figured I should make one of these so y’all can find my stuff easier, huh?
hi, I’m Dee, I’m 23 and I’m a writer and artist. Use any pronouns you want so long as they got vibes. My AuDHD ass is currently deep in the DC fandom, specifically the Batfam and Birdflash variety. If you wanna check out my fics visit my AO3 here
if you like my stuff, wanna chat, wanna ramble, or have any questions, my asks are always open! My comments are too, if AO3 is more your jam. If you have any Batfam fics you wanna rec or plug please do; I’m running outta things to read lmao. Find my fics linked below the cut - they’re mostly DC, but I have some for The Owl House and Rise of the TMNT too. Check ‘em out if that’s your thing
have a wonderful day, folks!
Thought I’d link my fics here for ease of access for you guys! I’ll only link complete fics or fics I’m actively updating. Check out my AO3 for others
DC/Batfam
we stopped kissing the tar on the highway (I’d like it if you stayed) - 83k; complete. My most recently completed longfic, with an ongoing series of additional oneshots you can find here. Dick is kicked out at sixteen. He, Jason and Wally try to build a new life for themselves. Feat. Dick as Jay’s sorta-dad, Jason as the cutest kid in existence, and Wally as the cooler dad (even though he won’t admit he’s a dad because he’s only twenty-three, Dick, that’s way too young -)
the warmth’s returning - 240k so far; in progress series. Ongoing series of oneshots and multichapter fics set in the same ‘verse, and currently updating every other Friday. Talon AU with lots of sweet Birdflash, good dad!Bruce, and plenty of angst and fluff. Hurt/comfort is the name of the game here folks ;D
the act of creation - 60k of about 100k total; in progress two-part series; currently on break. Starring Donna as the best bestie ever, Bruce as the well-meaning but emotionally inept dad, and the Titans as their supportive selves, one part of this centres on trans girl Dick coming to terms with her gender while the other focuses on bisexual Wally tackling his internalised homophobia. They’re taking their time getting from A to B in the idiots to lovers pipeline <3
the wreckage of you I no longer reside in (the whole place is quiet) - 35k of about 90k total; in progress longfic; slow to update, but definitely not abandoned. Currently working on Steph’s chapter. Dick’s siblings are ghosts only he can see, and they’re doing their best to help their brother cope with their deaths. Kind of hard to move on when what you’re moving on from is carried with you though.
The Owl House
summer sun for you forever - 23k; complete multichap. Hunter, Luz and Vee each have their own demons. They each just want their siblings to be okay but, with as much trauma as these three have compiled between them, that’s not always as easy as they’d like.
I saw the end (it looked just like the middle) - 5k; complete oneshot, or the first instalment in an incomplete series. Originally intended as a oneshot, I then started to add to this AU. The sequel is still in progress, but not currently being updated. An AU of Hollow Mind where, instead of finding out he’s a grimwalker through Belos’s mindscape, Hunter instead finds out because he discovers his replacement growing in the castle. And, well, Hunter is big brother material whether he realises it or not.
Rise of the TMNT
closer to me than my bones (haunting isn’t enough) - 30k; complete multichap. Disaster Twins-centric psychological horror. Donnie became one with an alien spaceship. What if what came out wasn’t quite Donnie anymore?
The Square Root of Three - 2k; incomplete, but can stand alone as a short oneshot, I think. Sometimes a family can be you, the alternate past version of your mother/sister/cousin, her queerplatonic turtlefriend, and their baby who is also an alternate past version of you.
INTERFACE - 90k; complete. My first finished longfic! Donnie- and April-centric platonic soulmates AU spanning pre-canon, the Bad Timeline, and the Good Timeline post-canon. Donnie’s first soulmate is everything he could’ve hoped for. His second isn’t quite so clear-cut.
every single person who critiqued this until it was cancelled should be ashamed. You didn’t HAVE to take part. If you truly believed it was unfair for Black fans to ask us not to buy comics during Pride (Black fans turn up for us. They didn’t ask us for anything they haven’t done for us - and there are plenty of queer Black fans out there who just found out which part of their identity is more “important” to other DC fans. Sorry, but the argument that this could hurt sales of queer comics is dumb as shit to me. I don’t want queer comics if it’s at the expense of Black fans. None of us are free until all of us are free etc.) no one was making you. It’s really easy to just not take part in something. But complaining and lashing out and sending critiques to those behind or supporting the boycott was not called for. This could’ve really made a difference.
I feel like people reblogging and spreading this post around are completely missing the original context that this was a vent post and not a general statement. I am schizophrenic. I posted this after remembering a specific time someone actively made an effort to comb through my online profiles and look for reasons to claim I'm "problematic" in order to get me banned from one of the few places i feel safe talking in because they found me mildly annoying and wanted a more valid reason to hate me. I was a minor at the time.
A lot of people are reblogging this without the addition too which frustrates me because I feel like it's really important to bring attention to the specific sort of discrimination schizophrenic people are subject to.
People will see that you're visibly mentally ill, think that you're annoying and actively look for reasons to dislike you, leading to your presence being constantly fucking monitored and judged because everyone's looking for a concrete reason to hate you. That's what this post is about. this is not a general positivity post or a statement. This is an exasperated vent from a schizophrenic person who has been pushed to his fucking brink so many times.
This doesn't just apply to schizophrenia of course- this applies to other schizospec or psychotic disorders, this applies to personality disorders (ESPECIALLY CLUSTER B.) and this spplies to DID and OSDD and other dissociative disorders. Hell this applies to any even remotely stigmatized disorder. I've seen friends with nothing up with them except for mild autism be treated like this solely because someone found them annoying.
My point is that people should really think hard about why you may find these sorts of people annoying. Just really think about if they actually did anything wrong to you other than be annoying.
You know what? I think this deserves to go on a reblog of the original post and not its own post.
I literally do not care how much they "resist treatment" or "don't accept help" that's still a mentally ill person and they deserve respect, NOT for you to vent about them under my post about my own fucking experiences with schizophrenia for me, another schizophrenic person, to see.
This is exactly how my fucking family talks about me. You need to realize that people can see what you fucking put in tags.
how does a point as simple as "we should be nicer to schizophrenics" make you think that replying with "Oh I only partially agree because this specific schizophrenic is a burden on my life… not you by the way op!!! you're a perfectly fine and normal schizophrenic!! it's just that this specific schizophrenic is someone who has been a burden to me and i don't think we should be nice to them" is a good idea
I really hope your younger brother finds a better support system because it clearly isn't you.
Yeah this is like exactly where this "non-compliant" behavior comes from. Psychosis destroys the relationship you have with your family and oftentimes parents don't know how to treat their kids with respect and this only leads to relationships being further destroyed and the psychotic person hating their family even more. This happened to me!!! And to this day I can't trust literally anyone in my family because they let me down when I was at my worst and affirmed my delusions about them.
no fic today folks! Been busier this week than anticipated and I don’t want to rush through editing when I’m also out this afternoon/evening. You can expect to see it on Friday 19th June instead :)
the mindsets and backgrounds behind light yagami and jason todd’s respective turns toward murder-as-justice are miles apart, no argument, however I am still adding hurricane from death note the musical to my JT playlist bc. It’s a banger.
i get that americans love their cultural imperialism, but it really does piss me off that june is “international” pride month just because something happened in the united states.
in aotearoa, june isn’t our pride, it’s theirs. marsha p johnson and sylvia rivera are their historical figures, not ours. the phrase that “you owe your rights to Black trans women” is true there, but here we owe our rights to (mostly) Māori historical figures. i have the freedoms i do because of the legacy of an entirely different set of people operating in an entirely different context at entirely different times.
But because of american cultural imperialism, most queer people in Aotearoa don’t even know our own queer history. Carmen Rupe, Ngahuia Te Awekotuku, the Dorian Society, Gillian Laundon, Georgina Beyer, and the Wolfenden Association are some of our queer history. We should know their names! we should know what they did for us! but because of the power of the american imperial machine, we don’t.
our national pride month should be july, the month that the Homosexual Law Reform Act passed in 1986. our two largest cities hold their pride festivals in february and march, respectively. american queer history has very little (or nothing, depending on who you ask) to do with our queer history. anecdotally, from my own queries, queer youth in aotearoa know more about american queer history than our own.
anyway, happy pride, americans. i’m truly sorry that most of you don’t see the negative impact your nation’s culture has on the rest of the world. and to the rest of the world reading this, try searching for your own country and culture’s queer history, don’t accept the american narratives as your own. we deserve our own histories divorced from the cultural hegemony of the USA.
duke thomas spends 10+ years getting comics and growth and plot and hes "too new" and people "dont know him well enough". superboy prime gets five minutes of character development and hes suddenly a fan favorite getting shipped with every character under the sun. i hate this fandom.
