So earlier today I asked tumblr for fic prompts, and
wrote a bunch of ficlets. The best ones are going here, for posterity, although I am also fond of
GALACTUS JUST NEEDS A FRIEND and
AQUAMAN'S OUTRAGEOUS TUMBLR POST.
Title: Under the mask
Fandom: DCU / Marvel
Prompt: Jason Todd + Deadpool + Bob, Agent of HYDRA
“This guy has totally stolen your - your thing!” Bob declared. “He always comes back from the dead! He’s an anti-hero! He- he talks a lot!”
Deadpool stared at the picture of a man with a red bucket on his head that Bob had produced. “Does his fanbase lovingly refer to him as a sociopath?” Deadpool asked.
“What?”
“What’s under the bucket?” Bob handed him another picture. “A mask? He wears a mask under his mask?”
“Ye- are you wiping away a tear?”
Deadpool sniffed. “This is the most beautiful thing that I’ve ever seen,” he choked out.
Title: Ladies' Night
Fandom: DCU
Prompt: So Barbara Gordon and Helena B. walk into a bar.
Babs’ and Helena’s deep, philosophical discussion on the naming of cocktails as a symbol of the patriarchy, and the need for more whisky in everything, was interrupted when Helena threw up on Babs’ shoes.
Title: The Youngest Brother
Fandom: DCU
Prompt: Damian meets Cassandra Cain :D
“Go, on, just try and hit me.”
“No.”
“I bet you’re just scared.”
“No.”
“You’re just jealous because he’s my real father.”
“No.”
“You’re just angry because I get more time with Brown than you do.”
“No.”
“Fine, I don’t even want to fight you. It was just a test.”

“That doesn’t count! I wasn’t ready!”
Title: Cones
Fandom: DCU
Prompt: Wonder Woman + Power Girl, ice cream cones.
Diana peered through the glass. “I’ll have… a mint ice cream, please,” she told the attendant. “And you, Kara?”
“Oh, chocolate, of course,” Kara laughed. “It’s always chocolate, as far as I’m concerned.”
Atlee made a note. Chocolate was clearly the most superior ice cream flavour.
