Hope of Thee (the Zombie Remix)

( Daddy's coming home tomorrow, Kestra said. )

On My First Son
Ben Jonson

Farewell, thou child of my right hand, and joy;
My sin was too much hope of thee, loved boy.
Seven years thou wert lent to me, and I thee pay,
Exacted by thy fate, on the just day.

Oh, could I lose all father now!  For why
Will man lament the state he should envy?
To have so soon ’scaped world’s and flesh’s rage,
And if no other misery, yet age!

Rest in soft peace, and asked, say, Here doth lie
Ben Jonson his best piece of poetry.
For whose sake henceforth all his vows be such
As what he loves may never like too much.

Fic Rec: Remix Edition

I have to rec the fic I got from medie.  It's everything my little TTH drabble series wanted to be when it grew up. It is awesome.  The original is an Angel/Dark Knight crossover, where Gunn moved to Gotham and became an assistant DA who moonlights as a demon-fighter, and then Batman gets turned into an actual bat.  Gotham (the Just When You Think You're Out Remix) is about 1000x more awesome.  Kara!  Zatanna!  Stephanie Brown as a slayer!  More bat!Batman!  Demons in the ceiling!  Seriously, it's awesome, and you must read it.
