just your soul and a midnight touch by bytherosebushlaughing
Fandoms: Agatha All Along (TV)
03 Oct 2024
Tags
Summary
“A long time ago, I loved someone,” Rio begins, making eye contact with the rest of the coven. Agatha can feel her heart thundering in her chest at an accelerated rate. She already knows where this is going, but she’s frozen in place, unable to stop the words from continuing to come out of Rio’s mouth. “And I had to do something I did not want to do, even though it was my job. And it hurt them. She is my scar.” She feels her face burn at the implication, at the memory of what had ended things between them so abruptly all those years ago. The thoughts are dizzying over the reminder of that betrayal.
Or, Agatha and Rio share an intensely intimate moment after years of longing, grief, and pain have culminated between them (an extension/fix-it of Episode 4, if you will!)

Summary
He caught Dick's look at him from the corner of his eye. “He's still mad at me for kicking him out—twice—when,” and Dick floundered and sighed and that was remarkable in of itself. “When the other Roy Harper was here.”
“Oddly enough I did pick up on his irritation about that,” Roy said, because now every time Ollie saw Dick, he started up on it again.

Bookmarker's Notes
“Dick, if I thought you could handle it I would propose right now,” and he rolled them over, pinning Dick's hands against the bed. If Dick really wanted to leave, he still easily could. “I'm going to tell you I love you until you believe it. Then I want to marry you. It's been twenty years. I get it, okay? We've fucked up. We've done awful things together and separately, to other people and each other.”

Summary
“Jay Morgan, thirty years old, registered foster parent, approved for emergency placements.”
“…Foster parent?” Jason repeated, incredulous.
“Mr Thomas has been placed under your care effective immediately,” Laura continued, flipping a page. “Temporary arrangement pending review. I’ll be conducting regular home visits, both scheduled and unscheduled, so I strongly advise you to ensure the premises remain suitable.”
She stepped forward. Close enough that Jason had to shift back a half-step or get bowled over entirely by this woman who was at least two heads shorter than him, and in doing so, she brought the kid—Duke—with her.
“Hey—no, hold on a second—”
OR:With Batman gone, Gotham is falling apart. But Jason has bigger problems. Like this kid who just got dumped on his doorstep due to a case of mistaken identity. What was his name again? Oh yeah. Duke Thomas.
(Shut up Tim! Jason did not have Bruce's adoption disease!)

“You’re not making any sense, bud. Come on, loop me in, here. What’s going on?”
Tim laughs. It’s a jaded sound, bitter and flat, but it morphs at the end into something closer to delirious. It doesn't sound anything like him. Something is wrong with Tim. “Loop. That’s the problem. Over and over and over and over and over and---- --

This isn't about forever, Mei. It's about now. This moment. These feelings.” Her fingers curled slightly, still waiting, still patient. “Don't humans have a saying? 'Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all?'“

“I’m kidding. I don’t think you’re that crazy. You’re gonna do great. If you end up at Gotham U and have doctor Iverson for English, you can’t kill him.”
Bao gasped with dramatic offense. “Bro, I’m not--I wouldn’t--”
“I wanted to. So bad. I passed him on my bike one day and there may have been a villainous intrusive thought--”
“Ooooh, you were so close to being cool. RIP.”
“Fuck you, I’m the shit.”

Summary
Dick and Bruce are like this:
Not the sun and moon, a love devastated by circumstance, a story of light and gravity, but a different beast altogether. A nucleus fissuring into two, borne of the same energy, the same matter, the same decay.Their story has always been radioactive.
A canon-divergent take on Dick's return after Spyral featuring debilitating self-loathing and guilt, interspersed with the ordeal of being unmasked, and the subsequent waning sense of personhood.

Bookmarker's Notes
“You know why. You’re Dick Grayson and I’m Donna Troy.”
“I don’t even know who that is. How could you?”
“Dick, I’ve known you in a hundred universes and lifetimes; and there hasn’t been a single one where I haven’t loved you.”
He doesn’t think he could hold back his tears even if he tried. He’s not seventeen anymore; he’d long since decided to live with the pain of being Dick Grayson when you love a person like Bruce Wayne.

nothing would be beautiful by mishencockles

Summary
A life changing injury pushes Dick off the deep end. Going on his farewell tour, before he closes the curtain on his life for good, Roy comes along for the ride of a lifetime.
It’s better, after all, to go out in a blaze of glory, than to simply fade away.
OR: After the events of Batman v1 #408, Dick loses the use of his arm, and Robin, in one fell swoop. Meanwhile, Ollie’s left for good, and Roy’s in a downward spiral of his own.
In other words, Dick heads to Atlantic City, ‘’with Bruce’s credit card in one pocket, and Roy in the other.’’

Summary
For some reason, thinking of an ouroboros; the snake devouring its own tail, biting down and swallowing until it's consumed itself entirely.
''What do you want, Dick? I mean, what do you really want?''
You decide to tell the truth, not sure why and refusing to look at him.
''I want to believe it’s not too late.''
*
Roy starts getting kind of serious with some other guy. Dick tries his hand at unsafe, casual sex with strangers. Totally unrelated, of course.
OR: Part jeaoulsy fic, but mostly an exploration of Dick's psychosexual issues.

On your knees, your head pressed to the floor, curled up before her. She, in turn, sat in your armchair like a throne, looking down at you while you beg and beg and beg.
Are you sorry?
I am. I’m sorry, I’m so, so sorry— Forgive me, forgive me, forgive me. Please, please forgive me—
She never asks you what you’re sorry for. Even if she did, you wouldn’t have an answer.

Summary
‘’You know the Mad Hatter?’’
An involuntary shiver runs up Roy’s spine.
‘’Jarvis Tetch? Short little freak with a hard-on for Alice in Wonderland? Yeah, Wings' mentioned him, once or twice. Dabbles in mind control. Gives me the creeps.’’
‘’Well, back in the day he built this thing called the Dream Machine, trapped its victim in a kind of dream world. It seems someone found the blueprint. Spruced it up a bit.’’
A cold feeling settles in Roy’s stomach.
‘’You’re saying…’’
‘’You’re looking at the Dream Machine 2.0.’’

Or: Dick is dreaming and Roy needs to get him out. He learns a lot of things along the way, things Dick would've preferred to keep buried.

Bookmarker's Notes
Donna smoothed his hair back from his forehead. Wow, Dick loved her, loved her, missed her. She tapped a small remote on the bedstand--some kind of pager. “And hopped up on medication, but even that’s not enough, hmm?”
“So I’m concussed... and high.”
“Understatement of the century,” said Garth, materializing a few feet away. Roy shouldered him aside and approached the bed, his grin bright in the artificial glow of the nearby Batcomputer.
Dick squinted in mock suspicion. “Where have you all... been hiding?”
“Caves. Around. Y’know, if someone got lost in here and starved to death, I’d believe it,” Roy said, nodding at Donna. “How’re my Double D’s?”
Dick and Donna groaned. “One more intact than the other,” Donna said.

He’d never be Speedy again, and Dick would never be Robin again, and maybe that meant Dick would never be Speedy’s Robin again, and Roy would never be Robin’s Speedy again--past selves that belonged with other past selves--and maybe that meant Arsenal’s Nightwing wouldn’t come back, and Dick would never belong with Roy again.

“Something has spoken to me in the night...and told me that I shall die, I know not where. Saying: "[Death is] to lose the earth you know for greater knowing; to lose the life you have, for greater life; to leave the friends you loved, for greater loving; to find a land more kind than home, more large than earth.”
