Ok, so you know all those cross over fics where one of the bats is undercover as neal caffrey, right?
So the idea is El gets kidnapped by someone and it’s being live streamed to the fbi people and neal!tim says to peter something along the lines of “i can do something to save el, but you’re not going to like it, so I just need a yes or no. Do you trust me peter?” And peter takes a long moment before saying “ i trust you neal”
so tim is like “bet, ima step out to make a reallly quick phone call then ima be right back”. And tim calls jason and is like “ can you go rescue my friend please” and jason agrees cuz he’s not doing anything and is in the area, so like 20 minutes later the goddamm red hood shows up at whatever wearhouse or basement el is in and beats up her kiddnapers and looks into the camera and is like “ ive done my part baby bird, ill be sure to get what im owed” or some shit cuz he’s dramatic.
So obviously peter and el and the rest of the fbi people freak out cuz “holy shit thats the fucking red hood!!” and “neal what the fuck do you owe him???!!?”
and jason just wants tim to take a nap, eat a proper meal and watch all three legally blonde movies with him or some dumb brotherly bonding shit like that.
[Tristen propped himself up as the door handle rattled obnoxiously, his brief intrigue disappearing as he realised who was struggling with it. Oscar and Courtney were convinced this place was haunted, but he’d need some proof before jumping on that bandwagon]
Robin: Hi.
Tristen: Hey.
[Robin clambered beside Tristen, offering him a half-eaten lollipop; he politely declined]
Tristen: I’ve already brushed my teeth, buddy.. you keep it.
Robin: Okay.
Tristen: Isn’t it past your bedtime?
[Making himself comfortable, Robin completely ignored Tristen’s question, studying him intently instead]
Robin: Mama reads to me when I don’t feel good.
Tristen: Awh, that’s nice.
Robin: You’re sick like papa, aren’t you? But worser.
Tristen: Uh…
Robin: In here.
[Slightly dumbfounded, Tristen raised a brow as Robin pointed to his head. He didn’t think Oscar would’ve taught such a young child about addiction, not yet at least-.. but he must have said something]
Tristen: I guess so.. I’m alright though.
Oscar: I hope you knocked before waltzing on in here, mister.
Tristen: It’s okay.
[Oscar plonks himself beside Robin, stealing his lollipop; how villainous]
Oscar: Where’d you get this?
Robin: I found it.
Oscar: That’s nasty, pal.
Robin: You’s eating it too.
Oscar: ‘Cause I’m nasty-.. he’s not bothering you is he?
[Tristen shook his head, still wearing a slight look of bewilderment]
Oscar: What’s up?
Tristen: Erh.. he’s pretty smart, isn’t he?
Oscar: [snorts] Too smart.
Can someone please explain to me why there are 970 crossover fics between batman and white collar on ao3. What is the correlation?? Why is this such a phenomenon???? I had never even heard of this show but now I know like all of the main characters names just from fanfic descriptions. Please someone make it make sense.
“Jesus, kid, has no one taught you how to handle a gun?”
Peter’s back stiffened. Of all the stupid things his self-destructive CI could have said, that right there took the cake for peak stupidity. Never, and I mean never, make fun of the person pointing a gun at your fleshy organs.

Or five times Neal definitely shouldn't have known how to do that and one time it started to make more sense
My mom took me to see him once when I was a kid. We went down to the recording studio. I asked her to put me in my best trousers. We weren`r allowed in. I was saying to the bloke on the door, “You don`t understand. He`s my dad. He`s asked to see me.” In the end, their manager came down, and he took us into a side room, and he was having a go at mom, saying, “If this is about money, you have to go through lawyers, not pull a stunt like this.” At some point, I realized he hadn`t invited us. It was all mom. Rokeby did come down, though. Probably heard the shouting. I had snot all over my face `cause I`d been crying. I`m... wiping it off. I didn`t want to look like a whiny kid. I didn`t want to ruin it. Rokeby and mom were shouting at each other, and eventually... he did look at me. And he said, “This was a fucking accident.” I thought he meant the situation. Even after we left, I thought he was gonna find me and say, “Sorry about that. Having a bad day. Didn`t mean it.” I mean... I was wearing my best trousers. And that`s why I`ve never worn trousers again.
