Bonus question: Can someone give me an Elisabeth idea, preferably something featuring Sisi herself with a side of Death? She wants fic, I'm fresh out of bunnies.

Just three so far, alas. To my defense, work absolutely pwn3d me today just after I wrote the last post - I ended up staying way longer than regular work hours and I still have a busload to do tomorrow. On the upside, I also have tickets for the 18th for my next dose of fanged crack, so yay. Said crack has also inspired drabbles #2 and #3, because I'm on a permanent vampire high here. Both titles from "Vor dem Schloss/Wohl der Nacht/Wohl dem Mann", the last song in act 1.

In other news, a very happy birthday to _leareth and rkold!

A momentary breather (actually, the day's shaping up better than I thought, and project!boss praised me just now), and a request drabble from too long ago. For kyrre: Bruce/Ducard, demons. 100 words, about 10 minutes tops.

FALL|FLIGHT

In the night, the mountains are silent. The campfire ricochets off the glaciers like neon and halogens at the entrance of Muder Alley. "I do not believe in demons."

Ducard’s fingers wrap around Bruce’s wrist before checking his grip on the rope. They’re close enough to hear each other’s heartbeat. "You should. You’re becoming one."

Bruce steps off the ledge into darkness. The rope is a whip, a command, finding purchase where there should be none. In the instant before gravity and legend grip him, a thought flashes through his head.

He can’t be a demon.

Demons fall.

FINIS

I’ve been thinking – and yes, this is more Bat-meta, just because I missed everyone else’s due to the film not being out yet. Anyway.

It’s the perennial question of book vs movie canon. In this case, it’s a big characterization difference between the two, and in the main character at that.

In other news, a list I’m on has been discussing Myers-Briggs personality types. I’ve done the full test long ago, and I’m a picture-perfect ENTP. Q, Bugs Bunny, Garfield – take your pick. Go me.

I just saw Batman Begins again, in IMAX no less. Mmm, Liam with crystal-clear surround sound <3

Story Synopsis: Answer to the Matrix crossover challenge. Nightwing in a digital world remains himself.

SPOILERS: Information revealed in Matrix: Reloaded, but not the exact events, since the timeline's pre-Reloaded.

Disclaimer: Nightwing, the man who was the boy who was Robin, belongs to DC Comics, Bob Kane and whoever. The Matrix, which is not a revelation but a nice world with an impressive gallery of characters, belongs to the Wachowski Brothers, WB and whoever. I only tied them together.
