Idk if you’re taking asks for the Vampires SMP x Batman thing, but I wanted to share the idea of joker kidnapping the NY trio and their various bat friends rushing to save them, only to find a bunch of shredded ropes and the joker with a bunch of…bite marks? And severe blood loss? Dick tries to bring it up inconspicuously to Drift the next time they see each other and she panics and goes “oh yeah, these vampire vigilantes swooped in and saved us”
Let the batfam be endlessly confused as to why there is another group of bat-themed heroes in Gotham
To be honest I completely forgot I had asks turned on (which is why I’m responding to this so late, I’m so sorry), but yes now that I remember them I absolutely take asks! I love talking about my and others ideas and yours was very fun to imagine!
Scott, Shelby and Drift are sitting in the usual café waiting for some of their new friends to arrive when the doors are suddenly kicked open and several people in masks rush in followed by a man in clown makeup, The Joker. It’s the first time any of them have seen the man and they immediately dislike him. “For today’s show we’ll need some volunteers!” Both patrons and employees are frozen. “No one? Guess I’ll pick then! Hmm. How about you three over there!” All of them bristled at the finger pointed their way and then tensed as the masked goons surrounded them, with so many people as witnesses there was nothing they could do but let themselves be led out the doors as The Joker whistled a merry tune.
After a long week of working on the case of the lead wiper the batkids have decided to take a break and meet with their new friends. As they walk to the café they slowly begin to relax, though there was still tension left in the air, The Joker had once again broken out of Arkham and it was only a matter of time before he tried something again. But today was a day of rest and nothing would stop tha- a loud laugh is heard through the streets, all screens show a smiling face. The Joker has attacked a café and kidnapped three civilians, three very familiar civilians currently tied upside down over the waters in Gotham harbour with weights strapped to them. The Joker monologues while the bats prepare and as the broadcast turns off they have narrowed down the signal. It’s time to save their friends.
The rope might have been a problem for a human but for the three vampires they were quite easy to remove. And as soon as the broadcast ends there is nothing stopping them from dealing with their captors. A slash from Shelby’s claws, a bite from Scott fangs, a snap as Drift breaks a bone. While they may not fight often anymore The Joker and his henchmen are still no match for the coven.
(While Scott had wanted to kill the man he had refrained from doing so, because while Abolish at this point must be long dead a promise is a promise).
As soon as Nightwing, Spoiler and Red Robin enter the final warehouse in their assigned area they immediately stop dead in their tracks as in the middle of the building there is a pile of unconscious henchmen and at the very top a clown covered in scratch marks, bites and and limbs pointing in all directions. Sitting next to said pile are the three captives no longer captured.
After checking over the people they definitely do not know for injuries and calling in transport for the villain they ask the question that had been clawing at them since they entered. What happened? And the answer they get confuses them even more. Vampire vigilantes. Vampire vigilantes swooped in and beat the crap out of the Joker before freeing them. This just got much more complicated.
(Vampire vigilantes was probably one of the worst cover stories they could have picked but it’s what they chose so now they’ve got to stick to it, this will definitely not cause any problems later).
(Somewhere in the distance you can hear one Abolish Veylocke putting his head in his hands and sighing loudly, this is going to be so much paperwork).
