GOD I WANT TO SEE THEM ALL GROVELL! EVEN DENT! I LOVE IT !

"The moon"

ok ya'll! I know I said I'm doing another chapter of this is me trying (and I am) buttttt I read @i-cant-sing's time traveler AU and I could not stop thinking about it. I'm muslim and it's Ramadan and I realized I have free will to write whatever I want, SO i present to you a platonic yandere story set in the Ottoman Empire. kinda based on real people and events, but a lot of things are just my imagination! I am NOT a history buff, I just enjoy historical things, if something is wrong, feel free to politely correct me. The main character is a female and does have a name (Esmira) and face type BUT i try not to go into her too much so you can imagine what you like. Credits to @i-cant-sing, it was their writing that inspired me! check out their works, they're really talented! I DO NOT SPEAK TURKISH, ALL MY KNOWLEDGE IS GOOGLED AND SURFACE LEVEL.

Ottoman Empire, Istanbul

Year 1524

I was my father’s moon.

"Benim ayım."

He called me that when I nestled against his side, his arms encircling me as he listened to my childish recitation of the Qur’an, my voice small yet steady. “My little moon,” he would murmur, pressing a kiss to my forehead when I finished. “No one recites as beautifully as my Esmira.”

To me, he was not Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent. The Lawgiver, the formidable warlord. To me, he was my beloved Baba.

I would giggle, curling my fingers into the folds of his kaftan. I never sat apart from him, never kept a polite distance. When we dined, I ate off his plate, tearing bread from his own hands, dipping it into his soup the way I had since I was old enough to chew.

"You will spoil her, Hünkârım," my mother, Medriveh, would say from across the room, watching as my father lifted me onto his lap, letting me pick the ripest dates from his tray.

"She is already spoiled," he would reply, laughter deep in his chest. And he would not send me away. He never sent me away.

I prayed with him, every dawn and every dusk, my small voice whispering after his as we kneeled on the prayer rugs. When my hands trembled in the cold, he would clasp them in his own, warming them against his palms.

"When you are older, you will have a place beside me," he had told me once, his thumb tracing circles over my knuckles. "Even when I go to war, my moon will stay in my sky."

I believed him.

When he rode through the palace gates on his great black stallion, I was the only one out of my siblings- Mustafa, Selmin, Mehmed, and Layla- he lifted onto the saddle before him. I would press my cheek to his chest, feeling his laughter rumble beneath my ear as he held the reins in one hand, keeping me close with the other.

I thought it would always be like that. I thought nothing could take me from him.

I was wrong.

My mother never hit me.

She did not need to.

Her weapons were sharper than any blade, her words precise and cruel, cutting deep where no one could see.

"You embarrass me, Esmira," she would sigh, pinching the bridge of her nose whenever I stumbled in my lessons or tripped over my skirts. "Must you always follow your brothers like a stray dog? They have no use for you."

"I just want to be with them."

"They do not want to be with you."

Her disappointment weighed heavier than any slap.

I had always adored Mustafa, Selmin, and Mehmed. I ran after them in the gardens, trailed them through the halls, sat at their feet as they practiced swordplay.

I wanted to be part of their world, to belong with them as I had once belonged with my father.

But they were always too fast, too sharp, too indifferent.

"Go away, Esmira." Selmin’s voice was rough, barely sparing me a glance as he wiped sweat from his brow, his sword resting against his shoulder. "We are not playing games."

"I can learn too!"

"You are not a soldier." Mustafa did not even look at me, already turning back to his sparring partner. "You are not even useful."

Mehmed was the only one who pretended to care, giving me his easy, careless smile.

"Little sister, you should be with the women," he said, flicking my forehead with two fingers. "We are busy."

"I just want to be near you."

"Then sit quietly. Do not make a fuss."

So I did. I sat in the dirt, in the sun, in the cold. I waited for them to acknowledge me.

They never did.

Layla was everything I was not. Four years older than me, and stunning. The true daughter of a Sultan

She was graceful where I was clumsy, beautiful where I was plain, loved where I was ignored.

"Your sister was never like this," my mother would say as she brushed my hair, her touch firm and impersonal. "She knew how to behave, how to walk, how to be wanted."

Layla was desired by all who saw her. Even the women in the harem whispered about her, about her elegance, her cruelty, her charm.

"You are fat, Esmira," she told me one afternoon, watching as I struggled to fit into the new silk kaftan our mother had gifted me. "And slow. And foolish."

"You are my sister," I whispered. "You should love me."

She only smiled.

"Love is earned, little one. And you have done nothing to earn it."

Then, one day, a week after my tenth birthday everything changed. I was going to my father, to try and capture his attention again when I heard her. My mother.

"She is useless, Hünkârım. If you will not marry her off, then send her away."

I pressed my back against the lattice screen, breath trapped in my chest. I was too young to marry. Baba always said he would wait till I was eighteen. That he would keep me forever if I wanted.

"To where?" He replied sharply.

"To the Greeks," my mother said smoothly, as if my fate was nothing more than a chess piece being moved across the board. "The Basileus of Morea wishes for an Ottoman princess as a ward. A peace offering."

"She is only a child, Mehdrivan."

"She is a disgrace."

Silence. A silence so deep it felt like the air itself had stopped moving.

Then, finally, the words that destroyed me.

"Fine."

The world blurred around me. My heart slammed against my ribs, a desperate, caged thing trying to claw its way out. I waited till my mother had left, till i could no longer hear her cruelty.

No. No, no, no.

I did not think. I ran.

I burst into my father’s chamber, barefoot, breathless, trembling.

He stood near the window, his hands clasped behind his back, gazing down at the courtyard below. The glow of the setting sun burned against his silhouette, making him seem even larger, more untouchable.

I was eight again, running to him after falling in the gardens, scraped knees and teary eyes, knowing he would pick me up, soothe me, call me his moon.

But I was not eight. And he did not turn.

"Baba!" I cried, voice breaking.

Slowly, he turned to me.

For a moment, just a moment, his face softened. But it was gone in an instant, replaced by the unreadable mask of a ruler, not a father.

"Esmira," he said, his voice even, measured. Distant.

I did not hesitate—I threw myself at his feet.

"Baba, please!" I clutched at the hem of his kaftan, my nails digging into the silk as if I could physically hold myself to him. "I will be good—I will do better! I don’t want to go! I don’t know their language, their God—they will kill me! Let me stay! I love you, Baba! I will stay by your side forever!"

His hands curled into fists at his sides.

"Stand up, Esmira."

"No!" I sobbed into the fabric of his robes, shaking my head, pressing my forehead to his knee like a beggar at the steps of a mosque. "Please, please, please, I will do anything! I will stop following my brothers, I will stop embarrassing you, I will be what you want, just don’t send me away!"

Nothing.

Not a touch. Not a word.

I felt his silence like a blade slicing through me.

"I do not care about peace!" I cried, hands fisting against him. "I only care about you!"

Finally, finally, he spoke.

"You must go, Esmira. It is for the good of the empire."

Something deep inside me cracked—so violently I swore I heard it echo in the vast, empty space of the chamber.

I recoiled from him, stumbling back.

"You are my father!" My breath came in ragged, uneven gasps. "I am your daughter! I am not a pawn for your empire!"

He did not move. He did not reach for me.

"You are a princess of the Ottoman Empire." His voice was hard, cold. A warlord’s voice, not a father’s. "You will do your duty."

I shook my head, tears burning like acid down my cheeks.

"If you send me away, I will never love you again."

Something flickered in his eyes.

"Esmira—"

"I swear to God, Baba!" My voice rose in fury, in anguish, in something too deep to name. "I swear by Allah Himself, if you listen to my mother, if you send me away, I will never forgive you! Never! You will not be my father anymore!"

His nostrils flared. His lips pressed into a thin line.

"You will not speak to me that way."

"You are not listening to me!"

I was screaming now, screaming as if the force of my voice alone could bring him back to me.

"I will hate you for the rest of my life!"

And then—he struck me.

The first slap sent me reeling. The second tore the breath from my lungs.

My ears rang. My vision blurred.

I staggered back, stunned, unable to process what had just happened.

He had never hit me before.

Never.

Not once in my entire life.

His sons had felt his hand before—when they disobeyed, when they failed, when they acted recklessly. But not me.

Never me.

I stared up at him, at the man who had once held me in his arms, who had once called me his moon.

I did not recognize him.

He was no longer my Baba—he was Sultan Suleiman, the Great Turk, the Shadow of God on Earth, the warlord who crushed enemies beneath his heel and ruled an empire with an iron fist.

And now, I was afraid of him.

His expression shifted. Regret flickered in his gaze. His hands trembled as he reached for me.

"Esmira—"

I flinched.

I flinched away from him.

For the first time in my life, I feared my own father.

The moment stretched between us, heavy, suffocating.

I saw the realization dawn on him—saw the way his chest rose sharply, saw the way his hands fell to his sides, saw the guilt carve into his face like stone.

But I did not give him the chance to take it back.

I turned and ran.

I did not stop running.

Not when I reached the halls. Not when the guards called after me. Not when my mother’s voice echoed in the distance.

I ran until my lungs burned, until the cold air cut through my thin silk dress, until the world blurred into nothing but streaks of gold and blue and white.

The moon above me was full and bright, casting silver light across the palace gardens.

I pressed my forehead to the earth, fingers digging into the soil.

"I will come back."

The words left my lips like a prayer.

"I swear it."

"And when I do, I will never love you again."

OKKK YA'LL??? WHAT DO YA'LL THINK??? YOU LIKE??? I TRIED SO HARD ON THIS SO PLS BE NICE! I'M KINDA SCARED TO PUT THIS OUT BC ITS NOT MY USUAL CONTENT AND I CHANGED MY WRITING STYLE A BIT, BUT I HOPE IT INTERESTS PEOPLE!! Likes, comments, asks and reblongs are always appreciated, also the platonic yanderes in this story are Sultan Suleiman, Sultana Medrivah, Sehzade Mehmed, Mustafa, and Selmin!

also, yk ur writings good when u got ppl in ur dms and asks telling u its AI. Like bitch please, I spend HOURS thinking of plots and dialougue only to have some random anon saying its AI????? like be fr.

I made an au of your ‘I bet on losing dog’ it’s only a bit personally but I really wanted to share the idea now.

It’s just that reader is completely different. Instead of having snake like abilities she’s basically a super genius that cares a lot about her family but after Tiffany came in she just decided it didn’t matter that much after all. She started abusing the fact that she’s a Wayne and started funding numerous of her projects mostly about a space station and some for personally research materials. So many things happening all at once that Tiffany couldn’t keep and she slip, I imagine she’s trying to hack in Reader’s personal stuff in order to track and keep an eye on her(to see what’s more to steal from her) reader on the other hand is amused and decided to do some digging. She’s the one who finds out the stuff Tiffany is doing but she didn’t do anything about it. Not her circus not her problem.

Eventually some of her projects launch of and in order to lay low decided to present it in a different name and a her own company which she made sure doesn’t trace her back to the Wayne’s. Due to the success of her own company she completely cut off ties from the Wayne and then her space station successfully launch as well. It’s made the headlines cause the station is so futuristic it’s like it came from a sci-fi movie or book. Reader got connected to some very powerful people cause she still need the money after all and all she needed to do is make weapons for them. And if some of her clients will be using them against a certain batfamily she didn’t really care.

Eventually she found out that the batfam is looking for her and Tiffany is suddenly. It didn’t take a genius hah to figure out what happened. And she’s so excited because she’s been WAITING for this. She made a hyper realistic droid that is 100% her clone. Its purpose? To terrorize the Waynes. The plan? To have clone do exactly what Tiffany had been doing but this time she’s going to make sure she did it BETTER.

Just slapping them in the face with “You never care before so why start now? You’re only doing this because of your guilt. Would you still feel the same way if I had done the same as SHE did? What now? Are you still going to vie for my forgiveness when I did something so DESPICABLE.”

That’s basically the gist of it

this is GREAT!!! i’m so flattered that you put so much thought into it, it’s awesome! it’s not really my writing style or type of prompt tho 😭😭

i would try and write it just to give it a shot but i already have like 3 stories so i wanna put out another chapter of Older! i’m sorry :( THANK YOU THOUGH 💕💕💕💕

Helll r u hereeeee!! Poo we missss uuuu

heyyyy girl! no im still here! just in the hospital with pneumonia!

hi, I just thought that the songs Bloody Mary by lady Gaga and Oh No! By Marina reminded me of Y/N. There good songs, I hope you have a listen :)

i know these songsssss and yeah they do remind me of reader tbh

I’d like to ask if we as the readers can decide the gender of reader? It’s totally okay if not- but in my mind Reader is akin to Double Trouble from Shera.

yes!! of course you can!! i do use female pronouns for reader bc it’s just easier for me to write but you and imagine whatever you want 🫶

I love your story and your concept🥰🥰🥰 but i really need that Steph and Cass suffer too because wtf🥲😅.

I don't i need to say that but Damian really really really really really really need to suffer the most ,i can't stand with this kind of bullying no matter the age😮‍💨

I knowwww they will!! I'm focusing less on them because they came into the family more recently as opposed to Dick, Jason, Tim and even Damian. Damian will definetly be iced out the most by reader because he was the only one to physically hurt her and outwardly threaten her.

Heyy so once again im advising people who boycott to use this app called "no thanks". They have lists of brands that support Israel that you should avoid and they always keep it up to date. Its very useful and you can also scan your products and they'll tell you if the company you're buying from supports Israel or has any other affilations with them and they link articles as proof too.

Remember! don't just think that you cant change anything because youre just one person, you absolutely can contribute to change and change things yourself.

Boycotts work and your voice matters.

Hi! I just read your fic I bet on losing dogs and it gave me an idea. If the reader goes down a more villainous route may I suggest having Killer Croc and Poison Ivy as their mentors. Killer Croc could help the reader get use to their new snake abilities while Poison Ivy could help reader with their venom and even give the reader ideas on how to use their venom for things.

ughhhh this is so so good!!! I already plan to have reader as a sort of hero/anti-her but maybe someday I'll get around to doing an AU with a full on villain reader! Maybe have reader become a member of the gotham city sirens and bond with them. I could really see her bonding with Selina over their mutual seductive nature and Selina taking on a role as her mentor. Honestly I could do a sort of big sister-little sister dynamic with them in the original plot line! And Ivy could help reader get control of her venom and learn to use it as a weapon. This just opened so many different thoughts for me!
