I'll Marry Whoever Makes Me a Dress (MEME)

Marinette Dupain-Cheng quickly ascended to Queen of Gotham University. She was the French Beauty who no one could believe came to Gotham. She was kind to everyone, but also distant. She had come to Gotham at fifteen and quickly broke many hearts. She had become a topic everyone talked about and it annoyed her competition. It was whispered that she was like Damian Wayne; cold-hearted.

"Marinette!" a guy called out.

She turned and looked at him confused. She couldn't recall him from any of her classes and she needed to be at her next class in five minutes.

He took a deep breath and half-question, half-shouted, "What would it take for you to date someone? You have denied so many people!"

Marinette looked at the stranger shocked and actually thought about the question.

'What would it take for me to say yes to a date? I haven't thought about dating in years and everyone in Gotham seems so shallow. They care about appearance and money. They're just like Chloe and Lila. Oh!'

Mari smiled, catching the guy off guard, "Make me a dress to wear on the date. It can be simple. It doesn’t have to be expensive material or an expensive date. My only personal requirement is that the dress not be revealing. If it looks trashy, that tells me you are trash."

The guy smiled happily and ran away. Marinette turned and headed straight to her class. She had no idea the weight her words carried and to how many. Many onlookers turned to each other before rushing away; eager to win her heart.

Marinette groaned as the teacher informed her the lab was currently full for the third time that week. She peaked in and saw every sewing machine was occupied. There were even ten people in line waiting to use it. Mari sighed and turned around, deciding to work at home instead.

'It's not even finals week! What is going on?'

Marinette finally understood when people started bring her clothes and asking her opinion. Some were pretty, but too short. Others the sleeves were too long or mismatched.

"You're nothing but a liar!" A guy screamed at her, "We all made clothes for you to wear and you always pick something wrong with it! You're just wasting all of our time!"

Marinette glared at him, and hissed back, "I told one person about the dress requirement, not the entire school. I despise liars. I liked the dresses and gave valid information on how they could be better, but they couldn't even do the first part of design right."

The guy took a step back, never seeing her so upset.

'Fuck! I ruined my chance.'

"I have my design, right here!" A rejected boy called out, "My dress even looked like it!"

Marinette turned and eyed the design. She recalled it. It was a blue, off the shoulder dress, but it looked like it the bottom was uneven. There had also been no security band for the dress to remain above the chest.

"I told you what needed to be fixed." She stated, "You have not brought me a new version. You are throwing a tantrum because your so-called effort was wasted."

Suddenly, he was shoved to the side as Damian Wayne walked up with his own bag. Marinette looked at him and everyone went silent.

"You-" she began.

"I have a dress. I designed it, myself. I have the sketches in my art book. I have the receipts for the fabric. My mother taught me how to sew up wounds and asked Alfred how it would differ. He had me watch many video before attempting a single stitch." Damian announced, "This was my first attempt."

Damian pulled out a teddy bear that looked like it had been found in Crime Alley. He heard a few snickers behind him, but kept his eyes ahead.

"I have hope for you." She spoke, taking the bar and hugging it.

Craig scoffed, "Let me guess, cause he's a Wayne? I thought you were different!"

"No." She replied, opening his garment bag.

Mari showed off a plain green dress. It was sleeveless and so ridiculously plain, it looked like it was something off the rack from a store. Damian stood still, embarrassed feeling everyone judge him.

"Damian was the only one to ask me for my measurements. " Marinette announced, "You can design anything you want, but for someone to wear it, you have to know their sizes. Everyone has different body types and those deserve the same respect. None of you respected me enough to ask. I was a trophy to you."

The crowd remained silent.

"I'll try it on today and let you know how it fits." Mari spoke up, "Where would you like to go on your date?"

"Gotham Muesum and a cafe." He answered.

She smiled, "I'd like that." and left with the dress.

Damian felt his throat tighten as Marinette arrived to the museum in his green dress. Somehow it looked amazing on her. He could tell she didn't change a thing. There was still a few threads hanging loose from the bottom and on the side.

"You can change if you wish." Damian spoke, as she approached him.

"Does it look bad on me?" She questioned.

"No." He answered.

Mari smiled. "Maybe I will get inspiration while we're here."

"Am I taking you away from something?" He asked, "Do you have an event coming up?"

"Nope." She stated as she entered the muesum, "Just…. Maybe you can wear one of my designs on our next date."

Damian watched as she entered the muesum, leaving him outside. He smirked.

'So, I've been claimed. Interesting.'

nothing on this god's green earth can convince me that peter parker doesn't have an ao3 account where he is elbows deep in a 'rise of skywalker' fix-it fic. like, fully invested in it, been writing it pre-spider bite with ned, who is just as enthusiastic about it. but the thing is, it's really hard to do updates when you are literally spider-man.

every three months he'll post and in the author's note there's some shit like "sorry this took a while, i got shot seven times :/" or "i know it's been a minute, i literally got hit by a bus and then stabbed in the leg, but i'm all good!" or sometimes ned would log in and post with a note "hey i'm a friend posting on the author's behalf, they're healing from severe hypothermia but promised an update, so here it is!"

and the fic just gets increasingly more popular for the author notes alone. a good handful of the comments are something along the lines of "i'm not even in the star wars fandom, i'm just here to see if the author is good" or "every update i cheer for another day the author gets to live at this point"

and any reader who is a native new yorker kind of pieces together that holy shit the author might be spider-man because the timeline adds up, and they just fully embrace it. spider-man will stop a robbery and the guy behind the counter will ask when the next chapter will be up. spider-man returns a stolen backpack to a girl and she'll tell him that he "really got poe's voice down so well, it's really impressive."

ned thinks it is hilarious. mj finds out about the fic from twitter, to peter's absolute horror, and changes peter's contact name to "friendly neighborhood ao3 author". but the worst thing to happen is after an avengers battle where peter took a pretty big hit and ends up in med-bay. and during a press conference, when someone asks how spider-man is healing, tony just drops "spidey won't be down for too long. the star wars fic will be updated within the week, probably."

ao3 goes down for two days.

[ghostedmemoryofficial]

i think Peter as Tony's personal intern could go so many funny fucking ways and i am so surprised that i haven't seen more people taking advantage of this fact. imagine it:

Peter has been given an internship with Stark Industries as Tony Starks very own personal intern. Now, Midtown and the public do not know this (all Midtown knows is that he HAS an internship, whether or not the students believe him. here, the teachers at least do). Peter is in Tony's lab after school on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and is usually there during the weekends as well.

Hence, he starts to act more and more like Tony as it goes along. Just imagine people walking up to him to have a conversation, and he starts saying some bullshit.

Teacher: everybody, turn to whoever you are sitting next to and work on this assignment together for the rest of class, please.

Peter: *turns, nods, goes back to his own work*

Classmate: uhh. so are we going to work on this together, or?

Peter: *silently slides his paper over. it's completed* just don't talk to me.

Even more, he'd start to have a relationship with the Avengers as well, not just as Spider-man, but as Peter Parker. And, by spending so much time with Tony, he's gotten significantly more confident. Imagine him deciding to mention the PSA's with Steve.

Steve: hey, Peter, is Tony around?

Peter: if I knew, I wouldn't tell you

Steve: what? why?

Peter: I had to listen to you lecturing me for two hours after school on a Monday. I'm sick of your face, Steven.

Steve: ...you weren't here on Monday? We also didn't have a case together? I haven't seen you since Thursday last week.

Peter: *turns, gives Steve the most deadpan stare he can manage* so, you got detention.

Steve: ...I'll see myself out. Hey, FRIDAY? where is Tony and help me get as far away from this teenager as soon as possible

idk i just think there are so many comedic possibilities and i need them utilised.

There will literally never be enough fics

[abcdfghjklmpqrobin]

I love that Jimmy Olsen is exactly the type of photographer Peter Parker pretends to be. Just bat-shit insane.

Whenever someone asks Peter how he took a picture he's like "Oh! I uh-, climmed a flagpole. Totally"

And very mortal, normal-human Jimmy is like "See, Clark, is not that weird"

I mean, look at this nutjob.

The world could be ending, lava on the streets and Jimmy would be out there photographing away. No powers, no sense of self preservation. Just khakis, a camera and a dream.

I like to imagine Peter meeting Jimmy and immediately being mortified about it.

Jimmy: –and so luckily I was able to take the picture before the building collapsed on me... Superman was super pissed at me but, photographer to photographer, it was totally worth it.

Peter: Right, no– See, this is actually my first time hearing how fucking insane that sounds. No wonder people at work look at me weird.

[gracieparkerr]

Tony, absolutely baffled when he’s called to pick his intern up from school, because May can’t get out of work and Peter got in a fight with another student.

He shows up late, strolls into the office of midtown high, and his kid is completely untouched. No bruises, no bloody knuckles, no shiners. Really, he just looks annoyed to be there.

Tony does the obligatory sign out, gets as little answers as possible from the staff, and walks Peter outta there.

“So?” Tony asks him, once they were in the car. Because clearly there’s a story, and it’s one he wants to know.

Peter’s buckling his seatbelt. “Guy was being racist. I told him to shut up and he punched me. So I kinda tripped him, and he hit his chin on the floor. He’s fine, nothing broke. I would’ve heard it.”

“Right. Right. And why are you bruise-free?”

“Dude. I get hit by alien monsters and guys in massive tech-suits. You think a punch from a sixteen year old who only works out in gym class is gonna hurt me? He didn’t even do it right. He probably sprained his wrist.”

Tony’s really gotta look into how durable this kid actually is.

Random Peter in Gotham scene that popped into my head without much context

There was someone on the roof with him. Peter had heard the approach from 3 roofs over, and knew of the new arrival seconds before he ever opened his mouth.

"Hey kid, mind getting away from the edge of the roof there?"

Peter knew that type of voice. He had used it himself quite often when dealing with people who were just one step away from plummeting. Not always even from the top of a building.

"You are doing it wrong." He adressed the stranger, undoubtedly one of the many vigilantes running around this city. He didn't turn around to see which one it was, and neither did he get any further away from the edge.

A fact that definitely alarmed the vigilante behind him, judging by the uptick in both his heartbeat and breathing, though he didn't let his voice reflect his anxiety.

"What am I doing wrong, kid?"

Peter snorted, recognizing the words for what they were. A tactic. A distraction. A way to keep Peter engaged and away from dark, self-ending thoughts, while the vigilante crept that little bit closer to him.

"That whole 'talking the suicidal person away from the ledge' thing. You gave your presence away too early, while you are still too far away. Your silent approach plus sudden talking could have startled me badly enough to lose my balance and fall down. Unless you have super speed, I would already be halfway down by the time you managed to run to the edge of the roof. If I was determined to jump, I would have done it the second you spoke, knowing I couldn't give you the opportunity to get closer and be able to catch me. Again, unless you have super speed." Then Peter turned around to stare at the vigilante behind him with a single raised eyebrow. "Do you have super speed?"

The guy did a weird combination of a snort/laugh/sigh, and put his hands on his hips, taking a few steps closer. "No. No super speed here."

Peter turned back around, staring at Gotham's night sky. "Lame."

A long exhale sounded from the vigilante. "Okay then, tiny smartass, how do *you* think it should be done?"

Peter's eyes narrowed at being referred to as tiny, and just for that, he put some extra snark into his answer.

"Obviously I would come at them from a direction where they could see me right away, and where I would be in a position to catch them should they jump."

Peter knew without even looking that now it was the vigilante's turn to be raising an eyebrow at him.

"So in our case here, you think I should have climbed up this building from below, smack dab in your line of sight?"

"Of course not," Peter rolled his eyes for emphasis, "if you are climbing up, your arms won't be free to catch anyone, duh. You are supposed to walk up the building. And you need to talk to them while you do it. Tell them you want to help. Tell a joke. Anything to distract them from jumping. Otherwise you are just gonna look creepy." Peter spoke from experience, of course. This tactic had worked for him many times.

The vigilante standing behind him snorted. "Yeah, sorry to disappoint you, kid, but I can't walk up walls, either."

Of course he couldn't, because that was a Spiderman trademark and Peter would sue if anyone stole his schtick. (Well, not really, but it was the principle of the matter.)

However, that didn't mean that Peter couldn't give the guy some smack about it.

"Skill issue."

And then, because Peter was tired, hungry, had lost his home, been tossed into a different universe, freaking lost a few years of his age and maturity AND gained a few phyiscal spidery changes he did *not* ask for, he decided to be even more of a little shit and scare the pants off the guy.

He stuck his feet that had been dangling over the edge to the wall of the building, and in one quick and smooth move, stood up to casually walk down the vertical wall.

Was it stupid and reckless to expose one of his abilities like this? Yes.

Was it worth it for the shocked scream and frantic lunge of the vigilante to try and snatch Peter back up to the top? Also yes.

For the past couple of months, I've read so many Peter Parker in Gotham fics that I can't tell them apart anymore. Whenever I get an update notification, I sit there trying to figure out which one this was. Doesn't help that the subgenre has so many established common beats.

For my own sake and sanity, this is a list of some that do stand out, that either break the mould or use it well enough to be memorable anyway. These are the updates I crave.

And When You Fall by @blackbellabu Peter in Gotham, but arrives together with a strange little girl he's never seen before.

Die a Little Sweeter by @forestofbabel Throws the mould out the window entirely. Peter keeps visiting Gotham at different stages of his life.

Existential Crisis Mode by @luciaintheskyainthi Everyone knows this one, right? No transition via snap, or pit, or universal erasure spell, which stands out right from the start.

Home Sweet Home by @queenisdemilo This one hits a lot of the tropes, but it does it so well, and has me on the edge of my seat.

The Mime of Gotham City by @lemongrovesandcloves Peter lands in the hands of the Joker instead of the bats. Longing for the next chapter to this one!

Phantom Liberty by @kpeccati Skips the orientation, and is set when Batman is just starting his career.

Stuck in a Web by AislinnHeart The bats are hilariously incompetent when it comes to being reassuring and trustworthy.

The Unsteady Retirement of One Mr Peter Benjamin Parker by aestorian Peter has had it with hero work and just wants to be Peter Parker, but keeps being bugged by bats.

[esrante]

This might be me being nerdy, but the trope Humans Are Space Orcs is so bbc Merlin if you look at the show in the perspective of literally everyone else in Camelot. Like what do you mean Merlin, a manservant, has survived multiple battles and monster attacks with no armor and no weapon? How in some days Merlin would be literally on his deathbed and the next day he's up and running, serving the King?? What do you mean he can wander freely around the castle and barge into the King’s and Queen’s chambers without knocking? And is allowed to speak to them with such insolence and tone that would be considered treason??

Servants who have worked at the castle since Uther’s reign find it strange how the number of assassination attempts dropped after Merlin arrived. Strange how Merlin can whisper a concern about a noble to the King or Queen, and that noble simply disappear or sent away from Camelot. Merlin who is also unnaturally good with animals?? so much so that the stable hands would ask him for help?? Some servants even swear the castle itself trembles when Merlin is angry, or that the weather turns foul when he grows quiet and withdrawn.

LIKE IMAGINE

Servant: Has anyone checked up on Merlin yet? It's been raining for three days now

Or,

New Stable guy: Wow, how did you calm the horse down?

Merlin: Talked to him. He was just grumpy cus he hasn't eaten yet

New Stable guy: what

Servant: Dont think about it too much

Like yeah Merlin is such a weird and odd fella and everyone just kinda accepts that.

All The Starks are brought back from the dead at the end fic Idea.

I'd really like a game of thones fic where things end slightly different and the four Starks left are visted by some being capable of bringing back the dead, maybe a creature that was freed when the long night ended idk but it tells them it will bring back one person for each of them. They can finally get their family back. I don't dig Incest so no Dany/Jon. She doesn't go crazy and they settle with a truce of Sansa rules the North and Dany literally everywhere else. So Jon asks to bring back Ygritte and gets to show her a real castle and she does swoon but, thats mostly from being back from the dead. Jon shows her all around winterfell and they get properly married and she becomes a lady.

Sansa asks for their father because despite missing their mother terribly and her brothers she feels like she could use her dad's advice on how to be a good ruler. To help remind her not to lose herself in her jadedness. Norther heart vs. The mind of the South that she learned to survive with.

I think It be interesting if Aria asked for Bran as someone familiar with faces and knows the person with her brother's isn't him. It be more intresting if Bran asked for himself both from the small flicker of himself already in there and the 3 eyed raven having served its purpose having pitty and leaving/dying or Alternatively is supressed by the entity raising the dead and the entity having mercy and banishing it while not counting it as a life brought back. Then Bran could ask for Rickon and Aria for Rob or their mother. One of the brothers brought back dares to ask if every stark gets to ask for one person if they can too and they are granted it. Rob gets his wife who asks for their babe as she is a Stark by marriage. Their mother would get one person as well. Suddenly the Starks are all reunited angst hurt comfort galore maybe a bit of fluff thrown in their. Get to see season one people react to how the surviving Starks have grown. If you get real creative could bring back the direwolves as well as they are Starks and could wish for each other Nymera misses her pack too.

Catwoman Meets The Justice League

Why are there so many the batfamily meets the Justice League fics but I've not come across a Cat Woman meets the Justice League?

I just see in my head them greeting each other

"Cat"

"Bat"

and the league just looking between the two as they clock the sexual tension.

I could see this both with them just happening to be in the same place for very different reasons or because Bruce as good as he is knows someone who'd pull off a nesscarry heist without it turning into a big fight with collateral damage. Both an off and on again relationship or a very casual wife reveal would be funny. Especially if Dick drops the hint about her being better than his ex (wife) and one of his kids makes a comment of his type being dangerous and criminal.

I also love the idea of the League going through whatever scenario confounded and uncomfortable as they watch as the two flirt with all this tension and history. The whole time Bruce is keeping Selina from taking something that she shouldn't including maybe even the green lanterns ring mostly just to see if she could. Batman is vouching for her and its obvious they had history to that at least they admit but, the two to their mutual amusement don't actually reveal anything unless its at the most chotic or dramatic moment possible.

Most fun date (cough) I mean mission that they have ever had have to do it again sometime. Then as soon as the team thinks they understand anything and get use to the idea of the bat&cat ship she just dissappears and they are totally set off balance. Do they ask? Do they not? Who is brave enough to tackle the elephant in the room? Diana or Clark either step up or get volunteered. Or maybe Flash ask Nightwing who is just like "Oh yeah. No Catwoman just comes and goes like a cat. Trust me it's better the two don't spend too much consecutive time together. She'll come back when she's ready."

In the case of a direct Batman ask I can see several funny avenues

1) Bruce is aware of what they all think was anticipating it and has been trolling them and will troll them with his response.

2) He as virtue of never having a real conventional relationship and as this has been a long time established routine that nobody in his life has blinked at in years has genuinely forgotten its odd and how it might come across to others. He is deep in though on a current case and it takes him a minute to realize what issue his friend is trying to dance around or as sensitivitly as possible bring up. (trolling or genuine after the realization dealers choice.)

3) Angst. Bruce is actually sensitive about this topic as he had tried in the beginning to force the two into a conventional relationship and its rules which is why it turned off and on again till they figured it out and realized it wasn't in either of their natures to be constantly around each other. They are just two independent and need more space and freedom. They love each other deeply, are there when the other needs them with a single call or glance, they are committed, but the orbit around each other. Selina and Bruce both come and go as they please and have a set of boundaries they don't cross, rules for each other, but otherwise do as they please whenever they please because if they tried to dictate anything the other did they'd fight. This took time to learn and work out but, Bruce gets touchy when he feels like they have assumed that he's done something to drive her away or that she just left him or imply that they're relationship must not be as serious as they thought.

4) Nobody says anything for a long time to Bruce because as soon as they work up the courage they're is a gift from Selina or she shows again and they think oh they made up but then it continues. She disappears, inquires lead to brisk answers of her location like she's in france and Bruce sighs and rubs his head because he just knooows what she's probably upto, which makes the league unsure if its a good or bad thing and leaning towards bad. Then she's back the following week practically draped across his shoulders. The she's isn't even mentioned for two months. She comes back and she stands next to Bruce for a whole afternoon not saying anything, not touching him, just aloof cat imitation as she reads a book or stares out a window stoically. She barely greets them and walks off if they start small talk with her and then she comes back into the room again to just stand or sit there a foot from Batman. Then she's only gine two days before she's leaving red lipstick all over the cowl. Finally They lose it and ask startling loud and confrontational about wtf is goingbon between the two. Are they together are they just a casual thing? Are they breaking up every two weeks like teenagers just to get back together again?

There are so many funny crack fics that could be made with sprinkles of angst or sweet romantic fluff, or maybe even a dusting of batfamily feels with mama cat with her kittens. Maybe a short pov of the batkids finding it hilarious to see someone else as uncomfortable as them with the sexual tension and flirtation of the two and their PDA that accompanies it.

[chroniclesofchronicillness]

This makes so much sense

[snigepippi]

May I add:

Too many I know, give more than asked and run themselves ragged.

I know you want to be good and kind to others and show your skills. But please don't. It just leads to more work because people think you can handle it, or uses you. If you can perform 100% of what is asked with 70% of your energy, do that and save the 30% for yourself.

Trick for Sleep Paralysis/Fucked Up Dreams

I thought I'd share this trick that works for me in case there is anyone this could help. A medication I take has a sedative effect. Most of the time I'm glad for it because I have trouble falling asleep. However I also occasionally find myself falling into this state of half sleep where I'm too aware of my body. I alternate between different states of this inbetween. Sometimes its just sleep paralysis, sometimes I'm dreaming but I'm aware I can't move my body. The dreams are most often me laying in my bed and trying to move or call out with little success and very hard to distinguish from reality other times they are fucked up and I keep trying to wake up during them. I sometimes do briefly wake before falling back again or I think I do. A lot of time I have a weird feeling right before I fall asleep and this happens thats hard to explain, like I'm being dragged down but with this restless anxiety. It also tends to happen more if I start to fall asleep at a time when I'm not normally alseep.

I have learned though a way to prevent this from happening when I'm scared it might happen. It has worked everytime I have used it. The trick is getting your brian in the right mindset before you sleep and reminding your brain your safe in your bed. You got to trigger the right part of your subconscious.

There are two things I do the second one is the trick the first is more of a safety net. I remind myself before I fall asleep that if I'm aware that I'm asleep I should be able to control the dream around me, I have lucid dreamed before and its awesome. The thing that is scary is the lack of control so I like to remind myself I'm master of my own mind. This comforts me.

The trick I use is I play music really low, hardly even audible, that are songs from when I was a kid and fell asleep in the car. The first time I did this or got the idea to do this, thank the Lord for answered prayers, I was trying to pretend for a moment that I was falling asleep in the car on a road trip. Mom is playing the radio like she always did in the front seat driving and I'm in the backseat, like when I was a little girl. I go back to that memory. I go to the safe place where I'm happy and the doze is that good state of inbetween sleep where you feel the movement of the car on the road and you're listening to the radio. I often had a hard time falling asleep with music on but, I'd take dramamine for my car sickness and it make me drowsy and I'd fall asleep or I'd only fall half asleep on shorter rides with nothing in my system listening to the radio when I was little because of the motion and being a kid I would just get tuckered out from the day.

I don't pretend every time, to be falling half asleep in the memories of my childhood but it certainly helped that first time. I have a playlist and I sometimes set a sleep timer for and hour sometimes I don't I just let it play. I want it to play while I'm asleep so my brain remembers. So that is the mindset I'm in. Not the scary quiet isolation of paralysis but, in the happy melodies of my childhood. For me that is mostly 90s to early 2000s country music with some from the 80s thrown in there. They aren't all songs I'd put on a normal playlist or listen to on the regular. Its all songs that would have been on the radio when my mom was driving. I also throwed in some songs that my other mother would listen to when I was young. The point is they are songs that are comforting in their familiarity and memories.

Truthfully being half asleep shouldn't be scary. It shouldn't freak you out to the point it turns into disturbing dreams. Sleep is awesome. Dreaming is awesome. The lack of control is scary but, it shouldn't be you're asleep, you don't need to be moving around and its very temporary. You are curled up in your warm comfy bed with nothing else to do than enjoy your imagination. Once you get out of that scared mindset you can actually enjoy sleep as you should. Sometimes you forget how un scared you should be in the fogginess of sleep. So If you fear what might be awaiting you when you close your eyes maybe try playing songs from a comforting time in your life. Go to those good memories there is more to your subconscious than the bad. Open those brighter doors instead.

p.s. for any that aren't currently in a place where they feel safe when they go to bed that this doesn't help as much with right now because of your current circumstances. It will get better, I have known many people who have been in bad situations and tried to get out multiple times and were punished and/or discredited. They got out though because they kept trying. Don't give up hope, keep yourself safe and keep your eyes out for opportunities, your day will come where you'll be able to get out and turn whats going on now into nothing but a bad memory. You won't believe how much better your life can be with one change of circumstance.
