Again, no one asked for this but here's another fic rec because people liked the last two and my brain has been filled with these fics and I will explode if I don't get them out.
The Babysitting Job by pornosophical is a beautiful slow burn Timkon fic that is just so accurate to their characters and portrays their relationship in such a beautiful way. I love it and I love all the supporting characters that are involved in it. Basically, Tim was planning on coming out to Kon when Steph asks him to fill in for her in babysitting Manhunter's son, so Kon helps out. It's beautiful and I love it.
I already recommended Nights and Days by malcyon, but A Saturday Evening is a beautiful, established relationship Timkon as a part of that series about Tim meeting Ma and Pa Kent. The characterisation of everyone is so on point and their relationships are all so accurate. I love how malcyon writes Tim and Kon and it just makes me so happy reading them being happy. And I love Ma and Pa Kent and people need to write more old people romance.
I was shocked to see there are like three fics about Serling Roquette in her tag because tbh I thought everyones mind just revolved around the funky side characters in my favourite comic runs. Anyway, more lovely and more temperate by merils is beautiful and amazing and so well written just like everything else they write. Serling Roquette moves to San Francisco and runs into an old friend, making two new ones in the process. Kon and Serling are long overdue for a reunion in comics and ugh, this fic just does both characters such justice. If I could recommend every fic by merils I would.
The Wind Sits in the Shoulder of Your Sail by BirdChild focusses on Tim and Bruces relationship post adoption in like the later issues of Robin 1993. I just love how it shows the complexities of the relationships in Tims life and the rational rightous anger that Tim feels but comes out at the wrong time. Like how everyone argues with their parent over something that seems stupid and evolves into a bigger argument when they're a teenager. Its just so real. I love it. It also has a little bit of comic accurate Timsteph (YAY) and addresses the complex relationship that Tim has with grief and, y'know, losing his gf and everyone he loves in a few months. I love it.
This ones my favourite rare pair and it makes me so happy to see that people have actually wrote fics about them instead of them just living in my head. Anyway, Thats How the Light Gets In by poisonivory is just. incredible. Its a bombcat fic about Grant Emerson and his relationships with a lot of people, mainly focussing on his one with Tommy Bronson, my favourite catboy. It's so beautiful and it just makes me so happy to see these obscure character that no one seems to talk about anymore be done justice. If you've never heard of these characters before, read Damage 1994 (lowkey a dumpster fire), Titans 1999 (amazing) and Justice Society 2007 (way too many characters but incredible but also half the time you actually have no idea what's happening because theres too many characters. justice society is what the justice league wishes they were and they are family goals) Another fic that's a little darker (also has some smut) is free time and a long spine by shenanigans which just gives Grant so much justice i love my angry human bomb ugh. Any fic by poisonivory or shenanigans is just amazing and i'd highly recommend reading.
Finally, hit me like lightning by cissiecassie is THE koncassie fic that just encapsulates the energy that they project in the comics. I could write an essay on how kon and cassies relationship and how it represents insecurity surrounding sexuality on both parts but i won't because i would bore you to death. Just the way that both of them are written in this is so amazing and Cassie's valley girl speech pattern is just so important to me and I'm happy someone included it. Kon and Cassie are both just so repressed gay man and lesbian woman and I love it.
That's all for now, I hope you guys enjoy these as much as I did and make sure you give these writers all the love that they deserve.
