Comment on As Long As You're Alive, I Am Not Forgotten

  1. Lol Tim getting called tall for the first and probably last time in his life xD

    Jason: He's just twelve!
    Karen, staring at the very obviously not 12yo local celebrity: Are you sure about that?

    The thought of Jason coming back from the dead just to go on Master Chef is absolutely hilarious. Like "Yea, I was dead but look at this!" and throws jazz hands towards a dish he made.

    “You gonna make a wish or whatever?”
    “Don’t have to.”
    Screaming and crying, 10/10.

    No one else wishing Tim happy birthday is so heartbreaking 💔
    I could definitely see Jason going after the rest of family for not saying anything but also him asking what Tim would prefer was sweet

    Btw how dare you make me crave lasagna when I don't have any :/

    Amazing work! Excited for the next part 💛🌼

    1. Tim: Having height? In this family? Impossible.

      Jason is the brother who will tell the people at the front of a restaurant that this is in fact, his twelve (or thirteen) year old brother and needs a kids meal. He's also either the "He asked for no pickles" dude or the guy someone else says that for depending on the person he's with.

      Tim and Jason say that they'll be unavailable for about ten weeks and disappear off the face of the earth only to reappear afterwards. The new season of Master Chef comes out a few months later and the family is shook that Jason won.
      Jason makes the best risotto ever seen on the show, and he has the smuggest grin when he's walking back to his station.
      Jason's dish is getting judged. It's great, and he's told as much. From the balcony of people above the studio, Tim starts yelling like "I told your zombie ass you could do it! Didn't I tell you? You're doing great!"
      And the judges look in Tim's direction, and Jason just goes "That's my emotional support sibling...I couldn't get rid of him even if I tried to."
      One contestant tries to trash-talk Jason, snarking something like "What's the white streak for? Trying to be a special little emo?" And Jason, absolutely deadpan, just "It actually turned white from the stress of being kidnapped and tortured for multiple years :)" and that shuts the others up real quick XD
      Jason refusing to let the makeup department choose what clothes he wears on set or do any make-up on him. So, in a few episodes, he's just cooking in a leather jacket and sweatpants. Tim paid him to wear flip-flops once.
      Him making death/torture/kidnapping jokes near constantly.
      Tim was correct. The memes are amazing XDDD

      Tim "I silently beg for scraps of affection on the regular" Drake suddenly getting showered in good things by a single person. He's a happy bean at the moment, and Jason may or may not be ready to sob.

      Considering Tim's reason was pretty much "I don't want to rock the boat or have them get mad at you", Jason's probably gonna blast them anyway...I'm thinking about writing a Jason pov for what happens after Tim fell asleep. It'd be interesting since Jason's take on things would be very different from Tim's, and he's not too afraid of irritating the others anyway.

      If it makes you feel any better, I also don't have any lasagna on hand :( XD

      Really glad you liked it! :D 💙

      1. Omg pls i love this. A Jasons POV of Jason just going after the whole batfam for daring to forget about HIS little brother would be amazing and would give the whole family a horrifying wake-up call to how theyve been treating Tim.

        Also, the end was so heartbreaking with Tim checking his messages over and over again and resigning himself to being forgotten again. But Jasons reaction was like, surely not, surely they wouldn’t have forgotten something important as his own birthday. Surely I, the one who has tried to kill him multiple times, am not the only one to have even acknowledged his existence today.

        Timmy u deserve better 💔😭

        your writing is so amazing I love it so much thank you for continuing this series 💛

        1. I've actually added another chapter to this fic because Jason is poking me with his pov and not leaving me alone xD So, you will definitely get that :D

          Fun fact: The tension in Jason's shoulders that Tim noticed but didn't notice stemmed from the fact that Tim hadn't gotten any messages, and Jason was Concerned about that. He got angrier every time Tim checked his phone to find it absolutely empty (from everyone, mind you. not just the batfam this time).

          Tim checking his messages with increasingly unhidden desperation before just giving up is such a gut punch, and Jason's left watching it and seeing the family chat move on without either of them. Jay's so mad, he doesn't know whether to punch a wall, scream, or sob in a corner...but he's got a little bird sleeping on him. So, he can't do any of those things.

          He does ;-; Better is on the way though! Jason will make sure of that.

          I'm really glad you like it! :D This series is very fun, and I'll keep working on it when I can ^_^

      2. I can definitely see Jason standing behind the counter menacing, pointing at a friend or family members, going "He asked for no pickles." But also someone else pointing to Jason, this behemoth of a man, sitting quietly in a booth and saying the same thing about him :D

        Jason and Tim disappear for months and the others think they're on a mission and only find out what they were doing much later xD

        Jason would 100% become the fan favorite and people would make fan edits of him. There would also be memes about this fucking gremlin yelling from the balcony and interrupting the show >:)

        Tim and Jason both being in their feels from showing and receiving affection to each other and just not commenting on it is both very sweet and sad 😭🫶🏼

        Please I really need POV of Jason ripping them a new one or making them feel ashamed!

        Comment Actions
        1. Jason with Tim: He asked for no pickles, and if I see any even near his food, I'll break your fingers.
          Roy with Jason, finally making him take it easy for once: My friend over there has a problem with pickles. If you want to keep your body arrow-free, I suggest leaving them off :)
          Jason, Tim, and Roy together: Roy-These two sad, wet birds are my friends and I'll fight the pickles off with a stick if I have to.

          Also, now I'm just thinking of Tim and Roy (who I don't think know each other much?) meeting and getting along like a house on fire. Just...the Outlaws stealing Tim, and Jason couldn't be happier about this development....maybe that'll be another installment..hmmm...

          Jason and Tim: We were on a mission...for fame and riches through food! :D
          Batfam:....what

          There would absolutely be fan edits and youtube compilations of "Jason Todd-Wayne's best Master Chef moments". The only reason Tim doesn't get kicked off the show is because he keeps paying them to let him stay. Not an episode goes by without him making some sort of unhinged comment. Everyone chalks it up to Gothamites being completely bonkers and Not Normal. Memes of Tim and Jason start circulating like wildfire. That's how Bruce finds out about Master Chef. He sees a meme of Jason calmly cooking a salmon fillet with a concentrated look on his face while a slightly-blurry Tim is perching on the balcony railing and screeching in the background, captioned "The intrusive thoughts when I'm trying to work"

          They'll get to the talking part of it at some point, but they're just taking baby steps with action first. They're so sweet but like...they're both kinda forgotten and semi-depressed when left alone and drown their emotions in work so like....They need this :')

          Jason's been poking me with snippets of his POV. So, it will happen soon enough XD He'll be 100% ripping into them :D

          1. Yeeees Tim getting adopted by the outlaws, that would be so cool. I've seen fics that talk about Tim and Roy both being into building gadgets and I think that would be so cool for them to bond over. Also their love of Jason.

            Your meme idea about Tim being Jason's intrusive thoughts was so funny that I had to pause reading your reply, laugh for like a minute, go find my fiance and read the whole plot about tim and jason going on master chef from multiple comments, and only after that I was able to come back to finish the comment. 10/10

            Hell yea for Jason ripping into them 😎

            1. Tim + Roy making gadgets together = Jason will never know peace again.
              Jason and Roy playing tug-of-war with Tim to see who gets him for the week.
              Roy coming into Gotham significantly more often to take his "Kind of nephew" on "bonding trips" (aka, vacations where Roy actually has an excuse to make Jason and Tim sit on their butts and take a break).
              Roy just generally being the fun uncle/best bro in their goofy little explosion-happy family.
              Tim coming up with new arrow ideas that are so unhinged and chaotic that Roy has to implement them (What do you mean putting taipan venom in an arrow isn't a good threat option?) XD
              Roy being mildly concerned that Tim might turn Lian into a baby supervillain. She wants to fight with a bo staff now.
              Lian calling Tim "Uncle Timmy" for the first time, and Jason has to hold Tim for a solid half hour as he cries because "Yeah that happened to me too, Timmers. Big shock amiright?"
              All I'm doing is literally just making more installment ideas for myself iowihlowihow XD

              Tim is the intrusive thoughts that Jason does his best not to acknowledge but fails anyway. Jason is the intrusive thoughts that brings out even more of Tim's chaotic gremlin energy and tendency to commit warcrimes. They bring out the "worst" (most chaotic) sides of each other, and the family suddenly doesn't know what to do with them xD
              Honored that my idea made you laugh so much XDD I hope your fiance liked it too 🤣🤣

              Jason-shaped revenge is a dangerous thing >:D

              1. Stooopp you're making me want to write Roy into my fic too!!

                I would love it if you wrote about Tim, Jason, Roy and Lian fucking around together, they would make such a cute little found family and you have such great ideas! 💞

                As some with no kids of my own but with a friend who has a 5yo, having a kid latch onto you as an approved safe and fun person is so heart warming 😭

                Jason and Tim would just egg each other on, just make each other more and more unhinged and I love them for it. The rest of the batfamily looking at them like what the fuck do we do about that? Can we do anything about that? Maybe we should just leave them be.

                I think my fiance found it amusing but he was also busy waiting for his turn to infodump about Deltarune :D

                1. XD Now that you mention it- I have multiple ideas that could apply to your fic. I will refrain unless you want to know xD

                  Now that I've typed it into existence, it's just inevitable now :') Maybe installment five or so...

                  Awww that's so sweet :D Now, I'm just thinking of Roy and Jason looking at each other, then looking at Tim amusing Lian, and then back at each other. Jason's like "So you agree with me, right?" And Roy just nods solemnly and "Oh yeah, he's definitely just a little guy. I'm glad you've brought him to my attention." He's just a baby bird to them, even though he's only like...a year and eleven months younger than Jason XDD

                  Awww, we love being able to infodump about our interests to our loved ones in this household :D xD My single butt cries in a corner at the notion XD

                  1. Oooh do tell 👀

                    The amount of installments just keep rising... >:D

                    "But he's just a baby!" "He's not even much younger than you, what are you talking about??"

                    1. I'll throw it in my response to your response on your fic to keep it straight XDD

                      At this point, it'll never end...My long fics are crying and screaming for attention and I'm just here...standing...currently working on Chapter 2 for this fic as I type XD

                      "But he's so tiny! A baby bird!" "Jason, buddy, by that logic, since you and I have a larger age gap than you and Tim, then that would, in my eyes, qualify you as a tiny baby bird too...you get that right?" "....but he's just a little guy who needs love and hugs "Jason...so are you
                      Roy's about to have his hands full really xD

                      1. Going back an forth in two different comment sections has become kind of a mess but I'm having so much fun :D

                        I don't think I've ever talked this much with people in my fandoms that aren't people I know in real life and I've been having such a good time 💛🌼

                        "With that logic you would also be a little baby bird."
                        "No ❤️."

                        1. It is, but as long as I keep my inbox open to differentiate, I'm good XD I'm also having a really fun time. A grand time even :D 💙

                          Same :'D I know exactly zero people in real life who like this sort of content or the batfam like I do, and sometimes it's really sad having so many ideas that I share with no one in-person. People like you who respond back and forth with me are like a breath of fresh air, because I don't have any other platforms and it's like a whole "I have no mouth but I must scream" situation...but it's batfam xD

                          "I'm literally like...almost five years older than you."
                          "But I'm big so...your logic doesn't work."

                          Roy starts calling him 'baby bird 2' from then on. or just...other baby birdish things. Birdlette, Hatchling, Egg. I feel like he'd call Jason "Egg" the most. Just a gut feeling...XD

                          1. I have like one friend who is also into dc but not really so much the batfamily so mostly I just rant about my blorbos to people who know fucking nothing about dc 😭

                            Would you wanna be friends? 👀🌼 (Sorry I have no idea how you're supposed to make friends online xD)

                            "I have no mouth but I must scream" situation...but it's batfam
                            I want that on a t-shirt

                            Jason is a good egg 🥚❤️

                            1. Aww so close but so far 😭😭 As someone who once tried something like that, the awkward smile and nod is too crushing for me :')

                              Honestly, I'd love to, but I don't have better communication than this :') I could probably make an author's corner or something. That'd probably be less annoying for people (not too sure on comment etiquette here. Comment convos could be totally normal or the most taboo thing, and I wouldn't know xD) If only ao3 had a pm system or something :[

                              XD Put it in the quote book! It's how I feel with all of the blorbos I love. "I have no mouth but I must scream about baby birds and blorbos being fluffy"

                              ...I'm now highly considering having someone call Jason a good egg sometime. Because he absolutely is a good egg. Maybe a little cracked and hard-boiled, but definitely still good.
                              *Gasp* What if Roy saw them sitting on the couch together and just called them "eggs in a nest". Adorable little guys.

                              1. What's an author's corner? Or what do you mean by that?

                                I have no idea either if long comment threads are like okay or not but I love getting the og tumblr experience from the comments just getting slimmer and slimmer as we go on xD

                                Eggs in a nest would be so cute! 💞

                                Also private messages on ao3 would be cool but I understand that there isn't cuz it isn't like a social media platform or anything

                                1. From what I've seen (which isn't much but it's what I've got xD), author's corners are like...made the same way fics are, but they're made specifically for the author to talk about stuff, like ideas for new fics, polling fic ideas, writing little drabbles that wouldn't be enough for a fic, take questions from readers, that kind of stuff. The comment amount wouldn't be a problem. Plus, it could probably be really useful for me in the case of "I have so many ideas I want to write. I'll throw them up here and see what people think" xD I'd probably link it to all of my fics and make it a thing only registered users could see. But, I think that's the gist of them. :D

                                  xD I've never been on tumblr, let alone when this format was the norm, but I'm glad it's amusing. It's always something to see the comment box size dwindle to nothing xD

                                  Yeah, I get why they don't have a messaging thing either. Not like this is a forum, and there's already the comments anyway.

                                    It would make sense to have something like that, it sounds pretty useful 🤔

                                    1. No worries! :D

                                      Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. I could also drop fic ideas there to gauge what people's thoughts are on them and also so I don't forget xD It could be a fun thing.
