Another au but this one is about hawks, because i love him

In this au keigo dies moments after all for one stoles his quirk, and then he wakes up in the past

In this au hawks eyes are just black like void to represent the part of him that was stole from him in the future and they will only go back to normal if he stills has his full wing and his quirk in the future.

Also he broke lady nagant out of jail.

This is my excuse to put three characters i like very much together (hawks, lady nagant, stain)

The red things in the bed are hawks feathers

Time Travel (sort of)

"Hush, be patient, Master Wayne."

"But that's my son, not yours!?"

"Careful, darling, you might break his poor little angel ears."

Bruce could hear his parents talking. He knew his head wasn't on the right way when he saw the vision of his mother and father. Even Alfred is there. Exactly how Bruce remember him when he was younger.

He quietly grasp for nothing in the air. Thomas squealed. He carries Bruce, lift him up in the air like some sort of toy. And Bruce doesn't understand it even a little bit.

Where was he? Why is his parents still alive? How did this happen?

As it turns out, he time traveled. Sort of? Perhaps.

He had been died in his first timeline. That's all he could remember. Being under Superman's embrace, his head badly wounded, and Dick was desperately trying to keep him alive. But it was all worthless.

Bruce is dead.

And now he somehow get transported into where he had been started. In his lively manor, with his parents and Alfred. Like a family supposed to be. But Bruce know better.

Somehow, he could still lose his parents. He doesn't want to. But it's the event that would impacted so much to his life.

And what Bruce did is to pretend that it doesn't impacted him that much. To pretend that he's alright and had been moving on. Never becomes Batman. Just a regular kind, caring, and cheerful Bruce Wayne.

Somehow he still got Dick Grayson who sneak out every night, followed by Jason Todd (he didn't die in this timeline, thank god), Cassandra Cain... basically all of his previous children.

He knew that they were up to something. Something like "vigilantism".

And what's wrong with the Justice League trying to protecting Bruce all cost? It's not like he's a damsel in distress! (He is an attention seeking whore instead).

lil description for my story

Hagarin never expected her life to become a story worth telling. Born into an ordinary existence, her reality twists when she discovers her fate as a time traveler-one with no map, no prophecy, and no warning for what comes next As her twin sister Hanari once said: "You've got a hell of a story to tell." With each jump through time, Hagarin sees the world through fractured glimpses: memories that aren't hers, tragedies she can't stop, and horrors she must survive.

From battles against monsters and violent self-defense to heart-wrenching losses and fleeting moments of love, every fragment shapes the tale she's destined to live-and the one she's meant to tell. This is a story of fractured futures, untold horrors, fleeting romances, and the weight of knowing too much.

A Penny and the Boy Pharaoh situation

I was having a good time here when I remembered Mr. Peabody and Sherman, I love them, and, as a bonus, Penny.

If I'm not mistaken, there's a time when Penny goes back in time with Peabody and Sherman and they end up in ancient Egypt, and there they meet this boy, who became a pharaoh early on (I think, it's been a while since I watched it and I don't remember well), and he falls in love with Penny, and tries to make her fall in love with him by giving her gifts, and when that doesn't work, he kind of tries to force her, but Peabody and Sherman manage to get her out of there and stuff.

So, I, at my peak of creativity-for-everything-but-new-caps-for-my-fics-or-for-my-au, thought; "Why not do a version of this, but with the Batfam?"

And now I have this in my head, like, there are two versions, where they go back in time, and because of their cryptid shenanigans, they get mistaken for deities or something, and the Egyptians try to workshop them, or, they end up on this other planet, or hidden world, like Themyscera, or something, and the people there look at these cryptids and think; "Oh! Exotic pets!" or something.

I don't know if I would put the entire Batfam on the trip together or if it would just be a few, but I definitely want Dick to be Penny.

Like, in my cryptid Batfam headcanons, I like Dick (as an adult) to have this seductive, mermaid-like vibe. You know what I mean? So he would definitely be the one to have a pharaoh/authority figure simping for him.

Like:

★•°=================•°•●•°•================°•★

Egyptians, seeing a flock of winged creatures, intelligent and clever, with animal characteristics:

Egyptians: *Looks at murals of their gods, human bodies with animal characteristics*

Egyptians

Egyptians: Are they deities? Demigods?

Batfam: *Cold sweat as they definitely don't want to cause changes to the timeline.* Uhm...

——

The Pharaoh, looking at a Dick, with all his natural charm, plus, the incorporation of the mermaid vibe into his cryptid persona: Is this what love at first sight looks like?

Dick, seeing as how his choice came to bite him in the ass in the worst way possible: Oh no.

Rest of the Batfam minus Bruce: *Outside cool, inside laughing like gazelles.*

Bruce, going into full protective dad mode: Do. Not. Even. Dare. You. *Squints menacingly at the Pharaoh*

——

The Pharaoh simping over Dick: Here *precious jewels and gold.*

Dick "raised as a billionaire's son after the age of 5, once even replicating the scene of Uncle Scrooge swimming in money when a kid" Grayson-Wayne: Uh... no need, sir *crooked smile that looks more like a grimace.*

——

Servants trying to put gold accessories and other precious stones on the winged demigod by the Pharaoh's orders: Wait please!-

Dick receiving small shocks from the wing sensors bc they were programmed to warn when something gets between the feathers and can make difficult to fly: GET IT OFF MY WINGS, GET IT OOOOOFFFFFFFF AAAARGGGHHHH- *Writhing in hatred and discomfort.*

The Pharaoh seeing that this is stressing the demigod instead of pleasing him: Damn it! Stop, stop before he hates me more-

——

Bruce, arms crossed: *Squinting suspiciously.*

The Pharaoh trying to gain the favor of the father of the demigod he wants to court: Hi *Nervous laughter.*

The Pharaoh: For you. *Shows typical offerings of the time for him.*

Bruce "Man that literally come from the future with his family" Wayne: What the- *Disgusted.*

The Pharaoh: WhAt DiD i Do WrOnG tHiS tImE!?!?

——

Bastard child crying:

The Pharaoh irritated: Get rid of th-

Dick, pissed off at the situation: DON'T YOU DARE FINISH THAT SENTENCE! *Cryptid growls as he cradles the child protectively.*

The Pharaoh in a cold sweat: I-understood... *Intimidated but also attracted?*

The child's mother: My son-

Dick: Take him *Hands the child to the mother with a gentle and friendly smile that he uses to talk to victims.*

The Pharaoh who only gets grimaces: Why isn't he like ThAt WiTh Me??

——

The Pharaoh: *Trying again (and failing) to woo Dick*

Dick: *Running away again*

Jason: HA! *points and laughs.*

Damian, being held like a feral cat by Jason: *Unholy screams of anger and disgust.*

Kate: Hahaha, it's like when Bruce had to run away from fangirls at school again!

Bruce, being held like a feral cat by Kate: *Unholy screams of anger and disgust.*

——

Duke nervous: uhn, what are you guys doing...?

Damian: Setting up a political coup plot to remove that unworthy pharaoh from the throne as punishment for his sins.

Bruce: *Covering Damian's mouth with his hand* More like a...prank, to stop him from chasing after Dick.

Damian squirming away from Bruce's hand: That's what I said, Father.

Duke: Oh I'm in.

Bruce: The more the better. Look, we gonna...*Proceeds to explain the state political coup plan that ends with the beheading of the pharaoh.*

Duke raised an eyebrow: I thought we don't kill if it's not necessary?

Bruce: The people will decide his fate.

Damian: And killing is indeed necessary in this situation.

Duke: *Shrugs* Okay, whatever you say.

well

heres the 80s half !!

If you get teleported to the 1920's invest everything in cinema the price of it will be pretty dam low the first few months or years but when the great depression hits you can sell that stuff for hundreds of dollars and do not under any circumstances put your money in the bank.

Also if you want to invest in other stuff steel is a good option if quite a bit cheaper.

Naruto time travel fic idea

I have this idea for a fun MadaTobi time travel fic where Madara and Tobirama accidentally go back in time to before Konoha was founded, this is in an everything is good world where Izuna didn’t die and the whole thing was just an accident. They end up at a point where Madara and Hashirama are, like, 16 and Tobirama and Izuna are 12. So Madara and Tobirama have had basically no interaction at this point, and then suddenly these adult versions of them show up bickering like an old married couple and clearly pining after each other. They also know way too much about each other, it’s freaking out their clans because you get to know people in a completely different way when you live in the same village and work together every day than when you have bordering territories and only really see each other during skirmishes. Tobirama complains about Madara’s sleeping habits and references having tea with other members of the Uchiha clan; Madara has a lot to say about Tobiramas’s work habits and insane experiments, he’s also obsessed with this one Senju bakers sweet rolls or something. Little stuff like that that just completely blindsided their clans. Maybe Hikaku and Touka are there too to make snide comments and just gleefully watch their respective clan heads (Hashirama would have given up the title to his brother in order to become Hokage) drive everyone around them insane while dealing sexual tension that freaks out teenage Madara and kicks the Senju clan into overprotective high gear (because again, 12). I don’t know, I just foresee a lot of comedy potential for someone who is a way better writer than I am.

Naruto Fic Idea

I have this idea for a time travel fic where Obito manages to do something that ends with Team Minato all returning to their bodies at some point before Kannabi bridge at the moment of their death. Of course, for Rin it would be the Sanbi incident, and I’m thinking for Minato it should be the Kyuubi attack, then Obito from the fourth shinobi war. So these three are coming from pretty bad moments in time and they find waking up in the past a second chance to fix things. Minato and Rin don’t know what’s going on, but they think Obito dies at the bridge and saving him is one of their major goals. Obito has a plan, he wants to change everything and go after things like a real fix-it, he gets Rin and Minato on his side easily, and then there’s Kakashi.

Kakashi died in his sleep, probably sitting in a chair on his deck watching the sunset, surrounded by his ninken and maybe with Tenzo or Gai sitting next to him. (I’m a kakayama and a kakagai shipper but it can be whoever you want or no one if you don’t want to have shipping involved.) Anyway, when Kakashi wakes up in the past he’s horrified. He has spent his entire life fighting for Konoha, first as a solider, then as Hokage and finally as an advisor, working towards real peace. And they succeeded. (I choose to ignore all Boruto related stuff, I kind of like combining this idea with my Daimyo Kakashi fic idea.) Whatever you imagine future Konoha being like, I like to think they brought the shinobi age to an end. They were moving past the time of mercenaries, fighting and war in favor of real progress. Details aside, Kakashi died feeling genuinely accomplished, having lived a long and full life, he was ready to pass on and he is not thrilled to find himself in the past.

When he finds out Obito is behind it, he is absolutely furious. He had mostly come to peace with what Obito had done, but he is now confronted once again with just how selfish and shortsighted he is. I imagine this fic mostly from the POV of Minato and Rin, maybe Kushina too. They are completely confused, they remember Obito as a happy and brave young man, and Kakashi as a cold and detached kid with stunted emotional growth. They have no idea what’s going on, they’re in favor of changing things and trying to fix it, Obito is trying to convince Kakashi that this is a good idea. All Kakashi really cares about is whether or not his future still exists somewhere and completely done with things otherwise. He doesn’t think it’s a future worth giving up just to appease his regrets. He’s also tired, Kakashi died from old age so he was, like >90, and he has no interest in repeating it all again.

I’m not really sure what to do from there, I just think it’d be an interesting set of dynamics.

Nature is designed in a smart way so as to not destroy itself right? This means there are certain limitations to what we can do, for example

Assuming we live in a world where time travel is possible:

The Grandfather paradox (or something alike) will be created no matter how careful we are if we were to be able to time travel. But since physics is a well functioning logical model, there must be a system or mechanism to ensure otherwise.

For example, like in Avengers Endgame it’s stated that you can’t change the present or future by changing the past because the past becomes the present you’s future. This means that the grandfather paradox is not possible (basically the entire last season of the umbrella academy 😌).

So it must mean that every time we travel into the past, and change something, a new timeline or new universe with a slightly different detail is created, which must be the reason the series “Loki” had so many time-lines?

I think my future self just walked into this coffee shop. Brb gonna find out.

Can we talk about the obvious lack of time travel fic in supernatural? I'm totally outraged, where are the hundreds of fanfics where Dean goes back in time and fixes all the problems? (bonus point if Sam is with him)

I'm not going to say I'm disappointed, but I am. :(

Anyway, if you have time travel fic (with Dean) to suggest to me I'll take it :')

dynamight and izuku

Randomly hyperfixating on theoretical physics time travel

Okay, I know that I post basically only art, but in Marvel and DC there's legit just time squared, like there is a timeline but then a timeline of changes to the timeline as well and it's very funky to think about. I'll draw something later to attach to this.

"If it helps, one of the many scenarios my brain likes to twist around is imagining Sonic's perspective of No Cracks In A Closed Loop (and I adore Tails getting to be a badass and pulling off the impossible, too- my brain just likes to spin on the angst sometimes)" - @manynerdthings

A/N: So I was inspired...

I think it's safe to say this helped a lot xD Thank you, manynerdthings!

This is a continuation of my fic "No Cracks in a Closed Loop"

No Cracks in a Closed Loop — Sonic's Side

"Sonic."

That single word—no, just the voice alone—was enough to cut through the adrenaline rush as pure chaos energy sang through his veins and ignited every nerve with its spark. In a flash of light and sound, Super Sonic punched a hole through the Starfall-titan-wanna-be by using his own body as a projectile. A cocky grin cut across his muzzle as it wobbled in place, setting its sights on him instead of the city it had been about to level; its laser cannons aimed directly at the fault line.

This fight wouldn't last twenty seconds. They'd already won.

"What's up, partner?" Sonic said into the comm as he shot skyward.

The streak of gold drew the mech's cannon higher, until it cleared the tips of skyscrapers and nearby mountaintops by the time it shot at him. The laser's heat didn't even singe his fur, firing at full power into the stratosphere instead of drilling deep into the crust of the planet. It zinged past the satellite Tails was communicating from, but Super Sonic's gaze didn't linger on it for more than half a second—already more than certain it was out of the laser's range. Speeding through the air, he whirled around towards the mech for his next move. He was going to cyloop Eggman's newest addition to his junk pile right off its feet. 

Swerving down in a sharp arc, Super Sonic avoided the next blast while he swung around to try and circle it. It's clawed hand swiped at him before he could complete his first circuit. He shot straight up before it could catch him, homing attacking it in the face instead.

The comm was still quiet. Tails must've swapped to their own channel. Super Sonic flew backwards, putting both the titan and the distant satellite in his line of sight. Whatever he had to say, he didn't want anyone else to hear it.

Super Sonic's brow furrowed as a barrage of bullets opened up on him. He weaved between the hundreds of projectiles glinting dangerously in the sunlight, but his chaos energy and speed worked in tandem, as fluidly as a dance, while he searched for another opening to try the cyloop again.

He could beat this thing without it, sure, but it was the fastest way to take it down.

"Tails? Still with me, bud?" Super or not, Sonic still spared a second to check in, static ringing in his ears as he burst through the center of the mech's chest plate for a shortcut.

"I'm here," Tails answered, but his voice sounded faint, like the feedback was drowning him out. "Sorry, I…" Super Sonic started his cyloop. "I just wanted to—" He was halfway around. "I'm sorry—"

Sonic closed the loop. A burst of chaos energy swelled up with a deafening boom. The air rippled with the force of it in great gusts of wind that rocked the trees and the grass of the nearby hills. Waves rose up in the bay, their white caps scraping the bottom of the golden bridge that marked the edge of the sea. The fake titan lifted into the air, sparks crackling off its metal casing as its system overloaded. Super Sonic didn't give it a second to recalibrate itself.

Faster than anyone could see, he smashed into it on all sides. A tiny mote of golden light against the towering behemoth, but it struck every weak point, fried every circuit, as the chaos energy pressed in on it from the outside. Metal crunched and caved it on itself, contorting into a twisted configuration until it no longer resembled a machine.

A cheap imitation of the ancients' attempts to defend themselves, designed only to destroy instead of protect.

Super Sonic grabbed onto mech's arm—or maybe its leg, it was hard to tell at this point—as the cyloop's effect faded, catching it before it crushed Westopolis. He swung it around and around, gritting his teeth as he built up momentum and set his sights on the ocean out ahead of them. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

Super Sonic let go.

The mech's remains were flung through the air, over the coastline and beyond the bridge that cut off the bay from the sea. It crashed into the water, the ocean spray shooting up into the air in a tower of mist once it hit the surface. The waves rolled aggressively towards the coastline, but ultimately broke apart in the bay before they could do too much damage. Some millionaires might have to replace a yacht or two, but that wasn't Sonic's problem.

As he dusted his hands off, he could finally acknowledge the warning bells Tails's last words to him had set off. "Hey, what was that, bud? I didn't catch—"

Super Sonic turned towards the satellite, addressing it like he would Tails, but it was gone. Instead a cloud of smoke filled the space where the satellite had been not ten seconds ago. Metal shards and fire rained upon the bay. Everything in pieces. Everything gone.

His comm was in chaos. Unintelligible voices shouted over one another in a cacophony of white noise that was already fighting a losing battle to the ringing in his ears. But he still noticed one voice was missing. He couldn't hear it.

He hadn't heard any of it.

Over the sonic boom of his cyloop and the screeching of metal as he demolished the titan, Sonic hadn't heard the satellite explode.

The satellite his little brother was on.

He'd been trying to tell him something.

He'd been trying to tell him something before a satellite exploded with him on it.

"I'm sorry."

Tails. 

Super Sonic shot off like a bullet, speeding towards the black cloud of smoke and smoldering debris like there was even a chance—

No. There had to be a chance—

"I just wanted to—I'm sorry—"

Why? What happened? What did you do, Tails?

He hadn't even properly seen him off before he left. Tails had been trying to hack into Eggman's satellite remotely while Sonic was out chasing after the faux titans. He told them all about his plan to board the satellite and everyone agreed it sounded like the right call, so long as he could do it quickly. They needed to disrupt the signal, after all, and Tails was their best shot.

That was what he'd said, wasn't it? "You're our best shot, Tails. I believe in you, partner."

Their best shot, but not the only one. Not if it meant this.

Nothing was worth this.

Sonic didn't need to breathe while super, but his lungs still burned twin holes in his chest as his own nervous system caught fire. Golden sparks flicked off his quills as he raced through the air. Fiery eyes frantically scanned each scrap of metal that fell, but they must've already been irritated from the smoke because they burned and blurred with the rest of the world around him—

"—onic, wait! Come back! Sonic!"

One voice.

Super Sonic stopped. He stopped so fast and so suddenly, it felt like his own soul completely missed the memo. Like everything inside him continued to hightails it towards where Tails had been without him, leaving him empty. Hollow. Cold.

A vacuous space in the center of himself where there'd once been something. 

The chaos energy inside him didn't know what to do with that.

With so much… nothing.

Stunned, he could only float in place for a stupid second until he remembered he'd stopped for a reason. With a sharp turn, his stare locked onto a splash of orange amidst the blotchy colors of the rest of the world bleeding into one another. Like he was still moving too fast to see clearly. Like he couldn't catch up to himself.

"Sonic…" Tails's voice broke like it had on the comm, but it wasn't with pain guilt fear regret static.

Vision clearing, Sonic could see him now. At the edge of one of the hills overlooking Westopolis and the bay. Tails just rubbed at his nose with a sheepish sort of grin, like the explosion was a minor miscalculation. A hiccup. My bad, he could hear him saying, like he was standing in the middle of his workshop, covered in soot and singed fur, one hand on his hip and a fire extinguisher at his feet.

Like he was fine.

Like he hadn't been incinerated in the fiery inferno smoldering above them.

Tails lowered his hand, eyes shining as they looked up at him, reflecting the very sky Super Sonic was caught in as the satellite's remains fell all around him. He'd been on that satellite. Just seconds ago, Sonic had been so sure of it.

He'd been so sure he'd lost him…

Then Tails opened his arms to him and laughed.

All at once Sonic crashed back into himself, chest heaving with a sharp inhale as his heart lurched forward. 

Faster than a blink, Super Sonic barrelled into Tails and sent them toppling down the hillside. They smacked hard against the ground, but Sonic took the brunt of the fall even with the world spinning around them. His arms encircled Tails tightly, one hand protecting the back of his head while the other braced the small of his back as they tumbled and whooped like a pair of idiots. Pure joy radiated through him, burning brighter than the chaos energy coursing through his quills. It knocked the emeralds right out of him. The seven gems fell into the grass around them as the two mobians eventually rolled to a stop.

Sonic clutched Tails to him, shaking with breathless laughter as he felt his little brother hug him back just as tightly. "I'm here," Tails was saying, and it took a minute to realize he'd been repeating the words while Sonic's hands were trembling. "I'm here. It's okay, big bro. I'm here. I’m here."

"And you say I'm the one that's gonna give you a heart attack," Sonic wheezed, not bothering to give himself room to breathe if it meant letting go for even a second.

"Can't let you have all the fun." Tails smoothed his hands over Sonic's spines to try and settle him, his touch purposeful and grounding. "Deep breaths, big bro. You're gonna pass out."

"Nuh-uh," he argued, but filled his lungs with his next inhale anyway, then let all the air ease out of him.

"That's it. There ya go," Tails encouraged, but Sonic couldn't help his snort of indignation at being coddled and pushed away from him. 

Except Tails just tightened his grip; fingers curling in his fur like they'd be forced apart if he didn't. He hid his face in the crook of Sonic's neck, his breaths coming only a little too fast. But his hands were shaking, too, and his twin tails wound around them both as if they were enough to protect them from the next threat. 

Sonic didn't pull away. He just sat back, the eleven-year-old practically in his lap, and rested his hand atop Tails's head.

"Gave me a real scare there, pal," he said, voice low and gentle as he smoothed out his fur, picking at the grass and brambles they were both covered in.

"…Scared me, too."

Sonic's heart clenched, the open admission like a bludgeon to his protective instincts, even if his pride assured him Tails could handle it. After all, the proof had all but climbed into his lap. But now that he was looking at him—really looking at him—he could see his fur was mussed up from more than just a tumble at supersonic speed. A streak of blood stained his fur on his shoulder and there was a lump near the center of his back that filled Sonic with an angry fire hot enough to burn through the atmosphere when he so much as brushed against it with his fingers. 

Tails didn't flinch when he grazed it, but his muscles gave an involuntary spasm that rippled beneath his fur and his hold on Sonic tightened. It was enough to quell the roiling rage to a simmer. Something he could stick a lid on without worrying it would boil over if left unchecked. It wasn't what Tails needed from him right now.

But Sonic still wanted some answers.

"What happened up there?" he asked. 

Tails shook his head. "Just a bit of a closer call than I thought it'd be. But I'll be okay. I am okay."

Sonic instinctively bristled, prepared to be shut out of whatever it was he'd gone through. "Tails—"

"I'll tell you someday," he promised, pressing his paw over Sonic's heart. "I mean it. But right now we've got a lot of Eggman's mess to clean up. There's still six other titans out there and I'm sure everyone else is worried."

Sonic sighed, as exasperated as he could manage when he was still just glad this kid was alive. "Gonna hold you to that," he threatened, ruffling his fur to muss it up on purpose. "You owe me. Nearly shocked the Chaos Emeralds right outta my system."

"Says Mr. Guy-Who-Loves-Adventure," Tails teased as he pushed himself up to stand. "You should be used to it by now."

Sonic snorted when he was offered a hand up, but he took it nonetheless. "When I go gray early, I'll know exactly who to blame."

"Don't worry. I'll help you dye your quills, old man," Tails snickered, but it broke off with a wince as a sharp twinge ran through his back.

Sonic was quick to lay a supportive hand at his hip to steady him. "Look who's talking. At this rate, you're gonna be right there with me setting the record for the world's youngest old timers."

Tails sent him a look, but accepted the help nonetheless as he leaned his weight against him. "Did you really have to knock us all the way down the hill like that?"

"Heh. Well, in my defense, wasn't exactly thinking straight." Sonic scratched at his nose, giving him a not-so-subtle onceover. "Didn't bang ya up too bad, did I?"

"Nah. I'll bounce back," Tails assured him, giving him a pat on the back.

"You always do," Sonic agreed warmly as they took a few steps in tandem so they could start collecting the Chaos Emeralds on their way back up the hill while Tails alerted everyone to their status on his comm and checked in on everyone else as well.

Sonic just listened, taking in the rise and fall of his voice, his steady assurances and sighs of relief to hear that the world hadn't fallen apart in his absence. Even if it very nearly did. As far as Sonic was concerned, anyway.

But he was okay now. That was what mattered. And whatever it was that happened on that satellite—whatever reason Tails had for calling him seconds before disaster—he would trust that his little brother would come to him when he was ready. Because he'd be there for him. No matter what.

Keeping his arm looped around Tails’s waist even after they made it back up the hill, Sonic looked up at the smoke still fading from the sky. He tightened his hold on him. It felt like another lifetime, like another him had first seen the explosion and feared the worst. Tails followed his gaze, quiet again with all the calls taken care of and winded from the uphill climb. Through his labored breaths, there was the slightest tremor that traveled from his chest to where he stood pressed against his brother.

"…Scared me, too."

 "Hey, whatever happened up there," Sonic broke the silence, his voice drawing Tails back down beside him. "Whatever you did, I'll bet it was seriously way past cool." He glanced over at him, waiting to catch his eye before giving him a wink.

All too easily, Tails grinned up at him, the shape of his smile the spitting image of his brother's. "Way past is definitely one way to put it."

———

Five years later…

———

"You've been quiet all day, partner. Something going on in that big brain of yours?"

Everyone else had split off for the night. Team Dark vanished sometime after lunch, after Rouge once again tricked Shadow into accompanying her, and Team Chaotix had an appointment for their next case. Amy took Cream back home to Vanilla while Tangle and Whisper left to help Jewel out with some Restoration business.

Which left just Sonic and Tails lounging on the couch; the former picking up where Vector had left off in the game he'd been playing, tapping away at the controller while the latter watched.

Tails hummed in acknowledgement, so Sonic let him have a minute of quiet to collect his thoughts. He picked at one of Whisper's cinnamon muffins, crumbs scattering across the coffee table, but he didn't eat any of it. He hadn't had much of an appetite since slinking out of his lab earlier that afternoon.

It probably had something to do with the quiet and the way he'd been kinda clingy. Sonic had planned on going for a run as soon as Tails retreated back to his lab to tinker with whatever gadgets he had tucked away back there, but he seemed pretty content to stay curled up on the couch beside him. Still, Sonic could adapt. He kicked his feet up onto the coffee table and slumped back into the cushions as he wandered aimlessly around in a game he couldn't remember owning.

"Do you remember that time you went up against Eggman's seven fake titans?"

Sonic let out a low whistle. "Boy, is that a blast from the past. What about it?" 

When Tails didn't immediately continue, Sonic pressed the pause button, then shifted against the cushion to sit up and face his not-so-little-anymore bro. The sixteen-year-old fox tore his gaze from the screen to watch him instead, eyes bright from television's glow. Looking at him like that, for a split second, Sonic could still see the insecure, little fox kit he used to be in the way his shoulders hunched up as if to make himself smaller. To take up less space in the world.

Sonic draped one arm along the back of the couch, leaving space for him to lean into if he wanted it. No matter how big he got, there'd always be space for him.

Tails scooted closer and rested his head against Sonic's arm. "I needed to disrupt the satellite signal powering the Chaos Emerald vaults, but Eggman locked me out of the remote connection so I had to access it directly—"

"On the actual satellite," Sonic interjected, fingers drumming against the back of the couch. "I remember."

Tails released a long exhale. "Well, he set a trap. A way to slow me down so I wouldn't be able to unlock the emeralds for you in time. The same code that would disrupt the satellite's signal would also cause it to self-destruct. Eggman banked on me having enough self-preservation that I wouldn't engage it without trying to disable that function first."

"But you set it off anyway."

"I set it off anyway," Tails confirmed with a decisive nod. "It was the outcome with the highest percentage of saving people. The fastest way to help you guys. I thought I could get out in time. I should've gotten out in time," his voice lowered, eyes distant as if he was reliving the moment right there on their couch. "But I couldn't. Not on my own. I needed… help."

Sonic tried to follow him there, even if he didn't much like to relive that day in his waking hours. "So you called me."

"Not… exactly." Tails sat up straighter so he could look him in the eye. "I knew you'd come get me if I asked, but then countless lives would've been lost if the titans had gone on unchecked, even if just for a couple of seconds. Sometimes that's all it takes…" Tails's fist clenched as he dropped his hardened gaze to his lap. "I made the call to initiate the self-destruct in order to save people. I couldn't take that back. I couldn't take you away from them. Not again."

A younger Sonic would've snapped at him—would've argued over the value of his life with him until he wasn't the only one blue in the face. But at twenty-three, Sonic had fought more of these battles than he cared to count and never once walked away a winner. So he sat back, held his tongue, and let Tails explain himself.

"I called you to say goodbye," his voice lowered to a whisper, "I wanted to give you that, at least.”

He'd had a feeling. It wasn't one he dwelled on freely, but sometimes the thought wandered in uninvited. Moreso during the first couple of months after the incident, when everything was still fresh and closer to their present.

Before Sonic could respond, Tails pressed forward. "But then an older version of myself traveled through time with two Chaos Emeralds to save me. He said it was the only way. Because at the time, only the two of us knew what transpired on the satellite. We created a temporal paradox, a loop without a proper origin, but as long as it was contained between the two versions of me, nothing could disrupt it. That's why I couldn't tell you before. I wasn't sure… I didn't know if the future version of myself had told you what happened and if that would open up possibilities in the time stream that would botch the encounter entirely." Tails lifted his gaze to seek out Sonic's again, and he could see the eleven-year-old sitting in front of him like it was that very same day. "I'm sorry. I wanted to tell you."

"Nothing to apologize for, bud. I get it. I wouldn't want to mess up the time stream for that particular moment either." Sonic shifted the arm draped along the couch so he could cup the back of Tails's head, idly ruffling the fur there. "But if you're telling me all this now…" he drawled, moving to scritch behind Tails's ear. "Charmy wasn't the one who swiped Shadow's Chaos Emerald earlier, was he?"

Tails shrugged, muzzle quirking up on one side. "When he showed up with it today, I just had this feeling that it was time to make my move…" Tails explained. "I've been feeling it for a couple weeks now, to be honest. I had all the equipment I'd had on me that day and I looked close enough to how I remembered. I knew I probably had to go back soon. Just needed everything to align so no one would interfere. Today seemed good…"

Sonic tilted his head as Tails trailed off, his eyes still a little distant. "Well, you made it back in one piece, didn't you? Mission accomplished."

"Yeah. Mission accomplished," he echoed, but whatever was on his mind continued to fester. "I thought I made a mistake."

"Hm?"

"There were only three seconds left," Tails whispered. "I thought I messed it all up. I thought I killed us both—"

"You—"

"I was so sure it would work because it already had, but there was still the possibility I could've gotten it wrong. I could've caused a split in our realities. Created two timelines where I ceased to exist, except in this one no one would've known what happened to me and two of the Chaos Emeralds would be lost to time. How would any of you have known where to look?" Tails rambled, pressing his hands over his face. "I estimated the time of day with a standard deviation of a couple of seconds, but those seconds could've been what killed us—"

"Hey, hey, hey," Sonic hushed, shifting to wrap both arms around his little brother as he slumped against him. "You didn't. You're here. You're right here with me, see?" He gave him a firm squeeze, smile tugging at his muzzle as Tails hugged him back tightly. "Atta boy."

"Stupid…" he mumbled into Sonic's shoulder. "Why does this still work so well?"

"Heh. What're big brothers for?" Sonic huffed out a chuckle. "Listen, you can't live a life of what-ifs, bud. It'll drive you outta your mind. I should know. And I know you know that, too." He felt Tails's nod against his cheek. "You did exactly what you set out to do. And heck, you used the Chaos Emeralds to travel through time! When did you learn how to do that, huh? Holding out on your big bro?"

Tails snorted, but it got him to relax enough to pull back. "Figured if I could use Chaos Control, time travel was just an added boost. Like adding a supercharger to the Tornado's engine."

"Tch. You figured." Sonic rolled his eyes, but the warmth in them was nothing but fond. "Give yourself a little more credit. You did something incredible today, Tails. You defied time and space to save yourself. And not only that, you gave yourself a future to look forward to. Because who wouldn't want to turn out to be like you?"

It was Tails's turn to roll his eyes, though it was his own chuckle that betrayed him. "That's what I told me."

"And wiser words were never spoken," Sonic assured him as he gave his knee a firm pat.

"I dunno. Could make a case for the consequences of rewriting timelines and creating unsustainable permutations of past and future events." Tails grinned.

"Now you’re just being smart," Sonic snorted.

"Well, I am a genius." Tails bumped his shoulder to Sonics. "But I also learned from the best. Even eleven-year-old me picked up on that."

"Well, he's a genius, too. He knows what's up." Sonic slung his arm around Tails’s shoulder, this time his turn to watch as his brother picked up the video game controller to continue where Sonic left off. 

He let him, taking his turn to be content as he watched Tails figure out the game faster than he did and go farther than Sonic could. They said nothing for a few minutes, Tails working out the rest of his pent up feelings through the game while Sonic quietly processed what he'd just been told. He wasn't a stranger to time travel, not by a long shot, but even so, it wasn't what he thought the answer to that day had been. As much faith he had in his best friend, his self-sacrificial tendencies were something he couldn't help but take notice of. After all, he'd learned from the best, hadn't he?

But it wasn't with bitterness or disdain when he set his gaze on the teen beside him. That wasn't possible; not when he saw every age at once. Not when he was in absolute awe of how far his kid had come. 

"Tails."

"Sonic," Tails answered instinctively, matching his tone with the hint of a crooked smile.

"Thanks for saving him."

Tails blinked and paused the game so he could look at Sonic. In the light from the television screen, green eyes glimmered with a depth that took him back to a younger version of his big bro, who was trying to do everything in his power to be there for him. Because he wanted to be. Because he needed to be.

One tail curled around Sonic's back and draped over his lap, giving back the same reassurance he always gave so freely.

"Anytime, big bro."

Me poking at my various AUs: yet another Ahsoka time-travel fic, this time Jango/Ahsoka/Quinlan

(One of these boys is the rocket launcher on her shoulder, and the other is the stiletto in her boot. Both of them are arm candy.)

Ezra and Fulcrum’s Wacky Adventure

Ezra’s attempt to save Ahsoka on Malachor by fucking around with space-time goes wonky, and the two of them end up in the first year of TCW… with Vader in pursuit.

“You’re Ahsoka… from the future?”

“Sure am, Skyguy.”

“And that’s your padawan.”

“A friend’s padawan. His master died recently, and I’m keeping an eye on him until we figure something out.”

“Right, right… and, uh, mister tall, Dark, and horrifying?”

“Oh, that’s future you.”

“…”

“Yeah, Palpatine’s a Sith Lord and he’s been grooming you for a decade. Shit’s fucked. Anyway, get ready to jump, Vader’s gaining on us.”

I just have this mental image of hyper-competent “I am no Jedi” Fulcrum leading 20yo Anakin and angstiest ever Ezra on a merry ride called “avoid Vader before he kills us all.”

Wow. Don't get me started or I may write something about it. It's perfect!

Time Travel AU (again, I know. get over it) in which the Future Nico looked after his younger self in his homeless days and is the one who sent the dreams to the present Percy Jackson, informing him of what danger the present Nico's in.

I'm loving how I can almost wedge this Time Travel AU into the canon so effortlessly.

Oh how I desperately want to time travel not to change the past, but to just see the dinosaurs and watch the earth change and evolve over billions of years

Perfect Reset

shansome

Summary:

Midoriya Izuku's quirk: Perfect Recall. The ability to relive any part of his past with all five senses isn't exactly the most powerful of quirks. Despite that, Izuku's going to become a hero. Even if he has to essentially fight quirkless.

But then one long, long, day, he meets her. And everything changes.

Or: If Uraraka had a second quirk, one that lets her rewind the entire world back to a specific point. The only catch? Her own memory gets reset along with everyone else-everyone, that is, but a single boy with a weak quirk.

Hello hello,

To all those fanfiction writers out there, who are also part of the linked universe fandom, I have an idea.

A fanfiction where Time and the other links get send back in time, also a different ,,dimension”.

That’s right, they get send to termina.

I think it would be funny if like one of the other links (maybe sky and wild because they are also familiar with time travel) asked time to take a look at the legendary ocarina of time.

They accidentally mess with it (maybe play the song of time or something) and suddenly dawn of the first day.

They all find themself infront of the clock tower.

(Important I would say time stays in his normal body and doesn’t get turned into a child, but honestly whatever suits you more)

But let’s say he stayed the same and they just got turned back in time.

From then on time kinda loses it and I have picture in mind.

Y’all know the movie happy death day 2? Yes, you guessed it. The story, how picture it, kinda could also be an linked universe happy death day AU.

(I mean it would also work if time got turned into child aswell, he’d just had to keep his memory)

That is the rough idea, you can do with it what you want.

I’m not really good at writing fanfictions myself, but here and there I often find myself with ideas for them which I can’t convert.

So I’m giving it to you.

If anyone writes something like this of already has written it please tag me or send to me.

That’s it, bye 🐰

So I was reading a fic (as one does), specifically one about time travel, and it made me realize how weird that would be if it happened. Like, just imagining a future version of myself suddenly appearing in the middle of my living room while I'm reading a book or smth that would freak me out I would actually have no idea what to do-

And in fics where there aren't any superpowers in that universe, it's probably so weird for the characters bc it would be similar to our real life. I've just been thinking about that lol

I'm telling ya, NO better time to back to future yourself then the 2000s lol, especially if you knew your stuff

lesbian velma is canon!

Dear Lord, I need someone to write a fic where all of the first class time travel into the future, like in dark phoenix or apocalypse or anything and they just like… see how fucked up their future is ??

Like, what do you mean Charles is in a wheelchair AND doesn’t have any hair !?

What do you mean Alex and Sean are death ??? Like wtf

And most importantly, WHAT DO YOU MEAN CHARLES AND ERIK ARE NOT MARRIED WITH THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN ?!!

And so, they see all of this and decide to make compromises to be sure that their future will be better. Because a future where they are all separated is not a future they want 😾

Prompt #56

So apparently your time machine is broken. You just wanted to go back to the sixties. Instead there are dinosaurs running around.

I dont know if it has been done yet, but HIGH HIGH HIGGGGGHHH REC for "Somewhere a clock is Ticking" by seven league boots (memphis)!!!!!! like, omg, it was a klance fic that I hadnt even been looking for and got me back all the vld feels without all the problematically argument-forming portions of the recent seasons!!! peeps, please please read and support this wonderful author!!!

Somewhere a Clock is Ticking by seven league boots (memphis) (1/1 | 23,750 | Teen And Up)

This is a story about time travel, lost memories, growing up broken, ukulele lessons, peanut butter banana sandwiches, and a stuffed hippo named Patches.

This is also the story of how James Griffin saved the world, but couldn’t stop his parents from falling in love.
