Yan! Terry McGinnis [Batman Beyond] x Reader + Yan! Batfam in the background [Ramble + Vampire Stuff]
Okay listen, I don't think I told anyone but if I had to pick a favorite Batman, Terry's version of Batman would win over ALL others. He's my guy, I think he's just the coolest/prettiest dude ever.
This will be a sorta crazy sounding ramble because I've been thinking about this type of thing for, like, a week at this point after I remembered this one episode. Yeah my thoughts are all over the place but an attempt was made.
That being said Neo Gotham is fucken great! It's futuristic and has so much cool shit you can toy around with. Like Splicing! Splicing comes from Season 2 Episode 14 'Splicers' where some big corporation toys around with cutting animal DNA and giving it to people- so people get those animal traits.
Now, you might be thinking? That sounds sick as fuck! But what does it have to do with Terry? Well, in that episode they give him an overload of Bat DNA that turns him into a giant bat.
Guess what I can do with that? Lets say the cure worked, but not all the way and now Terry has developed Vampire Bat traits [also known as Desmodontiane for those who want the 'proper' name]. Like sharp teeth, the need to incorporate blood into his diet, able to smell where to bite to get said blood, and is now actually really cold to the touch.
So- all this and add on to the fact that he's your boyfriend? I'd say you got a better version of Twilight over here. Oh but add onto the fact that he's now got this itch to form a "Colony" you can bet he's going to be a bit clingy, maybe even a bit handsy in not wanting to let you go.
BUT, and hear me out please, the rest of the batfam was already a vampire clan. Think of them more like the traditional vampires, and Terry who was begrudgingly added to their clan after he got transformed, is now considered their 'youngest'. So of course they're going to take interest in his partner.
Now you've got a very clingy boyfriend and his annoying ass family trying to invite you over to everything they do in the manor. Which, full stop, you already knew Terry was Batman. It wasn't hard to put it together since, while he was very good at keeping secrets to an extent, both his voice and the way he handled you was the same.
Like honestly, you laughed yourself silly once you found out because it just...made so much sense. Your lovely boyfriend, though you want to strangle him most days for getting put in such dumb situations, was just too predictable. Well to you at least.
You couldn't care though, you liked kissing him with the mask in high places. It was actually really cool. Like how many of you can say your boyfriend is vampire-ish, has a sick suit that can make him fly, and has saved Neo Gotham so many times?
Ugh, but of course his family is starting to piss you off. "Oh vampires are just like that!" Is an excuse you've heard on the daily, hell almost hourly, after both you and Terry have been shoved into the living room for family bonding time.
Like hello??? Can't a pal get some alone time with their boyfriend? You were so close to punching the lights out of one (1) very annoying Dick Grayson for instigating family game night every fucken WEEK.
You know for a fact that it's not normal because Terry once let it slip that the Manor used to be very empty, aside from him, Ace, and Bruce, and it only got as busy once Terry got turned into a bat.
Yes you have the photos of him as a large ass bat. No you will never let him live it down. Yes you will gladly use it as blackmail. It makes it easy to get him to do things for you. Like get you a soda pop every time he gets back from saving the city, or a candy bar since you aren't really picky.
You will admit that your favorite part in the whole relationship is when he gets out the suit and just throws himself onto the bed, or the couch, and curls into your stomach like a needy lap dog. Sure he grumbles about how annoying people can be, but you think it's cute he feels safe enough to do this with you.
And it's not like he's the only one who rants. You do your fare share of talking an ear off when it comes to things that annoy you, like drama of almost any kind, people being dumb, and silly things that just get you talking just to talk.
The two of you would sit on that couch, or in that bed, for hours just talking to each other. Sometimes it's light hearted stuff, other times it's not, but the two of you never fought. Well, sure you'd get into an argument once or twice but fists or objects never got involved.
Though spending time at home was nice, the two of you do hit up the clubs and dance the night away when you can. What can you say? Clubbing is fun, especially when he's always saying how pretty you look in each outfit.
You swear he just likes to see you dressed up. But it's flattering, even more so when he shoves people who're getting a bit too handsy and can't seem to hear you warn them to back off over the music.
If it ever came down to saving you, or the city, you can bet that he'd pick you first. Sure he'd rush to find a way to fix the city right after he makes sure you're safe and sound, but you don't mind it. It's cute how sweet he is.
Terry is the type of boyfriend that would let you test out lipstick shades and the next thing you know his entire face is covered in a multitude of colors. Best part? He doesn't even mind it! The guy is as happy as a clam letting you press kiss after kiss all over his face. Sure he'll sneak in a proper kiss but that's only because he loves you so much.
Your only issue at the moment is the fact that whenever he bites you he leaves behind little pinpricks in spots you have to cover up. Like yeah it's cute or whatever that's he's "claiming" you but damn dude there's only so many chokers and scarfs you can wear before you start getting questioned about your fashion choice.
But it's all good, you love the guy anyway. And hot damn does he love you back. One time he punched a guy who was creeping up on you in the club. You laughed your ass off at the way he looked so startled at the fact that he swung first.
To be fair he's not the only one who's gotten more aggressive. You have also had your fair share of swinging without knowing. Lately it's like you've swallowed acid when ever you see someone get too close to him. And your teeth have been aching, you keep feeling cold despite wearing all the proper clothing, and not to mention you've been leaning more towards meaty food recently.
If you didn't know any better you'd think you were starting to turn into a vampire yourself...
And uhh I think that's all I got now? I'm not too sure where to throw in the rest of the Batfam but just think of them like annoying fruit flies that keep trying to get you to officially join the family.
All in all, Terry would rather jump from the top of Wayne-Powers tallest building than to let you get hurt. Guy just wants his partner to be safe, happy, and well rested, can you blame him? Things have just been all out of sorts ever since the Bat incident so he's glad you still stuck around.
His only regret was that you got those stupid looking photos of him. But he'd never take away something that made you laugh, so you get to keep the photos. For now.
Edit 1 is because I forgot the Taglist, and Edit 2 is because I could NOT stop thinking about something.
