♫ “Obey, like I’m your master babe.” The Valley by Miguel
He has a habit of leaving in the mornings. He’s a gangster, a crime lord. He loves his job…you think. But it’s hard. Especially seeing him go. Which is why when the two of you fuck, he makes it worth your while.
Yes, he’s shy. He despises indecency. He doesn’t fuck, he makes love. At least, that’s what he likes to think, so you let him.
But you know better. Oswald can’t control anything about himself. The man is impulsive and spoiled. And when he wants you to feel something, you feel it. For better or for worse.
Which is why when he’s awfully pent up and sexually frustrated, you reap the benefits of the king of gotham’s cock pistoning into you. He needs to feel wanted. He needs the two of you to feel loved. He thinks the two of you are sweetly and slowly fucking in his mind. But in reality?
His thick length is hammering into you, selfishly ignoring your pleas. No, he gets drunk on them. Even if he doesn’t want to admit how obscene he’s being.
You’ll feel his sticky tip align with your pussy. He means to enter you slowly, but before you know it, he’s letting himself go. Every inch of his cock is filling you up, taking you in. His eyes are rolling back as he feels you clench around him, and he tries to push all the more unsavory thoughts out of his head.
Thoughts of you tied up. Worshipping him. Unable to resist him. Thoughts of you riding his thighs, while he gives the order to shoot someone dead. The idea of you bending to him, being a good servant. Kissing his shoes, groveling and kneeling. Degrading you.
His fingers sink into the fat of your thighs and ass, clawing at any part of you he can grasp.
His mother taught him better, he reprimands himself. But how can he stay composed and loving when you look at him like he’s the only man in the world?
Oh, he wants to make you feel good, loved, and have this be an act of intimacy. It’s what he was raised to believe sex was for. But he also wants you on your knees, choking on his length, collared like a dog.

♫ “I wanna fuck like we're filming in the valley.” The Valley by Miguel
Victor is always upfront with what he wants. And he’s been around the block one too many times. He’s fucked around quite a bit. He’s a ladies man, what can he say?
Which is why vanilla sex is entirely boring to him. Well, maybe not entirely. Not with you.
But theres something so special about mixing physical pain, his sole desire, with you, his other sole desire. It’s his lifes work, meeting the love of his life. What’s not to like?
Which is why he blunty suggests the idea. And boy is he glad he did.
A phone camera is pushed into your face while he records everything. The sloppy noises of your pretty pink mouth slipping and sliding around his cock.
It’s not just any homemade porno either, no. It’s a borderline snuff film.
He films himself slotting his cock into your swollen lips, one hand recording, another hand on a pistol pressed firmly against your head while you choke on his cock. The gun isn’t loaded of course, at least, you don’t think it is.
If the gun is loaded, you’re sure he’s playing a dangerous game with himself. Testing his own capabilities. He’s the best of the best, and his fingers are placed firmly on the trigger. If he loses control or focus for even a moment, you could never see the light of day again. Each time he cums is like a self-made test for himself, an ego trip. He’s excercising the greatest control not to accidentally pull the trigger and pop your top.
You’re spitting wildly, tears and saliva and cum mixing on your face. You’ve been sucking him off for what feels like hours, playing this game, and it’s still not enough. No, the man could live his whole life with your face inbetween his thighs. You have no clue what round you’re on.
“There you go…sweetness. Uh-huh…take it.” He’ll press the gun further into your temple, talking down to you slowly. It’s awfully demeaning.
He never shuts the fuck up during sex. This is no exception. His dry humor persists in every word, even as his gun comes into contact with your fucked out wet face, or a blade slices through your sweet soft thighs.
He’s doing close-up shots of every cut he makes on your skin. He marks the both of you, respectively. He keeps the videos in his pocket for later. Y’know, just in case you aren’t there, and he needs something to jack off to. He’s a manwhore, and he can admit it.
He’ll ask to show the videos to Wendell. Just so he knows Victor wasn’t lying about his girl being a total catch.

♫ “I wanna taste your sweat, force my fingers in your mouth.” The Valley by Miguel
Oh, Eddy. Ever the show man. Oddly enough, I think he has the dirtiest mind and the highest sex drive out of everyone on this list. In the words of CMS, "He loves donuts and getting laid." You're no exception babe.
Similarly, he isn't the kinkiest when he's at the GCPD. The poor baby is so vanilla; so eager to please. If you want a man to put your needs above his own? Look no further. Eddy is your guy. But similar to Ozzy, the man grapples with control. How can he resist when your small sleeping body looks so innocent? So willing?
You wake up to him pumping his dick deep into your hole, groping your breasts and ass, hips plowing harshly into your stretched cunt. He wants to apologize, for waking you. He feels bad of taking advantage of you. But it's your fault. The man is a little bit of a creep and has gone his whole life without pussy. What did you expect?
That being said...when he undergoes his transformation of sorts? It's like he has something to prove, to you and himself. Riddler baby is tired of hiding in the shadows, no, it's show time. If you thought the somnophilia was kinky, you've seen nothing yet.
Season 3-4 Ed is desperate to dominate you. Claim you in every way. Prove to himself that you're not going anywhere. It's a deep seated need to exert control, with a touch of dramatic flair.
Which is why, from time to time, especially on special occasions, you'll wake up from being drugged, ball-gagged in a warehouse, tied to a chair, moaning around a vibrator overstimulated against your cunny. He'll watch the whole show, pleased with his handiwork.
Might even turn it into a game. How many riddles can you answer? Maybe if you get one right, he'll let you cum. And if you don't get one right, prepare to be in for a long, long night.
Ed's pushing his thick long fingers into your tight little pussy, watching your cream spread along his fingertips. He'll force his fingers in your mouth, making you taste yourself. Making you taste what he's doing to you.
He's giggling while he does so, smile wide while you gag around him. Oh, this will be fun.

♫ “lips, tits, clit, sit.” The Valley by Miguel
Would it be too brave to go on record to say the mans a virgin? I'm sorry, but he didn't get any pussy in that carnival.
Which is why he's incredibly sex starved. The man is feral. Hungry. He fucks you like a dog in heat half the time. You're his own personal pocket pussy, who will love him no matter what.
So when he tells you to do something, you better do it.
For instance, when he tells you to sit on his face, he means sit. No hovering. No, he wants the entirety of your weight in his mouth so he can tongue fuck you into oblivion.
He's wildly gripping at you, laughing like a mad man as he keeps you in place firmly. He's digging into your cunt with his tongue like a man whose getting his first lick of pussy. He's slapping your ass, letting you ride his face like a cowgirl.
He'll slap your sopping cunt. He'll spit in your mouth, on your face, on your pussy. He loves everything feral and sloppy. And for his own good, the man can't shut up. He loves some good dirty talk.
"Hah! There you go, doll. You want it raw? You do, don'tcha? Naughty, naughty girl." Excuse his breeding kink. "Should just pump you right up with my cum. Get you all messy. Cream-pie you riiiiiiight here," He cackles, hand hovering over you're lower stomach.
He likes seeing your face contort in pleasure and pain when your thighs scratch the staples on his face.
Oh, he's a biter. Your thighs might be bleeding by the time he's done, biting hard enough to break skin. You'll yelp in pain and it will spur him on, like you're his own personal show to watch.
God, please hit him back. Slap him. Push him around. He adores it- the two of you fucking like wild animals, clawing and at each others throats, all the while his girthy length his pounding into your sweet tight hole.

♫ “Tell me that you love it darling." The Valley by Miguel
Jervis has a very deep seated need to have you close to him. To have you bonded with him. He's obsessive, clingy, stalkerish. And he loves a good old fashioned Victorian flirtation. But god, he gets tired of waiting.
He's a gentlemen through and through. But even gentlemen have needs. And when he sees you in that light blue dress he bought you, pussy peaking out through the short skirt? Or how you lick your lips when the tea he makes you dribbles down?
He'll have to take what he wants eventually.
He knows you'll say yes. Even though the two of you have never talked about sex. No, you're his Alice. His willing little girl. Why would you ever say no to him? And he's right. He could ask, and you would probably say yes.
But, just for a precaution...Can't have you running off like the white rabbit, can he?
It will be late night after the two of you have tea. And he'll pull out his pocket watch. And before you know it, you'll be pinned on top a table, dress pooling between your legs, pulling on his hair against your will.
It's a sight he will never sick of. His sticky ropes of cum dripping, tainting the dress he'd bought you. It trickles down from your spine. You'll be too fucked out to walk the next day, and you won't even remember why.
He takes you, ignoring your pleas and whines of overstimulation. He'll continue to stuff his cock inside you until he feels pity for you.
Hypnotizing you while he's balls-deep inside of you, messily thrusting as he tries to concentrate. "You love this. Tell me you love me. Tell me you love this." His words scramble as he comes undone himself, letting your mind wash over and speak the words against your will.
If somehow you piece two and two together, the cum stains on your dress- and the feeling of being stretched out the next morning...assure him he doesn't have to hypnotize you.
Or let him keep it up. It's more fun for him this way.

Hello! So I am such a sucker for one bed tropes and I havent seen any with my favourite Gotham characters so Can I request a Riddler, Oswald (separately) with a reader(future S/O) where they are stuck in a situation with one bed trope. You can write either headcanon or drabble. Which one is easy for you. My english is not really good but I hope I explained good. And Thank you!
Sharing a Bed
Oswald Cobblepot x Reader, Edward Nygma x Reader
A/N: I love this trope! Thank you so much!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oswald Cobblepot
Hiding from danger is just another typical Tuesday for Oswald
But he now finds himself in an even trickier situation with you
You may not realize it now, but Oswald has taken quite a liking to you
And even though you don't notice it, his enemies do
Which is why you two found yourselves in this current predicament
You were currently hiding out in a pretty luxurious suite
Even though Oswald was trying to keep you safe, he still had standards
That being said, he didn't think the location through very well
He was already ushering you over to the lone bed in the room, putting your stuff on it in hopes that there would be no question about it
"I think you should have the bed," you insisted, not wanting him to be uncomfortable
He shook his head
"No, no. You will be taking the bed. I likely won't even get to sleep tonight."
You frowned but decided not to push it further
You were all tucked in and ready to sleep, but you couldn't get yourself to shut your eyes
Instead, you kept stealing glances at Oswald, focusing on the way his brows furrowed and mouth tightened at all the paperwork in front of him
He was planning something big
You enjoyed spending time with him during these crucial moments, but they always left you confused
Why did he keep you around more than anyone else?
His irritated look immediately softened when he met your eyes, trying to convince himself that you most definitely were not blushing at being found out
He gave you a soft smile and looked back to the files
With this, you felt yourself relax enough to close your eyes, immediately drifting off
You didn't know how much time had passed when you shot up from the bed, your forehead covered in sweat
A nightmare, you assumed, although you couldn't remember much about it
Oswald was by your side in an instant, his face etched in worry
"Are you okay, my dear?" he asked softly, not even noticing the nickname he just gave you
You nodded and tried to offer a small smile
After a few moments to slow your breathing, Oswald hesitantly stood back up, heading towards his desk
However, in a moment of shocking confidence, your hand shot out and reached for him
He spun around immediately
"I-it's getting late, and I-" your voice cracked. "Will you stay with me, please?"
Oswald's cheeks turned a light shade of pink at this question, watching you scoot over slightly
He glanced over to his desk for just a moment, already having made up his mind
He shrugged out of his overcoat quickly and climbed in next to you, laying on his side to face you
You did the same and smiled at him
"Thank you for keeping me safe, Ozzie," you whispered
The smile didn't leave your face as you closed your eyes gently
Oswald reached for your cheek but hesitated, not wanting to scare you
Instead, he placed his hand carefully over your own, his heartbeat thumping quickly in his chest
Tumblr media
Edward Nygma
Escaping from Arkham was no easy task
This meant that you two couldn't exactly be picky with where you ended up hiding
Ed had a couple "connections" thankfully, so you two found yourselves at a rather desolate motel
It would only be for the night
But when you entered the room, you both happened to stare at the lone bed in the the middle, the tension immediately building in the air
"I can take the chair," you offered quickly
You didn't want to put yourself in any more stress than needed
It had already been life risking to breakout of the asylum
And the last thing you needed was to make things awkward for the one person you cared about
He had his moments of course, but the mind of Edward Nygma was fascinating to you
You found his riddles entertaining
And he was truly a breath of fresh air compared to all the other crazy inmates
He made you feel seen and validated
And his voice was always just a bit softer whenever he spoke to you
He promised to save you from that place
It was no wonder you fell for him as quickly as you did
But Ed was a logical man
He had no time for love and feelings, you were sure of it
You could hear him scoff beside you
"Don't be ridiculous. I'll take the chair."
You managed to finally raise your gaze to his, heart racing at the realization that he was already looking back at you
"No, it's okay. I'm fine with-"
"There will be no argument," he stated matter-of-factly
Maybe it was the exhaustion of the day, or maybe it was all the anxiety, but you found yourself snapping back almost instantly
"After everything you've done for me, I insist on returning the favor in some way. Take the bed, please."
Edward seemed to go silent at this
You could tell by the way he was chewing on his cheek that he was assessing some thought
After a few moments, he finally let out a sigh
"The bed is surely big enough for the both of us..."
Your face turned red at the thought
He immediately began to backtrack
"But of course, your comfort is my main concern, so please don't agree if-"
You immediately plopped down on one side of the bed, leaving an empty spot beside you
Ed hesitantly made his way into the bed with you
The first 15 minutes of attempted sleep consisted of you two lying on your backs, a whole foot of space between you
You shivered a bit at the lack of heating in the room
Edward unknowingly scooted a bit closer to you, concerned about you being uncomfortable
You couldn't help but scoot a little closer to the middle as well, feeling drawn to him
He finally turned to look at you
His eyes were tired but worried
"It's cold," you whispered
He just nodded once and turned back to the ceiling
His lack of response made you feel a bit sick to the stomach, so you turned the other way so he wouldn't see your disappointment
You were almost asleep several minutes later when you felt his body press against yours, his arm wrapping tightly around you
"Goodnight," he whispered softly

Some notes about Oswald’s depression.
Tw : for slight discussions/hints of alcoholism and ED
a big part of his depression is hereditary— The Kapelputs were very traditional in a sense. He came from a rich family, and because they often had to wear societal masks and confine themselves into shackles, there was a lot of depression going around. Some had gone mad and rejected by the family. Some needed a push to go mad like his mother, and some just lived with it. The point is. The sorrows were a constant companion to the Kapelputs. His mother, Gertrude, escaped the family, and she and her son didn’t have to live in that same confinement, but Gotham is a hard place to grow up in, and the trauma from balancing different jobs, often bad ones, and taking care of his mother took their toll on him.
Oswald’s depression translates to hunger. It’s a special type of hunger that can never be satisfied. He drank and smoked a lot, to numb the sorrows and quiet the demons, but they were still there. his hunger also translated into desire. He desired distractions, things to care for. If he has something to care for, to love, then he’s alright. He can’t think of a life where he has nothing to take care of. It was his mother, then the city, eventually he met Edward who was a man who needed attention and care, he started keeping birds when he stopped drinking, adopted Martin, and so and so. He’s always looking for something to care for.
another thing is that, despite it all, sometimes the depression takes its toll on him. He often wore very strong scented perfume because sometimes he’d go without a shower for weeks and he was too ashamed of it. He needed to mask his smell somehow. His body was riddled with stretch marks because his appetite was always affected by it. He grew white hair at a young age because of all the stress and sadness, and he’s just tired most of the time. thankfully, the things he grew to care for grew to care for him as well. The depression and the sadness are here, and he’s not really sure if they’ll go away or not, but at least he knows when he feels too sad, Edward would give him a nice bath, help him dress up, and encourage him to eat. He’s sad, yes, but he’s alright.

@riddlebirdweek day 2 - children
two separate images today (they looked awkward in one image so I just separated them LOL)
some headcanon-y thoughts under the cut
I was just thinking about how they would be as children - Oswald, I think, has a lot of hand-me-downs and very little of his clothing as a child is ever brand new. I imagined that Gertrud probably continued working as a housekeeper for as long as Oswald would physically allow her to until he could support both of them, so I think the clothes come from secondhand stores, charities, but also especially the children of households where Gertrud cleans, when their children outgrow their clothes she salvaged whatever she could to give to him. The hat and scarf in the picture I imagined to either be new (a special treat because they're a necessity in Gotham winters) or handmade by her.
The drawing to the left I imagined him to be a bit younger but it's sort of kind of half a panel redraw from the One Bad Day run because... he is small.
I wasn't originally thinking about drawing Ed at all and here, I think he's a little bit older than Oswald in both drawings (they're sort of ambiguously "over 10") but I started wondering what kind of child Ed would have been before I realized... I already know exactly. We don't really know much about his parents and I don't really feel comfortable speculating on his home life because I don't think I personally know enough to try and imagine it myself, but... I was thinking about what kinds of books he might read, in general?
What I came up with was mostly that I imagined he probably finds fiction to be distracting, if he can't get through a book without picking it apart applying real world logic to a fantasy setting, he wouldn't enjoy it, but I thought... maybe if he had read The Hobbit when he was really small, specifically the Hobbit, I think he would love it secretly. The only fantasy book he can tolerate, he's read other Tolkien works but I think that's the only one that would really resonate with him, he probably wouldn't have enjoyed it if he had been any older when he first read it.
To be honest, mainly I was thinking that the scene with Gollum would sort of just tickle him, you know? Not to say "he likes riddles because he read the hobbit when he was little :)" or anything so simple but I think that scene would just be incredible to his little mind as a child, that's more what I'm getting at.
Also Gotham Ed would have been like 12 in 2000 and I was thinking about those like spy gadget kits that used to be really popular and thought about like. He would probably have adored stuff like that.
I didn't draw that though, I was just thinking about it.

hi uh, forgive me if this one's too weird, feel free to ignore but,, could we get some headcanon things of how the btas rogues would react to finding out reader is ticklish? teasing them about it and stuff like that?
your writings are wonderful btw i hope you're doing okay !! 🥺💖
a/n: asdfg I feel called out cause I'm stupidly ticklish lmao but this was super cute and fun to do! And I'm doing all right sweet anon, thanks for asking 💚
Content Warning: none
Tumblr media
BTAS Dork Squad and BTAS Penguin with a Ticklish Reader
Riddler:
- It was completely by accident when he realized how ticklish you are.
- Eddie placed his hand on the side of your torso instead of on your waist-
- The little squeal you let out was both surprising and adorable.
- Ed definitely takes full advantage of this revelation.
- Taking too long to answer a riddle? Get tickled.
- Falling asleep while watching a movie. You will be waking up laughing.
- Literally, he will use any and everything he can as an excuse to tickle you.
Scarecrow:
- Not sure why, but I feel like Jonathan is also fairly ticklish.
- Yet, when he finds out you're just as ticklish…
- Jon falls for you more. It's another little something you two have in common.
- He knows how uncomfortable and even painful it can be to be tickled relentlessly.
However, the thought comes up periodically…especially to see you smile and hear your giggles.
- You're more likely to act on the teasing though!
- It's a privilege for you to not just know Jon's ticklish but to be able to tickle him and hear his own laughs.
Mad Hatter:
- Up there with Ed on the most likely to tease the most out of the four.
- Jervis knows it can be rather cruel…
- Oh, but sometimes he can't help it, your laugh is just too adorable.
- He loves nuzzling his nose into the side of your neck below your ear and the little giggles it elicits from you.
- When the two of you are dancing, every now and then he wiggles his fingers into your sides to get you to curl up laughing.
- Snuggling into bed for some quality reading time, can swiftly turn into a fight for your life as you try to catch your breath from his latest tickle attack.
- There truly is no sweeter, more endearing sound than you giggling Jervis’ name…
Penguin:
- Oswald teases, but only when it's appropriate.
- He won't do anything that may embarrass you or bring any unwanted attention to the two of you.
- But if the two of you are alone or in a busy enough environment where no one can notice, it's free game.
- Ozzie will likely tickle you when it looks like you're getting bored or sleepy.
- Also his go to method whenever you're feeling a little down.
- Definitely the type to tickle under your chin and along your neck.
- Oswald is also likely to be very ticklish in his belly area, and you definitely use it to your advantage like he does.

Gay wrongs tournament, round one of the losers bracket
Propaganda:
For Jonathan and Martin:
Season Five is so funny for this. Jon is like nooooo I can't kill these people I'm enjoying it what does that say about me and Martin is like FUCK EM UP. I think they end up killing like three or four people as part of that. Very swag of them
they go around an apocalyptic london smiting people but only if jon feels like it
One of them is an avatar of an eldricht god of fear, the other one serves a lonely god at some point. They try to be good but they actually did some terrible things. Jon ate some people's fear, re-opening their trauma. Martin is all about murdering the people who hurt them, once the apocalypse rolls around. They're canonically in love.
They literally bring the end of the world about, and Jon is the human embodiment of the fear of being watched. They also both have no concept of private property or privacy in general (they have broken into so many places). They also both share an affection for cows. They were living their best cottagecore life as the entire world was being thrown into a fear filled apocalypse that they caused.
For Edward Nygma and Oswald Cobblepot :
they ARE evil and they DO actually murder people together. and sometimes they try to kill each other. literally bonded over being murders when they first met. have done innumerable crimes since. gotham's worst on/off-couple.
The epitome of "the couple that kills together stays together" except that they are also often trying to kill each other. But that's just how love is sometimes. But yeah, Oswald confesses his love for Ed, except he also murdered Ed's girlfriend a little, then Ed tries to kill him, but then he hallucinates Oswald's ghost singing seductively to him because he's also definitely in love with him. They both do so much murder and they are both so in love with each other in such a messed up but ultimately devoted way; I genuinely think they are the most murderous and husbandly murder husbands out there. Plus they have all the delightful campy themed flair of Batman villains!
Goth x nerd couple except they're campy supervillains who like to spice their gay drama up with murder and they have soooo many issues. The spicing it up with murder includes both killing the other's partner out of jealousy and just trying to kill each other many MANY times. I wish the memory of this show was fresh enough in my mind to give you a breakdown of their relationship but alas. Anyway, these two are like the most iconic thing in this show for me, not only for their relationship but their personalities individually

i feel that sometimes this is not expressed but . ed is the worst person in the whole wide world! hope everyone knows that.
Oswald is AWFUL too don’t get me wrong but eughhhh ed makes me want to punch him in the face. The thing about Ed you all might not know is that he is so horribly CONFIDENT. Which normally is a good thing! But despite literally Every person in his life besides maybe his. mom. genuinely hating or just disliking him, he somehow has the idea in his head that he is the best person around and everyone loves him.
This leads to him being overly… comfortable, in his relationship with Oswald. He feels that he could do literally anything and that she would never leave him- at least not permanently. He can disappear for months, be emotionally abusive, just kinda terrible and yeah they’ll argue but nothing will ever ACTUALLY happen.
Of course this is due to his overconfidence in Oswald’s view of him, but also because he feels a sort of. Ownership? Over her? That’s just kind of how he is in relationships. While he does respect Oswald more than he’s respected anyone else in his life, there is still an aspect of viewing her as a possession that is just permanently linked to him.
Oswald hates this. She is incredibly insecure in their relationship, and what is kinda shitty on his end is that she wants Ed to feel the same way! She wants Ed to stress and cry and be so desperate for attention the same way she is, but that isn’t the case. Ed finds any idea of her leaving him ridiculous, and he makes that clear to her! Because really, WHO ELSE is she gonna be with? Who else is gonna love her and put up with her issues? No one. At least, that’s the idea he gets across and Oswald believes.
(Oswald is soooo terrible too I cannot stress enough that they are equally terrible but I was in a mood to talk about Ed. This is just one of the many aspects of him that aren’t Great unfortunately.)
Anyway these guys need to kill eachother because this is crazy 😭

the symbolism, similarities, and contrast of all the pier scenes involving both edward and oswald truly make me lose my mind
Tumblr media
in the first pier scene edward and oswald are facing each other, oz has his back turned to the water. edward means to kill oswald here, and in doing so kills a part of himself, perhaps unknowingly— at least to an extent. oz means no harm to ed here, quite the opposite even. oswald dies this time and edward survives— though he loses a part of himself in the process. the atmosphere is gloomy and we see the scene from far away— it’s all grays and the one subtle beige of the pier. clouds fill the sky and rain crashes into the water.

in the second one they "both" (barring the fact that this isnt actually oswald and is just a hallucination) face the water, oz behind ed. this time edward MEANS to kill both what remains of oswald (in his eyes) and a part of himself. his vision of oswald watches as nothing more than a spectator, he might as well not even be there at all. the lighting here is completely different, as is the framing. this is not a scene about revenge or murder, it is about rebirth. clouds cover the right half of the sky, yet they do not rain, and the sun shines in from the left. in a way i think the clouds passing and revealing the sun kind of symbolizes edwards acceptance for the fact that he DOES care about oswald. hes not hiding from his feelings, even if that means nothing at all anymore— after all, he’s already thrown it all away. birds fly through the air. there is life. oswald stands by the sun, edward by the clouds. edward destroys his past self and his feelings for oswald, represented here by oswalds apparition.
Tumblr media
in the third rehashing it is gloomy again. no clouds in the sky- this scene focuses on oswald (who we've seen framed by the clear sky compared to how ed has been framed by the cloudy sky in these scenes. edward intends for this scene to be about rebirth, but we can clearly see that it much closer resembles the one focused on death. again we see the scene from far away, its all greys with the slight beige of the pier. edward has failed and it is once more about death. they both face towards the water, ed behind oswald this time. obviously this is because ed believes he’s going to shoot oz again this time, but its also kind of perfectly symbolic. this time it is oswald killing his old self, his love for ed, and destroying ed in the process— instead of the other way around like the second or first scenes. neither of them are the same after this. though, there is no rain. the hardest part has passed, and while this is emotional, it is not the most they have gone through. this time oswald faces the water and he intends to kill.
Tumblr media
NOW. scene 4. they face eachother again. farther from the edge of the pier, neither of them dies here this time, in any sense. the clouds frame ed once more, the clear sky behind oswald. the scene is framed closely, reminiscent of their second pier scene where no one actually dies. it seems that the far away shots signify death, whereas the close ones signify rebirth. while oz faces the water in a technical sense, he doesnt actually— not really. hes facing ed, that much is clear, but he isnt looking out at the water. theyre looking at eachother and nothing else. once more there are colors that aren’t just grey. its nice. again they coexist, this time for good and not just for the brief fleeting moment before death.
i just think that the visuals at play here are truly phenomenal

I have a request for headcanons of the Gotham rogues having met the Y/N when they were ig sane aka. not evil and then awhile after just seeing them at Arkham, now knowing they went down the same pit they had.
At least they can be a new rogue!
( I'm thinking of them liking each other romantically beforehand and then Y/N poof is now not sane- like oops but you can still date 🤷‍♀️ )
Hi dear, thank you for your request! And so sorry for the delay! I like the concept, it's a really plausible one. The idea of them meeting each other again in Arkham and bonding because of their common misfortune and spiralling to hell is a very good one! *Barbara vibes here*😂
I made scenarios with the reader being friend or sort of with the villains first, since I thought it would be fitting, I hope it's ok for you dear. I went with: Ed, Oswald, Victor and Jonathan. Tell me if you want to read more headcanons with other villains.
So here it is:
Warning: violence, blood, mental illness, suicidal thoughts, suicide attempt, Arkham (hey, it can be traumatising, ask Oswald and Ed), English is not my first language I'm working on it.
Word Count: 3.685
GOTHAM VILLAINS HAVING MET THE READER WHEN THEY WERE SANE
EDWARD NYGMA / THE RIDDLER
Tumblr media
You were Kringle's coworker and met Eddy at the GCPD.
Even if you worked with the other woman you were never really close, mostly because of the awful way she treated Ed at first.
Even if he was a dork, you used to find him endearing and always gave his riddles a shot, succeeding or not to answer correctly.
If you were good at riddles, Ed would immediately become your partner in riddle-crime, always searching for a good one able to stump you.
If riddles weren't your forte, he appreciated your effort and gentleness. You really were trying and he really loved the spark of comprehension in your eyes when he would give you the correct answer and how you would facepalm and curse at how obvious it was when you were thinking about it.
Your closeness would earn you a lot of teasing from Jim, Harvey and the other cops, most of the times it would be mean remarks targeting Ed, though.
But you both knew the truth: Nygma was still obsess with Kringle. You, on the other hand, always had a soft spot for him. You didn't need to be a genius, though, to know your attraction for dear Ed was only a one side one. So you never told him anything about it.
When Ed started to lose it, you truly were horrified. Why? How? What was happening to him? You did your best to team up with Jim in order to bring your lovely co-worker back to you.
You already know the result: it will be an epic fail. For Jim, you and finally Ed who will be send to Arkham.
Then, your own little descent into hell happened.
Without Ed, you were now the new GCPD's scapegoat. Those guys never learn anything, right?
Hell at work and in your personal life: losing a close relative, meeting someone who hurt you badly, money issues, illness... choose your weapon and be ready to see your uneventful life burst into flames for the worse...or maybe the better?
You would wreak absolute havoc in Gotham, so much, Gordon himself had to go after you and managed to arrest you.
"What happened to you Y/N?! Ed wasn't enough? Why did you have to follow his path?!" He asked-yelled, the deep hurt visible in his eyes.
Goodbye Gotham, hello Arkham. Guess who you met again here?
“No waaay ∼ Look at you my dear, you are positively stunning!” His taunting voice would call you from the other side of the refectory. “Did you missed me so much you decided to pursue me here? My, oh my, I’m honoured!” *Yes, you can hit his pompous ass, please do it*
Riddler had to stop his mocking, though. When he saw you so numb, his felt his heart clench painfully. He appreciated you a lot back then. And seeing you so hollow made him drop his cocky act. 
“Are you ok dear?” He would ask, joining you at your table and cautiously seating in front of you with his brows furrowed. “What happened?”
And you would tell him. How your life became a living hell when he was gone. How everything crumbled around you until your mind didn’t have any other choice than snap. 
Goodness. He empathized. He truly did. His own snapping was relatively fresh after all. 
He would make his own little mission to protect you from Strange and his little human experiments, he would try his best to lift your spirit and even create special riddles only for you. Don’t worry about answering wrong, you wouldn’t die for it, he swore. 
Now that Kringle was out of the picture, Ed would finally see you. See how you were always kind with his dork him, how you tried to save him when everything went south for him, how you would discreetly wrinkle your cute nose when something was bothering you but you were too polite to point it out loud. God what was he thinking while running after his previous doomed love when you, who never tried to change anything with him, was just under his nose. He would feel like the biggest fool into the whole city let me tell you. 
He wouldn’t mind you being now judged as insane. He wouldn’t mind your illness. He would only mind how a blushing mess he was gradually becoming when you were near him. And he would only mind about ensuring your security: inside of Arkham, outside of it when he would convince Oswald to get you out too. 
Be ready to be the one receiving muffins with a bullet in it, flowers, poems, and any romantic gift you can think about. 
Bonus: he will always keep a picture of the two of you inside of his wallet. You both were in Arkham’s uniform at the cafeteria while he was teaching you how to play chess with a paper handmade one he created just for you. He would never admit it to anyone but he thought you were the cutest thing in your uniform.

OSWALD COBBLEPOT / THE PENGUIN
Tumblr media
You fist met Oswald when he entered the little tailor shop you owned.
He needed a new suit for his grand debuts in the mafia’s world, when he started to work for Fish. 
He wouldn’t be very kind during his first visits. But he came back every times, finding your sense of fashion and sewing technique terrific. 
He finally decided to compliment them once, bringing you to talk about a lot of things: suits, buttons, and more dangerous subjects like his mother and his growing criminal career. Nothing too touchy, though. Oswald is a cautious little thing and he also didn’t want you to sell any information or, if you really were as kind as you looked, make you a target if anyone wanted to hurt him. 
Soon, you would become his little secret. His breath of fresh air. He would even try to hide your friendship to his dear mother, too afraid she insults you or demand him to stop seeing you. 
But Gertrude is perceptive in her own way and would suspect something. Because of Oswald’s stupid happy smile whenever he was putting one of your creation, she would stay silent and let him think he was so good at keeping secrets. She swore to tore you apart if you ever dare to break his lovely son’s heart, though. 
Your relationship reached an important point when he would met you just after Fish defeat and flee, thanks to Victor. His clothes and face were a total mess. 
So you patched his suit and him, without asking questions you knew he wouldn’t answer. 
But he decided to speak. Well, not really speak, he vented. His nerves cracking and his temper starting to get the best of him. He always tried to keep it tamed near you, too afraid about your possible reaction. 
You didn’t run away. You let him yell, smash his hands and fists against your furniture, and offered him some tea, fruits and biscuits. 
“Poof” angry Oswald was now tamed. You’re a wizard/witch reader, be ready to receive a letter from Hogwarts in the following days.
After this, Cobblepot’s fondness for you will know no limit. As his dear friend, he would always make sure your shop and you were ok, even when everything around him was burning. 
But Gotham is Gotham, you know. Trouble, misery, and disasters always find their way to you. 
It started with an arson. Your shop was burned to the very ground. By who? Oswald swore to investigate and help you build it back, even better than before. 
But he wasn’t that rich at this time, so you did what any citizen would have done: you called the insurance, you went to the illustrious Gotham Central Bank and ask for their help to lend you the funds you needed. 
Condensed, their answer was pretty much a: “LMAO no fucking way, please go die somewhere in the dark alone.” Pretty much. With prettier and complex words, but the meaning was the same. 
Oswald was livid. You too. But you’ll eventually find a way to back up on your feet. Right? *Spoiler: no*
Your chance definitely left you when a few weeks later, Oswald get caught and sent to Arkham, letting you all alone to deal with your problem and Cobblepot’s foes who somehow had heard about you. 
Domino effect. It would always be your answer to the “What happened to you?” inevitable question. You lost it. You snapped. Nobody, except Oswald, was keen on helping you in this hell hole. Nobody would care if you were to die alone in a dark and shady alley. 
Why would you care about robbing the bank then? And other banks, galleries, rich people in town? Money was the key. You needed money. In fact, it became your obsession. Money will guarantee you a home, you will never lose yours ever again. Money will guarantee you security, power, and quick solutions whenever you may be in need for one. 
You get caught too. Your total obsession for money making you the perfect new candidate to the only asylum in town. Not like you cared. Your precious money was safe, you made sure of it. But from Arkham, it would be a little bit difficult to reach. 
Life decided to stop being a bitch when you saw your dear friend again. 
“Y/N?!” You heard him yell when you were escorted to the cell next to his own. “Oh my god my dear, I am so sorry I wasn’t here for you! But what are you doing here! It must be a mistake! Guards! Let us go this instant, we aren’t mentally ill for heaven’s sake!” 
Like Ed, Oswald will make sure no harm was done to you in Arkham. Yes, he would even protect you from Jerome. He would never let the freak touch a single hair of your head. You were too precious. 
Oswald would also make sure to get you out. Even after Strange little mind game on him. He would never forget you or judge you a bad influence for him. 
Of course he’ll notice your newfound obsession for money. But he understands. Better, he will make sure to help you make and steal a lot of it. 
He asked you to move in with him during his mayor campaign, implored you to stay during his Gotham’s throne conquest - for your own security. In fact, he will want you with him at all times. You, his dearest friend. The only one who, he knew, would never turn their back on him. 
Be ready to catch him facing empty chairs a few times when you come back home. “Don’t panic, he’s practicing his confession,” Olga told you in her language that you obviously don’t understand a word about. 
Gifts. Gifts everywhere. Everyday. For no reason. He likes to spoil you rotten. “Can’t you see this boy fell head over heels for you, idiot?” Would sigh Olga every time. Of course, both of you will miss it every time, demanding her to speak in freaking ENGLISH... Poor you guys... It will take ages.

VICTOR ZSASZ
Tumblr media
Victor met you for the first time at the Lady's illegal casino.
You weren't an assassin yourself, by no means. Just here to work as an accountant. You knew about the Lady's business and ensure she never had any issue with her money, writing her contracts for her and it was all.
When the most famous assassin in town showed his bald head in the casino and the Lady wasn't here, he pretexted he was "just passing by" and got lost here. Dude... I mean...
You had to facepalm. Which made him laugh like an idiot. You knew who he was, but also were accustomed to assassins at this point so it wasn't like you were going to pee in your pants while being in front of him. He liked it.
You introduced yourself properly and explained you worked for the Lady and was aware he was supposed to come to see her.
You offered him a drink on the house and humor him with small talk while waiting for your boss.
When she finally showed up, the three of you moved in a seclude area to talk business. Something about a contract the Lady wanted to make with Victor, with the benediction of Carmine Falcone.
He was amazed by how composed and organized you were. Clinical. Like any good assassin should be, even if you weren't one. He absolutely loved your quick wit and the dark jokes you would offer from time to time to help lightening the mood when tension was getting too intense. Damn, you were good!
Victor being Victor, he quickly became fascinated by you, following you everywhere in town with or without you knowing.
You caught him stalking you once when you stopped by a pizza truck, asking for a calzone.
"Add one pepperoni please. Oh! And a milkshake too." Came his voice from behind you, making you jump out of your skin and curse him like a sailor.
"What the hell?! Are you following me? I mean, for real?! DUDE!" You yelled in pure outrage.
He wouldn't even try to hide it. Simply offering you his irritating "Uh-uh".
"What for? Plan to kill me or something?" You asked.
His long silence wasn't mean to threaten you, no. He was admiring your nerves of steel. Also questioning your sanity a bit, truth be told. But since you made him a really good impression so far, he decided you were impressive.
"Not today", he just said with a shrug. Ok, so he wanted to play friends or something so stupidly mondain like this. Again, you decided to humor him.
Guess what, after a few times of totally not planned encounters, you started to really get close to each other. Even exchange numbers at some point.
He would always find the time to pay you a little visit at the casino at the end of your shift and appreciate the strange normalcy it gave him.
Everything was fine until one day, the Lady's illegal casino was under attack, getting nearly everyone killed brutally.
You survived somehow. You weren't an assassin but it didn't mean they didn't taught you a thing or two, like surviving *the irony* or using weapons.
When the GCPD FINALLY arrived, they caught you, covered in blood and utterly shocked. You were still processing everything happening and your world falling apart.
Your distressed attitude and shock were the main reasons why you were send to Arkham, in hope they would help you to get through it and release you after it.
They didn't plan the bloodbath would have turned one very dangerous switch inside of you. The blood, the thrill, the smell of powder, the pure rush of adrenaline. God you wanted more.
A month later maybe, guess who also found his ass in the same facility? But yes of course: Victor Zsasz.
His goofy grin threatened to split his jaw in half when he saw you: "Hey Sweets! Knew you survived!"
It wouldn't need much for him to understand what switch was activated inside of you. And he was positively thrilled by it!
He offered to train you, respected when you declined joining the Zsaszettes and came with another idea: introduce you to Falcone/Oswald (depending on where you want to stand in the timeline) and make you their brand new accountant-assassin.
Be ready to find him glued to you at anytime, you were his little secret crush back then, you're now his new God/Goddess and nothing will stop him to worship you properly, not even you. You'll see you were made for each other, eventually.

JONATHAN CRANE / SCARECROW
Tumblr media
You were Jonathan's classmate and friend.
You weren't as easy spook as him so you often where his emotional support and bodyguard, especially at school with bullies. No need to be a total badass, your fondness for him was enough to give you the courage to shut up the boys or girls making fun of him and you, or give them a proper beating if you feel like so.
His sensibility always touched you deeply, and you were always here whenever he needed to vent about something or talk about his fears.
This is how you learned about the arson taking the life of his mother. The gradual shutting of his father and his obsession with fear and how to tame it.
When it was only researches, you found yourself really interested in Jonathan's father discoveries, as much as Jonathan himself. He was always a little genius in science and physics. Share it with him or not, your interest for the fear field wasn't feigned.
He gladly explained whatever you didn't understand and even suggested a few theories, sharing them with you.
It could have stayed this way, a passion, a subject of research. But it had to escalate when Jon's father started to look for unwilling test subjects.
You weren't aware of it at first. Unsuspecting, until you found Jonathan doubled in half on the floor of the school's bathroom one day, crying like a river and mumbling nonsense about him being a monster and going straight to hell.
You rushed to him, crouching at his level and tried to shake him out of his shock. "Jon'! Hey! Look at me! What are you talking about, you're no monster! Something happened? Please talk to me."
Poor boy was an absolute mess but managed to hear you and let you help him to sit. And he spoke. Oh good lord, he spoke for an hour or so, telling you everything about his father and what he was doing to poor gothamites. How he was forced into this total craziness and how he started to fear his father will ask him to use you as a test subject one day.
Horrified. That's how you felt, frankly. You had to stay silent for a good five minutes to process everything your friend just told you.
But you liked Jonathan, and he wasn't responsible of his father madness, right?
You comforted him, swearing it was not his fault and he wasn't a monster.
When he finally stopped crying, you swore to him that you'll never tell it to anyone, not even the police *You were teens. Teens do stupid things like this. Well, adults too when you think about it...*
He would come to you every time his father would terrify some innocent in town, crying for hours on your shoulders.
When his dad used the toxin on him, he was on phone with you, making you yell bloody murder on the other side of the line and dropping everything you were doing to run to his house.
You crumbled when you saw your best friend on the ground under his phobia: a huge scarecrow, yelling, crying and spasming like he was having a heart attack. You rushed to him and pushed Harvey away, "He's my friend! Oh my god! Please do something!" You pleaded in tears, having to be manhandled by Jim to allow emergency services to reach him.
You were at the hospital everyday, hating you for not having call the GCPD sooner. Maybe it would have saved Jon. The guilt was eating you alive. When the docteur told you he was a lost cause, you felt like going into a tailspin. Then, came the numbness.
When Jonathan was transferred into an asylum where visits weren't allowed, you made a new friend: depression.
Nothing could help you, you wanted to die. Die for being responsible of your friend distress, die because all you were able to feel was pain.
You went to his house one day, when the guilt and pain were too much to bear. You found yourself inside his father's old office and started to rummage around his things. There, a syringe. With some shady yellow liquid floating inside of it.
You didn't had any idea about what was inside. But at this point, you didn't care any more. You took it in your hands, looked at it just a second before plunging it directly on your upper arm, emptying it in it.
Your yells of absolute terror were what made neighbors call the police, thinking a murder was happening in Crane's old house. When Gordon and Bullock found you, they felt ice in their veins. You were Jonathan's friend. The one who found him with them that night. The one who always was by his side at the hospital before his transfer. Jim felt he failed you. Harvey too.
You went through the exact same hell as Jonathan. First the delirium, the nightmares... When you finally managed to wake up, your diagnosis was the same as him: a lost cause. Arkham was your new stop. They didn't want to send you to the same facility's Jonathan was in, too afraid it would be too much of a shock for both of you guys.
Oh but fate has its own ways. And you finally saw each other again, years later. When he was now incarcerated as Scarecrow.
He recognized you immediately. Not believing what he was seeing. What happened to you? He tried to find you when he started his criminal career but it was like your very existence vanished from earth.
He was always perceptive. A minute was enough for him to understand: you were exposed to his toxin. Well, to his father's toxin.
He was as sorry for you as he was impress when you explained him you took the same dose of toxin he took a few years back and was still living to tell the tale.
Since you were his friend *cough* and also school sweetheart *cough*, and now totally immune to his fear toxin, he decided it was time for him to take care of you and make sure you were always safe.
Be ready for a clingy best friend-lover, for cuddles every times you two are alone, to weird scary gifts, halloween chocolates, dead flowers and basically any weird thing he would find romantic or cute.
A/N - I hope you liked it! Have a beautiful day/night my dear, take care!

my insane headcannon is connecting all of edward's riddles in how the riddler got his name to his three main foils ( oswald, lucius, lee).
oswald is the indivdual since HE was special, the only one worthly of being the king of gotham AND the only one who understood ed, he is special, he can belong in a group but he is still special.
leslie is loneliness/love riddle since she can relate to Edward when it comes to trusting someone only to have them betray you and kill your new lover, ( the fact both of them started taking drugs kinda after this is also funny)
Lucius is still the reflection, he is still a example of who Edward could’ve become if his childhood wasn’t fucked, if he had people genuinely like him for him and not a persona he put on
the funniest part about this hc is you can argue Oswald is all of these, he gets the loneliness Ed felt and has his whole life ( also the whole fate thing with the woods) and both of them are very, very similar to eachother to the point that deep down they have the same problems. Leslie and Lucius might be able to relate to some of Edward’s problems, but they will never fully KNOW Edward like Oswald did. But also their judgements aren’t as unclouded as Oswald’s are since they don’t have the same problems Ed does, they may not get him as much as Oswald does, but they don’t miss certain things like Oswald does, they know Edward does care for Oswald no matter what he says, which is a major fucking thing Oswald doesn’t know

Part 2 ( read part 1 here )
Oswald was on top of Gotham. He was mayor, Edward Nygma himself was working for him, the underworld feared him and everyone else respected him. He kept a clean image of himself. His life is perfect, his mother would’ve been proud. 
He and Ed has grown close in the period. They’d gone on a couple of dates. Oswald still kept this illusion that he returned Ed’s feelings. He still needed him after all. No one else can have him. Not even Batman could ever undo him like Edward Nygma would. 
Yet, he… he started enjoying Ed’s company even more. He considered him a close friend, his only friend. He never had a friend before, a real friend, and it tells plenty that he considers Ed his friend despite all the manipulation. He sometimes wished he didn’t lie to Ed so well, that their friendship would be true, but… this is gotham. You can’t have nice things in Gotham. 
One day, Ed prepared a nice dinner and after wards they were kissing on the couch. It was another thing they got into the habit of doing. It wasn’t as … unpleasant as sex. It was nice. 
Except, Ed leaned into his space, desperate hands tugging at his shirt, reaching for Oswald’s buttons. 
“ I’m ready.” Ed said, hungry and fevered.
And, well, Oswald panicked. He could black out, he could go along with this to keep this all up but … he pushed Ed away, scared and desperate. 
“ Oswald, it’s okay we can—“ 
“ I lied to you.” 
He held into Ed’s shoulders, fingers digging in, “ I pretended to be in love with you. I manipulated you to love me.” 
“ what?”
“ I had plans, big plans, I needed you to work for me and…” 
He couldn’t continue. It was all out on the table. Ed was silent, receiving all of that, frozen to the spot before gathering up his coat and leaving. 
Oswald doesn’t remember much of what happened after. He blacked out that night from drinking so much.
