DC if they werent a coward and made hal bite barry passionately

vampire! damian wayne has what can only be described as an infuriatingly accurate sixth sense for whenever you’re about to do something stupid, dangerous, or just broadly inadvisable.

it doesn’t matter what it is. climbing onto a kitchen counter to reach something that was very clearly not placed there for human accessibility? your phone lights up with a single text: don’t. no explanation. just that. attempting to “quickly” cross the city at night because it’s “fine, it’s only a few blocks”? you’ll get another one: stop. again, no context. like he assumes you already know what you’ve done wrong.

and the worst part is when he doesn’t even bother with texts anymore. his voice just appears in your head like an intrusive thought you didn’t consent to. immediate and deeply unimpressed: don’t. or move. or are you serious.

you have no idea how he always knows. and every time you ask, he either ignores you or responds in a way that makes you feel like you’ve somehow disappointed him. what you don’t know, what you probably don’t want to know, is that damian has, in fact, woken up in the middle of the day in a cold sweat more than once because something in his instincts just snapped.

and every single time, without fail, it’s because you’ve decided to do something like take a “shortcut” through a gotham alleyway. he’ll be halfway across the city in seconds, already irritated, already certain you’ve aged him several centuries on the inside, already wondering why the universe gave him immortality just to suffer like this.

Going down by bi-monthly Batfam vampire au rabbit hole and why can I never find any duke vampirism? He would be such a funny vampire I’m so serious

He would make it SO glaringly obvious he’s a vampire, drinking blood in public and saying it’s juice, not touching anything silver or anything with garlic in (the worst part about being a vampire to him) and he wouldn’t enter a single building without asking

But, he can make himself show up in photos and mirrors, by making a illusion of himself around him to any outsider it would look the same and show up on camera, so anytime anyone tries to prove he’s a vampire they just can’t, they can’t take a picture of him to be like hey he’s not showing up that’s vampire shit and he drives people insane

On a similar vein he can go into the sun by every so slightly diverting light rays so they don’t touch him and he doesn’t really think about doing it, he just does it

I’m just saying duke as a vampire is a untouched comedic gold mine

How would the vampire Batboys react if their GN human partner/reader offers them their blood? Maybe reader offers because the boys aren’t lookin’ good/aren’t drinking enough as they should, or maybe reader offers as a way to show them their trust, or build intimacy? :3c

Yes!! I did something similar with Dick previously, but I can totally see this concept with the others as well. (TW: Mention of blood)

---___---___---___---___---___---___---___---___---

Bruce: Deep down, I think he'd always imagined feeding from you one day. Maybe as some fantasy or maybe a part of him just knew you well enough to know you'd offer. It wouldn't phase him much, but he'd be elated internally. Still tender, though. He'd make sure you had a glass of wine or tea or something beforehand and sit you in his lap, having you lean your head against his shoulder to expose your neck and he'd definitely hold it firmly the entire time, even when you started to squirm in pain.

Dick: Like in a previous post, I think he'd limit his use of drinking from his partner because he's worried about losing control/getting addicted. It's a treat or a desperate measure and he has to really focus on your heartbeat and how hard you're gripping his arm to make sure you're not starting to panic or lose too much blood. Afterwards, it would just be continuous praise, thanking you over and over and muttering how much he loves you and how he promises to never take too much from you.

Jason: Is terrified when you suggest it. He's spent his whole life being viewed as a monster, even in his own eyes and once finding someone who doesn't immediately fear him, he doesn't want to ever risk making you change your mind. But he's lethargic, out of blood bags in the fridge, and too tired to go find a fresh source. You're right there; of course it makes sense. He's still apprehensive the entire time, physically in pain when he keeps himself from indulging but refuses to let himself. Instead, every single sharp inhale or slight whimper of pain makes him stop, even if it hurts, to check on you.

Tim: Has to do a double take, making sure he'd heard you correctly. But when you nod a second time, his open jaw closes, turning into a grin. He wouldn't pounce right away, not wanting to seem too eager, even if he was. But a few days later, when you're over, cuddling in his bed, he'd be tracing your neck like he often did, imagining how it would taste. His breath would be warm when he whispers in your ear, asking you if you would let him have a snack. Of course you would nod. And of course he would take your hand, letting you squeeze it as tightly as you needed to when he sunk his fangs into your neck, humming in content, just leaving them there for a moment. He adored the puncture marks that lingered for a week.

Damian: Would be confused, at first. He'd stop in the middle of whatever he was doing— training, getting ready for bed, etc. and just stare. You were his partner, not his blood bag. Why would he put you in a position where he could hurt you when he was meant to protect you? It takes some explaining from you, telling him how you want to know what it feels like and for him to know you trust him, that he even entertains the thought. He's still hesitant, but at your request and his own hunger, he tries. He has to pause when you make a sound of pain, but doesn't stop until he's satisfied and you're dizzy. Then, he just wraps his arms around you, kissing the puncture marks to erase the remaining blood.

Vampire batman….

just hung up my 2026 twilight calendar and i’m feeling it

ngl Vampire Batman could very easily be a complete non-issue.

Like, Bruce wakes up to find he's been turned into a vampire, and after thorough research, he finds there is no cure, so he locks himself in isolation for a while and does a boat load of more tests.

and in the end he steps out like "ok, I have determined that as long as I am well fed, I am perfectly safe to be around in terms of vampire instincts."

After a little more time, he figures out how best to keep himself well fed- maybe a deal with blood banks or willing donors or something else ethical- and then just... goes about his business as usual.

Maybe it gets out that he's a vampire, and Gotham's just like "yeah, that makes sense, sure. He protects us normal citizens from harm, and in exchange we can donate to keep him fed and sane. I think that's a pretty good deal."

All in all, Bruce/Batman becoming a vampire is far less of an issue than the Justice League & Co were worried it would be.

(obviously there's that canon dc vs vampire comic series and stuff, but ignoring that- you get where I'm coming from, right?)

DC X DP

Ya know how we all collectively agree that the Lazarus pits are just ectoplasm? Well.. apparently it’s canon in DC Vs Vampires that the pits can reverse vampirism and turn someone back into a human…

Guys… GUYS -

Just imagine Danny wandering the ghost zone and ooh natural portal? Yoink.

It just so happens that the portal leads to the DC vs vampires dimension and well Vlad looks enough like a stereotypical vampire that when some dude with fangs tries to kill him who can fault Danny for a little ectoplasm blast?

And wait a minute- what just happened to the guy he shot? He’s… human now? H u h

Turns out when you shoot a vampire with ectoplasm it ALSO cures the vampirism…

The real question is : did Danny happen to land in the midst of a dramatic reveal of Dick Grayson as the vampire king and oops- no more vampire 🤩
