Okay, so, here's the song list in order. I don't have any art for it, and I don't have a download link (yet!), but I've put in youtube links for the songs I could find there.

This is arranged to follow the development of the relationship between Pied Piper and Trickster, following canon but injecting a love affair into it. I will try to explain why I chose each song.

( Ten songs, with varying amounts of transcribed lyrics and my explanation, under the cut. )

~FIN~

Okay, so last September there was Gay As In Happy: A Queer Characters Comment Fic-A-Thon (I posted a link to it then), and people posted many prompts! Like this Mystique/Destiny one! But very few got answered. I mean, there are 3 pages of comments, and only 4 prompts were answered (I counted). None of mine were answered, and so, I am reposting them here. Perhaps someday I will write something for them myself.

(But if you'd like to give it a try, go right ahead.)

1.
Flashpoint DCU, Hartley & Wally, Hartley comes out

(I imagine Hart came out to Wally much sooner and differently than in the pre-Flashpoint/reboot DCU, since they grew up together.)

2.
Captain America comicsverse, Arnie/Michael, love is my anti-drug.

3.
Invaders/WWII Marvel-verse, Brian Falsworth(/Roger Aubrey) & Jackie Falsworth, I love to see you happy.

And that's it! *jazz hands*

Okay, so back in the summer of 2011 I made a Pipster or Pied Piper & Trickster fanmix. (Which I never shared, because I'm not sure quite how to go about it, I feel like maybe I should make album art, and I suspect I'd have to explain waaaaay more of my personal interpretation of certain metaphysical aspects of Trickster's history than a fanmix really merits.) I just listened to it again for the first time in months, and it still works for me. (So maybe I will work on those issues and eventually share it.)

Now, in my playlists I have one marked "Pipster" and one marked 'Pipster not used", and the latter is basically just the songs that I associate with one or both of the characters, their relationships and shenanigans, etc., but didn't use because the list I finally went with provides a better sort of quasi-narrative continuity, to me.

"Pipster" is 10 songs long.

"Pipster not used" is 22 songs long.

That's more than twice as long! This strikes me as really funny. maybe I should make another couple of playlists? XD ~~I could make one of just songs with the theme of running.~~

Title: Artistic Competition
Summary: How the Pied Piper of the Batman: the Brave and the Bold universe reacts to the Music Meister.

( Why do the DC dudes that use music to control people all wear green, anyway? )
.

1. Rictor/Shatterstar (comicsverse, now)

( BoomBoom was visiting X-Factor Investigations )

2. Bucky!Cap

( What Captain America could expect on October 11th )

3. Flash family

( Iris explains some things )

.

Title: Gobsmacked
Fandoms in the fandom: Flash (particularly the bits where Piper became the default go-to gadgeteer for ALL the Flash family -- seeing Wally, Jay, Johnny, Jesse, Bart and Max all crowded into his workshop was all kinds of hilarious to me), JSA (because Jay!), Knight & Squire (which is where I learned about The Time In A Bottle superperson pub and its peculiar properties; this fic takes place before the mini-series, though).
A/N: Thanks to

lizblackdog for britpicking this for me!

Title: Toon In
Characters: Hartley Rathaway (Pied Piper) and James Jesse aka Giovanni Giuseppe (Trickster)

( With those characters, do I even need to warn you for bad puns, or is it a given? )

( possibly pipster musings )

Title: Merry Messenger
Summary: An early encounter between Piper and Trickster.

( This just popped into my head and seemed like fun. )

As soon as I read this story, I knew I had to share the link with as many people as possible.

Ballroom Blitz is a fanfic about the original Teen Titans, back when Donna dressed like she is in my icon. This is story where our intrepid teen heroes call in some help to save the day, in the unusual form of Flash rogue the Pied Piper. It's a wonderful mix, and even though katze has technically set this in her on-going "happyverse", I can very much see this story as something that could have happened in the canon DCU. Everyone's characterization is spot-on for the time period -- or maybe I should say "note perfect"!

And, if you're a fan of the later friendship between Wally and Piper, you should definitely give this story a look!

;3

eta: sequel! Or, at least, next story in the line! Kris Kringle (I am sensing an alliterative impulse). Wally catches Piper doing some Rogues-style Christmas "shopping" and helps him distribute the gifts. *hugs the fic*
