for the New Year Fanfic meme, 5 and 11?

5. Which WIP is first on your list to complete this year? Will you post a snippet?

i am absolutely determined to finish my year of the otp/year of jason and slade series before the end of the month. a snippet from the dicktim i've been working on:

Sneaking in to run Dick a nice bath after a long day with Bruce is the least he can do, really. And, probably more importantly, he wants to. Wants to make Dick feel good in any way that he can. He can tell that Dick wants the same thing - he brings Tim coffee to the Bunker or the office, makes him stop working when he can and makes sure Tim eats when he can’t. Actions speak louder than words for both of them, and they’re putting in the work to make it work. Tim’s never had a relationship like this, really. He’s pretty sure he’s never been happier.

11. Would you like to try any new fanfic genres or tropes this year?

i don't know about new tropes, but i do want to get that DickTim trope fill thing off the ground today...

For the WIP ask game - "friend" 👀

dicktim fake their deaths and run away together, an absolute top trope for me :chefkiss:

“He was our friend, too, Bart!” Cassie shouts. She’s crying, she thinks. She’s been crying a lot recently. “You aren’t the only one that misses him!”

“We should be out there! Looking for him!” Bart answers, just as loud. “Kon said he thought he heard him! Both of them!”

“I was wrong.” Kon whispers. “I asked Superman. Neither of us heard anything.”

“Then why-?” Cassie breaks off.

“I thought… I don’t know. I thought I heard it.”

Cassie watches as he blinks back a tear.

“It’s not your fault, Kon. We all wanted you to hear him.” She says, dropping heavily onto the couch next to him.

“Yeah.” Bart says. “Sorry.”

“Me too.” Kon says, joining them. “Me too.”
