Peter Exhausted, Lifting Reps With Dick Spotting And Jason Coaching:

i could never see lunarry as a rarepair like IT’S RIGHY THERE!!!!!! OPEN YOUR EYES PEOPLE!!!!!

no speak up ive been thinking about them so much again….

In my mind Peter treats Bruce like they’re that one 40 y/o + 20 something y/o coworker duo in every corporate office

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

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

HC: Peter Parker is a functioning alcoholic

But it’s subtle enough at first that no one really says anything. Like yeah he day drinks - but it was just brunch! And beers/mimosas are half off

:(( Everyone ordered drinks.

And there’s nothing wrong with having a cold beer after studying. Or a few. After missions is just a standard at this point. And some nights in require a little something to take the edge off - even if he just finished a six pack on his own.

Don’t even start with the liquor pen either - it was a joke. The gala was boringgggg it made things fun! And sure, no one under 40 really carries a flask…but it was a souvenir! Jason got it for him.

It’s not until Roy kind of points it out one morning that Dick even considers the idea at all.

Because surely not. Peter’s never been…and he’s never seen him blackout…a lot..but with his metabolism the guy burns through it a lot quicker than most…and it would take a lot to even keep him drun- oh god. He really is an alcoholic.

The intervention that followed wasn’t supposed to be dramatic. But if they really wanted that they definitely shouldn’t have invited Jason - who, unbeknownst to everyone, took it upon himself to hire PROFESSIONAL MOURNERS to cry and beg Peter not to ruin his life 😭

And then they played the alcohol awareness PSA video that Damian and Tim made?? But it was pretty clear they were bickering over the script in between cuts because Alfred drops the camera at one point to break them up 😭😭

Wally actually had no idea what they were supposed to be intervening (chronic gc ignorer) so he just made a sign that said ‘stop!!’ in hopes that no one would notice while he tried to gauge what the issue actually was (Artemis wouldn’t stop laughing which did nawtt help his case LMAO)

In the end Peter agreed to attend a few AA meetings and sober up at the request that Jason join him (Dick’s incessant invitation suddenly makes a whole lot of sense...but there’s nothing he can really do about it now)

Some thoughts that my fanfic generated 💔 I promise I’m working on chapter 11 omgod

Mentally still here

This implication that Jason always wanted siblings lives in my head rent free

Red Hood: Outlaw #32

Would anyone be interested in beta reading my Peter Parker x Gotham fic?

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.

those first 22 issues i read last night were enough to make me want to draw him ngl

I know for a FACT he wouldn’t have ended up as a glorified wizard cop if they were together but alas

The potential of Luna and Harry is beyond just Luna being another female character that Harry was close with. She challenges him and makes him question the things he so easily accepted as reality, while still encouraging him to stay true to his own beliefs. He grounds her and gives her an anchor to hold on to without constricting her or trapping her in expectations.

She's weird and she ruins his street cred at Hogwarts but he doesn't care because she's one of the only people who wants him as Harry and not as Harry Potter. At a time where the only thing the Wizarding World is giving him is more grief, more loss, more pain, she reminds him of the magic he felt in his first year.

She is his ticket to staying in the Wizarding World. Not just as someone who has settled into the world and the role people expect of him, but as someone who wants to continue changing it. She is his period of Enlightenment. It's literally poetic. Shut up.

Toddler Damian who goes entirely silent around Peter and hides behind Bruce or Dick’s leg whenever Peter’s in his spidersuit

So Peter thinks he doesn’t recognise him - despite the fact that Dami asks about Peter between visits and wonders why he isn’t around.

Until Dick sends him this video:

[cameraman Dick trying to stifle his laugh, steps into the batcave and slowly approaches a crouching Damian]

Dick: (leaning in) Whachya doing over there Damian?

Damian: talking to peta

Dick: huh? where-?

[Damian, entirely too nonchalantly, turns around with a huge fucking tarantula in his hand]

Damian: See. Peta.

[tarantula scurries]

Dick: DAMIAJNDOENESAAAAHHHHHHHH

[the phone drops - the video cuts mid scream]

The accompanying text: it’s still on the loose pls help 😭

This was my Luke if anybody cares

Bonus points if you recognise him too 🤭

I literally though he and the movie actor were the same person and like Annabeth I get it - if he looked like that you couldn’t convince me of nish
