Okay, you know the whole "Danny is a scientist at WE but his coworkers shun him because he's really smart and really nice" thing and it's not only suspect in Gotham but also a surefire path to villainy or heroism and Danny has made it very clear that he's against heroism (he's actually criticized teenage heroism because, you know, he's been there doing that)

So

I'd like to see them marginalize him so much (not on purpose though) that he eventually stops trying to be friends with his coworkers even though he's still nice

And then after Danny has completely given up, at some point (the attack on the company and the building is isolated for example) he drops a line and everyone realizes that he WAS a teenage hero and when asked about it he's COMPLETELY OPEN about his past.

Like "yeah, typical origin story with not so typical other stuff. But I'm retired now because I was able to befriend my rogues and we agreed on a sparring schedule!" and "oh yeah, I was cloned and they were going to kill me, but I talked them out of it and now I have another sister!" and "I fought my evil future self, but he's now in rehab and getting better!"

And everyone's like. Oh. He's just sweet

But the thing is

Denny tried, and now he doesn't need all that work friendship. He's not as lonely as he was in the beginning (I'm personally a "dead on main" fan, so say hi to cute neighbor Jason!)

I don't know where this is going. Sorry for the rambling

I just want his coworkers (and maybe bats) to realize that this guy was very lonely in the new city, just wanted to be friends and he's really cool

And now he's not so open to the idea of friendship with colleagues. Rogue on the other hand...

Bat-fic inspiration

So I was scrolling on youtube right?

And I come upon one of those voice-over Tumblr reads with the Minecraft parkour in the background, right?

It was titled something like 'times batman said 'im fine' (and he wasn't)' right?

and one section was like

'Situation: Alfred hugged him for no reason......

Quote: '...whats wrong'(I read it like a statement{like a statement, not a question}

Batfam note: this one broke us'

and I was like "O MY GOD, THE ANGST POTENTIAL IS ENDLESS"

and so that brings me to the point of this post;

I NEED someone to write a batfam fic (or literally any other team-relationship centered fic! it can be the justice league! I'm not picky) with this exact premise/opening:

*clears throat*

"It had been an unusual couple of weeks since the last scarecrow attack. Ever since Bruce woke up from his fear-gas induced coma, he has been more........ emotional. He would suddenly pull people into hugs or try to have actual conversations with people.... It was weird. And so the collective decision had been made to exact revenge; they had even enlisted the help of Alfred, this was gonna be good.

Someone pulled out their phone to record as Alfred approached Bruce, who was currently bent over the Batcomputer, working on a case. The video was being live-streamed to the group chat. Alfred reached Bruce and enveloped the towering man in a big hug. There was a solid minute of silence. You could see Bruce attempting to process what was going on and failing miserably, his face then hardened as he placed his hands on Alfred's shoulders and pulled the older man away. He then looked Alfred in the eye before asking him in a serious tone

"Alfred, what's wrong."

Alfred seemed to be caught off-guard by the question, this prompted Bruce to prod further

"Are the kids alright/ Are you alright? C'mon Alfred. What happened."

Everyone watching freezed. Why did he looked so worried? So scared?

"Alfred, can you hear me?"

All Alfred had done was give him a hug. Why was he reacting like this when he had been doing the exact same thing?

"Alfred!"

Alfred was the one who was closest to Bruce. The one he trusted and cared for the most.

"Ah. I'm sorry master Bruce, nothing's wrong"

"Then why did you do that?"

Was it really that strange to Bruce to receive affection? A hug? Even from Alfred?

"It-"

They could see Alfred tense up ever so slightly.

"It nothing sir, no need to make a fuss"

Alfred then turned and walked away. Bruce watched him for a while before sighing and returning to his work. Someone heard him mumling.

"Must've been the kids"

Everyone was silent. They had been expecting surprise, embarrassment, or awkwardness, not.... this. That made some people think, when was the last time they initiated a hug with Batman that didn't involve a life-changing or world experience?"

End scene

So I hope someone takes it from here cuz I need to read this!

in the middle of shitty comic there is always that one panel that makes me go "hnrghghrghhhh"

Hannibal as media concepts, back on extremely popular demand(!!!). As promised, this ones for Will Graham, our beloved trauma boy.

Will Graham is what would happen if Caleb Covington weren’t a magician and actually dreamt about killing people. Who’s to say he doesn’t do that already? (Julie and the Phantoms, alternatively, Julie and the Himbos)

Will Graham is what would happen if Charlotte weren’t ADHD, got along with OW! Clarice and owned Hannibal Lecter adjacent cats. (Death by Dying)

Will Graham is what would happen if Damian(not sure of the spelling) were a person and a tiny bit psycho. (The Penumbra Podcast: Second Citadel)

Will Graham is Antonio Blake/ Oliver Banks but way less chill. Again, no explanation necessary. (The Magnus Archives)

Will Graham is what would happen if Stevie Budd had met Hannibal Lecter instead of David Rose, and worked for the FBI instead of running a hotel. (Schitt’s Creek)

Will Graham is what would happen if Damien gave into his power fully, but instead of using it for mind control, used it to crawl into psychopaths’ minds. (The Bright Sessions). Side note: Will Graham is also what would happen if Helen were actually a good person, and an empath instead of a human FM. (The AM Archives)

Will Graham is what would happen if Feston Pyxis had given up on life and actually solved cases with Proxy! Jack Crawford and slightly more annoying Serena! Freddy Lounds. (StarTripper!!!) (Serena fans don’t @ me. )

Will Graham is what would happen if Devi Vishwakumar never went to therapy and thought about killing people instead. (Never Have I Ever)

Will Graham is what would happen if Rita went off the deep end completely, I dunno.Alternatively, Will Graham and Sarah Steel are the same person, except that Will has a steelier(see what I did there?) resolve and actually enjoys being a little nuts. (The Penumbra Podcast: Juno Steel)

Will Graham is what would happen if Nastya held the guns instead of Jonny. (The Mechanisms)

Bonus: Will Graham is what would happen if Clarice wasn’t such a darn good person. (Silence of the Lambs)

That’s all from me, folks! All the three protagonists of the three books from the Lecterverse(dunno the actual name) are done. Of course, if I think of anymore I’ll reblog them.

But for now. Adios!
