since you touched on this topic, i'm going to pour my favorite kind of angst on you

Dick and Jason somehow getting to know each other's memories, whether that's because they talked after a grueling night of work or by magic

my favorite part is when Jason realizes how abusive Bruce was to Dick, how lonely he felt but didn't leave because he was afraid of being truly alone, how he was abandoned every time he had no use for some mission, how he wasn't even told that Jason died, every time he was hurt, what Tarantula and Mirage did to him, I want Jason to cry, I want him to feel like throwing up, I want him to feel angry and powerlessness for not being able to protect Dick, and I want him to be hugged in the end, mutual comfort

said topic, probably Ah yes, more angst, yes. I love how your tone is like "my favorite part is-" the enthusiasm lol.

In my opinion it's more likely to be by magic, I can see Jason bringing up his theater villain monologue but not so much about Dick sharing his painful memories. After all he's the "I must be strong for the family” type of guy. And he'll lie to himself that it's all in the past, everything is better now. In my headcanon, Jason always sees Dick as a hero, an idol. Probably less after he came back, but it's still in the deepest of his heart. It'll definitely shock him knowing how everyone's favorite golden boy has suffered, since he has always been so perfect, too perfect for any of them to catch up. And his relationship with Bruce as well. Everyone in the family share the acknowledgment that Dick is Bruce's favorite, how could he not be? Yet it's a different story in Dick's memory, and he never said a word when they're joking about the favouritism.

Suddenly Jason realized that he doesn't know Dick as well as he assumed. Hell, now knowing this he starts to think that maybe he's not the most fucked up child soldier Bruce has put a crest on. At least he knows his problems, and Dick's still trying to fake it.

#no joke i had a fanfic idea involving magic exactly like this #but it never came to fruition #this is damn hard to write but i would #LOVE to read it #jaydick #fanfics

My pet theory is that Tim Drake is just a tiny bit meta.

Not “meta” as in “metahuman” (though he could also be that), but “meta” as in “genre-aware,” though not on a conscious level. Specifically, I think he’s subconsciously aware of changes to the timeline or his personal timeline and/or ever-so-slightly resistant to the effect said changes might have on him.

This isn’t a new thing either. Even before DC started resetting their universe every three years he had moments of this based on the minor alterations and adjustments they’d made since Crisis on Infinite Earths.

Like, after Zero Hour, it was decided that Batman and Robin were considered “urban legends” who actively worked to conceal knowledge of their existence outside of Gotham; yet Tim’s backstory, which hinged on seeing video footage of the two on a news broadcast, remained unchanged. And yeah, from the Doylist side that’s probably just a case of the editors not thinking their premise through quite enough, but on the Watsonian flipside you could say that he’s remembering a moment from the previous timeline, and no one else notice because he’s the only one it mattered to.

Plus, he remembered Jubilee after “Marvel vs. DC,” even though most people had those memories “fade away” – even Jubilee only remembered him because she kept a diary during the event. But Tim knew her on sight.

And let’s not forget that moment at the edge of the Lazerus pit when he raged at Dick about how they live in a world where death doesn’t really mean anything so why shouldn’t he speed up the process for his loved ones. He even pointed out that his father, as a non-hero, had zero chance of coming back.

Then of course, you have the fact that he’s the only one who realized Bruce was still alive, just from seeing a picture that lots of others saw but not one made the connection.

Not to mention his not-all-there future self from the Titans Tomorrow world, remembering the way things “should” be even as the timelines shift around him. And his time imprisoned hypertime. And now mainline Tim has a name he shouldn’t know – Connor – and leads to chase with Steph about timeline shenanigans. And who knows where that’ll lead.

(This is definitely where I’d take it though. And not just because it’d be an excuse for him to go looking for his friends from YJ. Maybe call the storyline “Fountain of Youth” to go with “The Grail.”)

To add to the evidence pile:

In Robin #101 (a crossover with Young Justice) Bedlam was forcing Impulse to mess with the timeline and change things so Young Justice was never founded. He made it so Tim was never Robin; Stephanie was the second Robin after Dick, and Tim was living a normal civilian life (normal, except, you know, occasionally rooting through Batman’s garbage). Plot happens, Tim meets Impulse, and then… he starts remembering.

“Bedlam. I know that name.” and “I can feel that I’m not just Tim Drake right now. I’m also Robin.” It shouldn’t be possible for him to remember; Bedlam had the timeline turned on its head, and none of the other members of Young Justice remember anything until Impulse starts fixing it. It’s just Tim, and he knows he should be or was Robin, even if he doesn’t know how.

Also, the math doesn’t add up. I know comic book ages are wonky and unreliable on a good day, but several sources I found said preboot Dick was 26 or 27 when Tim was 17. That’s about a ten year age difference. However, in Tim’s backstory he was 4 when he saw the Graysons fall; Dick was 9. Tim wouldn’t have even been born, or would at least be far too young to remember if they were actually nearly ten years apart. It could be an honest mistake, but I say we tally it for the “resistant to timeline changes” possible meta ability.

I wrote a fic with this being a big part of the headcanon. I just couldn’t verbalize it so well.

#love this #tim drake

I’ve been thinking about it a while and I hope someone can shed some light to this.

Where are all of the Batfamily fics from like the end of the 90′s and beginning of the 2000′s? Where did superhero fandom put their fics?

I’ve been in fandoms for a while but I’m newer to the superhero fandom (I say newer but it’s been more than 5 years lol) and what confused me the most, especially when I first got here was the lack of a list of ‘must read’ fanfics that everyone in the fandom has read or has to read.

The elder fanfic writers from days past what is the history of Batfamily fanfiction? Are there fics that the whole fandom should read? in 2000 were you all on Fanfiction.net? Were you all on Livejournal? It’s just bizarre to me that I don’t have a more solid understanding and I’ve been here so many years. Where are the fic rec lists from 20 years ago?

I kinda just want to read the best fanfiction written by fanfic writers from back when?

#batfamily #batman #dick grayson #bruce wayne #jason todd #tim drake #damian wayne #superheroes

Finally finished the outline for I Serve My Master part 3 and man did I confuse myself because I wrote it so out of order and I shouldn’t have done it that way but oh well. Now everything makes sense and actual writing can happen! Finally!

Do you have any good fic recommendations where the Batfam’s mistreatment of Dick is recognized and seriously addressed? Because I would love to read them.

I have a few. A lot of these are hurt no comfort, just as a warning.

Bruce and Abuse

deep roots (are not reached by the frost) by @fanfictiongreenirises. 5/? Incomplete. Dick gets reverted to a younger self after being kidnapped on during a case. But this is far from a routine de-aging. In which the author attempts to mend a few relationships here and there.

i’ve been looking for a night by @dustorange. 1/1 Finished. Bruce hits hard. No one’s ever said otherwise. Bruce is left reeling after Jason’s death. Dick takes the brunt of it.

almost right by unchosenone. 1/1 Finished. Bruce sucks in a breath, hand raising to fix the cowl. Dick flinches back.

Ric Grayson

Blank Slate by Stablemonkey. 2/? Incomplete. When amnesiac Dick Grayson ran away to Blüdhaven, he had hoped that his family would leave him alone and he's done a pretty good job of rejecting them, even changing his name. That is until Jason Todd shows up, the brother he hasn't met yet, who stubbornly refuses to go away. He offers Dick protection from the enemies he can't remember, nothing more, nothing less.

negative liberty by @dustorange. 6/12 Incomplete. Dick says, "I know. I know. I know what I used to say, but I'm so sick of it. I'm so sick of having to change, just so everyone else can just pretend that nothing ever happened."Dick gets his memories back. It goes about as well as you'd expect.

Hang Tough, Kid by @hood-ex. 1/1 Complete. “Pretty much everyone has. Missed the old me, I mean,” he says distantly, incapable of keeping the bitterness from bleeding into his tone. Unfortunately for him, Clark’s emotionally intelligent enough to pick up on it.

to be left unsaid by Mayarene Rose (Paradise_of_Mary_Jane). 1/1 Complete. Batman finds Dick after he regains his memories. AU where Dick regains his memories and doesn't go back to Gotham.

A lot of these have it be acknowledged...not necessarily addressed/fixed. Hope they are what you are looking for anyway. I might add some more later.

#dick grayson #fanfiction recs

Those times when you find those fics that have the smallest amount of kudos but they are the best fics

#fanfiction #personal #this is why i try not to put too much thought into how many kudos a fic has #because there are some fics out there that are so good #but aren't getting nearly as much recognition as they deserve #whether its because of the time they published or just getting buried under other fics

charlesjosephwrites

My characters forcing me to listen to how they want the story to go:

#this picture is cursed lmao #but thats me #fanfiction

I keep trying to write but I can’t seem to get into it...

There are a few fics I need to finish/start. I’m just going to rant for a second and see if it helps me. There are too many things swirling in my head I think ;^^ If anyone has any advice on writing please advise me.

I know good advice is just ‘write’ and to ‘just do it’ but the way I write stories is by planning out the whole plot and/or reason for the story and then writing it and tweaking it along the way. I really can’t get into it if I just write randomly without a purpose, whether it be to bring out an emotion or express something fun and cute I need a purpose first or else the fic will never get finished and will never reach a satisfying place.

‘Please. Your knee in my neck. I can’t breathe.’

Black man George Floyd died shortly after a Minneapolis police officer kneeled on his neck (warning: distressing)

#in case you haven't seen it yet #and the real video is much much longer #he's on his neck for a long long time #as he pleads for them not to kill him #racism #murder #police brutality

Chapter 4: END

Conner's thumb rubs over the back of Tims hand as if by muscle memory, “I’m just… worried about him.”

“He’s fine. You’ll get him back. I promise.” Tim commends.

“I kissed you.” Conner says sheepishly.

Tim quickly comments, “Yeah, but I get it! You thought I was your Tim! It was my bad!”

“Your bad?”

“I mean my fault.” Tim tells him, “Plus this is his body so maybe he won’t mind too much? Hopefully?”

“Do you mind though?” Conner asks, still looking innocently guilty, “Kissing me, I mean.”

“No!” Tim nearly shouts, “I don’t mind!”

Oh shit!

He covered his mouth with his hands, “I mean I- I… the kissing- with you- and the- it was…good?“

“Wait,” Conners eyebrows furrow at his reaction, “There’s a me in your universe, right?”

Tim shakes his head furiously, “Y-yes of course! He’s my best friend!”

“Wait. Just your best friend? You and the other Conner you aren’t-”

“Alrighty, it’s done.” Constantine stands outside of his magic circle and cracks his knuckles.

Tim thanks god for the interruption and stands immediately.

Into the Dark [Updated!]

Chapter 5:

The crowd gets rowdy again but Slade’s security is ready. When the highest bidder comes forward it’s a familiar face.

“Harvey Dent.” He states, “Good doing business with you.”

Two-Face barely acknowledges him, “This pretty boy has grown into such a fine young man now, hasn’t he?”

Dick is still blindfolded, still right on the edge of release.

“I’ll add a million if you take the headphones and blindfold off.” Harvey tells him.

Slade shakes his head, “No deal. He’s still being broken in.”

“Two million.”

“No.”

“Five million.” Harvey narrows his eyes at Slade, “If he refuses just train him more. Don’t be soft. A little punishment is always good for pets.”

Slade’s frowning but he gives, “Okay, but no amount of money will get me to let you mark him up. Understood? You damage him and it’s your head.”

Harvey just smiles and agrees. He didn’t need to mark him anyways. Dick was already marked by him.

Slade turns on Dick’s earpieces again then commands more than asks, “You’re going to be a good boy for Sir, right?”

“Yes.” Dick says immediately.

Slade takes off his earphones first and there’s a rush of noise. Echoes of voices in a large room.

He didn’t realize there were this many people. It sounds like at least a hundred. Then he hears a chuckle all too familiar before Slade takes his blindfold off and he blinks blurrily in the bright fluorescent light hanging over him. Slade puts a mask on him, similar to the one he used as Nightwing but didn’t hide his eyes, just outlined them. His eyes wandered to see that it was him.

“Two-face!” He gasps without thinking.

His legs instantly tenses to close but of course they’re being held open by the straps.

He turns to look at Slade wide eyed and panicky.

Slade gives away no expression on his face as he watches Dick expectantly.

“Look at me.” Harvey commands. And when Dick doesn’t look right away, still pleading with his eyes at Slade, Harvey grabs his jaw and turns him toward him.

Dick tried not to but he couldn’t help glaring, “Oh, he’s mad. Didn’t your Master tell you to play nice?”

He took a shuddering breath and nodded, “Yes…” he whispered.

Chapter 3:

He hears the back door open as he’s wiping the tables and naturally tenses.

He silently stalks towards the back of the shop.

“Tim?”

Oh.

“Conner!” Tim’s head pops out from behind the cabinet, “Hey. Thanks for co-”

Conner grabs him around the waist and pulls him close, “-ming?!”

A passionate kiss that has Tim tingling down to his toes. At first he’s so shocked he instinctively relaxes into the touch and the warm inviting mouth before his brain kicks in and Tim squeaks weakly before he can push himself away.

He turned around trying to compose himself, although Conner’s arms are still wrapped around his waist.

For one he totally kissed his crush. He wasn’t him but… but it was basically him!

But also for two it wasn’t him! This was a completely different Conner! It wasn’t the Conner he had a crush on no matter how similar!

Chapter 2:

“No prob?” Conner’s voice rises at the end when their lips part.

Did Tim just… kiss him?!

Those lips he was now staring at… they were just on his?!

Tim’s face went from comfortably content as he smiled at him to stoic as he jumped away from him, “You’re not Conner!”

“Tim?” He also jumps to his feet at his quick change of mood and Tim quickly scurries behind the couch his whole body is red and his heart is beating like crazy, “Don’t come near me! Pervert!”

Conner’s face twists up, “Wh-what?! Pervert?! I- YOU kissed ME!”

Timkon Week Day 6 and 7: Canon Au/Coffee shop/Bakery; Time Travel --- Tim just nods as he puts on an apron, hanging on a wall, he sees his brothers were wearing. It was a black apron, with the simple yet elegant logo “Wayne Co” in white at the chest and large seam-line pockets at the hips and front.

“No biting words today? Someone’s in a good mood.” Jason teases, “After Dick and I went through all that trouble to get you and that dough boy together you could at least throw me a bone.”

Dough boy?

Tim remembers the hickeys and can’t help but fidget embarrassed. Who was this dough boy that this Tim had been set up with?! --- Tim finds he's body swapped with a Tim Drake of another universe and tries his best to fit in.
