Yo I was on AO3 and someone’s writing this fic about how nightwing turns into a vampire and kills his whole family-
It’s either nightwing wrote that or someone’s down BAD
It’s like I turn the corner and BAM! NEW WAYNE! NEW AL GHUL! NEW ADOPTED TEEN! WHY ARE THERE SO MANY OF YOU
Open paragraph RP but I expect you to make it not-boring as possible GO:
Green sat on a curb during the middle of the day in Gotham. It was the perfect day: Gotham Academy let out its students for a two week spring break, and her favorite brand of ice cream was on sale.
She scooped out some chocolate cookie crunch and enjoyed the shining sun and the chirping bird. What could possibly go wrong?
Uh so I’ve been told by an al ghul that @teagrayson is no longer kidnapped and is in the hospital??
@that-one-gotham-kid I think I’m here but I don’t know where to go. Are you here yet?
I’m just hoping we don’t have a Ric Grayson situation on our hands
Me and @that-one-gotham-kid forced Damian to do a Bob Ross painting party with us but we forgot to consider the fact that none of us do landscape paintings so now we’re struggling (@teagrayson was there for emotional support)
Shiva kept following me around bc she thought I’d wish her a happy mother’s day-
Is she not aware of the state of our relationship like girl u are quite literally the worst mom ever
I got my AP Lang test coming up which would have been fine if my class WASNT getting interrupted by some d-class villain attack every other day
Just saw Red Robin losing it on top of them gargoyle statues cuz School is back. He just started screaming (not outta pain, but outta rage?) and some other students that were passing by joined in and started crying? All I gotta say is that I’m glad that I’m not in school anymore. Although…
There’s a Student discount of 20% off at the dinner I work at ;) (Marie’s Diner)
I work the night shift children. I hand out free leftover hot chocolate and coffee.

Watch your mouth
- The villains in this city may rob banks, kidnap ppl, or essentially cause chaos
- But they will f#ck you up if you say or do something… controversial?
- If you some wack ass N#zis Supporter, the Joker will run you up
- AndAll the vigilantes will turn a blinds eye on you (Batman may show up, but only after ur severely beaten up)
- If you are Homophobic? Specifically Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn will make your life a living hell
- If you’re racist, You will probably get jumped by Red hood, Bane, and Baby Robin, etc. (The Signal will find a way to expose you)
- If you kick a cat. Your getting jumped by cat woman and 30 cats.
- If you beat up a street kid, you will also get jumped by Cat woman, Red Hood, Poison Ivy, and a good amount of the rogues
- The heroes/vigilantes may not come after you, (except for a few like Baby Robin and Ref Hood) but they will expose you, ruin your reputation, and cancel you online.
- Essentially, even the villains have morals and will go after you.

-> Surviving in Gotham for new Gothamite’s <-
Tip #1
Mind your business
I’m not playin’
Mind your mfing buisiness
If you walk by a sus alley and see a potential villain meetup/drug deal. Mind. Your. Business.
There’s literally people with wack ass costumes that run around in gotham who fight these people on a regular basis.
If you make eye contact with the villain (criminal, mob boss, etc.) show them you ain’t finna snitch. Either by…
1. Drop some money on the alleys entrance, then calmly get out of there.
2. Don’t spare a second glance, keep your gaze forward, do not show any inner turmoil on wether you should call for help.
3. Literally show that you ain’t saw shit. My personal favourite is when I make eye contact, put on some shades and pull out a walking stick. (Basically pretend to be blind)
3.5 Another variation you could do is miming zipping your mouth shut.
4. If you show ANY hesitation, they will be on yo ass
5. Again, it really depends on the situation. If it’s a well known criminal/villain/mobster/gangster/assassin, leave it alone.
6. If it’s some drunk bastard bothering a girl, go crazy my friend. (Essentially, if it’s a low class criminal, help em if y’a want. But usually the Bats are taking care of it.)
Hey y’all! There’s a huge party at the boardwalk tonight! My friend Rose is throwing the party, I think there’s a food drive as well. Bring your own drinks, gas mask, and plan a get away plan if anything happens.
(Knowing Gotham being Gotham, something is probably gonna happen.)

Part 4
✨Learn self defence ✨
First of all, I should probably address this.
Please- just avoid gotham. Don’t come to Gotham.
DON’T. COME. TO. GOTHAM.
I ain’t playin, don’t come to gotham
It’s one of the most dangerous cities there is
It’s practically hell
And for the people who live here, they usually didn’t come here as a choice
They’re either born here, and don’t have enough to move out of the city, or they moved here bc they’re broke
It’s the lowest of the low
Criminals run rampant here
There’s a mfing Insane Asylum that’s extremely outta commission but they use it regardless
It’s considered normal for a mugging or à robbery and it’s treated the same way as seeing a plane flying in the sky or perhaps a bird
On the bright side, gas prices are hella cheap here
Most things are pretty cheap
Anyways, learn some self defence
Once again, It’s Kill or be Killed here
Always be weary of your surroundings
Everyone is capable of jumping you
I’ve literally seen a 90 year old woman rob a guy with her pet Boa Constrictor
ALWAYS be weary of the old folks around here
They’re honestly so gangster af
Just treat them well, and you’re off the danger list
Learn how to punch, kick, hook, etc
I’d say the bare minimum for you to learn is to temporarily blind your attacker and flee
Best option for most fights is to flee, you ain’t being a coward, it’s just self preservation
Wear an extra layer underneath if you can
keep it concealed (you don’t want it sticking out)
It’s not usually warm so it won’t affect you with the extra layers
People usually use knives so i recommend Leather
Carry concealed weapons
Your boots are a great place for some knives or the inside of your coat
Your hat ig
Anyone out there wearing skirts, be sure that you have pockets. If it doesn’t, y’all can pay me 5 bucks and I’ll sew in pockets
Make sure the pockets for your skirt/dress are hidden. Best technique is using the folds from more flowy skirts/dresses
Carry bricks in your bag or purse, you can smack someone with it, gives out extra damage. Not only that, ig it helps with ur strength lol
If you don’t have any, improvise! Heck, channel your inner poc mom! Use la Chànclà, the belt, a wooden spoon, a broom, the clothes hanger, your shoe, the black mom crazy/stink eye glare, etc.
Ladies, you know how the wire from ur bra always ends up poking out? USE THE WIRES FROM THE BRA CUPS AS A WEAPON! (It may not last for long, but it works as brass knuckles)
Some weapons you can use from ur surroundings when you have none: Bricks, Empty beer bottles, YEET a trash can, the trash can lid as a shield, garbage (yeet it at them), sticks, stones, gravel, poles/rods, your phone, keys, YEET a bicycle, newspaper, backpack, glass, plastic bag (try to choke em ig?), pots, spoons, forks, cans, dog leashes (unattach your dog of course) and many moreee.
However, if you’re getting robbed by one of the rogues, just comply, it ain’t worth fighting back. (Just wait till one of the heroes arrive)
Try and build your stamina up
If you’re cornered into an alley, use your surroundings to escape
Basically, just parkour
If ur someone (This goes for everyone <3) who likes to wear heels, learn how to run in them
People won’t expect you to zoom like Sonic in them heels
Heels also prove to be an excellent weapon
That’s actually why strippers aren’t usually mugged lol. They usually have Cat Woman or Red hood watching their backs but Even if they aren’t there to save them, the strippers will gouge out your eye with their heels
they’re honestly the baddest b’s
Size doesn’t matter
A street kid that’s three times smaller than you will beat yo ass
✨Aunty Tam’s Tips✨
Part 3
The homeless are your friends- sorta.
The homeless are more trustworthy then the cops (well- about 2-5 cops in the police force are trustworthy but the rest, don’t trust em )
But it’s sorta kill or be killed vibes
If you disrespect the homeless on a daily basis, they will guarantee that you’re the next victim of Gotham’s Rogues
They’re practically information brokers
Give them some cash, they will tell you safer routes, or places to avoid
Sometimes they share some potential places where it might get attacked, but you gotta gain their trust for that type of info
Give em around 2-20$
Don’t give them lots of money on one go, they will scam you
Street musicians will know gossip, rumours, and small pieces from their crowd
Homeless street musicians = rare but ideal to go to (especially the older ones)
Rogues/villains will go and seek out the homeless for info and potential victims
If y’a snitch, you’re getting jumped by like 53 homeless dudes
But also don’t go outta ur way to seek them out, they will know u got ulterior moves
So let’s say you’re walkin’ down the street, and a homeless dude is begging for money, toss him 2 bucks (a toonie works for my Canadian homies)
A week later, the same dude stops him and tells you to take a different road, or warn y’a the cops are coming
If you rich, they won’t do this
They only look after the Gothamites from the narrows, are poor and usually the middle class
Ngl they some nice folks
Uncle Clerry THE NICEST OLD MAN U COULD MEET
Uncle Clerry is about 114 y’o, (idk how he still alive) and it’s honestly terrifying on how fast he moves
That motherfcker zoomin like usain bolt
He taught me how to play Clarinet
Everyone on the streets like to joke that he gets ALL the girls (mr steal yo girl)
But he actually just a very soft uncle/grandpa figure, I feel safe with him (almost all the woman in the area feel safe with him) he will beat up ur ex, abusive family, etc
He may look frail, but is terrifyingly strong
So apparently I need to introduce myself, which is bloody stupid.
The name’s Oscar Constantine, I’m 28 years old, born Jan 2, and the drummer of the Auroras. Yeah, I’m British, mum was a Brit, I grew up in Sherborne, Dorset.
Before any bloke asks, yeah, I’m John Constantine’s kid. We don’t speak. Don’t ask. I can’t do magic as far is I know.
~~
Ooc: Mod here! I’m Nox, and I’m not as huge of an asshole as Oscar is lmao. They/them pls :)
OH SO THAT’S WHAT THAT DOES
YES!!
WEREN’T YOU LISTENING WHEN MOM, AUNT IVY AND AUNTY HARLEY TOLD US THAT?!?!?
