Master List Previous

Damian had to wait until the end of his school day until he got an update from Marinette. He had seen the live stream, that was until they dropped the camera and ran for their life, seeing as they finally realized how dangerous it was to stay out.

At around two in his time, eight in hers, she had called him. Damian was in the library, scrolling through Marinette’s Instagram for what seemed like the hundredth time when he got it. With his earphones already in his ears, he just answered the call. “Mari?” Damian questioned.

“Oh hey.” Marinette called out, yawning afterwards. Marinette’s eyes weren’t fully opened, and she kept blinking, like she was trying to blink away her sleep. “Sorry for not calling you sooner. I had fallen asleep and just woke up five minutes ago.” Marinette told him. “Which reminds me, I need to go get my dinner. Be right back.” Marinette told him, before rushing off the screen.

Damian stared at where the girl was previously at. After hearing that she was just napping, he wondered what caused her to fall asleep after an akuma that could have, and may possibly have killed her. After looking at past livestreams, it wasn’t everyday that an akuma could have killed them.

Marinette came back on screen with a plate of food, setting it down off screen. “To put it shortly, there was an akuma that exploded everything in their way. Apparently, their science project blew up in their face, literally, and they exploded everything and anything.” Marinette explained. In between sentences, she would take a bit of food, feeding her upset stomach.

“Mari, how do you just sleep through something life threatening?” Damian asked. A rare sight of emotion, concern, appeared on the teen’s face, generally curious in what she would say to it.

“I don’t know. I was just burned out after school and fell asleep.” Marinette answered. Suddenly, her eyes shot wide. “I didn’t do my homework! Ms. Mendelev is gonna kill me!” Marinette got up from where she was sleeping, any signs of sleep were gone, and she was frantically searching her room for her backpack.

Damian, on his side of the phone, was silently chuckling at the sight of her quickly searching her room. “Found it.” Marinette called out. Seeing the backpack in front of her, she breathed out a sigh of relief. Taking a step forward, she forgot about her clumsiness and tripped over her own food, landing face first on the ground. Damian stopped his chuckling and looked at her.

“I’m alright.” Marinette’s muffled voice answered his unspoken question. Getting up like nothing happened, gracefully, she picked up the piece of paper and sat back down to where she was originally. “Do you know pre-calculus?” After getting a nod in return, she smiled brightly. “Can you help me? I don’t completely understand it?”

********

~One month ago~

Gotham; 8:00, Sunday

Damian knocked on his father’s door, a paper in hand. The paper was something from his school that needed (wanted) signed.

After hearing a gruff ‘come in’, he opened the door, closing it behind him. Sitting down in one of the arm chairs in the office, he gave his father the paper.

There was a moment of silence between the two, with his father reading the sheet of paper. But it was when he finished, he looked at his biological son as if to ask if he was joking.

“Are you aware of the reason why you were put into school?” Bruce asked the teenager. Damian nodded, knowing his father’s response. “Then why did you hand me this?”

“The school thinks I’m better off not wasting my time in the classroom, seeing as I don’t learn anything, and I agree with them for once.” His father gave his signature glare at him, his argument not convincing him. “I also have someone I talk to, seeing as my class assigned me to talk to them. It’s the only reason I’m still in my writing class.” Damian continued.

Bruce raised an eyebrow. “Really.”

“I have no reason to lie father.” Damian answered. “Plus, I find it enjoyable to talk to them.”

Bruce sighed, and pinched the bridge of his nose. “I’ll sign it, but I want to meet this friend of yours.”

Damian nodded. He stood up from the seat he was sitting on, and left the office, knowing he would get it back after patrol, signed.

********

His father’s words were repeating in his head. He knew that his father wanted to meet this friend of his, (was she even his friend?) but he didn’t know if Marinette would be up for it. And even if she was, how would she even meet his father? He knew that she was halfway across the world, so his father might be suspicious if he gave him a computer screen to chat with her.

Their call had just ended with him going home, and with her doing whatever she does after their calls. He knows he should have asked her the moment he saw her, but he was more concerned about how she was after the attack that happened. (What was this girl doing to him?)

He was so into his thoughts, that he didn’t notice that they had made it back to manor. When he realized, with Alfred calling his name and telling him, he went straight to his room. He didn’t realize that his brothers, even Todd and Grayson, who all had their own places and normally didn’t stay there, were out there in one of the many living rooms in the big house.

Making it into his room, he shut and locked his door. Damian set his stuff down where they belonged in his room, and sat on his bed. When he noticed that Titus was in the middle of his bed, he sighed and went towards the desk in his room. Turning on the computer, he realized that he didn’t have anything to do, but the only thing that was on his mind was to message or talk to Marinette.

Taking his phone out of his pocket, he went to instagram and went to see if there was anything there that would take his mind off of her, but that failed when it showed that she was online.

Knowing that this was going to be on his mind for the longest time, he decided to avoid the unavoidable and message her, though using his private account so that it was less likely for someone to see.

-----------

When the call ended because Damian had to go back home, Marinette realized that she wasn’t tired, because she had just taken a four hour long nap. The sun was already gone, the moon out and shining, so that eliminates any options to go out at night. Except patrol, but she wasn’t in the right mood for it.

After putting her dish away from her dinner, she went on her computer in her room and went through instagram. She saw the many notifications from her MDC account, so she went to that one and read the many comments she had gotten from it.

‘Did you see her following count go up!’

‘Her and the ice prince are mutuals?’

‘Why is she following Damian Wayne? She doesn’t follow anyone else really?’

Marinette giggled at those, and liked the ones that were related to the fact that her and Damian had followed one another.

‘It’s obvious that she only followed Damian Wayne because she likes him. But he’s already taken by Lila.’

Rolling her eyes, and deleting the comment, she noticed the notification coming from her personal account. Switching the account she was on, she noticed she had gotten a message from Damian. Did he forget to tell her something from the call they were previously on?

thebloodson: My father wishes to meet you.

me: ok

me: u do see the problem with that right

thebloodson: Yes, obviously. I informed you so that we can come up with a way to have my father meet you.

me: we could just video chat

me: or you could just say that i dont live in gotham

thebloodson: Perhaps

——————

Due to him texting Marinette, his brothers were soon off his mind. So he didn’t notice any of their shadows outside of his bedroom door.

“Anyone wanna bet he’s in love?” His eldest brother commented.

Maribat Recommendations no one asked for!

Batcat by Spectral_Aspen

A series based around Marinette who takes the physical form of a cat who has magic. We get to see adoptive dad Jason as well as some really good in character interaction between the batboys and between the rest of the Batfamily. [Collection of one-shots, so the series is incomplete but the actual works are complete]

Paris vs Gotham by @blueteehood

Another series, but not a long one at all. It's a twitter fic, and one done very well. We get a very typical Maribat plot, but done from a completely different angle in a very interesting way executed perfectly. [Complete]

A Ladybug in Smallville by @unmaskedagain

unmaskedagain Is possibly the best Maribat author, having multiple great Miraculous crossovers works even outside of MLB x DC that I would highly recommend. In this, we basically see the typical Lila pushes too far and gets Marinette gets kicked out and sent to America, but instead of to Gotham she is sent to Smallville to live with the Kent's. Three parts and a masterpiece. [Complete]

Marinette vs. Santa by @unmaskedagain

Another work by them, your typical Biodad! Bruce Wayne, it's not troupy at all and does a good job I think of doing a sibling relationship and a good job of Marinette entering the celebrity spotlight. Really cool take and perspective. [Complete]

Daddy's Little Villain by @unmaskedagain

What can I say, they are a good writer. Villain!Marinette done right never felt fake or forced like a lot of Villain!Marinette fics do. It is centered in the Young Justice Cartoon universe so if you haven't watched the cartoon (which you should because it's amazing) you may be confused on some bits, but I don't think it matters considering that so many people come into this fandom with little to no DC knowledge and do fine. [Complete]

Con Man's Daughter by @arty-shadow-morningstar

Brilliant. Amazing. Show-stopping, and whatever else Lady Gaga said in that one interview that turned into a meme. Biodad! John Constantine, completely original and just brilliant. They do this thing where every part they add half of it is like a flashback to when Marinette is little and it's a really cute story, and the other half is current day Marinette and her adventures with some friends and working under her dad (some Daminette is sprinkled in). It is completely troupe-free and I honestly wish their stuff would become troupes so I could read more stuff like it. [I'm pretty sure it's incomplete but I may be wrong (@arty-shadow-morningstar please post more this is like my favorite fic)]

@jaydoplayz 's works

There are a few, all twitter fics (if you can't tell I like social media fics). They are all really cool and give a fresh, really interesting perspective, and keep a really nice dynamic between the Batfamily, and keep them in character. 10/10 would read again (I literally do, all the time)

---

Those are a few of my favorites, if y'all need more recs (I know no one asked me specifically but someone always needs recs) put it in my asks box and I'll put more. But like you could always check out my fic... please check out my fic I need the validation... and I hope you enjoy these fics as much as I have loved them!

loki: thor u absolute ho

A concept: Asgardian men do not show skin (A slightly cracktastic take, mostly from the POV of Loki)

A concept: Asgardian men do not show skin (A slightly cracktastic take, mostly from the POV of Loki)

A concept: Asgardian men do not show skin (A slightly cracktastic take, mostly from the POV of Loki)

A concept: Asgardian men do not show skin (A slightly cracktastic take, mostly from the POV of Loki)

Asgardian men wear full body armour, and will not be seen without a full body armour or a fully covering clothing set when they’re in public or receiving guests at home.

With the manner in which Asgardian men insist on covering their bodies (except maybe arms), one could say that Asgardian men never show their ankles as well. Like Victorian era ladies. It’s scandalous for an honourable Asgardian man to be seen in public in less than 4 layers of clothing, or with his legs or feet showing. Arm exposure is kind of allowed but frowned upon. It’s wholly not allowed in times of official ceremonies or celebrations.

They may only show their hands. So that any interested party may asses how capable they are before approaching them.

Well-groomed hands = good boi.

Asgardian women, on the other hand, can expose skin, no issue.

But men? *LE GASP*

Notice how Thor usually covers his arms when in Asgard. But on Midgard he exposes them fully. Like a ho.

Loki always covers up, like a man of high breeding. He even wears gloves sometimes.

On Midgard (say post Avengers AU? I like everyone alive tyvm), Loki is horrified to see that men expose their bodies so much. He almost goes into shock.

Thor takes him out to shop, as he’s now touted as the expert in all things Midgardian. Loki criticises all these shops Thor frequents for the scraps that he calls clothes. No wonder he looks like homeless man in his Midgardian garb.

SUCH TRAVESTY!

Loki asks them (shops) about bespoke tailoring and they refuse. THEY REFUSE? HOW DARE!

Loki is not happy. He curses these shops and their ancestors to Helheim and comes home without a single item bought. They had things in his size, but not in his taste. An enormous mistake.

All through the way back home Thor can be heard uttering long-suffering sighs, as if he’s holier than Loki.

No, Thor is one of those utterly shameless people who love to show off their bodies. He kept the tendency to show off at bare minimum in Asgard, owing to the social norms, but on Midgard, he has completely lost himself to this blatant mockery of their culture. What a ho ho ho.

Loki never forgets to slut shame Thor when he so unashamedly exposes his feet in the Avengers tower or when he’s receiving guests, wearing that godforsaken footwear called flip-flops!

BY THE NORNS!

Thor tries to defend himself. Tries…

Thor: I’m on Midgard! I can wear what I want! Show more skin, be more comfortable, sweet Valhalla!

Loki: You no good hussy! I’m telling mother!

Thor: I’m not even showing my whole feet!

Loki: No one will agree to court you in Asgard! They’d have to get you a bride from Muspelheim maybe.

Thor: As if you received any visitations from anyone! Your dance card was nearly empty last time we had a celebration!

Loki: It was out of choice! I was spying on a group of diplomats!

Thor: How come I didn’t know?

Loki: Because you’re not good at subterfuge, you oaf!

Thor: You’re just covering up for bad performance at receiving courtship!

Loki: Even if I am, you’re still a hussy! Showing off your feet and arms as if it’s not a bother to other.

Thor: It is NOT!

Loki: My eyes burn from the sight of your ungainly limbs! What is next? Uncovering your chest? Thighs? The whole sickening body of yours!

Thor: Meanwhile you keep sweating under all that armour or ten layers of leather.

Loki: I DON’T SWEAT!

[AN INTENSE SCUFFLE HAPPENS, WHERE NEARLY ALL THE FURNITURE OF THE COMMON ROOM IS DESTROYED, WHILE THE OTHER AVENGERS JUST WATCH, DUMBFOUNDED]

[NOT TONY STARK, THOUGH, HE’S SITTING IN A CORNER, NURSING A DRINK AND CURSING HIMSELF FOR ALLOWING THESE WEIRDOS IN THE TOWER]

(This is what comes out of my brain when I have to work on academic papers and can’t work on my fanfictions. Hence, I’m going to make everyone suffer with me by posting this nonsense. Some of you have already seen a rough version of this. Poor Souls.)
