A/N: A while ago I was pondering the great mysteries of life, and I arrived upon the subject of vampires.  It has come to my attention that vampires are utterly badass creatures of nightmare, but yet their genre has been tainted by certain additions to vamp-lore involving glittery Gary Stus that we shall not mention further.

So, to combat this unfortunate fact about the vampire mythos, I took it upon myself to save the genre from its current setback.  And who better to salvage the bloodthirsty name of vampires than Batman and Joker?

And here is the result that I wrote a while ago and posted to fanfiction.net, but am just now getting around to X-posting here.  There are two chapters right now, and a third and (most likely) final chap will be written in the near future.  And it gets smutty, just you wait.  And if you're interested, the glorious kayliana_19 drew a sexy picture of the ending scene of this chapter, which can be found here.  Check it out and send her your love, for she is an amazing Homo sapien.  <3
