Whew, we’ve been busy! Hot on the heels of list view for everyone, we’ve added four new Writing Insights for Ellipsus Plus!
Take a closer look at your docs with:
Repeated phrases: Find the multi-word phrases that recur throughout your draft. (For phrases containing up to six words.)
Dialogue balance: Calculate how much of your writing is dialogue vs. narration (and see the difference via the dialogue highlight toggle).
Point of view: See how many sentences are written from each perspective (and make extra-sure you didn’t accidentally switch halfway through!). First, second or third - you can highlight them all in your text.
Punctuation habits: See how often you use ✨expressive✨ punctuation marks per 1,000 words?!!!?!! (Yes!)
(And all without AI, of course!)
Get down ‘n’ dirty with your style (and the choices that make your voice yours, all yours). We wish you luck wrangling those phrases that jumpscare you when you discover you’ve used them 13 times in the same draft!

superbat medieval arranged marriage au where duke bruce wayne has been promised to king kal-el since kal was born. the proposal was created by zod after kal's mother died during childbirth, his father following soon after. although the waynes have power, they cannot deny the royal family outright, and before they can devise a plan to get their son out of the arrangement, they die.
zod sends kal away from the palace to live with some humble farmers the moment he's sure the infant will survive the journey. he rules the kingdom as he likes, while kal grows up hidden in a small village. when kal (who likes to go by clark, but can't with his royal title) becomes old enough, zod sends for him, eager to mould him into his interpretation of the perfect king just under a year before he is set to marry.
the time comes, and bruce goes into it absolutely abhorring king kal before they even meet. kal has had plenty of time to call off the marriage, to leave bruce to gotham, to his new son (dick), to the gutters of the dukedom the kingdom has failed to serve, the place bruce protects ruthlessly every single night.
he manages to be polite, if only because of alfred's many lessons in propriety during his boyhood. and also because the king possesses a physical power previously unheard of, and bruce won't risk dick's life by angering him. the wedding happens. bruce refuses to bring dick despite his begging, keeping him in gotham and far away from the palace.
bruce makes it clear he has no interest in consummating the marriage, and the king, curiously, seems horrified at the implication that he would do such a thing. bruce sleeps in the sitting room instead of in the bed with kal, who pretends he can't hear his new husband's fluttering heart and distressed noises from the nightmares he has each time he sleeps.
they manage to coexist without much trouble. kal finds that bruce is adept at running a kingdom, much more so than kal himself. zod doesn't seem to like bruce very much, but kal can't deny his intelligence, and advocates for his presence at every meeting.
slowly, very slowly, they start to get more comfortable with each other. kal finds himself looking forward to their shared meals and watching bruce spin his so-called advisors in circles. he orchestrates his writing sessions to coincide with bruce’s workouts, trying his hardest not to get distracted by his husband's powerful bulk or the flush of exertion on his skin. but he never acts on it. he promised bruce he wouldn't attempt anything.
when he can (when bruce travels to gotham to handle his dukedom), clark sneaks out as the superman to help the people of his kingdom. more than once, he runs into the gotham bat, a highly competent knight working towards the same goal as clark. the bat is stoic and curt, but clark observes his kindness in the way he offers starving children money and food. he watches the bat move like a shadow, silent and skilled. he notes that the bat never, ever goes far enough to kill anyone.
more than once, clark has to forcibly remind himself that he has a husband waiting for him at home. a husband that he likes. a lot. a husband that he really, really wants to do things with, but never can.
he's out with bruce in the wintertime, enjoying peace and quiet by a froken lake when they're ambushed. the assailants brandish a glowing stone that brings clark to his knees. he watches helplessly from the ground as bruce fights them off, his movements oddly familiar. but none of it matters when one of the bandits smashes the ice and bruce goes in. clark screams out his name, crawling to the edge and barely managing to grab his hand in time.
he pulls bruce out with shaking limbs, dragging them both over to the horses. the bandits have retreated, but the weakness the stone gave him hasn't. clark only just manages to get them both on one horse, and he rides hard for the kingdom gates.
the doctor says bruce is hypothermic. clark feels guiltier and guiltier with each moment that passes, where he gets stronger and bruce doesn't. he sends for bruce's family in gotham and climbs into bed with his husband for the first time.
"forgive me," he whispers, pulling bruce's unconcious form close and nuzzling the soft hair at his temple. his bare skin is cold against clark's. "i want you to get better. i need you to survive."
he wakes to someone bouncing on the bed, and opens his eyes to see bruce's ward snuggling against bruce's other side with a wide smile. clark follows his gaze to see bruce awake, his eyes alert. clark puts a hand on his chest to feel his heartbeat, stronger than it was before he slept.
"you're alright," he says with wonder. bruce nods, and clark remembers himself. "i can leave you with your family." he pulls away, but stalls when bruce shivers at the loss of contact.
"you can...stay," bruce says slowly. "if you like."
clark would like. and so he does.
things are much better after that. bruce trusts clark around his ward, and clark absolutely adores the boy, frequently showing him around the palace and taking him on small adventures. he and bruce start sleeping in the same bed, and clark can finally soothe bruce during his nightmares. zod seems more antsy than usual, but bruce is helping implement programs for sick and poor families, so clark focuses on the good.
and then clark gets betrayed by his father's best friend, and he finds himself in the city streets, fighting against his own men as superman, with batman at his side.
bruce knew the coup was coming, and had quietly relocated many families to gotham because he knew destruction would come soon. he fights at superman's side (who is obviously kal. who else would have eyes that blue or sense of goodness so engrained into them), and together they fight a gruelling battle. bruce sustains a few injuries through the victory, so he is quick to retreat after the fact and assess the damage.
in a secluded area away from any prying eyes, bruce yanks off the bloodied, cracked mess of his cowl and scrubs at his dirty face. superman follows, because of course he does.
"batman? are you here? i saw you get injured saving that child, and i came to see if you were all right—”
bruce freezes in the clearing, wide-eyed and nervous with no feasible way of escape.
kal mirrors his expression. “bruce…?”
bruce swallows, wets his lips. kal’s eyes follow the movement. “kal—” in less than a blink, kal has crossed the expanse of the clearing and cups the back of bruce’s head, tugging him close for a searing kiss.
before bruce can reciprocate, kal pulls back, an apology on his lips. “sorry—i’m sorry. you said you didn’t want this, m’sorry.”
but bruce snatches his red cloak in one strong fist and pulls him back, murmuring against his lips, “forget what i fucking said. you’ve been holding yourself back this entire time, haven’t you?”
Missing his ex
Imagine him crying as he's desperately trying to clean up the vandalism done on Harvey's poster. Like, just the image of Brucie Wayne crying in public for the first time while cleaning up a ruined poster like a desperate little thing despite knowing it won't be able to change reality.

fandoms would be a lot more peaceful if more people told themselves “okay but it’s fiction and it doesn’t affect me or anybody in real life in any way, shape or form, and I can just block, mute, scroll past it as I please” every time they saw something they didn’t like on the internet
I’m relatively new to AO3 (little over a year) and I had my first heartbreak: Crimson Supernova was taken down.
Thankfully, I did have a copy a saved but it’s missing the last chapter
I kind of miss the impulsivity that certain spaces used to allow. oh you want a hair cut today? hairdresser in the corner can fit you in before her 2 o’clock. tattoo of a cobra… sure leg or arm? even concerts, back when you could go to the box office thirty mins before any show. not saying these things don’t exist at all, but everything feels booked five months in advance and 10x more expensive
I just had this idea that Bruce dies thinking his children hate him and perished after their big fight. But, I'm not sure how I can start writing it. I don't know if I should pass this up as an Omega verse.
Anyways... Somehow, he finds himself turned back in time. But, instead of adopting all of them again.
He didn't.
He changed the course of their fate by calling Superman to save Richard and his parents. Hunting Sheila and getting the help she needs, thus preventing Jason from stealing his tires. Befriending Drake's and slowly steered their parenting skills (He didn't think he was a good parent either. Why would the kids hate him so much, if he did.) and swooping down to save them from their deaths. Letting Barbara and her father adopt Cassandra. And saving Duke's parents from Joker.
The only left was Damian. He infiltrates the LoA and takes him. He nearly gave him up but had a second thought and decided against it. He raised Damian as his only son.
But then, he found a mate (if this is an Omegaverse. This can be a Superbat as well. Dunno) have a child with the said mate and took this as a second chance to become a great parent.
But, the former Wayne kids someday opened their eyes and remembered their former life. Heartbroken, they saw how happy Bruce and Damian were with their new Family.
I don't know if I should let them reconcile? Or leave the angsty - angst.
Pps. I'm the one who wrote the hand movement and eye movement thingy. Thank you for being nice.
Anon baby you are breaking my heart why would I not be nice?
- i lowk want endgame brutalia but you said superbat, so
"He looks happy," Dick murmurs, closing his eyes and turning away. Jason puts a hand on his shoulder, leaning into the touch to take comfort from it himself. Catherine got shunted into rehab years ago, Willis got a job at Wayne Enterprises, and he grew up in a stable home. He doesn't have quite the same bulk as before, even if he took after Willis' large frame. Blue eyes water as he too turns away from the manor.
Tim plucks the binoculars from Dick's slack grip, and steps up next to Cass, peering through the gates to the manor.
Damian, only ten, and so much more a child than he was the first time around, howls with laughter between Bruce and Clark, standing on Bruce's shoulders to duel Clark as he walks upside down on the ceiling, their wooden swords coming together over and over. Smiles abound, and it makes a weight settle in the stomachs of their spectators.
Their spectators that three weeks ago, regained memories of the previous timeline, before Bruce was sent back, before it diverged, before their dad decided not to be their dad anymore.
"Why are we here?" Cass asks, turning her back on the manor. "He doesn't want us anymore."
Dick stands abruptly, and Haley's Circus' best aerialist clears the tall fence in one bound, and stalks off down the driveway.
None of them are vigilantes, in this life.
All of them find a way over that fence.
Dick pounds his fist on the door, and the laughter drifting out the open windows ceases. The lock clicks. The door creaks.
Clark Kent stands in the foyer of his home, and the smile drops from his face. In a flash, they're all back outside the gates, which he's easing closed behind them.
"Supes--"
"No, Timothy," Clark says. There is no familiarity in his voice. "Bruce tried so hard to keep you away from him in this life. Please. He-- He tried so hard to give you the lives you deserve, please don't tell me it failed."
"Three weeks ago," Jason explains tersely. "We got our memories from the last life. We're not sure why."
"CLARK!"
Clark flinches, and twitches in place. "Why are you here?"
"He's our father," Jason growls. Clark pinches his nose.
"But he's not. He made sure of that. And you guys-- you being here, he'll think he failed. He won't be able to cope with failing you all again."
"He didn't fail us the first time!" There is no love lost between this Dick Grayson, and this Superman. Uncle Supes is a ghost of a memory. "He is ours."
"He is my husband," Clark counters. "And he has spent his whole life devoted to you kids. Please don't make it in vain."
"CLARK!"
Closer.
Bruce is coming.
"PAPA!"
"Damian," Cass breathes.
Clark flinches again, but stays steadfast.
"Does he know about us?" Tim whispers, gazing towards the manor.
Clark nods. "Bruce... he couldn't keep you a secret. He didn't try. Damian has met you all, over time. He wanted to see what you were like."
"Please, Clark. He's our brother."
Clark wavers. "He never wanted this. He wanted...from afar. To be unknown."
"He's our father."
Clark strokes a hand over his face. "Not here! That was the whole point! You remember, right? So you remember cursing at him, and pushing him away, and telling him he wasn't your father! He listened, like you begged him to, and stopped. He did what you wanted, and now I am begging you." Clark swallows. "I am begging you kids. Please don't make him think that he failed you all over again."
"Clark!" Bruce yells again. More cautious, and Cass watches a glimpse of his silhouette through the trees, carefully advancing. "Honey?" A smaller figure stalks through the underbrush, approaching from the other side, and Dick can't take his eyes off it.
"Please."
This is their chance. If they race for the bend in the lane now, Bruce and Damian won't see them.
But...
Can they give this up?
Can they say goodbye to their old life for good?
While hesitantly, they do decide to leave before bruce sees them. They dont want to but what choice do they have? They're still figuring out what this all means in the first place.
While they are greatful for the lives they have, the family that they had lost.. they miss bruce.
They miss his over protective antics.
They miss his overbearing love.
They miss him.
But things ended so horribly. The never ending fights, the silent treatments, the rage. Most of the kids cant even remember what the arguments were about, nothing that really mattered it seems.
Part of them are angry at bruce, what he took from them. He took their friends, their skills and dreams, he took what directions their lives were going away. He took himself away from them.
But he gave them what they thought they wanted more than anything. And now they have it.. the kids still miss him terribly.
In the weeks that followed, they all discussed more deeply about what they remember and what they feel. Trying to learn from past mistakes.
The kids all recall feeling like a peice of themselves were missing during their life, someone who they could always turn to. Who would protect them. Turns out they were right.
But at least they have each other again, being able to reconnect in this new life is fascinating. While their family's are beyond confused, they're all happy this rag tag team has developed.
But bruce..
He knows somethings up.
You see, while he may not be directly in their lives anymore, he keeps a close eye on them all. He loves them more than life, they are still his children.
So when he notices that they've all randomly started meeting up and getting closer.. he can only come to one conclusion.
They know.
They know.
And they didn't come back to him.

Mala Gente de Juanes, pero es SuperBat y Clark se cansó de la falta de compromiso de Bruce
I think people don't really grasp at the undeniable fact of how deeply Clark is in love with Bruce, that their love,doomed or not, always commenced from the first sight. Superman had always been in awe of Batman and it's an irrefutable fact.
Clark has grown up on Earth, he has seen how the world works and how fickle grey and unstable humans are. He knows and sees the worst of humanity every day, seriously he sees it while he is Clark Kent the journalist and he sees it when he's Superman. He knows how little it takes sometimes for people to give in to the dark side and how hopeless all of it looks but then there is Bruce Wayne, the man who has suffered from fate worse than death. He lost his parents so young that having tangible memories of them would be a hard task, he grew up in a place which was surrounded by evil and blood hungry sharks, a world which was constantly luring him to give in and embrace the darkness, to think of no one else but himself and lose himself in the temporary pleasure of human flesh and wealth. He grew up in a world which is used to chew up vulnerable people and spit them back out broken and more fucked up than before. It would've been too easy for Bruce to choose that path, to not give a damn about anyone else but himself and resent the world for it's cruelty.
But despite all of it, despite all of the horrible unfathomable fate that was thrown upon Bruce, he still emerged as Gotham's hope, it's knight, it's prince and the only person brave enough to keep that city together. And it is an incomparable feat. Bruce looked at poverty,murder, injustice and death in the face and chose to sacrifice a life of luxury to give a chance of normalcy to the people of his city and the world.
Clark didn't think that being this selfless was ever possible, Bruce is someone who saw injustice and corruption since he was 8, he saw and got familiar with concepts no child should have to. His world was such that it always taught him that hope means nothing and that everything always slides on the plates of the ones who have pockets larger than they should be. Bruce saw all of it and decided to break the toxic cycle, and it is not easy, for the love of everything it is the hardest thing to do, to be the one who steps up and takes action and Clark admires him so much. There isn't a World where Clark Kent–Superman can come across Bruce Wayne–Batman and not fall in love immediately.
Bruce Wayne is the most selfless,pure and unreal man ever and Clark Kent is in love with him, he is head over heels for that guy, his love for Bruce is something that cannot be measured by scale, it's something so all encompassing, it feels like salvation, it feels like the hope after looking all around the world and seeing despair and death and Clark would give up his life for him.
His love for Bruce would never die, Bruce reciprocating his affection is not even in the equation,no, Clark never hoped for it once because Bruce's heart is so big and so dedicated to his cause and Clark is content to be Bruce's moth, his follower without ever getting acknowledged. But by some miracle his love is reciprocated and Clark vows to never put a dent on it and keep it safe and protect it with his life.

its probably a normal sign for the economy that all of my adulthood fantasies are like "imagine having your own kitchen living room and bathroom to decorate" "what if i could get on a train" "maybe one day i could purchase a sturdy pair of shoes" "i should save and invest in a single bicycle"
Damian: Out of respect for the Robin name, I have been researching the person who originated it: Mary Grayson (nee Lloyd). Bruce: Oh, find anything good? Damian: Were you aware she had a criminal record? Bruce: Yes. Tim: Of course. I have a copy of it at home. Jason: I mean I didn't. But I'm not surprised. Damian: Why not? Jason: Because I've met her son. I imagine Mary Grayson was involved in every anti-authoritarian protest she came across on her travels. What I would be more interested in is learning exactly what Janet Drake was up to to create Master Stalker over there.
