    Summary

    In the mirror again, was her first thought, which was then violently rejected. Somewhere someone was laughing.

    You’re spiraling, Donna, she chastised herself. Quite harshly. That isn’t real and you know it. It didn’t matter that she’d barely remembered to uncover the mirrors before Cassie came to stay; unfurling the towels that had been unceremoniously draped months before and wincing away from her own reflection. That didn’t matter. It didn’t mean anything. Donna Troy had not been born on Themyscira, everyone knew that. There was no mirror. There had never been a mirror.

    (Donna, faced with the ghosts of herself.)

    Summary

    A DC universe where moms are awesome and raise their kids right. Now with more melanin and queerness. Also, Gotham's in Michigan and Metropolis is in Connecticut. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Fics are in chronological order but are all standalone.

    H I L A R I O U S!!! great, thorough reimagining of dc (batman is a large focus)!! reminder: favorite fics, with a limit, are: wayne manor (#2), third wheel (#10), making a mountain (#11), matches (#13), christmas in kansas (#20), unfamiliar faces (#27), and nominal (#44). favorite fics, without a limit, are: literally all of them.

    Summary

    In fact, Ambrosius does just fine at love languages.

    (Or: Bal and Ambrosius's first meeting through to after the wall comes down, one love language at a time.)

    ‘Try gripping it more like—here,’ Ambrosius says, and sheathes his own sword, taking a step closer.

    Bal’s about to protest that he’s fine, he doesn’t need help. But Ambrosius’s fingers hover above his on the sword’s hilt, and when he asks, ‘May I?’ suddenly the last thing Bal wants is to tell him no.

    He feels so acutely aware of the gentle fingers on his as they adjust his grip carefully on the handle. No one’s ever really been gentle or careful with him before, so he doesn’t know if it’s always like this, like there’s shimmery warmth dancing between them, little pinpoints of electricity everywhere Ambrosius’s fingertips touch his skin.

    Summary

    The girl doesn’t know pain, wasn’t made for pain.
    She was made to inflict it.
    And that, she did well.
