motherfucking vampires
Roy Harper. Mia Dearden. Connor Hawke.
Fangs. Exploding Broadheads. Shotguns.
1313 words.
(ao3.)
Speedy and Green Arrow (the better-looking one) were fighting the strangest horde they had ever laid eyes on. The creatures were seemingly human, yet their skin was paler than snow. When they opened their mouths they would shriek and hiss, exposing the sharp, protruding incisors on their top row of teeth.  
No one knew where they came from or what they wanted, all Speedy and Green Arrow knew was that Star City needed protecting.
The creatures ran through the streets faster than any normal human; their body movements reminiscent of animals yet they looked so similar to the civilians they hunted. Some scaled the buildings in an attempt to get inside. Others chased people — young and old — and after pinning them down moved their mouths to the flesh of the hunted in an attempt to feed. 
Fortunately, an aptly-timed arrow would zoom in and strike the creatures, distracting them long enough for the panicked civilians to rush to safety. 
But the efforts of the archers could only do so much. As good as Speedy and GA’s aim was, they were unnerved to discover that their broadheads — for some reason — couldn’t penetrate the skin of the creatures as well as expected. If anything, the sensation of a sharp arrow tip only tickled them. At least a well-aimed shot to the leg could slow them down, or a hit to the hand could prevent them from properly climbing buildings. 
It didn’t help that this just had to happen on the night Ollie and Dinah were on an off planet mission.
Needless to say, both Mia and Connor were relieved to get a call from Roy, who was fortunately in the city just as the chaos began. He asked the pair to meet at his house, as now more than ever they needed some kind of semblance of a plan. 
The trio converged in the basement of the Harper Household, which was locked with an iron door for good reason. The walls were adorned with weapons — they ranged from semiautomatic pistols to SMGs, from precision rifles to shotguns, from short swords to axes, from recurves bows to compound. 
Clearly, Arsenal enjoyed living up to his name. 
In the corner was a computer and sitting in front of it was the man of the house. Roy typed madly on the keyboard, both messaging other heroes about the situation and browsing live news feeds. 
The story was simple — strange pale humanoid creatures were running amok in Star City and attacking any civilians they could find. Citizens were encouraged to stay indoors, but some neighborhoods were being completely evacuated for safety. Civilians would be transferred to the Star City community center for the night, but the actual process of getting them to the buses posed a unique kind of danger.
While Connor took in Arsenal’s arsenal, Mia walked up to Roy and asked —
“Where’s Lian?” 
“Keystone,” he answered. “She should be safe with Wally and Linda.” 
Nodding her head, Mia patted Roy on the shoulder. “You made the right move.”
“I hope so,” he answered, his voice sounding just the slightest bit worried. “I don’t exactly have a contingency plan for ‘vampires attack the west coast.’”
Connor looked away from the various weapons and approached his siblings. “How do you know these guys are even vampires?” he asked, confused. 
Both Mia and Roy looked at him like he had grown a second head. 
“You kidding me!?” Mia exclaimed, aghast. “Pale as shit? Attacking at night? The freaking fangs? I mean, if you don’t wanna say the v-word, then that’s fine by me, but don’t give me funny looks if those guys start drinking your blood.” She began gesturing wildly, as if some theatrical hand tutting could help validate her points. “Why do you think they can’t get into buildings? Because they haven’t been invited in, duh!” 
There was a beat. Connor still looked skeptical, but gave Mia a slow nod nonetheless. He glanced back at Roy. 
“I assume you have a plan?”
Roy nodded and got out of his chair. 
“The authorities are gonna try to evacuate civilians from the Glades via bus at 11,” he explained, walking over to the section of his arsenal that consisted of arrow-filled quivers hanging on the walls. “It’ll take them an hour to round everyone up, but they may get out faster if we give ‘em cover.” 
“One problem,” Mia pointed out, trailing behind them. “Our broadheads aren’t piercing the vampires, it’s like their skin’s made of diamonds or something.” 
Unfazed, Roy grabbed one of the quivers and handed it over to her. 
“Exploding broadheads, Young Padawan,” he spoke without hesitation. “If anything, it’ll probably stun them.” 
There was a beat while Mia blinked. “You just have a whole quiver full of these things?”
Roy continued rummaging around. “It’s not the weirdest thing I have around here, trust me.”
Mia eyed her brother curiously, then looked to the quiver. She pulled out a single arrow and felt the weight in her hand. It was a tad heavier than her usual ammo, but she was confident she could fire it. On the business end was a rather large, bulbous broadhead made of metal. Despite the heft of the projectile, it didn’t feel too top-heavy.  
With a sigh (and no other viable plan in mind), Mia removed her quiver and slipped on the new one. 
Roy grabbed another quiver and held it out to Connor, who still looked unconvinced of everything.  
“That’s not exactly my style,” said the blond, unsure of his brother’s reasoning and rationale.
Roy wasted no time in putting the quiver back and reaching into Connor’s to pull out a single arrow. Unhesitatingly, he snapped the tip from the wooden shaft with his bare hands. From the holster on his belt he flicked open a folding knife and proceeded to quickly whittle the remaining wood into a sharp point. He then handed Connor the newly fashioned ‘stake-arrow’ and switchblade. 
“Aim for the heart,” Roy said, then walked away without another word. 
Minutes passed as the trio of siblings prepped for the mission. As Connor whittled and modded his arrows, Mia browsed Arsenal’s arsenal and snagged one of his bows, a compact, triangular compound with a mounted laser sight. She also grabbed one of his short swords, just in case. 
After strapping the blade to her belt, Mia looked over to Roy. 
To her surprise he was pulling off his quiver in favor of firearms. He loaded his trusty Glock 17 and placed it in a leg holster, then put on a vest and proceeded to fill the pouches with 12 gauge shotgun shells. Fittingly, the ammo boxes he was grabbing from were labeled “Slugs - EXPLODING” and “Dragon’s Breath — INCENDIARY.” 
Needless to say, if the apocalypse ever struck then Mia was either staying the fuck away from Roy or staying very close to him. 
“Not playing archer tonight?” asked Mia. 
Roy shook his head. “No, you and Connor cover from the rooftops, I’ll cover from the street.” 
With determination in his eyes, Roy grabbed his trusty Mossberg 590A1 and the included bayonet, attaching the blade to the bottom of the barrel to create the last resort between him and a vampire’s fangs. He then proceeded to load shells into the tube. The way he stood now — sporting tactical gear over his usual suit — seemed halfway between Arsenal and Special Agent Harper. Somehow, he still managed to maintain the same sense of authority, even without a quiver on his back and a bow in his hand. 
With both Connor and Mia armed and ready and the clock only minutes away from 11, there was nothing else for the trio of siblings to do but head out. 
“Alright!” Roy announced. He gave his shotgun a pump, an action that let a satisfying clunking noise resonate throughout the basement. “Let’s go get some motherfucking vampires!”

My own DC x Marvel headcanons cuz I don't see people doing it! (or AU??)
Ironman adopting smart or tech related kids, that's it that the headcanon
ironman thinks batman is a weird stoic emo dude until batman actually trolls him alot and it shocks him, and for that they would troll each other
ironman and batman: *debating which of their suit is the best* the black panther, who has the mix of both of their suits: 🧍
superman and captain america would respect each other and besties even
I think superman and the hulk will have a bond, they would be friends
tony stark would bully lex luthor alot
black widow and black canary would bond from their himbo archers
I think hawkeye and green arrow would some have rivalry or some sort of frenemies
blue beetle (jamie) and spiderman are besties because yes and I think firestorm too
the justice league and the avengers refers to each others as neighbors and they trust each others secret identity even
when the avengers found out shazam is a ten y/o child they all kinda freaked out
thor would be billy's mentor figure and he would stay at the avengers building most at the time
batman has the most team ups with the avengers
and I would like to think they would have a game competition of them
the justice league main colors is blue and purple and the avengers main colors and red and white
not really a headcanon but I see superman, batman and ironman as a trio cuz they both has "man" of their superhero name and back then I don't really know much of marvel I only thought dc and marvel are the same
well now I still see them as such cuz why not lmao
and decided to throw antman and spiderman too now they are group of five now
and I ain't changing it cuz it got stuck with me now

Random Weird Headcanons
I will casually watch and read a ton of comics and comic related shows as I unwind and have weird headcanons sometimes. Just needed to get a few of them out my head.
Jason Todd finding Superman, John Constantine, The Ray, random JL members sometimes to have Jennie-O turkey roast, Stove Top stuffing and a Pepperidge Farm cake because that was his holiday/birthday/celebration meal before his time living rough as a kid, even if it was from a soup kitchen sometimes, and he doesn't think the 'raised by Batman' crowd would do that and he worries he would insult Alfred if he asked when he wants this meal.
Clark making himself a cup of tea at the Watchtower and Bruce critiques everything from the type of tea to the brewing method, then decides to teach Clark how to make tea. (I am sure this exists, but I love the idea.)
Bruce and Oliver Queen ending up at the same event and trying to out himbo each other, knowing the other is not as stupid as they are acting, with the other trying to make them slip into Green Arrow or Batman behavior.
The Ray spending time with various superheroes and fanboying while learning flying without running into geese and powers and stuff and lecturing them and trying to have them help with support services for their cities (version I watched he was a social worker from Tulsa) So geeking out about meeting Batman and watching him use a grappling hook, then lectures about ACE scores and taking CPTSD seriously and listing off therapists, because he is done with hearing everyone's excuses about that shit, he doesn't care he is lecturing Batman, but he'll follow up in (work autopilot mode). There are probably Justice League members watching who will intervene with him if he is in danger.
So these are today's headcanons.

Werewolf Jason and Roy, I don't know why but they give me big dumb himbo werewolf energy even tho both are really smart
Also werewolf cuddles
So, most superheroes, at least in DC, tend to be much smarter than the average person - they have to be, to outsmart villains ans use their abilities to the fullest. However, I'd say Green Arrow and his group are... well, they're not stupid, but they haven't had the same level of mental training as the Batfam nor have the increased mental capacity for learning and memorization as Kryptonians, or even the scientific backing of Team Flash. So strictly speaking, Roy'd totally be a himbo.
I feel like Roy accidentally bit Jason, and then Jason just took charge of him both as a wolf and a human, keeping him in check both ways until they met their boyfriend.

if i was in charge of resetting the dcu :
my first film would be a Superman origin story titled smallville, where we deal with teen Clark( 14/15 yrfreshman)ft lana lang coming into his powers and wondering who he is and why he has these powers. The villain would be Mr. Mxyzptlk who is finding amusement from torturing teen Clark who is so confused. This is strictly a coming of age movie for Clark and family friendly. The end credit scene would be Clark getting his suit and going to stop a car chase that somehow made it to smallville. Post credits we see Alfred calling for bruce (13yrs)while brucey finds the cave filled with bats
Next film: Justice Society WW2
Characters: Doctor Fate(surprise character), hour-man, doctor mid nite, Wildcat, black canary,hawkman flash(jay garrick), Wonder Woman and Steve( he doesn’t die)
obv punching hitler is a scene, we get Easter eggs of wayne enterprises helping the war effort, creation of Argus by u.s gov in the end, the plot is basically getting the spear of destiny away from Hitler before he can change reality and take over the world; that’s basically the jist of it. Post credit: hawkman runs into shayera who hasn’t realized who she is yet, but when they make eye contact she sees a flash of a memory
Third film: Black Canary and Green Arrow
told threw the lens of Dinah(mostly centered around her), takes place when she’s in her 20’s, she trains with Ted grant( wildcat, who’s mantle has been passed down in the family), Dinah is seen busting drug and ppl trafficking, while she is kicking bad guy asses and arrow comes thru, enter Oliver who is newer than her in the hero business trying to help her, he assumes she’s a damsel in distress and immediately is like” toxic man?”, main villain: some mob/crime lord/cartel guy, she realizes that after spending some time with Oliver he’s a himbo…. They go out on a date, and she gets an anonymous text asking to meet. End credit we see brucie in a bat suit with trunks(he’s trying things out), asking her these things and then hands her a file with WW and asks if she know where she is(we see the file under it labeled; the Superman), before he leaves he’s like watch ur man and we will be in touch.
Ur more than welcome to add feedback, i was just super bored and was thinking of things that could possibly happen with the dceu reset but also have some similarity with the comics. Cause let’s be honest most ppl who watch these films at least want some sort of comic accuracy.James Gunn hire me lol

Oliver Queen, upon finding out that his roommate in boarding school was Batman, decided that the best thing to do while he was in Gotham for whatever fucking gala there is, was to “save” Bruce Wayne as the Green Arrow as Bruce Wayne was going to slip out of whatever gala to punch the shit out of Penguin as Batman. As a result, he was put on monitor duty for 2 weeks straight. And as a result of the bullshittery he pulled, Star City residents on social media think of Bruce Wayne as their new step-dad while Gothamites are begging the Bat to take back his himbo boyfriend.

Potential Sigriel Children
Bain and his partners have Brand. Legolas and Aragorn have Geralt. I’m heavily into considering having Tilda and Boromir adopt some kids
But what about our good ol bisexual ladies?
As always, I can’t draw, so visualize with me
Twins
We’ve got the older of the two, Juniper. He has his mum’s striking red hair, but his mama’s dark brown eyes, natural curls, and somewhat darker skin.
A boy with a lot of pep in his step, bright eyed, if not a bit naive. He takes things as they comes, and faces life with a smile and a cheer. He may seem dumb just from his exterior, but he’s surprisingly intelligent and insightful, very emotionally aware, and extremely good with people. Since he’s to be the future king of Dale, these are all very good skills to have.
Just like his mama, Juniper prefers blunt melee weapons, but he has an especially preference for flails. He thinks they’re fun and deadly at the same time.
Then we’ve got his eleven minutes younger sister, Ivy. Ivy takes more after their mama in terms of looks, with the same dark skin hue, the same black hair, and even the vitiligo. She does have her mum’s green eyes though.
A girl with intent behind her eyes. She's suave, a charmer, and knows how to get what she wants, even if it can be a bit backhanded. Since her brother was the one who was prepped to be king, girl had more free time on her hands, free time she spent on the streets, picking up skills that any person of her status probably shouldn't have, like pickpocketing and incredible stealth.
Ivy prefers ranged weapons, mainly because she's not that physically strong. While bow and arrow is something she's proficient is, she is much better and prefers the crossbow. If she'd ever be in a fight, she'd probably take a sniper position, finding somewhere high to fire down at her enemies.
The two twins do not understand each other in the slightest, as Ivy sees her brother as some dumb himbo while Juniper sees her as a needless rebel, but they do love each other, somewhat. That complicated sibling relationship dynamic seems to run in the family.
Sigrid would have a lot of struggles relating to her daughter since she's very strict by nature, but she'd try her hardest to be the best mom she can, as she always valued her relationship with her own mother and wants something similar with her daughter. Tauriel has an easier time with Ivy, but there's still like a pane of glass between them.
Juniper is easy tho. Gets along great with them both.
Also, Brand would be very good friends with Ivy while enjoying messing with Juniper, and Geralt would hate them both because he's Geralt

EPISODE HIGHLIGHT: FLOWER/SERPENT
EPISODE HIGHLIGHT: FLOWER/SERPENT Today we're highlighting our 8th episode of Season 1: "Flower/Serpent"    
it's a t4t high school retelling of macbeth where the characters are SO INSUFFERABLY sixteen years old

Image description below the cut
Slide 1: A lilac background. In black lettering, a title reads: "FLOWER/SERPENT." In the centre of the page, there is the cover art for this episode. It pictures Luca, an alternative nonbinary person with split dyed hair in black and green. Next to them, stands Matteo, a ginger trans man. He wears jeans and a white t-shirt with the sleeves ripped off. The cover art has arrows pointing away from it with text coming off them. The text coming off the arrows reads as the following: "1. Characters who are insufferably 16 2. Macbeth but it’s at euphoria highschool 3. Nonbinary lady macbeth 4. Himbo macbeth 5. Trans people being allowed to be rotten and horrible.” There is a dagger at the top of the page and a blood-stained notebook in the bottom left corner of the page.

The Girlboss and Malewife Hall of Fame
Welcome to the Girlboss and Malewife Hall of Fame. Here we celebrate strong, sexy, powerful, beautiful, intelligent women and their trophy husbands who make them laugh or smile.
Our first couple is none other than X-Men's own Rogue and Gambit. Probably one of the least complicated and dramatic X-Men couples with main OG characters (and that's saying a lot). Anna Marie Darkhölme-Lebeau, daughter of the villains Mystique and Destiny, Omega level Mutant, OG X-Men. And then we have her swamp rat trophy husband Remy Lebeau.
The next one is one of my personal favorites: Longdread and Ultrashield, BNHA OCs of @floof-ghostie. These two are the definition of the me and the bad bitch I pulled by being autistic meme. He had Autism, she had blue hair and pronouns, they were both Black. It was a match made in heaven.
Cliff and Maya from @calciumcryptid Naturalverse are a newly inducted couple but have proven themselves worthy. Cliff is a country boy himbo and Maya is his strong, powerful, beautiful, girlboss girlfriend. He made her laugh by giving her sunflowers instead of roses for Valentine's and she never emotionally recovered from it.
Other couples include InkStain and Splendor, Radiator and Queen Jewel, Reed and Sue Richards, Black Canary and Green Arrow, Percy and Annabeth, & Nightwing and Starfire.

For those that want to start Legends of Tomorrow but are overwhelmed by the lore a brief summary of the characters so you don’t have to watch Arrow or Flash
Legends of Tomorrow (summary of characters to get you caught up)
 I recommend you start with season two as season one especially they try too hard to fit into the dark and gritty style of the other Arrowverse shows like arrow and Flash, and don’t really become their fun selves until around season three. But for now I’ll just give a summary of the first season characters who have ties to the greater Arrowverse.
 The Legends of Tomorrow is a show about B (maybe C) list super heroes who have been recruited to a time traveling team to stop a supervillain from destroying the future. 
 You have Sarah Lance “AKA white canary” younger sister of Lorel Lance, she left on a boat trip with her sister’s boyfriend Oliver Queen. During a storm she was lost at sea and thought dead. This wasn’t the case as she eventually found herself rescued by “The League of Assassins” where she trained for five years. Before returning home to Star City where Oliver Queen had also returned adopting the persona of Vigilante Green Arrow (think batman with a bow and arrow). While helping Oliver fight crime she was killed and a year later brought back to life using the Lazarus Pit, her soul being restored by John Constantine.
 Leonard Snart and Mick Rory are two thieves who mostly steal things, but occasionally helped the hero of their city, the Flash (superfast guy dressed in red). Snart uses a gun that freezes things, Rory uses a gun that shoots fire. (Snart also has a sister that has a gun that turns things to gold, not important to Legends, but she was pretty cool character.) [Spoilers ahead for season one ahead: at the end of season one Snart sacrifices himself in order to save his team and destroy the Time Masters (think more evil Time Lords)]
 Ray Palmer “aka the Atom” (think Iron man if Tony stark was a himbo and instead of a super suit created the technology for antman) Palmer at some point takes over Oliver Queen’s company. Before this his fiancé was killed and wanting to never be helpless again he created his super suit and tried to help fight crime. Being a little too bumbly this proved more a problem to Arrow and his teammates than helpful.
 Firestorm is a super hero made up of two people (think When our powers combine) before the legends fire storm was made up of Martin Stein, a scientist who accidentally fused himself with a man named Ronnie Raymond so that the two inhabited one body for a time. After Ronnie died, Martin’s health started to deteriorate as the Firestorm genes in him required him to have someone to link with. Team Flash tracked down a compatible partner in a mechanic named Jefferson Jackson. Now combined Martin acts as the brains and Jefferson as the body as they produce flames from their body (think human torch.)
 Hawkman and Hawkgirl are the main story focus in the first season. They have a connection that started back in ancient Egypt where a run in with a sorcerer, Vandal Savage, gave them the ability to be reincarnated. Each incarnation Vandal hunts down and kills in order to gain stronger.
 Rip Hunter is a man from the distant futures who gathers this team together in order to stop Vandal Savage, who in his future has brought great destruction on the world. With him Rip brings a time ship with an AI named Gideon. The ship allows them to travel through time as they try to find ways to stop Vandal Savage before the future Rip witnessed comes to pass.
EDIT: for those with an aversion to “Holes” be careful of season 4 where the main villain sometimes appears in his demon form with a face that resembles a bee hive.

Why Stealing Is The Only Way To Save The DC Movie Universe
Now, I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but a lot of DC nerds are pissed. We live in a world where superhero movies are dominating, and DC nerds feel that their brand of choice should be one causing the death of cinema, not Marvel. As a result, many on the internet have been pitching their solutions to the problem. 
Some have said that DC should have planned their universe better and given each of the Justice League members their own film before their first crossover event. Because introducing more than one superhero in a story is too shocking, and inevitably results in brain hemorrhages. And we all know DC can’t afford to repeat another Wonder Woman 1984.
Others have posted their outlines for films DC should have done. Well the term outline is generous. In reality most of them consist of a Redditor picking a villain for each movie and writing post-credit scenes.
There are many that have gone as far to say that the only way to redeem the DC movie universe is by just rebooting it completely. Pretend that Wonder Woman, Man of Steel, Suicide Squad, the good Suicide Squad never happened and just start from scratch. So with all these conflicting opinions, what’s the right move? I think the answer is simple. Just steal Marvel’s directors.
Finding passionate directors can be tough, so why go through the effort when Marvel has already found people willing to sell out? Jon Favreau’s billionaire propaganda film Iron Man was so successful it launched a cinematic universe. So why not let him make a Green Arrow movie where the main character goes around cosplaying as Robin Hood while being a part of the 1%? Edgar Wright wanted to direct Ant-Man. Why not give him a call and promise him an Atom film, then replace him with Peyton Reed later due to creative differences? Heck, after Thor: Love and Thunder, Marvel is probably begging DC to take Taika Waititi off their hands. He can direct an Aquaman movie, or whatever hero he chooses to turn into a himbo.  
The brilliant part of this plan is that it has worked in the past. After failing to replicate the success of James Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy in Suicide Squad, DC knew the only thing to do was steal Gunn and have him make Suicide Squad Vol 2. And after Justice League, I’m sure we can all agree that bringing in the director of The Avengers to take over was a good move that no one questioned.
And you know what, why stop at plagiarizing the ideas of other superhero films? DC should be stealing from other movies in general. They have the director of two Planet of the Apes movies. Take him off The Batman and give him a Detective Chimp movie. DC should know by now that if people wanted originality, they wouldn’t be chasing after reboots and adaptations.

Name: Trois Nickname(s): Bookworm, Numbskull (only by Tre), Mini Giant Age: 14 Affiliation: Chain 2, Totem Race: Hylian, presumably
Trois is the tallest of the Totem and the last one to have been recruited to the team. His family has lived in Hytopia as long as he can remember, with his parents pushing him to become a scholar rather than a knight. Trois's role in the team was primarily supposed to be documentation, but it's gone far beyond that now.
He favors long-range weapons, like a Bow or occasionally Bombs. The Kokiri Clothes (not pictured here) is a must to have the extra arrows and for the shots to more often make their mark. Occasionally he'll swap over to the Lucky Loungewear if bows are reportedly not available.
While he usually acts very mature for his age - sometimes going so far as to being mistaken for an adult - he also enjoys puns and is a bit of a himbo. He's not street-smart, but he's decently book-smart. He's also very strong and consistently will literally carry his teammates to victory.
Trois is not a Hylian. He is a Sheikah. It's not information that his parents want him to have, and even though they encourage him to preserve history, it's a part they want to forget. There's enough bloodshed in their people's history already thanks to the crown. It's only a matter of time before he finds out and has to decide what to do with the information...
[designer's notes: the minish plush he's holding is from an archery game :) very much there to emphasize that he's still a kid and not an adult. you'd think living in a fashion-forward city/capital he'd have a better outfit but no. it green]
