#the twins Did Not

[skumhuu]

Looking at Megalodontale and liking what I see. How did the shiver first encounter Dream and Nightmare?

Thank you!! :D <3

Context for any who don’t know: megalodontale is swap!leviathantale where the shiver are huge ancient megalodons, and the twins are smol mers with special magic that allows them to take on bigger forms for short periods of time.

The twins first meeting with the shiver was terrifying to say the least. They’ve already been struggling to survive, and danger lurks around every corner. They never met anything that could rival their big forms, so it’s easy to scare predators off with them. However, lack of food, ability to survive, and their big forms taking a lot of energy to maintain leads to the twins not doing so great on their own :( Human poaching eventually forces them to go deeper and deeper to try and find food and safety.

Insert the shiver. They only catch a few glimpses of strangely large lights at first, and these images tend to vanish whenever they get close enough to investigate (Cue the twins sweating inside whatever crevice they’ve managed to squeeze themselves into) Dream and Nightmare spot the shiver first and needless to say they’re scared of them ;;

Eventually one of them, maybe Killer or Horror, manages to catch the twins in their small forms and they’re forced to use their levia forms to get away. And now the shiver is REALLY curious as to who and what these twins are 👀 it’s only been them around for many, many millennia, and to find two others their size is amazing!!

Dream and Nightmare aren’t so enthused.

Months drag on, the shiver slowly warming up to the twins and wanting to help them, while they keep fleeing, scared witless. Dream and Nightmare’s health keeps declining. The shiver hunts them down even harder to try and help them, until one day the twins wander into a naval mine field, and Nightmare is seriously wounded.

No more running, no more games, they get forcibly adopted into the shiver and nursed back to health whether they like it or not. And in order to heal Nightmare, Horror, Killer, and Dust accidentally bind themselves to him as his anchors. Dream is endlessly bitter about this whole thing and just wants to take his brother and be left alone but they CANT anymore. It’s okay though, Cross (and the shiver) will help him heal through his own trauma :’)

Their first official meeting was rough all the way through, full of being hunted down, chasing, and forcing the twins to accept help because they really did need it

Guess who is back in their gravity falls phase! (After it being dormant for almost a decade!)

It wasn’t supposed to be a secret.

If you died while with the league, you will no longer be acknowledged to have existed, especially if you died during a mission. A disappointment will not be remembered.

The bats and birds don’t like speaking about the people they have lost, so they don’t. If someone ask about the dead, they will tell the person they don’t talk about that.

So how was Damian supposed to know that he should have told his father about his dead brother?

[akanemnon]

Wow, not even 5 seconds in and they're already starting a fight.

Dc x Dp Prompt #6

“I’m a twin”, Damian said one night. He could feel the narrowed eyes of his family drilling holes on his back in disbelief. Not that he could blame them. Damian had never so much as implied being raised with a companion, much less a sibling.

“I had a brother”. Damian paused to recollect himself. He had not said his brother’s name out loud in over 8 years.

“His name was… Danyal”. Damian hated the way his voice wavered, but he could not help it. Danyal was everything to him, his other half. Their heart beat as one and when one heart stopped beating, the other one died with it. At least until his family put his heart on metaphorical life support without ever realizing.

“Where is he now?” His father asked, voice filled with knowing grief and a hint of betrayal. It had in fact been 6 years since Damian first showed up on his doorstep.

“Up there”. All eyes shifted towards the specific star he was pointing to. “Right before he died, he promised me he’d guide me from the stars. Unfortunately, the stars are not visible in Gotham, so my brother is unable to be of much help unless I leave the city.”

“Your brother is Polaris, the North Star?” Tim questioned warily, most likely in attempts to not offend him. Damian was aware of how stupid it sounded, but Danyal had promised, and his brother never broke his promises.

“Yes. Danyal is with the stars now, just as he always wanted”

Uncle Damian Mode ACTIVATE

Twins Danny and Damian but! They both know where the other is (Damian going to Bruce and Danny being sent to the Fentons on a mission at a young age), has kept in touch and all that.

They just...never got around to telling anyone about the other.

That is until Danny comes interrupting Damian on patrol one night in a panic, pushes a bundle into his arms and hurriedly says "Read our texts! It'll explain! I gotta go, got a fruitloop on my tail! Be back when I can!"

And rushes off. When Damian looks down at the bundle in his arm, ignoring the yelling on comms and Nightwing rushing over, he is stunned to see a almost identical face to that of his brother staring back at him, only he can tell its female from the more delicate features.

When he later reads the texts his brother sent during his patrol... well he's tempted to go fruitloop hunting but he has a niece to take of... and inform his father of his granddaughter he's currently holding.

DPxDC Changeling AU pt.2

This idea got me in a chokehold, so I'm here to add more.

I'm sticking with the 'Talia outplayed the fae in order to acquire 2for1 deal of babies' for this one and probably for any later continuations.

Damian knows his brother is not human. He knew it from the very beginning since no one bothered to hide the fact. Yet Danyal grows up just like any other human baby, acting like a child he is supposed to be. He trains by Damian's side, he eats just like everyone else, he likes the stories and lessons their Mother teaches them both.

But Damian knows. His brother is no human. He sees it in the way Danyal tilts his head like a curious bird, in his swift, flowing movements that remind him of snakes, in his eyes that reflect the moonlight in a way cat's eyes do. He knows it by how some of the assassins lose their names to his brother and how Danyal never lies but also never tells the truth.

More than that, he sees it in the way Danyal smiles. Others would call that smile a mischievous one, but Damian sees no mischief in there.

He sees amusement.

And it drives him up the wall.

So he trains. He works harder than ever to prove himself better. He is worth not just simple amusement, he is the Heir, the Son of the Bat, he demands respect, even from his brother. Danyal will never take his place - not that he even could, Grandfather would never allow an unpredictable being to become the next Demon Head.

And he learns, from his Mother and from the old books, and sometimes from Danyal himself. He learns of customs and rules, of names and wordings, of odds and debts, and of tricks and riddles.

Damian has his own pride, and he wants to show it to his brother. To see the amused smile fade from his face, to make Danyal understand he is not just a weak mortal who's been simply allowed to exist beside his brother.

He wants to defeat Danyal.

And one day, he does.

Danyal is on the floor, and there's no smile on his face. Instead, in his eyes he sees the calm tranquility of a lake, frozen to the bottom, as he looks at Damian. And Damian? Damian grins, victorious at last.

Yet it is only after Danyal stands up and leaves a soft, cold and barely noticeable kiss to his forehead before disappearing in the shadows, that Damian realises:

His brother never asked to have his name.

Do you ever read a really questionable fanfiction or a spicy love story and think "what the fuck did I just read"
