Let's get crackin'

Summary:

This is a silly little story told via AO3 emails and text messages, based on that one tumblr post which was like "what if Jason had an AO3 account with a 300k long Pride and Prejudice fanfic" and I went "well what if Helicopter Parent Bruce was subscribed to it and that's how he found out Jason was alive?"

aka the excuse to figure out how to mimic an AO3 email in skinform

Notes:

[EDIT 14th May 2024: nooooo FUCK the images broke and no one thought to tell me?? discord fucking everything over for real 😩 bear with me while I figure out which images exactly those were o7]

 

This was genuinely created during a random period of "i wonder if i could use html and css to mimic an AO3 email" which then spiralled into "well now that i have so much already, might as well-" 😂

Honestly tho, the only reason i am posting this is bc i went to my main page today and what do i see? "Drafts (1)" and i'm like, since when do i have a draft?

And then i open it and OH right i was doing that code thing! On august 19th. It's September 18th. AO3 only keeps drafts for a month. POSTING NOW

It is in no way shape or form finished, but it's crack with pretty much no plot, so it should be fine. Might come back later and add some stuff (if any of you want to drop ideas, i might use those, collaborative crack is my favourite genre)

without further ado, enjoy this silly little thing i made just to see if i could <3

(See the end of the work for other works inspired by this one.)

by Gentlemans_son

Chapter Summary:

sorry for dropping off the face of the earth for the past, like, 4 years, but i promise i had a really good reason!

it's going to sound crazy but i promise i'm not lying

so y'all know i'm a gothamite, right? and we've got this crazy clown here, and every time he gets out of the asylum, he goes off to murder someone.

turns out it was my turn ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

but dw i got better! i kind of wandered the streets for a while (oh, yeah, cuz i kinda had to crawl out of my grave? it took me like half a year to come back to be fair, you can't just keep the body of your dead kid around for that long) but then a nice (for a given value of "nice") lady kidnapped me and made me not be catatonic anymore, but it came at the price of this green fog constnatly fogging my brain so it took a while to remember my ao3 password

but I'm back now!

i kind of lost my notebook where i plotted out this fic. Like, I know where it should be (back in my room), but dad adopted another kid while i was gone so they probably threw everything out to make space for the new perfect kid. no i'm not salty shut up

and my memory's not the best anymore, but I felt bad about leaving it abandoned, so. I wrote down what I could remember of the plot so you can get at least some kind of closure.

i hope you'll like it!
