Just imagining Frank tryna study a butterfly and in the corner of his eye he just sees Wally under a tree staring at him with a laser focus. Wally's eyes are no longer half-lidded, they r blown full open and Frank can't help but feel a bit confused, dread creeping up his spine. Without breaking eye contact, Wally scribbles something on paper before standing up and walking over to Frank. Frank breaks into a cold sweat--his breathing going faster and his body going full fight or flight mode--before Wally rips out a page and hands it to Frank, asking him if he likes it. Wally's eyes droop once more, and Frank could feel himself breathe again. He looks down to see an impressive portrait of him, and he gives Wally an uneasy smile, saying it was wonderful. Wally smiles back.

AJDIDLHDSJ 
AND DID A DIP!!!!
That’s my woman you’re messing with
No Duke
I will not count to ten...
1...2...5...
He pulled her to HIS chest! 
AND HE’S LEANING IN????????????
There is no reason to continue counting to 10 when I’m already to 200.
“Excuse me. MAY I CUT IN.”
No? 
nO?
NO
Is this peasant here questioning me???
Thank you Y/n! I would love to be your new dance partner
*cue batglare towards the bastard when Y/n isn’t looking*

Fucks not Found
Florence
Ch1 Ghosts | Ch2 Florence | Ch3 A Matter of Seconds | Ch4 I need a Backdoor | Ch5 Die Hard | Ch6 White Flag | Ch7 Haunt the Living | Ch8 One, but not done [end]
Tumblr media
Who had this fucking idea?
One had refused that you got out the truck since Italy was were you lived. Apparently for Six it was okay, since he was in the car moving at 160per hour. That’s how you ended up in that stupid espresso truck Three had rented. Feet on the dash, trying to concentrate on your laptop, unfortunately Three was trying to learn Italian next to you.
“I’m gonna kill him!” You said through greeted teeth, he was shamelessly butchering your mother tongue.
“Be nice Eight.” Five chuckled over the comm. The mission was going smoothly at first, exchanging jokes with Six, Four sending pictures on the group chat from his view up there. 
Eventually everything went south real quick. It distracted you from the urge to shoot at Three.
“You hit one more person and I’m walking?” you heard Five in the comm link, your eyes widened.
“You’ve hit someone?!” you yelled at Six. 
“Grazed him really ..” he tried to convince you
“Totally smashed him, One added, 10/10!”
“Imbecille!” your Italian resurfacing when in stress.
Four scoffed in the comm link "How come she can speak Italian and you cannot?
"She's always been the better twin" Six hissed avoiding another walker
“Definitely.” Four answered in a hushed tone.  
Brushing away Four’s comment you got impatient "One, I need access to that phone!"
One growled  "Bossy, ever so bossy!"
“What did you guys do in there? Why are you covered in blood?” Six inquired, you could hear the disgust in his voice, between cursed and screeching tires, as obviously they were chased by the lawyer’s own TAC team. 
“ The head, neck, and face are very, very vascular. So it’s a lot of blood.” One vaguely tried to explain.
“Oh Eight I think they kill a mafia guy in Italy! You pressed your temples at your brother’s words. 
The lawyer’s phone needed facial recognition more specifically retina recognition… so naturally Two scooped his eye out. What a first mission!
“One for Four?”
“Yeah, go for Four.”
“ We need you.”
“ Of course you need me. I’m here.”
“Remind me, where the fuck is here?” 
“ Here here. Like, here?” Four continued, his evasive answers made you grin.
“Specificity.” One added
“ Here. Right effing here! Top of the Duomo, like we talked about. Look up. Where you going?”
“In the wrong direction. Please help them.” You sighed, Three spun his revolver your way.
“Get that thing away from my face Three!” he grimaced returning to his book
“Oh shit, coming down! Four announced… Coming up North, down on Via de ..via de ..there’s so many fucking vias in Italy!  
“Via De Cerretani.” you cleared
“Yeah, yeah” he sighed annoyed
At some point you momentarily removed your earpiece since your brother was screaming and cursing. Mammà would disapprove.
“You gotta lose that police chopper!” Four was perched on the Sagrestia Vecchia following the Alpha Romeo through Florence’s alleys.
You hacked the chopper on board cam “I have eyes, I’ll tell you when they lose you.”
“dov'è il bagno? …. dov'è il baaagno?..” Three repeated 3 TIMES, you glanced at him really annoyed, fingers itching to unsheathed.
“Buongiorno Uno” he answered at the sizzling talkie.
“Shit’s gone, we’re supper fucked, Four needs an Uber!”
“Way ahead of you, papi!” a loud bang coming from above the truck startled you.
“Buongiorno Quattro” Three started the truck.
His accent really made you cringe. Removing your feet from the dash you dip your head catching a glimpse of Four on the top on the truck.
After a few seconds, he got down and squeezed himself by the passenger window, you scout next to Three with a huff.
Gunshots, and cussing resonated in the comm link.Unconsciously biting your thumbnail, you kew your brother was a good driver but it was stressful. Four leaned in watching the chopper cam on your laptop. His blond hair falling into his eyes, you spotted brown flakes in the emerald green of his eyes. He was so close you thought your heartbeat had sync with his because you felt like adrenaline had rush in.
For a second you locked eyes, he smirked at you, immediately self aware of your agape state you nudge him away from your laptop. One was screaming at everyone in the car, Two was screaming back at him, her French accent even more pronounced. Five lost it in Spanish against Six and One. 
“Ok, the chopper lost sight on you, make the best of it little bro.”
All of sudden “Wannabe” blasted into your ear, you chuckled at your brother’s music taste, until Three announced two black suburban were tailing the green Guila Quadrifoglio. Four reloaded the grenade launcher, you eyed him apprehensive, he just smiled at you like a kid on Christmas day.
“Six fake ‘em out mate, I’m coming to you!” reaching for his skateboard behind you.
Few explosions later you urged them to make in on time at the rendez-vous point.
“You got a superhero on the squad!!” your brother praised Four, these two really got along real quick.
Focused on your next escape route aka arguing in Italian on the phone with the docker you didn’t hear the commotion in the car, the tires screeching, shattering glass.
“Whoa, shit!” Six screamed.
You gasped, feeling something was wrong, a deep pain in your chest you couldn’t explain, furrowing your brows you breathe in trying to chase it away, thinking it was the adrenaline rushing out.
Three stopped the truck at the construction site where you had to meet, him and Four got out gun’s at point.
You got out the truck a second later, your own gun in hand, still feeling weird “Ok let’s get the fuck out of my mother land bef..” you freezed, your eyes landing on the green car.
A deafening silence invaded your ears, the sound of you gun hitting the concrete resonating until your brain caught up, you understood the sudden unknown feeling. 
“NOOOOOO” you cried out running to him, feet skidding on the debris. “Come on baby brother, no, no, no, no” you cradled his face in your shaking hands, your vision blurry with tears, you pushed your forehead onto his, hands bloodied. “please, please” you begged sobbing, murmuring prayers.
 He was gone. You were unable to feel his presence, unable to feel his emotions through that unique bond twins have, you felt lost, incomplete.
 The harbor was the final way out, no one said a word as Four and One put Six in a transparent body bag.
The boat drifting away, Three came out with a bottle of booze and some pizzas, like, the fuck man pizzas right now? You denied the drink, if you were to drink you knew you were not going to stop until you black out. You sat on the edge of the stern, eyes glossy a blank expression on your face. One stood by your side, his behavior cold but uneasy.
“Here’s a toast to a kid I liked.” Three lift his glass
“Are you crying?” Two mocked him
“We didn’t even know his name.”
“We don’t know any names.”
“What was his name?” You didn’t want to say his name, you didn’t want to burst in tears just by saying his name. 
“It doesn’t matter. He was a good man.”
You didn’t expect One to say that, yes he was but in the end what did he knew about your brother.
“I thought I managed the risk. I’m sorry.” One softly concluded not looking at you
“Did you guys had anyone else...family?”
“I think you’re looking at it.” Two told her nodded your way cautiously
They all look at you gravely, please stop you screamed internally; I don’t need your pity, I need my brother.
“Risposa in Pace Fratellino” you whispered as they toss his body into the unforgiving Adriatic Sea. Here you were, the only one left of the Y/L/N family.
After giving One the last update on the phone they’d got, you went to the cabin, to steal a moment alone, cry without a bunch of strangers around. But you bumped into Four.
“Hey ..” he hesitate, searching his pocket he lifted his hand, showing the Cross necklace Six had attached to his stir.
Four didn’t know how much this cross meant to your family, and that did it, bawling you let all your sorrow out clutching at the cross.
Tears you hadn’t shed for your parents, as you try to be tough for your mother when papà disappeared, and then for your brother when mammà died. And now for him.
Carefully Four wraps his arm around your frame, offering some warmth and comfort. Something you thought you had definitely lost an hour ago. Muffling your cries in his white sweater, he held you tighter as he too felt his pain, you heard him exhale and breathe in trying to contain his own tears.
After that it was not the same with Four. Two said once that you did what she called a “transfer”. Meaning you were treating Four as your little brother, but it was definitely not like that, it was something else. Something One had prohibit.
Back at the Haunted House in the California desert, you hadn’t slept all the way ‘home’, you busied yourself packing Six stuff and bring them back in your trailer.
One was standing in the cargo plane, in front of the metal storage cabinet, in which each one of us had to store personal effects, will, things like that, if you happened to die.
He handed you Six’s key.
“Hold on to it, will you? he furrowed his eyebrows retrieving his hand, When that mission is over, I’ll open it. Well if I’m still here.”
He nodded understanding.
“I brought him into this, ...”
“… He said there was nothing he’d rather be doing with his life. That prick.” One was oddly compassionate
You shook your head trying to hold back tears, if you hadn’t hack that asshole back in your hometown, your brother wouldn’t be dead. Two’s French saying was in loop in your head, “Avec des si, on mettrait Paris en bouteille” “With Ifs, we could put Paris in a bottle.” but your guilt was still there, hanging tight.  
 Wally’s head on your thighs you couldn’t care less about his drool staining your jean, watching the nightfall on the California desert, the scolding sun giving place to the starry night, the sky virgin of light pollution you could see so much of the vault. Wally barked scaring you and made his way inside. “Ok big guy, good night.”
Passing by the empty pool you sat on one of the old lounge chairs, when you arrived it became your hangout with your brother and Four, even though it was mostly Four’s area. 
Sometimes Five would pass by on her way to the “gym cargo” as they called it. Four would settle on the edge of the bowl, while you lean on a lounge chair, your brother in the bowl tossing a tennis ball to each of you, tonight was the exception, your brother was not here, tears were, only Four didn’t stay on his side. 
He didn’t ask anything, he squished himself between you and the armrest. Wrapping his arms around your shoulders, face again his chest you sobbed. Being held by him was foreign at first, only used to your brother’s hugs since you’d left your hometown. As he brushed away your hair from your wet face, you looked at him, his mouth slightly opened, brows furrowed slightly, your hand reached for the crease between it, easing it with the pad of your index, his gaze locking with yours at your gesture. His hand brushed a last strand away, burying itself in your hair. He kissed the same spot on you, lingering, nose nudging his sharp jaw, his breath grazed your cheek. Lips hovering each other’s, there was a flash of hesitation that crossed his features, your lips closed on his before you could think. He tightened his grip on your waist, bringing you closer, your cold fingers brushing his cheek. Suddenly shame struck you.
Jerking away from him, stumbling on your two feet, you pressed the heel of your hands into your eyes. Kissing Four while mourning for your brother felt so wrong.  
“Eight..wh ?”
You cut him “If this is coming out of some misplaced sense of guilt, don’t bother.”
He opened and closed his mouth “What the.., you kissed me Eight ..!”
“I .., your voice wavered, I’m not myself right now… “ You had kissed him first, what were you trying to say, yeah he kissed back but argh the fuck was happening in your head. Avoiding his pained look you turned around, fleeing the situation.
“It’s not, just so you know, some misplaced guilt.” he watched you disappear into the night, your trailer alight few meters away.

Friendly reminders about The Flash⚡️
Things I had forgotten or little details I just noticed on my rewatch, maybe even Unpopular Opinions 🤭👀
✨Season 3✨
Flashpoint... oh gosh I used to hate this episode, I literally always skipped it but this time I'm gonna watch it you guys I promise😂
Nvm this episode might not be so bad, we get to see Barry all happy and with his mom and Dad and i-🥺
Omg do y'all remember in season 2 when Barry, Cisco and Harry went to E-2 to stop Zoom and Cisco said that he thought his doppelganger would be like a rich tech genius or sum like that... Not Cisco from flashpoint being a rich tech genius 🤭😃😂
Caitlin... She's a pediatric eye doctor🤭🥲😂 (flashpoint)
Wow wtf I had completely forgotten about Julian 😳
I swear I hate it when they mess so much with the timeline, I just can't keep up
West-Allen kiss count (approximately): 30😘
⬆️ approximately bc I might have messed up 😅
Wow I thought season 3 was all savitar, I did not remember alchemy
Rival, Magenta (portrayed by Joey King, we love her),ɹǝʇsɐɯ ɹoɹɹıɯ and top, monster, shade, plunder, abra cadabra
OK Y'ALL I JUST NOTICED THAT IN THE MAGENTA EPISODE *breathes in* Barry and Iris go on their first date and electric love was playing... The fact that that's the song used in the trend where you kiss your best friend seems rights
Jesse got her powers 😃 we stan Jesse Quick⚡️
CECILE AND JOE I-🥺
Bro HR 🥺
Julian really was a b*tch at the beginning of this season, but his accent tho🥴🤤🥵
That height difference between Cecile and Joe is what I need in life I love them 🥰
Iris is such a badass bro I love her
Savitar is apparently the Hindu god of motion 🤭
Killer frost episode 🤭😃 I love the fact that Caitlin got powers but I still felt so bad for her like she didn't want that, she didn't want to hurt anyone 🥺
She really said some pretty hurtful things to Barry, he messed up everyone makes mistakes 🥺
Barry tricking Killer Frost into turning back into Caitlin was 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 and then when she wanted to apologize and Cisco just hugged her and Joe too i- 🥺❤️🥺❤️🥺❤️🥺❤️🥺❤️🥺❤️🥺❤️🥺❤️🥺 I think that was the first time when we saw Joe And Caitlin hug 🥺
Julian's such an ass bro he really forced Barry to quit and he really did just to protect Caitlin
Y'all ever get chills or just overall goosebumps whenever the music from the other shows start playing in the crossovers? No? Just me? Cool just wanted to know 😅
Felicity fangirling is me
Also Diggle throwing up every time Barry takes him from somewhere is hilarious or just him being done with anything that's not normal 😂
Bro supergirl I- 🥴🤩
NO AND THEN SARAH AHDHAHHAHAA she really said "it's kinda hot" (referring to Supergirl being a bad ass) when they were training lmao I cantttt
Cisco was getting visions of Dante, who was actually Savitar, and was manipulated into opening the box which brought Savitar out and really if it hadn't been for Caitlin, Barry and Wally would've been killed
DANG CECILE AND JOE JUST KISSED WOWWW😁
Their apartment i-
HR really got them a turtle named McSnurtle y'all i-
GYPSY
That scene where they told Joe that Iris was meant to die in the future was so🥺😞😩 I don't even know how to describe it
wally and Jesse were cute 🥺🥰🤌
Cisco and Harry were kinda mean to HR🥺
Grodd just tried to kill Joe and Harry and Cisco came up with a way to see into Grodd's memory through Joe and Istg Joe's face lmao, he's just so done with everything 😂
Dang Grodd's plan really was to kill everyone with nuclear missiles by controlling that military guy and Barry had to try every password combination to stop it just like he did in season 1 or 2 (idk lmao) when he was helping Snart and his father with a robbery
Y'ALL BAHSHHHAHAHA I love GYPSY she really just straight up kissed Cisco and went like "even if I did [like you] you couldn't handle me"
AND CISCO was all like "I'll marry that woman"😩😳😂💀
BARRY DID NOT JUST PROPOSE
Y'ALL WHAT I THOUGHT THIS WAS WAY LATER
I love that scene where they tell everyone 🥺
Bro why was Barry always so mean to Wally like I know he was stressed out about Iris but bro it wasn't Wally's fault 🥺
OMG JULIAN JUST KISSED CAITLIN🥺 they're adorable
Wally did watch Iris die
Jesse moved to E-1 when she was dating Wally for a bit and she stayed at Joe's house with the both of them
Savitar used The Greek myth of Atla to explain why he needed Wally to get out of the speed force ➡️ Atla can't let go of the sky without having someone take it from him.
Ok so by taking a part of the philosopher stone before it was thrown into the speed force, Caitlin technically kept Savitar from coming back. So if Wally hadn't had those visions where Savitar manipulated him into throwing that little piece of rock into the speed force... He wouldn't have been able to escape
That was kinda hard to explain. Idek if it made sense I'm sorry y'all I'm not good with words 😂
I love Harry 🥺
NOT EDDIE IN THE SPEED FORCE 😳
Ok y'all but whenever y'all watch it or rewatch it, there's this very cute and funny scene in S3 E16 min 17:00 between Caitlin And HR where she takes away his drumstick and he just takes out another one but it's very adorable because they keep messing around🥺
Bro the speed force was really being b*tch to Barry when he was trying his best to save everyone and change the future 😩😞
And Jesse was so mean to HR on Ep16🥺
Jay saved them 🥺
Ok relationships are so confusing wtf
THE MUSICAL EPISODE, MON-EL, SUPERGIRL OMG ITS BEEN A WHILE WTH!! Imma rewatch supergirl too😃
Melissa Benoist is so gorgeous 🥴🤩
The way Barry looked at her when she was singing I-
I love their friendship but I kinda ship them too🥺
OH I REMEMBER! this guy was trying to teach them a lesson about love, because they were both having relationship problems
He was also on glee. THE 3 OF THEM! I-
Darren Criss, I didn't know his name
I love this episode
Cisco and Winn And Malcolm singing and dancing, this couldn't get better
Omg I would love to see a Winn-Cisco-Felicity trio. I feel like they would work so great together 😁
IRIS AND MON-EL well actually Tommy Moran and Millie
Their fathers being gangsters is hilarious and their accents 😂
Everyone's facial expressions when John revealed that he was also an Alien 😂
Millie having 2 dads and those being Stein and Joe is great lmao although I never knew if it was because they were hay or it was more like Barry's situation 😂
JOE AND STEIN SINGING AND BARRY IN THE BACK Y'ALL IM🤭🤩🥺
I never thought I needed this 🥰
THEIR DUET IS COMING VDXHSBFVDHA
THEY'RE DANCING 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
This is officially one of my favorite episodes 😃
When they got shot they were very worried for each other and I just love their friendship
HE'S ABOUT TO PROPOSE, HE'S SINGING AHHHHH
COME RUNNIN HOME TO YOUUU 🎶🥺
I really liked how in the episode where Caitlin gets hurt when Abra Kadabra throws a bomb, Julian's the one to operate on her and Iris is right there with him trying to help out, even though they weren't truly friends until later on it shows that they're all really a family
And also Wally and Barry carrying her to the room 🥺
Also the fact that it was Caitlin guiding Julian through her own surgery shows how strong and amazing she is I love her 🤩
Caitlin (killer frost actually) is the 1st to know who Savitar is
BRO CECILE JUST TOLD JOE SHE LOVES HIM AND HE DIDNT- this got too ~umconfy~
Bro killer frost's outfit is pretty hot 🤩
Cisco was afraid of killing Caitlin on accident and that's why he didn't shoot her whenever they were trying to get her🥺
"She's my best friend... And I'd rather it be me than her"
I love him. And I love their friendship.🥺😞
BAHSHAHHA do y'all remember when they erased Barry's memories?
He's hilarious
JAHSHAHAJAJ and now they left him alone with Wally who told him they're basically brothers AND BARRY STRAIGHT UP GOT HIS HAND OUT OF HIS POCKET AND LOOKED AT HIS SKIN COLOR I-
Barry loved anime
He's so happy without his memories, he's gone through so much 🥺🥺🥺🥺
Snart prevented Barry from killing King Shark
HR and Tracy 🥺
The way HR blamed himself after he told Savitar where Iris was and the fact that he does end up saving her at the end is...🥺
Bro I felt really bad for Savitar later
But then he betrayed and 🙂
And now Barry just left
I swear I hated this cliffhanger sm
Cause whenever I started watching it this was the last season and I-
Also Iris killed Savitar

Wrapped Up
A reminder that @linklyshow is a wonderful person! An angel, best boy.
Continuation to my Coraline AU, although this is more like the end of the movie whoops!
The door slams shut behind him. He’s too busy trying to catch his breath and slow down the mounting panic to really revel in the cold draft that washes over his back. 
It’s all normal again. No magic, no bugs, no sand filled needle creatures trying to grab at him-
It’s over.  
When he moves, there’s a slight sting to his thigh. Grazes left from their fingers-
He pulls off his- Robin’s -glove and tucks the door key inside with shaking fingers. A wave of relief comes in and settles in his stomach as nausea. Numbly, he slides down against the wall until he’s slumped against it.
He almost... died in there. In a little door in a little house in the middle of no where with no one to even realize he was gone. 
Shaky breath in. Shaky breath out. Repeat. He grips the glove tightly, feeling the outline of the key on his palm. It helps a little bit, reminding him of-
The front door opens. Wally scrambles to his feet in what can only be enthusiastic relief. 
“Mom! Dad! Oh my god, I missed you so much!” With tear-filled eyes, he barrels into them. Hugs them tightly and breaths in that wonderful, parental smell of home. They’re home. 
“Whoa! Slow down there, kiddo, you act like you haven’t seen us in ages!” 
That’s... that’s not... 
Eyes wide, he whips his head up to see none other than-
“Uncle Barry?!” 
“What am I, chopped liver?” Iris laughs at his side. She smooths a hand over his wild hair and Wally realizes what a mess he looks. 
And that he’s still clinging to them like a life line. 
He quickly lets go, sniffling. “S-Sorry! What are you guys doing here?”
“Well, your parents wanted us to come see the new place, get our opinion on it since, well...” Barry rubs the back of his head. 
“You seemed lonely, all by yourself.” Iris cuts in, giving him that soft smile of hers that makes his chest feel a little too tight. A little too loved. “Sometimes new environments can be hard to settle into, it’s easier to have some sort of familiarity around, right?”
“What better familiarity than family, right kiddo?” Barry ruffles his hair and Wally chokes back a laugh that almost shoots out of his mouth like a sob. 
“But it looks like you’ve been adjusting fine?” Iris says, shaking off her coat to hang on the rack next to the door. “Look at you, all dirtied up! What have you been up to today, Wally? Hopefully nothing too dangerous?” She shoots Barry that secret little look she sometimes does that makes him all nervous.
“What’s the look for, hun?”
“Oh, you know.” 
Wally feels the weight on his chest disappear. A laugh trickles out as he takes their- warm, soft, real -hands and leads them into the house. 
“There’s a garden outside, you wanna see it?”
“Sure! Let’s get you cleaned up first so your mother doesn’t have a fit.” 
“Iris, we’re heading outside, he’s going to get dirty anyway-”
“Barry. Need I remind you of the dog incident?”
“I’ll shut up now.” 
He can’t stop the smile on his face. 
“I’m sorry.”
“Gah!” At the sudden voice, Wally falls backwards and drops in the deep pit he had just climbed out of. 
“Oh, shi- shoot! I’m so sorry!” Hands suddenly pulling him up, too quickly too quickly, the world spinning as Wally rubs the winded feeling out of his chest. Taking a few deep breaths with his eyes closed, sitting up against the stone wall, he feels hands on his shoulders. 
When he opens his eyes, he glares. 
“Oh, you.”
“Uh, yeah. Me.” Robin says nervously. He’s wringing his hands together and actually looks a little... guilty? Wally sighs.
“Whaddya want now, gonna make fun of me again?” Wally moves to stand up but is swiftly pushed back down by Robin’s surprisingly firm hands. 
“No!” 
Rather than the firm, chunky feeling of Robin’s coat sleeves going over his palms, Wally realizes he’s looking for the soft feeling of gloves. He’s looking for warm, soft blue moonlight on a rooftop where he was taken off guard by someone surprisingly kind to him. 
His face tingles where the Other Robin had...kissed him.  
To push back the rising embarrassment and incoming blush, he immediately tries to focus on the stupidbutreallykindacute way this Robin styles his hair. 
God dammit. 
“I.. I wanted to apologize, for calling you weird.” Robin moves from a crouched position over Wally’s lap to sit with a hard thump on the ground in front of him. “I shouldn’t have said that, I really shouldn’t have. It’s just...” He sighs. 
“I dunno, I don’t really have a lot of friends.” Wally snorts.
“You don’t say?”
“Shut up.” He whines out, nudging at Wally with his foot. “Point is, I said some stupid stuff I shouldn’t have about you and I feel bad. I thought you were like the other kids.” He’s hunched over himself, taking off his glasses for once and rubbing at his eyes. 
Curiosity at what the weird kid who’s been harassing him all summer actually looks like strikes Wally like a harpoon. But he’s still kinda pissed, so he looks at Robin’s shoes instead before he sees anything.
... Jesus, those are some expensive shoes.
“What other kids?”
“The ones I go to school with. They... they say shit about me all the time and I didn’t realize you were just joking around. Defensive measures and all that.” He shrugs, voice muffled by his coat sleeves.
“Doesn’t make it all right though.” Wally says.
“Yeah, I know. It really doesn’t. Trust me, I’ve been beating myself up about this.” With a half hearted chuckle, Robin lifts up his left, bandaged hand away from his face, but stays hunched over. 
“Wha- literally? Dude, what-” 
“L-Like I said, I’m beating myself up about it and now I’m getting yelled at for doing that, so I’m apologizing.” Robin cuts in. A hot flash of sadness and anger rips through Wally. 
“... So you’re just apologizing to me so you wont be in trouble anymore? If that’s all, fine, you’re forgiven, now go-”
“God dammit, no! I don’t want-!” Robin’s voice cracks as he slams his bandaged fist on the ground. “I don’t- I didn’t mean! Look, I’m trying to apologize!”
“Yeah, and you’re really bad at it!” 
“I know!” He yells out. 
“I mean, most people would have the decency to look me in the face if they were going to apologize-”
“I know, but I-!” Suddenly he stops. Wally watches the anger flow out of his body and hears him take a deep breath. 
“You’re frustrating as hell, you know that right?” He says quietly to his expensive shoes. 
“Hey man,-”
“Let’s start over!” He yells, pouncing forward and covering Wally’s eyes with his hands before he sees his face.
“Wha- dude! What the hell!” Wally reaches up and grabs at his hands, pulling them off. Belatedly he remembers the other boy is stronger than he looks. He doesn’t get far until his head nearly hits the wall behind him with the force of the other boy’s hands returning to his face. 
“Let’s start over! First impressions are everything, right? We just got off on the wrong foot.” 
“A few dozen times.” Wally mumbles. 
“Just-!” Robin stops and sighs. “...Do you think we could be friends? If we actually tried this time? I wont call you weird, you don’t call me weird, no arguing unless it’s banter because it’s actually kinda fun with you.”
“Mm, I didn’t know friendships had rules.”  
“Less rules, more like guidelines. A, what do people call it? A bro-code?” It’s the most anyone has ever tried with Wally before. He honestly feels a little touched his creepy neighbor is trying so hard. 
“I... I think I can work with that. Y’know, considering how desperately you wanna be friends with me.” 
“Oh shut up!” He can’t help but laugh at Robin’s expense and he’s pleasantly surprised to find the other boy laughing too. 
“God, you’re a mess.” Robin laughs out.
“Me?!”
“Yes!” It takes them a second to calm down, but finally Robin’s hands pull off his face ever so slightly. 
“I...I’m gonna take my hands off, ok? Then we can start over.”
“Dude, why are you nervous? You’re not horribly disfigured or something like that, right? Like, I don’t care if you are, it’s totally fine, just-”
Robin takes his hands off Wally’s face and gives him a smile so blinding he can’t tell if it’s the sun or not. 
Wait, no, it’s definitely the sun. He had his eyes closed for too long. 
“...So?”
“So what? I can’t see anything man, gimmie a second.” He rubs at his eyes while Robin stays strangely quiet. Then he clears his throat. 
“Hi! You must be Wally West, right? I believe you’re renting one of the rooms in the Pink Palace, right? I’m the son of your landlord, Dick. It’s nice to meet you!” 
When Wally opens his eyes, he almost doesn’t believe what he’s seeing. 
Dick Grayson, acclaimed child prodigy and adopted son to billionaire Bruce Wayne, is sitting in front of him. 
Directly in the dirt he had dug up for the tulips he had been planting. 
When Wally just stares at Dick, his smile shrinks and he moves to pick at his bandages. He averts his eyes from Wally.
“I-I heard you were into science, right? That’s partially why you moved here, so you could go to the academy on scholarship? Or was it to take special summer classes? That’s pretty cool either way.” 
“You’re-”
“I’m more of a math guy myself, y’know? And, uh, acrobatics but you probably already knew that.” 
More silence. 
“...Would you like me to grab you water or something? You look kinda pale-”
“You’re telling me,” Wally cuts him off, “That the creepy little shit who kept waking me up in the middle of the night to knock on my bedroom window, who stalked me for most of the summer, and almost got me killed is none other than the Dick Grayson.” 
“Um. I resent the creepy part and... yes?” Wally takes a deep breath.
“Hoooooly shit.” Wally rubs his face with his hands because, wow. Didn’t see that one coming. 
“But you get now, why I had to-”
“Hide your identity and be a total weirdo? Yup. It’s all coming full circle.” He makes a little circle in the air with his finger and Dick punches him gently.
“Hey!” 
“Unbelievable. That’s... good God, I’m friends with a celebrity.”
“Don’t go telling the world, ok? Mostly because people are, y’know.”
“Nah man, my lips are sealed. Besides, you said it yourself, who would I tell?”
“...”
“...Too soon?” Dick gives him a half smile and helps him to his feet. 
“So, uh, what did you mean when you said I almost got you killed?” Wally snorts. 
“That is a long story that I’m 100% sure you’re not gonna believe.” Dick does his little half smile again and Wally decides that he thinks it’s fitting for the other boy. 
“Try me. We’re friends now, I’m legally obligated to believe everything you say.”
“Alright.” Wally looks the other boy up and down, hand on his chin. Dick rolls his eyes with a grin. 
“Your shoes are way too expensive for gardening.” In mock offense, Dick puts a hand on his own chest. 
“Oh yeah? Well your jeans look too new to be gardening in!” 
“My jeans?Take a look at your- dress pants? Really?”
“I might have taken a reaaaally long break from my ballroom dancing classes at the summer house. Don’t worry about it.” 
“I’m gonna, especially when your nanny yells at me for being a bad influence on a ‘high-class citizen’.” 
“Don’t be ridiculous, Alfred would never yell at you. He’ll just give you the scariest silent treatment and cook your favorite food slightly off so that there’s something funky about it, but you don’t know what.” When Wally gives him a strange look, Dick starts laughing about how Wally looks funny when he’s confused. 
Wally realizes rich people are fucking weird.
Wally also realizes he really wants to reach out and hold his hand. 
Then Wally realizes that without the glasses, Dick has really pretty eyes. 
He’s so screwed.

FAQ
In General
Do you take requests? My guy, without requests, this blog will go dry very quickly. We are high maintenance and require a lot of attention.
Will you write all requests that you receive? We reserve the right not to write a request if we don’t vibe with it. We will explain why we won’t, and whining won’t change our minds. Otherwise we will do our absolute best to see that all requests get written.
What if I don’t like something in your fics? If you see something wrong in our fics, feel free to let us know politely. If you are rude, we will make a note of what annoyed you and we will feature it prominently in our following fics until you (or someone nicer than you) asks nicely for us to change it. If it is a trigger we won’t do that, obviously, but we will do our best to tag so that doesn’t happen. Don’t read things if they have a trigger warning for something that triggers you. I shouldn’t have to say it, yet here we are. If you dislike the characterization, we can open up a dialogue and maybe we’ll write you one with a characterization that you prefer. Or maybe we’ll tell you to shove it. Depends on how things go. If you dislike the things we write about (e.g. Death Eaters from Harry Potter), then don’t f***ing read that fic. Blacklist it, whatever. We know why and how they are problematic, we just dgaf. It’s for fun.
Why don’t you have a masterlist/other Tumblr things? We are new to this whole writing thing, Midnight to Tumblr in general, and Serpentine has never written her own post before, so be patient. We are learning this whole thing as we go, and it was meant as more of an experiment than a job anyway. We will do our best to make a masterlist and make the blog easy to search, but it has a learning curve, so don’t be surprised if we don’t manage right away (or ever)
Do you have a tag list? We could try?
How often do you update? Depends on how much love and attention we get. If we get a lot of requests, we’ll be doing a lot of writing, Real Life™ allowing.
Can I reblog? If you make sure our names are still on it, you do what you like, my guy.
Can I tag you in things? Can I give you an internet hug? Ofc. Remember what I said about attention?
Can I message you? If it is for requests, we’d prefer you keep it in the asks, but if you wanna say something, then sure. Keep it PG for Serpentine’s virgin eyes tho. (Serpentine can deal with it, don’t be a wuss - Midnight) (You’re a wanker - Serpentine)
What don’t you write? Incest, non-con, A/B/O (bc Midnight will die), m-preg, underage anything ever, etc. Just keep it level guys. Don’t make it weird.
What happens with any original fiction that you post? I won’t post much of it, and it won’t be anything that I ever have intentions on making into A Thing™ so it’s basically just like our fanfics, go ahead and reblog if you feel just keep our names attached. Also, try not to write anything based off of it or anything like that, but if it sparks something, you do you. We’re reasonably chill until you’re a dick. (Then we’re chillier than a frost giant’s cold shoulder - Midnight)
What happens if I want to be a prick about your writing while on anon? Come at me, bro.
What types of requests do you take? We’re going to try to have a prompts list, or borrow some from fellow writing accounts that are okay with others using their lists, but prompts that you come up with are definitely great! Imagines, multi-chap fics, one-shots, drabbles, headcanons, it’s all fair game.
Serpentine
Name/Nickname: Serpentine, Holly, Andy
Age: 18
Pronouns: she/her/My Lady
How would you describe yourself: I would not
Are requests open: Yes
What do you like writing most: Fluff. I love it when everyone is peaceful.
What do you like writing least: Character bashing. Sometimes I have to for the sake of the plot, but it hurts.
Who do you write for: Marvel - Bucky Barnes, Steve Rogers, Tony Stark, Loki, Thor, Dr. Strange, Clint Barton, Pietro Maximoff (he didn’t die hmmm nope), Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal only), Brock Rumlow (don’t say anything Midnight, I know he’s a dick, leave me alone), Anatoly Ranskahov, Vladimir Ranskahov. Harry Potter - Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, Charlie Weasley, Fred Weasley, George Weasley, Draco Malfoy, Antonin Dolohov, Thorfinn Rowle, Rodolphus Lestrange (although I characterize him as fatherly more than anything), Rabastan Lestrange (although don’t expect mental stability), Fenrir Greyback, Corban Yaxley, Evan Rosier, Lucius Malfoy (if we go AU), Lucissa (Narcissa Black nee Malfoy + Lucius Malfoy), Theodore Nott, Blaise Zabini, Regulus Black, Jily (James + Lily), Sily (which is my take on Sirius + Lily, though mostly they are platonic sometimes I think hmm). I have a lot of my own personal headcanons for nearly all of these characters because I have spent many years of my life ‘living’ in the Wizarding World when I should have been doing my homework, so if something doesn’t vibe for you, I apologise, but I am very specific about my Harry Potter. 
POV & Other Characters: These can be OC or reader, platonic and romantic or unpaired accepted. For Harry Potter, I can also write them as Hermione Granger (like most HP fics are tbh). As for other characters, it’s all negotiable, but with Harry Potter fandom Slytherin characters are much more likely to get the OK bc I’m House biased (Go Snakes). The ones marked as couples are only written as couples, so don’t try to make me pair dear James Potter with anyone other than his Lily.
How long does it take to write a request: If I’m inspired, maybe an hour or two. Now when I post it...
Open to ask memes: Absolutely the hell yes. I love talking about myself.
Special Rules: I do not write smut (yet, bc I am innocent in the ways of the flesh), but I will yeet those to Midnight and I’ll do my best to take any other requests and if y’all wanna drop nasty imagines into the ask box or something, we’re all ears (eyes?). I will write poly ships, though again I reserve the right to decide how (e.g. M/M or nah) and there will be no sin.
Midnight
1. Name/Nickname: Midnight, Kai, (Barnes)
2. Age: 19
3. Pronouns: she/her/Soldat
4. How would you describe yourself: I... am basically a less intimidating Winter Soldier (memory problems, depression, anxiety) and an MCU genderbent Loki because I can be a sneaky little shit
5. Are requests open: YEET
6. What do you like writing most: Fluff. Any time I get to make scary assassins do domestic things... I am there for that
7. What do you like writing least: Death. Why y’all gotta do me dirty like that? There’s more than enough in the MCU alone guys. Can’t we just pretend we live in the Everybody Lives AU?
8. Who do you write for: Marvel - Loki Odinson, Thor Odinson, Tony Stark, Doctor Stephen Strange, Bucky Barnes, Peter Quill, Steve Rogers, Natasha Romanov, T’Challa, Peter Parker (aged up), Pietro Maximoff, Wade Wilson (Deadpool), Gamora DC - Jason Todd, Bruce Wayne, Diana Prince, Clark Kent, Connor Kent, Dick Grayson, Steve Trevor, Tim Drake, Wally West, Barry Allen, Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, Catwoman, Damian Wayne (aged up), Kaldur’ahm, Jaime Reyes, Bart Allen (aged up), Roy Harper (if you want YJ’s Red Arrow, please specify, otherwise my default is Arsenal), Hal Jordan Assassin’s Creed - Altair, Ezio
9. POV & other characters: I prefer reader inserts, however, if you would like an OC I would recommend naming the OC with a nickname so it makes it nicer for other readers to enjoy it. I will do specific ships if I ship them or I know enough about the ship. (eg WonderTrevor, SuperWonder, Stony, Stucky, IronStrange etc) I am also pretty okay with writing smut, but I may not be able to for specific characters/ships due to lack of experience in writing the sin, lol. (and yes, I will take your smut requests for Serpentine’s characters, and work with her to achieve the correct characterization, so long as time permits us to work on it in a timely fashion)
10. How long does it take to write a request: Depends on how busy I am, the alignment of the stars, the weather… jk, in truth, I can be very busy and also have to manage my own health so it can be from a half hour (if I’m really inspired) to up to a week or two. (I will try my best to turn out work in a decent time though, and if I have to ask Serpentine for help I will)
11. Special Rules: Already covered, I guess? Just bear with me on getting things out on time.
Please note; most of this was written by Serpentine at 3 am, I (Midnight), only wrote my own FAQs, also at 3 am. If none of this makes sense, that would be why. Serpentine rarely makes sense without supervision, so feel free to ask for clarification if the wording is awkward.

The World is an asshole - Superboy x Batsis (reader)
So I wanted to write a Clark Kent story but have kind of a writer’s block on it right now so...What’s the next best thing ? CONNER Kent. Yup. Totally. So here’s a story with Conner dating Batsis and blahblahblah. This is somewhat of a continuation of my stories “You’re kind of an asshole” and “they’re kind of asshole”. ...This is too long, sorry for the super long story, hope you’ll still like it: 
PART 1, PART 2
My master list blog : @ella-ravenwood-archives
_________________________________________________
Tumblr media
The World was kind of an asshole. 
It’s the only thought you have as everything happens. 
The World was kind of an asshole. 
Oh  you had enough. 
This was just too much. You couldn’t handle it. 
Why could nothing go your way ?! Why everything had to always be so damn difficult ? You were so close from a nervous breakdown. 
THIS WAS ALL TOO MUCH ! 
And no one could help you. You were all alone in this.
No one could cheer you up. 
Not even Conner’s reassuring arms and kisses, your brothers’ soothing words and hugs or your dad’s smile could make things better. If this thing wasn’t working, your life would just be ruined...
In a last, and full of spite, action, you...punch the AC with all your might.
And, thanks all the Gods that ever existed, it turns on again. With a sigh of contentment you stay in front of the cool air and life comes back to you again. 
It was summer time and the heat was killing you. 
You were a creature of the cool and refreshing air of the night. 
From Gotham City at that, a place where, for over two third of the year, it was rain, thunderstorms and snow. 
Hot weather always got to you. Making you grumpy (grumpier than usually, you were a Wayne after all) and irritable. 
And of course, the AC at the Young Justice’s headquarters was broken, and no one seemed to know how to fix it...Well, that was until you punched the main panel that was in the room you all hung in the most, making it work again somehow. And damn it felt good.
Relishing in the cold wind brushing you, you closed your eyes and sigh once more. After a few minutes of standing there, finally refreshed and in a giddy mood once more, you open your eyes and join your friends back on the couches everyone was sitting on. 
They didn’t even register what you just did, used to you and your antics but...Wally can’t help but say : 
-Do you really have to punch all your problems away ? 
You smile and chuckle lowly, as you sit next to Conner and his arms automatically wrap around your shoulders. 
-Hey, I’ve been raised by the Punch Master, dude. So, the answer is : yes. Yes I do. Besides, AC’s working again so...you know. 
Wally can’t help the smile creeping on his face, though he tries to act completely exasperated for good measure. You’re about to say something else but are distracted by Conner kissing your cheek tenderly...he can never resist. Whenever you’re being even just a tiny bit sassy, he just feels the need to kiss you, because oh damn he loves that part of your personality. 
That’s when he and your brothers come in. 
Your dad. The Batman. He tries to ignore as best as possible your dazed smile as Conner peppers kiss down your jaw, he tries to ignore your girly giggle and looks away, saying : 
-Are you talking about me ? 
And oh he knows the grin on your face is full of smugness. He knows that you’re very happy that he’s finally trying to accept that Conner is your boyfriend but...he also knows that you’re your mother’s daughter, and mischievously teasing him is one of your favorite past time. You turn your head to him, pulling away from Conner and says : 
-And yet again my beloved dad, you surprise me at how great of a detective you are. The best in the World in fact. 
He smirks at you and antics, and his expression ALMOST doesn’t change when his eyes meet Conner’s. There’s ALMOST no suspicion at all in his gaze when he looks upon your boyfriend. 
Conner is still not used to your family (except for Dick that always supported you two) to be nice to him...Like, yesterday morning, when Damian gave him cookies he was pretty sure they were poisoned with Kryptonite but...no. They were just normal cookies. 
It seemed like the threat of never talking to them again worked wonder. But still, it was a bit weird that they were so damn nice. 
You were about so say something when your father turns to Conner and says :
-May I speak to you, Superboy ? 
You roll your eyes at the formal “Superboy” and lay back in the couch, resisting the urge to make-out with Conner just to spite your dad and brothers, and watch as your boyfriend goes to your father. You give the mighty Batman a look that means : “Careful, I’ll fight ya” and he nods, rolling his eyes at you but...he knows you’re not kidding. If he does anything that you think is rude to your boyfriend, then you will fight him...You’ll never hit your dad though (only ACs), but oh your words were sharper than swords. 
You observe your dad as he speaks to Conner, and try to look for any change in Conner’s body..You know your boyfriend can get mad easily, and is always kind of on the defensive and...He’s smiling. And your father lays a fatherly hand on his shoulder. Wow. Ok. That was unexpected. 
When your dad called you to excuse himself from wanting to break you and Conner up, you never expected him to be so into making amend. And yet, every day he surprised you, he even let Conner sleep at the Manor with you ! Though you could totally hear him pace the corridors, trying to listen in to any suspicious noises...Needless to say you did NOT make love that night. You were totally up for it but...The Batman kinda freaked Conner out really. 
You smiled at the memory (it really was hilarious to witness your boyfriend, the super-strengthed super-powerful dude, sleeping like a plank at the opposite side of you, afraid to even brush his toes against your feet because he was scared of a human he could probably break in half if he wanted...well, not like your dad would let him really), and barely register that Conner is back and is sitting next to you again, a stupid smile on his face. 
You quickly glance at your dad who shyly smiles back to you and...What’s happening ? You’re about to ask Conner but he answers before you can say anything : 
-Your dad just told me I could be your official date for tonight’s gala. I mean...if you want to. 
Oh. OH ! This meant a lot. A LOT ! Coming with an “official date” at any social events meant that you were basically announcing that your relationship was a serious one and...were you ready for such a commitment ? Yes. Yes you totally were. You turn to your boyfriend and smile, kissing him on the lips. You pull away to say : 
-Of course I want to Conner, I love you. 
But before he can say “I love you” back, your youngest brother, Damian, comes and sits right between you two, an upset expression on his face and...you can’t help but chuckle. 
Out of all the members of your family, your little brother was the one struggling the most with this all “accepting that his beloved sister is dating a man” thing, and though he’d do some effort, if he was present, he’d always make sure to stand between the two of you...Which spurred him being in very awkward situation as you just didn’t care for his presence and kissed each other above him (you were taller than him). 
Oh, how cute was this little munchkin...
************
You could clearly see he wasn’t comfortable. It was so obvious it was almost painful. It was also totally adorable, the way he’d awkwardly walk with your hand in his, wearing one of Jason’s tuxedo...
When you arrived at the gala event, and got out of the car, you could almost hear people gasped. What ? Bruce Wayne’s precious daughter was...dating ? In the public mind, you were still a little girl even though you were actually an adult now. They saw you grow up, they followed your every step (well, almost every step) and to see that now...you were officially dating someone ? It was something. 
It would make every headline of every newspaper in the area the next day. 
You tried to prep Conner a bit, explaining to him how things would unfold and...he just seemed so sure of himself, saying : “I know, I saw you guys on TV multiple times”, that you ended up not worrying for him and...oh damn he actually had no idea what was awaiting him. 
Flashes of a hundred cameras blinded him, thousands of questions about you and his relationship with you thrown at him in a matter of minutes, all the attention on him and just so many people completely obsessed with you and every single move your family made ! 
You, Bruce and your brothers were used to it. You didn’t particularly like it but...you grew up with it. But Conner ? Or poor man...
You tried to make him feel better by holding his hand tight and smiling a lot at him and you even gave to the public what they wanted...You kissed him. You didn’t think about it too much though, you didn’t think about the articles that would be written with pictures of you two kissing...you just wanted him to feel better. 
And it worked. A bit. As the night went on, he felt more and more relaxed and you...angrier and angrier. 
You know it’s stupid but..you can’t help it. All those girls flirting with YOUR Conner ? Goddammit. Yes, he’s very hot, but he’s also very taken, go away bitches thank you very much. You were getting more and more annoyed when your oldest brother, Dick, taking advantage of a bathroom break Conner had to take and the fact that you were alone right now, came close to you and, throwing an arm around your shoulders said : 
-You know, jealousy makes you look ugly. 
-Wow damn, thanks bro’. 
-You know what I mean. 
-In fact, I have no idea. Except that you just call me ugly, and that you’re a terrible brother. 
He chuckles and you smile at him, as he continues : 
-Oh who am I kidding ? Even when you’re jealous and frowning you’re cute. And there’s really no reason to be jealous. 
-Oh really ? Have you seen all those damn models lurking around him ? Using every moment I’m not looking to wink at him ? Touching his damn muscles RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME ?! 
-Yes I’ve seen them. But I also saw how Conner didn’t even look at any of them. Not one second. He had eyes only for you, quite literally. He kept his arm around you, and didn’t even notice their touch at all, to focus on your damn lips and please, tell him to stop because, even though you know I support 100% this relationship, it’s kinda gross to see one of your best friend lusting after your sister so...
-Oh my god Dick, do you have to make it weird ? 
-Of course I do, that’s what big brothers are for ! 
You roll your eye and your brother leaves as Conner comes back. 
************
The rest of the evening is going perfectly well, except for that small little thing...An ex of yours, son of a billionaire who owns a pharmaceutical enterprise, comes to talk to you and...Thanks god your brothers are here to stop Conner before he punch “the jerk”. 
It’s true though, that this particular ex, Antoine Gregory, always been kind of a jerk, and might have stalked you a little bit after you broke up with him (nothing everyone serious between the two of you...well, you were your father’s daughter you know), until your dad took care of it (to this day, you still have no idea what happened). 
**********
Months go by, and you bring Conner to more and more social event, with no accident noticeable. He blends right in, though he still finds it difficult and weird to stand for photos so much...All around town, no one seem to be able to talk about something else but your relationship ! 
You’re at an important charity when someone, for the first time, ask if marriage is in the question and...The look on Conner’s face. He turns to you, hopeful, waiting for an answer and...oh my God, he totally wants to marry you and you don’t know how to feel about that ! Do you wanna get married ? You love him but...are you ready for THAT kind of commitment ? 
A damn wasp stings you, cutting all of your thoughts and saving you from an uncomfortable and awkward conversation as you go to the bathroom to pour some water on the sting
************
The idea that Conner wants to marry doesn’t seem to want to leave your mind and...You know now. You know what you’d say if he asks you : 
“No.”
Because you’re not ready for this. You’re not ready for that kind of big jump and...The more you think about it, the more it makes you question your feelings toward your boyfriend. 
Do you...actually really love him ? 
After all, you always kind of had a crush on him, because he was so mysterious and handsome..;and the fact that M’Gann was dating him made you jealous and all, which spurred even more feelings but...
Was it really more than a crush ? Because if it was, after almost three quarter of a year of dating, you should kinda think about marriage right ? It should be in the question, and even if you weren’t ready for it, it shouldn’t stir so much conflicted feelings in you ! 
As you lay in your bed, wide awake, you cannot stop thinking about it. 
Do you really love Conner Kent ? 
And as you receive a text from him saying “Good night my princess, I love you” you realize that...maybe it was just some sort of teenage infatuation. 
************
You know you have to tell him. You know it’s not right to keep going as if nothing is happening, as if your feelings towards him start to drastically change, as you realize that;..you were probably never in love with him. 
It was just a crush. That returned your feelings and you were happy but...you didn’t love him. You’re sure of it. Because as you realized this, whenever he kissed you, your heart didn’t beat wildly now. Whenever he held you, you didn’t feel as happy as you used to and...You wished you never realized that you weren’t in love, because things were just so easy before. 
Now, you have to tell him, and you have no idea how he’ll react. But you have to tell him. 
You ask him to follow you in a room far from everyone, and...you tell him. 
The look he gives you as you’re explaining what’s on your heart is shattering. You feel so guilty, and so sad for him but...pretending isn’t the right thing to do either. You couldn’t wait for him to one day propose to you and say “no, I don’t love you” could you now ? 
It had to be said. Fast. Ripped like a band-aid. 
He’s stunned at first and, not quite understanding, he says : 
-But...but I love you...
-I know Conner but...I don’t. Not anymore. I...I just...I’m sorry. 
-What changed ? What did I do ? 
-You didn’t do anything Kon ! It’s not you, I just...I just think I might take a bit too much after my father and be emotionally retarded you know ? Like I thought I loved you but...
-No ? 
You shake your head negatively. 
-So...So you never loved me ? 
His voice is so broken that you’re almost tempted to lie to him and say that you did but...that would give him hope. That would make him think he could win you back and you know it’s just not possible so you agree. 
Yes. You never actually loved him. 
-All those things you said, you didn't mean them then ? 
-I thought I did Conner but...
-No, stop. Shut up. That’s enough. I...I heard enough. And...As you wish. 
-I’m so sorry Conner, we can still be friend, I still love you as a friend and that I know and..
-Yes yes. Sure. I...I just need to go. 
He leaves the room so fast you barely see him, and when you go outside and Tim comes to you to ask what is going on, you shake your head sadly and say : 
-We broke up. 
What ? You and Conner broke up ? But you were so in love ! When he asked what happened you just tell him you don’t love him anymore and your brother seems...confused. Shocked. Stunned. You don’t love Conner anymore ? That’s new...But he already knew you were the one that broke up, as he saw tears in his friend’s eyes when he left the YJ headquarters...
************
“Heartbreak” doesn’t even begin to describe what Conner is. 
Devastated, destroyed, shattered would be closer...He’s so angry at himself to be so touched by you breaking up with him, it was just a stupid relationship, it wasn’t the end of the world, he’d find love again but...he can’t help it ! 
He doesn’t wanna find love again. He wants you. 
He doesn’t want to move on. He wants you. 
In fact, it’s more than that. He knows he will never be able to love again, or to move on...You would forever hold a part of his heart. The biggest part. 
He refused to speak to anyone, especially not you and...even more so since every single person he spoke to just seemed more confused about the break up than anything else. 
It didn’t make sense that you’d break up with him, you were always annoying everyone with him and it was so obvious you were in love but...Maybe not. Maybe they misread you. Reading a Wayne’s emotions properly was tough after all..
But even your own dad who was against the all relationship to start with didn’t understand. When he talked about it with you you just repeated what you told your brothers : you were just not in love anymore. 
Everyone’s pity made him angry, and Conner just...had to go away. He just had to leave. He couldn’t even bear the thought to be in the same building than you without being able to touch you, smell you, kiss you, embrace you...it was too difficult. 
Every time he even had a small glance of you, his heart would be torn away once more, and he’d just want to tear up and GOD HE HATED THIS ! Why couldn’t he be strong ? Why ? 
-Are you ok kid ? 
Conner, startles, makes a huge jump in the air and turns around and...it’s Superman. The man he admires and wants to be close to, but that keeps ignoring him. Yet another one that he loves, but that don't seem to reciprocate, to care at all...Clark keeps a distance with him. 
-How’d you find me ? 
Conner asks, and Clark smiles. 
-I also had a place I liked to go to be alone. My fortress of solitude. And it was similar to this place. 
-You followed me. 
-I followed you. 
-WHy ? 
-To see if you were ok. 
-You don’t even care. What’s the real reason ? 
-I do care. And...I know how tough a break up can be. I know how...
-YOU DON’T KNOW ANYTHING ! The love of your life is Lois ! And you’re with her ! You married her ! You had Jon with her ! I know what you’re going to tell me, that I’ll find someone too one day and blahblahblah but that’s wrong. I won’t find anyone, she was...She was my everything ! My all world ! And I thought...I thought she cared. I thought she really cared, and I guess I was a fool for that. The thing is, I wanted to marry her, to have children with her ! Not now of course, but I wanted all of that. She was my Lois...She...She...and now...She never even loved me Clark...She never even loved me...
Conner falls to his knees or rather...almost does. Because Clark is there. He catches him. And when he starts to sob, to cry and wet Clark’s costume...the man lets him. Because the boy need him. And this time, he can’t ignore it. 
He knows. He sees. He understands. 
Clark knows how you never even loving him for one second, at least not like he wished you’d love him, was destroying him. 
Clark sees how it affects him, not just mentally, but also physically, as if without you he’s just weaker. As if your absence is his actual kryptonite. 
Clark understands, but not quite...because Conner’s right. He never experienced the “true love” heartbreak. He was with the love of his life. And...He had to admit that the way Conner looked at and talked about you...yes, yes you were his true love. And oh terrible it was that this was only a one sided one...
Clark would have never come to see the boy if he didn’t know how important it was, how broken Conner was...His Ma’ told him. She saw him for a few seconds and..Yes. 
Conner was forever broken. He could never be whole anymore. Not without you. 
************
Conner started to avoid the YJ headquarters when M’Gann kept wanting to talk to him. What decided him was this conversation he had with her : 
-How are you holding up Conner ? 
-Fine. 
-Are you sure ? You know you can tell me anything ? 
-I also know that if you want to know anything you’ll just read my mind, as you always do.
-True. And...I don’t understand. 
-What don’t you understand ? 
-She clearly doesn’t love you. I saw it in her mind. She used to but...something changed. I don’t know what. But she doesn’t love you anymore. I checked. And I promise I’m not lying. I wanted to make sure she wasn’t going all “Batman” on you with his “I can’t have a relationship” thing and all and...no. She really doesn’t love you and...
-Why are you telling me this ? 
The pain in Conner’s voice broke M’Gann’s heart.
-Because I do love you, and I’m here, I care. More than her. And you used to love me and I’m sure you can find in yourself...
-I’m sorry. 
-Uh ? 
-If I hurt you just half as much as I’m hurting right now, then I’m sorry. But I...I don’t love you. I love her. With every fiber of my being. And...I’m sorry M’Gann I can’t be talking about this right now. 
He leaves, with the intent of not coming back. 
And his pain is so vivid, that M’Gann can feel it in her brain. It’s nothing compare to what she felt when he broke up with her. Nothing. And she realizes that...Conner’s love for you is way WAY stronger than anything he ever felt for ANYONE. She wished she could talk to you but you haven’t come to the headquarters for so long...
Come to think of it, it’s a bit weird really...
************
You don’t see Conner for month, and surprisingly...it’s alright. What ? You can’t feel guilty forever. It’s not your fault you’re not loving him ! 
Your ex, Antoine, the one that used to stalk you, resurface all of a sudden and...you turn him down. Of course you do. Like, there’s a reason you broke up with him. He seems more confused than angry as to why you’re still refusing him but, whatever right ? 
Dick and Tim try to talk to you about Conner, but you don't want to. You know what they’re going to say and you’re not ready to be guilt tripped. It’s not your fault you’re not in love anymore...Besides, Conner is their best friend, of course they’ll say something defending him. 
No, you don’t wanna fight with them, so you avoid them. 
Come to think of it, you avoid most people really. Even your father, while you always loved his presence. Hell, even your mother. And it almost scares you how you don’t really care, how you don’t mind not seeing any of them. 
It almost scares you how you start to feel nothing for them, just a mild friendship. How your family becomes...secondary. Hell, even tertiary. 
All that’s important right now, is to have fun, and each night, instead of going to patrol, you go out. You haven’t come home to the manor in days and...Bruce knows there’s something wrong with you. 
He doens’t recognize his little girl and he just knows. Something is wrong. 
***********
Seeing you flirting with those guys on the TV is awful. 
Conner doesn’t even know why he’s watching those stupid celebrity news show...Actually, he does know. 
It hurts him like hell whenever he sees you with a different guy (or even girl) each night but...at least he sees you. He sees your smile and he can almost remember how good it felt to hold you in his arms, your smell and...
It’s torture. Pure torture. 
He’s hurting himself by watching those stupid celebrity news, seeing you in someone else’s arms each time...And your smile, it’s not the smile he loves so much...it’s almost..wicked...
One night, as he watches you once more on the TV, something happens. 
But of course it’d happen someday. You were the famous (Y/N) Wayne. Of course they’d target you in such an easy place to access ! 
The camera cuts just as a few heavily armed men enters the vicinity. One shot. One shot and the camera cuts. The last image being your face as the gun turns to you...
He doesn’t even think about it, before he knows it, he’s out. 
************
He arrives even before your father. Actually, maybe your father doesn’t even know what’s going on yet...And Conner isn’t about to wait for him. 
Those guys have guns. Pointed at you. He has to save you...
The nightclub is now empty, expect for you and them. 
You don't even seem scared and...what is going on with you ? He doesn’t recognize you, it’s as if you don’t feel ANYTHING anymore...
He quickly makes up a plan to save you but of course..nothing goes like he wanted it to go. Nothing. 
He enters the place discreetly, and a terrible silence surrounds him. 
Those men, they don’t utter a word, they just point their guns at you. 
He has to do something about it and...Maybe distracting them? But it doesn’t go as planned. Not at all. 
He does distract them. And knocks them all out. But as he turns to you to see if your alright, and as he can see not even an ounce of thankfulness in your eyes...a voice resonates in the club. 
-I knew you would come. 
Conner turns around and...Lex Luthor. His “father” (he was created with a mix of Clark’s and Lex’s DNA). Conner asks, as he unties you :
-What do you want ?! 
-You. And your girl there, gave me the perfect way to reach for you. Especially since your little...break up. I need you Conner, by my side, for a little...project of mine. And now that you weren’t always with her, or that her damn dad...yes I know who he is...isn’t....It was fairly easy to kidnap her. She didn’t even fight. 
Conner turned around to look at you and...no reaction. You have absolutely no reaction, as you’re standing besides him. And it just doesn't look like you at all, normally, you’d be fuming, and those armed guys ? You’d have kicked at least three of their asses before being submitted down ! What was happening to you ? He’s about to touch you, for the first time in agonizing months, he’s about to finally touch you, feel your skin again, as he aims for your bared shoulder (sexy dress by the way) but...he suddenly feels weak. Oh so weak. 
Kryptonite. It’s kryptonite. And as he falls on the floor, he looks at you and...you’re looking back at him with absolutely no feelings in your eyes. Nothing. As if you were empty...He barely hears Lex’s voice as he says :
-I lied, I don’t actually need you. Just...pieces of you. I understood long ago that I couldn’t control you, but creating a new being with parts of you ? Yes, that I can do. 
Conner doesn’t feel fear as he sees, from the corner of his eyes, Lex Luthor coming closer and closer no...all his focus is on you. And it hurts. More than the kryptonite. 
It hurts to see you like that, to see you looking at him with such little feelings...did you say that you still felt friendship ? Yet, there is nothing in your wonderful (E/C) eyes right now...Or...is there really nothing ? 
As the light of the kryptonite illuminates your face and Lex crouches next to Conner, your brow furrows. And when he says : 
-I have no idea what’s wrong with you kid, but thank you for not doing anything right now haha. I know the bat, and I know the cat, I was assuming their daughter would be a pain in the ass but I guess not and...
Yes. This makes you react. A kick. A nice kick to the chin gets him just fine. 
Lex falls backward, and he’s pretty sure you broke his jaw. Damn good, powerful and well placed kicked. Definitely Batman’s daughter. 
But something is wrong with you. It’s like you acted out of automatism rather than because you really wanted to defend Conner. And if there’s one thing that Lex is good at is...taking opportunities. 
You have fast reflexes, but you feel like your mind is clouded and...Lex’s kryptonite sharp knife is coming fast toward you and...it never hits you. 
Conner. 
He stood up, he somehow fought the kryptonite and stood up and...the knife is deep in his stomach. And...
Your fists move on their on. 
One punch. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six. Seven. Eight...you loose count. 
You’re beating Lex Luthor to a pulp, that’s all you know. At some point, someone is taking you away and...
-Dad...
-Yes, yes I’m here my little one...
-Conner...
What happened ? Why do you feel like you missed a lot ? Those past few months are such a blur...And Conner. 
-CONNER !! 
-It’s ok, it’s ok he’s...
-CONNER !! CONNER !! 
It seems like it’s the only thing you can scream, and as you see him on the floor, bleeding out, Tim next to him already trying to fix him...Your heart breaks. 
Were you going to loose him ? What happened ? Why was he stabbed ? And by what ? By who ? 
Why did you feel like you already lost him ? No. No you couldn’t loose him. No ! 
He wanted to marry you, and you wanted that too, not now, but you wanted and...No, you couldn’t loose him ! 
-CONNER !! 
You’re almost sure you heard him whisper, his voice way too weak, “(Y/N)” but nothing is certain anymore and...black. Everything is black.
************
You wake up in a hospital room, and you’re pretty sure it’s on the League’s Watchtower. It just doesn’t seem like any hospital room and...Your dad is there, asleep next to you. Your brothers too. And Conner. But...why is he so far in the corner of the room ? 
-Conner...
You whisper. Your voice is hoarse and your throat hurts but...he ears you. Of course he does. 
He opens his eyes and looks at you and...he looks so awful. 
And he doesn’t approach you...At least, not until you raise a hand weakly, and he finally dares to come. Slowly. It’s so unlike him...
-What...happened...?
You barely remembers and...He explains. 
And you understand. Oh you understand. 
Months of being heartbroken and lost made him...afraid of you almost. Afraid that you’d hurt him further. He explains the all breakup, and how you slowly drifted further away each days from your family...but you don’t remember any of this ? You love Conner. You know it. No one ever made you feel like this. And your family ? It’s everything to you. 
You don’t remember any of that. The last thing you remember is...
-The Wasp sting. It’s what...changed you. Your ex, that...jerk. His father has a shady pharmaceutical enterprise where they did tests and...they have a “feeling inhibitor”. Suppose to be used on humans to make fearless soldiers. But the idiot thought it only worked on love. thought you’d stop loving me and he would have a chance again. Your dad gave you an antidote and I...i...
His voice breaks and your hand running in his hair is the best thing he ever felt. This nightmare was over. You were back...
As Conner explains, things start to make a bit more sense. Antoine released the wasp right next to you and you killed it as it stung you were the only one touched. And oh...that’s why it seemed like you just got out of a bad dream...
But you don’t care about yourself. You only care about him. And the more he talks about those past few months, the more he leans in your touch, and the more you feel awful. 
-I’m so sorry Conner...I’m so sorry...
-It wasn’t you...
-I’m still sorry...I love you...I love you I didn’t lie, I love you. I love you so much...
Conner’s heart flutters and..yes. You love him. So much that you outmatched an incredibly powerful drug that killed all your feelings as Lex stabbed him. You loved him so much that your mind ignored the CHEMICAL drugs and saved him. Because his life was in danger, you overcome the impossible...
You loved him. You cared. And that’s really all he wanted in life. 
You were back... 
You went to grab him but accidentally touch the area where he got stabbed, that wasn’t healed properly yet and...he winces. You pull your hand away but he grabs it. He’s not about to let you go again. And as he wraps your arms around his shoulders, sits on the bed and bend down to kiss you...He feels alive once again. You’re here. And you love him. You truly love him. His feelings are returned. Well...not exactly : 
It is impossible that you love him as much as he loves you. 
But still. You do love him. And as he deepens the kiss he cannot help but think about...
-LET GO OFF MY SISTER FOR GOD’S SAKE !! 
Damian somehow managed to jump on your boyfriend’s back (yes, your boyfriend, he’s yours, you’re his) and woke everyone up and...you gotta admit, Conner trying to untie your brother from his back, Damian trying to bite him, and your dad and other brothers waking up with a start and automatically going on a fighting stance ? Perfect. Perfectly hilarious. 
___________________
It’s so long I’m so sorry. It’s also very “meh”, worst than “meh” really...I feel like it’s rushed as usual, and does it make sense ? Thanks a lot if you read the entire fucking thing ! and...yeah. Meh.

"We can never start again", Dick and Tim?
Tumblr media
So because I got quite a few of these requests, and this was similar to another one I got I decided to put the two of them together. This one is pretty angsty, sorry about that guys, though it was for the angst meme so maybe not sorry. 
Either way, enjoy. : ) 
Dick frowned down at his phone and sighed, flipping thedevice over on his table to better ignore the sting of being blown off by hisbest friend. He was sure there was a good reason Wally hadn’t even texted tocancel their game night, everyone in Dick’s life had good reasons for missingthings. Lately it seemed worse than usual.
It was fine, Dick could find a relaxing night in somewhere else.Tim was in town, and as far as Dick knew he was staying in the next few nights.Tim was probably better company today than Wally would be anyway. Dick didn’thave the energy to keep up with his friend.
He picked his phone back up and tucked it into his pocket beforestanding and scooping his keys from the bowl he’d tossed them into. Tim wascalm, analytical, and wouldn’t mind letting Dick snuggle up next to him as helost himself in case files.
While Wally’s blowing him off still stung a little, Dickcould at least be thankful for it, the more he moved the more he realized allhe wanted was the quiet, warm companionship of one of his family members. Theweek had been a long one, with more failures than successes both during the dayand at night. Right then all he wanted was a hug. And not the kind where hethrew himself over one of his brother’s shoulders and forced one of them, butone that was freely given for comfort.
Tim’s apartment was less than ten minutes from Dick’s, andeven in that short time his need for companionship had doubled. Dick didn’tusually ask for a lot. He preferred to move, to do and to act. He liked beingthe one giving, and acting as the glue to hold his family together. It kept himgoing, seeing them happy and whole. Watching his siblings heal or grow closerusually helped fix anything hurting in him.
But he was so tired. The wear of Gotham, the mask, the fightBruce and Jason had only days ago. On and one it went.
He knocked on Tim’s door, a smile plastered onto his face.Anything so Tim wouldn’t think he needed something, or had come for work. Hisbrother was so busy he’d probably assume Dick was trying to squeeze one lastfavor out of him. Yeah he kind of was, but it was probably the least intrusivefavor anyone could ask for. Dick didn’t want to use Tim, he just wanted to sitwith him.
“Dick?” Tim asked when he opened the door. “What’re youdoing here?”
“Timmy, hey. Alfred told me you were back for a while, Ithought I’d come by and see how my little bro was doing.”
“Oh,” Tim said, his shoulders relaxing. “I’m fine, but I’m alittle busy right now Dick. If you’re just here to chat maybe we can grabcoffee in a few hours? Or plan something for tomorrow?”
Dick held back a disappointed frown. “Right, that’s alright.I won’t impose.” He gave Tim another smile. “I just wanted to check on you,that’s all.”
“Thanks, there’s this Titans case that’s come up and my headalready feels like it’s going to explode from it all.” Tim said. “Otherwise I’dbe happy to have you.”
“It’s ok, I’m used to it.” Dick told him. “Everyone’s gotsomething lately, and no one’s got time for their big brother.”  He said it with a half hearted chuckle that hehoped hid the bit of bitterness he couldn’t stop from seeping into his voice.
Was it too much for him to want some comfort? Too much forTim to let him curl up on the couch just to be near. Dick didn’t even have totalk to him. He just wanted something that he didn’t have to give.
“Dick.” Tim sighed. “I didn’t mean it that way. You know Ienjoy having you around.” He ran a hand through already messy hair. “But I washoping to have some quiet days away from the team, and now not even a day laterI’m dealing with another mess.”
“I’m not trying to bother you, Tim. I, I just wanted tospend some time with you.” Dick said.
This had been a bad idea. Dick should have tucked his lonelinessaway in the corner of his mind and taken it out on some two bit thugs insteadof seeking something he shouldn’t have to ask for.
“You know, you’re everything to me.” He said. “Yet sometimesI feel like, I’m nothing to you. To any of you.”
“Don’t start that, Dick.” Tim said. “Don’t try to manipulateme like this. I told you I’d give you some time later and I mean it.”
Dick let out an outraged cough. “Manipulate? This isn’t memanipulating you, Tim. It’s been as long of a week for me as it was for you, Ijust wanted to see my brother and take some comfort knowing he was fine.”
He clenched his fists, “Obviously your okay, or you wouldn’tbe assuming things like that.”
He turned and started down the steps. “It was good seeingyou, Tim.” He threw the words over his shoulder, not trying to hide the angerin them now.
Tim’s voice stopped him. “Dick, wait.”
“What?” He looked back over his shoulder.
“Look, I’m tired and I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have taken itout on you.” Tim said, his voice pleading. “Why don’t you come in and we canstart this night over? I’d really like the company.”
Dick shook his head, “Sorry, but you know as well as I dothat what’s done is done. We can never start again.”
He turned left his brother standing in the doorway, he’dprobably regret it in an hour, and end up calling Tim or showing back up a few afterthat, but for now it felt good to just leave. It didn’t feel as good as a fewpeaceful hours curled up with family, but it was more than the aching hurt thathad been eating away at his chest since Wally’s no show and pulling up to Tim’sdoor.

OK KO Let's Be Heroes
So it’s the new show that I found out it first started as shorts but the official show aired on August 1st of this year 2017 so it’s very recent. Just very fresh and new.
It’s a show I’ve mentioned and the last post mentioned about a show. Also Loud House is on.
I found out well…I first started to watch the show thinking now got it August 15th during the last Summer week on a Tuesday at Pizza Hut. The first episode I saw was, “My Dad Can Beat Up Your Dad” if I got the title right just I wanna keep talking along with, “You Get Me” if that was the new episode of that day or I don’t know if that was no it seemed so.
Really to be honest I like it.
Including I will say I like Steven Universe, The Loud House, Wander Over Yonder, We Bare Bears, and others.
I don’t know why I’m gonna say and I feel like just certain fandoms mainly with Steven Universe with all that drama and some shit. Including Wander Over Yonder was a show I deeply loved or just it’s a show I was mainly positive about it.
How I feel about OK KO is that I guess I feel the same way a bit. It’s a show that’s honestly made me happy.
It’s a silly show and the art style is supposed to be weird or just…it’s crazy. Including even told a friend who did not reply also he hasn’t watched the show yet I said I’m surprised no one complained about the art style. Yet a lovely blog I follow…it’s a blog about people getting really angry at cartoons and I basically kind of said the username.
Yet that’s not the point.
Almost put yet again but the show is entertaining. It’s silly and honestly heart warming.
Including even thought I wonder just when it’s gonna get a bit more serious. I’m kind of thinking and finally saw, “Face Your Fear” today hinting and setting up some stuff.
Spoilers honestly I’m surprised and just confused by this so called flash back with a sandwich and just at times saying it’s the same thing or some shit. While the episode I saw today gives some more context to it I suppose.
But sorry the next new episode next week from what I remember seems like it will be going to start that.
Yet back to my view points. I seriously like the show. It’s very light hearted at times despite certain stuff. Including it’s kind of crazy but just…really it makes me laugh.
Reminds me a bit of Wander Over Yonder of how much that made me laugh if I remember.
Including about the characters I basically like them all. Despite honestly the villains are supposed to be villains or some shit.
Such as KO who just even said it in my head a cinnamon roll his personality and just the way he acts. He’s adorable and just so helpful. It’s that very positivity I like quite a bit.
Really a lot of the characters are likable and funny in their own ways. Such as Rad, Enid, Mr. Gar, Carol, and sorry or meh I was switching the channel and some ticks of keep changing. I’m gonna wait a bit to see the title just OK KO is on that’s what I switched it to.
That’s the title, “Just Be A Pebble” another nice or great episode.
Also their isn’t really one episode that bothers me. But also it’s still fresh but it’s a good thing and hope for the best.
Now back to characters even the so called villain characters are entertaining too.
A random thing what I find quite nice when I heard his voice from the 2nd episode Lord Boxman is voiced by Jim Cummings and that’s so cool. Including I was remembering Cat from Catdog and some other characters he voiced.
Including I know the voice yet I don’t know the actors name who voices the character Wally The White. His voice I an familiar with. He’s from The Princess Bride if that’s correct.
Also what shocked me even more was when I was on Wikipedia one of the characters Professor Venomous is voiced by Steven Ogg God damn Steven Ogg sorry I’m not being overly excited lol just normal to smile even right now.
He’s just an actor I like and surprised he’s in the show. Including the promo for the new episode I think that’s his voice. But the episode his character was in I can tell that was him.
Also when I first saw the show I thought the voice of Ruby was KO but I was wrong.
Including the creator of the show Ian who’s Rebecca Sugar’s I think Husband and as a joke called this show or something.
Rebecca Sugar’s husband or boyfriend’s cartoon or some shit like that to a friend of mine who hasn’t watched the show.
The guy voices Rad and he’s funny as well.
Also Ashley Burch voices Enid and looked her up I think two days ago or forgot she’s voiced quite some characters in some media I’ve seen and played.
Sorry I wanted to randomly talk about The voice actors because some I was surprised and liked quite a bit.
Really I don’t know why I was nervous to talk about the show or just…I’m still new. Even if like the first time I watched Loud House I was like oh my God I love this show a shit ton. Because it was rare I liked a Nicktoon very much in very long time.
Yeah also the new episode promo is on for the show. Next Monday it said normal to smile sorry.
Yet yeah I really enjoyed Loud House yet as time went on. The show is still good and I like it. Also still waiting for some new episodes but hey I won’t have to stress about new episodes.
It’s just my opinion on how certain episodes are handled some of them I actually change the channel or not turn to the show when it was really in my head a bit when theirs an episode I don’t like going to come on.
I should just say this random thing. Including I think other people feel the same way.
I’ve been wanting to say I really, just really like Enid just a lot. I just really do.
Random shit just I kept saying it to myself can I just head canon her as 18 and Pansexual since she’s been working at the Plaza for quite a long time like Rad as seen in, “The Legend Of Mr. Gar” if I got that title right. Now, “Presenting Joe Cuppa” is on and finished that as his name was said by Mr. Gar it’s another nice episode.
Since I’ve mentioned that I hope it can get off my mind. But just…this seems to be a thing with certain female characters and I think people might understand what I mean. Yet I’m just nervous just…it’s how I feel towards certain characters at times.
Also I wanna say the relationships between characters are just very nice which leads into the whole heartwarming thing. Including certain lessons. It just very good feeling. Kind of simple at times but makes you think.
Along with the other characters that aren’t as important are great too. Quite some funny ones as well. Including almost put also first for this paragraph but never mind.
I’m trying to think oh yeah the music is good. Almost left food instead of good. But even the ending music is very nice and soothing.

“You’re kind of an asshole” - Superboy x Reader
I just finished season 2 of Young Justice (I know, I’m super late to the party)...And I kinda totally love Conner. So. Here we go. 
Summary : Reader is Batman and Catwoman’s daughter, and has a thing for Superboy...Maybe part one of a series ? Don’t know yet. 
PART 2, PART 3
My masterlists blog :  @ella-ravenwood-archives
_______________________________________________________________________
You were SO DONE with Superboy and Miss Martian lovey dovey behavior. So damn done. They were always smiling stupidly or looking lovingly at each others and all of that bullshit. Besides, you totally had a crush on Conner since the day you met him, and seeing them together made your heart ache a bit. 
Except that you were wrong. Because his eyes shone with love not for Megan, but for you...But you didn’t notice. You thought he was looking at her when he never was, as you were always there, in the background. You never even noticed that he kept his eyes open while kissing her to stare at you. Your oldest brother, Dick, noticed, and was fomenting a plan to clear things up for the both of you, hopefully not hurting M’gann in the process. 
M’gann was feeding him a cookie when you finally had enough, rolling your eyes to the sky, you left the room under his gaze, unaware of his attention. 
****************
She broke up with him. Miss Martian. You didn’t think about it too much, as they already broke up before, because Conner couldn’t stand her mind reading thing (you hated it too, and made a point of singing a very annoying song in your mind whenever she was around). You thought they were just being dramatic, but months passed and they still didn’t get back together...You started to be hopeful. 
You didn’t know the reason they broke up, and you didn’t really care...You should have cared though, as the reason was that M’gann finally gave up. 
She always knew Conner had a thing for you, but since he decided to date her, she thought she could change his mind, that he could fall in love with her. But she was wrong. She could read in his mind that, no matter how hard he tried to shove you away from his thoughts, you were always there. She didn’t really understand why he didn’t tell you anything while it was clear you liked him too...or maybe it was clear only to her, because she could read your mind, and when you didn’t sing an annoying song, he crept in your thoughts ? She didn’t know, what she knew however, was that Conner was in love with you, and not her, and there was nothing she could do about it. 
So she broke up with him. He didn’t try to stop her, and she realized that he couldn’t fake it anymore...She loved him, and seeing him struggling with his feelings hurt her too, so she decided to join your brothers in trying to come up with a masterplan to get you two together. 
It wasn’t easy. Whenever they made sure you guys would be alone together, Conner showed nothing but contempt and annoyance towards you, and you equally answered with your natural sarcasm and wittiness. If they didn’t know you two liked each other, they’d probably just assumed you hated each other. 
No matter what, you two couldn’t get along, and in a few seconds you’d get into stupid fights over anything and everything...
Dick quickly realized that his friend was just scared shitless. Conner was afraid that you wouldn’t return his feelings, because that boy had enough abandonment and unrequited love issues to get into it some more. So instead of letting his feelings getting the better of him, and so smiling at you or anything...he acted like he hated you. Kindergartener’s behavior. 
You weren’t the kind of person to let anyone walk on your feet, you were the goddamn Batman and Catwoman’s daughter ! No one could be mean to you without you responding...and oh responding you were, alright. 
Your father had to intervene once, because after an oral joust between you and Conner about how the other one sucked so bad, you lost your cool and went all Damian on Superboy, taking him by surprise by kicking him so skillfully in the face, that he fell backward...And being the impulsive man he was, Conner stood up quickly and god knows what would have happened without the severe voice of your dad scolding you two. You stopped to face the Batman. He finished his long speech about camaraderie with those sentences : 
-You’re suppose to be a team. Can’t you at least act civil toward each others ?
Silence. You glared at Conner, he glared back. Your dad sighed. 
-Y/N, I expect better from my daughter. I taught you to...
-Please dad, stop. First, as if you always stay calm yourself. Second, he went too far, like I’ve done nothing to him, for real, he always starts. Third, I might be your daughter, but I’m also mom’s, and let’s face it, impulsivity is in my blood. Fourth, I’m so not in the mood for a sermon. So, yeah, I get it. I’ll stop. I’ll just ignore him from now on. It’s just so damn difficult when he’s so good looking and cool...
You mumbled the last sentence and no one but your dad understood what you said. He smiled gently at you, suddenly understanding that you had a crush on Superman’s clone, and that’s why you were acting that way (it didn’t surprise him that you reacted violently, as his relationship with your mom, Selina Kyle, was also...kinda special). Oh my God, you had a crush on his best friend’s clone...He wasn’t sure how to react to that, so he decided not to tell you anything and go to your brothers instead to know more about the all ordeal. His little girl couldn’t grow up so fast...
************
After the incident involving your dad, you did exactly what you promised, you ignored Conner, and he became even broodier and more silent than before. He avoided you as well, and when he couldn’t, he just stayed as far as he could, but couldn’t quite help but give you some puppy eyes when you weren’t looking. You also had the most difficult time not to speak to him at all, you almost missed your constant fights...almost. 
Dick was getting desperate, why were you both so stubborn ? 
***************
Conner entered the common room of the Young Justice headquarter and sighed with relief when he realized you weren’t there. His heart dropped a beat as well, when he realized you weren’t there, he wanted to see your face today...Oh god he hated all of those contradictory feelings he had when it was about you...
He sat awkwardly next to M’Gann, knowing that she was still somewhat in love with him. The rest of the Young Justice was there, as you had a meeting with Batman, Red Tornado and Black Canary about some missions. The leaguers were already there too, talking to each others. 
Wally looked at Conner, and couldn’t help but ask : 
-Ok what’s the deal dude ? You seem even more uncomfortable and pissed than usual ? 
Conner scoffed but didn’t answer. M’gann did it for him, unfortunately... 
-He’s just afraid I won’t take well the fact that he’s in love with Y/N. But it’s OK, I think it’s better like that. We weren’t really...on the same page you and I Conner.
Batman and his sons (but Dick) froze, glaring at Superboy. Of course by now, they kinda all knew, didn’t mean they had to let it happen though. Damian especially felt like he had to protect you, thinking Kon-El wasn’t good enough for you. He idolized you, though he’d never admit it, so he was extremely critical when it came to who was allowed to flirt with you or not. 
Conner shifted awkwardly in his seat, he definitely wanted to be somewhere else right now, and he started to feel angry at Miss Martian. How dare she look into his head again ? 
-Also, I know you don’t like when I use my telepathic powers but, just so you know...She feels the same. 
And on that note you entered the room, not leaving any time to Conner to process what his ex-girlfriend just said. Everyone was staring at you, and you immediately noticed. 
-What ? Something on my face ? 
No one answered you, and Red Tornado just started his speech about your coming missions. You still felt your friends’ gaze on you, and gave your father a questioning look...the way he looked away alarmed you. What the Hell was going on ? 
Conner stayed silent during the meeting, M’gann’s word replaying in his head. She was feeling the same ? Really ? ...His heart started to beat wildly. 
*************
After the meeting, you left quickly with your father, as you had important things to do in Gotham, and he didn’t see you for a few days, not able to do anything about what M’Gann revealed. When he questioned Damian about your whereabouts, your little brother told him to mind his own business, and to stay away from you or he would...Tim shoved Damian, telling him to stop acting like a brat, and told Conner that you were on vacation at your mother’s place. Probably trying to stop her from stealing anything, and getting frustrated at her questions about your life. You didn’t really like to speak about yourself...and your mother had a bad tendency of wanting to know EVERYTHING. 
When you finally came back, Conner tried to be nicer towards you...but his fears got the better of him, and he just resumed his cold behavior with you, too scared to be hurt. You kept ignoring him. 
Dick sighed, how was he gonna make things work...
******************
Turned out, in the end, Dick’s help wasn’t needed. You sorted things yourself. 
At the end of a particularly difficult mission, the team went back to headquarters beaten. Conner was being a total dick to everyone, and you understood why...Superman came to help you guys on the mission, and plainly ignored Conner. He acted as if he wasn’t there at all. But even though you understood, you weren’t gonna let it pass. Or rather, you were, up until Superboy almost hit your beloved older brother Dick who was just trying to cheer him up. You got between your bro and Conner.
-Has anyone ever told you you were kind of an asshole ? 
Granted, maybe that wasn’t the best thing you could start a conversation with...Like your father, sometimes, you were a bit socially retarded. Connor glared at you, and you gave him a provoking smile, which sent him over the edge. Months of pent up feelings exploding...but in the wrong way.
-How dare you ?! You don’t even know me ! 
-I know you enough to know you’re kind of an asshole. 
-Oh because you know everything about everyone right ?! You’re the Batman’s daughter, you’re just the best. 
You just smiled at him, which unnerved him even more. How could you stay so calm ? How could you be so damn attractive at the same time ?! 
-You know, I get it. It ain’t easy being you. Superman is ignoring you, which is weird cause he’s actually a great dude, like he never forget my birthday for exemple, you know. You think you’re just a clone, doom to be another Superdude without your own identity and all that shit...
Conner just glared some more toward you, but you could see a hint of sadness as well. You knew it since the first time you met him. His fits of anger were just hiding the fact that he was a sad guy, that he felt alone. You decided to change your tactic, maybe provoking him wasn’t the best way to actually get to him, to calm him down. And you couldn’t bring yourself to actually hurt him...Fighting over petty things ? Yeah, sure. Actually hurting his feelings ? Never. He was about to leave when you added : 
- It’s clear though that you have your own personality...like, you’re really not like Sups, you’re your own person Conner. Really. But you don’t wanna talk about your feelings and they’re eating you from inside, as cheesy as it sounds. You gotta talk boy, you gotta tell us what you think. Obviously you’re not gonna tell me, cause you can’t stand me, but like...you’ve got friends here. Tell one of my brother. Tell Kaldur. Even Wally or M’Gann. They’re your best friends. Tell Tim. Just, talk. So, you know, quit the broody behavior, it’s suppose to be a “bat family” thing. You can’t get better if you don’t wanna improve you know ? 
Conner just looked at you, stunned, no trace of anger or annoyance on his face anymore. 
-You...You think I can’t stand you ? 
-Oh so that’s the only thing you remember from my heartfelt speech eh ?
He didn’t answer, so you continued :
-Come on Conner, you’ve been nothing but downright mean to me since day one. I don’t even know what I did. Like, usually, I get it’s because of my sarcasms, or because I always wanna be right, hate to be wrong, that people dislike me. But you ? I never even said a word to you when you just started to be a dick to me. 
Conner didn’t say anything, and since he looked like he was  calm again, you were about to go change and go home, because you didn’t really had anything to add, when his words hit you like a tsunami : 
-I don’t hate you at all. Quite the opposite. I just...Don’t know how to act around you. You’re the only one that...makes me feel like that. That makes me happy by your mere presence, and it’s just so scary, because...I just don’t know how to react. 
He would never have dared say all of those things if M’gann’s words weren’t still freely flying in his mind. She said you felt the same way he did. She said you loved him too. And he hoped to God that she wasn’t playing a mean trick on him to get revenge of him dating her only to try and forget about you...But Miss Martian wasn’t a bad girl.
-...What ? 
You asked. The entire Young Justice were staring at you guys, Wally even managed to make some pop corn as the action was happening...You completely forgot their presence. 
-I don’t hate you. At all. But I don’t know how to...act around you. I don’t know what I’m suppose to say...So...I...Do the only thing easy, I provoke you. Because I want to talk to you, but...I don’t know how to, so I just...try and get a reaction from you in the only way that is natural to me. I piss you off on purpose, just to hear the sound of your voice.
Silence. Your friends’ were on edge. What was going to happen ? 
-I...Don’t know how to act around you either. My dad is emotionally crippled, and my mom hides all her feelings behind her humor...Also, my brothers are total noobs about...Things like that, so I don’t have any model to follow, to tell me how to act...When people provoke me, I usually have a witty answer and then I ignore them, but I can never do that with you...I have to...Keep talking and acting mad...You’re confusing me.
Imperceptibly, you were getting closer from each other. Your friends’ held their breath. 
-It’s funny, I’m pretty sure we both know what we’re talking about and yet, we don’t say the words...
You looked at Conner curiously, what was he talking about ? 
-What words ? 
-You know. The one that describe how we feel. At least...how I feel...
-I’m like 97% sure I feel the same...
And yet, none of you said the words. Not able to contain himself more, Dick just yelled  : 
-Oh my god just say “I love you”, it’s not that difficult alright ?! 
Everyone, including you, laughed. Conner’s heart lifted away from his chest, toward you. Relief, that’s what he was feeling. Because he could see in your eyes that yes, you did love him. He could finally recognize the spark that was in your pupil. And he knew he loved you. Before knowing what he was doing, he kissed you. He got scared for a second, as you didn’t respond, but once you got over your initial surprise, you definitely reacted. 
Your friends’ howled like wolves, and whistled. When you stopped kissing, you could see Dick and Tim trying to hold Jason and Damian back, explaining to them that you could handle yourself, and that after all, you kissed back...You almost went to them to scold them and tell them you were perfectly able to handle yourself indeed, when Conner whispered something in your ear. 
-I love you Y/N. 
You smiled at him, kissing him once more. 
-I...love you too, Kon-El. 
You were about to kiss for the third times when you felt a large hand on your shoulder shoving you away. You ended up behind your father, as he towered over your new boyfriend, pointing a finger at him. 
-No one kiss my baby girl. 
Rolling your eyes to the sky, you walked around your dad. It was going to be quite something to convince him he didn’t have a choice but to accept that you were growing up. Stubbornness was running strong in the family...With a side look, you called your oldest brother to the rescue, and he arrived, loyal as always. As you took Conner’s hand, you proudly faced your father and started to speak...
The end ?
