#Batman gothic

[kingcrow01]

haha yeah this is a great party *grabs your face and stares intensely into your eyes* do you remember that batman comic where Bruce went to a boarding school and his only friend stopped showing up one day and then the headmaster made Bruce lean over his desk so he could beat him with a stick where Bruce had full view of his friends decapitated head in his trash bin so he gets his dad to pick him up and then that night his dad says, "let's all go and see a movie tonight :)" and it is heavily implied that that's when they all see zorro and get killed

anyways go read Batman Gothic I guess

Hear me out

Batman gothic but it’s like Matilda

(Spoilers for Batman legends of the dark knight)

It’s basically little Bruce having to go against the horrible teachers and headmaster of the school. He has to navigate abusive teachers and school bullies and has to try to bring the children together (I personally think it’s very unlikely anything could happen without the help of other kids). But things gets complicated when more gets revealed and there’s been a string of missing children. Bruce has had enough when he finds the head of his friend Robert. He sets of a rebellion where the kids overthrow the teachers and the headmaster Mr.Winchester goes into hiding. I like to think of a bitter sweet ending where he’s hopes his friend can rest knowing no other children will end up like him and can finally go back home to his parents after the truth about the school has been revealed.

I like both options of Bruce having telekinesis like Matilda or just being a genius and using his wits

Idk why this idea is stuck in my head 😭

This is basically just the comic with a happier ending

It’s not good to see me. For scum like you, it’s never good to see me. How dare you bring me here?

The king of age regression - of course he appears as a kid in his dreams, shifts into an adult for a sec when he's self-conscious, only to come back as a child the moment he sees his father. Of course he believes it's possible that his entire life after the death of his parents could've been just a nightmare. Of course he does

batman has gotta be one of my favorite heroes only because he’ll go through the most borderline traumatic series of events possible where he may or may not have proved an afterlife existed just to drive away in his stupid fucking batcar with his stupid fucking bat ears peeking out

Evening is drawing in and I feel I must warn you... certain places have about them an atmosphere. One might almost imagine that the very stones could be contaminated by malign influences. The drowned monastery of Lake Dess is such a place.
