star wars / batman au and bruce is a mandalorian who picks up foundlings like nobody’s business and loudly & vocally disapproves of the jedi even though half his kids are proficient in the force
bruce’s helmet has little points that stick up like bat ears and his armor is mostly black so the non-mandalorians who don’t know his name call him “the bat”
EVERYONE is scared of the bat except fellow mandalorians cause they know he has 7 foundlings & would be willing to take more
everyone in the tags saying “clark is a jedi” is RIGHT. clark is the only jedi bruce marginally can tolerate
Bruce actually bothers to learn non-lethal takedowns and goes out of his way not to murder people indiscriminately unlike his fellow mandalorians. Which only makes him scarier because now there are survivors to talk about what mandalorians look and act like.
The entire planet of “G’tham” lives in terror and awe of their Mandalorian bounty hunter.
Meanwhile whenever civilians ask other mandalorians about Bruce they all just sigh and are like
“Yeah, that’s the Bat, he’s a bit of a weirdo, we love him but he’s a total pacifist for some reason.”
And the awestruck civilian who’d had 8 bones broken and his house burned down by Bruce is just:
“This is what a Mandalorian pacifist looks like?!?!?”
This is a story I would read
There are many things I love about this, but here’s one of them:
it paints Jason Todd, resident murderous black sheep, as a normal Mandalorian from a clan of absolute weirdos.
Bringing this master post back
I love this
