Dp x Dc AU: Bruce has a 'if you can't beat them, join them' mentality about the tabloids claiming he adopts too many kids- Developing foster homes that are paid for through the Wayne inheritance, personally vetted by the Bats, they're the leaders in the space for child health outcomes and family placement. Insert Danny.
---
Bruce has too much wealth, too many rumors and not enough reach into the abhorrent foster homes around Gotham to improve them. Tim ends up being the one to suggest it- He's the one who buys up their real estate for their safe houses after all- and Bruce is more than ready to pull the metaphorical trigger to get new clean welcoming spaces, Bat-background checked fosters and a new era of adoption in Gotham underway.
He's lobbied the state and the federal government for reforms of course, but this is a project he can micromanage. He spends time with every kid that comes through, talks with all the families that want to adopt and makes sure that these miniature homes are provided only the very best. Alfred personally hires all the staff, and with Barbara more than happy to help relocate the unhoused children she spots while they patrol, the project is a glowing success.
Occasionally, spots in their houses fill up, and those are the weeks were Cass takes on the Cowl of Batman- Bruce Wayne will personally invite a child in need to his home. He always has one of his kids present (they rotate on a pre-determined schedule) and he does his best to try and get them to understand that they deserve the world, have all the potential that anyone else has and can achieve a bright future. That he will personally aid them in their ambitions.
PR goes crazy for it of course, but Bruce and all of his children know its genuine. Almost too genuine, because a betting pool 'WILL THEY BE ADOPTED' regularly circulates between the siblings and the entire JL when someone spends time at the manor. And not just the black-haired, Blue-eyed kids get picked as favored outcomes- but obviously the running joke gets passed around.
It's a Thursday night when Bruce gets the call that the houses have once again filled up, and that there is a child in need of a home. The social worker (he knows her as Marsha and he has flowers planned to be sent on her birthday next week, like he does for all of his employees) (Say micromanaged one more time) explains that the kid is a bit cagey but has opened up with some humor. She explains that he has a few strange... mannerisms. She's not sure what to make of him, a non-gothamite for sure but something is, well, distinctly 'not from around here' about his energy.
Danny arrives at the house, meets Duke and Alfred, and by the time Bruce meets him at the dinner table it seems as though Marsha had it all wrong. This kid was laughing, he was teasing, he was totally playing along like he'd gone through nothing. Bruce is glad he's in high spirits but its just so... so different from all the other children he's taken in.
Bruce re-focuses on the conversation when Duke mentions something flashing, and its the first time that Danny goes quiet. Entirely still.
"...you noticed that?" Danny quietly asks, a bit of disbelief in his tone.
"You don't have a flashlight on or something do you? It was super bright whatever it is that you had in your hand a second ago?" Duke tries to sound chill but he's looking very much not chill. Bruce saw nothing, and that puts him further on edge.
"Look... I uh, I've been though... I've been through a lot lately. And the last lab I was in kind of, messed with me. I'm normally much better at dealing with it all, I promise." Danny sounds nervous, and the room seems to chill.
"Ah shoot, sorry." Danny notices something and frantically apologizes.
"Sorry for what Danny? You've done nothing wrong but I am worried about you- You said you were in a lab?" Bruce is desperately trying to calm him down while not slipping into Batman interrogation mode.
"Uh, yeah, like a lot of labs. It should get warmer in a second, its just cause I startled, I promise."
"You're a meta." Duke speaks softly and with hope in his voice- Danny is looking between them with wide eyes filled with fear.
"I mean I don't technically have the gene-"
"Danny, have you told any of your case workers where you were? Do any authorities know what you've been through?" Bruce needs to know, desperately, that who ever gave this young boy super powers is brought to justice. Danny goes quiet.
"I'm really sorry." He says softly, but he doesn't leave them.
Duke and Bruce try to ask a few more questions but the silence that meets them declares the conversation over, even with Duke admitting he himself is a meta. Danny didn't even look up from his plate. They watch a movie after dinner, and Danny seems to get back to the smile-y happy guy he had been before dinner.
Each of the bat-fam have their own interactions with Danny- And even if they're getting along amazingly, Danny won't open up. He doesn't open up to his provided therapist. Doesn't talk to Alfred. No one knows what's up.
So when Marsha calls Bruce back explaining they now have a spot for Danny and he can move out of the Manor... Bruce replies that he'd like to get started on Adoption paperwork, so long as Danny is fine with it.
---
Turns out, Danny is fine with it. he's both the newest Wayne and their newest case. (And godamnit, his new family is going to avenge him. If only he'd let them try.)
Danny figures out that Duke= Signal early on because of that dinner, and if he's going to keep his parents out of jail, he needs to be as close to the investigation as possible. He knows that he shouldn't protect the Fentons, but he feels the upset in his core at the thought of letting them befall any harm. He has to protect them. Has to protect Jazz and her hiding spot as a mole within their lab. Has to.
Even if it meant lying to his new family who loves him, and who he loves in equal return. Even if it means lying to The Bats.
---
Tabloids go crazy about the black-haired blue-eyed thing of course, but no poll was ever taken by the batfam or the JL who know the whole story.

pent up kylar is a menace - maybe you get kidnapped and taken to the farm, or maybe you just straight up ignore him - either way, kylar does not take it lightly.
you've been gone for weeks. how do you expect him to cope with that?? he can barely survive without you!
when you finally see one another again; kylar is quite literally all over you. depending on your reaction, either overwhelming disgust or elation, selects whether you get a cute, clingy kylar who insists you sleep in his room tonight or an obsessive, hysterical kylar who holds a knife to your throat, demanding to know where you've been - How could you just leave him like this?
more below the cut!! (nsfw)(gen! reader, m! kylar)
If you're just as excited to see him...
"(N-Name)!" Kylar sobs, clutching at your torn school shirt like a lifeline. "I-I thought s-something horrible happened to you!" You feel tears soaking into fabric, heavy, shaky-breathed sobs racking Kylar's shoulders as he cries. He looks like a wreck. Heavy, dark purpled stains lay dormant under his eyes. His eyes themselves are wide, tinged pinky-red from sleep deprivation. You swallow.
"Kylar,"
You breath out his name, it is your lifeline. The one person you can come back to despite being held against your will by a crazed psychopath in the forest for weeks. Your hands, shaking just as much as his shoulders, reach around to return his heady embrace. "I-I couldn't... I would've..." Your words trail off, lost to the silent bustle of the alleyways in Danube Street. Kylar sobs loud.
"I-I was so worried a-and- I'm sorry I couldn't protect you-"
His eyes trail over the bruises spanning across your body. Painted by Eden, your body aches, throbs at each little movement from rough treatment. Kylar's eyes dull as he notices it all. All of the newly formed scars, bruises the same colour as his eyebags, the limp when you walk... It makes him ill.
The tears on his face, now dried to a crust, leave a lingering, salty smell in the air. A small, noticibly much frailer hand reaches up to cup your cheek.
"I won't let that happen to you again..."
He promises it to you, thumb gently rubbing at your cheek. "I'll... I'll kill anyone who touches you! J-Just, I..." He looks at his shoes, hand still on your face. "...Can you... s-stay in my room tonight?"
You can't refuse him, not when he looks up at you, red tearfilled puppy-dog eyes glittering at you. You weakly nod, leaning forward to put your upper body onto Kylar's. He smiles, rubbing your back in a repetitive, soothing motion. He whispers, just loud enough for you and the critters in the alleyway to hear.
"I don't t-think I can sleep without you..."
-
If you aren't happy to see Kylar...
You've been ignoring Kylar for three weeks now. Brushing off his pleading looks from across the cafeteria, ignoring him when he asks to walk home together - forgoing communication with the little creep entirely. You had sex once! One time, and now Kylar thinks you two are soulmates, destined to be together just because his stupidly large cock could fit inside you.
But you've moved onto better things. Better boys that don't obsessively stalk you, boys that don't get jealous if you glance at another living being... It wasn't difficult for you to move on. Clearly, it's different for Kylar.
You're on your way home, happily walking by yourself, kicking at lone petals on the footpath. You think you hear your footsteps doubling - like there's someone behind you, syncing theirs with your own - you ignore it. You're tired after studying. Probably just that.
You shriek, loud and obnoxious as you're tugged into an alley. A small, scarred hand clamps over your mouth that partly muffles your noise. You struggle - you scratch, flail and kick at your perpetrator - until you feel the cold steel of a knife press against the soft, peachy skin of your throat.
"Y-You've been i-ignoring me..."
He spits the word like sin, his spare hand snatching your hair and tugging backward until you meet his gaze. Kylar's eyes are wide, crazed and desperate. "Did I do s-something wrong-" Kylar wheezes, cackling to himself, pressing the sharpened edge of his knife just a little bit deeper, just enough to nip you. "-Is there a-another guy?" He scowls, pulling your head further back so it rests against his shoulder blade. "Y-You don't need anyone e-else - You know that! - So why are you acting like a slut!"
Kylar cries out, he's hysterical and you can't do anything to calm him down. You whimper louder, praying to any and every god to save you from this horrible situation.
Kylar giggles.
"...Oh? L-Look at you... making s-such cute sounds-"
He breathes in your scent shakily, savouring it. He missed you so much--
"D-Did you miss me as much as I missed you?"
He purrs, still holding the knife to your throat even as he talks so sweetly.
"I know you d-did. You j-just like it when I'm rough, don't you?"
He grinds his cock against your ass, groaning and panting against your earlobe. His tongue slides out to lick a stripe along the sensitive flesh, Kylar's cock throbbing against you as he does so.
"That's okay, I can give it to you rough... I know you love it when I stretch you out..."
The hand that once held your hair in an iron grip releases you, opting to grope at your chest and tweak your sensitive nipples through your school shirt. Kylar outright moans as your nipples harden under his fingers. He smiles against your neck. You feel it. You don't dare to meet his eyes.
"I knew you missed me! T-That's okay, my little tease!'
You moan as his fingers pinch and prod your sensitive flesh, hissing in pain as his motions turn rough and frantic.
"D-Don't worry," He croons the words, taking his attention away from your pointed, reddened buds.
"I'll take care of you just like a good husband should."

What do you consider the most important aspect when determining whether something is fanfiction, or just another type of media that was inspired by something else?
For a more detailed explanation of the points with examples (especially relating to comics) there's one here: x.

It's so weird to think that UT/DR used to be the fandom where Fontcest and Frans were once really common and now the fandom is full of antis, often really aggressive antis at that.
anyway Krisriel is great and if i must be the only one actively making content for this ship i accept that role

Hmm I apologize again for the rant !
It is not the first time I am doing it. I might forgot to put "please don't tag it as ship" under my drawing of tighnari cyno. Please, do not !
I love them as best friend, I love them as brother/found family, I don't mind the queerplatonic relationship at all
But their romantic side make me pretty uncomfortable. No hate ! It is my own taste.
Shippers are always welcomed and I am so glad you like my content 💕 but all my art concerning them (unless I tag the ship) are purely platonic. I just ask for some respect of my taste and not reblog my art with the ship tag.
I don't want to block, because I am genuinely glad you enjoy my work and as a young artist, it means a lot for me. Thank you so much 🙇 !! But as a human, I can't deny how uneasy it makes me feel.
Thank you for understanding !
#rant#I blame nobody#i am clearly not used to block ): I should tho but I know those who tag ship are not mean at all </3#it is fine if you don't know.#but i saw people reblogging my art with shiptag even if i said “do not”#my art is like my only safe place please respect it#this ship is so popular and I clearly stop to interact with the fandom because of that#i clearly ignore when I saw one in my timeline /dashboard becausz I can't do nothinf against it except masking the account#but I beg you. not. under. my. post.#not in my DM#why i feel obligated to justify myself 😭#but yeah !!! the ship is valid and full of greenflag !! wholesome !!#but I only enjoy them platonically !!! please respect 😭😭😭 I SWEAR I AM DESESPERATE WHY IT IS SO HARD FOR SOME TO RESPECT THAT OMG#gosh on twitter someone said me “ignore ??? what did you expect ??? it is the most popular ship”#I AM TRYING I AM LITERALLY NOT SEARCHING FOR FANART 😀#feeding myself with my own food#that's why I am so grateful for people who support me. thank you. 😭#and how could I ignore a comment under my post ??? interaction are so important for me I read everything#ANYWAY SORRY FOR RANTING !!! IT IS CLEARLY A /NOTMEAN POST !!!#next time I won't forgrt “do not tag it as ship”#but urgh if I do this I have to do in every post ???? 🤨#and what if I draw tighnari cyno kaveh but I don't mind ship with kaveh ??? 🤨🤨🤨 (plz still don't)#tHERE IS PLENTY OF CYN0N4RI ACCOUNT IF YOU WISH TO SEE MORE CONTENT OF THEM !! Please support them <<3 mine are platonic !#but clearly. imagine you are obsessive about two characters <<3#but their popular ship is the one who make you the most uncomfy 😀#so you decided to just stop looking at fanart and not bothering anyone 👍👍#but it came under your post and your DM 😟#AAA SORRY I AM SALTY I SWEAR I AM NOT USED TO FEEL LIKE THIS ):<#anyway plz take care ilove you mwah 🥺🥺🥺🥺💕💕

last post complaining about genshin's writing for the month Anyway i think blorbofication happening in canon is the best way i could describe a lot of the problems i have with it ex. kaeya's relationship with diluc (or klee) is almost the only focus we get on him now, other than his brief appearance in the sumeru archon quest which was just saying his backstory basically with very little actual reaction or characterization on his part OR dainsleif's (also a problem i have in the albedo homunculus reveal in shadows amidst snowstorms). i haven't done his hangout because i. don't care enough to sit through an hour for each route with the quality of content hoyoverse puts out but looking at the ending options i feel like. they missed the opportunity to expand on things we already had for kaeya in favor of Oh he babysits klee! Oh albedo is here! Spend money to pull albedo!Venti cameo! What do you mean him and amber have a complicated dynamic. What do you mean he's apparently beloved by the elderly of mondstadt and the one who wraps up all the incidents there. What do you mean bennett trusts him as an omniscient big brother according to his official cn character profile. We made him talk to diluc again isn't that enough kaeya for you? and it sucks because kaeya feels like a rubik's cube with an onion's layers and like one of their best character personalities in content where he's actually kaeya and not just diluc's brother who is sad and also pretty! we never see anything about his relationship with jean, who he is the Most Trusted Aide of, or mondstadt at large! because every day we get closer to fanon kaeya being canon kaeya and it's just. You can have canon kaeya and fanon kaeya will follow but if fanon kaeya is at the forefront you're just immediately losing all that depth and it's going nowhere

[[Hey, is there a way to not see someone's posts? Like, beyond just blocking. If I follow someone, and that person reblogs from someone I have blocked, it seems like I still see the post despite the block, because the follow+reblog overrides that? Or am I doing something wrong? Or, knowing this dumpsterfire of a site, is it possibly a bug?
I refuse to name names and start drama, so please don't ask who I'm talking about, but it's really fucking annoying to see the art of someone who su*cide-baited one friend AND the memes of someone who tried to rally a hate mob against my other friend/said they deserve to be shot - both cases being because of ships - multiple times a day. ]]
EDIT: I, a known fool, forgot blacklisting exists. Thank you all <3

i was thinking about girl!vale (as i often do) and i thought. would she keep the same nicknames or would she use different ones? Rossifumi stays, 100%. i suppose i am allowing valentinik to stay even if it's terrible. but then, the doctor? the problem here is that, taking the meaning vale used it for (somebody knowledgeable), is in 99% of the cases used to talk about a man. It also would become "la dottoressa" instead of "il dottore" which 1. sounds weird and 2. doesn't really convey the same meaning because that's not usually how it's used.
but the other day I read a short story by an italian author at school, "la lupa" (the she-wolf) (go read it here, it's really short) which is also one of my favourite stories by him and i thought. wait. this could be vale. maybe the italian press starts calling her this while she fights with biaggi, in a dregogatory, mean way. she's a man-eater, she doesn't care about anything but what she wants, not about the rules or the sanctity of the sport. she's the daughter of the devil. and maybe vale looks at those articles, and thinks. yes. I will take this as a compliment. i am taking what i want when i want and i am not leaving anything for somebody else. i am eating my rivals alive on track and licking my fingers after. i don't care about what's right and what's wrong i just care about winning and i just care about me. so she takes the name, and instead of "il dottore" she becomes "la lupa".
