Madeline tilted her head, her smile slightly slipping. She had forgotten how childhood was a sensitive topic among most rogues. Madeline was never shy about hers, but the starlight clearly wasn't eager to trade funny childhood memories.
"Oh, I apologise I just wanted to talk about hobbies you might've had growing up." Madeline started, hopping to ease back from her fopa. "Personally, i've always liked baking and reading, you?"
Hopefully a step back would put her good graces and ease the girls suspicion, afterall when one flounders a step closer to the shore is wise.
"Let's talk about our childhoods."
‘let’s talk’ starters || still accepting!
It was a topic she had avoided like the plague for most of her adult life. In interviews with greedy reporters, begging for just a taste of what it must have been like to grow up as her, and in therapy, with greedier psychiatrists desperate to know what it was like to never grow up. What it must have done to her, what must have happened to her, in those few formative years. Now, her upper lip curled.
“And what would you like to talk about?” she asked, raising her eyebrows. “You wanna sit around and talk about how Mommy never gave us enough attention, or how Daddy never connected?” She’d been scrolling idly through her phone and now went back to it, snorted in derision. “I didn’t even go to a real school, if that’s what you were looking to bond over.
Can you imagine Bruce Wayne having the private residences of his various rogues tapped? Like he could log on to one and hear a live audio stream of their actions. Imagine:
Ivy quietly making soft ‘cooing’ noise to the various plants which she keeps in her home to nurture and for her protection. Sometimes Harley can also be picked up but she soon disappears after a few weeks or so.
Joker seemingly being aware that Batman has his home tapped and is happy to hold long provocative conversations in the hope that the Bat is listening at any given moment. Bruce hates it since Joker seems to have a sixth sense about when he is tuned in and uses it to his advantage to get under his skin.
Catwoman being the only other rogue who seems to be aware that Batman is listening to her but she is rarely home (and is intelligent enough to not discuss her business) so she uses it as an opportunity to flirt and give hints as to which expensive gifts she would not mind receiving.
Scarecrow’s line is pretty much silent most of the time since he tends to conduct experiments elsewhere but the occasional hummed lullaby can be heard along with mad cackling and it unsettles Bruce more than he is willing to let on.
Edward Nygma being, by far, the loudest of them all. Between the cacophony of creaking and grinding that his various electronic projects make as he constructs them and his incessant need to hear his own voice and practise riddles it can be very grating. Plus he sings. A lot.
The Mad Hatter seeming to have a habit of holding daily tea parties which are almost unintelligible as Tetch fully descends into the madness which has a great hold of him. Bruce can only hear the story of the Walrus and the Carpenter so many times.
Bruce having to force himself to check the feed assigned to Harvey Dent as there is always a chance that instead of picking up Two-Face barking instructions to his henchmen over the telephone, he may pick up pure silence only broken by the occasional sob of the man whom he was once best friends with.
This is just sad, I don't dislike Amazon but why was this necessary? Why would Amazon even want that? This is just awful and wrong support Ao3 and other sites that DON'T ask such things. Srs wtf
Today, Amazon announced the imminent launch of its newest endeavor, Kindle Worlds, a publishing platform for fanfiction. When I read the announcement, I was horrified, then angry, then sad. I want to take a moment to explain why this is such a tragedy.

"Does he believe he's an animal?"
“Normally I’d say yes. This is Gotham city we have people who believe they’re Gods and this is the best city in the world. In this case, however..... I think no one ever taught him manners. I think he needs a hat.”

*giggles* “ It’s quite alright. I’m just lively! It’s quite rare to see you around Alice.” March said returning her curtsy with a flourished bow. “How are you doing,” the hare questioned.
"Hi, I'm The March Hare!"

‘Who cares for you?’ said Alice (she had grown to her full size by this time). ‘You’re nothing but a pack of cards!’

Alright since Madeline is technically an OC I shouldn't do headcanons for her, so random Batman character!
Killer Croc is immune to most diseases and viruses due to his unique biology and because he spends so much time in the sewer. That's why being down there never bothers him and he isn't afraid of getting dirty.
