    AITA for being "obsessed" with my childhood nemesis? by for beta_vulgaris

    Summary

    Alrakis • I [24M] attended a small boarding school in the UK. There was a boy in my year, a couple of months younger than me, and he became my nemesis after we developed an intense rivalry. My friend [25F] told me recently that our dynamic was "weird back then" and that "it’s even weirder" that I still think about him today. She argued that I talk about him all the time, but I believe the amount I talk about him is reasonable. AITA?

    prongymcprongface • i completely get what you mean. i had a nemesis (like a school one, separate to my other nemesis) and we had a dynamic super similar to what you are describing. having a nemesis is a very cool and normal thing dw about it. NTA

    In which Draco asks the internet if he's being reasonable. Only one commenter is sympathetic. They start talking.

    Summary

    "Are you going for the course?" Lovegood asked. "You have the NEWTs.”

    “What course?” Draco said, then, “No, don’t be ridiculous,” when he realized she meant the notice pinned up on the board he’d been staring at: Applicants To The Introductory Mediwizard Course For The Coming Term Shall Present Themselves In The Chief Mediwizard’s Office By August 24th.

    “Oh, I thought you might,” she said. “Well, goodbye.” And off she wandered again in her addled way.

    They’d been nothing more than children, playing at grown-up games. Never stopping to consider that the stakes could be higher, too. Or, the one in which Dick and Roy marry… in secret. / Pre-Flashpoint continuity, canon universe with slight plot divergence.

    Summary

    She thinks she sees him by the sound of his laughter.

    There are too many white smiles and dark heads in the dim room to distinguish one wealthy man from another, but among the tapered suits and glinting watches, she hears deep bells in a voice. For a moment, it’s as if the tent surrounds her, all of its hazy chaos and buzz, chalk fogging up the yellow lights, its smell itchy and new. John Grayson was the same height as her when she met him.

    Across the room, she is delighted to see his son has grown taller than the both of them.

    or

    Dick Grayson is approached by someone from his past. He never forgets a face that knew his parents, though.

    Summary

    There was a new vigilante in his city: a man who smiled too much and talked too loud and knew his way around a fight a little too well. Bruce wasn't bothered by his antics. Except the man also seemed to know a little too much about him.

    Who was this Nightwing, anyway?

    ------
    OR: Dick Grayson (DCU) accidentally lands himself in Battinson’s Gotham.
