Should You Choose to Accept It
Terra: The low and rhythmic beat of the drums came in perfectly and shortly after the vocals slid in smooth as spread peanut butter. The song really only lacked one element and Tara aimed to provide it her hands gripping the large guitar shaped controller tight as she struggled to hit the notes as...
Vertigo’s End
Wayne Manor. Stately Wayne Manor, such as it is. The old girl has seen better days for sure. Everything has just been a constant struggle to keep up. It all started with Bruce's death. A lot of talk has been about Batman's death, but that's the catch in all of this. Batman didn't die. Bruce Wayne...
The Long Ride Home
Dinah: If you can believe it, city girl like me, I have actually been camping before. In an actual forest, with a tent and a campfire, and everything. All in all, it was a pretty wet and miserable experience, which I had been unable to complain about even once, because Oliver had intimated that he...
Rapid City
Dick: Rapid City. What can be said about Rapid City? It is largely unremarkable. In fact it’s remarkable only in how unremarkable it is. Ordinary is the key word for this city. Rarely making the news for anything other than being not-quite as good at anything as the other major cities of the...
Where There’s Smoke…
Dibney: If you were to ask most costumed heroes in today's society if they would pick Batman or Nightwing, as a possible mantle to wear? Nine and nine tenths of them would say Batman. The Cowl is a Legend, regardless of how you slice it. In Gotham it's known as a sometime Hero, sometime Vigilante....
Down the Rabbit Hole
Dinner with the Mayor. It took very little time between Dick’s exit and Slade’s return, but she knew that was being choreographed. Perhaps the more surprising aspect of the timing is how soon after Slade’s return, that the Mayor’s entourage shows up. This leaves her with very little time to tell...
Reclamation
Batman: Lately I can count the number of things going right in my world on one hand. It has seemed like a never ending streak of the worst luck possible. League of Assassins come to Gotham. Joker goes on an even more insane spree than normal. Bruce died. Don't forget that the entire mess with the...
Fear of Falling
Slade: "Hmph. You sure know how t' keep a guy waiting, Birdy." Slade Wilson. Assassin. Mercenary. Professional Do-Whatever-The-Fuck-You-Pay-Him-To-Do. Also certified bad ass of extremely epic proportions. Last seen taking on the entirety of the League of Assassin -and- the Penguin's goon squad at...
The Book of Fate: Who is Khalid Ben-Hassin? – Part IV
Strange that of all the places I would be wandering around it would be Gotham, but it plays a central part in my history, our history. It’s not something that can be ignored or denied, but it was something that my family thought I should do, even my grandfather which most would find surprising. ...
Postcards from Gotham – Personal Jesus
Synopsis: Jason considers what his next steps are while looking over his current domicile. He considers the options before him. The rare opportunity that he has. He can either turn away from or towards the sun. Deciding that if he is going to take a stand that he needs to do more than talk to...
Baggage
Dick: "So. You're heading off with Slade Wilson. To track down a part of your History. This is where I'm supposed to ask you if that's a good idea." Things have not exactly gone according to plan for me of late. The investigation in to Bruce's death has hit a wall at nearly every pass. Given the...
Warehouse Ninja Ambush!
Ronin: Ronin has extended her protection of the city. The way she saw things, she made a promise to herself and the deal she made with the Prince of the League of Shadows was only secondary. It was, in a sense, permission to extend beyond the neighborhood she had been guardian of. She wasn’t sure...
