Every Universe
So I had this cute DC prompt that I'm not going to write considering I'm not good enough at writing to confidently post it, so here you go. I imagined this with Dick, but you can write this with any character you see fit, it doesn't even need to be a DC character Imagine Dick gets sucked into an alternate universe out of nowhere, the only thing he knows about his situation is that he needs to find her
He soon meets the alternate version of himself who was adopted by an average family instead of Bruce and is taken back to the alternates house, where he meets a woman, alternate Dick's wife, whose beauty puts the heavens themselves to shame. He learns her name listens to their story and learns that they met when he was 15. He barely stays in that universe for an hour.
Soon Dick finds himself in another universe where he meets a version of himself whose parents never died. He gets taken to the circus and meets his trapeze partner, the woman from the previous universe, who is once more married to the alternate version of himself. Again he learns their story, and again he learns what age they met, 17.
Universe after universe he travels, meeting himself and that universe's version of his wife. Universe after universe he learns their stories and notices a pattern. They all met in similar yet widely different ways (you get to choose) and they all met between the ages of 13 and 19, but never before and never after. Dick is currently 23.
Dick is jealous. They look so happy and so in love, no matter what situation they are in. Hell, he even meets a version of them that hops between homeless shelters because of financial difficulties, but still, they are happier than he is with his life where he can have everything he wants. He has seen them have children, pets, and even their own businesses, and he. is. jealous.
Then Dick appears in a graveyard where he sees himself kneeling by a gravestone, tears in his eyes as the man who seems only slightly older than himself mourns. They end up talking and Dick learns that he of this universe lost his wife barely a year ago and that he comes to lay her favorite flowers on her grave every day, a tradition he had kept going from when they first started dating. They talk and talk and Dick stays there longer than he has ever stayed in a single universe.
In the end, when Dick finally leaves, he has realized a few things, one of those things being that his universe is the one where he never meets his wife, and yet in the back of his mind he still hears the voice chanting for him to find her
In the next universe, he lands at the feet of the version of his wife who has never met him, and suddenly the voice quiets, knowing that he has found his version of her.
Even in the universes where the other doesn't exist, they still manage to find each other

this prompt was inspired by the EPIC musical "Would You Fall in Love with Me Again" Sorry for the horrible format, I am sleep-deprived and honestly do not have many cares to give, I just wanted to put this out there
