So...I stumbled upon this prompt from the first kinkmeme and I'm wondering if it ever got filled. Because I totally just wrote out a 75-chapter-long plot outline for it before thinking to check. XD

What if the Watchmen was just a game the kids played? How would the story be different and yet the same? How would it be changed to be suitable for coming out of a child's mind ( ... )

OMG, this is awesome. Brilliant start, Anon!

Oooh, this is awesome, can't wait for more. And if you've got any questions about kids, this anon works with that age group.

I might have to take you up on that. XD I was asking around on Twitter and various LJ comms last night as to whether "manipulative" was actually a big word for a 9-year-old. I'm sure more random shit like that will spring up. I'd like to think that what I lack in knowledge of childhood stuff, I make up for in experience with shitty situations (of which there will be plenty once this lot get a bit older).

Glad you like it so far! :D

I think it is, but then, maybe the ones I look after are dumbasses?... ;)

(Sorry about the shitty situation experience.)

It's stopped raining by the next day, but the ground is still muddy and Laurie slips a few times on her way out to the woods to meet Daniel. It's not really woods, just a little area with some trees and dirt, but they call it that because it's the closest thing they've got, and if she's learned anything from books and television it's that all kids should have woods to play in. By the time she gets to the treehouse, the knees of her jeans are damp and dirty, but she doesn't care. It's not really a treehouse, either, more like a lopsided shack half-propped up against a tree rather than in one, but Dan says that still counts, and he built it himself (with some help from Laurie and Jon, while Adrian looked on, most of his 'help' consisting of getting in the way) so if he says so, she's willing to go along with it ( ... )

Daniel perks up at this. He's known Hollis pretty much his whole life, him being such good friends with Laurie's mom, but they had really connected when Hollis and some other policemen had come to give a talk in their class. Ever since then Dan's pretty much idolized the guy. Laurie thinks maybe it's because his own dad's not around too much, and something about Hollis just screams dad. It's a little surprising that he never had kids of his own, actually. He treats them all like his kids, though, Dan especially.

"Come on," Dan says, tossing down his comic. "Let's go play."

Finally. "What do you want to play?" she asks, her book joining his on the slightly haphazard stack ( ... )

Dan walks slowly, feet scuffing on the sidewalk. He doesn't really want to go home, but he doesn;t have much else to do with Laurie gone. His comics are tucked away in his battered backpack, the stories there seeming to pale compared with the excitement of being a superhero himself. He turns over possible names in his head as his feet carry him automatically to Hollis' apartment ( ... )

Oh dear lord, mouth mouth is rotting from this concentrated sugary sweetness. Sweeter than a sugar cube! And Dan toootally being over batman and just everything about this! Eek!

Hah, yeah, the kid years are kinda...diabetic coma inducing. XD The real plot starts when they get into junior high. I'm both eager to get to it and sort of dreading it. XD

Thanks for reading! :)

Whee, more setup stuff! This fic really is writing itself. I was shooting to post one chapter a day and thought that would be difficult, but, well...you can see for yourselves. XD

Dan evades Laurie all day Monday, pausing to say hi before class starts but not meeting up with her at recess as usual. Instead, he wanders around (making sure Laurie doesn't spot him; he doesn't want her to think he's avoiding her on purpose) finally finding the person he's looking for in the far corner of the playground, back propped against a tree, thick book in his lap, bulging backpack open beside him.

"Hi, Adrian," Dan says, settling down cross-legged, back to the chain-link fence, facing his friend.

Adrian looks up from his book, then snaps it shut and smiles at him. "Dan." He's glad for the warm welcome, knowing that Adrian sometimes doesn't like to be bothered when he's reading. He's a bit of a loner and Dan knows a lot of the other kids think he's weird, but he doesn't care. Really doesn't care what they think, and actually likes being alone, ( ... )

"Ozymandias," Adrian says promptly.

Laurie makes a face. "What language is that?"

"Egyptian, I think. I read it somewhere and liked it." The other three share glances, utterly unsurprised by this information.

"It's not really much of a superhero name," she says, and then, seeing Adrian's face fall a bit, adds, "but I guess it's okay. Jon?"

"Doctor Manhattan," he says. "I was a doctor who got blown up in a lab accident and now I have superpowers." He and Adrian have had most of the day to think of their new personas, and clearly they've put the time to good use.

"That doesn't make any sense," Laurie says. "If you're blown up, how come you're here"'Cause I've got superpowers," Jon says simply, "and I...put myself back together ( ... )

Ahaha, but if they don't grow up, how can we get to the OT3 sexin'? Err, I mean, plot. Yes. Plot. >_>

Also, really glad you're liking the long introductions/setup. I was sort of afraid it was too much. (Need to learn to vary my style, all of my actual plot-like stuff starts with this very...hm...traditional, I suppose, exposition. At least it seems to be working here.)
