Thingy about Theo being sick cause I'm sick and thought of this when I couldn't sleep last night :) TW: suffocation/sh mentions
(Background: Theo got really sick and threw up on their shark plushie that helps them sleep)
Dick, entering Theo's room: Hey, Fledgling, heard you weren't feeling too hot...
Theo, siting up in bed suddenly: *dizzily smiles and waves at Dick before collapsing back onto his bed*
Dick, sitting next to him on his bed: okay... anyways, since your shark is getting washed, do you wanna use Zitka for tonight? how does that sound?
Theo: *latches onto the stuff elephant and snuggles into it*
Dick, ruffling his hair: aww, guess you're to out of it to be a little menace right now, huh? *as he leaves* feel better soon, Fledgling.
later, in the kitchen or sm idk
Dick: oh, hey, Bruce, wanted to let you know that Theo finally fell asleep, I let him use Zitkz and he was out like a light.
Bruce: That's good. Thank you, Richard.
Dick: Yea, he's so out of it though, I've never seen him so relaxed.
Bruce, Ah, yes, the medication he is on helps with that.
Dick: What, like NyQuil?
Bruce: Well, that and some anxiety meds.
Dick: You got him to take them? I thought he hated those.
Bruce: ...
Dick: Bruce?
Bruce: I had no choice.
Dick: Did you drug him?
Bruce: I did what I had to.
Dick: BULLSHIT! He's still fucking healing, Bruce!
Bruce: He was suffocating himself!
Dick: He- what?
Bruce: *sighs* He has been to congested to breath through his nose and, as you know, he has his issues with breathing without a filter. He- he wouldn't let himself breath properly, he wasn't getting enough oxygen... I didn't want to, I didn't know it was still effecting him this much...
Dick: ...oh
Bruce: Oh. Once he's physically better I'll be sure to speak with him about this, about how to help him, but for now... I need him to breath.

have you ever been thinking of worst ships in Gotham? Canon and not canon. For me personally oswald x zsasz could never happend, love them too much (it's also an open challenge to change my mind hehe). Do you have yours? Who do you think Maggie could never, in a billion years, be together with?
AN: I know you only said Maggie, but I’m on a roll now 😈
Maggie:
Clearly the “friendship” has sailed in many many directions for this girl. But if we’re talking romantic/sexual relationship, there are a few people she wouldn’t work well with.
Got starters, Oswald. Not just for the fact that he’s gay, but I simply don’t think they could ever have anything healthy there. She tolerate Oswald’s Yandre tendencies as a friend, but I don’t think she could handle it if that energy was romantic, let alone sexual. It would get toxic pretty quick.
Edward. Why? Because of the Riddler. For the most part, Maggie has really only interacted with his Ed persona. She’s heard of the Riddler through the others, but they don’t interact much. I don’t think she enjoys that side of him, she thought Ed was perfect and adorable as his little scientist self. In a universe where he never becomes a villain, maybe it could work. But she wouldn’t be able to stomach Riddlers ego and brash comments.
Not the question, but I do think if Ivy and her were introduced in a better way, they could have been a fun couple. I mean they both adore their plants, Maggie is just not willing to sacrifice Gotham for them. (This is also if we just ignore the plot line where Ivy is the same age as Selena because Ew, I’m still mad they did that to us)
Basil, obviously. I mean now we see it has blossomed into a Big Sister, Wise Little Brother sort of thing. But Basil couldn’t give her what she wants, what she needs. At least not without sacrifice on his part and she would NEVER ask that of him. Basil thinks he’s “incapable of love” but he’s just incapable of romantic or sexual love, clearly he has a familial and platonic love style. She’s not opposed to people younger than her, as long as their legal obviously. (For instance since she met Bruce and Selena when they were teens she would never in a million years try to justify anything after they turned 18. That’s just gross, and she was groomed as a kid so she would rather die) Maggie loves too passionately and fiercely while Basil is guarded and distant. It just wouldn’t work for either of them.
Theo Galavan. Oh boy, does she fucking hate him at the very least for how he treated Tabitha. Even if she never had relations with the girl, she still would hate how he treats women. Again, he’s Ego is too big for her to handle. I feel like this would be her snapping point in an alternative time line. She would 100% end up killing him and feeling nothing for it. That’s how insane he would make her with his “women belong in the kitchen attitude.” I’ll also tag on Hugo for the same reasons.
Victor Freeze, he’s devoted to his dead wife and she wouldn’t want to feel like second place in someone’s heart. She deserves more than that.
Two more henouable mentions for things that could have been fun. Fish or Carmine. We all know Maggie has daddy issues. She’s thrown herself at Roman Sionis just to help her friends, she would have pulled a Lisa and shared affections for Carmine. Sure it would start out as a “business” thing, but I feel like she’d enjoy his attention. It would be more on the romantic side of things. But with Fish, yeah, no self control. Maggie would think she’s hot as fuck. And she would have slept with her.
Victor:
As far as Victor and Oswald, I’m afraid you’re right. At least romantically they are not compatible. Don’t get me wrong, Victor CAN be romantic, but not in a way that Oswald deserves. Oswald wouldn’t settle for him. Also it would be inappropriate power dynamic, Oswald is his boss. If there were anything there, it would legit at best be a friends with benefits. Victor would see it as a way to blow off steam and “help” his boss out a little.
V:
I shouldn’t have to say it, but all the adult characters are off limits.
I think Martin is a tad younger than the others, so she wouldn’t do anything there either.
So that really only leaves Bruce. And while they make good friends, I don’t even think Bruce would consider her in that way, like he did Selena. I mean Selena is just a trouble street kid, V is a Zsasz. Alfred is tolerating barley of the friendship, that poor man would have a heart attack if Bruce and V started seeing each other. But also, V isn’t interested in boys. So her and Selena are destined to be together 😂, it’s all she’s got.
But, I also don’t think she would work well with Silver St. Cloud. She’s a rich girl, and Theo’s blood. V would resent her so much.
Basil:
Literally anyone. Oh dear god, don’t let this man date you.
Y/N:
Y/N barely works romantically with her husband 😂
But I guess Harvey. She sees him as like and uncle/father figure. Y/N is a weirdo with questionable morals, but family is important to her. She wouldn’t fuck up the good thing they have.
Again, Theo, she would kill him like first day.
I don’t really think Butch or her could ever be in a healthy relationship of any court. She looks down on him. He wouldn’t trust her, it just wouldn’t work out.
But on the flip side, relationships that could be fun are Alfred or Oswald. I know earlier I said the boss employee things is bad, but Y/N likes bad. She clearly cares deeply for the man, as he, her. If Oswald wasn’t gay, I could see them having something there. While inappropriate it would be fun. But with Alfred, she would be treated like a queen. Man’s love language is acts of service and he’s good at some many things. If she wasn’t a villain, I think Alfred could have fallen head over heels for the woman. She’s strong, confident and beautiful and that’s exactly his type.
