    Summary

    With teams run by a small handful of big names, recruitment based almost entirely on who you know, and unchecked interteam dating, the superhero community is practically designed to encourage interpersonal abuse. When a former sidekick comes forward to say that she was abused by her mentor, the entire community has to reckon with the part they may have played—and with the abuses that may still be going unnoticed.

    (A story of systems, told through chats, texts, and transcripts.)

    Summary

    "We're separated," the woman said from the foot of the stairs. "So you're not a home wrecker, if that's what you're worried about."

    Trinity looked back at the photo of two laughing kids on a lush lawn treating an equally laughing man like their jungle gym. A man who was unmistakably Dr Frank Langdon.

    "That's, uh. Not what I was worried about," Trinity said.

    It's the fifth anniversary of Jason Todd's death

    Today is the fifth anniversary of the day that Jason Todd and Sheila Haywood were murdered, so I thought I would post a write-up unifying all of the information that we have on the case. There have been a lot of posts about Jason over the years, but this case is so weird and has so many branches to it, I don’t think that anyone’s ever compiled all of them in one place.

    Summary

    Everyone knows that the voices of the underground radio broadcast le sous-sol helped coordinate—and by most accounts, were the people behind—the overthrow of France’s former fascist regime. What we didn’t know (until now) was the truth about who those voices were, where they came from, and how they came to lead—and give their lives for—a revolution. Fortunately, new information has led researchers to one of the Friends of the ABC’s earliest hideouts, where they have found a variety of recordings and other paraphernalia that document the earliest days of that long, grueling fight for freedom.

    So, for all you history buffs out there: these are those documents, scanned and transcribed with as much accuracy and fidelity as we could manage. This is the (surprisingly human) story of how le sous-sol began, and how it became the force that united a people in the name of freedom.

    Summary

    Obviously, truth is stranger than fiction, and there’s always going to be edge cases in the real world, but for our purposes: just how realistic is Armand’s tragic backstory?

    Judging by the number of retweets/reblogs on this post and others like it, fannish opinion seems to be “not very”. But honestly? It’s not that far-fetched.

    Or: a fannish academic does a deep dive into the most controversial character in Daniel Molloy’s new novel.

    Summary

    Ever since their fateful crash in 1996, the Yellowjackets tragedy has captured public fascination like nothing else before or since. As their disappearance and eventual recovery coincided with the growth of the modern internet, an online fandom has always existed, whether in the form of newsgroups, blogs, forums, subreddits, or hashtags. Compiling it all would be impossible, and much of it has been lost to time (particularly since the death of Geocities), but several cataloguing attempts have been made. This is one of them.

    (Or: a look at the in-universe fandom surrounding the crash, its victims, and its survivors. Forum fic, Reddit fic, Discord fic, Tumblr fic, etc.)

    Summary

    Gilderoy Lockhart was a public figure—until he, under rather mysterious circumstances, lost his memories and was permanently locked up in St. Mungo’s Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries. No further mention is made of him, and he fades into obscurity, and such is the fickle nature of fame.

    But does that make sense? Let’s say, instead, that he doesn’t. Let’s say that his tragedy draws attention—and let’s say the public furor gets him the public enquiry that he deserves.

    “Oh my God,” the girl says.

    It’s not the oddest exclamation Eddie’s heard from a person who’s just crashed their car into a telephone pole, but more the way it’s said: something dizzied and a little resigned, as though she is both concussed and mostly just inconvenienced by it. It’s enough for Eddie to peer into the window as Buck heaves at the car door with the jaws of life, armed with a penlight. “Ma’am, can you tell me your name?”

    “You’ve got to be kidding me,” the girl says, which doesn’t quite sound like a name to Eddie. He’s just about to tell her as much until she goes, “You’re LAFD Updates man.”

     

    or, five times someone recognises Eddie as the LAFD Updates man.

    Imogen was embarrassed to admit it, but it all started with the moodboards.

    Or, Imogen's split-second decision to send an anonymous ask somehow snowballs into acquiring her first-ever real friend. So what if it's an author of a weird Tumblr blog, and she has no idea what Laudna sounds or looks like in real life? Laudna doesn't even know Imogen's name yet, and that hasn't stopped the two of them from finding unconditional support neither had ever experienced before.

    And it's just... nice.

    Imogen doesn't really have much experience with nice, but she supposes it's never too late to start.
