Clone^2 Damian

If you really think about, Damian's situation in the clone^2 au is... kinda tragic? Especially in the early months of his arrival. Like,,, think about it. Damian has always known he was a clone of Damian Wayne, that he was a copy of the blood son. There was nothing 'original' about him, not even his name (of which at least Danny has that). He was just... a replacement. A disposable one, to boot.

And he knew that, to an extent, by the time he was six years old. he might not have been actively acknowledging it -- he's six years old -- but deep down he knew. And like, he's six years old. Every small child craves the love and affection of an adult, especially their parents, and even though he knew he was clone, I imagine he still considered - and still does consider, somewhat - Talia and Bruce as his mother and father. And I really doubt he was... getting it?

Now, I know Talia loves Damian, her son. At least in some interpretations she does, and in this au she does. But... a clone of her son? I'm not so certain if she would have the same affection for baby Dames as she would for Damian. I don't think she would treat him badly, but I don't think Talia would treat him warmly either. Kinda just, distant. Colder than she would have been with OG Damian.

And, I know I've mentioned Damian's arrival from Danny's point of view, and its kind of comical kind of insane from his perspective -- a little boy clone of Damian Wayne falls through a portal and immediately attacks him. That sounds like a bad joke.

But, if you think of this from Damian's point of view? It's like he just got dropped into a scary movie. Like, think about it. You're six years old, and suddenly a portal, as green and as swirling as your grandfather's pools, opens up beneath your feet and sucks you through.

After an intense bout of vertigo, you end up in a massive, urban city -- completely different from the rural mountain palace that you lived in for the last six years of your life, and in this city, you don't know any of the language. You don't know what anyone is saying, you can't read any of the signs - you are completely stranded, away from home.

And then, to make things worse, you're facing a figure with a terrifying mask and eyes as burning green as the portal you fell through. Of course Damian's first instinct, six years old, is to attack. He's terrified.

And this figure, he's not a good fighter, but he's fast, and he dodges you quickly. He grabs your sword with his hands, and tries to restrain you, saying something in a language you don't know. Naturally, Damian is just scared. He's six! He'd just be learning how to read if he was normal child going to school.

This figure halfway through the fight yanks off his mask -- he realizes you're scared -- and looking at you now, is a youthful version of your father. This is a clone of your dad, someone you have never met but, six years old, still wants to. Damian gets defensive. This is an imposter.

But this imposter eventually gets you home with him - and he's using his little box, his phone, to communicate with you through a mechanical voice speaking in arabic. and it's frustrating. The boy, the imposter, can say whatever to you just fine, but trying to talk back is a hassle and a half. He's six, he doesn't have that much patience.

He wants to go home.

And so he keeps trying to run away. He keeps trying to find out of this hellish concrete jungle, and he keeps getting lost. It's loud, and busy, and there are people talking to you and you don't understand them, and there are rules and signs you don't understand - Damian tries to cross the street and nearly gets hit by a car. He doesn't know how the road signs work, he was never taught. They didn't get to that.

And he gets lost. And it gets dark, and Damian is brave, but he is six, and this is the worst stress he's been under in all his six years of life. He wants, desperately more than anything, to go home. Why wouldn't he? The only stable... semi-stable environment he was in just got ripped out from under his feet, literally! He wants his mother.

And it's not happening.

But there's something good to be said, at least. The imposter that looks like his father always comes and finds him, no matter what. He could have left that morning, and he will find Damian at midnight, frazzled and worried, and carrying an extra jacket with him because it is cold in Amity Park and Damian is six years old.

And sometimes Damian attacks him - he's scared and stressed and he doesn't want to be here. And every time he catches the sword. Even though Damian can see it cut into his hand and pearls of blood well up and stains his fingers. Even though Damian can see him wince in pain and bite his lip, he still catches it.

But with that little box, he coaxes Damian to come back with him. It's cold, it's dark, Amity Park is unsafe at night. They can figure something out tomorrow, please. And every time, he agrees, reluctantly. And the imposter takes the extra jacket he brought with -- a flannel, a hoodie, a jacket -- and he wraps it around him. It's warm, Damian's clothes are not that thick, and even though he thinks he might hate this imposter, he still sticks close to his legs as he leads him down the street.

And sometimes the imposter carries him, because Damian's shoes are not that thick, and he cuts his foot on broken glass while they're walking home. The imposter sits in the bathroom with him and carefully cleans the cut out, and makes sure it doesn't get infected.

There's hope you know, he still has it. His mother will be looking for him. She'll be worried. He's important to them. Damian may not be the original, but he is still a blood son. He is still her son. She will come find him. This nightmare will end soon. He can go home.

And then weeks pass, and nothing. Then months, and nothing. His family is not coming for him, and it hurts. Hurts more than anything. And yet while that happens, the boy he's attacked, and hurt, teaches himself arabic in order to speak to him. He takes Damian out of the house one afternoon and buys him new clothes, or tries to. And then he keeps buying him new clothes. He gives him blankets and gives up his bed to him until they can get him one himself, and steadily he teaches Damian english.

This boy is kind. Kinder than Damian's ever experienced, and he doesn't know what to do with it. He's devastated by the fact that he is not as important to his family as his family is to him. What do you do when you're six years old and you learn something like that? When a random stranger who looks like your father is kinder to you, and cares more about you than your family did?

And then Damian tells him he's a clone. He's Damian Wayne's clone, and he tells him his purpose - that their grandfather made him to kill him. And the boy, the imposter, Damian thinks he probably already knows that he's a clone. But he doesn't say that. He just nods, and asks him if he wants to tell his original about him.

Damian says no. He doesn't want to. He's tired of living in the shadow of his original. He wants to keep this to himself. This is his. For once, all of this is his.

And to his surprise, the imposter doesn't try and convince him otherwise. He just nods, and says okay. And when Damian asks why, the imposter - his brother - looks at him and says.

"I don't care about Damian Wayne. I care about you." And in Damian's gobsmacked silence, his brother continues. He tells him that if Damian doesn't want to tell his original that he exists, then they don't need to. They don't need to worry about the LoA going after him, because clearly if his 'grandfather' needs to make a clone of Damian in order to take him out, then whatever it was that Damian Wayne was doing to keep himself safe, was working.

"Wayne already has people in his corner, he's got Gotham's army of vigilantes to keep himself safe." his brother says with his eyes as blue as moonlight. "You, however. Do not." And he continues, and says that if Damian Wayne has the same training as Damian does, then he will be fine. He doesn't need to be aware of his clone. Because if DW doesn't know about Damian, then the LoA doesn't either.

And here's the thing. Damian would not have survived in the LoA for long. Not as a clone. No matter what, he was going to die no matter what he did, and sooner rather than later. The sword of Damocles was always hanging above his head in the League of Assassins.

That portal, and meeting Danny, saved his life. There's no way around it. And to an extent Damian knows this even at six years old. He may not be aware that he would've died, but he knows that meeting Danny was the best thing to happen to him.

It's no wonder after that, that Damian is as clingy to Danny as he is. Danny is the first person he's met to offer him unconditional love, with no strings attached, only pure affection.

#dpxdc #dp x dc #dp x dc crossover #dpdc #dpxdc crossover #clone^2 #like god can you imagine how scared he must've been? how afraid? he just wants his mom - only to realize he doesnt even matter to her #dpxdc au #danny fenton is not the ghost king #this poor kid man. no wonder he latched onto danny the moment he gave up on the league like a leech. he's a six year old kid man and #it doesnt matter how smart he is or how mature he acts. he still is six years old. he still needs that validation and affection from adults #or from people older than him. and his emotional needs were just not being met in the league.#cue the song “two” from sleeping at last - some of their songs are very clone^2 honestly.#'sweetheart you look a little tired. when did you last eat? come in and make yourself right at home. stay as long as you need.'#'tell me is something wrong? if something's wrong you can count on me'#'its okay if you can't find the words. let me take your coat and this weight off of your shoulders'#'like a force to be reckoned with. am i the ocean or a gentle kiss. i will love you with every single thing i have'#'like a tidal wave i'll make a mess. or calm waters if that serves you best'#'i will love you without any strings attached'#like just. just *imagine* being in damian's shoes during all of this. he's *six* you guys. i've worked with six year olds and they're #pretty independent but they're still six. they get excited when they see their parents and they get upset when an adult is angry with them.#they're still developing their motor skills. they're still developing everything else!

#many a little nuggets #talking about people coming up to him offering him shoeys and him being pretty ‘offended’ that people got him wrong lol #and supposedly Heidi’s only contribution to his music taste is introducing him to Olivia Rodrigo #and him developing an attachment to driver’s license lol #the ending of them giving him a little love ks pretty sweet after all the other shitty Aussie press yesterday :((((#daniel ricciardo #aus gp 2024 #also the part where he talks about how he used to say something when he overtook someone — I need you to get back to it baby

MONSTER SYLVIE’S DESIGN!!

Sylvie IS helping Molly, but his motivations are more morally grey than just for the sake of helping her. He’s fascinated by humans, and he has an interesting in studying her. It’s very unclear what he means by studying but Molly isn’t in any immediate danger. For now, at least.

I have NO clue how he would’ve died (maybe medical malpractice?) so uhhh if anyone has any ideas 👁️👁️ lemme know

#if u look at his arms u can see they’re all bent the wrong way #I fucking Hate sheep and stuff so this one was really easy.#well I don’t HATE them #but like #sheep deers cows rams etc #they freak me out #he probably gets attached to her later on #there goes all his dissection plans smh #epithet erased #my art #sylvester ashling #sylvie ashling #epithet erased fanart #‘yeah Sylvie is one of the more humanoid monsters’ <— me. a liar.#he was supposed to have a human face originally but eh #ee monster au #tw body horror #kinda #it’s not that bad but I want to be careful

Misc Sabito aus bc I am totally normal and don't constantly spin aus in my brain like a wind turbine . -Upper Rank 5? Demon au? Dunno how or why hes there but I imagine it's during the infinity castle arc. Since upper 6 and upper 4 get replaced, why not bridge the gap? Yeah thats It I just wanted to make a demon design :thumbsup: who needs plot that make sense when you can have rule of cool. and also fun -Personal Sabito lives au so I can spin him around on a pencil end . Probably going to draw more for this one bc i've been concocting. Giyuu is his Tsuguko even if Sabito says he may as well be the actual Water Hashira instead of him... While Giyuu says he could never be the Water Hashira. Rest the souls of anyone who gets in between bickering matches from them about that topic. I have a comic in mind for how and why this timeline splits off from the official story so I'll probably sketch that out when I get the time.

#demon slayer #kimetsu no yaiba #giyuu tomioka #sabito #sabito kny #also yeah his clothing is crossed wrong on purpose :thumbsup:#also wow in a surprise to no one.... June latches on to a character that doesnt have as much screentime compared to #everyone else. lol #not ship art btw . they're just attached at the hip thumbsup #skipping stones au

i think hunter should get to be an insane guard dog for luz in more AUs / fics / art. not because it would fix either of them but because whatever's wrong with them is really really Really funny. and also because it For Sure beats being loyal to belos. like okay kid you're already out of your mind and will not stop being out of your mind without years of dedicated study. in the meantime you can be extremely crazy @ the best girl in the world it's fine.

#my kryptonite: fatalistically loyal characters who attach themselves completely to the first person who DOESNT want their loyalty #any AU or honestly canonverse where luz is like yay you can be your own person now :) and hunter is like yours?? your person?? yours yours?#yeah thats the stuff. i have normal feelings about character dynamics and there's nothing wrong with me.#toh #horrible mindscape trauma pals

I thought I’d update my pinned so here goes:

Hello! I’m LoneAnon aka Nonny aka LoneAnonon on AO3! My current fixation is Rottmnt, more specifically Future Leonardo (peepaw brainrot) hehe, so a lot of my works as of recent are Future Leo related! Check them out when you can!

•I’m Blue… da ba dee da… aka Reunion, DMD, LCD, and WDS F!Leos collide in one dimension due to a multiverse oopsey (aka aka a silly “what-if” story where my peepaws meet :).)

•(Accidentally) Played American Football With My Newborn aka a silly F!Leo story where he takes a small baby turtle to the past to stop the krang. Never did he think being a single parent would be harder than defeating the krang. (No turtle tots were harmed in the making of the title.) father-daughter fluff snippet

Completed Works:

•DMD AU or Dead Man’s Deal AU a series with an 8-chapter main story and ongoing side stories centered around F!Leo, who returns to the present carrying his heavy guilt that lands him in the Battled Nexus as the Barbarian. DMD Fanart

•LCD or Leonardo Come Down aka a prologue+9-chapter fic where F!Leo returns to the past with Casey (separately) and is hellbent on getting his revenge. Casey is given the task by Michelangelo to stop the Krang and save Leonardo while F!Leo faces the consequences of his actions. LCD fanart aka my pfp

•Setting Sun aka a 5 part short, interactive story where the readers’ decisions can end the story, or discover the details of Mikey’s situation. (Unedited, no beta, silly little dumpster fire aka something bad that you might not want to look away despite how bad it is) AO3 link

•Distorted Mirror aka a 4 chapter rottmnt Leo-centric fic focusing on his role as the leader in silly time travel oopsies. (The oopsies being the future timeline with the krang apocalypse hehe)

•BYMH or Between You and Me and Him aka an ongoing series where you can ask any of my peepaws anything, or tell them you hate love them. [Peepaw multiverse interview] (please state your request as for bymh)

More to see:

Upcoming Works:

•Lost Ronin aka F!Raph returns to the past under “circumstances” and it’s up to the present turtles to solve these “circumstances”.

•Estranged aka an AU where the Hamatos reunite with their long-lost sisters, Jennika and Venus. (Based on the two turtles meant to be introduced in rottmnt future seasons—we were robbed tsk tsk.) Teaser: Two Birds Jennika and Venus appearance

•(possible?) The M-Word aka a 5?-chapter post-Rise-movie angst fic that deals with Raphael’s trauma regarding what he endured in the midst of the invasion.

•(possible?) Inimitable/Spiderweb aka Big Mama imprisons F!Leo to force him to train her upcoming Battle Nexus Champions in exchange for his freedom.

•(possible?) Reunion F!Leo returns to the past once again to provide ultimate peepaw advice and give the kids the reassurance they need.

•I’m In The Wrong AU aka a joke idea where F!Leo goes through the portal to find the key and stop the krang, but he finds himself in a New York unlike the one he knows. Rottmnt x ‘12tmnt crossover

•Mystic Mirror on the wall, who the fuck are those turtles?/A Genius’s Curiosity/Mirror Realm Activities (name still undecided) aka a separated au where Donnie is raised by Draxum, Mikey raised by Big Mama, Raph raised by the Krang and Leo raised by the streets. The turtles are reunited by Donnie aka Subject 03’s newest creation, a mirror that goes beyond its purpose and creates a realm inside its reflection that the turtles use as their escape from reality.

•Attached aka an rottmnt au set during the apocalypse where Leo is too late in providing backup for the ambush attack on Casey. Upon finding her body, he finds an infant protected in her embrace. An infant with the unforgettable gleam in its eye signifying the Krang.

[Tcest DNI]

Okay so I want to draw android Kylar. But How would he dress??? Is his skin soft? Does he look entirely human or is there some strange things about his appearance that give off his nature? Is he warm???

heehehehehe... so like. think detroit become human. that game is my basis for like. every android ever. so he probably has the cute lil blue circle on his forehead :)

i think a big giveaway for his appearance is his eyes. they don't look human and they stare for far too long without blinking at a time. you have to remind him to blink but half the time he chooses to ignore your complaints.

his skin is soft!! feels like flesh but with a sort of rubbery undertone? he can change his body temperature in accordance with the outside elements (think of the cuddle opportunities, guys...) so yes he can be warm if you'd like :)

but i think a lot of android kylar's appearance is based off of interpretation!! you want him to be a cute little well-kept robot?? GO FOR IT!!! you want him to be a greasy rat but with a concerning moral compass??? GO FOR IT!!!!

#hatkuuasks #hehehehe im so glad everyone likes android kylar #androids r just hot in general...#teaching kylar how to love like a human and stuff - but then he gets the wrong idea and gets WAYYY too attached to you #just... gnnhhh. android au's ruled my senior year fanfic indulgence. i dont know why i find them so appealing waaah #kuuskylarposting

Just saw the leaks and this is the first time i ever considered opening a bottle of beer 😞

🤣🤣🤣 oh um well... I cannot as someone trained in public health encourage you to imbibe hahaha just a sip probably won't fry your nerves but won't have the effect you're going for... (I also don't drink but these last months of cliffhanger chapters leave me dizzy enough lol)

As someone who has not seen the leaks (I saw it last week and clearly threw a fit) I have feelings/guesses/propositions...

Gojo is alive? and the one-eyed cat has made fools of us all (the only way to kill him is off with his head? literally?)

It is one of those manga things like "the ghost of X" and it's because someone is embodying their form so well it's a mirage type thing, which seems a very low tease

Someone has an illusion type curse

This is somehow MeiMei's fault? I feel like she could illusion anything haha

Remember ages ago Kenjaku was like "i don't want to kill a six eyes user because another one just pops up at some point". That is happening? 5b. Maybe Yuuta has the six eyes now? Since they share an ancestor 5c. Eye stealing is a weirdly common manga trope, even though that's no way possible

Who cares (filled with vengeance and vinegar). I'm a fanfic writer. Our job description is to do whatever we want anyway. Now I have three more plausible options for He Lives

We'll get through it anon 🤭 it's almost over

and then no one ever has to care about canon again (<- a jesterly threat)

#ask answered #jjk #gojo satoru #jjk leaks #mention of leaks #can you tell i want to be right though 😮‍💨#it's one of my less positive character traits #I don't like to be wrong 😅... I had a low grade panic when I thought he might be back #because I had gotten Attached to gojo and the au I was building #and myy oc's grief story for if he dies canon au #ironically this is what gojo is like in slow motion #bare your heart to him and watch him laugh at you 😒

hey. anyone ever think about 1x06 Skin. what if Dean died, but being in Dean's shape made something snap in the shifter's mind and it decided to take Dean's place for real. and it had absorbed enough of Dean's memories and personality that he was pretty much just Dean except Sam is more wary of him, at least for a while. (and John of course never notices that's not his real son.)

#hm i should make an original post tag #spn #1x06 #dean #sam #look i haven't watched the first seasons in like a decade so my memory of it is Bad #but imagine. wrong dean. who gets so attached to the role he ends up killing john to protect sam. btw.#he 'comes out' to bobby and bobby is like [sees how much this dean cares about everything the real dean cared about]#''hm. didn't know you had a silver allergy.''#and every now and then when a case is going nowhere sam is like 'can't you. yknow. transform into someone more useful.'#and when sam is exploring the whole demon blood powers n stuff it goes much better this time. wrong dean would not think him a freak for it #and would probably encourage he explore his powers more safely. like try to do it without depending on demon blood. much safer #unfortunately no angels in this au. since monsters don't have souls to sell and go to hell for.#but also can you imagine the adam episode with shifter dean. the ghouls see him and are like what the fuck. same hat????

Two characters I've made and levelled the past month or so: Aria Siegebreaker and (Researcher) Kialli

#Aria was gonna be an au commander but dfjhjh I can't really Do Those #I dunno I'm just too attached to Arengar as The Commander tm and putting anyone else into this place just feels wrong to me #I can't get attached to any au commanders and just lose the motivation for them very quickly cuz That's Arengar's Job #so idk what to do with her now djfgkjh but hey she's pretty at least #and Kialli was made because of my need to make a shy little crybaby rat #because my other asura is on the absolute opposite of the spectrum #aka he's an insane feral rat #gw2 #guild wars 2 #charr #asura

I have been drawing. This is what I have at this moment. The band wants to join me.

Shine was watching an old show on my room's VCR, I thought it was pretty. I have the look of the angel in my head so I started to draw this for her.

#i used angel gabby as a reference and dude i love how this is turning out #poor freddy #even just doodling its bonnie #its probably less longing and more attachment because before bonnie was gone everything was normal #no bonnie and everything goes wrong. bring back bonnie and things will be right again #a mix of wanting bonnie back and wanting things to be normal again #glamdad #fnaf au #glamrock dad #fnaf security breach #fnaf ask blog #glamrock father #asks open #bonnie inspired by angel gabby

Ahhh! Help, I’m back on my shit again!

No O66 AUs where Ahsoka wants to return to the Jedi but is still working through all of the feelings of betrayal, hurt, abandonment.

They love to focus on Ahsoka lashing out, blaming, being angry. Which is fair. I think to say she wouldn’t is disingenuous to her character, especially during this time period. She is flawed (this is another gripe about all fanon characterization - leave your favs flawed, they are better this way).

But what they never do is have someone from the order (who isn’t Anakin) say they understand why she feels this way.

They never tell her they understand why she hurts and doesn’t trust and is angry. It’s always “it’s because she’s young”.

And yeah, that contributes, but whether they had an option or not (they did not - fucking senate, fucking Tarkin, fucking insidious bastard), her family kicks her out and she is almost executed. That is justifiable trauma, and I would argue it would be traumatic for anyone, regardless of age.

I understand Plo apologies on behalf of the council before she leaves, but there is a difference between “we are sorry” and “we see you and your emotions are valid.”

Anyways, this is my way of saying I love when Ahsoka is messy about the Jedi and has to work through those issues, but some of you treat her being upset about her expulsion and near execution the same as my five-year-old throwing a tantrum when I take away a toy.

Attributing it to age and Anakin’s influence is too simple. There are actual issues here, and you can be pro Jedi and pro council and pro Obi-wan and still admit she has a reason to be upset.

#ahsoka tano #the clone wars #tcw au #my blorbo is messy #and yours should be too #not look at the uwu with trauma messy #but makes mistakes messy #sorry for the rant #I am very attached to fics where Ahsoka returns to the Jedi #without the whole Jedi have to fully change narrative #because there is nothing wrong with them #but then those fics take a very this is her problem and no one’s actions contributed to it stance #Plo saying they are sorry at the end of the wrong Jedi arc is not the same #it’s one thing to say sorry #it’s another to say I see you and your emotions are valid
