okay but the sibling energy

Marc (Oldest)

-weight of the world on his shoulders, is trying to be Responsible

-mom (khonshu) makes him do all the work

-trying his best to keep everyone’s lives separate but failing because the other two won’t listen

Jake (Middle)

-everyone kind of forgets he’s there till he acts out

-“Marc is married and Steven is a vegan… I’m gonna ask Dylan out on a date to a steakhouse :D”

-chaotic energy, interrupts the other two to kill a bitch

Steven (Youngest)

-spoiled, his finding out about them being killers is completely accidental, he’s been the one living a good life set up by Marc

-Baby

-“mom said it’s MY turn with the body” “we don’t actually talk to mom” “she said it’s my turn, Marc”

Swear to god “Life Happens” has ruined me For any other Batman fanfics.... I cannot find one as good as yours. So if you have any recommendations, sending them my way is the least you could do for ruining me... 💕💕💕

LOL Oh my goddddd I don’t even know what to say to that.  Thank you.  <3 <3

Here are some WIP fics that get updated regularly that I’m absolutely obsessed with. 

The Birds Who Smile By Raberba_girl

I am, no joke, obsessed with this story.  She calls it a ‘rough draft’ and it can be inconsistent at points because of it, but those moments are very minor and over all it’s amazing.  It follows the recovery of the dark robins from Dark Knights: Metal, which I’ll admit I’ve never read, but this story is just incredible.  

Robins and Other Flightless Birds by Ionaperidot

This story is about a Bruce from a universe where he truly works alone.  But he came into contact with another Bruce and realized that he really liked kids, so he basically just kidnaps one of each of his kids from all different universes where, for whatever reason, their Bruce didn’t have them.  It’s super cute.  The only thing I wish about this story was that it was longer.  haha 

Multiversal Constant by Echoes_01

Damian and Jon get stuck in the Young Justice universe and get tangled up with the League of Assassins.  Super cute, angsty.  There’s a lot of relationship building between Young Justice Clark and Jon and Conner, and between Bruce and Dick and Damian.  Baby Damian and Cass get introduced into the Young Justice World toward the end.  

As for completed works, there are a handful I’ve read multiple times each.  

Confidence Lost by C_R_Scott

This is a White Collar x Batman crossover.  I’ll admit, I had never heard of White Collar, but this has a podfic for it, so I listened to it anyway one day at work and boy am I glad.  I’ve listened to it 4 or 5 times and read it once.  This story actually influenced Life Happens quite a bit, I think, with the character “Kate” and “Peter,” at least.   Anyway.  It’s about Tim going missing and ending up as the main character of White Collar, a dude who steals artwork and replaces them with fakes but got caught by the FBI so now he works for them.  Damian and Dick find him in NYC like 7 years after he went missing and then chaos ensues.  It’s really fascinating and has an awesome climax.  Great story.  

A Good Place by @lemonadegarden

This was one of the first fan fiction pieces I read.  It’s about Damian going back in time and meeting Bruce just before the man takes in Dick.  It’s cute and angsty.  

Yesterday’s Voices also by Lemonade_Garden

This is about Bruce losing his memory and thinking he’s five years younger, and dad to just a cute smol Jason and a Dick who hates him.  Instead, he gets back to the cave to find Damian, Cass, Steph, etc.  Since he hasn’t suffered Jason’s death yet, he’s better at showing his emotions and it freaks the younger boys out.  It’s great.  

So I’m noticing a pattern in the works I like…. They all involve time travel, universe travel, or memory loss of some sort.  

Ha.  

Anyway.  That’s totally not gonna be the plot of my next story.  Nope, not at all.

It’ll be brainwashing.

OH SPEAKING OF

 Juneberries by @mishaberrywrites

Tim is kidnapped and brainwashed, and Damian feels guilty about it and goes after him and stages a rescue attempt.  It’s angsty and heartbreaking and detailed and everything I want in a story.  

Prompt 1 ("it's mine now") for Animorphs with a Serious Injury Underreaction? Or any prompt with that really (my poor kiddos reacting to injury with "oh nooo, I liked this outfit, RIP my favorite sweater," while bystanders and/or whoever stabbed them in the first place watch in horror is my Pain Jam)

This is post series and consequently includes spoilers, and is an AU of canon, specifically that Ellimist Ex Machina AU I keep talking about writing, so if characterizations are off from the end of Book 54, that’s why.

1: “No. You buried your knife in my stomach, which means it’s mine now.”

Things Sargeant Vic Santorelli agreed to when he signed up to be part of this groundbreaking military training unity:

Learning how to turn into an animal

Things he did not agree to:

Being handed a knife by a girl younger than his sister and told to stab her in the chest

“Um,” Vic says, looking at the knife she’s handed him.  His fellow students are all too well-trained to actually blurt out what they’re thinking, but he sees them stare, flick glances at General Berenson in the corner.

(”You can just call me Jake,” their teacher said the first time they met.  “The title’s ridiculous and we all know it.“)

(”Yes, sir,” Berenson’s new students chorused obediently, and proceeded to never ever address him as Jake, because the title’s not ridiculous and they all know it.)

Berenson looks almost bored.  He certainly doesn’t seem concerned that his cousin might be getting stabbed herself with a Marine’s combat knife.  Berenson usually has about the emotive range that you’d expect from a hardened veteran–it’s hard to remember that he’s only eighteen, a full two months younger than the blonde staring Vic down–but he focuses like something predatory when he wants to, and apparently he doesn’t care to right now.

“I’d rather…not?” Vic finally says carefully.

Rachel scoffs, thrusts the hilt of the knife at him again.  She’s dressed in a leotard–a plain black one, not the official-issue morphing uniforms they were given at the start of this training.  “Don’t be a weenie.  Stab me with the knife.”
