#I'm so sorry for always picking on you Jerome

[bonded-by-love-and-hatred]

A Jerome Valeska Headcanon

The boy is flexible as fuck from watching the contortionists stretching and secretly following along or waiting until he was alone and repeating what he saw them do.

(Jeremiah would do it with him before he left, one of the things they kinda bonded over, but didn't stay in practice and isn't as flexible in adulthood like Jerome)

And to get real specific with it and make it angsty of course :)

One time, he was caught by the contortionists. He was allowed to join them, and he still hadn't gotten his full middle splits yet. So one of them says they'll help him, and they just push him down into a full split and hold him there.

He tried not to cry in front of them, but he definitely did when he was alone later. He couldn't walk quite right for a few days.

[kateac12]

Jerome and Jeremiah having a daughter would include...

Jerome

He's over the moon to learn that he's having a girl, and he'll do anything to protect his "little princess"

Will spend hours just looking at his baby girl sleep in her crib

Always takes her to the park and out for ice cream

"Is that boy in your class still picking on you? Don't worry princess, I'll take take care of them" *winks*

Almost never yells (except when his criminal professional life is really stressing him out)

Will apologize over and over for losing his cool. Makes it up by making her favorite meal, or taking her out to do something fun like ice skating, mini-golf, paint-balling

Goes all out for holidays. Birthdays, Thanksgiving, Christmas, you name it. Jerome didn't have those things growing up, and he'll be damned if he doesn't make his child feel special

Will happily help with projects (especially arts and crafts). His daughter will likely get first place in the science fair for making something blow up

The type of dad that will definitely excited to take pictures of his daughter going to prom (and of course, she'll be going with friends, because Jerome will kill threaten any boy that tries to get close to his baby). He knows how boys are, and he refuses to let his daughter get her heart broken by a dumb teenager

"Aww you look so beautiful in that dress I stole got for you." "Dad, stop, you're embarrassing me!"

"Dad, I'm 17. When are you going to let me have a boyfriend?" "I already told you that you can't date until you're 25!"

Jeremiah (pre-spray)

Acts like he doesn't care much about the baby

High key terrified that his little girl will be like his brother or mom

Over time, he warms up to his child, but he's still a very distant father

"Daddy, do you want to do a puzzle with me?" "My dear, I'm a bit busy with work. Ecco, can you play with her?"

Homeschools the kid in his bunker, because he's too paranoid to let them out

Jeremiah will absolutely insist on his daughter going to university, because education is very important to him

Will help with homework

It's only when something drastic happens (such as his daughter getting injured at school or kidnapped for ransom) that he starts caring more for his baby

"Sweetheart, I know I wasn't the best father when you were growing up. I really do love you. I'm sorry"

He tries to make an effort to spend more time with his daughter, like watching a movie with her or taking her out to eat

Isn't super strict with dating, but he will insist that the boy his daughter is interested in meets up with him first

Jeremiah (post-spray)

It would be a stretch to say that he loves his child. It's more like, in his own very twisted way, he cares about his daughter, but only if she's useful

Is a more hands on father than (pre-spray) Jeremiah. But it's not a good thing because he is just trying to gauge how skilled and intelligent his daughter is

He will absolutely want to know what his daughter's skills are. Is she good at math and science like him? Is she a poet? Is she drawn more to the arts?

Any skill that she has will be utilized for his personal gain

If she doesn't have any talents? She better stay out of his way and not cause any problems

He doesn't care as much about getting an education. After all, why use those brains for college when you can use your intelligence for helping him do crime?

Will make his daughter pull all nighters (because he needs help figuring out how to destroy buildings around Gotham)

"Dad, can I go to sleep now? It's 4 AM." "You can sleep when I successfully take over Gotham."

If a boy likes her, he'll kidnap meet the boy. "You have two choices. Either follow me as your leader, or you die."

If the boy agrees to follow Jeremiah, he will dig up some dirt on the boy's family, or embezzle them for money

"Dad! Please don't hurt him! I love him!" "Sweetheart, anyone who's around my family needs to declare their undying loyalty to me"

[nostalgic90s]

I was just going to leave part of this in a comment on Infected Unicorn but I changed my mind

Your take on Jeremiah's warped perception of time is really making me think lol. I love it though, don't get me wrong. I'm really interesting to see how this pans out.

But, applying this idea to the actual show: I hadn't considered him fully believing even parts of his own lie (the story about Jerome taking a cake knife to his throat on his 10th birthday and trying to light his bed on fire) because from what I was seeing it appeared that he was full aware of what actually happened, and more importantly for this, when it happened.

But if he truly believed he was still at home by the time he was 10, despite having being taken away when he was 7, I have to rethink a few things.

He would be suffering from a dissociative disorder, specifically a type of derealization, likely as a response to trauma. It could also be a potential coping mechanism to keep himself from realizing how long it's really been since he lost Jerome.

The fact he kept contact with Lila meant he didn't feel as removed from her, he still had that link to his mother until he left the Wildes (it's unclear whether this would have been at 12 when he started college or at 16 when his bunker was completed) but presumably those letters were dated in some manner, even if just indirectly through whatever schedule they were sent on. You could easily use them to figure out how long Jeremiah had been with the Wildes, and the birthdays and holiday wishes would keep track of the years. Regardless, there was a record of how long they'd been apart.

But he had no contact with Jerome, and he knew the kinds of horrible things their mother would do to him, and he had been the only one there for his brother, and, and, and.

To keep himself from spiraling down that train of thought, he would have began lying to himself about how long they had been apart, and it's fully possible that he started believing his own lie. In fact, as a kid, it is so much easier to ignore a painful reality and just believe in a lie. Even of your own creation.

And that would play into his antisocial behaviours. Anyone could tell him he was wrong, anyone could make him see the truth, because in the early stages of a delusion like this it's fragile and your mind does everything in its power to protect it. So he shut out everyone.

Until Ecco came into his life. Someone was picking on Jeremiah, and he didn't fight back. He couldn't, he didn't know how, Jerome had always either stood up for him or was enough discouragement to the other kids in the circus. He didn't have Jerome at St. Ignatius though. He was alone. Until someone did stand up for him, a girl he'd maybe seen in a few classes, Ecco. She offered him some kind words and protection from the bullies, and although he tried to push her away at first she was persistent. Who else in his life had been persistent? Jerome. He saw the same first spirit in this girl as he'd seen in his own twin. Slowly, he let her in more and more, and the more time he spent with this girl the more he saw his brother.

And I'm sorry this is irrelevant and off topic and I'm just rambling. But uh... yeah, I'm basically doing Harley's job myself atm and I wish I could talk to her even more now because I have so much I could tell her, and she can probably get some information that I couldn't from two measly episodes and Jerome's pining rambling about his twin, and yeah. Basically everything in Jeremiah's life revolves around Jerome. Ecco, Bruce, even the mazes and labyrinths, it ALL comes back to Jerome and their separation, and you've just added another layer for me

Don't say sorry, this is great! Thank you for feeding me Valeskacest content. I will devour it unapologetically. 🥰

You're blowing my mind right now when you compared Harley to Jerome, at least from Jeremiah's perspective. That's such an interesting twist! And one I hadn't considered. I can see why it'd be easier for Jeremiah to trust a doctor who, in some ways, reminds him of Jerome. He would still have to give up his authenticity in order to develop that attachment to Harley though.

You're right about the letters, and I wonder if Jeremiah would keep them? But in doing so it's just another record of time, and I don't think he'd like the reminders. Maybe he has Ecco dispose of them, or take them to another location (security box at the bank maybe?). OH! Jeremiah never said if he wrote back to his mother. He received letters but he never explicitly stated he wrote back to her. What if the letters were going to the Wilde family? Or another source? Like if he used a PO box address. Because this guy wants to be unknown, undetectable, untraceable.

The way you wrapped that up at the end *Chef's kiss* Jeremiah's life revolves around Jerome, and he can't escape it, no matter how many lies he tells himself (and others).

Destiny (Part 2)

Book-TRR

Pairing - Liam x MC (Riley) ; Riley, Charles(siblings)

Author's note - I have always wondered why there is no proper discussion regarding Riley's past so this is something I came up with.

No. of words- 1658

Catch up on Part 1 of 'Destiny' Here

Riley sat in the solarium of the palace as her mind drifted off to everything that happened in past one month, meeting Charles after six years was overwhelming, Charles still hadn't told her where he was for past six years or if he ever tried to reach out to her after she move out of Boston and settled in New York. When she first saw Charles after six years outside Olivia's estate in Lythikos, she felt as if her legs were frozen, she wanted to go away, ignore him just like he ignored her after their parents demise, but no matter how much she told herself to move she couldn't.

She came back to her senses when she heard someone approaching, she turned to see Charles coming her way, he sat on the chair opposite to her and helped himself with a cup of tea, seeing him acting so casual around her as if nothing ever happened made her so angry that her hand shook and hot tea spilled on her hand making her wince.

"Are you okay? " Charles asked frantically checking her hands after making sure she was fine he went back to his seat.

"You are a married woman, but you couldn't even hold a cup properly" Said Charles trying to ease the situation

"DON'T ACT LIKE YOU CARE BECAUSE I KNOW YOU DON'T" Riley screamed angrily.

"You left when I needed you the most" Riley whispered in a broken voice.

"Riley I...." Charles hesitantly began speaking

"Don't Riley me Charles, you don't know how hard it was for me to cope up with everything, mom and dad were gone and you.. you left without a word. Do you have any idea how desperately I looked for you. I waited for weeks, months years for you but you never came."

"Do you think I was happy when I left, huh Riles?" Charles asked

Riley turned her face without a word a word.

"You know, everyone around me started telling me that mom dad died because of me, that you left because you must have been to ashamed to call me your sister, especially after everything that happened with Jerome" Riley told him.

Charles stared at her for a moment before getting up and kneeling in front of her.

"It was never you little one." Charles said while Riley looked at him, shocked when she heard him calling her by the nickname he gave her.

"Don't call me that, please." Saying this Riley pushed him away lightly and went out of the solarium while Charles stayed there on his knees.

Liam was leaning against the main door of palace talking with Drake when he saw Riley coming toward their way wiping away her tears, she didn't reply even when Liam called her out few times and went directly inside their quarter locking the door behind her.

By the time Liam came inside she was in the bathroom where the shower was on drenching her completely as she sobbed uncontrollably curled up in a ball on the floor. Liam immediately turned off the shower scooping her in his arms as he wrapped her in thick towel. He sat her on the edge of the tub as he helped her out of her wet cloths. he then took her to their bed still wrapped in towel. After he helped Riley with her cloths they both lied on the bed. Riley was no longer crying but she hiccuped lightly in his arm as she buried her face in his shoulder.

After being like this for almost 15 minutes, Riley looked up at him.

"Will you also abandon me?" she asked him and Liam could feel how devastated she was.

"Never." Liam said as he creased her cheek

After being in his arms for few more minutes, Riley wriggled out sitting upright beside him "I am sorry, you are already so tensed regarding everything and I am not even helping, I'm just increasing your burden by my stupid problems."

"You're not a burden love. Do you remember how devastated I was when my father passed away, I felt like everything was falling apart but you were there to pick up my broken pieces and now I want to do the same for you, I want to be here for you." Liam said.

They both stayed in their room for some more time before going back to their respective duties for rest of the day

In her office she and Charles sat opposite to each other, after a while Riley spoke up "I am glad to have you back in my life Charles I really am but things have changed, you are no longer the same, neither am I. I won't ask where were, all I want to know is, why? Why did you leave?"

In the evening, after Riley was done with her work she decided to meet Charles to have a proper conversation with him.

"At first I stayed in a motel little farther from our home then I moved to Georgetown, a year later I settled in San Francisco and to why I left, I...I panicked, our parents were gone, you were just 19 and I didn't have a job to support you, I felt suffocated sitting there being acutely aware how useless I was. I was terrified and first thing which came to my mind at that moment was to flee."

Riley felt sting behind her eyes "You were not useless, you were the best brother I could ask for, it was until you decided to leave without a word. We could have been there for each other. And Charles, I was not a child, I could have financed my own studies by working part time jobs, how do you think I manged everything for almost five years"

"I am not you Riley, you are strong, very strong unlike me who runs away from problems instead of dealing with them." Charles said

Riley sighed looking at him "That's where you are very wrong, I am not strong, I guess I'm just good at hiding my true feelings. It was hard at first, but I guess you get used to it."

"I saw your wedding live on television, you looked stunning that day." Charles spoke up trying to ease up the tension between them.

"Live, huh?" Riley asked as she smiled slightly recalling her wedding with Liam.

"It was hard to miss."

"You watched the whole wedding live but you didn't think it was necessary to be with me on my special day?" Riley asked him as her voice turned slightly cold once more.

"I wanted to, but as I said, your big brother is a big coward. I didn't have the gut to face you after everything. But, I miss us Riley and I miss our playful banters."

Riley stood up and paced around her study for some time then she took a deep breath and faced Charles "You know Charles, even though you have been here for almost a month I still have this lingering fear that you would leave again without a word and cut me out once again, if you leave for the second time, I would not be handle it. I used to sit on the front porch of our house waiting for you. I might seem unreasonable to you that I'm not forgiving you even when you have apologised on several occasions, but I need time. "

"I understand." Charles said and got up to leave

"Maybe.. you could join me and Liam for breakfast tomorrow morning." Riley said as he reached the door.

"I would love to." Charles said as he smiled from ear to ear.

Next morning Riley and Liam were sitting together waiting for Charles, Riley had took the initiative to cook some of Charles's favorite foods along with the some famous Cordonian cuisine which was sent to their room by the chef.

When Charles arrived there he smiled seeing all his favourites "Aah my sister loves me too much, see King Liam she made all my favourites." He took a sip of his coffee. "More milk, less sugar. Just the way I love it. Definitely my kind of coffee."

"It's just a coffee, and I brewed that coffee for myself and I wanted to eat toast and omelette, you don't have be so smug about it" Riley told him.

Charles chuckled listening to her. During breakfast, Charles could see how much Liam and Riley cared for each other. They both were attentive towards each other. When Liam food for the second time in her plate, Riley sighed looking at him helplessly.

"What? You are yo skinny, you should eat more." Liam told her.

"But...?" Riley muttered.

"No buts, finish your breakfast."

Charles was glad that Riley found Liam, he knew he could not change the past, that he could not go back in time and slap himself for acting like an idiot, but he was sure about one thing that his sister was happy, not only because she was married to Liam, because apart from Liam she had her friends who loved her dearly and would do anything to make sure she is always happy.

Charles stayed in Cordonia for almost six weeks and he had to go back to San Francisco, he was in middle of packing when there was a knock on his door. He opened the door and found Riley at his door.

"I got this for you." She said handing over a white box to him.

"What's this?" Charles asked looking at the completely sealed box.

"Cronuts, I got it for you." Riley said

"Really?" Charles eyes lit up listening to her. "It has been too long since I had a good cronut. Thank you little one" He said as he gave her a quick hug.

After a while Charles was all prepared to go to the airport meanwhile as much as Riley wanted to go with him at the airport she couldn't because she had an important meeting which couldn't be missed. She bid the final goodbye to Charles at the palace gate with a promise that he would never block her from is life.

[noodlecupcakes]

Knock Knock it's me 👀 Prepare yourself for the imminent bombardment 🥲 I have reduced my list of questions a lot, I swear ! For Tabitha of course 💛

12. What’s the region they feel most connected to?

18. How do they feel about John?

20. How do they feel about Jacob? (You know where I'm going with this question 👀)

22. From Fall’s End which person they DON’T get along with?

29. How do they feel at the end of all the game events?

Oh you could have asked as many questions as you liked, I would have happily answered them all. Thank you so much for asking <3

I'm gonna answer for cultist Tabby instead of Deputy Murphy as cultist Tabby is my main 'canon' version of her whereas Deputy Murphy is for AU's.

12. What's the region they feel most connected to?

I would say Henbane River is the one Tabitha feels most connected too. Its the region that Joseph took her too for their first date, a simple picnic by the river. Tabitha finds the landscape relaxing and the river calming. She also visits Faith at Jessop's Conservatory once a week for lunch.

18. How do they feel about John?

During the events before and during FC5, Tabitha feels a little sorry for John as well as a little weary. She doesn't like that Joseph thinks he needs tough love to keep him in line and behave. But she wouldn't ever tell Joseph that what John really needs is a very good therapist. She loves her brother in law despite knowing about the baptisms and the confessions. Tabitha always tries to be positive around him and is always bringing him baskets of baked goods to Seed Ranch.

During the events of New Dawn (in my timeline all the Seeds survive) Tabitha still has a lot of love for her brother in law (and her other in laws). Tabitha really appreciates how good of a relationship John has with Hope (her and Josephs third child born in the bunker). John loves all his nieces and nephews but seems to be most close with Hope, teaching her how to skin animals and other handy skills with a knife.

20. How do they feel about Jacob? (You know where I'm going with this question 👀)

During the events before and during FC5, Tabitha is unsure how she feels about Jacob, mainly because she doesn't know if he likes her or not. He isn't exactly a warm friendly person as it is, keeping to himself up in the mountains. And Joseph does not let Tabitha venture to the Whitetail Mountains often if at all. However, they do eventually become closer when Tabitha has to stay with Jacob for a week for her safety. That week together helps the two understand each other better, Tabitha then makes it a tradition to invite the Seed siblings over for Sunday lunch, wanting the family to be closer. Joseph, of course loves this idea.

During the events of New Dawn, Tabitha initially tries to fight and deny her growing feelings for Jacob after Joseph goes into self exile. Tabitha's left with four children, one stepchild who hates her, and the entirety of New Eden to look after and run (thankfully with the help of her in laws but that's still a lot of work for one woman). Jacob steps up, helping her with the kids when he can and being a wonderful uncle, teaching Gabriel and Daniel how to hunt, helping Hope with her bow skills and accepting daisy chains from Angelica.

But eventually she cannot fight her feelings for Jacob anymore and whilst she feels some guilt initially starting an affair with her brother in law, she does come to love him for a time. Even if they do their best to keep their affair a secret. However their relationship does not last, things come to a more tragic end between the two.

22. From Fall’s End which person they DON’T get along with?

Tabitha is known as 'The Mother' after she marries Joseph so really she wouldn't get along with anyone from Falls End let alone any resistance members across Hope County. But I feel if I had to pick one in particular she would not get along with, it would be Jerome Jeffries. Mainly because of all the lies Joseph would have told her about the pastor.

29. How do they feel at the end of all the game events?

Call it cheating but in my 'canon', things do differ slightly to the games ending. Yes the nukes still go off and everyone's bunker bound, but the 'Deputy' does not make it. Tabitha, Joseph, Gabriel and Daniel are all holed up in a bunker together. Tabitha is understandably scared, her whole words just been shaken up and now she has to raise two young boys in a bunker for god knows how long. Tabitha is also worried about her in laws, hoping that they too made it into their bunkers in time and are safe.

FAQ POST

Doing this to clean up my pinned post a little.

Q: Are your requests open?

My requests are always open for now.

Q: Do you take commissions or can I pay you to write my request faster?

No. I do this as a hobby + profiting from fanfiction is a copyright infringement and I don't want to participate in that kind of stuff.

Q: Do you write for [fandom]?

Check my fandom list. If it's listed, I write for it. If it's not, I either don't know it or don't feel comfortable writing for it.

Pro tip: On web, use CTRL + F (or CMD + F on Mac) to find your fandom quickly. But please note that some fandoms are under a "Fandoms I no longer write for" banner. These are at the bottom of the list, and I’ve made it clear they’re no longer active.

Q: Do you write smut?

No. All sex scenes are fade to black. I do not feel comfortable writing that kind of stuff and I make no expections, even if there's a character/fandom no one else writes for.

If you feel the need to complain or guilt-trip me, claiming I’m selfish or that I’m your only option for smut in a particular fandom and I'm being selfish by turning it down because there's no one else, please understand that such behavior will result in a block. I write for enjoyment, and respecting my boundaries is non-negotiable.

Q: Do you write OOC character fics?

No. I know OOC is subjective and some may think something is in character while I don't think so, but I just don't feel comfortable writing characters like Jerome Valeska being cuddly and fluffy and cute, nor I want to write someone like Peter Pevensie as someone who's obsessive over reader.

Unfortunately, this may also apply to some prompts if you request them with certain characters. Like if you request B25. “You’re so warm…” “You’re so cold.” “Mmh, that’s why I like your warmth.” with Kaz Brekker, I will likely turn it down because I don't know how to make that work because Kaz and reader kinda need to cuddle in that scenario.

Q: How often do you post?

Starting from January 2025, I will post once a week. The post comes out every Friday at 4pm Eastern European Timezone. This pace may or may not pick up over time.

Q: Can I make a non-reader insert request?

This is exclusively a reader insert blog, so no. But as long as reader is the MC, canon ship fics are fine. Like for example, a Six of Crows fic where reader is trying to trick Kaz and Inej on a date and they work together with the other Crows to achieve that.

NOTE: I don’t write fanon ships with reader. While I have my own fanon ships and don’t necessarily ship every canon pairing, there are certain popular fanon ships I don't want to touch and there are also many I'm not aware of if I'm not super into the fandom.

Q: Do you do special events anymore? Follower celebrations, holiday events etc?

I decided to quit those and no longer announce my follower milestones, and holiday fics are off the table for now because I'm not sure if I'm able to spur out so many fics in such a short time right now.

Q: Can you add me to the taglist?

I no longer maintain taglists, sorry. They were too tedious to upkeep when compared to the amount of interaction I got from those tagged.

Alternative: If you have an AO3 account and are interested, head over to my AO3 series masterlist and pick out characters and fandoms you want to read about, AO3 informs you automatically whenever I upload something new to those.

Q: How does AO3 series taglist work? Do I need to sign up somewhere?

You’ll need an AO3 account. Once logged in:

Visit the series page you’re interested in.

Click "Subscribe" at the top-right corner of the page.

AO3 will send you an automatic email whenever I add something for that series.

If you’re only interested in certain fandoms or characters, it’s better to subscribe to those specific series instead of my entire account.

Q: I clicked a tag link in your masterlist, but it came up empty or only has a few fics. Why?

When I unprivated my blog after 2022 September-2024 January hiatus, Tumblr failed to reindex tags for posts when I unprivated them, it's a rather common bug. I recently found a fix, but it has to be done manually by going through every affected post, and there's hundreds of them and I'm trying to work out a way how to start doing that. As for tags that only have a few fics, it's also possible that tag just doesn't have more than that.

Q: I requested a week ago and it still hasn't come out, are you still planning to write it?

Yes, unless I’ve told you otherwise. Check my to-do list to see if your request is listed. If it’s not, I may have asked for a clarification for your request if something was left unclear to me (like if you request "dating headcanons for Peter" I have no idea which Peter do you mean because I currently write for 6 Peters at least) or turned it down, which you can confirm by searching my blog.

I prioritise older requests over newer ones and occasionally work on fresh requests if there's a new fandom I’m excited about.

If you’re tired of waiting, feel free to let me know, and I’ll remove your request from my WIPs.

Q: Can I repost your work elsewhere, like Wattpad fave fic books?

No. I have had my fair share of people who repost into some "my favourite x readers of [character] to Wattpad book (with credit) and their readers still assumed they're the author, so please don't. Consider posting a rec link instead! And of course you reblogging my works to your blog earns you a virtual smooch from me 😘

If your question wasn't listed here, feel free to send it in!

Interesting take re: the show hitting its stride in season two… I mean Jerome was great but like. Fish is mostly in S1 and that’s where she really SHINES 😩 when you said ��fish is my actual mother who birthed me” I felt that in my SOUL. She’s SO GOOD. Like sorry I know it’s the Ozzie and Eddie show but Fiiiiiiiish. I’m like Firefly’s shitty brothers about her.

Granted Lee is gr9 so. And she mostly shows up in S2 iirc, which, fine, fair. She was good even BEFORE she became a crime queen but god she was SO GOOD after!!! But then S5 seemed to relegate her back to Gordon wife????? Wrong and bad and dumb. HOWEVER I do like the idea of her and Babs in a really awful toxic throuple where they co-parent Jim’s kid and technically both date Jim but he’s not around much so they’re mostly dating each other I mean they don’t really like each other but they have SO MUCH IN COMMON come on it would be funny. You know it would. And it would be FUN. And interesting!!!

oh, don't get me wrong, it's not that I think we should throw all of season 1 in the trash! the establishment of Fish and Oswald alone + the examination of the workings of the criminal underworld (always fascinating in Gotham, part of why I really like the Penguin HBO series even though it's so unnecessary lol) + Jerome's origin make it valuable viewing. It's just that I think the show was confused about what it was and wanted to do, and the tone is markedly different from what follows. There's a sense that they wanted to play it straight, like a grimdark detective show, where Bruce Wayne is firmly just a little kid and Batman and all his Rogues are firmly ten, twenty years away from taking the forms we're familiar with.

They ditched all that pretty quickly and just went for a sillier, comic book-inspired approach where Bruce is a kid but also still Batman, kind of, and his villains are all taking their final forms well ahead of schedule (I don't blame them-- Batman without Batman or his Rogues is pretty dry). TBH, I give Barbara QUEEN credit for sort of "unlocking" the show-- it's fairly blah in large chunks until her little serial killer arc, straight out of a soap opera, and from that point on, the show completely stops taking itself seriously, which IMO is hugely to its advantage.

You're right about Fish, though. (One of my favorite things about Unpretty's Sorrowful and Immaculate Hearts series is the way she kind of picks and chooses elements from whatever Batman media she likes, and it is strongly implied that in her version of Batman, Fish-- a friend of Martha Wayne's dating back to childhood-- birthed a child, gave her up for adoption, and that child later becomes Catwoman. I think about it all the time-- what a clever tie-in.) And Lee, and Barbara. One thing the show does not struggle with is having interesting female characters who get to do a lot, even if it REGULARLY does them dirty-- case in point, LEE AND BARBARA BOTH IN SEASON FIVE. You're right, Lee gets shoved into the "cop wife" role even though it makes no sense, and what tf is with Barbara getting pregnant and completely defanged?? no. no, no, no. one of the reasons I'm writing a third Gotham fic set in No Man's Land is so I can undo some of the baffling shit that happened in season 5 (blaming it on a rushed schedule and an abbreviated number of episodes, thank youuuuu).

Lee and Barbara would make a good couple (leave Gordon out of it he doesn't deserve either of them lol) if they didn't hate each other! but let's be real, in a place like Gotham, a long-standing rivalry is basically a romance. I seem to remember them even burying the hatchet a bit in season 5, just because old grievances tend to take a backseat in No Man's Land. (I cannot wait to write the story set in No Man's Land.)

[i-have-no-brains]

So, a follow up to the post about the story I wrote. This is the one that shows it off. I picked the worst written scene I could find, just to give an idea of how bizarrely I used to write. Looking at it causes psychic damage to my already deteriorated brain, but hopefully I won't be the only one after today.

Here's the original scene:

At the broadcasting station which the radio was broadcasted A guy called Gerald (he always did the radio no matter what even if he was ill then in that case, he would do it at home because he lived at the station anyway.) was arguing with his fellow colleague Jerome about why he never got his coffee warm again (Gerald finds an excuse to shout at Jerome when possible) “WHY MUST I WAIT 5 MINUTES FOR MY COFFEE THEN WAIT AN EXTRA 2 TO LET IT COOL ONLY TO FIND THE TOP NEARLY FROZEN OVER?!” Gerald yelled “Mr. Gerald! I'm sorry! The machine needs repaired again! It's not my fault sir!” Jerome answered back “make sure it never happens again or I will make sure that when those riches are mine, I will lower your pay and make your brother do your job!” Gerald growled. “s-sir... you said that you weren't going to bother with the riches because they would mean the result of no more radio while you were gone and you would be forced to share with others! "Jerome squeaked “I will and can do what I wish Jerome, It's my business not yours. Understand?” Gerald said adding “also... you're in charge now. I'm getting my riches today. Good luck with my cousin Jim, he's rather... odd.”. Back with the group (who narrowly missed being blown up by a grenade two minutes after Gerald spoke...hmmm very suspicious that is...)

____________________________________________

And here's half of the remade version:

Miles away from Bonnie, Violet, M.O.X.I.E and Sparky, at a broadcasting station located on the outskirts of Sapphire City, the radio's live commentary had been put on hold while the host argued with his useless helper. The host, who is named Cyrus but better known as ‘The Faceless Charmer’, was complaining to Max, his helper, about why he once again was given lukewarm coffee. The sad fact is that Cyrus finds any reason to yell at Max, no matter how petty it might seem. It’s all just a cover up for the truth, which is that Cyrus actually cares about Max quite a lot and doesn’t want to admit it due to being stubborn and a little arrogant.

“Tell me why, every single time I ask you to make me a coffee... without fail, it’s cold?!” Cyrus yells, right up in Max’s face.

“Cyrus, I'm sorry! The machine needs repaired again! It's not my fault, sir!” Max nervously squeaks back.

“If it EVER happens again, I will string you up to the broadcasting satellite on top of the building and leave you there for the crows to eat!” Cyrus continues to yell.

“Y-yes sir, sorry sir! I’ll see that it’s fixed! Pl-please don’t send me up to the roof!”

“Good. Now, off you go and clean the floors or something.” Cyrus says, gesturing for Max to leave as he adds; “Also, I’m going out for a while. Look after the place while I’m gone and keep the radio running. I’m not sure when I’ll be back.”

“Okay... please be quick. I don’t like being here alone.” Max quietly says, fumbling with a broom as he tries to pick it up from the floor.

After a few minutes pass, Max peeks out the front door to see if Cyrus is completely gone. Seeing that the surrounding area outside is indeed empty, Max throws his broom aside and leans against the wall. His awkward demeanor has disappeared, replaced by a more annoyed one. He mumbles to himself, glaring at the floor with his arms crossed.

“...Sick of being told what to do... I’ll show him, take his damn radio and shove it... I bet he’s looking for those stupid riches and once he finds them, I’ll just be deadweight...”

Max steps away from the wall, going to the desk where Cyrus would usually sit and record for the radio. He opens a drawer on the desk, searching for a gun that he knows is hidden at the very back. A M1911 pistol, fully loaded with .45 ACP bullets. Usually, this gun is just in case of emergency and shouldn’t be used unless needed, but Max considers his situation to be important enough that he’s allowed to take the gun. Grabbing around aimlessly for a few extra seconds, he also manages to find some spare bullets just lying in the drawer.

“Perfect. These will do nicely. If I'm lucky enough, I can stalk Cyrus from just far enough that I’ll eventually get the jump on him. That idiot has no idea what’s coming for him.” Max says to himself, smirking.

____________________________________________

As you can see, there's a lot of differences. I've changed quite a few things to make the story more serious rather than some shitpost fanfiction about Fallout.

Feel free to give any kinds of input on how to make the new version even better than it's already going, because I would definitely appreciate that.

Anyway, I got stuff to do and a nap to take. I'm too tired for this shit.

My brother's girl

Pairing: Jerome Valeska X Reader; Jeremiah Valeska X Reader

Warnings: creepy Miah, fluff, slightly smut

Words: 2103

Summary: Jeremiah wants Jerome's girl.

Note: Sorry for the mistakes and the English. I think it's the longest story I've ever written 😂. First time I'm proud of myself.

Part 2

..........................................................................

His first thoughts about the girl were not positive, when he had seen her was when he had returned from the bookstore and had entered his trailer, freezing at the sight of a girl with y/h/c hair wearing only a shirt that was definitely big but showed her thighs and legs, in front of the stove cooking what he thought might be breakfast since it was morning.

She was pretty but she was a stranger, from her body and features she could very well be one of those obnoxious and stupid girls...she could be his age or maybe a few years younger, the way she moved could easily charm anyone but Jeremiah wasn't going to fall so low by letting that stranger in his trailer blind him or cloud his thoughts, after all he still had to find answers to his questions: what was she doing there? Who was that girl? Why was she wearing what looked like Jerome's shirt? Why was she cooking? Was she a friend of his mother's...unlikely given her young age but it was always an option to be considered; he knew very well that he could ask her, walking in and put his books on the table to be heard by her, despite the low music playing and filling the room they were in, he could open his mouth and ask her who she was and what she was doing there, ask her her intentions, ask her why she was dressed like that but he didn't need to since a few minutes later he heard the annoying voice of his twin who came out of their bedroom yawning and stretching, obviously wearing only sweatpants and without having combed his hair or brushed his teeth... gross.

But the thing that struck the ginger with the glasses the most was the fact that his twin wasn't at all disturbed by the presence of that beautiful stranger there, on the contrary, he was clearly happy about it since the first thing he did was just talking to her and hugging her from behind, pressing himself against her while leaving a wet kiss on her shoulder "gooooood morning, doll, how come you're already up?" he pouted as he moved her shirt to expose her shoulder more and nibbled her skin playfully "I was hoping you would help me with my morning problem".

Morning problem...what is the morning problem that Jerome could have, Jeremiah asked himself, quickly looking up when he realized shortly after...his morning wood...this however helped him realize that she wasn't a stranger...maybe to him but not to Jerome since she was sleeping with him apparently.

This answered a few questions but not all, unfortunately, and generated more but Jeremiah didn't want to see the scene in front of him anymore disgusted by his twin's lack of grace "Good morning" he put down the books he had picked in the library, turning his head and meeting the y/e/c eyes of the girl who had turned to him just like Jerome.

He thought he could shift his gaze, quickly take care of his things and go but those eyes of hers were like damn magnets and the sweet surprised smile didn't help, luckily there was Jerome to help and interrupted that moment with a snort "Brother... couldn't you have stayed out longer? You have something to do...to leave me and my doll alone" he purred, biting her shoulder making her gasp and giggle as she playfully slapped his shoulder rolling her eyes "oh stop it, Romie, it's just morning, how do you have so much energy?" he smiled purring at her as he grabbed her hips and held her pressed against his chest "and how do you look so beautiful?".

Disgusting and honeyed were the adjectives that came to Jeremiah's mind as he continued to watch them, only realizing the girl's proximity when she was in front of him "I'm Y/n" he nodded slightly fixing his glasses while agreeing to shake her hand "Jeremiah..."

At least she seemed polite, maybe she wasn't like those girls who feel superior and are obnoxious to everyone...

"Nice to meet you Jeremiah..have you had breakfast yet or would you like to join me and Jerome?" the ginger interrupted them again, starting to get bored, by taking her by the hips as he placed the food on the plate and sat her down on his lap "what are our plans for today, cupcake?" the girl smiled, turning to look at the boy "ours?" he nodded, pecking her lips while hugging her with a tighter grip "OUR plans!" Y/n giggled pecking his lips again "you're unique, Jerome Valeska" he smiled touching her nose with his "insult or compliment, gorgeous?" "compliment of course, hot ginger".

After a few minutes Jeremiah was no longer sure if they knew he was still in that room with them since it looked like Jerome was eating her face practicing what people call 'french kissing' or maybe making out.... he didn't know, he'd never had any experience in these things but he didn't mind, he had other things on his mind and all that was a secondary thought; he didn't leave the room he just stood there eating the food Y/n had cooked and damn it was good, this showed that she could do something and maybe she wasn't as stupid as she thought before or maybe she was since she was consensually..or so it seemed, with her twin.

When they stopped making out and started eating Y/n stayed leaned against Jerome's chest the whole time letting him cuddle her as she fed him and ate "to answer your question from earlier, handsome.... we don't have any plans.. WE, I have homework to finish and project to complete.. which I might have done last night if it wasn't because of you" she giggled at the groan of the ginger that hid his face in her neck making her laugh more "you weren't complaining last night, doll, and homeworks are so boring!".

All that new information was confusing and intriguing Jeremiah at the same time, projects? homework? She was going to school then and she was the same age as them, of age too "what kind of projects?" the two looked up to look at him, Jerome seemed to have realized his presence only then and it was he who answered without giving Y/n the time "architecture, my doll is studying architecture, right, doll?".

Doll...it sounded so crude to Jeremiah, a nickname he wouldn't use to call a girl, he would probably opt for 'my dear' or 'dearest' but that was his opinion.

Architecture, huh, apparently she wasn't really that stupid.

The ginger with glasses's gaze had been focused for several minutes on the girl who was sitting at the kitchen table working on the projects and working on papers on the table.

She was neat but not even that neat...she was like water when she worked.. there was more room? She would expand to occupy that space too just like water.

Jerome on the other hand was with his head resting on her lap and letting her stroke his hair as he talked without a break for more than two hours, but the girl didn't seem unnerved or annoyed, she listened to him and continued with her work, answering sometimes or just giggling.

It was strange that whole situation for Jeremiah, Jerome seemed..different..around that girl and even looked at her with a strange look, what was he thinking? About killing her? Will her be his first victim? Does he want to torture her in her sleep or...?

"Stop staring at me with those puppy eyes, Romie" chuckled the girl who gave him a quick look before continuing, Jerome continued to look at her like that, hinting a smile and turning her face towards him "I think I love you, Y/n.. is that a good thing or a bad thing?" Jeremiah was surprised and the girl as well given her facial features but her expression quickly changed as she smiled again and went back to her papers "a good thing since I love you too".

The ginger was over the moon, Jeremiah could tell, he had never seen such a big smile on his twin's face and it creeped him out quite a bit, he didn't deserve her, Y/n was pretty much the opposite of him! Smart, beautiful, nice and willing to help people...Jerome on the other hand was stupid, crude, creepy and born bad, he didn't deserve an angel like Y/n..according to Jeremiah.

He almost felt sad when he heard that Y/n lived in that city where they had stopped 'Gotham city' but he was relieved as soon as his twin told him...well he didn't tell him in person, he had..overheard him while the two of them were talking in his room, that the girl would be staying with them at the circus all summer since she didn't have to go to school.

The days since Y/n had joined the circus temporarily were pretty much the same, they would wake up together and cuddle or fix Jerome's little morning problem..if you know what I mean.

They would have breakfast together in the trailer or going outside, she would help Jerome with the things he had to do and she would also do the dishes while he cuddled and stuck to her like a mussel.

Jeremiah still didn't understand how she wasn't bothered by any of this at all, if she was his he wouldn't be so...annoying and possessive, he wouldn't treat her like a doll, he would treat her like a fucking princess, he wouldn't use nicknames like doll, gorgeous, cupcake, toots, baby doll, doll face, he would just use a couple of elegant but sweet ones like darling, dearest, my dear or just call her by her name.

He didn't know why he was so jealous, maybe it was because his twin seemed so happy even though he was in hell (the circus) or maybe it was because Jerome had found someone who seemed to love him before he did...the only thing he knew is that he didn't like that and he wanted Y/n.

He had to have her, she was the only one who had made him feel new things without even knowing, even as he watched her in the room with Jerome, the moments when the ginger would drop her or pull her to sit on his lap and start one of their make out sessions that usually ended: With her being fucked against the wall or against the bed or on the floor, her bouncing quickly while Jerome buried his face in her boobs, allowing Jeremiah to imagine himself in his place more easily, imagine being the one with his cock buried in her pussy and with his face between her boobs or maybe between her thighs.

He'd like that, he'd like that a lot but he didn't know how to do it, he'd tried telling her lies about his twin, exaggerating real facts and trying to get her to leave him but it never worked; he'd even been caught by Jerome more than once, Jeremiah'd hoped it would end in a fight but it would end in a fuck or cuddles between her and the ginger with messy hair!

"You're so beautiful in the morning...and all day" Jerome kissed her, smiling in love;

if they were in a cartoon the ginger would surely have eyes with heart shaped pupils or his heart would come out of his chest beating hard and fast for Y/n;

she smiled returning the kiss as she finished making breakfast, adjusting her glasses on her nose and turned and fed him with the food giggling at the moan of pleasure the ginger made "I ... I want you as my wife, doll!".

Yes, there were those mornings where they were cheesy and in love and Jeremiah hated it, he felt every time on those days that he had no hope of having her all to himself.

"What-" Jerome gently removed her glasses, putting them on himself, looking up at her with a flirty smirk "how do they look on me?" Y/n giggled kissing his nose "you look like a sexy professor or a more rebellious version of Jeremiah...you choose" he chuckled darkly putting her on his lap "sexy professor.. I like that better, dolly".

He hated it!

TO1 waking you up in the morning

I promise you I'm still working on my actually requests my brain just still isn't in the right mood I'm sorry these are taking so long

Jaeyun

*insert the wake up, darling joke*

Fr though I just want to see him where he tries to be nice about waking you up by rubbing your back slowly

But he doesn't really work so with some shaking he tries to wake you up, which slowly it does but you still pretend to be asleep

So he tries something else and says the wake up, darling thing to you

And you low-key hate it so you get scared and get out of bed super quickly, never doing that again

Chihoon

Probably the one that doesn't care if you sleep in, like he'll just leave you there

Or join you, whenever one he's in the mood for

But fr if you have to be up for something and you don't wake up, he's not waking you up either so try not to be late

There might be some occasion where he complains loudly that you're sleepy and just comes and lays next to you roughly, making the bed bounce

Scared the shit out of you but at least it worked

Donggeon

Sweet baby boy her is going to be your perfect romance fantasy like-

He'd turn to you in bed and caress your cheek and jawline with his finger, admiring your cute sleeping face

The touch slowly makes you wake up and your meet by his smiling face

Soft Morning Kisses™

Probably stays in bed with you for awhile after wake you up just cuddling and kissing you everywhere because he doesn't want to ruin the moment

Chan/Chanhyuk

Don't judge me but I feel like he has a thing with tickling and I think he used it to wake up Chihoon this one time

So it's no different with you

He doesn't even to see how long it takes you to wake up, when he's ready he's waking you up too

Pulls away the covers as his hands gently tickles your sides, slowly and gently waking up up with a surprise

It's never hard enough to jolt you awake but enough to make you giggle cutely at him, followed by soft kiss

Jisu

Honestly I feel like you'd always wake up before him

And you don't really want to wake him up since you know he's busy and tired but he's so cute

Probably just scoot closer to him and wrap your arm over his chest, resting your head on his should burying into his next

You'd just close your eyes and not really go back to sleep but just enjoy being close to him

He'd eventually wake up to you cuddling into him and he'd be so happy that this is what he gets to wake up to from now

Minsu

Really sweet about it

Probably just doesn't want you to sleep in for too long and since he's up he'll normally try to wake you up

Sits down on the edge of the bed and strokes your hair, quietly whispering for you to wake up

If that's not working he'll shake you a bit to see if that works, which normally it does

Smiles and kisses you good morning after your up and probably takes you to go make breakfast with him

J.You/Jeyou

Low-key feel like he's also be a tickler or just something of equal forcefulness (?)

Like either that or just lays on you kissing your neck or picks you up from bed and walks around with you

Jokingly complains about you too some days when he wakes you up

But then you'd both just go back and forth being sassy to each other and he'd think your adorable trying to be "superior" and just nod sarcastically

Gives into you though kissing to dramatically

Kyungho

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that he's a morning person so he usually wakes up earlier than others

Tries not to wake up when he gets up, but can't help but peck your check or forehead before he goes to work out

Although depending on how long afterwards it takes for you to wake up he'll take matters into his own hand

Sits on top of you, straddling you before laying down on top of you

Sits there until you're awake, even if that means bothering you with kisses until you do

Jerome/Sungmin

Omg- literally bothers you so much but he's adorable so it's ok

Starts by just cuddling/spooning you but when you don't wake up he gets all pouty whines quietly even though you can't hear him

Shakes you gently, when you start the wake up he gets so smiley and just starts kissing your face as you slowly come into consciousness

You laugh at him, trying to roll away but he'll follow and lay on top of you, leaving ticklish kisses down your neck making you giggle

"Ok, I'm up!" You say before he stops and looks down at you with puppy dog eyes before leaving a few more kisses in your lips and nose pretty much pure fluff

Woonggi

Another one to try and shake you awake while whining cutely

Would be the one to make little threats that he won't kiss you or something even though he knows you can't hear

Sarcastically gets frustrated and leaves only to come back every 5 minutes to see if your awake

Gives up waiting for you and just sits on you while he loudly whines and shakes you awake

And then when you do wake up and ask him what's his deal he just walks away like nothing happened

[bonded-by-love-and-hatred]

Ok ok ok, so. About the idea of Jeremiah being adopted by by the Waynes instead of the Wildes. Do you think Jeremiah would have told Bruce that he was Jerome's brother after he gets broken out of Arkham? Obviously they're twins so I'm sure Bruce would have questions, but would Miah answer honestly?

I feel like it would depend on how close the boys are come to think of it. (I say they're close, like REALLY close. Closer-than-brothers-should-be-even-if-one-is-adopted kind of close 😉) I don't think Miah would even wait to be confronted by Bruce, he'd just tell him as soon as he found out Jerome escaped.

But what do you think?

I think he'd tell him even sooner than that. Probably right after hearing about the whole circus affair at the GCPD because otherwise he'd run the risk of Bruce getting mad at him, and he couldn't stand that. And if Bruce did get upset, wondering why he kept a secret (they don't keep secrets, except Miah who has many or just one big one) about having a twin, Jeremiah would probably fall back on similar stories that he told Lila in order to get away from the circus.

He'd feel guilty about lying to Bruce because they are indeed very close (😉 question is: does Bruce even feel the same way or even understand what their strange relationship is? That's something I think about a lot, but it takes a lot to explain so I won't rn) BUT he can't tell him the truth and risk Bruce turning his back on him. He's trying to pick the lesser of two evils in his mind, and how would Bruce ever find out the truth anyway? Why would he believe Jerome over him if they were to meet? Him and Bruce are brothers, not Bruce and Jerome.

Jeremiah's paranoia would be in high gear, barely keeping steady thanks to Bruce, who is just trying his best to comfort him in every way he can.

Bruce would be pretty understanding, I think. He's always soft with Miah. He's not even upset about not knowing about Jerome before. He's just shocked by Miah running into his bedroom early in the morning, throwing himself on the bed apologizing and begging for forgiveness because he's kept a secret from Bruce. Maybe he doesn't even ask why Miah kept him a secret after hearing about Jerome's arrest, so Miah doesn't have to tell those lies 🤷

Miah's paranoia would only get worse when Jerome was broken out, probably to the point that Alfred has to slip him some sleeping pills just so the boy can finally rest.

And then when the whole charity gala thing happens, which Miah didn't attend because he rarely did but especially not now, then it just turns into a whole mess. Bruce, with or without hearing Miah's stories, understands why Miah left the circus and Jerome behind. (Ouch.) And Miah would be furious that Jerome touched him, actually kinda sad when he remembers the good times with Jerome who's now dead, and now even more paranoid and protective over Bruce. He would not trust Theo Galavan at ALL, and he'd hate Silver for encroaching on his territory (Bruce). He wouldn't like Theo for killing Jerome either. Theo is quite confused by this mysterious twin and would maybe try to see if he was anything at all like Jerome to use that in his favor to get to Bruce? Maybe. It wouldn't work anyway.

I do think tho, that Miah might mention Jerome from time to time when they were younger. He just wouldn't use names or even familiar titles such as "brother". Maybe he'd just say "this kid in the circus". This would be after he trusts Bruce, of course. Not that that takes long because they're connected, and how could he not trust the most honest, innocent, and sweetest boy ever? (I'm not even being sarcastic, that's just who Bruce is lol)

Sorry, you asked a single question (two, technically lol) and I just vomited out my thoughts lmao. I've swallowed down the rest for now so this doesn't get any longer and because it's twelve-thirty and I need sleep, but hopefully I actually answered your question amongst the rambling 😅

masterlist

It was already dark out and no one in your house was answering the phone.

There was only one other person you could and your heart was fluttering again.

As if you weren’t in control of your body you dial his number.

His voice sounded like the one thing that you’ve been missing in your life, “I’ve been expecting your call beautiful.”

You couldn’t help but giggle like a schoolgirl, “I'm sorry for taking so long, had a busy day. Listen, I'm sorry for asking you this but is there any way you can pick me up?”

“Of course! I’ll be right there. Where are you?”

“I'm at the florist shop on 6th.”

“See you in a bit, my queen.”

He hung up and his nickname for you made you giddy and blush.

Only 5 minutes have passed and a town car pulled up next to you. The window rolled down and you see his face with a smile stapled to it.

You reach to open the door but he gets out of the car and beats you to the punch. He opened the door like a gentleman. You smiled at him and slid in the seat. He closed it and went back around to his side. When he got in you were beyond nervous.

The car started to drive and his hand caressed yours. You started to calm down.

“Um, where are we going?” you say breaking the silence.

“Anywhere you want! Are ya hungry?”

You nod and he tells the driver to take him to his usual place.

You arrive in front of a little diner. The place looked like it was shot out of the 1950s and you loved it.

He had the restaurant cleared, and he had the staff make the atmosphere romantic.

Lights dim, nice jazz music, and a single stem of Belladonna placed in a small vase in the middle of the table.

He opens the door to the diner for you and you sit down and he sits right across from you.

You and him order some burgers and a milkshake to share.

“So what were you doing at the florists?” he asked looking longingly in your eyes.

You didn't want to tell him the real reason because you were afraid that saying it out loud would hurt him.

“I met my friend there and we just lost track of time.”

Your hand was on the table tapping away, still nervous. He reaches across the table and grabs your hand. You then start to giggle.

“What's so funny beautiful?”

“It's just that I’m here with a guy that I met at a club and I don't even know his name.”

“My name is Jerome, beautiful. And yours is Y/N.”

“And how do you know that?”

“Well I do my research and I know your family.”

You were surprised that he brought up your family. You would think that a “businessman” like himself would keep that stuff on the down-low.

“And how exactly do you know them?”

“Me and your father do business together.”

You knew what the business was but you didn't want to pry it open.

The food came and it was probably one of the best you've ever had.

You and him finish and decide to take a walk to the pier. Getting near the coast was getting cooler and Jerome noticed and did the gentlemanly thing and put his suit jacket around you.

You and him talked about meaningless things all night. For some reason, you ended up slow dancing when the sun was coming up.

“Where have you been all my life, Y/N?”

You look up at him and smile, “I’ve been waiting for you, Jerome.”

You both continue to dance until his driver comes letting him know that something has happened.

Jerome had business to do near where you were, he wanted his driver to drop you off to ensure that you were safe but Ivy lived nearby and you would rather see her than your mother.

He insisted that one of his men walk you there and you didn’t want to argue so you agreed.

You and Jeromes goon walk to Ivy's. He didn't say a word until you got to her house. Just a simple goodbye.

You used the key Ivy gave you. “Mainly for emergencies but also if you want to escape the world for a little,” she said.

You walked into the apartment and she didn’t seem to be home. So you decided to just take a quick shower. You placed your clothes along with Jerome’s jacket on the catch-all chair and let the warm water wash all over you.

You were almost done washing your body when a hello echoed throughout the apartment.

“It’s just me Ivy!”

She sighs with relief, “Oh thank god, thought I was going to have to kill you.”

You laugh, “Please don't.”

You get out of the shower and your phone starts to ring, Ivy answers with you being busy drying off.

“Okay, I'll hand it off to her.”

She hands you the phone and it was your maid Flora, “Miss Y/N, your mother is very mad and she has another big day of wedding stuff planned. She wants to know where you are.”

You can hear your mother on the other side in the background yelling.

You groaned in annoyance, “I'm with Ivy, do you know what she needs done? I can get some done on my own”

“Okay miss, she needs you to head to the dress shop to get a fitting at 3 o’clock.”

“Did she already pick out my dress?”

Flora whispers, “Unfortunately yes, miss.”

“Fine, I'll get that done. Thank you, Flora.”

You hang up and flail yourself on Ivy’s bed. “How about we go together? We can make a whole day of it. We’ll get brunch and then do the fitting and maybe go to the botanical gardens.”

“That sounds great Ive but aren't you banned from the gardens?”

“Yes, but I can get them to change their minds,” she says with an evil smirk.

You both laugh and you get dressed in some of the clothes you had left at Ivy’s.

You ate slowly at brunch, you didn’t want to go to do the fitting.

But Ivy made you finish because she knew that if you didn’t your mom was going to rip you a new one.

You walked into the shop and everything was white. It burned.

“Miss Y/N welcome! Why don't you come with me and try the dress on.” The shop attendant said.

You walked into the dressing room with her and the dress was just okay. Nothing you dreamed of for your wedding. You walked out and Ivy noticed that you were sad. You step onto the platform and look at yourself in the mirror.

The dress poofed out and the veil was covering your face.

Little did you know that Jerome was across the street having a business meeting with another one of his associates. Jerome’s eyes wandered and landed on you. He cut the meeting short and went to see what you were doing.

He got up to the window and saw you all in white. He couldn’t tell that you were crying. And he walked away confused and upset.

Ivy got up from the couch and started to comfort you, hugging you.

“Ivy I don't want this.” you cry and start to fan yourself. “It’s so hot! Why is it getting so hot?”

You were having a panic attack. Ivy got the dress off of you and the shop attendant was just staring at the both of you, which got Ivy upset, “Do you see something you like you stupid cunt?”

Ivy took you into the bathroom and dabbed a cool towel on your face, “Honey everything is going to be okay.”

“No, it’s not Ive. My mother is controlling every aspect of my life. I can't breathe. Ivy, I keep feeling like it’s going to happen again.”

“Hey look at me! It’s not going to happen again. I won’t let it happen again.” she hugs you and you start to calm down.

You finish the fitting and you head back to Ivy’s house.

You got to her stoop when she got a text, “Shit! I'm sorry, it’s work, go make yourself at home okay?”

You nod and go your separate ways.

You walk into her home and you could see the sunset over the ocean out her window.

“Beautiful sunset isn’t it?” a voice said by the window.

“Jerome! What are you doing here?” you skip over to him hugging him, but he didn’t hug as tightly back.

“I'm here to see how your day was.”

“Oh well, you could have called or texted me. But my day was overall okay.”

“Really? Nothing exciting happened today?”

“Not really.”

He got closer to you, “I know you’re lying and I wouldn’t want to start a relationship with a lie.”

You were still confused, “I'm not lying.”

“Oh really then it wasn’t you that I saw trying on wedding dresses with Ivy?”

With that, your blood ran cold.

Jerome x female reader (part 4)

Warnings: smut

Word count: 1877

*Days later*

Living with Jerome wasn't as bad as you actually thought. Yes, his possessiveness and always playing the boss annoyed you a lot but you've learned to ignore it.

You literally zoned everything out that made you feel uncomfortable or that annoyed you. And it worked. You were a lot calmer than before, you didn't start panicking immediately when Greenwood or Dobkins were staring at you. You stayed calm because sooner or later they would end up arguing with Jerome if he got aware of it because he hated people staring at you.

You even found 2 new friends: Tabitha and Barbara.

They both were kind to you and helped you how to defend yourself against all these strange lunatics. They treated you how to use a gun, how to fight with or without weapons. You weren't a pro but you got it fast.

It was just a little ordinary for you that they both kept fucking behind Theo's back but it didn't matter to you. You did that with Jerome as well, well, it was more or less behind Theo's back. You both weren't really quiet and you both did it pretty often...and the bites and marks on your neck were pretty obvious because your neck was full of it.

Right now, you were relaxing in your bed watching the news:

"Breaking News

Since a few days (Y/n) (Y/ln) will be missed. Her friend (Y/bff/n) (Y/bff/ln) told that she was about to visit them after watching the cruel claim the Maniax' shot caller Jerome Valeska was giving us. Her friend said she tried to call (Y/n) several times but she didn't pick up the phone. Her friend's afraid that either the Maniax have kidnapped or killed her.

If you see her or have an idea where (Y/n) (Y/ln) could be then please report to the GCPD. Every information can be useful!"

You turned the TV off.

You smirked for yourself. Yes, it sucked that you couldn't be with your friends not could you go out - but you loved this big amount of attention. You were the person peope were looking for. Everyone's eyes were on you as if you were a famous person.

Suddenly your door opened - Barbara.

"Hey darling- ugh, is Jerome still in the bathroom?" She sighed frowning "He should hurry up. Time is running!"

"Calm down Babs," you giggled a little "Wanna watch the news with me? I'm in the TV! My friend is missing me."

"Yeah, I've seen that already." She gave you a short smile "We just need to be careful now. Don't want cops chasing my ass."

"Understandable." You nodded "But...you know, somehow I like this attention. All eyes on me...I never really had that. I was just a simple girl, you could even call me a ghost because no one really noticed me...and now the whole city knows me because I just 'disappeared'. I feel famous and happy."

"Probably because you're famous, somewhat." Barbara gave you a grin flickering her tongue.

"May be, I just know I want more of it. I love being the head of missed people, and I love being the headline." you chuckled letting out a sigh in happiness.

"Wow, Jerome's really got a big effect on you, darling." Barbara scoffed.

"Why's that?"You frowned not understanding what she meant.

"Sweetie, days ago you've been the most anxious and shy girl amongst us. You were frightened by everything that was just moving...and look at you now. You're a smart, calm, sassy ass that reaches for fame - as he does." You both chuckled.

"I could tell you the same with Tabitha. She has to be a master in bed for calming you down after a stressed day. I mean, on the one you're bitching around and after Tabitha 'talks to you in private' at night, you're a sunshine in the next morning." I laughed loudly making Barbara blush.

"Says you! I think I don't need to remind you that the whole city can hear you." Barbara mocked with a laughter.

"At least just the city is hearing me." You laughed louder "I'm sorry, I had to."

"Hey ladies,"Jerome came out of the bathroom before Barbara could respond. He was   just wearing a claret gown, his hair was still wet from the shower "I see, we're in a good mood, doll, aren't we?"

"As always," you grinned "Just had a very nice conversation with Barbara."

"Yeah," Barbara grinned, it faded though as she faced Jerome "Now hurry up, ginger. We don't wanna be late." She left quick.

"She's a feisty one, I like that," Jerome just let out a sigh with a short grin closing the door "But I hate being bossed around. I am the boss!"

He made  his way to you slowly. Then he grabbed your hands pulling you fast out of the bed that you stood close to him. You immediately wrapped your arms around his neck while wrapped his around your waist.

You knew this rough undertone on him. He tried to be kind in front of you but actually he was pissed of being commanded - especially by a woman.

"I know and she does, too. She doesn't mean to be a bitch," You assured him with giving him a smile "She's just stressed. Probably needs a quick fuck or something to calm down."

"Hm," Jerome just hummed and shrugged, not really paying attention to what you were saying. Instead he grabbed your ass harshly pulling you close to him. You could feel his bulge growing against your leg "Talking about a quick fuck..."

Before you could even answer, Jerome pressed his lips against yours. His hands grabbed your cheeks and pressed your face even more against his to intense the kiss. His light chuckle in the kiss only made let you blush after you let out a little moan. He pressed his body against yours to close the gap between you two. Your lips parted this time to let his tongue explore your mouth and you couldn't help but moan as he slipped his tongue into your mouth fighting for dominance. You r hands wandered up tangling hour fingers into his hair, gripping and pulling his head further down, deepening the kiss.

He pressed you against the wall and slid a knee in the space separating your thighs to position his body between your legs. His hands gripped your ass lifting you up to wrap your legs around his waist. He lowered his head down to leave a bunch of wet kisses on your neck, you pulled him in closer with your hands and bit your lip in arousal. He licked and bit at the soft skin of your neck, leaving his mark there making you gasp. His lips found yours again and once more.

Your shirt was ripped apart from your body by his eagerness to fuck you and he could feel a strip of your bare skin against his. You arched up into him more and suddenly your hands left his head so that you could the knot of his gown. You shove the gown down from his body, now he stood naked in front of you; his errection was strongly pressed against your crotch.

He unclasped your bra hastily and without pulling away from your mouth he tossed it across the room. With your bare breasts against his chest, you felt a rush of heat slowly spread throughout your body.

You tightened your legs around his waist and pressed him even more against your body. You became horny from the wild make out session; you wanted him right here, right now.

His hand reached down and shoved the button of your pants through its hole impatiently. Eagerness was written in his face. He couldn't wait anymore to finally inset his hard member into you, feel the warm and wet walls on his skin, making you moan and scream his name until you cum.

He slid his hands down to your panties, ripping it off from your legs and throwing it behind him. He moaned quietly when he felt just how hot and wet you were for him. You didn't want to wait any longer and neither did he, it was becoming unbearable. You both wanted, even needed pleasure to be satisfied.

Instantly and without any kind of hesitation, he shove his member into your wet entrance. You let out a gasp followed by a moan, your body stretching to accommodate him.

He slowly pulled out before thrusting back in with a sharp snap of his hips.

Your whole body felt weak with every thrust he did into you as every time you had sex with him. You were completely understand his control, he could do everything with you. Your body shivered slightly through this pleasure he was giving you. Every thrust hurt more, each of your moans became louder, Jerome became faster. Your head was dug into the crook of his neck, your nails were dug into his shoulders leaving marks while you tried to adjust just fast pace and the pleasure.

"Oh God, Jerome!" You cried out loud while scratching his whole back down.

You felt his nails were dug deeper in your ass and his grunts made you shiver in pleasure with every thrust. And again he drilled his long hard member into you making sure he hit your g spot every time he entered your cunt.

He loved hearing you moan, you say he was addicted to it. You moans were giving him chills, aroused him. He couldn't get enough of it. If he could he would fuck you non stop, just to hear all these sweet moans of yours.

You moaned louder as he speeded up. You were hot and tight around him, you heard him swearing with a moan as he felt your walls clenchinh more on his member.

He groaned your name out quietly and you responded by rocking your hips up to give him all the pleasure he needed now.

You bit your lower lip nervously as a knot was built in your abdomen - you knew you were close. You moaned uncontrollably caused by all the pleasure which didn't even give you the chance to hold anything back - you really couldn't as hard as you tried to. You couldn't handle it all. It was too much for your body. You legs started to shake with each of Jerome's thrusts.

Gripping onto his back tighter, you buried your face in the crook of his neck to stifle your cry as you came all over him without any warning. He gasped lowly as you covered him in your tight and warm wetness. Your legs were twitching and your chest heaving. He thrust his hips several more times until he couldn't hold back any more, releasing into you. A soft moan escaped your lips upon the contact, you held him close and kept your head underneath his neck, breathing heavily with him.

"Didn't know you needed it that much right now." You said under gasps still trying to calm down from your high.

"Dont think I'm done with you, doll," Jerome grinned "I just wanted to let you breathe"

[slashingdisneypasta]

About that with the reader who's too reluctant to initiate the so desired touch, do you really think they would be that fine with it? Wouldn't they be confused or annoyed with it? I believe that they would keep a distance between, because it seems like the reader doesn't want to be touched? And that they doesn't have interest in her therefore anympre? Would be angry with her for avoiding the touches herself? I hope that makes sense? You know, I'm really insecure about it, although I'm longing for it so much. I always feel creepy when I'm melting into even the slightest touch. I just want to be hugged and held, lay against their shoulder, hold their hand, let my fingers being played with, have a hand laying on my tight, walk arm-in-arm and anything else there might be...

I do see that! And you can imagine it however you like but the way I was thinking, is that- they are basically all the same. Having grown up very lacking in love themselves (Barbara’s parents certainly don't sound like cuddly type, Jerome and Jonathan are the same, Oz had his mother but no one else, Ed- I mean clearly, Jervis never got affection from who he wanted so while he may have been loved by others it probably didn't effect him, I can definitely see Freeze being very reluctant about affection despite maybe wanting it, etc except maybe for Vic Z and Tabitha who I think is the only well balanced one in this group) or being very lacking in love and affection now mixed in with how shameless basically all the Gotham’s Rogues are they would probably smother their S/O in affection- multiplied by a thousand when they realise why you react the way you do (All unsure and maybe a bit uncomfortable, but not pushing away and even reciprocating as much as you can. Plus how the heat gathers in your face and your heart beats much faster) when they do so. And they’re all for sure smart enough to pick up on it. 

They would stop though if you told them you aren't ready (Except for probably Jerome). They’re happy to go with baby steps (ESPECIALLY OZ. He’s in the exact same boat, I think). 

Oh man, I’m similar with affection /: I absolutely do not want people touching me but also it feels kind a nice sometimes /: Safer to just say no to all, though. I’m sorry you’re so uncomfortable and insecure about it. Please do not force yourself to act comfortable with it if you aren't, man, even if you want to be. And try not to feel creepy, I’m assuring you right here right now- if someone is giving you affection its because they are truly fond of you and want you to reciprocate. You’re not creepy, you’re just like everyone else. Its normal to want this. Human.
