[Here's my table of contents]
Chapter 5 - Gotham Slept
Her Bat had always kept his secrets close. He had always prided the perceived control he had over himself. He always planned. He always prepared. Eventually his mission drove a wedge between him and her bird. Her bird was fed up, she could feel his frustration, his captivity and so she let her bird fly outside of her loving embrace. Her tendrils had extended farther than the city limits. Learning from the land, observing, absorbing, twinning and reaching until she touched another city. Bludhaven, it was called. Silently it slept, dormant. She led her bird there, close enough to keep the tether taut but lose enough to feel free. Unsure if the city would ever wake. Unsure if she was the only one aware. Relieved that her bird was within her grasp. Time ticked by and her Bat met a boy, small, with cracks but he made her Bat laugh. He brought him to the Manor and she watched curiously. He knew her differently than they, intimately. He had crawled within her muck and clawed and fought his way up just to be able to breathe, to eat. He had only known warmth in brief lucid windows and knew of the pain brought by meaty fists. He had been witness to the horrors brought on by need and even participated in a few. He was a survivor of a different kind. The boy would learn to fly, she knew. Some things are certain and her connection to her Bat, the tether, compelled. Her shadows embraced him. The boy donned the colors of her bird, of Robin, and her Bat’s loneliness was assuage. The new bird was not as graceful nor did he ride the skies as if he belonged, but he made up for it by being quick and clever of her streets. She watched them dance, aware of not being the only one, but too focused to care. She wove around him, caressing his hair, unable to do much else for him but lighten the burden of protection from her Bat. She made it harder for the villains, to see, to hear. Everything else was a learned skill, taught by her Bat. The day she felt her Bat’s pain, it was all consuming. In a wooden casket lay a shattered bird, the cracks finally given way. Cold, stiff and without warmth he was placed within her soil. The Bat blamed himself, claimed that he should have been better, should have done things differently. Her Bat blamed her, claimed that she took and took and took. She cried relentlessly, screamed and lit the skies. He was wrong. Wrong. Wrong. She would give back. She always did. Lightning struck her soil, tearing a spark of shadow from her. It did not work. She had given her shadow to the other bird once before and she would do it again. She struck again and again until a connection was formed. A rope to bind him to her. She called the vermin that slunk in her sewers and they dug. The bird took a breath, nearly drowning himself, but he had clawed his way up before and so he did again. The bird came out wrong. Twisted and confused. The bird was stolen, taken from his nest. She was too weak to hold onto him and in her exhaustion, Gotham slept.
Let me know what you guys think! I wrote this instead of working on my other fic. I just can't seem to get that chapter right.....

In New Rome Pre-HoO:
Jason: Here, brought you something.
Nico, confused: A yogurt?
Jason, kindly: I wanted to make you feel more at home here.
Nico: Why would a yogurt make me feel at home?
Jason, tapping the lid: It’s Greek-style.

was listening to music while driving, as one does, when my brain, the silly little thing goes:
wouldn’t it be funny if dick grayson killed the joker (who stays dead because he deserves to be) for killing jason and goes through a whole breakdown over whether or not jason would approve of what he did, ultimately deciding that no, jason the happy robin would not be happy with his big brother, no matter how strained their relationship may have been before his death, killing a man out of revenge
cue jason as red hood, pre identify reveal, asking nightwing about what happened to the joker (because of course bruce had it covered up, because in his twisted little mind, a vigilante permanently taking out the mass murderer who is singlehandedly the number one cause of death in gotham would break the gothamites’ trust in them). nightwing admits, because since the joker is dead jason doesn’t have a reason to push the dramatics as much, he’s just fucking with the bats and keeping crime alley safe, and jason has his turn at a breakdown because he just found out someone actually avenged him
emotional reunion. everyone is happy. the end.

Reyna: being the manager of the group is like being a parent.
Reyna: and if you're wondering how it's like being the manager of the Argo 2, my kids got into a screaming match over the rules of the quite game.
Reyna: Percy broke Nico's heart so Nico is filing a divorce and marrying Jason instead, Percy got worked up and decided to take the kids, teaming up with Leo, they decided to throw away Nico's figurines and Jason's glasses. All in while Annabeth and Piper were having a food fight.

Thinking about Jason who has been pretending he's perfect, incredible, unstoppable, invincible for so long that he forgets the feelings of pain.
And then this time, when he just beat a monster or st, breathing hard but standing on numb legs and when the others are praising him as always, Nico - with his death sense, as usual - is the first one to grab him, yank hard at his jacket and freak out at his gaping wounds.
Bonus point if Nico's near crying whereas Jason's low-key deliriously grinning bc well. it feels nice to be cared for.

Does Cass even end up being in the family in the Jason-came-back-25-years-earlier au?
Of course she does you got to remember with this au that Jason travels back when he's dead so he only has knowledge of events up to when he dies so cass isn't effected at all by the changes she'll still be in Gotham when the earth quake happens and still join up with the bats

I was REALLY REALLY curious about some of the logistics of the whole adrenaline-fear-thing Bruce stuck in Jason, so I went down a rabbit hole of googling! From what I was seeing of other people's posts, it seems like general consensus is that there's a chip in Jason's head that's making the
disclaimer: I'm not a medical professional. I googled this and looked at articles and research papers but I definitely could have misunderstood things! talk to a doctor for better info!
As I listed in another post, adrenaline gets triggered in the body for multiple reasons, one of the most obvious being fear. Keep that in mind.
So, first off, when adrenaline hits your system, it does a ton of things: your sensitivity to pain decreases, your pupils get bigger, your vision gets better, your heart starts racing, your blood pressure increases, your hearing improves, your digestion slows down, the air passages in your lungs expand, your blood gets redistributed to your muscles, and your blood glucose levels increase.
(Your adrenal glands, of which the average person has two, are on the top of each kidney, btw. That's where they link up with the endocrine system.)
Short-term, these things can help you escape a situation your brain decides is dangerous. But if they go on for a long time, well... I think you can guess.
Generally, anxiety/fear -> panic attack -> hyperventilation, and if the hyperventilation goes on for too long it can increase the levels of oxygen in your blood to dangerous amounts. Most people would pass out before this got to the point that it could cause death, and because they're unconscious, the body has a chance to get breathing back to normal levels (though of course you'd most likely have negative side-effects after this).
Most importantly: Adrenaline is straight-up toxic in huge quantities. As in, it will kill you if there's a massive amount for a long time. I can't get a reliable source on how long this takes or exactly how much it takes to kill you, but there are cases of people dying during surgery when accidentally given massive amounts of epinephrine (adrenaline). And there are definitely reports of people straight up dying of fright (of note is that most of those people had varying conditions that weakened their hearts already). Basically, adrenaline ends up opening the heart to calcium, and if too much calcium builds up it impedes the heart's ability to work, thus damaging it, and eventually the whole system collapses. I couldn't find any real time estimates on how long the calcium build-up takes 🤷‍♀️
So you can imagine, if you decided to, say, make a little computer chip that forced your brain into feeling fear every time it sensed adrenaline hitting the system, then the obvious result you're going to get is... more adrenaline entering the system. Which then kicks off the next wave of fear! Is it worse than the first? Possibly! That fear kicks more adrenaline into overdrive, which means more fear which means more adrenaline, which means more fear which means more adrenaline which means more fear which means more adrenaline which means more fear which means more adrenaline which means more fear which means more adrenaline which means more fear which means more adrenaline which means more fear which means more adrenaline and so on and so forth!
And that is to say nothing of the fact that - if we work under the assumption that Bruce put a chip in Jason's brain to cause the fear response to adrenaline being released - it means HE PUT A CHIP IN JASON'S BRAIN. HE PERFORMED BRAIN SURGERY!!! THE MAN WHO DITCHED MEDICAL SCHOOL PERFORMED A BRAIN OPERATION!!! TO PUT SOMETHING INTO SOMEONE'S BRAIN!!!!
conclusion: realistically, jason would be dead by the end of the day. if we go by dc logic, he'll probably turn into a speedster (kidding! I'm kidding. though you could make a case of adrenaline = hysterical strength which means tons of adrenaline = superman strength. probably not going to happen.)
Thank you for listening to my tedtalk on why bruce wayne is a fucking moron (and dc writers don't give a shit about biology 🫣)

Idea that Danny found himself in an alternate dimension and so when he goes to find his alternate self because this is around the area Amity Park should be and his house, he gets the wrong black haired blue eyed child.
Yep, he thinks he’s deceased Jason Todd, instead of neighbor kid Tim Drake.
Danny wonders wherever it’s his fate to die before he is old enough to drive.

DC needs to pick one person to write Jason for like 5-10 uninterrupted years. Let someone actually make a character with him. Y’know. A consistent personality, consistent traits, an actual moral framework to work with. It’s gonna be divisive and people are gonna piss their pants if he isn’t a tragic softboy victim who does no wrong but whatever, grow up. Commit to something. He’s just not anything and never has been post-resurrection, despite having nothing but interesting potential. Let someone do something with him, and make it stick.

jason and leo spend hours and hours in bunker 9 forging armor for Nico, because he always complains about the camp-given armor not fitting him properly. annabeth and percy encourage kids to go talk to nico because he has really good insights, he just needs people to approach him first. will and hazel invade camp's kitchens to try and cook something from scratch after nico makes an offhanded comment about missing homecooked food. frank and reyna find a bow and spend an afternoon teaching nico how to use it on a particularly bad day, when he feels like he can't control his powers. piper and drew teach him how to actually find clothes in his size, and tell him all about the goth and punk movements while they dress him up in things he would never admit he feels comfortable wearing.

HELLO¡¡
Hello Tumblr community, I am writing for the first time on the page.
So... I introduce myself, I'm Moiras (username) I have some dyslexia, ADHD or Autism?? (actually the diagnosis is still not clear but it could be both)
So I guess it's painfully obvious what fandoms I'm involved in (discreetly look at books/fanfics percy jackson, harry potter, crimson rivers...)
I'm a novice artist and fanfic writer (I write for myself and my friends only), and my hyperfixation has increased lately so I freed myself from a writer's block and I'm on the opposite side... I want to write a lot
So I thought I'd share with you some drafts/ideas I'm writing because sometimes it's sad not to find fanfiction of some couples or very specific factics, so now I'm writing it...
And maybe ask for your help a little, if anyone really likes it, I could start publishing it, since I would really like to publish sometime on ao3 and I would need beta readers as well as people who know English/Spanish to be able to help me in the future, because It's not even close to being my first language...
And I am studying so that I can be the second, thank you very much and I hope to publish soon with all of you... .
P.S: I will put many hashtags to find the fandoms and couples that I am supporting

I would personally like to think Hera would be in favor of Jasico.
I have a very specific opinion about Hera with jasico. I think at first she hated, because in canon she actually despised nico a lot, and Jason was her golden boy. So I think she was pissed to find out Jason was in love with him and didn't understand why Jason wouldn't try to make it work with Piper (well, both of them didn't want that lmao). BUT when she realizes how happy Jason is with Nico, she just wants them to have the most ridiculously expensive wedding ceremony and in the future even give them as many kids as they want.
Also I believe Persephone was the first jasico shipper because of the underworld X son of Zeus thing, and then she got Hades to side with her eventually
