#reader fanart

Just to reconfirm, Reader got their hero name, Pinkie, from their hair. While building up their own persona, they had cycled a bit through different names and nothing quite felt right.

Since Reader is more acquainted early on (during the time of simply being an apprentice more than an official JD member) with Dark and under the wing of Zatanna, you certainly met Constantine who's got irritated by your ever changing names. He started referring you to Pinkie. Much to Zatanna's protests who say you should think more about it, you love it and absolutely roll with the name. Pinkie (you jokingly say Pie when people ask if there's more)

Your ultimate villain? Music Miester.

You both thrive on being wild and (since this is based off a party pony in a musical magical world) you're both pretty great singers. You're chaotic good. He's chaotic evil. Your dynamic is like that one episode of Wander Over Yonder with Doctor Screwball Jones (if you know then you know)

You take Music Mister on with ironically more seriousness and Joker wishes he had what you have with choir boy.

If this was a yandere batfam route? Then it's pretty obvious that they're gonna try to connect with you, much to your discomfort.

You're all grown up and they didn't notice. And now you have powers? Are you a meta? A magic user? It's another thing that wedges you apart.

You're too different from them. They think you're too immature and ignorant with your cupcakes and bunches of hugs and obviously you don't need much effort.

They probably keep you in the dark of their nightly fight against crime. You're silly, not dumb so you probably don't say anything. They most likely wouldn't take you seriously anyway if you insisted on joining in or helping. Your place is upstairs smiling.

You're seen as a natural built sibling who is happy and is just always here when they're home like a excitable dog. So they give you a pat on the head and move on. You don't need to be a Robin and they can work on the more troubled souls in the family, thinking you'll be okay on your own. You're low effort compared and while yes, it hurts and creates future problems for them.

They're idiots and unfortunately for them, you're a real person who can stray when you find something(or someone) that treats you like one

More clarification: your powers!!

Cartoon physics. Your magic makes it easier to bend yourself a little bit of the world around you. You have both villains and heroes questioning where you got a full size canon or that random piñata. Was it your hair? Some believe your hair is magic pocket dimensions with how big it feels sometimes and you're found holding cups with your strands with a tuba that wasn't there before.

Pinkie sense. It's probably not as strong as the original pony's but you sometimes get a premonition that something is gonna happen.

Knowing you're gonna have a good or bad day when you have a tingling feeling from your head to toes or unable to stop twitching your hair and being prepared a head of time is a blessing and a curse. Sometimes you don't get a feeling at all unless it's unsettlingly wrong. You tend to listen close to the signs after living in a house full of night crawling, paranoid detectives.

Your wand is sometimes for decoration but you'd argue it's for important for the vibe and...

...the few spells you can do. Nothing too big by yourself yet and without the right book but some minor things. Perhaps a minor illusion or a light spell, a quick small fire bolt, the ability to mold earth or water (I'm thinking along the lines of DND cantrip spells).

They don't seem like much at first glance but you're learning and might even have more under your sleeves and have your wits with you. You use your magic in creative ways that have people scratching their heads but you get the job done.

N/A: if you made it this far, thanks for reading!! I've been having fun writing and drawing these kinds of things and honestly it's understandable how easily you get hooked on neglected reader stories. I know I'm a sucker for them and I hope this makes sense and it's been enjoyable so far like it has been for me.
