thete1 did a fantastic and wrong and heartbreaking fic entitled, Catch Me Low. In it a fucked up, bitter, multiverse Jay found himself a universe that was, essentially, his own. The only difference was that this universe was aged to just a few months after its own Jay's death. Outsider!Jay proceeded to make himself at home.

I really recommend you read the fic, especially if you like Tim/Jay or Bruce/Jay. I wrote a tiny addendum, which you will find, along with many spoilers, after the cut.

Now I know that time is not only a forced march into the chasm of death, but can also bring joy and healing. At this time, next week, the election will be over. Thank you, merciful god.

Te: I read about that Graysons show!!!!
Te: I can't decide how I feel about it at *all*.
mildredmilton: I'm . . . going to go with 'happy' until they force me to be otherwise.
mildredmilton:Smallville Crossover, Y/Y?
Te: *ehehehehe* CLARK/DICK 4EVAH OMG
mildredmilton: Fuck that. LEX/DICK 4EVAH!
Te: *eyes cross*
Te: *goes there*
Te: *really, seriously, completely and utterly goes there*
Te: *melts. in. puddle.*
mildredmilton: Yessssssssssssssssssssssss.
mildredmilton: Oh, I am so glad I have someone to squee to.
mildredmilton: Pixie didn't seem much interested and Kat just flat-out *refused* to cast Jon Glover as Deathstroke.
Te: *BWAHAHAHAHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA* OMG
Te: THAT is Slade/Dick I would write
mildredmilton: I KNOW!
mildredmilton: WHY DO YOU THINK I WANT IT? ARTISTRY IN A CW SHOW?
mildredmilton: I WANT THE SWEET, SWEET FIC IT WOULD YIELD!
mildredmilton: I WANT IT LIKE OXYGEN!
Te: GOD. I'm tempted to write it right NOW
Te: FUCK CANON EARLY, says I
mildredmilton: *skreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees*
Te: And fuck it OFTEN
mildredmilton: YES!
mildredmilton: *coughs*
mildredmilton: Start with Jon Glover's hair dyed white. And a rockin' goatee. And muscles like he had in season four. And him sitting in the crowd, motionless as everyone oooooh and ahhhhhhs around him and that small, evil smile on his face as he watches Dick fly.
mildredmilton: *shudders* OH that's good squee.
Te: Oh my GAWD
Te: That's CRACK
Te: AND I HUFF IT WITH JOY
mildredmilton: Maybe Slade starts watching Dick move through the crowd. Maybe Dick is laughing and flirting with girls, boys, and runs right into GloverSlade and pauses, flustered, because his body usually *knows* when someone is there, and then looks at the man's eyes, his mouth . . .
Te: *nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnrrrrrrrrrrrrgh;lsjkd;kls;lks;lkd;lsksd*
Te: OMG I WANT TO GIVE SLOVER (OR GLADE) A DICKIE
mildredmilton: Dick's parents apologizing and Glade smiling, gripping Dick's father's hand and assessing its strength, kissing his mother's hand, putting both hands on Dick's shoulders and just slightly letting his fingers move over the muscles there. Making a *show* of it. "Looks like you could have done a lot a damage, son. Aren't I the lucky one?"
Te: *flibble* I. Oh LORD
Te: You have CREATED GLADE
Te: AND ALL IS WELL IN MY *UNIVERSE*

Every time this particular romance is on scans_daily, it gets an incredibly negative response. I don't get it.

Okay, I don't know anything about Tom Tresser that isn't on his wikipedia entry. His brother was brainwashed into killing his own friends and colleagues. He worked with the Suicide Squad. He's seems to have been killed many times, but he's always popped back to life. Pretty typical DC tortured-hero stuff.

In fact, he seems like a decent match. Okay, he's a little bland, since most of what he's been doing since I've met him is talking about how unworthy he is of Wondy and how much he admires her. And yes, my preferred match for Diana is Arthur. (Shut up. Think of the wedding.) From what I understand he was a bit of an obnoxious horndog pre-Gail, but I don't get what's so bad about him.

Anyone?
