*yawn* hi. Batman!

[themeletor]

This, I wrote on the Metra on the way back from Chicago. Some dude kept giving me funny looks, so I made it look like I was writing about him (you know, where you look at the person, kinda tut, write, still looking at them...) -- it was fun.

It is only a little, general-audiences drabble, the first in what will hopefully be a decently-sized lineup of semi(or fully)psychotic Batfic, though that cannot happen until I have binged given myself a refresher course on my Batman quasifangirlness.

Anyway, it's early, and I'm sure that all didn't make the least bit of sense. So.


That which a man fears, he comes to know intimately. He learns the way it moves, that he can dodge its approach. He studies its sound: its cry, its accidentals – even in the dark, he knows it. He knows what lures it; he knows what will send it away. He has watched it, fascinated by the pure cold power it has over him, immobilized by the vivid horrors his mind’s eye cannot stop creating. Given time, a man will know the object of his fear better than he knows his love, his family, his home, himself.

And so the Bat-Man.

It is also my ticket to allow myself to read the Flist-Haunting Lurk Zone wayne_crane. Finally.

1. Thank you! Well, I wouldn't worry about that -- as soon as I finished writing, Crane popped up and went "hey! I said that!" ...and I said "hey! shut up! you get your own later!" ...but still.

2. <3 Chicago.

3. Mmm, mmhm. I still haven't read much there, because while I don't mind suspecting that I'm being unoriginal, I hate actually knowing it for sure. So until I get my current crop of ficishness out (2 more in the vein of "Fascination"), I can't bring myself to discover that I'm really not that clever after all.

...does that make any sense? No.

ANYWAY -- there's serious love here for both Wayne and Crane, but Crane is SO prettier. And often edges toward my favorite.

We all know just how clever you are. Besides, there was a post, not too long ago, about all possible cliches for the pairing.. And it was, generally, agreed on that it's still much too early in the pairings' existence for anything to be unoriginal. You still have time to set the bar.

Oh, and I should probably tell you.. They all have an unnatural obsession with toasters... (at wayne_crane)

Mmmm.. insane/brilliant/evil doctor.. I just always have a thing for the bad guy. And those eyes!

yeah what's with the toaster thing anyway?

[ima-pseudonym.livejournal.com]

I never could figure that out.. I guess it's just a fun thing to say.
Toooh-sterrr.
