro heroes at the school only found out is when midnight had walked in on them kissing

> the students found out about the relationship when aizawa walked you to your next lecture class as he left class 1-A  with present mic

> aizawa glared at them and as soon as he left, your students pelted you with questions, until the teacher told them to quiet down

--- k. takami 

> keigo is like a SIMP for you

> he practically with go out of his way just to buy you new art stuff

> “babe...i don’t need anymore sketchbook paper...i have an office at the school and they supply my paper-”

> “you can never have enough, my dove”

> you work at U.A. as an art teacher and met keigo when you were walking home from the school

> you had a run in with a villain, who was on a mission to kidnap you and he swooped in to save you 

> your art was scattered all over and some destroyed and keigo caught a glimpse of them and noticed your U.A. badge

> “you’re a teach at U.A.?”

> keigo walks you home, if you chose to stay late to work on your art

> when you first started dating, he was wondering why you would stay so late, and you had to explain your quirk to him

> he wants to be your #1 source of ideas, but he gives you space when you’re truly at an artist roadblock

> when he took you flying for the first time, he vowed to take you every now and then because seeing how your eyes lit up at the city below made it worth while

--- t. shigaraki

> shiggy treats you like glass

> i see him as someone that really admires you and your quirk, let alone your ability to be able to create such fine pieces of art

> you were a lone wolf, who met dabi, who introduced you to the league

> when shigs laid his eyes on you for the first time, he was SMITTEN

> childishly rants to kurogiri when you and dabi are out patrolling

> “why do they always have to go with that burnt piece of shit”

> #getrekteddabi

> shiggy sucks at socializing and it doesn’t help that you always have a resting bitch face™

> you’re actually a softie and a sweetheart at heart, but you notice shiggs advances and are quite confused

> “uhm...hello, tomura-senpai,,,is there something i can help you with?”

> rip shiggy from the CUTENESS

> one day when you didn’t show up at the base and dabi did, shigaraki and kurogiri gave him a look

> “oh, if you’re looking for Chiasu, they’re at home sleeping...idiot stayed up painting again.”

> shiggy left after demanding dabi to reveal their location

> when he got there, he rang the doorbell and questioning why he came because this really isn’t something he does

> “hmm? tomura-senpai? what are you doing here?” **rubs sleep out of your eyes**

> he felt his heart leap

> “i came to see my s/o after being told that they stayed up working. now, are you going to let me in or am i going to have to force myself inside your house?”

--- dabi

>  you were at witz end with your life as a pro hero 

> you weren’t depressed or anything,,,just bored,,,no ideas or fighting spirit

>one day, you had happened to run into dabi committing one of his oversized fires

> he tried reading you, but all he got was just your stoic, almost sad, expression

> you hadn’t moved and he was walking toward you, stopping and moving his face down to your level

> “well, well what do we have here?”

> you hadn’t remembered much from that day, but you hadn’t run into dabi and the only time you really left your house was to get more art supplies and food

> when you were trekking home on the same path, dabi stepped from the shadows in front of you

> you just gave him a blank look and tried to side step him, but obv he didn’t let you

> what happened next was probably the most shocking,,,he embraced you

> you didn’t know what to do other than cry...for losing your fighting spirit

> after that day, dabi would check up on you frequently and eventually he convinced you to stay with him, so he can stay with you

> it took about 2 months to get you to smile and boy was that worth it

> you were grateful of dabi for sparking [pun not intended] your creativity

> “if you’re so grateful, why don’t be mine?”

--- h. toga

> innocent is how toga would describe you

> her attraction to you was much more different than the times where she’d feel the need to cut someone up

> she wanted you in one piece, unharmed

> so she dragged you to be apart of the league of villains with her

> shigaraki was skeptical letting in a quirkless civilian into the league, but he found your ability to design and draw potentially useful

> dabi likes to mess with you to rile up himi

> “you lay another burnt hand on my s/o, i WILL cut you”

> himi doesn’t like the fact you’re close with some of the LOV members, so she whisks you away to her room or somewhere that’s not the base

> if you go to school and you’re adamant in finishing, himi will kinda leave out the villainous aspects of her life so you can finish

> if you go to school and you really don’t care for it, she’ll try to convince you to become a full fledged member of the LOV rather than an associate

> the mission with the yakuza was probably super nerve-wrecking for you after you saw it on the news

> you were greeted with a toga at your door that evening and you just glomped her and expressed how concerned you were, knowing what her role in the mission was

> himi met you online and then began kinda figuring out when you went to your fav cafe and art store and what you like to buy and the such

> attentive, but psycho was how you described her at first, but just accepted that aspect of her 

---

k. chisaki

> for someone who looks like a plague daddy- doctor none of the members of the yakuza would have imagined him dating a cutie with a QUIRK 

> for starters, you kinda once over the media on the yakuza, more so concerned with your art

> so when you accidentally ran into kai one evening, you kinda just shrugged it off and continued to walk home

> he was so confused like didn’t you know who he was?????????

> nonetheless, he saw you again, while you were making your way home from the convenience store with your [fav. drink + snacks]

> “oh hey! i remember you!” **insert tense kai** “you’re that guy from the other day! how are you?” **cue confused kai**

> you didn’t really have much of a reaction when you FINALLY put two and two together on

> “you’re a part of that villainous yakuza, right?” **insert tense kai** “it’s okay i won’t tell, i like you too much to turn you in :)” **cue confused kai**

> he wasn’t sure whether to be more concerned about the fact you’re letting him, a villainous yakuza go, or the fact he is starting to develop feelings for you

> regardless, kai had “kidnapped” you more like you willingly agreed to stay with him, hidden away somewhere, where you were safer

> he allowed you to continue your artistry, but he made sure to stay away at least from that aspect of your life

> he wanted you to feel like you had those forms of freedom with the line of work that he was involved in because he loves you very much

> BONUS: you held a grudge on kai for keeping eri hidden away from you and for what he did to her and got a couple of hits on his ass, but you stayed with her and aizawa after kai was arrested

Put on a Show

So @weebsinstash has an incredible yandere!erasermic x reader series go read everything they write, its fantastic

I wanted to play around with the idea too, so i asked for permission on anon lol.

enjoy this full 2,090 words

Warning: yandere themes, yandere!erasermic, League of Villains, fear, mentions of past torture, mentions of abuse, mentions of past abusive relationship, implied  Spinner x Reader, kissing, Villain origin story, female pronouns used for reader, (if i missed a tag lmk)

You ran. You ran as fast and as far as you could. Your bare feet hit the wet ground, cursing as you stumbled. Your hands hit the mud, but you didn’t stop.

Even when your lungs screamed.

Even when your muscles burned.

You kept going.

With luck, a razor and your own wits you had managed to escape that hell house. You’d managed to escape from the clutches of your obsessed demons. 

At the slight thought of your tormentors, the now healed break in your leg aches all over again. 

Keep going.

Keep going.

KEEP GOING.

The woods betrayed you before, but hopefully, the downpour may erase your footprints. A branch latched onto your shoulder and you screeched. Memories of Aizawa’s cruel grasp flooded your mind. You slipped on the wet ground, tumbling down a slight incline. 

Dazed, confused and hurt, you ignored your pain and kept going. Desperation and adrenaline kept you going.

Do not stop.

Do not stop.

You looked down to avoid losing your eyes to another branch, only to embarrassingly run straight into a tree. Your body fell back, landing harshly on the mud.

You heard a groan.

Trees do not groan.

Fear overran your systems as you slowly, shakily looked up.

In front of you was a man covered in green scales. He looked more like a lizard, than an actual human, but you quickly guessed that was his quirk. But, he wasn’t alone.

A scarred man with piercings. A teenage girl with blond hair. Another man with a mask. And lastly…

You recognized him from the news.

Shigaraki.

The League Of Villains

“What the hell,” The lizard-man hissed, rubbing his head, “Where the fuck did you come from?”

You took your chances.

“Please…” you gasped, looking up at the white haired leader, “Help me.”

It took approximately 3 seconds to be taken from the forest. The scarred man, Dabi you learned, pulled out his phone and called Kurogiri, their method of transport. 

Spinner, surprisingly like a gentleman, helped you stand and introduced himself. 

Not a second later your vision was filled with black and you were out of the rain.

Out of the cold.

Out of the monsters’ clutches.

Instead, you found yourself in a surprisingly comfortable bar scene. It was warm, bright, and quite homey.

Shigaraki continued to stare at you, his red eyes giving away nothing. The blonde however, hovered, as she began to talk. You couldn’t keep up, exhaustion slowing your mind and mental process. All you managed to register is ‘blood’.

A tall woman spoke up first, “oh dear, look at you. You look like a wet rat.” She inspected you before standing straight, “Let me get you something dry.You can call my Big Sis Magne!”

You nodded, managing a small “thank you,” as she rushed out of the room to come back with a dry towel, draping it over you.

‘Huh, it smells nice,’ you thought, wrapping it around your shoulders, taking in the small comfort. Almost like roses and lavender…

The leader finally spoke up, “Who are you?”

That was the question. That one simple question caused the dam to burst. You broke down, telling them everything. The torture, the abuse, the agony, all by the hands of two supposed heroes. You went over every grueling, painful detail, tears pouring down your face. 

They knew of your captors and torture before they even knew your name.

With every word, The league members, especially Dabi, became more and more disgusted and angry. You didn’t even finish when Spinner offered a kind hand for you to hold onto. 

“P-please,” you finally managed, “D-don’t send me back…”

Shigaraki scoffed, “Heroes think they can just do whatever they want huh? Well fuck ‘em. Eraserhead and Present Mic want their precious treasure back? Well too bad. It’s ours now.”

Big Sis Magne let out a happy laugh, “Oh good! Another girl! If you ask me, only having Toga around was getting to be too much.” She took your other free hand, “We’re gonna be such a good team, those nasty heroes won’t know what hit them.”

“I can’t wait to make them pay with their blood,” Toga smiled, her golden eyes shining with excitement. Dabi remained silent, but Spinner gave you a kind smile. “What a show it will be! You, coming face to face with those demons, and having us at your back!” The one with the mask, Mr.Compress, finally spoke, giving a theatrical hand wave.

With every word, you felt your shoulders get lighter. 

“Now,” The leader, your new leader, spoke up, “Tell me all about your quirk, and those pieces of garbage that hurt you.”

When Shouta and Hizashi returned home, they knew something was wrong. The house seemed...cold. You were not in the living room, nor the kitchen. 

They assumed this was one of your bad days. Where you’d sleep until it was late at night, only so you can avoid them.

Quickly, that changed. 

The closer Shouta got to your door, the more he felt his gut twist. The air seemed wet and almost humid.

“Hey, are you awake in there?” He knocked, concerned, “I’m coming in!” 

When he opened the door, the wet air made sense. Your window was open, rain poured in from the storm outside. The carpet and everything else by the window was soaked, giving the hero a clue that you’ve been gone a while. 

“HIZASHI!” The black haired male called out, darting into the room. Desperately he looked around, only to look up when he heard his husband cry out. 

“She’s gone! Our songbird is gone!!” He panicked, aiding Shouta in his desperate search. The couple tore apart the house, hoping this was something else. Hoping you didn’t leave through the window. 

They hoped and prayed, only for their optimism to be dashed when their search turned up empty. 

“We need to go after her!” The blonde hero cried, “s-she could be hurt! She doesn’t know how to take care of herself!!” 

Shouta was already preparing to venture outside. He was at the door when he turned to look at his severely distressed husband, “stay here. In case she comes back, I’ll go look for her.” 

With that, Eraserhead ran out of the front door of the house, hoping to find you in the woods. 

Days became weeks became months. With every passing hour, you felt happier and lighter. Your spirit and soul were healing. It will take time, but you knew you were able to recover. You had escaped, and found a family who would ride or die with you. 

You’d ride or die with them. 

Spinner was especially kind to you. He was a gentleman, always asking before touching. You spent most of your free time with him when he or you weren’t gone collecting information or searching for members. 

You still weren't comfortable going on missions by yourself. Most of the them were with Dabi, Big Sis Magne or Jin, who you’d met shortly after your joining. Despite the short time with them, you felt like you belonged. You helped them, they helped you. You became a part of their family. 

They’d even gone so far as to get your cat Mochi back. Dabi simply dumped the kitty on your lap and walked away without saying anything. You missed your feline friend, and now in the league, he gets all the love the villains could muster. 

They try to keep sudden loud noises to a minimum. Occasionally a surprise yell or sound would happen, but someone was always quick to jump to your defense. 

It was mostly Shigaraki, but he’d apologize begrudgingly.

Even he wasn’t so bad. You had gone with Toga to get him a new controller, and he’s tolerated you ever since (maybe even respect you after you managed to beat him to a quick video game match). 

This was your life. This was your freedom. 

This was what you wanted. 

It’s been hell without you. Shouta and Hizashi were in hell. It’s been months since the eraser hero found your footprints surrounded by others. It’s been months of searching. Months of desperation to rescue you from your kidnappers. That’s the only logical reason for your disappearance. 

You were kidnapped. 

You needed them. You needed your lovers. 

But they couldn’t save you. 

Some nights Shouta would wake up alone. He’d be cold and lonely. Slowly he’d walk to your room, and find his blonde husband asleep, holding your favorite pillow. 

It stopped smelling like you a while ago. 

With every passing day their hope waned. With every passing hour their hearts ached. 

Shouta finally broke down one night. When he woke up alone again he wandered to your room, finding Hizashi in his usual position. Instead of being asleep, the blonde’s shoulders shook with muffled sobs and cries. 

The Eraser hero sat on the bed and held his husband, not bothering to muffle his own weeping. 

This isn’t what they wanted. 

The view from the roof was both beautiful and hilarious. You orchestrated a nomu attack, remaining hidden. Spinner was accompanying you. The others were scattered around the city, taking in the chaos. 

You remembered those roads and streets. You walked them for so long. 

Until those bastards stole you. 

Now, with your life in the league, you could stroll down the sidewalk again. You could see the sky and feel the sun. 

You could punish heroes for abandoning you. For letting you get kidnapped. 

A smile graced your lips. The chaos of the nomu was beautiful. 

There was a flash of black in the corner of your eye, and you turned your head. Slowly, your smile grew at the sight of Eraserhead struggling to take down the brutish monster. 

Only to have your smile fade when Present Mic saves him. 

“Ugh, I hate them.” You growled, “I see them and I hate them.” 

Spinner looked up from his spot on the roof. He swished his tail once before following your gaze to your distant tormentors.  

“You should put on a show,” he put a hand on your shoulder, “drive ‘em even more bat shit.”

You laughed warmly, the idea of breaking their hearts even more gave you infinite joy. 

“Mind if I use you?” You asked, preparing to use your quirk. 

With the villains you have gotten stronger. Your quirk was a weapon. A strong, powerful, useful weapon. 

You’re the opposite of what Shouta and Hizashi said over and over again. 

They can’t tell you that you're weak. Not anymore. 

There was a tipped over bus, and that’s where you planted the illusion. 

You and Spinner, hand in hand. 

Oh this is gonna be good. 

When they dealt with the Nomu, Hizashi looked to the bus, and even from a distance, you could see his eyes widen. 

“S-songbird!” 

You gagged, and Spinner laughed softly beside you.

Shouta looked up, meeting the illusions gaze. 

You feared he’d use his quirk, destroying your fun, but he didn’t, at least not in that instant. 

“G-get away from her!” The black haired male shouted, his black eyes trained on fake-spinner. 

“No,” the illusion spoke, “I think your precious songbird belongs to me.”

The illusion of spinner pulled illusion you closer. The illusion of you looking bashful.

Shouta prepared an attack, jumping up in the air to do so. Hizashi prepared his own quirk, apparently ok with sacrificing your well-being to get you. 

You cause fake-spinner to dip fake-you into a deep kiss. 

That was apparently distracting enough to cause Present Mic to choke on air, and Eraserhead to stumble and miss his attack. 

“Come on my sweet,” fake-you cooed, “let’s go.” 

You created one more illusion, covering the two fakes in smoke, making them disappear. 

As you finished with your quirk, you rubbed your temples. 

Spinner laughed beside you, “m-my sweet! Oh my god you killed me.” 

You gave a faint smile, that only grew when you heard Hizashi’s mournful howling. 

Spinner and you peered over the edge of the roof, and spotted the two of them breaking down. The blonde was wailing. You swear you saw his fat tears from your position. 

Shouta just looked broken. He looked absolutely devastated.

Maybe a long time ago that sight would have hurt you. 

You made eye contact with your partner next to you. 

“My sweet,” you teased, promptly bursting into laughter.

“Let’s go! Before they hear us!” Spinner tried to shush you, failing with his own giggling. 

You nodded and grabbed his hand. 

“Let’s go then,” you winked, “my sweet.”

The both of you fled, making your way to Jin and Toga. 

You smiled at the sight of them, only feeling happier as more of your family of villains got together. 

This is exactly where you wanted to be. 

A villain, to make those heroes suffer.

[dabi-drift]

Could we have a shy s/o who asks geten out on a date + relationship headcanons please, sorry if this is too much you can pick one or the other if you want✨ btw I love your work, always looking forward to your posts!

Ahh, this was such a cute concept to me! It’s a little longer than usual, and I spent virtually all day on it, so I hope it’s good! And thank youuuu!! That’s awesome, and so appreciated! ^^

Geten’s Shy S/O Asking Him Out:

❈ Your timidity was all-consuming, and really impacted on your social relations. When in a conversation, you'd find yourself unable to look the person in the eyes. Your gaze would drift to the ground, like you didn’t feel worthy enough to even give the illusion of being on their level. A raised head would've sent out the wrong signals. You didn’t want anyone thinking you over-confident, or a narcissist.

❈ Instead, you were seen as a quiet, obedient MLA member, who preferred lone training, but worried incessantly about fighting. After all, that meant interacting with people - something you absolutely did not support.

❈ As such, you'd only spoken with Geten two or three times, in passing. Yet, he was always on your mind. You wanted to extinguish your feelings so, so badly! He was a million times better than you - way out of your league! It was a wonder why you'd ever fallen in the first place. What was the point, when all you'd get was heartbreak?

❈ You were convinced that's all you'd ever get.

❈ But your heart just couldn’t let go.

❈ 3/4 of your word count were probably apologies, so you wouldn’t be surprised if he found you strange.

❈ Surely he wouldn’t want such a shy, soft-spoken partner?

❈ …But you just couldn’t let him go. If you never even tried to court him, he'd find someone else, and it'd destroy you! He was always on your mind, even when he shouldn’t be - you fawned over him, like a desperate fan. He was so strong, so pretty…a violent little cutie. From your rose-tinted perspective, he had no faults.

❈ That fiery attitude might disenchant the average admirer, but at this point, you were a veteran, in way too deep. What you felt…it was infinitely stronger than a crush. It never wavered…never faded.

❈ You had journals full of phrases like "I wish, with the might of all the stars, that you would look at me the way I look at you.", and short pieces proclaiming your love for him. And to really cement this point, you had his name written in hearts. Many hearts. Spanning like,, an entire journal.

❈ You almost worshipped him, as though he were a god, or an entire religion.

❈ …It wasn’t easy, being in love. You were resolved to tell him, but you couldn’t do that in a public area. You'd have to drag him somewhere more private. The thought made you flush. What if he grew suspicious? Or assumed you wanted to hurt him?? Nothing could've been further from the truth. But since you had trouble speaking, and your face would definitely be on fire…he'd be cautious, maybe even angry?

❈ Oh god, you did not want him to be angry! If that happened, you'd chicken out immediately. He'd have you running for the hills, getting the hell out of Deika City and never, ever showing your face there again. And in the worst case, the embarrassment and fear might force you out of Japan. You'd have to change your name, get a new social security number, find a new job and apartment…

❈ Why was it so difficult to confess?? You wanted to be so naturally eloquent with your words, so confident and clever, that he'd be compelled to swoon. You commanded greater mastery over the written word, but you needed to tell him in person. You needed him to hear, to feel the emotion behind them. You had to be taken seriously. You had to try.

❈ So try you did. You managed to catch him as he walked toward one of Deika's many training grounds. You were alone, save for the birds that chirped overhead. The frosty weather bit at your cheeks, but you couldn’t be deterred. Not anymore. It was now or never.

❈ You had the stage, and his full attention. It was so nerve-wracking!

❈ "Geten…! Um, I-I've really admired - uh, liked!...Loved! Yeah…um, I've…for a while now, a-and…I wanted to tell you…! So, uh…if it  i-isn't too much trouble, um…p-please go out with me!"

❈ You stood with a lowered head, uncomfortably basking in the silence that followed. You couldn’t meet his eyes, for fear of seeing an emotion you knew you wouldn’t be able to bear.

❈ "…Go out? Where would we go?"

❈ You looked up, mouth hanging open in shock. A light blush sat atop his cheeks…so he'd understood your feelings, at least.

❈ "U-Uh…it means…um…" Your voice got progressively quieter, as you realised that you had to teach him what a relationship actually was.

❈ "Speak up. You're hard to hear." He huffed, though he didn’t seem angry.

❈ Okay, so I don't have to move countries.

❈ "It's, um…d-d-dating…? It's m-more than friends, like uh…r-romantic…holding hands and k-k-kissing and stuff…!"

❈ He blushed harder, and despite his efforts to hide it under the fur of his Parka, you saw it. There was another round of silence, like he was considering the pros and cons of 'dating' you.

❈ Finally, he reached a decision.

❈ "I guess…I'll 'go out' with you."

& Relationship Headcanons: 

❈ This boy doesn't know a ton about love, so you're gonna have to teach him what it means to: 1) have a partner, and 2) show affection toward said partner. He's never been in a position quite like this before, so he's definitely a slow-starter.

❈ Make no mistake, though - he does love you. And due to both his ideology and strength, he's fiercely loyal and protective. If you have a 'weak' Meta Ability, he'll be a little disappointed (for the future generation, y'know?), but it just means he has to shield you from any and all dangers. It's a responsibility he cherishes. He's never really had to look out for anyone but himself, so it's a nice change of pace.

❈ Initially, he isn't sure about the whole 'dating' and 'lovers' thing. You're still incredibly shy, and whenever he tries to hold your hand, you go bright red and shuffle your feet awkwardly. He'll take that the wrong way.

❈ It takes many, many weeks for you to gather up the courage to ask for a kiss. Geten obliges almost instantly, but hesitates when he sees you shaking.

❈ It's more from excitement than embarrassment, but he doesn't know that.

❈ Of course you're excited! You're finally, finally gonna kiss the boy you love. But you're also nervous. It's your first kiss, after all. You want it to be perfect, but you're scared you're gonna mess up. And if you do, you're worried he'll hate you. If you mess up, you ruin the experience for two people.

❈ So you make 10000% sure he's okay with it, and you make him swear on his life that he won't be mad at you.

❈ He's of the opinion that you can always try again, but in your mind, it's a life or death scenario.

❈ If you take too long, over-think (no doubt you will) or start to falter, he'll just crash your lips together, albeit sloppily. He doesn't care about gentle or rough, messy or clean…as long as you're connected. He'll place one hand on your waist, and pin you to the wall. For someone so inexperienced, his movements gradually get more professional.

❈ In reality, he's researching this for you

❈ You'll snuggle up to Geten during the summer months, because despite his inability to create ice, his body temperature is still quite low.

❈ You get to see him without the Parka. No-one gets to see him without the Parka. Consider yourself a lucky, lucky bastard.

❈ Your shyness won't disappear, but around Geten, you definitely become more composed. After a few months, or even a year, that is. In the beginning, you're nothing but a nervous, stuttering wreck, who can't stand beside him for more than ten seconds without melting.

❈ Oh, you might want those plane tickets after all, because he's gonna find your journals eventually (when he's absolutely head-over-heals in love with you). Don't worry though, he'll think they're cute, and a testament to how amazing you are as a partner.

❈ Honestly, your heart holds so much value to him. He'll never, ever let you give it to someone else. He's whipped - completely, totally…and he isn't afraid to admit it!

❈ Once the PLF is formed, he'll seek you out to join the Violet Regiment (but be in the same room as Dabi, and blood will be shed).

❈ Everyone headcanons him as Geten's biggest romantic rival, and I'm not here to argue with that

❈ He's bad with words, so he'll rely on actions! Just don't expect any PDA (unless he's jealous)!! <3

Finding a Dream - A Super Sons Story

Synopsis: Jon has to support and comfort Damian, who’s begun to have recurring dreams of a friend he was supposed to have…a friend that doesn’t exist in this timeline…a boy named Colin Wilkes.

This is my first serious Damijon fic, so I hope you guys enjoy :D

“Damian, slow down!”

“Ironic, considering you’re the one with super speed. I’m leaving you behind if you don’t keep up!”

Jon sighed in resignation as Damian ran ahead of him. They were at an abandoned warehouse this time, another late night out in Damian’s frenzied search for someone who seemed to never actually be there. Damian leaped atop a stack of container vans, meticulously searching for any clues. Jon trudged behind him, trying his best to pretend he didn’t want to go home. Not that Damian was stopping him, but he was too worried about his friend to even consider leaving.

“What are we looking for?” Jon asked.

“Containers that have Santa Priscan labels. Crates designed to hold vials of chemicals. This is supposed to be where Scarecrow performed his Venom experiments on him.” Damian didn’t bother to check up on Jon as he jumped onto another crate.

“Right…”

Jon didn’t understand everything that Damian had said, but he didn’t feel very compelled to have Damian explain it all over again. He also didn’t want to point out that if this place had indeed been used as a villain’s lair in the past, Damian, his father, the Gotham Police Department, and even the entire Justice League would have had a record on it.

But there weren’t any records of it at all—Damian had rushed here based solely on a vague recollection from the night before.

Damian was chasing the wisp of a dream, and Jon—for better or worse—was there to watch him.

I’m not making this up! He’s real, he has a name, and we fought crime side-by-side!

That was what Damian had told Jon when the dreams had started. Jon shook his head—at first, he’d been very supportive when Damian had set out on his search, enthusiastically helping the Boy Wonder comb through alleys and rooftops for any sign of the friend that he’d dreamt about. But even a ten-year-old like Jon knew when something was pointless. Fragments of a half-forgotten dream weren’t much to go on.

It had all begun when Wally West had visited them together with their fathers. As a Flash, Wally had experienced…a lot of weird things, to say the least, the most recent of which was how he’d just returned from getting lost in the Speed Force. He’d said that the world—and time—that he’d come back to was extremely different. A lot of things had changed.  

The world that Wally had remembered hadn’t had Jon in it, the members of the Justice League had been much older, and a lot of the major events, villains and battles that had been fought had either happened differently or had never happened at all.

Jon’s father had said the same thing—that his family, like Wally, currently live in a time that was different from the one that they’d come from. It was an extremely confusing concept for Jon to grasp.

After a while of listening to the adults discuss the matter, Damian had excused himself, complaining of a headache. The next day, Damian was already telling Jon about a dream that he’d had—one that he’d adamantly claimed had been too vivid to possibly be anything imaginary.

At first, Damian had spoken of a lonely orphan clutching a teddy bear. The next day, the orphan gained strikingly red hair. And as the nights went on, the red-haired boy in Damian’s dreams gained a freckled face, a soothing voice, and then a name.

“Do you know him?” Jon had asked.

“His name…his name is…Colin,” Damian said carefully as his brow furrowed in concentration.

“Who’s Colin?”

“He was my…friend.”

So the mystery had begun. Damian had records of the time that he’d spent in Gotham ever since he’d become Robin. After the dreams, he’d had vague recollections of meeting, rescuing, and befriending this boy called Colin Wilkes…but there was nothing on the Bat Computer’s database—or any computer’s database—that held records of any orphan by that name who’d ever been rescued by Batman and Robin.

Adding to the mystery was the fact that Damian remembered meeting Colin back when he was still ten years old, but now he was thirteen—and Colin seemed to have vanished for those three years. Damian now had no other recollection of Colin ever since then, or any idea of how and why he’d even forgotten him in the first place. Not even Batman or Alfred remembered, and they’d certainly be aware if Damian had made a new friend, considering how rare an event that was.

As Jon understood the matter, Damian was remembering having a friend who’d never existed.

It was almost Jon’s bedtime and he’d just gotten into his pajamas. The crickets were chirping outside their house in Hamilton County, adding a subtly relaxing hum to the quiet evening. He was just about to close his eyes when a shrill ring pierced his tired ears—a call from Damian.

“I have a new location,” Damian’s voice buzzed in Jon’s phone.

“What makes you so sure?” Jon asked skeptically. He yawned and hoped that Damian would drop the issue altogether. “The warehouse was a dud, searching all those hospital files last week turned up nothing, and all those times we searched random alleys and buildings didn’t help, either. Dad’s starting to ask me what we’re up to…”

“You don’t get it,” Damian replied scathingly. “There’s a pattern. The things I remember are marking a path. They’re all places that I remember where we went together. This next one will be significantly important. If we keep at it, I can triangulate his possible location. I don’t care if you’re not coming.”

Jon sighed in irritation. “What’s the point of you calling me, then? You know I can’t leave you alone now that you’ve told me!”

“Be here at ten.”

Jon rolled his eyes—he could imagine Damian smirking at him. It wasn’t very easy being friends with the son of Batman.

A few hours later, Damian was already leading Jon to the outskirts of Gotham. The dirt roads and the lack of buildings that weren’t run-down gave Jon a sense of unease, but he held his misgivings in light of Damian’s mood. The older boy seemed more serious than usual today, or at the very least, more certain.

“So…what are we looking at?” Jon asked as they stopped in front of a derelict two-story building. From what Jon could tell, it was quite old, and constructed with mostly wood and bricks rather than concrete. Of course, he conceded that he might have been wrong, considering that the wreck in front of them was a barely-standing charred husk of whatever it used to be.

“An orphanage. I dreamt that—no, I remember—this was where he lived before we met,” Damian answered confidently.

“But Damian,” Jon carefully ventured, hoping that Damian wouldn’t get upset, “we already checked the registers of all the orphanages in the entire state on the Bat Computer, remember? There wasn’t a Colin Wilkes in any of them.”

Damian resolutely walked ahead, forcing Jon to trot after him.

“Damian, wait up!”

Damian ignored Jon’s plea as he went inside. “When I saw this place in my dreams, I immediately looked through old news reports—it burned down three years ago, and since they lacked funds, the caretakers never digitized their records. Before that, it was also the center of a trafficking scandal. Children disappearing, never to be found. Police thought that the arson was a cover-up.”

“Weren’t you supposed to have met Colin three years ago?” Jon asked, the doubt in his voice quite evident.

“More or less,” Damian replied as he carefully shoved aside some burnt wooden beams. “I know what you’re thinking. This couldn’t have been where Colin was if it burned down the same time we’d met. But it stands to reason that he could still have a connection to this place. There must be a clue here that leads to him somehow.”

Whatever burned the orphanage wasn’t exactly thorough. Some rooms were barely damaged and still had the scattered possessions of its former inhabitants intact. Damian had guessed that whoever had committed the arson wasn’t trying to erase evidence so much as trying to scare anyone from actually poking around.

The boys came across a room that was littered with debris. Jon thought that it was rather unremarkable, but Damian seemed to have found something. He returned with a dusty brown teddy bear clutched in his hands.

“Damian, I don’t want to judge your taste in toys…but I don’t think now’s the best time to bring that around,” Jon hesitantly said.

Damian held the toy up to his face and explained, “When Colin still couldn’t control his powers, only the sight of his teddy bear would calm his rampage. This was his totem, in a way. His teddy bear was the only thing that tethered him to his true self.”

“Are you saying there’s a chance Colin might go crazy on us?”

“I’m just taking precautions,” Damian said as he tried to pat the bear clean.

Just then, they heard a creaking noise from the roof. It sounded like the bow of a huge ship bending beyond its limits, and they could hear wood splintering and bursting apart. A loud crash erupted from the second floor, prompting both boys to duck for cover.

“I don’t know about this—this place looks like it could collapse at any second,” Jon said worriedly.

Damian didn’t immediately reply. Instead, he approached a bureau and pulled out its cabinets. The contents seemed mostly unburnt.

Then he asked, “Do you want to leave?”

Jon blinked. He couldn’t tell what Damian was thinking with his back turned. Nevertheless, his response was brimming with confidence.

“Of course not.”

“Thanks…”

Jon smiled. Damian’s voice was faint, but even without his super hearing, Jon could hear the gratitude behind it. Damian almost never expressed gratitude, so when he did, it was a huge deal. Right then, there was nowhere else that Jon would rather be.

“It stinks down here,” Jon hissed as each step he took echoed across the hall.

“Your super smelling doesn’t seem so useful.”

“I don’t have super smelling!”

“Then can you at least be super quiet?”

Jon simply snorted in reply.

When they had searched the ruined orphanage, Damian and Jon hadn’t found anything significant—no clues that might have pointed them to Colin. But Damian had been undeterred and had insisted upon searching the surrounding area. It was then that he’d found an uneven patch of dirt that suspiciously continued some distance away.

Using Jon’s still-developing X-ray vision, they’d confirmed that the indentation was a trail of sorts made by people and vehicles. It was likely that whoever was using that exact route had done it so many times that when the dirt, snow, and mud began to cover it up after some time, the path had accumulated much less dirt than the surrounding area.

The boys had followed the path until it led them to a sewer entrance that was relatively hidden from the rest of Gotham—one that Damian had inexplicably become familiar with only after they’d gotten there.

“Why do we have to wade in a sewer, Damian? I don’t think Colin would live here!”

“I saw this place in my dreams,” Damian replied warily, as if trying to reassure himself.

“Somehow, that doesn’t fill me with confidence,” Jon sarcastically replied. Each step that he took made a disgustingly wet squelch against the thin film of muck that covered the floor. He began thinking of ways to explain to his mother why he definitely needed new sneakers after this.

“No, this is…different,” Damian replied. He stopped in his tracks and fished out a couple of birdarangs from his utility belt, prompting Jon to be on guard as well. “This place isn’t where Colin could be. This place…it’s where we took down a dangerous criminal.”

“But that was years ago, right? No one could possibly be here now, so why are you getting all nervous? You’re putting me on edge here…”

Damian carefully observed the concrete walls around them. The area that they were traversing was a wide cavernous hall, with several smaller passages branching off to the sides. The only light sources were small utility lamps placed high in the ceiling, spread few and far between. This appeared to be Gotham’s main floodway, used for diverting floodwater during extremely heavy rains. But it hadn’t rained enough to cause a flood in Gotham for nearly a decade, meaning that this part of the sewer was mostly unused. It would make a good hideout for criminal elements.

“You’re still carrying that bear around,” Jon remarked.

“I told you that it could be useful if we find Colin.”

“I think you just want to keep it—”

“Shhh! Stay close. They’re everywhere,” Damian whispered.

“Who’s ‘they’?” Jon asked apprehensively. He looked around but saw nothing, making him even more nervous.

Damian lowered his stance and took a few cautious steps before answering. “I’ve been thoroughly trained to conduct stealthy surveillance. I know amateurs when I see them. They’ve been following us for a few minutes now.”

“I—I never noticed.” Jon gulped anxiously.

“It doesn’t matter. You never grew up with the League of Assassins.”

They eventually emerged from the large tunnel into an even more massive cistern, which Damian guessed was where all the city’s drained rainwater would have been collected. A multitude of makeshift lamps lined the whole circular area, casting an eerie but bright glow on the lifeless gray concrete. The dome ceiling extended almost thirty feet high, but the atmosphere still felt heavy, oppressive and suffocating.

The most noticeable feature of the cistern, however, was what appeared to be a small arena in the very middle, surrounded by several cages. Jon could clearly hear mewling, sniffling and crying coming from within them.

“Damian, those cages! Those are…!”

“Children—forced to fight to the death in some macabre game, all for the entertainment of wealthy patrons,” Damian spat through gritted teeth.

Suddenly, a disturbingly jovial voice echoed throughout the whole area.

“How very smart of you to figure that out, little boy!”

From a tunnel to the southwest came out a tall, shirtless bald man, his entire upper body covered with gruesome scars and stitches that looked like tally marks. All around him, several other burly men came out of hiding from the other tunnels, all wielding guns and knives of different kinds.

The man continued: “But I really have to ask you, how is it that two random young boys in an unfortunate misadventure happen to accurately guess my thriving little business model?”

“Business?” Jon seethed. “You’re sick! These kids are in pain! They’re hurt! And you…you…!”

“Victor Zsasz.” Damian’s voice was dripping with vitriol.

Zsasz cocked his head. “Have we…met?”

“I believe we have,” Damian replied, his tone unwavering despite the obvious hatred coursing through him. “I seem to remember cutting your stomach open and you lying on the floor in a pool of your own blood. I’m glad to see you’re looking well—I’ll have the pleasure of doing it again.”

“Damian!” Jon gasped. He’d never seen Damian this…deadly before. He was projecting a cold and calm fury that threatened to lash out at any moment.

A shiver ran through Zsasz’s men as they murmured among themselves. Zsasz himself seemed unperturbed and walked toward the two boys until he was only a foot away. He regarded them intently for a few seconds, before laughing heartily.

“Hahahaha!”

His laugh rang hollow in the cavernous cistern, and his men gripped their weapons even tighter. Jon was beginning to get scared—what exactly had Damian gotten him into?

“Kid, you’ve got guts saying that to me,” Zsasz said after catching his breath. “I think I might just like to see them for myself, even. So, that outfit…Robin, huh? Has the Bat finally found me out after all these years? But if he has, where is he? Did he really think his errand boy was enough? Or did you not tell him about this trip?”

“No, we’re alone,” Damian replied, somehow sounding almost happy with the fact.

“Naughty little Robin, aren’t you? I might have to carve some respect into your skin…” Zsasz sighed as he licked his lips. He relished looking down at the two shorter boys as he casually played with a sharp dagger in his hands.

“Like I said, I already beat you to the ground once before. We put you away in Arkham.”

“Odd,” Zsasz replied. “I think I’d remember being incarcerated or being grievously injured by such a petulant child. I’ve never been caught by Batman all these years. Are you sure you aren’t daydreaming?”

Jon saw Damian’s arm twitch. His recollection of this man, just like all the others, must have indeed been from one of his dreams again.

“And you—dressed up like Superman are we, boy?” Zsasz continued, turning to Jon. “What are you, some kind of fan who can’t get enough of the Blue Boyscout? Did Robin trick you into some make-believe game?”

“Why I oughtta—!”

“Don’t encourage him,” Damian chided Jon as he grabbed the younger boy’s shoulder.

“Well, well…” Zsasz’s men surrounded them, all sporting sickening looks. Zsasz gave them a toothy grin as he pointed the dagger at the boys.

“I’ve made a fun little show here with kids like you beating each other to a pulp. It pays us good money from certain clients. But don’t get me wrong, it’s not just the money—I also love it. You two will make fine additions to our little stable…unless you want to bleed to death where you stand.”

“Before we start this,” Damian began, his fury giving him an air of extreme emotionless focus, “I wanted to ask if you’ve ever kidnapped a boy with red hair. He goes by Colin Wilkes, an orphan. He used to live in the orphanage near here where you frequently abducted kids. He almost always carries a teddy bear like this with him.”

Damian held up the bear with one hand. Zsasz then reached out and grabbed the teddy bear, causing Jon to step back in surprise. For Jon, it was quite unnerving how Damian had let Zsasz take it, but it was even more disturbing that Damian didn’t even flinch.

“Hmm, you’re a sharp one, Robin,” Zsasz replied inquisitively. “I’d thought that burning the place down would cover our tracks. But to answer your question, no—I remember every kid that we collect. I’ve even made a mark on my skin for each one that died. None of them have—or had—red hair…unless you count the ones with blood coming out of their heads.”

With a grin and deftness that could only come from experience, Zsasz slashed the teddy bear across the throat, decapitating it. He let the rest of the body drop to the floor, the wet splash it made in the muck creating a menacing echo across the entire cistern.

Damian stared at the mutilated toy as if he could see something that no one else could. He didn’t even pay attention to Zsasz, who was waiting for and expecting a violent reaction. To everyone that was there, Damian looked like he’d momentarily spaced out as he stared intently at the soiled bear.

However, Jon knew better. His enhanced senses could definitely hear how Damian’s pulse had quickened, how the fabric of Damian’s gauntlets squeezed against itself as Damian’s hand balled up into an extremely tight fist. Damian’s face had looked calm, but Jon knew the truth—something vicious had awakened inside his friend.

Finally, after some seconds of incredibly tense silence, Damian calmly answered. “I appreciate the honesty, Zsasz.”

He then turned to Jon and commanded: “Rescue the children.”

Jon had barely nodded when three lethally sharp birdarangs zipped past his head and embedded themselves into the faces of the three nearest henchmen.

“Yaaaagh!”

Masked by the commotion and screams of pain, Jon leaped out of the fray with his superhuman strength and ran toward the cages. He looked back just in time to see two of the henchmen running after him, one brandishing a gun, and the other, a knife. Back near the entrance, Damian was performing a deadly dance, weaving through and around the rest of the grunts together with Zsasz, splatters of blood flying every which way almost every other second.

When Jon had stopped to face his assailants, one of them immediately tried to slash his face, so he’d rolled to the side. Just as he’d gotten to his feet, a gunshot rang out and he’d had to leap backward with a bit of his super speed—there was a bullet hole in the floor where he’d been just moments before.

They’re really trying to kill me, Jon thought. He was in a precarious situation. He may be the son of the invincible Superman, but his own invincibility had not yet fully developed and it seemingly manifested at random. But the stakes were too high now. If he failed, he’d die, the children would die, Damian would…probably also die. Now he had to focus. He needed to be a hero, invincibility be damned.

Jon breathed in, and with renewed determination, lunged at the grunt with a gun. He dodged a wide jab and then threw a punch of his own at the man’s torso. The man was knocked off his feet and lay sprawled a few yards away. Even with his super strength, Jon was always practicing control, just as his father had taught him—especially against other humans.

Before Jon could turn to look, the knife-wielding man suddenly threw a fierce kick to his ribs, knocking him over and forcing him to bend over in pain. Still clutching his side, Jon got up just in time to dodge a wild swing with the knife, then another, and another. He’d lost his concentration, and the throbbing pain in his ribs made it difficult to think. He managed to parry one of the man’s attacks and throw a punch of his own, but his power had left him in his flustered state and he did little to harm the man.

Jon and the man traded a few more blows before he got caught in a particularly nasty punch to his shoulder. He fell to the floor again, and just as he looked up, he heard the sound of a gun being cocked. The other man had recovered and was pressing the barrel of his gun squarely against his forehead.

Bang!

Jon blinked. Well, I’m not dead, He assured himself with extreme relief.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

More gunshots, and more squashed bullets falling to the floor. Jon could feel something inconsequentially soft flicking his forehead as if someone was repeatedly poking it with their finger.

“W-what are you?” shouted the flustered henchman, his eyes quivering in fear.

With equal parts relief and unchecked anger, Jon replied by forcefully throwing a punch to the man’s chest and sending him flying across the cistern. The wall he’d crashed into audibly cracked.

Behind him, he felt a dull thud on his shoulder. He turned around to see the other henchman staring in disbelief at his knife, which had bent at an odd angle after failing to pierce Jon’s skin.

I’m lucky. Jon thought. I have my invulnerability, but the other kids here don’t. And these men just kill and torture them for fun…

With his eyes glowing crimson, he glared furiously at the whimpering grunt.

“I won’t forgive you!”

Faster than the eye could see, he grabbed the man by the arm and threw him back across one of the tunnels with inhuman strength. The unfortunate grunt disappeared into the darkness after a particularly loud clatter of metal and concrete.

Jon exhaled to compose himself and ran back toward the cages. With his heat vision, he melted the locks and ushered the captive children to hide in one of the access tunnels. Then he ran back to help Damian.

“Damian! Are you oka—?”

The scene in front of Jon made his throat run dry. The floor was littered with the broken bodies of Zsasz’s men. Many of them had their faces horribly beaten. A couple had birdarangs lodged into their eyes. One had three knives piercing his shoulder. The sludge had mixed with all the blood, turning it into a garish hue of red. Jon rushed to them and confirmed that they were breathing—they all seemed alive, if barely. Finally, Jon looked back at Damian.

The young hero was standing as calmly as he’d had before he and Jon had separated. Damian had barely a scratch on him, and his face was spattered with blood—none of which was his own, it seemed—while sporting a perfectly impassive look. Directly across him was Zsasz, who was clutching an arm dripping with blood. He looked quite the worse for wear, with more than a dozen cuts across his whole body, and limping on one foot. More disturbingly, Damian held Zsasz’s long dagger in his hand.

“Heh, you’re a riot, boy,” Zsasz wheezed. “You would have made a great show here, gutting all the other kids…”

Before Zsasz could say another word, Damian pounced.

Jon could see it, he could hear it—Damian’s sure but steady heartbeat, his increased breathing—this was dangerous. Jon was certain that Damian was out to kill.  

“Damian, don’t!”

But before Jon could stop him, Zsasz let out a shrill scream in agony.

“Yaaaaagh!”

Jon rushed as fast as he could, using his super speed to tackle Damian to the floor. But he knew that he was too late.

“Damian…what have you done?” Jon asked in disbelief.

“Ask him yourself,” Damian replied wearily.

Confused, Jon got off Damian and carefully walked over to Zsasz, who was slumped against the wall. The man had his hands over his head, both of which had been pierced—one on top of the other—held together by his own dagger. Damian’s stab had been so forceful that the blade even penetrated the mortar between two blocks of the wall’s concrete, effectively pinning Zsasz in place.

“Hah…even after all that, you still don’t have what it takes to finish the job,” Zsasz huffed. He was finding it difficult to breathe.

Damian casually walked up to him and nonchalantly kicked him in the face. Zsasz passed out.

“Damian!” Jon chided.

“He’ll live,” Damian said. “I’ve signaled my father. He’ll be here with the Gotham PD in a while. We’re leaving.”

“Just like that?” Jon asked cautiously. He sensed that Damian was very…out of sorts, to say the least. “What about finding clues or…”

“It’s pointless,” Damian muttered. He sat back down on the cold floor and leaned against the wall. “I’m tired. I’m tired of all this. Tired of being proven wrong by my dreams, tired of thinking they were ever memories.

“My dreams showed me that we’d already dealt with Zsasz before, both Colin and I, and later with my father. It didn’t make sense that he was still at large here, and having no memories of all the times that we’d caught him. Him not remembering ever facing me or Colin made no sense at all. Colin never being in any records or anything else made no sense either.”

Jon listened silently as Damian went on.

“The only way that any of this makes sense is if none of it ever happened—defeating Zsasz, meeting Colin, being…friends with Colin.”

“Damian…” Jon reached out with his arm but stopped midway. He didn’t know if Damian would appreciate a hand on his shoulder in the middle of such an awkwardly miserable situation.

“None of what I remembered had ever happened. And Colin…Colin never existed,” Damian stood up and turned his back on Jon. “I’m tired, Jon. I’m going home. I just wasted your time.”

“Damian, I…I’m sorry…” Jon’s voice trailed off—Damian had already run ahead and completely missed his reply. He balled up his fists in frustration—why was it so hard to say anything comforting to Damian?

“I don’t see the ‘important reason’ you talked about on the phone,” Damian complained out of boredom.

“It’s important enough that I skipped school today just for it…for you,” Jon replied cheerfully.

“Tt.”

“You’ll see,” Jon assured Damian by patting him on the shoulder. He cringed, but didn’t retaliate, which Jon took for a good sign.

The boys were standing outside a hallway in Gotham Academy, just before the final bell had rung that day. It had been a couple of weeks since their encounter with Zsasz, and Damian hadn’t talked to Jon at all since then. But a few days ago, something incredible had happened at Jon’s school, and he’d called Damian, urgently asking his friend to come with him to Gotham Academy.

Rrrrring!

With the final bell, the students began milling out of their classrooms, filling the air with a hundred excited chattering voices.

“If this is your way of trying to get me into a classroom instead of homeschool, then you’re failing miserably—”

“Damian,” Jon interrupted and placed his hands on each side of Damian’s head to point him in the right direction. “I think I’ve found your friend.”

And just as Jon had said it, Damian saw a tall, lanky boy come out of one of the classrooms, his head crowned by wavy red hair. Freckles peppered his face and he had bright eyes that radiated warmth and kindness.

Damian could only say a single word.

“Colin…”

With both boys focused on Colin, they were able to hear the redhead’s conversation with some of his peers.

“Yeah, I’ll meet you guys tomorrow in the council room. Bring the drafts, okay?”

“Sure, Colin! Are you going to bring the sixth-graders again?”

“Of course! Please be patient with them—we’ll need to have new members eventually anyway, and this is the best way to expose them early.”

Damian turned away from the scene, his face an unfathomable mask of confusion.

“I don’t get it, Jon. How…? How did you find out? Why here?”

“A couple of days ago, some eighth-graders from Gotham Academy showed up at our school. Turns out they’d won some sort of environment contest or something, and as part of that, they have to tell other schools in the country about how to protect nature and stuff.

“Colin was their leader. He was on stage the longest. He introduced himself—Colin Wilkes, he said, and he looked exactly like how you said he did.”

“He looks a lot taller than I remembered,” Damian muttered as he chose to stare at an unremarkable spot on the floor.

“Well, he’s thirteen now, just like you, and you’re not exactly on the tall side—oww!” Jon rubbed the spot on his arm where Damian had just hit him.

“Why couldn’t we find him before?” Damian persisted. “We searched all the records…”

“Damian, what we searched were orphanage records, police reports, and hospital lists. We never searched schools,” Jon said as calmly as he could. He could clearly see that Damian was upset. “We were searching for Colin the kidnapped orphan. But all this time, he was Colin, the normal boy.”

“I’d already asked one of the teachers here,” he continued. “Colin was never orphaned. He was always a smart student who went out of his way to help people. He’s the president of the school’s Nature Society and a lot of the younger students really look up to him. Well, I think he’s really cool, too…you should’ve seen him when he went to our school…”

Damian gave no indication that he was listening as he watched one of the younger students approach Colin and happily talk to him about some mundane matter that Damian didn’t care about. All that he saw was that Colin was smiling, laughing, and completely at peace. Damian shook his head—he’d made up his mind.

“He looks happy here,” Damian said finally.

“Yeah, want me to call him over?” Jon asked with childlike enthusiasm.

“No, we’re leaving, and we’re never coming back.”

“What?” Jon replied sharply. “We’ve come all this way! We finally found him! Why can’t you just talk to him? Why are we leaving?”

Damian walked back out the school’s main doors with Jon in tow. He breathed in deeply without answering, as if he was also trying to convince himself.

The Colin that I’d met was an orphan. He’d been kidnapped and tortured and experimented on. He’d been injected with chemicals and forced to fight against his will. He’d seen his friends die at the hands of Zsasz, and had afterwards felt that he needed to sacrifice having the normal life of a child in order to fight crime. To be like me.

We’d met because of his suffering. If never meeting me in the first place means he gets spared all that, I’d gladly walk away. It’s just as Wally said—somehow, some way, time changed. The Colin I’d known was from a different time. This Colin right now is different, too—he’s happy. I won’t ruin that for him.

“Damian, this is important to you. He’s important to you. Don’t just waste this chance to start over!” Jon pleaded once more.

“He’s better off not having me for a friend, Jon. With the kind of friendship we’ve had before, and with the kind of life I lead now, it’s safer that way,” Damian concluded. Without waiting for Jon’s rebuttal, he walked away.

Jon fumed as he crossed his arms, staring angrily at Damian’s silhouette.

“Idiot. It’s not better for you.”

“Master Damian, there’s someone you should probably see.”

“Do I have a choice, Alfred?” Damian asked cynically. He’d been stewing in his room for a few days. For once, he’d actually kept his promise to his father to focus on his homeschooling—if only to distract himself—and Alfred’s unwelcome interruption was quite vexing.

“He was asking for Mr. Wayne, but since your father is away, I’d thought that you could entertain our guest. Perhaps you could even make a new friend.”

“A friend…?” Damian looked up at the old butler. “What do you mean?”

“He’s a young man that looks to be around your age, if only slightly taller…”

Damian’s curiosity got the better of him as he purposefully marched toward the foyer. There, seated on one of the sofas, was a tall lanky boy with wavy red hair, his freckles standing out against the shade of pink on his cheeks. He looked quite unused to the Wayne Manor’s extravagant trappings. When he saw Damian, he bowed.

“Uhm, Mr. Wayne, sir…? I’m sorry to barge in like this but I was told that—”

“Colin…?” Damian sputtered. “What are you doing here?”

Colin stared quizzically at Damian. “You know my name….?”

Jon Kent, what have you done this time? Damian immediately thought. This was definitely his young friend’s doing. Damian’s incredulity at Jon’s scheme left him speechless, which Colin mistook for a sign to continue.

“Uh, funny story, actually. One of the kids we’d met in our awareness tours called me up and said that the Wayne Foundation was looking for student partners with environmental advocacies for scholarships and such. He told me to go to this address and—sorry, is this a bad time, Mr. Wayne?”

Colin was wearing a semi-formal outfit with a neatly-pressed long-sleeved shirt and a matching tie. He had a smile that belied a hint of nerves, but his expression was radiant and full of hope. Damian thought to himself that Colin looked better that way.

“Mr. Wayne is my father. He’s currently out at work. But…I could keep you company in the meantime, I suppose. If you don’t mind, that is.”

“Not at all, uh, uhm….”

“I’m Damian,” Damian said with a half-smirk that passed for a smile.

He offered his hand and Colin gladly shook it. Damian mused that Colin’s hands were warm and friendly, and briefly wondered if it had always been that way. It was a calming sense of touch that he could get used to.

Colin serenely met Damian’s eyes, and beamed.

“Damian, huh? That’s a cool name.”

 Author’s notes:

Here’s a little background on this story. Jon Kent as we know him today is meant to be Damian’s sole almost-same-aged friend (boyfriend). But before Jon, we had Colin Wilkes.

Colin first appeared in the late 2000s before the new 52. His story was pretty dark—while Jon was cheerful, sunny and innocently carefree, Colin was an orphan who was kidnapped and experimented on by Scarecrow. He was injected with a version of Bane’s Venom, turning him into a mindless fighting machine before being subdued and rescued by Batman. After learning to control his Venom-induced powers, He later teamed up with Robin to defeat Victor Zsasz, who at the time was running a deadly child gladiator arena.

Despite his brief appearance in the comics, there’s a consensus among a lot of fans that Colin was one of Damian’s more significant first friends outside of the Batfamily. For my friends and many others, Colin would be the natural team up for Damian, both as friends and potential partners (both in and out of bed)

But when the New 52 reboot in 2011 came, many of DC’s heroes’ histories were reset, and Damian’s adventures with Colin were written out of continuity, as was Colin himself. When the DC Rebirth reboot happened in 2016, DC reinstated some old elements from before the New 52 continuity into the main timeline and mixing the two to create a balance of what fans wanted. This was most notable with Superman (who has been established as the classic Superman from the 80’s 90’s), whose history was restored but had the new addition of Jon as his son and the element of fatherhood and family in his character. Another was Wally West, who had all but disappeared during the New 52. He was reinstated in Rebirth as one of the only people who was aware that the timeline had changed (signified by the reboots). His earliest Rebirth stories involve him informing other heroes of the change in their timeline.

Even with Rebirth however, Colin was still missing from continuity, and is unlikely to make a return. Some fans of the Damian x Colin ship are still hoping, though, and I do believe that if Colin is ever going to return, it would be perfect in the just-released series of Super Sons featuring Damian and Jon.

Tl;dr

Colin was Damian’s first real friend two reboots ago, meaning they were friends from another previous timeline. With the latest reboot of DC Rebirth returning some old beloved concepts from before the reboots, I just thought that it was a bit plausible to have Colin return to Damian’s life, and I just imagined it in the most realistic and character-building scenario that I could.

On the 9th Day of Jetsmas, my true love gave to me…

New Post has been published on https://nhlrumormill.com/on-the-9th-day-of-jetsmas-my-true-love-gave-to-me/

On the 9th Day of Jetsmas, my true love gave to me…

Nine first round draft picks.

Since the Winnipeg Jets returned from sunny Hotlanta, they’ve had their hands full restocking the metaphorical pantry. A big part of any draft and develop program is making key selections in the first round, and that’s what we’ll be looking at today, this 9th day of Jetsmas, 2018. We’re going to go in reverse chronological order, because heck your rules.

2017 – 24th overall – Kristian Vesalainen – RW – Finland

Kristian Vesalainen has a big presence, and he’s hard to push around. Listed at 6’4″ and 207 lbs, he’s built like a classic power forward, and has the potential to blossom into one. He plays fast, with great energy, and a solid compete level. His shot and release are considered very strong, and he’s capable of a huge amount of dynamic offense. Hailing from Helsinki Finland, Vesalainen is the most recent of Winnipeg’s three European first round picks. It’s still early to evaluate him much, but he’s currently ripping it up in the KHL for Jokerit, after a brief stint with the AHL’s Manitoba Moose.

  2016 – 18th overall – Logan Stanley – D – Canada

If you thought Vesalainen was a big body, prepare to be floored by the towering presence of Logan Stanley. He’s a statuesque 6’7″, and listed at 231 lbs, so he’s a veritable mountain of man on the blue line. Some players of his size seem reluctant to get physical, but that’s not been a problem with Stanley, as he’s not afraid to use the body to clear the crease, or take control along the boards. As with most players with his exceptional height, his development process has been slower, but he’s shown measurable progress. You can catch a peek of Stanley’s work at any Moose game.

  2016 – 2nd overall – Patrik Laine – RW – Finland

The highest draft pick Winnipeg has had since its return, and they had the magic of the lottery to thank for it. Slated to pick 6th overall, a little luck pushed them up to number two, giving them the opportunity to draft elite sniper prospect, Patrik Laine. Known for having an incredibly quick and powerful release that is in a league of its own, Laine was able to jump directly onto a young Jets roster and start making contributions almost immediately. Having played hockey as a goaltender until the age of 12, it’s pretty remarkable how quickly he was able to transition to playing forward. In just two and half NHL seasons, he has 101 goals and 161 points in 185 games, and is a crucial component of the Jets top power play unit. A one-of-a-kind hockey talent, Patrik Laine has certainly left his mark already.

  2015 – 25th overall – Jack Roslovic – C – United States

The Winnipeg Jets selected Jack Roslovic, a right shot forward from Columbus, Ohio, with the pick they received in the blockbuster deal that shipped Evander Kane to the Buffalo Sabres. He made his Jets debut in his hometown on April 6, 2017, the lone game he played in a Jets jersey that season, despite leading the Manitoba Moose with 48 points. Key aspects to his game include elite straightaway speed, and an excellent eye for playmaking. He’s spent time on the wing, and at centre, and has excelled in both positions. Having made the Jets roster straight out of training camp this year, it’s time for Roslovic to step into a bigger role, and continue to grow into the power forward he’s capable of becoming.

  2015 – 17th overall – Kyle Connor – LW – United States

Another of Winnipeg’s draft picks who came up through the American college route rather than the CHL, Kyle Connor has spent time playing both centre and left wing throughout his career, and is capable of playing both at a high level. The list of his accolades prior to joining the Jets organization is long, and includes many Star of the Week nods, MVP awards, the HCA Rookie of the Month multiple times in 15-16, the USHL scoring title with 80 points in 56 games, two World Junior A gold medals, and an IIHF World U18 gold medal for the United States. Known for his explosive speed, soft hands, and patience under pressure, Connor is able to exploit any weaknesses in his opponents and create room for himself, and his teammates, to drive pucks into the net. His skills have translated magnificently into the NHL, and he’s earned himself a consistent spot in the Jets top 6, and top power play unit for his ability to retrieve pucks and drive the net. With his contract expiring soon, Jets fans are looking forward to seeing a longterm deal for KC in 2019.

  2014 – 9th overall – Nikolaj Ehlers – LW – Denmark

The 2014 draft was an exciting one, with players like Kapenen, Nylander, Draisaitl, Ekblad, Pastrnak, Reinhart, Fiala, and more all ranked extremely highly, with teams jostling for position to claim them. Though Ehlers was certainly expected to go in the first round, many seemed surprised that Winnipeg selected him as high as ninth overall. It seemed like a potentially risky choice, but the speedy Danish winger has been a refreshing and appreciated piece of the puzzle. When asked about why he picked Ehlers, Cheveldayoff said he had become more of a fan while watching him, and that “any time he got the puck, you felt like something was going to happen”. Ehlers’ ability to skate at incredible velocity, and a deadly shot, combine to make him a handful for defensemen to contain. He comes by his hockey talent and knowledge honestly, as his father Heinz Ehlers was drafted 30 years ago by the Rangers, and has spent a great deal of time coaching in international competitions after playing 16 pro seasons in Europe. Since joining the Jets in the 2015-16 season, Ehlers has played over 265 games with over 75 goals, over 100 assists, and almost 700 shots. A dynamic and exciting member of the top 6 forward group, and versatile enough to play with almost anyone, we can certainly call this draft pick a win.

  2013 – 13th overall – Josh Morrissey – D – Canada

The 2013 entry draft had a few exciting defensive prospects in Nurse, Ristolainen, Jones, and Pulock, but the Winnipeg Jets had eyes on a particular Canadian prospect by the name of Josh Morrissey. Coming into the draft after a 47 point season with the Prince Albert Raiders of the WHL, and with an impressive resume of U18 medals from international competitions, he was known in junior hockey for being a true offensive defenseman with a chippy, energetic style that plays bigger than his 6’0″ frame. In his pre-draft scouting report, International Scouting Services head scout Ross McLean said that “he is exceptional on the PP but needs to improve his five-on-five defensive ability and get stronger physically to continue to be effective at the next level” and he did just that. After being drafted, Morrissey completely reinvented his game and learned how to be a reliable defensive defenseman, eventually earning the trust of head coach Paul Maurice against the top lines on opposing teams. He has since filled out his frame with a bit more muscle, and can hold his own against larger opponents on the ice. Considered one half of Winnipeg’s top D pairing, and the undisputed strongest player in the organization for LHD, Josh Morrissey has been a dynamite addition to what used to be a pretty shaky back end.

  2012 – 9th overall – Jacob Trouba – D – United States 

The second ever first round pick of the relocated Winnipeg Jets was for American born RHD Jacob Trouba. This was a deep year for defense, with names like Rielly, Lindholm, Dumba, Pouliot, Ceci, Murray, and Reinhart all projected to be drafted early. Trouba committed to playing with the University of Michigan until 2012-13, before joining the Jets the next season on a 3 year entry level contract. He’s won gold for the United States twice at the World U18s, and was named the top defenseman on the World Junior Championships after winning a gold there as well. Since joining the NHL, Trouba has played over 350 games for the Jets, scoring almost 150 points, and logging a healthy chunk of ice time. Now part of the team’s top pairing with fellow first rounder, Josh Morrissey, Trouba is being relied on to stop the opponents’ best players, and participate in special teams. While there have certainly been some bumps and bruises in the relationship between Trouba and the team during the last few years, including a public statement about a request for trade and struggles with contract negotiations, there is no doubt that Trouba has blossomed into a solid NHL defenseman, and one the Jets hope will stick around in years to come.

  2011 – 7th overall – Mark Scheifele – C – Canada 

This brings us to the most emotionally charged of all the first rounders discussed so far, the first ever pick from the freshly reinstated Winnipeg Jets, Mark Scheifele. The first prospect to have his named called up, and handed the shiny new jersey, his selection holds a special place in the hearts of many Jets fans. At the time, Scheifele was not expected to go in the top ten. His draft ranking described him as a “safe choice”, explaining that he has size, skating, and hockey sense, but no one seemed to see anything particularly remarkable about him. When his name was called at 7th overall by the Jets, there was a flurry of confusion at this seemingly off-the-wall selection. It’s been a good few seasons now, and that “reach” of a pick has blossomed into one of the strongest two-way centres in the game, and a true franchise cornerstone. For years we watched him awkwardly fall on the ice with hilarious frequency, jokingly nicknaming him Bambi. Once he got stronger, and started finding his confidence, we joked about him being the blacksmith for hitting so much iron in the form of posts and crossbars. All those growing pains have more than paid off. Now an assistant captain and a core part of the team leadership, with almost 400 games played and over 130 goals and almost 200 assists, Bambi is a force of nature on the ice. In the 2017-18 playoffs he seemingly put the team on his back and willed them to victory multiple times, generating 20 points in 17 post-season games, and absolutely proving to any remaining naysayers that he was well worth the reach of a seventh overall pick.

Nine talented players selected in the first round, and not a single one of them considered a bust. Something to truly be thankful for as we gather around with friends and family to catch a Jets game this holiday season.

Dennis Smith Jr., the future of the Dallas Mavericks

New Post has been published on https://othersportsnews.com/dennis-smith-jr-the-future-of-the-dallas-mavericks/

Dennis Smith Jr., the future of the Dallas Mavericks

LAS VEGAS — Dennis Smith Jr. didn’t play playing cards with his teammates, set on a pair of Beats by Dre headphones or capture a nap through the to start with staff flight of his NBA career. He needed to perform, not that he had significantly alternative in the matter.

Dallas Mavericks head coach Rick Carlisle sat side by side with Smith and spent the two and a 50 percent several hours it took to fly to Las Vegas placing the No. 9 decide on in the draft via a online video tutorial. They viewed a game against the Oklahoma City Thunder final season, with Carlisle specifically emphasizing facts of the Dallas point guards’ defense against MVP Russell Westbrook.

Josh Jackson was drafted five spots forward of Dennis Smith Jr., but Smith received the greater of the matchup at summer months league. Kevin Pelton scouts their performances so considerably in Las Vegas.

Lonzo Ball’s absence opened up a window for Alex Caruso’s breakout efficiency in Las Vegas for the Lakers, which came at the expense of Sacramento’s De’Aaron Fox.

All eyes have been on Lonzo Ball and Jayson Tatum on Saturday evening, and they delivered — along with an additional pair of rookies.

They studied some of the Mavs’ offensive sets and mentioned Smith’s responsibilities, how he’d fit and scenarios he ought to anticipate to see, the rookie impressing Carlisle with his mental curiosity for the game.

“His eyes light-weight up when you flip on NBA movie,” Carlisle stated proudly a pair of times later on, refreshing off looking at Smith light-weight up the Phoenix Suns’ summer months league staff for 25 effective points in 27 minutes, driving and ending in electrifying manner for numerous buckets.

“I like your point guard,” a Western Conference coach told Carlisle as they greeted each other immediately after the game.

The Mavs, whose draft room erupted with glee when the New York Knicks selected Frank Ntilikina with the earlier decide on and remaining Smith on the board for Dallas, definitely like their point guard. So significantly so that Carlisle, without having prompting, declared on draft evening that he projected Smith as an fast starter and impact participant.

“I appreciated it,” Smith stated. “That’s just one of the wonderful minds in basketball. He is just one of the most effective coaches in the league, if not the most effective. When he stated that, it can be large praise, but that indicates I have received to arrive in and set in the perform, if he is received that significantly faith in me.”

There is a buzz all around the Mavs, who have not had a draft decide on build into a extensive-phrase starter in Dallas for far more than a 10 years, that the 19-12 months-outdated Smith may well be the franchise participant they so desperately need to have with Dirk Nowitzki (the No. 9 decide on in 1998) coming into his twentieth season and in the midst of his twilight.

“I believe that he has astounding potential that requirements to be brought along the ideal way,” Carlisle stated. “That’s on all of us. That’s on Mark [Cuban], on me, on our coaching staff members, our education staff members, our toughness and conditioning staff members. You do not just declare a man a franchise cornerstone participant. You support set him in the situation to get there. That’s heading to be our approach.”

Smith suggests he sees the glass as 50 percent total when asked about slipping to No. 9 in the draft, stressing that he is ecstatic with his scenario, landing with a franchise that attributes just one of the NBA’s premier coaches and respected, unselfish veterans to support groom him. However, he are not able to deny that he felt it was a slap in the confront to see 8 gamers picked just before him, which include 4 point guards.

“You could say that, since I believe that that I’m the most effective participant, as ought to everyone else,” Smith stated. “They do their perform, but I definitely took it as an insult.”

It is hardly ever smart to arrive to grand conclusions through the to start with week of summer months league, but Smith certainly seemed like a Rookie of the Yr prospect when top the Mavs to wins in the to start with two games, averaging 19.five points on fifty p.c shooting, 7.five rebounds and five. assists. All people in the league knew that Smith, whose vertical leap measured at 48 inches, possessed elite athleticism. He has amazed in Vegas with a uncommon blend of aggressiveness, poise and self-discipline.

“He is sturdy, plays with power, but he also plays with wonderful vision and fantastic self-discipline,” Carlisle stated. “That’s a definitely abnormal issue for a young man like that.”

The Mavs, who have had 14 gamers start at point guard in the five seasons considering the fact that Jason Kidd’s Dallas departure, determined the situation as their main need to have early in the draft preparing course of action. Carlisle, who begun studying for the draft in March with the Mavs out of playoff competition, quickly fell in enjoy with Smith’s game.

“The just one issue that I recall considering to myself ideal off the bat is, there’s no way this guy’s heading to be there at No. 9,” Carlisle stated, chuckling at the Mavs’ luck. “I believed he was a major-five talent for guaranteed.”

Some queries about Smith’s character may well have contributed to the Mavs’ fantastic fortune. North Carolina State went 15-17 in Smith’s lone season, with coach Mark Gottfried receiving fired in February, and stress was commonly apparent in Smith’s physique language. He received a bad rap for currently being a lazy, unwilling defender and there have been whispers about him currently being a bad teammate.

Smith hardly ever fell out of the major five on Dallas’ board, and the Mavs did extensive homework on his character when it appeared that he could be available when they picked. Their findings strengthened that he was a participant they needed, in accordance to Mavs proprietor Mark Cuban.

Cuban had Don Kalkstein, the Mavs’ sports psychologist, interview Smith and predicted to get a mixed evaluation afterward. Kalkstein as a substitute told Cuban that Smith was just one of the most effective interviews he had ever accomplished.

Smith hardly ever frequented Dallas just before the draft, but Carlisle, president of basketball operations Donnie Nelson and staff govt Michael Finley asked him numerous pointed queries through a thirty-moment FaceTime dialogue times just before the draft. Smith struck them as “a kid that was pretty self-confident but had an correct amount of humility,” as Carlisle set it.

“It was perception more than reality,” Cuban stated. “We talked to people all around him, talked to people he had played with, people who had labored with him. None of those people [adverse] issues came out. It was the exact reverse — wonderful teammate, rough scenario with the coach receiving [fired late in the season]. The perception was not reality. We just had to obtain out for ourselves.”

A perception of Carlisle is that the coach is specifically rough on rookies and on point guards.

“I’m the two,” Smith stated with a major smile. “It is neat, even though.”

Carlisle scoffs at his reputation relating to point guards and rookies: “I believe if you check with Yogi Ferrell, he’d say that it was a very fantastic scenario conference up with me.” Ferrell, a midseason phone-up from the D-League, was a second-staff All-Rookie assortment final season.
