Dear friends, fellow fans. I present you the Big Damn Bruce/Jason rec list.

It’s earnest, it reflects my tastes, and so it’s not intended as a one-stop resource for Bruce/Jason. For one, we probably don’t have quite the same tastes and I wouldn’t want you to miss on fic you’d like: you may want to stalk [livejournal.com profile] oximore’s memories and those of [livejournal.com profile] dcfic_index (the latter for older stuff) for more options, including my own. /self-pimp There are amazing fics, classics, that I’ve left out.

Warning: every fic on this list should be viewed with the understanding that it comes with a blanket warning for underage and potentially disturbing content. Not all these fics are explicit; not all feature Batman/Robin. But given the characters and the dynamics, I’d rather not accidentally trigger someone. (Most of these fics, of course, come with their own header on the other end of the link.) If the absence of specific warning/ratings on this page make this list useless to you, tell me so and I’ll amend this soon as possible.

rec list of doom for the OTP of DOOM )
The challenge for day 2 is to rec at least three fanworks (fic, art, meta, recipe, tattoo, joke) that you didn’t create, the lesser known the better. I’m not very good at the “the lesser known the better”, I don’t think, but have some anyway.

First of all, I would like to recommend [livejournal.com profile] __marcelo’s fic to anyone interested in DC fandom. His fics are short and amaaaaaaazing. They can be hilarious (Group Think), heartbreaking (Domino), adorable (Trébuchet), or just plain creepy (Inspiration). He writes awesome quasi-meta fics (Perfect) about people in Gotham (When/If), great crossovers between the DCAU and the DCU (Visit) and lots of clever AUs (Truth, Justice, and the American Way) – no, seriously, lots. One of my favourite bit of DC meta/fic ever is this fic about Robins: Prodigies. I’ve missed many of my favourite fics of his there, so take it as a blanket rec.

Also by Marcelo, this Q & A regarding Bruce and Jason, which I heartily recommend to anyone who likes Jason, but especially shippers. No, it's entirely gen-like-canon. *grin*

Take a minute to read one fic, or take an afternoon to go through ALL THE FICS. You won’t be disappointed. (Oh, and check this out: one more thing Cass and Steph have in common about their dads, y/y?)

While on the subject, I am going to pimp again [personal profile] katarik’s fics, but most especially The Red and Running Life, as one of the best perspectives on Cass’ ability to read body language. Like Cass, it is short and amazing. Also by Katarik, this rant/review on Devin Grayson’s contribution to the Batmythos. Written in 2006, it’s almost entirely positive and I read it when I want the fuzzy feelings.

And a last:
Wonders to Perform by [livejournal.com profile] rubynye: a tree grows in the city, and Robins fly through her branches. Because fic about the love story between Gotham, its inhabitants, and the Bats, make me very happy.
