    My Weary Widow (Marches on and on) by

    Fandoms: Red Hood and the Outlaws (Comics)  

    28 Jul 2025

    Summary

    Death is a fickle thing, hypocritical and capricious. It took Jason when he wanted to live and refused his ticket when he was ready to go.

    Living the years he never got to know was more terrifying than missing them. With a borrowed body, a fractured soul and raging hormones, one thing becomes clear: Jason would rather be dead.

    Or

    Summary

    Time-Travel. Not really a fix-it but some things are better.

    Jason Todd wakes up in the past and decides to leave.

    This isn't a songfic.

    But, somehow, after I wrote the skeleton for this series, my playlist hit me with the perfect songs for each part consecutively. I just loved how the songs fit perfectly with the theme of each story and how they all share the Carry On motif. It was fate!

    Part One - Carry on Wayward Son by Kansas
    Part Two - Welcome to the Black Parade by My Chemical Romance
    Part Three - Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen.

    (Might write parts four and five as side-stories if I find the right songs)

    lies of omission by

    Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, DCU (Comics)  

    13 Oct 2025

    Tags
    Summary

    Red Hood kept his distance from the Bats. They had something akin to a truce, but they always maintained a healthy level of mutual wariness and animosity. None of them knew him, not in any way that mattered, and he was content keeping things that way.

    Unfortunately, secrets had a way of coming to light.

    Beyond the Grave by

    21 Jul 2025

    Summary

    Bruce stood at the edge of the gravestone, a beautiful angel marker that was still as pristine as the day the boy was buried under it. Dying flowers from past visits still held some of their fading color as he carefully picked them up and laid down the fresh ones.

    HERE LIES
    JASON TODD

    The grave read simply, as the real memorial wasn’t really this. Still, it didn’t stop Bruce from murmuring: “I miss you, son.”

    …Or…

    What if Jason didn’t come back six months later?

    Summary

    Standing behind the monster, as this one laughed maniacally and planned the bombing of Gotham’s Children Hospital, the shadow swung his sword. It was a small cut, one that left no DNA or proof that could be linked back to the shadow. No one would ever know the shadow had been involved, or that the Joker had died of anything but natural causes. But death was brought upon the Joker that night, even with a small cut. Because a cut from the All-Sword was all it was needed. No one could come back from it.

    The Joker was dead.

    Finally.

    In one clean cut the shadow ended the nightmare that had plagued Lady Gotham for over a decade.

    The shadow let out a shaky sigh as he felt it. How the chains weighing him down broke. The last of the green mist leaving his mind. The shadow smiled as he felt Lady Gotham thanking him. But there was no need for any thanks. Tonight, the shadow had freed Gotham. Tonight, the shadow had freed himself.

    When the shadow opened his eyes, they were back to the beautiful blue they had been before his death. The shadow welcomed the world once more as who he had been.

    After all, Jason was finally free.

    PLEASE let this be a normal field trip (group chat) by

    Fandoms: Batman - All Media Types, DCU  

    06 Oct 2025

    Tags
    Summary

    Jason thinks maybe he’s seen all group chats have to offer. Maybe he knows what they are.

    But ohhhh boy was he wrong.

    There are like, twenty-odd numbers here. Jason knows none of them. What the fuck. Texts flood his phone —his personal phone. How the fuck did that happen and who the fuck did it.

    Someone names the chat ‘magic users (vigilantes)’

    Someone texts “I’m not a vigilante.”

    Someone renames the chat to just a period under the logic, “Too conspicuous and also not entirely accurate.”

    Jason wonders if the previous chat name implies that there’s a chat for villains as well.

    OR

    what if all the silly little magic DC skrunkles had a group chat and jason ended up getting involved lmao
    mayyybeee just an excuse for me to expand on all-caste shit
