DIFFERENTLY SANE

[goregrin]

it's hard to describe what OVERCOMES you when he steps into a room-- it must be like when a RAT gets dropped into a SNAKES cage. the confusion of actually UNDERSTANDING ones place in the universe.

▼▼ mobile rules undercut ▼▼

Without needing to be said, please adhere to basic roleplay etiquette. I won't tolerate racism, sexism, transphobia. Don't godmod, don't steal anything from me. So on and so forth.

I don't personally participate in reblog karma. You can reblog any prompts or aesthetics from me. I understand that not all prompts work for all dynamics, but I encourage sending something in when you can! But I will follow any rule you might have for reblogging.

The joker is an incredibly dangerous and violent antagonist. While in most medias, he kills completely indiscriminately and sometimes for no real reason, I obviously have to tweak things a bit for the sake of roleplaying. I will never hurt your muse without permission but if your muse continuously pesters him but in the same breath, mun doesn't want any consequences, I will drop the thread.

I do not follow any specific version or storyline of joker, I pick and choose things I like from various different media. This joker is all my own. I do not have a set backstory to him and don't plan on ever making one, as a concept I love for the joker is that no one knows who he was before. He was never red hood and jack napier is just another alias.

I typically place him in the batman (2020) but he is not stuck within that specific cinematic version as I plan on editing things when The Batman 2 comes out, nor is he chronologically locked.

I enjoy writing him in a more 'realistic' take, although there will always be unrealism involved. It's impossible to cut out completely because of the media he comes from.

I absolutely love putting the joker in different universes. I would be more than happy to incorporate him into other crime-centric medias.

Regardless of if they know each other in canon or if it's a crossover, my joker is to be assumed an internationally infamous serial mass murderer. It's perfectly fine if your muse recognizes who he is.

I am technically multiship but my mainship is with jonathan crane @arkhampsych. Jay is incredibly difficult to ship with, he is violent and unstable. I am open to shipping but do not expect your muse to be the exception. No ship with Jay will be healthy.

With that being said, I do not auto-ship with anyone, including harley quinn. I am going to assume they are broken up. I am okay with instantly acknowledging their past together as they heavily influence each other’s storylines but please do not write a shippy starter with jay unless discussed to make sure we are on the right page about the dynamic of their relationship.

Do not follow me if you can’t handle unpleasant in-character interactions. The joker is not nice. He is one of the most ruthless dc villains there is and he will make jokes at your muses expense- at their biggest insecurities, at their trauma, at everything he can. It is never directed at the mun, do not take anything he says or does personally. I don’t want to censor him so if you don’t like this, please don’t follow me.

we can never go back again.

we have no secrets now from one another.

boredom is a pleasing antidote to fear.

i have lost my diffidence, my timidity, my shyness with strangers.

what do they think i come here for?

isn’t [name] adorable?

you’re a capable child in many ways.

don’t sulk.

forgive me. i was very rude this afternoon.

please don’t be polite.

i should have asked you.

haven’t you any family?

you have a very lovely and unusual name.

my father was a very lovely and unusual man.

i’ve enjoyed this hour with you more than i’ve enjoyed anything in a very long time.

we’ve got a bond in common, you and i: we are both alone in the world.

an empty house can be as lonely as a full hotel.

what are you thinking about?

has something annoyed you?

you’re too young and too soft.

have you been here before?

that was an unforgivable thing for me to do.

what have you been up to this morning?

if only there could be an invention that bottled up a memory like scent, and it never faded and it never got stale.

i’d like to keep this moment and never forget it.

stop biting those nails. they’re ugly enough already.

you know everything there is to know about me.

i know nothing more about you than i did the day we met.

all memories are bitter, and i prefer to ignore them.

you have blotted out the past for me, you know.

an uncontrollable giggle bubbled up from the clown's lungs, clawed through his throat; each 'HA' might as well been a knife plunged deep within edward's overly inflated ego. jay cradled his stomach at the amusement, his blood-soaked boots making a half-circle around the other's body.

"doooown, down, down. doooown, down, down~" jay sang, mimicking the absolute classic just lose it by eminem. "guess who's back! back again! jay is back! tell a friend!" joker flopped himself right over in the snow besides the green bean, flailing his arms in legs to make a snow angel of sorts. the snow flew everywhere, but especially at his acquaintance who had just wiped his face clean of the very same thing. "oh, who am i kidding! you ain't got any friends~"

(i love randomly coming back to this blog bc jay is always in my brain)

[goregrin]

(Something I like to write about is how Jay's poor mental health affects him in ways other than his lack of self control, violence and inability to feel sympathy. Such as, he simply can't keep up with the mundane tasks of day to day life. If someone visits his living space, if you can call it that bc he tends to just sleep wherever, but he does "have an apartment" in the narrows of Gotham.

Obviously, he doesn't pay for it, he just has a key and the landlord isn't going to say a damn thing for obvious reasons. But you know Jay has never swept a day in his life, like he's dirty tbh. He can't cook and he struggles to throw things away. My Joker has tons of newspapers about batman and about himself that he just has piled in his home. He's good at causing all sorts of chaos, but man is he bad at being a person.)

His eyes rolled. Finding something remotely nice to say about Harley was like finding a straw of hay in a pile of needles. "... I gotta say, you've somehow weaseled your way out of me killing you more than once. That's something to wear as a badge of honor!" It was impressive as it was annoying. It made him mad, and yet, he ended up relieved that their cat and mouse game wasn't quite over yet. "You also have a nice pair of tits."

>> ❝ i don't give a FUCK! what if they EAT ME?! ❞ he spat. ❝ huh??? then WHAT are you gonna do? you NEED me! they DON'T! they're smelling me and looking at me hungrily every damn time. you could've just NOT taken them with you on this mission maybe???? y'know...???? like a SANE person???? ❞

oswald rolled the window down and threw the hot cocoa out and onto the street. it hit some random person before he took off his jacket in an attempt at getting an idea of just how bad the stain was. ❝ in fact, it will. but first, do something about those hyenas! i won't have them sniffling me all day, i can promise you that! ❞

[goregrin]

"I?? Need you??" The words were repeated back to Oswald, sounding incredulous and ridiculous. It started as a little giggle from the clown's throat, but it soon boiled over into howling laughter. Loud, shrieking laughter that would normally strike anyone with complete terror. He was in absolute hysterics at the thought that The Joker, THE CLOWN PRINCE OF CRIME, needed anyone other than himself. He almost needed to pull the damn car over with how hard he was laughing, it gave him a painful stitch in his side that he grabbed at but even the ache wasn't enough to make him stop. He just had to settle himself down naturally. "Oh- oh, fuck, you're too funny!" Mr J was out of breath and coughing slightly by the time he stopped.

Deep breaths, deep breaths.

"... Mm. Yeah, I definitely need ya, buddy." He wiped the flat of his palm under his eye, smearing tears into grease paint. "Sorry, but the pups stay with Daddy. Last time I tried to get someone to pet-sit, they ate him, and it was a fucking mess to clean up." Jay adjusted his rearview mirror, using it to check back on them. He smiled fondly, like someone would towards their baby. "They ain't gonna hurt you, Ozzie. I promise! Don't ya trust me? I thought we were pals."

[goregrin]

(The thing is, Jay knows he's ugly. Like he is absolutely covered in severe chemical burn scarring and cut his own face up. But it kinda... works for him?? It adds to his very weird charm.)
