hi hi hiii request if you’d like it: how would the Riddlers react to/deal with an s/o or even just an assistant that gets upset easy with puzzles and riddles? like they 1. are just not good at them and 2. cries once they realize they are just Not Getting It

lmao good luck in clawing any sympathy out of him
he would happily see you driven to cartoonish insanity over not being able to know what the answer was
than even offer you a singular hint at the solution
it makes him feel powerful, strokes his ego, seeing your brain struggle to try and work it out
really reinforces his status in the world, or at least his dominance over you
young justice
oh no oh please don't cry, he can't believe he made you cry
he was just showing off how clever he was and how brilliantly quick he can come up with riddles
he didn't mean to make you feel bad!
besides, you don't need to know how to solve riddles, you're so pretty and so wonderful and so amazing
please please stop crying or you're going to make him cry too and that would just be terrible
btas
i don't think he would ever pose a riddle to you that he knew you wouldn't get
which would be an easy task for him, since he knows you inside and out
he'd never want to make you feel stupid, or useless, or make you cry
he takes his job seriously, and that job is making you feel good
so expect the easiest riddles ever and then heaps of praise for solving them
arkham
if he thought he could cope with the unfortunate emotional consequences, he'd have killed you long ago
not only are you stupid in general, but you can't even solve basic riddles?
and then you cry? so irritating!
you're lucky he's so... attached to you... even though he'd never admit it out loud
but the fact you're still living even though you don't know what has a face but no hands is testament to his adoration for you
twojar
listen, hey, don't worry about it! you're not here to answer riddles
you're here to look good and stroke his hair and/or chest (and/or cock) and tell him he's so smart and so clever
and if you ever feel the notion to try, he's happy to give you an easy one
he's so sure you'll be able to solve it eventually
especially if the motivation is knowing that he'll give you a very big, stiff reward for being his very clever little sweetheart
unburied
it's the beginning of every deeply filthy sexual encounter based in humiliation and degradation
his need to undermine you while he's got his cock buried within you
the only way he can make it feel like he's still the one in charge, to be so sarcastic and dry, cruelly mocking you for being stupid
so you know when he asks you a riddle that sounds impossible
it means he's getting ready to rail you, which is fine. i mean i can't do riddles. i'd rather get railed than do mental exercises
zero year
it doesn't matter what you can't do with your brain
he's far more invested in what you can do with your mouth, or your hands, or the way your hips move
in fact, he'd far prefer someone who was just a pretty face, so he doesn't lose the upper-hand
you're not really a very good trophy conquest if you can match him intellectually
and the overlap of people willing to sleep with him and people who are bad enough at riddles to warrant his attention is... slim
dano
hey, don't worry about it! the last time he interacted with batman and the gcpd it became pretty obvious that they were useless
so he's had to sort of... dumb down his riddles
maybe, and he doesn't mean this negatively, you could help him then
if you want to sit on his lap and write some riddles, ones that are easy enough for you to get
they might still be too hard for his enemies, but they'll maybe stand a chance of getting them eventually
btaa
his habit of asking you riddles that you won't know the answer to is quite irritating
but you have a system which irritates him more
because any time you're struggling to figure out what runs with no legs
miss tuesday always manages to come in at the right moment and tell you the answer
it spoils eddie's fun, but it's adorable to see his face twist into a pout
gotham
he's not going to make it easier, and he's not going to purposefully ask you any simple riddles either
BUT he will hold your hand and sit with you for as long as it takes for you to get it
if you want to cry, go ahead, he understands how frustrating it can be when you just can't get the answer you want
he's here with tissues and a hug if you need it
but he knows how much better you'll feel, even through the struggles, once you get the answer on your own

one thing that really pisses me off is when privileged people make excuses for cruelty. no, it is not in fact a good thing that the government is making a credible attempt at killing poor people and saying it's in the name of balancing the budget, while simultaneously giving tax cuts to the rich, and you do not get to say that when you're either unaffected or getting money out of it.
or rather, you can do as you want. but if you refuse to acknowledge the humanity of those who are worse off than you, well, they might just return the favour. and then someday you will find yourself terribly outnumbered.
