If He's A Serial Killer, Then What's The Worst

“If he's a serial killer, then what's the worst

That could happen to a girl who's already hurt?

I’m already hurt!!’

“If he's as bad as they say, then I guess I'm cursed

Looking into his eyes, I think he's already hurt

He's already hurt”

Lance injured is so hot… UwU

Clex "Let me help."

“Let me help,” Clark says quietly, and gets a withering look for it. 

“In what possible world do you think I’d allow that?” Lex sneers disdainfully as he tugs the knot of his tie loose and starts rolling up his sleeves. “Not everything is your problem to solve, Boy Scout.” 

Clark can’t consider Lex a “problem”, necessarily, but that’s a problem in and of itself.

Everyone voting against Ra'sTim have no taste. NOTHING slaps as hard as the most dangerous man of earth being the one who believes you. Tim accepting Ra's' help because he's alone, he has nothing to lose, and yet in Ra's he finds someone who *believes* him, someone willing to help.

It's a game, sure, but both of them like to play. It's a dance, where the first one to show weakness won't fall to death, but rather, fall in love.

It's an exquisite flirting. Swords, fire and promises.

Plus, it's kinda poetic. The man who wants to live forever in love with the boy who wants to die.

propaganda:

An antagonistic relationship with mutual manipulation, grudging respect and occasional murder attempts. Hot older man trying to seduce a young sidekick to the dark side. The hilarity of Tim becoming Damian's step grandfather. I just think it's neat.

Saw this on Pinterest and immediately thought it gave off maiko vibes, so I just couldn't stop myself and did what I had to do😤

Bonus version: Mai with no buns, what do y'all think about her?🫣

Ra'sTim fic idea:

// Omegaverse, no capes AU:

So that cover of Damian playing soccer has me thinking about an AU where Tim and Ra's have never met before.... 👀

Tim is the omega child of Selina, who just started dating Bruce, Talia's ex husband. But Talia and Bruce are on good terms, and have given Damian a very nice childhood. Talia has been mainly supported by her dad, alpha Ra's, who has been a widow for over 20 years now and focused on his family ever since. While they're all aware Bruce is dating Selina, there has been no proper introduction whatsoever between the three families (the al Ghuls, the Waynes and the Kyles).

Until one day, during a soccer game, Damian's team wins. This ends on a party, which Talia and Ra's attend gladly, congratulating the 9yo pup on his discipline on the sport. Damian then introduces them to Jon, his best friend in the team, and Jon introduces Talia and Ra's to the couple that went to watch him in the game: Kon and Tim.

Kon and Tim aren't actually a couple, they are just very good friends since forever, and since Jon's parents are off the city, Tim agreed to make company to Kon and encourage little Jon so that the pup wouldn't feel left out. Kon is Jon's half older brother, child of Clark's previous marriage, and Kon really didn't want to be alone at Jon's game.

So, yeah, long story short: 9yo Jon points at Tim happily and says Tim is their neighbour, and that he likes Tim very much because he makes very good cookies. Tim giggles, shaking Talia's hand first and then promising Jon some cookies for winning the game. Damian asks if he can some too, and suddenly there's a whole conversation going on between all of them except Ra's. Ra's, whose brain just stopped working at the sight of such a pretty, mesmerizing omega.

He regains composure quickly, smirking with certain flirting when Tim turns to see him, blushed and ashamed. "I'm sorry, I didn't greet you!" Tim murmurs with a nervous smile, hurrying to take Ra's' hand. The alpha takes it, but rather than shake it, he dares to take it up his lips, giving a soft kiss to Tim's knuckles.

The omega gasps, cheeks red.

"Don't worry, Timothy. It's a pleasure to meet you."

The mutual interest doesn't go unperceived by anyone, but neither Talia nor Kon approve of it, and avoid letting the two love birds alone. In the end, Ra's has to go to extreme measures, and discretely give a note to Damian with his name and phone number, sending it to Tim via the pup's hands, who is easily bought with the promise of ice cream for dinner.

Tim and Ra's starts messaging each other, and for a few days that's all they do before Ra's asks him out on a date. But funnily enough, just the day before their agreed dinner, they run into each other at a park, Ra's babysitting Damian and Tim babysitting Jon again. The two pups go and play together, giving Ra's and Tim the perfect excuse to sit together under the shadow of the trees and talk for hours.

Anyway, I might write this properly later, but for now this is it. Of course this is followed by Ra's and Tim going out for a few weeks, having fun, kissing... Until Bruce has his engagement party to Selina, and Tim discovers the Damian pup Selina mentioned that Bruce had, is the same Damian that he just met. It's awkward, and it brings some tension to all the families, to the point both Ra's and Tim consider breaking up... But their love's stronger, and they decide to stay together even if it's difficult.

In the end it's funny. They laugh at life's coincidences, and Damian is their supporter number 1 (they bought the pup with sweets and toys). For the rest of their lives, they are very happy to have attended that children's soccer game.
