redrikki: Damian Wayne as Robin (Damian Wayne)
So, Thursday recs are a thing, apparently, and I have some recs for you.

1. Fic exchanges

[tumblr.com profile] ao3tagoftehday is hosting a charitable fic/art exchange for folks interested in helping immigrants in detention by donating to one of the several charities helping to bail them out. The post with the sign-up information can be found here.[tumblr.com profile] attackfish started the trend, offering to write 100 words of Avatar: the Last Airbender fic for every dollar donated to either Refugee and Immigrant Center for Education and Legal Services (RAICES) or Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS). As of now, I have signed up to write for [tumblr.com profile] ao3tagoftheday's exchange. I urge you to sign up, donate, or both.

2. Fic

[archiveofourown.org profile] fadesfanfic has been writing an amazing series around Damian Wayne and his introduction to the Bat family and they are so damn good.

Batman and Son Rewrite is what it says on the tin: a re-write of the Batman & Son comic in a way that makes both Damian and Bruce more sympathetic and consistent with their later characterization. All the Batfam feels.

Resurrection of Ra's Al Ghul One-Shots
picks up where the last story left off and covers the next Damian-centered arc in the comics and actually deals with the emotional fall out.

How to Make Something New is an on-going look at Damian, Dick, and Alfred struggling to figure each other out in the wake of Bruce's 'death.'

redrikki: Damian Wayne as Robin (Damian Wayne)
Title: Damian Wayne: Gotham's Youngest Man of Mystery
Fandom: Batman comics
Characters: Damian Wayne, Bruce Wayne, Titus the dog, Alfred the cat, Bat-Cow
Length: 1,120 words
Summary:
Despite being the son of one of Gotham's most prominent citizens, little is known about Damian Wayne. A Gotham Gazette reporter sits down with the family for an exclusive interview with the city's youngest man of mystery.

Notes: This was originally published in 2013 and has become one of my top 10 most popular stories. I'm pretty fond of it too. I love me some outside POV and unreliable narration, and having a story narrated by a reporter who's not in on the masquerade combines them both. Strangely enough, I did that again for a Star Wars story I wrote last year.

Anyhow, read it on AO3 or here )

A couple of exchanges went live yesterday, so now that I've had time to read them, I figured I'd share my favorites.

Hurt Comfort Exchange

I actually participated in this one! I can't show you mine yet because the authors are still a secret, but I got a really swell gift.

All Similar Sorrow - Gwen struggles during an anniversary. Peter can relate. (Spiderman: Into the Spider-verse)
Gwen and Peter bond over getting the alternate versions of their friends killed and its touching and cathartic.

Other stuff from the exchange you should check out includes:

Looking for My Happiness Now
- A mishap reverts Peter's body to his 16 year old self. But this story is about Gwen Stacy. (Spiderman: Into the Spiderverse) Another Gwen and Peter bond over getting the alternate versions of their friends killed story and I could literally read a million of them if they were all this good.

Dreaming of Yesterday - Vanya wakes up in her thirteen-year-old body after Five has time-traveled them as the world was ending. None of the others seem to have their adult memories, and being the only adult in a group of teenagers will give Vanya a new perspective on her siblings. (Umbrella Academy) Vanya gets her youth back and grows the hell up.

Wayback Exchange

I thought long and hard about signing up for this, but it came due at the same time as the Hurt Comfort Exchange, so I didn't. It was probably a good choice considering how hard I struggled to find the motivation to write anything in the last couple of months. Still, there was some really fun stuff in there. Here are my top three.

Be It Ever So Humble -"Can't be homesick when you're home," Kaylee says. The captain doesn't say anything, but from the proud look on his face, he agrees. "Maybe don't tell your Daddy that." (Firefly) Lovely character study of our favorite mechanic.

Makeshift League - It's good for them. That doesn't mean they are good at it. (DC Animated Universe: Timmverse) In which Bruce/Lois/Clark are an endearingly dysfunctional threesome.

A Mouse in the White House - The Brain has a plan to take over the world, starting with the Oval Office. But dealing with the 45th President might be harder than anticipated. (Pinky and the Brain) Blistering political satire featuring everyone's favorite lab rats and least favorite president.



redrikki: Anakin and Padme about to kiss (Anakin & Padme)

Hurt/Comfort Bingo, baby! I actually got bingo back on January 2nd, but this is me finally remembering to post the damn thing.
