Gamer streamer duo! supersons AU
This idea is all crack. It's quite self indulgent and has been spinning in my mind for quite a while so i might as well poop it out on tumblr for @damijonuary. No age up shenanigans. No idea if i'd ever actually write a fanfic for this but who knows. Make it exist and then we roll with the flow.
First of all, they are still Robin and Superboy but they also stream/film silly gaming videos together as their civilian persona. They start off just watching Youtube videos together huddled in front of a screen. Then they get hit with the thought of "what if WE made videos together??!". They start making Youtube videos when they are around 14ish iād say? They donāt get much attention at the start. Iād say they only start getting popular when theyāre 17ish.
Jon has a webcam on while Damian is faceless and the viewers donāt know Damianās real name or anything. Damianās "no names on the field" becomes "no names while recording/streaming".
I feel like Jon would have his name in his usertag. Not full on JonKent, he is more original than that. I have two contenders:
-> @ Jonner, i think the joke of āJonner and Konathanā makes a great point for a username idea
-> @ JonaTron, EDIT: from @now-listen-here 's comment: Jon is a Transformers fan and the username is a tribute to Megatron
For Damian, Iām not entirely sure what his username would be. I think his gamertag could be a reference to Cheese Vikings (which means that his usertag is likely a stupid cheese pun like @ legend-dairy or smth, which is hilarious to me). Maybe he gets the name of a Cheese Viking's villain cause heās edgy like that? Also iām convinced that on multiplayer games, his account has a number tacked at the end of his username. Simply so he can increase the number everytime his account gets banned in game for trashtalking/BMāing people online ToT (he probably stagnates after the 4th or 5th account lol). For now, letās say chat calls Damian LegendDairy or just Dairy x)
feel free to suggest something! :]
Damian: takes video games too seriously
Jon: just here for a fun time :] (and the win)
Some of their most popular videos:
ā "Teaching my bestfriend how to play Minecraft, Minecraft Adventure #10", one of their earliest video. Where Jon taught Damian how Minecraft works. Damian got HOOKED onto minecraft and raked up an absurd playtime in a week.
Imagine the video ends with Damian in leather armor with a small wooden box house and the next video starts off with Damian in full diamond with a mansion.šš
Jon, in unenchanted iron armor: ⦠you did all that?? in two days??? what the hay dude.
Damian, throwing Jon a diamond pickaxe: Pick up, weāre going to the Nether.
ā "Playing Portal 2 with a genius is a nightmare": You know damn well there is a death counter on that one. They spend more time killing each other than solving the rooms.
ā "Playing 5D chess with a genius is a nightmare":
Damian: the next move you should do is so obvious
The chess board:
Jon, looking distressed at his screen: IT IS?!?!
ā "We got overcooked in Overcooked 2"
They don't have set roles ever but somehow they always get 5 stars.
They are the most chaotic efficient team youād ever see.
whenever they play any co-op game ever (like Moving out or overcooked) someone always comments on how they are the most disorganised chaotic somehow efficient duo ever.
The comms and coordinations is the most garbled ever but they somehow manage to do an insane job. Or like the comms are so specific to them that the viewers don't know what they are saying but they understood each other perfectly.
(Comment:
"Jon: *just said some gibberish*
Legendairy: *answers some time of ancient forgotten spell or smth*
Jon: *shakes his head* no that won't work
Them, as they bicker through the whole level: *proceeds to 5 star one of the hardest levels first try*
Bitch what?? HOW?!")
ā "Pokemon Black and White with my soulmate! soul link nuzlocke":
They play a Pokemon nuzlocke soul link (if you donāt know what that is: a nuzlocke is a harder version of Pokemon with a set of rules, one of them being if your pokemon gets KOed it actually dies and u cannot use it anymore. And a soul link is a 2 player nuzlocked in which every pokemon you catch is linked to your teammateās pokemon so ie if your pokemon dies, your friendās pokemon also dies.).
Damian made the mistake of renaming one pokemon Titus. Titus survived his fight.. His soul linked twin however....ā¦
U know damn well that Damian never let it down.
Damian does something wrong? "well at least i didn't kill Titus." "omg Damian i said i was sorry!! How was i supposed to know he would hit sheer cold?!"
ā "My best friend recommends a Dating sim?! (itās not a dating sim ToT) Doki doki literature club"
The thumbnail is Jonās face going š± and "he lied, itās not a cute game" written beside his face.
They have a video playlist where Damian recommends games to Jon, he mostly recommends horror game because he thinks itās funny how scared Jon gets. Damian would be the type of guy to recommend horror games to Jon and never tell him they are horror games.
Comment: "omg his horrified face when he finds Sayoriššš¤£š¤£ āDAMIAN WTF?!ā What a shreek š¤£š¤£"
=> Jon also trashtalks people however it doesnāt get picked up by the chat modules as he doesnāt swear. (example: "your life lacks whimsy and it shows.", "your mother would be disappointed in you", "my mother is a better shot than you, actually my GRANDMA is a better shot than you". If someoneās trashtalking him he ragebaits them with "wow what a great round guys. we are so equal in skill") so he rarely gets his game account banned contrary to Damian whoās swearing like there is no tomorrow (he can afford to create as many new accounts as he wish).
=> Even if the game isnāt multiplayer, Damian is on call with Jon as Jon plays through the game or vice versa.
=> Sometimes Damian just drops some insane information as if itās general knowledge.
Damian: Now thatās just unrealistic. The human body would not explode like that.
Chatter: Dairy, why do you know how a human body explodes??
Another chatter: is it the psychopathy or the ātism?
=> Jon would be the type of guy to have the worst setup you ever saw as in it's the weirdest DIWhy ever.
Imagine a Tweet:
@ Jonner: *posts a picture of his setup* setup reveal! please be nice ToT
@ Legendairy/Damian, replies: What the Fuck am i looking at.
Damian: Are my eyes deceiving me or is your microphone stand just a string attached to a cloth hanger wedged by your window handle.
Damian: Wait. I've never seen that before. I've been to your house and I for sure would have remembered seeing such an atrocity. Do you set it up each time???
Jon: well.. yes?
Damian: It's coming your way.
Jon: ???? what.
Jon: WHAT DOES THAT MEAN.
The next day:
Jon, with a picture of a box containing a mic stand: ah. message received š
Just to be a lil shit and piss damian off, Jon keeps using his string + cloth hanger for at least another month.
=> One of their first milestone videos was Jon and Damian playing SmashBros on the same console but Damian is out of camera view. You can just see Damianās arms as he tries to take away jonās controller/block his eyes to win the round. This event will be known as "Dairyās arm/hand reveal".
The first solo milestones video from Damian (no camera just voice) is for hitting 50k subs. The video is him going through their channelās discord/reddit and doing a Tier list of their subscribers's pets. One of the last category was "this isnāt a pet." which includes someoneās brother who is ranked lower than a Tamagotchi which is in the "this creature enthuses me" category.
On a livestream, Jon accidentally calls Damian by his name and goes "we can cut that out." followed by "ā¦. Jon. Weāre live." and chat explodes "Name reveal?! Omg NAME REVEAL!!!".
The first time they did a Fanart review stream as they were in the same room together, Damian got so offended when he saw his persona drawn as a white man. "Whoās God Damn white baby is that?!" "Thatās not Damian, thatās IAN š¤£š¤£"
=> Fans discover Damian can draw in a video/stream on Roblox or gartic Phone:
ā Jon: yāall didnāt know heās an artist?
Chat: "yāall didnāt know heās an artist?" WE DIDNāT KNOW HIS NAME FOR OVER 4 YEARS.
=> Obviously people are shipping them together, Jon discovers that while doing a Fanart review stream. The fanart had them in quite a compromised position. Jonās face turned RED red as he said "oh thatās some uuuh..nice shading" and it became a reaction pic.
Chat: āshadingā JON I THINK YOU MEAN HIS HALF NAKED BODY
Chat: Who sent THAT fanart in?!? There are so many much more tame cute ones omg why would you do thiiiiiis.
People in chat were also screaming about their ship tag on tumblr and ao3.
Jon, still red, gets curious and looks up the tag on ao3 and screeches at the ammount of fanfics he finds while he scrolls through them.
Jon, as his voice cracks: ..what are those tags⦠omg guys what have yāall been WRITING. *scared/panicked shout as he closes the ao3 window and covers his face cam* MY MOM IS WATCHING THIS STREAM! *arms flailing around* CUT! CUT EVERYTHING! Mom please forget the last 10 minutes. *stream ends*
At one point Jon releases a pride video where he comes out as Bi and the rpf shippers loose their minds. They relay the "oh thatās some uuuh..nice shading" pic with āI WAS THEREā, āfork found in kitchen momentā or āTHE WRITING WAS ON THE WALLā.
One stream, Jon forgot to tell his parents he was live-streaming so his mother enters his room and his chat goes absolutely hog wild at Lois Laneās appearance.
" Text to speech donation: āWho is that baddie? Is she single?ā
Jon, scoffs: STOP! THATāS MY MOTHER!! she is happily MARRIED with TWO BEAUTIFUL SONS, one of them is ME. Back off!!!
Text to speech donation: Is that a way to talk to your future step mother?
Damian: By Allah, you people are dogs. Jon your chat is never seeing any of my family."
Then the chat goes hogwild because "Dairy is gatekeeping his family from Jonās rabbid chat?? How handsome are his family members!?". A part of chat goes "meanie Dairy is depriving us of beautiful people."
The first charity live stream they did, they had "Lois lane interview" as a charity goal for 5k dollars raised. As soon as Jon revealed the 5k goal, they got there embarrassingly fast.
Jon: I can't believe that my viewers are such simps for my mother, it's not been 30min and we are already up 1k.
Chatter: We can also simp for your father too if u want.
Text to speech 100$ donation: BISEXUALS UNITE!! in this house we are down bad for Jon's Mom AND Dad!!!
and the chat descends into a chant of 'Bisexual unite!!!'
=> someone made a conspiracy reddit thread saying that Jon is Superboy but it gets clowned on and the account got deleted lightning fast. It has become a huge meme in the fan community. Which spawned in the tag #superJon which then got morphed into a crack ship with Jon and Superboy.
After they reveal Damian being THE Damian WAYNE, they post a video where they play MarioKart with both their families. It quickly becomes their most viewed video because of the sheer chaos it entails.
