Does Jason have a hand fetish or is he just in love with Pandora’s hands ?? 😂

Hahaha, no hand fetish 😂 (but if any of y’all have one that’s fine we don’t judge here) Jason just likes that Pandora’s hands aren’t beat up like all of theirs because she has to take care of them to play the piano well. He just feels like unscarred, soft hands suit her.

And he’ll never let Damian live it down if they get ruined.

I like to think that when PanDam become a thing and they get married and have kids their kids will be helping Dam with his training. Like they’re the weight on his back for planks, he lights them and that’s one of the ways they bond. I’d like to believe that he won’t make them do combat training for a little while cause he wants them go have what he didn’t have early in his childhood.

- Damian’s usual work-out turned into run-around-the-house instances usually involve him with his wife sitting on his shoulders, around his neck waving her hands and laughing while he holds one kid in each arm up and does laps like it’s nobody’s business

- sometimes the occasional staff member at the manor sees this and (1) panics and almost faints or (2) just goes about their day like usual

- Damian usually airily tells them they really way nothing more than flies and they always get all huffy-puffy about this. If Pandora’s walking by then she comes over and sits on top of him too or lays over him like a sloth until Damian relents and he turns around to hold her because he can’t really resist.

- Pandora found him debating over their first kid’s crib one day, looking serious and broody as usual so she asked him what was going on and he said he wasn’t sure what age was appropriate in normal standards to teach their child how to disarm their opponents or defend themselves or hold a sword

- Pandora kind of mulls this over and just asks “When do you want them to do any of that?”

- Damian thinks about it before he realizes, “Never. I never want them to have to do that.”

- Pan kind of just goes with it with a smile and kisses him, resting her head on his shoulder and saying “Okay then” they both end up figuring out training is a great way to tire the kids out when they get to a reasonable enough age so Damian sort of low-key tests and plays around with what they seem to be interested in first and then just hardcore makes them pro at that, you want to learn to hold a sword like your father? Okay, you’re going to fucking kill at holding the sword--

- Damian told Pandora he wanted their kids to learn the piano before throwing a punch. She just laughed at him and asked what if they want to learn something else?

“Then they can learn. Later. Whatever they want. First and foremost, even just a bit, I want them to be like you.”

Headcanon that Tim and Pan don't really hang out because ... reasons but when they do Tim teaches Pandora how to hack into computers and he's amazed at how quickly she catches everything he teaches Thoughts?

“I’m really good at listening to directions,” Pandora said, pointing to the screen. “I couldn’t do this on my own. If you just tell me what to do though, I can get it pretty quick. Won’t remember on my own.”

“But that’s still…” Tim stopped, trailing off with a frown. “Listening to directions?”

“Yeah,” Pandora said, tapping away. “It’s not that hard to listen to the rules or what people tell you, you know? I’m pretty good at that.”

Tim pressed a hand to his mouth, blinking.

Listening to directions—

Tim blinked. 

“Come, Pandora.”

“Pandora, here.”

“Pandora, follow me.”

“Pandora—“

Oh my god, Damian.

Damian buying Pan and him matching outfits. As in: Dam’s: If lost please return to Pandora Pan: Hi, I’m Pandora.

absolutely yes but they also have the reverse

Pandora’s: If lost please return to Damian. (Followed by his number, detailed descriptions and small print about how not to be confused with any other Damian at all costs.)

Damian: I’m Damian.

In an generation-swap Nascent AU, how would the relationship between Pandora and Jason change? (I read your Memoirs AU and I just--- 😍)

- Frank Ocean is my god. I literally worship the ground this man walks on, he’s beautiful. I wasn’t planning on going to Coachella originally because of the abroad thing, but it’s such a shame the whole thing is cancelled regardless :( Hopefully he’ll be willing to show up again for next year but this man is so hard to hunt down ;-;

There’s a handful of special songs I have saved to use for really important chapter titles, I really recommend listening to “Champagne Coast” by Blood Orange to get a feel for when that one comes!

- Lucy’s always wondered what having a boy would be like, and having someone like Jason as part of their family shifts dynamics a lot. Their home is a bit more rowdy, but no one even thinks to ever bother the Jayes’ bakery. Jason takes their last names but keeps Todd as his middle. He’s stupidly proficient in the kitchen with some decent teaching and he’s always the one to pick up orders and do the heavy work Pandora and Lucy have always managed to do on their own.

- Crooks like that one guy from forever chapters ago never show up because Jason guns people down with his eyes from across counters or on his way up and down the street, no one even thinks they could ever rob the place from how terrifying the young man still manages to grow up to be

- Jason and Pandora are stupidly close, each other’s best friends and their relationship as brother and sister is really thick. They look out for each other no matter what.

- Jason laughs a lot more and he smiles a lot more too, it’s impossible not to because here in this house, it’s a lot warmer

- Pandora giving up on normal communication and just waggling her brows at Damian over the piano to get him to understand what she’s trying to say is an absolutely accepted head canon

- I think age gaps can be a bit tricky, the really key thing to them is where the two parties are at parts of their life. I’ve always been a firm believer in being willing to stay open-minded to a lot of things, but I do feel like big gaps of 20 or more get risky when the other party is still under 18, like big risky, not just legally but you’re truly at two different parts of your life during that time. That’s not to say people can’t make it work, but it should be considered with care and lots of communication. But as always, when you’re 15 and he’s 25, it doesn’t seem as bad when you’re 35 and he’s 45. It really all depends for me on how two people are willing to make it work and making sure there’s critical and crucial amounts of communication and acceptance between both parties so they know neither of them feels they’re forfeiting something if that makes sense. 

I’ve honestly been around people who date with pretty large gaps, so it’s normalized it more for me seeing genuinely healthy relationships work out because they’re both mature enough to make it work. 

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR LOVING IT AND READING IT, I LOVE YOU MORE STAY WELL AND STAY HAPPY!!!

Ya know what? As much as I love where we are now with Pandora exploring more of Damian hero side outside the bat family and the new dynamics, I really am just excited for Damian to rip Andrew’s mim a new one. I know Pan wouldn’t want that but Dam has ways.

HAHAHAHAHA. What I’ve currently dubbed the Jayes Family arc or the Pandora Arc is fast on the horizon, lots of questions will be answered and hopefully satisfying confrontations on the verge. I’m excited to write more of Hal too :) It’s always crazy when the scenes you imagined ages ago finally start coming your way

[alkhale]

Hi! Nascent is just amazing and really well written🌟 You have such talent❤️ I have a question: What kind of reaction will Damian have when he sees Pan wearing his clothes (maybe the Robin costume)?

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR LOVING NASCENT AND FOR ALL THE NASCENT LOVE, THESE GUYS LOVE YOU JUST AS MUCH OKAY <333

- Right now Damian’s around 5′6″ and Pandora’s around 5′3″ and they’re both still growing! 

- They’d both be down to get matching tattoos. It’d be the kind of thing Pandora would see offhandedly and Damian would be the one to suggest it. She’d want to do something that fits the both of them but he’d want to do two notes with the connecting tie and a small repeat like a music score. They’re two notes tied together that continue going. Pandora would have it on the inside of her wrist and Damian would do the outside of his.

- Wildest Dreams is a fat solid yes

THANK YOU FOR READING!!!!
