Bio!Dad Bruce Day 14-Gala (Part 1)

ummm hi? i just wanted to give yall a huge heads up that this IS part one of two, and part two will be added when i have time to go back and finish. both my computer and my phone are acting up, and my tablet has a faulty keyboard. that said, im going to work to get things back on track.

Two days after Christmas, the manor was buzzing with activity. The Kents had arrived the day before, and now everyone was prepping for the annual Winter Gala. Marinette was standing in her room, hands on her hips, glaring at her father as he tried to convince her that no, Marinette, the gala is not that big of a deal. down the hall, Tim and Damien helped Alfred sort through the myriad of suits and other formal wear that the siblings would be wearing the next night. Jason had left on ‘business’, while Dick was watching over the people brought into finish decorating for the occasion. Once the boys’ clothing had been sorted, Alfred moved on to check on Cass who had been studiously avoiding all activity related to the Gala.

In the Crewe Group Chat

Kim: Mari, when do you get back in town??

Chlo: M, there’s damage control to do, do you want me to wait for you?

Max: Marinette, you may want to check your Instagram. I know that you avoid social media in Gotham but…

Chlo: MARINETTE CHENG-WAYNE

Chlo: Pick up your phone

Chlo: MARI

Alix: Chloe, chill.

Alix: there’s only so much we can do if she’s busy today.

Kim: we need to take care of this somehow though.

Alix: do we have ANY OTHER WAY to contact m?

Adrien: why do I feel like I’m missing something very important?

Max: have you checked the news lately?

Adrien: I only really check AkumaWatch, why?

Max: check international news

Adrien: is… is this what I think it is? (Attached is a screenshot of international gossip. At the top of the page is a picture of two teens in hoodies moving away from an airport. They are dragging suitcases and have their heads down to avoid attention. The boy’s hood is thrown back, and his well-known blue eyes are glaring at the photographer. Above it is the title has Timothy Drake-Wayne finally found love? The second screenshot is from farther down the article where there is a picture of Cassandra Cain-Wayne, Damien Wayne and Marinette hurrying along a sidewalk completely bundled up. The caption reads could this be Tim Drake-Wayne’s mystery girl? Who is she?)

Chlo: YES

Chlo: and its gala day so she’s going to be busy af anyways.

Adrien: What do you mean its Gala day? There’s only one Gala today?

Chlo: Duh. Mari is going.

Chlo: Keep up, Adrikins.

Alix: oh god

Alix: does anyone know how her dress turned out? She had been freaking out about it last I heard, and we all know how much M puts by first impressions.

Adrien: Ok, I’m still really confused? There’s only one Gala today? The Wayne Winter Charity Gala, which is really exclusive and a huge to-do? What Gala is Marinette going to???

Nino: dude

Nino: please

Nino: don’t be oblivious.

Mari: what did I miss?

Chlo: DID YOU SEE THE NEWS?????

Mari: um…yes? Jason has been having a ball with all the press. Why?

Chlo: I thought you were trying to be low key?

Mari: tonight

Chlo: IM SORRY??? WHY AM I ONLY HEARING ABOUT THIS NOW????

Alix: well, it’s a good thing you have so many influential friends who keep ending up at the same Galas as you, Mari

Adrien: ok, I’m still confused

Chlo: your going to the Winter Gala, right?

Adrien: yeah? We go every year. The only entertaining part is the fact that the Wayne kids always fight. Otherwise it’s all snobby rich people.

Chlo: I’m taking offence to that, since Alix and I have also been going for years.

Alix: seconded

Mari: to be fair, you both tend to hide away and prank people

Adrien: wait. That was you two?

Adrien: And Marinette, how do you know that?

Mari: omg

Mari: I give up sdjkgb

Class Group Chat

Lila: guys! My friend reached out to me…

Alya: wait! Which friend? Is it…?

Lila: yes! Its Maralynn! She’s sooooo excited about her family Gala tonight!

Alix: Maralynn?

Lila: ok, you didn’t hear it from me, but that mystery girl? Seen at the airport with THE Tim Wayne? That’s her! They’re actually twins!

Chloe: oh! That means that Alix, Adrien and I will see her tonight! Its so cool that she trusts you not to reveal who she is…. (:

Marinette: lol isn’t Twitter convinced that she’s dating Tim? AWKWARD

Lila: Maralynn told me that it wasn’t worth it to go after the rumors. I’m trying to respect her decision.

Rose: that’s so sweet, Lila! I didn’t know that you knew the Waynes!

Lila: I don’t know ALL of them, just Maralynn! We were at boarding school together in Italy for a few years.

Marinette: OH WOW

Nino: Chloe, Alix, your going to have to tell us what you think of her?

Lila: oh yes! And if you see my boyfriend, send my love!

Chloe:…BOYFRIEND???

Lila: oh? You didn’t know? Tim and I have had a thing for a while

Marinette: oh really? Chloe, you’ll have to pass on that she’s thinking of him tonight!

Lila: I mean… not if you don’t want to! I wouldn’t want to be a bother on GALA night!

Chloe: if I see him, it won’t be a bother at all Lila!

Marinette shook her head and set her phone down as the class chat continued to blow up. As much as she loved Chloe, she knew that the girl was instigating Lila for fun. When everything blew up, Marinette wanted to be able to stand back and watch the fire burn, but not be close enough to get burned. When she turned in her room, the garment bag in the corner caught her eye. Inside, Marinette knew, was a long black dress. When she had run the design past Alfred, the English man had given her an approving nod. Later, she had heard him mentioning to her father that at least one of his myriad of children would be able to dress themselves. The comment had made the teen giggle and she had made sure to put every effort she could into the gown. More than anything, she wanted to make her family proud. A knock on the door drew her attention and she turned to find Cass standing there, her own gown held in its own garment bag.

“get ready? Together?” the noirette lit up at her older sister’s suggestion and she nodded excitedly. The other girl moved into the room and hung the bag in her arms over the wardrobe next to Marinette’s. after she had deposited her shoes, the older teen turned to her sister and smiled.

By the time that Tim came to check on them, both girls had finished their Makeup and were working on hair. The makeup artist that Bruce had hired was packing up her stuff and the hair stylist was partway through Cass’s hair. Marinette turned towards her brother with a smile from where she was standing in front of the hidden dresses. “lend me a hand?” He smirked at the frustration on her face.

“Gladly, Little Bit. Which one is yours?” when the girl nodded to the larger of the two bags, Tim frowned. “how big exactly is your dress?”

“Big enough for me to need help getting it on. Its not that it’s exactly heavy either! Its just…poofy?” he laughed at Marinette’s rush to explain and helped her pull the bag off of the dress. When the dress was no longer hidden, his breath caught. The black dress was stunning. He could see where it moved from black to grey to blue at the bottom, and the long full sleeves followed the same style. Hanging on the hanger behind the dress was a black hoop, and a pair of low heels (as tall as Bruce would allow, actually. He had to remind her ten times that although this was a high society event, she was still 14, and didn’t need to be dressing like she was 20.) sat under the layers of the dress. Where he had been expecting glitter and sparkles, Tim was surprised to find that the satin was free of almost anything that glittered.

“wow” Marinette laughed at his reaction and reached for the hoop.

“I know, right? It took forever, but its totally worth it! And, it’s the designers first attempt at this kind of formal. I think she did a great job.” Tim paused at that.

“LB, hey,” his sister tensed at the abbreviation for her nickname before she turned to him. “who exactly designed your dress?”

“Oh, just a small up and coming designer. You wouldn’t have heard of her.” Cass sniggered from her spot by the vanity and Marinette shot their sister a smile. “ok! Let me get the slip on, and then after the hoop is on top, ill need your help with making sure the skirt fits right.”

Marinette would not be over exaggerating if she said that the red carpet was incredibly chaotic. The only thing she could think of that was more chaotic was perhaps the last time Jagged had held a concert in Paris. After she had made it through the gaggle of reporters and the public (was that Mr. Kent, SUPERMAN, she saw standing in the crowd calling out questions? Dam that man was everywhere.) the teen dropped her purse, that held an extra set of shoes, in her seat. The rest of the family wouldn’t be in for a bit. Her father, Dick, and Damien would all be in the receiving line Alfred would be behind the scenes all night, and Tim was already striking up discussions with business partners. Cass was on the other side of the room, looking stunning in her deep blue dress. When her sister had approached her, through her website, about the dress the teen had squealed at the idea of designing the close-fitting dress for her only sister. A Blonde caught her eye and pulled the noirette out of her thoughts. The familiar girl who was making her way over had abandoned her trademarked blues and yellows in favor of a deep red that matched the garnets littering her jewelry. A few steps behind her was another teen close to Marinette’s age with a pink pixie cut slicked down. The other teen was wearing a suit that had perfect tailoring…actually, that was Marinette’s suit. The girl laughed as Chloe and Alix joined her, the shortest of the three standing in the middle to draw attention to her suit.

As the girls caught up, they scanned the ballroom. On the other side, Tim was starting to look frazzled, while Marinette thought she saw Jason slip in past one of the servers. opposite them, Damien and Dick were starting to mingle while Bruce moved to greet the Kents. As she swept her gaze over the room, Marinette blinked. There, looking straight at her was-

“oh no, its Adrien. Chloe I love you and all, but if that boy causes a scene tonight…” Chloe waved away Alix’s worries.

“I already told him to be on his best behavior. I am personally more interested in when Felix will get here. For all his big talk about transferring to a private school in Paris, I won’t believe it until the brat comes to see me.” The group stifled their laughter at Chloe’s put out response.

“as long as he doesn’t come over asking about everything going on, we should be good.” Marinette nodded at Alix’s statement on Adrien.

Look for Part 2 soon! if yall have any thoughts, i’d LOVE to hear them, since i have the basic plot down and im fleshing it out now...

The little moments Part 1

No warnings, Serenity ‘Ren’ x John Seed. This takes place outside of Hope County but with in the cult time period pre Joseph attempted arrest. Two parter first one is smuttless, part two will be smuttfull I promise!

Ren sat at the bar drinking her water quietly, she got the feeling she was better off, new job, new town, new beginning. She didn’t understand why he was so upset, he knew she was going in for the interview. He knew if she passed the interview she would get hired and get a posting somewhere. She motioned to the bartender. “Whiskey neat please.” There was all kinds of business men and couples around, the bar and restaurant was a high end kind of place. Of all the places to plan a breakup why here? Why not a coffee shop. Probably so she could have a drink after, he knew her well enough for that she thought.

“If you ask me, he was a bit of a dick.” The bartender winked at her as he put her whiskey down. “You nailed the interview and got the job! You did good be proud! Celebrate without him, celebrate because you got a new start! Dont look back honey.” The bartender has been nice and patient with her, most bartenders wont let someone sip water for a few hours at the bar. Or listen to someone ramble who hasn’t even paid for a drink yet. He gave her a big smile and hand squeeze before going to help another customer.

Ren downed half her drink in one gulp and sat there thinking. She was better off without him, fuck him. “Drinking your troubles, or are your troubles drinking you?” Ren jumped slightly startled. “Sorry didn’t mean to scare you, im John.” He flashed a smile.

“Um both, and im Serenity or Ren as some people call me, sorry just wasn’t expecting anyone to talk to me.” She flashed a quick smile back.

He leaned against the bar holding her gaze, Ren got ths impresion he was reading her. “Well Serenity, if its both might i offer you a distraction? I have an art gallery to visit it belongs to an old friend of mine, would you like to join me? That is unless your waiting for someone?”

Ren couldn’t help but like him a little bit. “No im not waiting for anyone, they came and left.” She took a moment to study him, he was very well dressed and very good looking. His eyes drew her in the most with their blue gaze and his soft smile, she finished her drink and nodded. “Alright art gallery sounds like its more fun than staying here.”John smiled and held out his arm to her and she slipped her arm through his and followed him to his town car to head out.

The art gallery was paintings only, but a large variety in styles. “So, did you only go to the bar to find a date? Or where you already at the bar and see an opportunity, sorry just kinda curious?” Ren asked after a few moments of wandering around the gallery.

“I was already at the bar.” He flashed a smile that just hooked her. “I was originally intending on coming alone. For some reason you caught my eye, thought i might take the chance. After all im only in town for a few days on business and you never know what treasure one might find.” His voice was silky.

Ren couldn’t help but smile at him. “I like you, your smooth.” He chuckled softly and gave her a wink. “Good looks smooth personality quite the charmer arnt you John, careful you might make me swoon for you.”

“Only when i want to be.” His smile was mischievous and his eyes seemed to match. “You have a beautiful smile. I was dreading my trip out here with all the business i had to do, but it was nice to have the opportunity to really relax and spend time with someone. Simply enjoy the moment and not planning the next, dont you think?”

“Your right, it is nice to be in the moment. Especially here, this art is amazing. A lot amazing pieces and talent.” Ren glanced around the gallery at all the paintings taking it in.

John kept his eyes on her. “You love art?” His voice was soft and intrigued.

“I love talent, and dedication to a task. All this paintings took hours, of brush stroke after stroke. Time and dedication to a task it’s admirable, I barley can wait for the coffee to pour. So its nice to see not just one project of dedication but many come to a beautiful finish.”

His eyes where still fixed on her taking in every little thing, he certainly seemed intrigued by her. “Dedication to a task is certainly an admirable trait.”

Ren locked eyes with him and gave him a smile. “What about you John, do you love art? Or just coming to support a friend?”

The corner of his lips twitched into a smile for a moment. “I appreciate the talent and dedication as well. But it helps to have someone to appreciate it with, lifes no fun with out someone to share beautiful moments with. Even if it is with someone you just met for one evening, moments are better shared.”

“They are, thank you John. I was having a really shitty day, but you really helped me make the best of it. I appreciate that.” She gave his hand a little squeeze. “A gentleman to my rescue.”

He let out a laugh. “A gentleman eh? Well then, how about we go out for dinner hm? After we finish here. Im certainly enjoying our time together, if you would like to join me that is?” He returned the gentle squeeze.

“What where you thinking?” She was intrigued on what he might have planned.

Gently he lifted her chin up and gave her a small kiss. “What ever you want, the lovely lady should always choose.”

Ren smiled. “Well if thats the case, I know a great burger place not far from here.”

John chuckled and nodded. “A burger place?” He had a crooked smile but his eyes seemed sceptical. “Alright. Sounds great.”

“A damn great burger place, all the fancy restaurants couldn’t make a burger and fries as good as this place. As much as its great to enjoy the finer things, its the little things that build up to the great moments.” Ren looked over at a painting of a waterfall and motioned to it. “Take paintings for example. They are beautiful but they are built up of tiny things, little moments. Layer upon layer to make this incredible scenery, its the little brush strokes that make the bigger picture. You have to appreciate the little things as well.”

The scepticism left his eyes. “Very well put. Im certainly enjoying our little moments.” He pulled her closer gently and ran his fingers through her hair pulling her into a kiss. She leaned into him deepening the kiss as he twirled her hair around his fingers. As he pulled away he gave her a small kiss on the forehead. “How about we go for those burgers now?”

Alright thats it for part 1. I really wanted to play on Johns lonely side and certainly had fun doing it. Cant wait for part two!
