Going feral over "this is a love story" because it so is.
How could the Narrator tear a god in two and expect them not to love each other? Not to love the first thing they knew that wasn't them, not to love that lost part of themself? Maybe it's because hating yourself is such a human thing, it's impossible to imagine a being torn in two loving its lost parts. Even when they're not perfect. Especially when they're not perfect.
Even when you get the worst outcome on a route, or one of the vessels with so many reasons to be angry, The Shifting Mound still loves The Long Quiet because they're gods, and death is to them what a paper cut is to us and this too shall pass and she loves him through all of it.
They are everything. They can be as good as they can be bad. They can love each other and hurt each other and those things are rarely mutually exclusive. They can meet afterwards and talk with kindness. There isn't a single part of them that doesn't have the potential to be something better. There isn't a single part of them that doesn't have the potential to be something worse. They're the same entity. Theyre the only different being the other has ever known. This is a love story.
suegiku is FINE theyre both alive and well and resting at home while talking to their son heres proof . i know asagiri personally
Okay Tim Drake lovers.
We’re making a Batfam fic board.
Tim-centered.
I’ll add my faves here with a couple notes.
Y’all, the comments section is free. Fill ‘er up!
- How to Accidentally Acquire A Brother by 172
!!UNFINISHED!! Last update in 2022. I’m so sad.
Tim and Jason centric.
I have so much love for this one. The soft growth Jason shows. Tim getting love but being so afraid. Ugh. Tim’s relationships with Ivy and Babs and Jason and aaaaggghhh
- A Backstitch in Time (series) by Megaerakles
Beautiful idiots. On the shorter side, each installment is a new POV.
Timetravel!!!
- The Buzzard (series) by FlightL3ss_Bird1029
I’m not as sure how I feel about this one.
One finished work, others actively updating.
- Dizzy Edges by @jojosquires
!!Unfinished!! Actively updating.
Timetravel! Speedsters being introduced! Soft Jason! Soft Dami! CASS!!!
- Blackbird Singing in the Dead of Night by britishparty
I’d say !!unfinished!! Warning still applies.
Two finished works, but the story is not… conclusive? Concluded?
Deathstroke takes and trains Tim Drake.
Tim and Jason centric second story.
- cards on the table by mgootd
Holy COW have I mentioned I love Tim joins late fics because I LOVE Tim joins late fics.
Tim as a fortune teller, knowing the Wayne’s secrets but staying Out Of It™️. Drake turned street brat.
Tim, Jason, Steph are probably the biggest figures here.
Actually finished. It’s beautiful.
- Tim Drake’s Photo Album (series) by mgootd
My heart. This may be my favorite finished work. And yes, I WILL forever refer to Tim as “bug” now. Thank you, Jason.
I can’t wait to see what else gets added to this series!
- 1-800-GOTHAM by goldfishinabag
!!UNFINISHED!! But updating regularly.
Holy. Cow. This is beautiful. The personalities at play. The Batfam interactions. Yes. Please.
- The Drakes’ Spoiled Brat by @batfambrainrotbeloved / yellow_sprouts on AO3
!!UNFINISHED!! Updating regularly.
First off, this one. If you read none of the others, this one.
Thank you for leading me back into the ways of TRUE Batfam brainrot (*cough cough* beloved).
On the edge of my seat for the next chapter on this.
- Cor et Cerebrum by @audreycritter
All well over 600K words are straight up golden.
This is the one of the only OC heavy fics I’ve truly fallen for, and Kiran Devabhaktuni is such a MOOD.
The Batfam takes are PHENOMENAL. The interpersonal relationships, the trauma dealings, the whole thing. 10/10.
- Undercover and Undercover:Gotham by InvalidStuff
Batkids working together for each other. Every time. BatDad is STRONG. Cuteness overload. Fluff in the sense that punching someone for your siblings is the fluffiest feeling ever.
- Mama Bird (but its your big brother ready to fight god) by @batfambrainrotbeloved / yellow_sprouts on AO3
!!UNFINISHED!!
Batboys protecting batboys.
Disclaimer: Abusive Batman. (At least hyped on fear toxin, hinted at more regularly so far, but unsure.)
- How Rare and Beautiful It Is to Even Exist by popsummer

Cassie’s POV. Tim’s funeral.
I cry every time and have read it at least 4 times.
Update: I have now read the rest of the series and they all HURT but worth it.
Spoilers: he dies in the summer
Guess who wrote a poem about Kim dokja for an English assignment
Someone came up to me irl and straight up said that I have a John Constantine aesthetic and idk to feel insulted or flattered
Laws getting ready for Ides of March
