I remember starting my Young Justice x Peter Parker in Gotham fic thinking I can definitely finish this in a few months…guess who celebrated it’s one yr anniversary the other day 🤩
I’m kind of in the home stretch of its first arc and I’m looking for some insight from a readers pov regarding characterisation, tone of voice and general plot progression.
and it completely baffles Bruce bc ??? how’re you oversharing and simultaneously saying nothing at all
And the problem now is he gets war flashbacks from the stress inducing clusterfuck problems Peter offhandedly tells him about, so every so often he’ll cave and ask Dick about him when he’s not around (“that Peter…did he ever get that denied exam extension sorted?”)
But when he finally does see him it’s like the problem never mattered (“oh - what? I said that? Right no, I just emailed the tutor. But you know, that TA who slept with him said...”) until he mentions something crazy again and the cycle continues.
Basically - organised Bruce meeting Peter “there’s a lot of moving parts so I choose to keep track of none of them” Parker
Idk how often this connection has been made but raven and apple from ever after high are literally glinda and elphaba variants
This is especially hilarious if you consider annabeths old actress’s Miley Cyrus ass stare
Like who is she trying to possess omgod stop
Pjo headcanon:
Percy “does not and will not make eye contact while talking and is struggling to pay attention” Jackson
vs
Annabeth “making direct eye contact 24/7 even if no one’s talking and is constantly taking in information” Chase
By this scene I was exhausted like let them GO

This is a D.W quote from Arthur btw I just found the coincidence that her initials are the same as Damian’s waaaaay too funny
[Damian and Peter sketching on some rooftop]
Damian: what did you draw?
Peter: (flipping his sketch book) A dog. And he’s bored. What did you draw?
Damian: (sighing) A stick.
Peter: A stick??
Damian: A stick from the park where YOU PROMISED TO TAKE ME TODAY!!!
Do you have any Peter in Gotham fic recs please? I just started yours and it’s DELICIOUS 😋 I crave for more..
Hi there! Glad you found it :)
The one I personally enjoyed the most was Peter the Pizza guy by Irisen. I liked Peter’s exploration of Gotham a lot in that fic, it’s realistic and it’s pretty well written!
Thanks for giving my work a read and I hope you enjoy the rec as well x
As told through the stages of Damian’s life:
Toddler Damian who has to sit between Peter’s legs when he’s being babysat while Peter plays on his psp console so he doesn’t Wonder Off.
Toddler Damian who sees it as his god given right to bounce on Peter’s well made bed while he’s at school or work and eat his stashed lollies then lie that he never (the wrappers are peaking out of his fists)
Kid Damian who says hes not a baby and not tired when Peter asks only to knock out on the couch 20 minutes later
Kid Damian who quotes Peter’s opinions like scripture nonchalantly to his friends in middle school to seem cooler.
Kid Damian who makes unhinged animations on his DS Lite for mandatory viewing when his siblings get home
Kid Damian who doesn’t like lying but chooses to remain tactfully silent whenever Bruce notices Peter’s snuck out
(He leaves the window closest to the tree outside open so Peter can sneak in again)
Teenage Damian who moved into Peter’s bigger room in high school but kept some of the things he couldn’t take to college as older sibling lore
Teenage Damian who runs down the stairs to see a home-for-the-holidays Peter setting his bags down at the door and breaks into a smile rolls his eyes
Teenage Damian who ducks out of Peter’s head ruffles with an annoyed groan and weak protests to knock it off
Teenage Damian who’s kept the fliers to every student photography exhibition with Peter’s work in it that he’s ever been too
Teenage Damian who finds himself on a three way call with Jason and Peter after crashing his car for the first time because he snuck out earlier and he’s in sooooo much trouble now
They make a game plan while Jason spends the entire call ribbing him (he’s on repair duty)
Teenage Damian who ducks his head in weak embarrassment walking across the graduation stage as the familiar whoops from the crowd overshadow the announcement of his name to receive his high school diploma
———
This is early 2000s older sibling coded if anyone’s lived through that…experience 😭
If you’ve come this far, I’m writing a fanfic where Damian and Peter have a similar dynamic! Check it out if you like :)
New blog - want to write a lot this year, this is me trying <3 | Peter in Gotham fic
