The Romantic Machinations of Timmy the Elf… by Anonymous (PG)
Fandom: DC COMICS
Pairing: Tim Drake/Cassandra Cain; Bruce Wayne/Selina Kyle; Dick Grayson/Barbara Gordon.
Author on LJ: N/A as the author was anonymous.
Author Website: N/A
Why this must be read:
First of all, the title in its entirety is The Romantic Machinations of Timmy the Elf Who Didn't Want to be a Dentist, and his Faithless Sidekick, Yukon Cassandra OR A Story in which Dick and Babs are Doomed. Just wanted to get that long title out of the way first, since there was no way that whole thing would fit into the subject.
This story is just so hysterical that you will most likely laugh until you cry at certain points. When it looks like Dick and Babs are going to break up, Tim and Cass decide to try to manipulate things so that they will see just how much they love each other and get back together. Somehow. By Christmas, which isn’t that far off--hence the elf part of the title.
And, naturally, a lot of things go horribly wrong in the process.
"You know how Bruce went to South America this morning...?"
"No."
"What?"
"Tell me he did not leave me with one of his Brucie obligations. TELL ME THERE ARE NO BRUCIE OBLIGATIONS!"
"There's a Brucie obligation."
"Dammit! What is it? Charity ball? Auction? It's the OPERA, isn't it? I knew it. It's the opera. Dammit, why doesn't the man ever have to go to, like...spaghetti dinners or anything? Crud."
"Well...it's not the opera."
"Yeah? Opening pitch? Is he throwing an opening pitch somewhere?"
"Dick, it's December."
"A MAN CAN HOPE!"
