There's something so fucking insane about realizing this is it for them. Not only Robotnik has no one, every single version of him has no one. He was created to be hated and alone. He was never meant to be liked by anyone let alone loved.
Stone doesn't exist. I'm getting fucked up just thinking about it – Robotnik finding out about all his other selves and...and there's no Stone? Who even is Stone? And how can movie!Robotnik explain? Who isn't Stone. He's always there, he is loyal, he is equal to a whole world to him, how can he explain that to the other Robotniks if they don't know what it's like? That feeling of being able to look over your shoulder and know someone is always going to be there; that someone cared about him selflessly – someone who patched him back together after every failure even when he thought he couldn't go lower.
Only movie!Robotnik has him, I'm INSANE. There is no comfort in "they will find each other in another universe, and try again" NO. This is it. Dr. Robotnik deserved to have someone be infinitely loyal to him, because he loved him, in one singular universe. IS ANYBODY LISTENING OHMYGOD.
A random idea that I'm not ever sure I'm going to pick up and finish. AU is that everyone lives in a movie genre and the universe if governed by the rules of that genre. Bruce, fed up with being a failed lover interest, starts to adopt kids from other genres.

"I don't get it," Dick says, standing at the top small set of stairs and looking down them. There's like six of them, hardly enough to actually call it a staircase. Dick could probably jump the full way down without hurting himself. It's definitely not a flight, just six steps to get from the raised dias of the bank's entry to the street. But Bruce is still hesitating at the top, staring at them like they are a snake curled up in the grass.
The man who had assigned himself Dick's father (He doesn't need a father. He doesn't have parents. His parents are dead. Killed. For eight years, their case has gone untouched as cold as their corpses. He needs to solve it. He needs to find the killer. He has to. He has to. He has to...) drags his eyes from the stairs to Dick.
"You live in a *rom com*," Dick practically spat the words. He had been growing to hate this saturated colour, plastic world. There were too many people. None of the streets were ever empty. Movements from the corners of his eyes that his brain screamed could be someone pulling a gun, someone reached for a knife, someone passing a drug off to another, was usually just a woman dressed in LuLulemon pulling her yappy dog along. It was maddening the way that his brain wasn't built for this. He saw people doing things and his mind screamed that it was clues! It was evidence! You need to investigate it! You need. You need. You need.
But he doesn't. Because he doesn't exist here. The Graysons don't exist here. No one has been killed in this city for over 100 years apparently. The worse crime in the paper had been when Miss Betty accidentally stole cupcakes because her and Joe's orders got mixed up. They were getting married now apparently.
Dick shook his head trying to dislodge the part of him that was screaming that he was missing a clue. He tried to focus on the present. Him. Bruce. Stairs.
"This is a romantic comedy," he repeated. "It's all about love, so what's the fucking worse thing that could happen on the stairs."
"*It seems I've fallen for you*," said Bruce suddenly, his voice so devoid of emotion it startles Dick. Dick's eyes snap up to meet the other man's eyes, but Bruce is still looking at the stairs.
"That's the part of the script," he continues, his voice blank. It's disconcerting. Dick has only heard him peppy or bubbly or other words that paint him as a happy-go-lucky dog. He's never heard... this. "I fall down the stairs and I... I break something. I lay there until she's suppose to rush in. She's supposed to be a nurse or a doctor or maybe just someone with first aid training. She's supposed to treat me until the ambulance comes and I'm supposed to say *'it seems I've fallen for you'*"
Bruce finally looks at Dick and he can't even describe what's in the man's eyes. It's... he would almost call it haunted. The same glint that he has when he stares in the mirror.
"I've broken my leg from falling down stairs 48 times. I've broken one of my ankles 53 times. My left arm 18 and my right 26. Three times it's been my collarbone. One time after two flights, it was my back. I was paralyzed from the neck down. I couldn’t move a damn finger, so I just laid there in pain until the clock hit midnight and everything reset. And that’s just the staircase falls. There’s also the open manholes, the broken railings, getting hit by a car, a couple of times where a bridge gave out from under me. Any of them will do as long as I end up hurt and on the ground."
Dick stared. Coldness washed through his veins, fixing him to the spot. For the first time since he got here, fear settled into the pit of his stomach. The only thing he could think to say was: "I thought that nothing went wrong here?"
Bruce gave a harsh laugh that seemed more fitting for Dick's genre. "Everything works out if you actually have someone who wants to love you. If your love interest isn't interested or she just doesn't bother to turn up... well, the universe keeps trying to correct itself even if that means you have to lay in a crumpled, bloody heap at the bottom of stairs for a few hours."
He... he didn't know what to say. Say that he was sorry? That Bruce didn't have anyone coming to love him?
He looked back at the stairs and saw them how Bruce saw them. He tried to figure out what to say, but Bruce just turned on his heel.
"Let's go find the wheelchair ramp."
(wings will look different the next time I’ll draw them, just didn’t feel like going into detail on them today. ) the designs are inspired from headcanons I’ve seen and thought would look nice together
I was wondering if your Lamb can climb walls like mountain goats? Would come in handy when prying on his followers. Or giving Nari a heart attack!
My Lamb can't but with help they would try to get past Mystic Seller, and instantly fail to no ones surprise

“One more dance?” “Of course. I wish for this waltz to never end.”
Inspired by @/miilkcandies beautiful sequence of art! I fell in love with the storytelling and paneling in that piece :) Please check it out if you haven't already!

Love the new pfp bestie (is it in reference to anything in particular?)
Oh yea, it's basically just Son Goku from DBGT and I wanted to use it as a placeholder till I find a better profile pic. But it also represents my current mood pretty good
Uh some other close contestants were these, I think they sum up my situation pretty well✌️😗 /silly /j (<kinda)
