If I Die Blame The Bat

GU student Currently alive (I have a death post I reschedule so you’ll know) He/him

[drisleythorn]

Hello hello

I am Isley, (and will eventually be Dr. Thorn, after I get a doctorate), I’m a student at Gotham University studying genetics. I’ve lived here for like ten years, but my roommate just got here last month. Remaking my account because my last one got used in the tumblr riddle so I lost access to it (I now have better security) (I hope).

Go Nighthawks!

OOC, hi!

Basically the world rules/timeline I’m using are the general current timeline with Damian as Robin. I’m not really keeping up with the comics, and probably won’t reference any specific dc or batman plot arcs, but more of a general day to day of a gotham college student. Isley (my character) has no idea that batman is bruce wayne or anything like that

I’m roleplaying moreso the tumblr posts of a gothamite than rp in a traditional sense with like *action in asterisk*, so that’s the type of interaction I’d prefer. Like rather than our characters being in a place together, it would be like they are tumblr mutuals or tumblr enemies or smth. UPDATE: if you want to roleplay in that style find me at @isleyrp

If you have any OOC questions, I’ll answer under a cut like this

Also I’m in Pacific Standard Time, so whatever hour it is there is the “cannon” time Isley is posting in gotham

Any rp events won’t be cannon for my character, but in event I will rp like I am there rather than like I am on tumblr posting

For reference, this is the fear gas variation terminology I’m using (I made it up)

(It doesn’t come up a lot and I try to explain it in the tags or elsewise when it does, but just in case its still confusing)

it’s cool that gotham has given all their sports teams the same name. in october you can say “did you see the knights game” and you just have to guess which sport they’re asking about

Tell me why my roommate who’s never home comes home this morning to pester me about how I’ve been lately, which I visibly react to, which makes both of them gang up on me, and now I have to tell them about last night

[drisleythorn]

Half a dozen Joker goons chased me through Crime Alley and straight into three Riddler goons (the ones with the big blunt force weapons) and a subsequent trap that left me hanging upside down in an alleyway.

Honestly? I’ve been in worse positions but this was pretty embarrassing. Even worse, the most gorgeous man alive (five guesses which resident of Crime Alley this was) rounds the corner in his full armor and saves me for the third time in like four months

I have to be gaining some kind of damsel in distress reputation atp

[drisleythorn]

Fuck the Joker and fuck the Riddler too

Both of them come into my workplace at four fucking am, right? Both. Nothing but disrespect to my (highly esteemed) boss.

Eventually I’m handing something to them, and both have something snarky to say, and I guess Robin fucking possessed me, because I say back “Looks like your boyfriend’s ghosting you again.”

And both (very defensively) yell “Batman is not ghosting me!!!”

I’m so fucked

[drisleythorn]

“When will you be home again 🥺” my roommate cries before I remind him that technically this isn’t even my busy season

NEVER TOUCH STRANGE THINGS AT WORK WITHOUT GLOVES

[drisleythorn]

Fell asleep at work and woke up to a blanket around me and a pillow under my head???

Update on my roommate who works for the mob:

He still doesn’t know

Me and Jason (roommate two) have an ongoing betting pool on how long it will take him to realize it on his own (I have been outlawed from trying to tell him again (not that it was working))

[drisleythorn]

I’m sorry? For serving too much cunt, being too correct, and pulling too many bitches?

[drisleythorn]

I’m killing at least one of my coworkers.

My legal name is actually Isley Thorn if anyone’s wondering. Idk if this was only a my universe thing, or how long yall have been on tumblr, but the Riddler used to have this bit where you had to solve his riddle or get doxxed (Batman broke up with him or whatever) so it became a thing to just make your url your actual name

My roommate’s celebrity crush is Clark Kent, the Daily Planet photographer

[drisleythorn]

Clark Kent PLEASE save from from his current crush the Riddler

[drisleythorn]

Crumpled up the third Riddler love note (I can only assume I’m not deciphering that shit) meant for my roommate to find my name written directly beneath it
