Is the great Gotham sewer race still a planned fic or a simple joke post from a couple years back?

I still like the concept - but with the way the last chapter of Bruce Wayne's Headache Classification system is wrapping up, I don't think that it can be the sequel fic I initially wanted. I'm still not entirely sold on what should be the plot for the sequel fic. The whole endeavor kinds feels too big to come at in some ways.

Headache Classification system ends with no one on Damian's side when it comes to the Marinette issue. So, with that in mind, I'm open to ideas as to what could be in a sequel fic.

Damian: Tt. Dupain-Cheng, did you know this is a fruit tart and not a liquid? I am going to have to add strawberry juice.

Marinette: Well, duh! But you did it first, and I didn't even know you liked strawberries that much.

Damian: I have a nostalgic association with strawberries. This is the cake I received from Alfred when I turned thirteen. It is not usually my palate, but Alfred's gestures mean a great deal.

Marinette: Oh, that’s so sweet, Damian.

Damian: Tt. We have to drink this now. Enough dawdling, Dupain-Cheng.

Damian: “Stay. The assignments can wait.”

Marinette: “Deadline, Damian. Since when did you become a koala?”

Damian: “I am not a marsupial. I am neutralizing the threat of your overwork.”

Marinette: “A strategic hug? Really?”

Damian: “It represents efficient temperature regulation, considering you are a sufficient heat source.”

Marinette: “Liar. You just like the hugs.”

Damian: “Hmph. It is scientifically factual that physical contact releases a significant dopamine surge, especially when one is... depleted. And you, Dupain-Cheng, are an objectively superior candidate for such regulation. I mean it.”

Jason and Dick, eavesdropping from one room over: so when's the wedding?

[haybellewrites]

you ever read one of your old fics and think "damn past self. you went hard on that one. i'm so proud of you." while simultaneously thinking "future self got to get their shit together and actually write something, i mean come on now."

Before Damian could complete his “Happy --”, Marinette leaned in. Their lips touched, and as she tenderly held his face, they both savored the promise of a new year.

Daminette Fic Recs!!

Take out your earbuds, woman! by Am_I_really_a_writerhuh

The two stories in this series: 'Take out your earbuds- I swear-' and 'Breaking the News' are fantastic!! Just the right balance of humor and cuteness.

Damian is so awkward in his attempt to make a friend, especially one who does not seem like she wants to be friends. Meanwhile, Marinette is just hoping that she hasn't majorly screwed up a whole new school, on a whole new continent. It's just her luck that it is always stupid, rich people she ends up running into.

Absolutely give it a read if you haven't (or if you have, give it another read, it's soooo good). And let me know if the author is here on Tumblr so I can tag them.

i don’t think love at first sight exists but i think you feel something. not just romantically, but when you meet anyone who’s going to be important to you…anything stronger than what you were feeling before, without even knowing it. attraction, dislike, whatever. something you might forget the next day but in that moment it’s something. like a little jolt in ur chest idk.

[kiss2012]

this is what i meant

[jessebloom]

some crazy good fanfic in my google docs. whatever guy started writing it i hope he finishes it

[batsandbugs]

Daminette Fic Recs!

because I knew you by coveylace

Absolute gem of a fic!! Just the perfect balance of MLB and DC. Damian finally puts up the mask and cape and heads off to college to be a doctor, and on the way, falls in love with Marinette. 10k words of pure perfection. Give it a read, and if anyone knows if the author is on tumblr lmk so I can tag them.

Maribat March 2026

Get ready for everybody's favorite month of the year: Maribat March! This year, we've decided to give you a little more time to answer the prompts breaking the calendar down by weeks, instead of days. We're super excited for this event's return, and we hope you are too!

If you’re publishing on Ao3, we have an Ao3 collection, just like last year. To be added to it, make sure to select “Maribat March (Maribat_March)” when you select the collection you want to add your fic to. For the ease of readers, make sure to include “For Maribat March Week #: [Prompt]” in your summary.

If you’re posting something NSFW, make sure that it’s rated as such, and has all of the relevant tags and warnings. If it doesn’t your work won’t be approved to the collection.

Prompt List

Week One: "What if I don't want to be a Magical Girl?"

Week Two: "This place is depressing."

Week Three: "Can I get an interview?"

Week Four: "I hate clowns."

Week Five: "Sounds like a wild ride."

Shout out to Mod @newdog14 for designing this year's calendar, and to @izanae for assisting with prompts. There are also special brownie points available to anyone who spots the hidden references Newsie slipped into this post!

“We just wanna chaperone 😇”

Damian finally convinces Marinette to go on a proper date.

It’s just dinner. Simple. Classy. Romantic.

OR SO THEY THOUGHT.

Jason: at the bar in a fake mustache

Dick: posing as a waiter named "Ricardo"

Tim: hiding in the ficus with night vision goggles

Cass: under the table

Bruce: in the van with Alfred, running comms

Marinette: chewing slowly “...You invited your entire family, didn’t you?”

Damian: glaring at the ficus “I did not.”

Tim: whispering into comms “She spotted me. Abort. ABORT—"

A bug has been spotted in Gotham ♡

While I’m not that far into writing my fic, that won’t stop the mass production of art for it. My shrimp back it screaming at me 🦐

[sgtscuttle]

Marinette didn’t forget, she’s actually just kinda embarrassed about it. How is she supposed to casually mention a sculpture that was made by someone who was in love with her resides outside her front door?

Damian is just endlessly amazed by the details of her life.

Annnyywhoooo, my first daminette fanart easily became my most popular post in just a week… didn’t realize there was so many of us! All the notes are encouraging me to make more so I wanted to thank you all so much, I’ll definitely make more :)))

Tim cameo bc he’s my fav weirdo

Extra-

Damian: Since w h e n?

Tim: Uhhh, early Hawkmoth days. Kinda unfair, we’ve been around for decades and don’t have anything like that.

Steph (on call): Tim, the Wayne name is on half the buildings in the city. Fund your own and plant it outside Wayne Tower if it’ll make you feel better.

arranged marriage Daminette . . . but make it more realistic and angsty

you know how in arranged marriage tropes with Daminette it's basically love at first sight with each other?

we're serving none of that

the two just forced into a marriage bond while going through Shit™️

like maybe Damian was in love with someone else like Raven or Jon but it was unresolved and unrequited

or Marinette had just gotten out of a breakup or is too busy with Guardian duties to ever commit to a romantic relationship

first impressions could've gotten better because again,,, they were strangers, forced to meet with each other regularly or some sht or else the magical bond hurts them

they keep it a secret from others ofc

and maybe they know each other's identity. and hate each other more because of it

she doesnt like him bc he's Robin, and part of the justice league that ignored paris in the past or were trying to get into the city at the risk of being akumatized

and he knows she's the guardian but doesnt like that she's too 'incompetent' against hawkmoth, and hasn't figured his identity after so long

but each other's company is inescapable and with the power of forced proximity they understand each other more. it's slow, but there's progress

oh! and lets say one of them gets hurt and the other basically has a realization that the idea of losing them doesnt. feel. good.

strangers to reluctant spouses to sort-of friends to friends who somehow found comfort in each other to lovers

[batsandbugs]

yesssss, give me slowburn daminette. Give me pain and angst as they have to work to even tolerate one another. How they would not be together, if circumstances were different. Because it makes it all the sweeter when they do fall for each other eventually. That they wouldn't end up trading their bond for the world. Have their love be earned instead of just at first sight.
