Kind of a reach here, but hey, confessing your love on the altar is still confessing your love, right? (Even if you’ve done it a thousand times before?????)
Oopsies sorry for the late chapters. Chapter seven and chapter eight of A Reign of Shadows are up! Sorry for this kinda shitty lore sheet too. I'm really digging my own grave for how difficult these can be lololol but it's fine it's totally fine
Chapter 5: Chapter 4: Murder, They Wrote (But Didn’t Publish... Yet) 👈
Narrated by Yours Truly, Harley Quinn
Last we left off, Little Boy Green was bleeding out on the floor, and one very pissed-off Bat-Boy was about this close to earning himself a full-blown murder conviction. I'm talkin' Netflix docu-series levels of drama here — “ The Robin Who Snapped: The Mask Behind the Murder ” —
Yeah? It’s got a nice ring to it.
Coming soon to a courtroom near you.
But anyway, before we cue the Law & Order theme, it should be noted that beneath all the flying fists, bloodstains, and deeply repressed childhood trauma, there’s still something kinda... tender? Like a soft gooey center wrapped in Kevlar and unresolved rage. Because, see, this ain’t just a story about violence and vendettas.
Nah, this is a love story.
A really messed-up, absolutely-shouldn’t-work-but-somehow-does kinda love story.
And like all great romances — it starts with a dead body, a betrayal, and a Shit-load of guilt.
So grab your popcorn, snuggle up, and maybe hide your sharp objects. Things are about to get real ugly, real fast.
...Okay, maybe I exaggerated the whole “dead body” thing just a tad.
Gar was — for all intents and purposes — not dead.
Yet.
But he would’ve been, if it weren’t for those meddling Titans, jumping in just in time to restrain one homicidally heartbroken Damian Wayne.
Now, before we dive back into the attempted murder already in progress, I feel like I owe you a little context — y’know, to really appreciate the emotional nuance of Bat-Boy losing his 💩.
For starters, remember how I said Damian was starting to suspect that Gar had been interrupting him and Raven on purpose ? Yeah, turns out that wasn’t paranoia. It was completely valid. Shocker, I know. But it gets better.
See, Gar had a bit of a crush on Raven.
Okay, more than a bit.
Okay, full-blown puppy-dog eyes, "I’ll save you with the power of processed soy" kind of crush. Basically, he was smitten from the moment he laid eyes on her.
