//OOC: Hey! I know I don’t own the concept of OIG blogs and it’s been around before GUG, and it’s really cool that people outside of this AU have been inspired by it! However, when people are like actively stealing our plot points for their blogs then it’s a little disheartening. Especially when we’re looking at being more active.

How do Bud and Lou handle Selina and her cats?

Oh, they all got along! Bud and Lou are just oversized puppies if they like you enough! Babies think they’re lap dogs! They’ve never had a problem with Selina’s cats. I trained them well!

[h-arleen-q-uinzel]

Are you a fan of glitter?

A l w a y s ! I mean, who isn’t?

[h-arleen-q-uinzel]

Should I let Bud and Lou act like lap dogs? Probably not. Am I going to anyways? Absolutely.

[gothamgreenhouse]

I’d bother correcting them but whenever I start do they give me the adorable eyes and that cute little whimper and I can’t help but let them remain in my lap. If I didn’t know any better I’d swear they know how cuddly they are and will use it to their advantage. 

[h-arleen-q-uinzel]

They can’t help that they’re the cutest pair ever! Well, second cutest! After you and Selina

[gothamgreenhouse]

Ma’am it is ILLEGAL to make me blush!

[h-arleen-q-uinzel]

Wouldn’t be the first time I’ve broken the law!!

Hey, I just saw your post about your shelter and I was wondering if you could help me out a bit? I'm hoping to be able to use my flower shop to be able to help especially the teens on the streets by providing jobs or even just a warm place to hang out during the winter. Could we meet up and talk sometime? -Dinah

Of course!!! That sounds great! I’d love to help!

[h-arleen-q-uinzel]

I know some people have been wondering where I’ve been, but I’ve actually been working on a passion project of mine. The Lucy Quinzel Shelter; a safe place for anyone and everyone that needs it. Food, drinks, shelter, and anything else needed will be provided. The shelter is funded by donations from the public - though no donations will be accepted by the Wayne Foundation. After all the harm I’ve done, I’m really hoping to finally cause some good.

//OOC: Hey! I figured y’all deserved an update. You’ve probably noticed I’ve been posting a lot less stuff recently - mostly just asks and character interactions. I haven’t been doing a lot of the ‘Only In Gotham’ style stuff anymore - which I promise I will get back to! Essentially: I’m not doing too good mentally rn. My brain’s being an asshole and I’m really just...drained.

I’m very bad at self-care but I’m trying to put myself first. So for that reason, I’m going on a semi-hiatus. I don’t know how long it’ll last or when I’ll be posting but I will try to keep posting original stuff! Like how I’ll try and post some stuff for Jason’s birthday! GUG is currently going through what has been dubbed ‘angst August’ which is fine! Everyone’s being really creative with it! But I can’t mentally cope with that rn. As such, none of my blogs ( @h-arleen-q-uinzel , @demonic-bodyguard , @not-so-local-exorcist , @starfish-in-a-jar @all-arrows-point-to-home @tiff-the-tumbler @magic-in-wonderland ) will be overly active. Or anything I do post probably won’t be in direct relation to any other character events. I’ll probably post something saying what everyone was up to at the end of the month to try and make up for it!

I will be back! I’m not sure when but I will be! Thank you all so much for following me and I hope you all understand 💜💙💜💙

I feel like I don't have an actual choice in this decision. I don't think my choice actually matters.

They do! Of course, they do! It’s your life. And sometimes things may be out of your control but you do have a choice.

[h-arleen-q-uinzel]

i've been really angry lately? i'm usually such a people pleaser and i have an overwhelming urge for everyone to like me All The Time. but lately, i've just been really mad, and i've started lashing out. i leave the house without telling anyone where i'm going. i work for long hours out of spite. i feel like everyone wants something from me. how do i stop? i want to help people, but i don't know how when my only options are incredibly angry or burnout.

It’s great that you want to please and help people! But it’s important to put yourself first too. You’re just as important as the people around! Hitting burnout is horrible but so is being angry all the time. Find someone close to you that you can trust and try taking to them about things.

Hi. Fellow villain needing advice. So. Lately my partner in crime has decided to go legit. Give back to the community, help people. And one of my colleagues decided to do the same as well. It's got me thinking...I mean, I do crime for the right reasons, dont get me wrong, but should I? What if I took off this burden and tried to live a normal life? Could I? Should I even? If I stop who's going to stop these groups taking advantage of things. What would I even do without this.

Crime in Gotham is...complicated. I don’t entirely condone it but I don’t entirely hate it either? The city itself is a mess. What I suggest? Talking to your partner about it. Really thinking things through. Whilst being an...activist of sorts does help, there are other ways to help too. I don’t think I’m the one who can tell you what you can and can’t do. Only you can decide that.
