Sweet Chocolate Loving by Coldqueen (G)
Fandom: JUSTICE LEAGUE ANIMATED
Pairing/Characters: Huntress/The Question
Length: One-Shot
Author on LJ: Personal Journal:
cold_queen_5, Fic Journal:
cold_fic
Author Website: none
Author Summary: Huntress and Question argue about dinner.
Why this must be read: The idea of the vigilante superhero is at once inspiring and frightening. One one hand, you have a superhuman being who's above law enforcement and on the other... well, you have to wonder how much you can trust someone who's beyond the reaches of the law.
The Huntress and The Question are both superheroes who straddle that moral line between 'good' and 'evil', the latter having almost murdered the President of the United States on a hunch, and the other having been kicked out of the League for her aggressive methodology. They're also in a canon relationship, something you wouldn't really expect when pairing an obsessive, faceless conspiracy theorist with a crossbow-shooting, Gothamite femme fatale. Even more surprising, the pairing's cute and also rather effective.
cold_queen_5 shows us how it works, mixing Huntress's snark and Question's never-ending conspiracy theories into an innocently ordinary situation to create something comedic, amusing and humanizing.
"Chinese?"
"Too much MSG. Clogs the arteries, releases endorphins, and causes religious ideas. The Catholic Church is currently investigating to see if there's a way to use it to form a deeper symbiotic relationship between parishioners and the church via MSG in the Body of Christ wafers they give out."
