I saw you wrote some stories about Bart Allen and Jaime Reyes. I don’t know much about those characters, why do you think they suit each other? If they were soulmates in TTMHMYC what colour eyes would they have?
Funny you should ask! Before I ever thought of Damian and Colin and TTMHMYC, I used the same Soulmate Eyes AU for Jaime and Bart. Now that fic didn't get written back when I was thinking of it, but I tested the AU on that ship first. I'd give Jaime dark copper eyes, and Bart sage green. Though back then I probably would have just said green and brown lol.
Gosh, I haven't like deep thought about those two in a minute. But I was really, really into that pairing back in 2017-2019. I still love them, to be fair. The ship is mainly based off of the Young Justice cartoon, back when there were only 2 seasons and we didn't know there would be more. I still haven't seen the new ones yet, but I want to.
Bart's character in particular in that show, how he came from a terrible future that he set out to change only to meet Jaime who supposedly was part of the reason that future happened in the first place, but then Bart chose to help him so he'd never become that terrible guy...it just hit my feels like a truck! The fanfics I read didn't help, but they were SO good. And friends to lovers is always fun when it comes to ships.
As far as the comic versions of them, I don't know if they've actually met? Jaime's in a weird spot as far as the DC timeline goes. I've seen him shoehorned into Dick's era of the Titan's and that doesn't seem right for him. I'd put him in Tim's, and not just so he could meet Bart, but because that works better with Jaime being the third Blue Beetle and it gives Ted Kord time to be Blue Beetle before Jaime comes around.
Someday I might just write the Bluepulse Soulmate Eyes AU fic. It was MUCH shorter in concept, just a backdrop to then explore how that would affect the main YJ show plot, but it was still fun. Plus I've said lots of times that any of you guys could use the Eyes AU for any ship in any fanon. Might as well prove it.
