ＢＡＲＮＡＥＳ

a whisper of a ghost story. when first he fell, they carved martyrdom into his bones, twisted any remnants they could find until he was worthy of show in their museums, until the lie of him was something they could use. and then he became the haunting, the blood - soaked villain who moved into their horror stories, always existing between the truth and a nightmare. and now? now they pick apart truths and frame him any way they wish, forget that hands are washed with blood and his is the alias that pulled apart the centuries. that anger, that thing they fear the most in him, but lie claim to anyway; that was his. the could not create from what wasn’t there, couldn’t breathe a brutality into him that he didn’t always own. the winter soldier has not gone, simply become his to own, while he watches them all forget it.

   —       ❛   i’m not an avenger. ❜        he won’t be either, turned that one down the moment it showed up. he works alone, finds a path back to redemption by burning down everything that made him, doesn’t trust the people in charge to make decent decisions.       ❛    what’d they do that puts you not in the mood?   ❜

to my dear bruce,

it’s been nearly three months since we’ve spoken,   since i decided to tell the world the truth about me.   i wasn’t sure how you would react      ------------      how would any sane, logical person respond after finding out that their girlfriend is the queen of the underworld?      ( i wouldn’t know,   i lost my sanity a long time ago,   at the same time that pamela died in that lab ).      i’m still not entirely sure why i’m writing this letter to you now;      writing a letter in itself seems so archaic,   but you’ve been ignoring all of my texts and calls,   all the emails sent both to you and to alfred as a last ditch effort at reconciliation.   if things had been different,   if we had reconnected before this damn city had ripped me apart,  maybe we would’ve been perfectly happy together.   after all,   you’ve always been the only person that i could talk to,   the only person that allowed me to feel normal      ( despite all of the shit that was happening at home,   despite the hidden bruises and hesitant smiles ).      even recently,   you were the only person that reminded me what it felt like to be human again,   reawakened parts of myself that i thought had died long ago.

some days i think that i see you in the streets,   in the endless sea of faces that i interact with daily.   maybe it’s wishful thinking,   but i hope that one day we’ll meet again,   that you’ll forgive me for all the lies and secrets.   maybe you’ll even understand why i did the things that i have…

i don’t think of myself as the villain that the media paints me out to be,   and i don’t think that trying to saving the earth is a crime.   my radicalization came as a direct result of the crimes of gotham,   the corruption of government officials due to human greed,   a reality that maybe you never had to face due to the sheltered life you’ve been living.   the people of gotham are dying,   just as surely as the earth itself is,   and i want to be a figure of liberation for them all.

the batman is the only thing separating me from true liberation,   but i hope that he’ll see the truth too,   before things get worse than they already have.   i don’t want to hurt anyone,   i don’t want to become a monster,   but i can become the villain that gotham so desperately wants me to become;      you know better than anyone,   what these pressures do to a person,   what expectations force you to turn into.   i’m so close to achieving my goals,   to finding out who the batman is,   to bringing a green utopia to gotham.   i had hoped that you’d be by my side when it all happened,   that you would be in my corner,   but maybe it’s better that i have no weaknesses when the war commences.

i miss you,   bruce.   i miss quiet mornings in wayne tower,   late nights talking about anything and everything.   i’m sick of the memories making me feel guilty,   i’m tired of the regret;      i don’t want to hurt anymore…   maybe i should just let you go.

this pains me more than you’ll ever know.

love, pamela isley  your dearest ivy

dear @nightwarn​​,

you don’t want to hear from me,   and that’s fine;      our relationship should’ve died with pamela months ago.   i’m doing what needs to be done,   and i won’t let you make me feel guilty for it.

i will find the batman,   and i will kill him.   then,   i will purge gotham of its poison.

you will never hear from me again.   don’t try to stop me,   or you’ll join the rest in their graves.   this is your only warning.

#THE BATMAN  :  (   some triggering content may be present !     change pronouns to suit.     )

i don’t care what happens to me.

a new friend of yours?

don’t worry, honey.

who are you under there?

all it takes is fear and a little focused violence.

i wouldn’t be bothering you here, but your people keep telling me you’re unavailable.

don’t throw your life away.

things will get worse before it gets better.

you’re not my father.

i’m not so sure.

are you just hideously scarred?

no guns.

it can be cruel, poetic or blind.

hey guys, thanks for all the comments and tips on detonators.

your family has a history of philanthropy but as far as i can tell you’re not doing anything.

oh you’re really not as smart as i thought you were.

i’m well aware.

all you had was me.

if we don’t stand up to him, no one will.

i’m vengeance.

from your secret friend.

i thought i’d mastered all that.

gotham needs you to answer for the sins of your father.

get out of here or that suit’s gonna be full of blood.

i can take care of myself.

let’s get into some trouble.

yeah, man, that’s your thing

all these years, you lied to me.

the answer’s justice.

if this continues it won’t be long before you have nothing left.

fear is a tool.

the killer left this for you.

you came!

you have a lot of cats.

we all have our scars.

how am i part of this?

people need hope.

what have you done?!

mine or yours?

if you are justice, please do not lie.

i have a thing about strays.

bastard murders you and your reputation.

why is he writing to you?

i never thought i’d feel fear like that again.

who am i kidding, you’re already spoken for.

maybe we’re not so different.

i’ve been trying to reach you.

why don’t you come with me?

the riddler is asking for you.

when that light hits the sky, it’s not just a call, it’s a warning for them.

who are you hiding?

what the hell is this?

it has a nice ring.

you’ll see.

i’m just here to unmask the truth about this cesspool we call a city.

i don’t think that rat likes you.

vengeance won’t change the past.

you are a part of this too.

you know, you really could be doing more for this city.

you needed a father.

let’s play a game.

just me and you.

get into some trouble?

he moonlights as a cop.

what’s black and blue and dead all over?

you could have at least pulled that punch, man.

maybe this is all coming to an end.

it’s only gonna get worse for you.

what is the price for your blind eye?

oh you’re everything they say you are, aren’t ‘cha? we both are.
