cough I've been thinking.

ginzai posted a link to a Devin Grayson interview, and That Picture had me thinking about Deathstroke and Dick and how they relate to each other. And then I started thinking about Dick and romance and the people I ship him with ( Read more... )

batverse, comics, meta, slade/dick

Hey! I didn't realize there *were* several comicsverse Sllade/Nightwing stories out there. But, yes, there should be more.

I like your meta. *and* I agree with it. I think Dick is passionate about Barbara, but I think to make it work might well take more than he can do and probably more than she will. But I digress.

When I landed in this fandom I ended up surprising myself with Dick/Tim, which is my favorite pairing (I'm not a person who *does* OTPs or favorite pairings, so I'm pretty stunned.) And yeah, the very first impetus would have to come from Tim, I think; until Tim made a sexual sort of move, Dick would think of his affection for Tim as brotherly (I think it's actually more complicated than that, or I couldn't write them the way I do, but then Dick's fatherly relationship is complicated with sexual threads tangled into it, whether or not Bruce and Dick actually slept together at any time, and so's his friendship with Roy, so why shouldn't his brotherly relationship be?) Which is why I wrote "Inkblots", which is set in a moment of canon where Dick and Tim feel like they're losing both Bruce and each other.

As for Deathstroke/Nightwing --- oh, you pulled out the same bits of that interview that made me scream and scribble frantically. Oooh, yes. I hope I can do these ideas justice in my story, and I'll be thinking of them as I polish it.

Thank you! I'm very brand new to this fandom, but I was reading some of Te's Dick meta and I saw That Picture and then I talked to ginzai...*helpless shrug* I'm glad you thought it made sense.

Oooh. I liked Inkblots. ginzai requested a fic that matched what I was talking about with them; that's the one I was planning to mention.

Yay!
I'll mostly be focusing on the touch-sexual aspects for my current one, since it's PWP, but I can't wait to see what you do with them.

*blush* You liked "Inkblots" that much? Gosh, thank you. :)

Whee fic. How's yours coming? Mine is nearly ready for a beta, I think.

You're welcome.

They aren't cooperating. Yami and Maya helped me get through one time of being stuck, but now it's stalled again.
I'm pleased yours is almost done.
