Seen so many eridians that are all so horrid. My contribution. Their name is sofa.
One of many things I appreciate about Star Trek is that it focuses on characters older than their teens and early 20s and shows that you can still experience love, friendship, character growth, and new adventures throughout your adult life. I was having a quarter life crisis about being in my mid 20s the other day and feeling like my youth was slipping away without me taking advantage, and then I remembered Dr. Julian S. Bashir was 27 when he showed up on Deep Space Nine and immediately identified himself as an annoying baby CMO who clumsily flirted with Dax in front of their new boss and accidentally gravely insulted Major Kira’s home within the first five minutes of his first real job out of med school

Too Shy to Comment on Fanfic? Don't know what to say? - Start commenting on fanfic a quick guide
Tips for comments for when you want to give an author love but don't know what to say.
1 emojis are your friend! hearts, blushing faces, happy faces, etc etc go nuts with the emojis
2 keep it simple - a quick "omg love this!" is amazing. You do not have to write an essay for the author to get the message
3 smut - if you are shy to comment on smut a simple "Hot *sweating emoji*" gets the point across ;)
4 Rereading - if it's a fic you come back to comment "re-reading this!" the author will know you came back because you loved it so much
5 character name + keyboard smash - this really can capture that feral emotion that sometimes overtakes us. If you don't know how to express it in words, incomprehensible screaming will do
6 dark fic - I have found a lot of the time people really don't know what to say when they read dark fic. I feel like sometimes people feel awkward saying "oh this was good I loved it" on things covering darker topics. So instead something along the lines of "this really made me think" or "very very interesting character study"
7 what happens next - instead of simply asking for the next chapter, trying leaving a quick prediction or worry about what you think might happen. "Omg no please don't die blorbo" or "I think blorbo is going to find a way to mess this up next chapter"
8 do not read other comments first - This isn't what to say so much as it's what not to do. One comment isn't better than the others, if someone left a thoughtful essay do not let that intimidate you away from keyboard smashing and emoji commenting, trust me the author will appreciate both. It's very much an "omg two cakes!" situation.
As an author I can say that any and all types of comments are very much appreciated and super motivating. You do not need to have the perfect comment, just say something <3
Happy commenting and say hi to your favorite authors for me!

Look what I've done! A new series called Folktails, pretty self explanatory; some folktails from Gotham city about various things

AND another chapter in my Demon Bats series, we meet Dick!
Okay but, what about Bruce Wayne aka Batman being actually a woman?
As in, she crafts the suit, gets the spooky voice modifier, goes out and gets hailed first a thing, then a man. Hence the title of Batman.
It’s unexpected but not unwelcome, as she leans into it, using it as another layer of her secret identity. She modifies the suits to fit in with the masculine build, makes the shoes have thicker soles, tinkers with it until she is unmistakably male while wearing it.
Her public persona doesn’t have to be overboard, as no one would suspect the pretty princess of Gotham to be BatMAN. So while she pretends to lean into the spoiled girl persona, she doesn’t have to rely on it.
And the other thing is, that as big of a feminist she is, she finds it strangely freeing to act as a man while in the suit. When she doesn’t convey fear, she earns respect and no one is underestimating her because of her gender.
When the Justice League forms, she keeps up the facade, not thinking that it is necessary to reveal her gender. She’s Batman and their teammate, what’s between her legs shouldn’t concern them.
If you want, you can lean into the SuperBat aspect of things, although I like the idea of keeping it platonic in this AU. But for the sake of it, here’s my take.
Clark is the first to know and while it shakes him, it makes no difference, because he loves Batman. Male, female, non-binary? Doesn’t matter, he’s here and he’s ready to fall to his knees before her.
There’s of course some hurt, that for years it was a secret between them. But as forgiving as Clark is, he wouldn’t hold a grudge against her. He’d be eager to get to know her better.
They wouldn’t get together instantly, but after the reveal, things would slowly move past the friendship level.
I could actually see, maybe Bruce initiating it, taking comfort and gaining confidence in Clark’s acceptance and the lack of change in how he treats her and Batman.
Same thing with BatCat. I don’t think that Selina would even blink at the news. She’d take it for what it is and just kiss Bruce senseless lol
I made a drawing of her.
Can't stop thinking about this so I decided I'll share
hey everyone knows that canonically jason did not ask bruce to kill the joker right? we all know that 'jason asks bruce to kill joker for him' is fanon right? we all know that jason said 'i am going to kill the joker, batman will have to kill me to stop me' right? we all understand that vengeance against the joker is something that jason is ready to do himself but he needs bruce 'a father's righteous vengeance is to kill his child's murderer' wayne to stand witness to his failure but not necessarily participate in breaking his one rule right? we all get that when talking about utrh and saying batman had to choose it's about action- killing jason or inaction- not saving joker right? we know batman killing joker wasn't a presented option even though he interpreted it that way right?
oh god sudden thought
so as per various DC social media concepts Clark has a Superman twitter where he posts left-leaning but fairly safe & tame stuff e.g. happy pride from Superman. Clark Kent also has his own twitter account where he posts his actual opinion.
what happens if uh. what happens if he forgets which account he's logged into.
scenario 1: what's clearly an official Superman post pops up on some rando journalist's twitter and is noticed before he can delete it. leads to controversy when people conclude that Superman has hired this Clark Kent person to do his social media. Clark now has to deal w the fact that everyone thinks he's Superman's social media manager. employers at the Daily Planet very confused as to why he didn't tell them about his side gig
scenario 2: world wakes up to Superman tweeting about how he hates the police
actually subtler but possibly funnier scenario:
Clark wouldn't actually be absent-minded enough to tweet on the wrong account but one evening sleepily goes through and likes a bunch of tweets and the next morning wakes up to everyone screenshotting Superman's liked tweets like HUH? HUH???
it's a mix of:
political stuff Superman would NOT normally say
tweets from Clark's daily planet co-workers who are now baffled as to why Superman was reading their tweets
perhaps most confounding, random bullshit Clark likes.
While I love this concept so so much the fact that Twitter knows Clark is superman because the accounts are linked and operated from the same device is a hilarious possibility. Alternatively Clark operates his personal Twitter with his work email from his phone, and his superman Twitter from his personal laptop using his personal email.
Lex Luther is basically DC's Elon musk but smarter and has bought Twitter for 44 billion dollars and is running it into the ground, and on principle Clark deactivated both his personal and superman accounts and migrated to Tumblr, where anonymity is much easier to achieve.
Tumblr staff knows Clark is superman but do not give a fuck and no one on Tumblr believes that @superman_official is actually superman they think it's a gimmick blog, but everyone follows it anyway because whoever is running it is incredibly based.

Billy, seeing what Superman just tweeted: oh cool we're allowed to say fuck the police now!!
Batman’s official Twitter account, after Jim and/or Dick do something that annoys him: #ACAB ✨
GCPD reading that tweet: *sweats*
Jim just sips his coffee and replies: ACAB
Is he a cop? Yes, but he’s still dealing with corruption bullshit decades into working there and weeding them out. Also, he’s self aware enough to admit he is kinda a bastard by multiple standards.
As does detective Montoya, as does Dick bc he’s “Man on the inside making a difference”-ing it, Jason outs himself as alive to say ACAB, it keeps dominoing until it’s clear literally everyone with Gotham as their location is saying ACAB.

Someone tweets if Bruce Wayne pays taxes, and Bruce accidentally replies with his Batman account with a simple "Yes", so people start to think that besides beating up villains, Batman also spends his time staring menacingly at billionaires while they fill their taxes to make sure there's no creative accounting going on
BruceWayneOfficial: yes, the rumors are true. Batman is my accountant.

Lex Luthor sitting at his desk on the phone to his tax guy, halfway through telling him to open a new shell company, and he just turns around and Supes is hovering outside his window, shaking his head in disapproval.
SupermanOfficial: The police are devoted to neither truth nor justice, nor do they keep the peace or protect the populace. They are, unfortunately, The American Way.
|
BigRedCaptainMan: oh hey we're allowed to say fuck the police?
BigRedCaptainMan: FUCK THE POLICE!
|
SupermanOfficial: No, absolutely not.
|
BigRedCaptainMan: you said it first
|
SupermanOfficial: One, phrasing matters even if we share the sentiment. Two, I'm allowed to use that word, even if I don't.
VVale: Anyone notice that Superman is acting like Captain Marvel isn't "allowed" to drop an F-bomb? What's that about?

Martian manhunter runs the most incomprehensible shitpost meme account. everyone thinks it’s a joke but it’s actually him, because he can read minds he’s always on the cutting edge of meme culture im talking ultra deep fried psychedelic simpsons memes
Since I know that this is important for some of you to know, I hereby pledge:
I will never use AI for writing fanfic. The creative process of brainstorming, writing, rereading and refining is why I do it at all. That's the fun part. Everything else is like balm on your wounded fingertips after you've written and stared at the same words for over 5 hours.
It would feel like selling my soul if I'd use AI. I'd sell the joy itself. What pray tell would I get in return? More balm? For what? I didn't even touch the pen.
Mx. king i drew you a tim from your f'n bats series is it okay if I post the pic??
