Hi diddle diddle, time for a riddle!

The most intelligent man in the world, Edward Nigma. [This is an independent blog for The Riddler (Batman). I'm completely open for crossover rps. I roleplay as Arkhamverse and Comicverse Riddler as well as any AU's you want.. Face claim: Derren Brown]

“God damn you. Just had to be a hero, didn’t you?”

“I may be a criminal but I still got some fucking morals. I ain’t gonna stand by and watch innocents get hurt, those people never did anything to anyone. There are plenty of corrupt in Gotham, bankers, politicians, lawyers, police, why don’t you use them for your weird little experiments?”

[eddienigma-theriddler]

“On my own? You’re leaving? Because of this? You’re okay with hostages, ransom notes and robbery, but this? This is where you draw the line?!”

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

“I won’t kill people that did nothing to deserve it. I don’t mind scarin’ the shit outta some hostages if the end result is to hurt those that do deserve it, the higher ups. I don’t see what the point in this is, its tedious, there’s gotta be other ways without so much death. I don’t wanna leave you, but I don’t want the blood of innocents on my hands neither.”

[eddienigma-theriddler]

“They’re not going to die! When have I ever killed an innocent man? Answer me that, Rhoda. Don’t you trust I know what I’m doing?”

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

“God damn you. Just had to be a hero, didn’t you?”

“I may be a criminal but I still got some fucking morals. I ain’t gonna stand by and watch innocents get hurt, those people never did anything to anyone. There are plenty of corrupt in Gotham, bankers, politicians, lawyers, police, why don’t you use them for your weird little experiments?”

[eddienigma-theriddler]

“No. This isn’t about him. If they don’t notice, then more people go missing. Then more. The punishment the higher ups will get will depend on how long ti takes them to notice. If the Bat gets involved…Well. I have contingencies in place.”

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

She gives a low huff, she didn’t fully believe him. “There are other ways to punish the higher ups. But if is seriously the route you’re taking then I want no part in it. You’re on your own.”

[eddienigma-theriddler]

“On my own? You’re leaving? Because of this? You’re okay with hostages, ransom notes and robbery, but this? This is where you draw the line?!”

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

“God damn you. Just had to be a hero, didn’t you?”

“I may be a criminal but I still got some fucking morals. I ain’t gonna stand by and watch innocents get hurt, those people never did anything to anyone. There are plenty of corrupt in Gotham, bankers, politicians, lawyers, police, why don’t you use them for your weird little experiments?”

[eddienigma-theriddler]

That last sentence hits him hard. He stands up, towering over her, shouting. “I am not stupid! You dare even suggest that! This was part one! Testing if the powers that be notice that the stupid, ignorant masses they swear to protect are slowly going missing… And now it’s ruined. You ruined it.”

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

“The law enforcement in this town are as corrupt as they come, they don’t give a shit if people go missing or not, even if they did notice. The only person that would care is…” she stops and sighs, “Batman. This is about the Goddamn Batman isn’t it? You don’t care about eradicating stupidity do you? You’re just showing off.”

[eddienigma-theriddler]

“No. This isn’t about him. If they don’t notice, then more people go missing. Then more. The punishment the higher ups will get will depend on how long ti takes them to notice. If the Bat gets involved...Well. I have contingencies in place.”

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

[eddienigma-theriddler]

“Those people were stupid. Far too stupid to be considered innocent. If I didn’t take them, they’d likely walk into traffic or fall victim to a ‘kindly Zimbabwean prince’ online.” He sighs, rubbing his eyes in frustration. “This was bigger than you. You’ve ruined years of work.”

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

“Those people’s stupidity is only a danger to themselves. We should be focusing on the real danger here, stupid people with power, the people that created and maintain a flawed education system. The general public isn’t stupid because they choose to be, they’re victims of a system that breeds stupidity. If we’re gonna solve the worlds idiocy problem then we need to strike at the source. You’ve wasted years of your life and for what? To terrorize random civilians? Maybe you’re the stupid one here.”

[eddienigma-theriddler]

That last sentence hits him hard. He stands up, towering over her, shouting. “I am not stupid! You dare even suggest that! This was part one! Testing if the powers that be notice that the stupid, ignorant masses they swear to protect are slowly going missing... And now it’s ruined. You ruined it.”

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

“What did you do today? Get up to any mischief?” She bites her lip and reaches up to undo the buttons on his vest.

[eddienigma-theriddler]

He smirks, leaning back and allowing her easier access to his buttons. “Of course. What is a complete day without challenging the Bat and his cronies with riddles?”

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

“That’s my clever man,” she grins, pulling him down to kiss him softly but with a lot of promise. She pulls the vest down his shoulders and begins on the buttons of his shirt. “I’ve been thinking about you all day, did you think about me?”

[eddienigma-theriddler]

He kisses her passionately, lustfully as she undresses him. As he finally pulls away, he smirks at the question. “Of course...especially if you’re wearing that underwear...”

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

“Good evening Boss, how’s your day been?” She sits up and flicks her hair, reaching for the second glass of wine and offering it to him. “Have you been working hard?”

[eddienigma-theriddler]

He smirks, take the glass of wine and sipping at it, placing it down and removing his jacket. “Of course, don’t I always?” He says, smirking playfully.

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

She throws her phone onto the bedside table and stretches out comfortably. She reaches for one of the glasses of wine she had poured for the two of them and sips gently, waiting for her boss to appear. She hopes he’ll show up soon, the bed is comfortable and she was tempted by the idea of a quick nap.

[eddienigma-theriddler]

He arrives a few moments later, clad in his usual green attire. Even though he was rushing, he looks impeccable, not a hair out of place. He saunters into the bedroom, leaning on the doorframe. “Good evening, Rhoda…”

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

“Good evening Boss, how’s your day been?” She sits up and flicks her hair, reaching for the second glass of wine and offering it to him. “Have you been working hard?”

[jaded4fox]

Well Suicide Squad has the same problem that Tumblr has with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice: It’s not Marvel

[eddienigma-theriddler]

Edward was positioned in a strategic location, ready to saunter in when Rhoda had taken out most of the guards. He was, currently, on the balcony of the Manager’s office, with a tablet connected to the CCTV system.

“You have a handle on the guard situation, I assume. There are 8 more armed guards, ready to disperse from the doors to the left and right of you. Other than that, no surprises. Whenever you’re ready…”

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

“Don’t worry about it, I got back-up down here. I’ll try and take a few down quietly so the police and the other guards ain’t alerted quite so early on. I ain’t too scared of the weapons, we keep as many of the public in here as possible, they won’t want a shoot out with so many bystanders in the building. Kisses!”

She keeps out of the way, in the shadows and corners, she wouldn’t be noticed at such a busy time. She takes down the first guard, strangling him from behind until he passes out. She pushes him behind a vacant desk and continues to look for more unassuming guards to do similar.

By the time she has three piled up she feels ready to hold the place to ransom, “Lock the doors.”

[eddienigma-theriddler]

Hearing her yell, he takes that as his queue to open the balcony window. He saunters in, instantly shooting a stun gun at the manager and walking past her like it was nothing. He walks down the grand staircase into the Atrium as she's demanding, silent, but grinning smugly

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

Where have you been?! I've been calling you for hours...

“Well its kinda hard to stop an’ chat when I got the cops on my tail. Don’t go gettin’ yer panties in a twist, I’m almost at HQ.” She locates her motorbike and hops on, “I’ll see you in ten minutes alright, I got somethin’ to show you.”

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

She thinks about for a moment, putting her best thinking face on complete with finger to her lips, “Hmmmmm, somewhere warm, where there ain’t so much rain. Florida? OH! Lets go to Disneyworld!” she exclaims, sitting up with a grin.

[eddienigma-theriddler]

“Disneyworld?” He looks at her in disbelief. “Disneyworld? Explain why…”

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

She narrows her eyes, “because its the happiest place on Earth. Duuuh… I wanna go on Space Mountain.”

[eddienigma-theriddler]

"Well" Edward sighs, standing up, his head down. He looks at her, smiling. "I guess I should go and book some tickets then, shouldn't I?"

[terrorxbang-deactivated20231108]

While Edward seemed to prefer the more subtle approach to bank robberies, Rhoda enjoyed a spectacle, she wasn’t about to commit the perfect crime if there wasn’t a screaming audience there to witness it. Which is why she opted to commit this perfect crime in broad daylight, at about two in the afternoon on a Friday.

She had a number of henchmen stationed around the foyer, they were to wait for her word before rounding up hostages. She sashays into the building, her overconfidence almost giving her away.

“Ready to start the show, Ed?” She asks into her hidden communicator.

“A vacation?” He sits on the end of the sofa near her head “You might be onto something there. I mean, Gotham knows who we are, I’m sure 2 weeks away wouldn’t destroy our reputation, would it? Where would we go?”

She thinks about for a moment, putting her best thinking face on complete with finger to her lips, “Hmmmmm, somewhere warm, where there ain’t so much rain. Florida? OH! Lets go to Disneyworld!” she exclaims, sitting up with a grin.

"Disneyworld? I'm sorry, how old are you?" He looks at her with disbelief, trying to hide his enthusiasm for the idea
