I Might Be Insane

The small child tugged on the older man's pants to get his attention. He held his arms up and did grabby hands at him. "Uncle Eddie."

"Hey, Carter," he said, reaching down and picking the child up. "How are you doing, buddy?"

"Because you’re not going on it?" Riddler asked.

"Exactly." William said.

Riddler nodded. "Okay." he said. "If that's really are there is to it, I'm going to go." he said, gesturing towards the door. He was really hoping that there was some juicy gossip to be heard.

"I'm a superhero." Alice said, smiling at the other. "Really."

Dexter cocked his head to the side. “So, like, is that why you have the weird suit thing? Do you not actually have powers or something?”

"Well, that’s probably good." Dexter laughed. "So, your power isn’t blowing stuff up, then?"

"To a degree, it is, but I don’t want to unintentionally blow something up." She said.

"Right, gotcha." he nodded seriously. "All I do is run. Like, really fast."

"I'm a superhero." Dexter announced to Clown Girl, putting his hands on his hips in a mock-Superman pose. "And you need to stop committing crimes." ((that sucked))

"And what are you going to do, hm? Is your super power poor fashion taste? Is your outfit gonna blind me?" Ace asked.

"Hey, come on, give me some credit! I made this myself." Dexter looked down at the patchwork mix of orange, red, and yellow fabric. All the scraps were leftovers from his dad’s wrecked costumes. He’d learned from experience that regular clothes don’t stay on well at 500 miles per hour.

"Oh dear, that makes it better?" Ace asked, looking it over.

"Well, I obviously didn't pass home ec with flying colors, babe." He tugged on the fabric.

△ For William from Riddler: Who is your father?

Send me a △ and ask a really invasive question aimed at my character

Rating of how much he doesn’t want to answer that question: 10

"I-it’s Jonathan Crane, boss."

Edward sighed. He’d actually been suspecting that for a while now. “Great. So, you didn’t think to tell me this?” he asked. He wasn’t so much mad at William as he was mad that he didn’t know that Jon was his father.

"We’re not really close so I hadn’t thought of it." William said.

William did have a point. Even still, he was now aware that he was working with the spawn of two of Gotham's most dangerous and psychotic criminals. He'd heard rumors from his men that William was nuts sometimes, but he'd ignored them. Perhaps there was some truth in the rumors. "You're right, we're not close." he replied. "However, I'm going to be a lot closer to you now. As rude as it might seem, surely you'd understand if I began keeping a closer watch on you now that I know your lineage?"

Hades and Persephone, 2015

valiantparadox-deactivated20191

Hades has always been one of the chillest of the Greco-Roman gods and my all-time favorite, but of course his most famous myth is the unfortunate ‘Rape of Persephone’. I thought this was quite uncharacteristic, seeing that in all his other myths he’s really cool about a lot of shit, so I asked one of my professors about it and she laid down some knowledge. Beginning with the name, rape was actually a poor translation of the latin verb rapére (to snatch or to take) meaning that the myth is actually ‘the snatching of persephone’. Still pretty bad but it gets a bit better. Between falling madly in love with Persephone and abducting her, Hades went to her father, Zeus, and asked to marry her. Since women didn’t count in ancient Greece, Persephone and her mother, Demeter, didn’t have any say in this and Zeus was probably like “oh wow I forgot I had that daughter but yeah sure bro go for it” and so Hades did. Similar to the way Greek grooms picked up their brides, Hades shows up literally out of the earth and says “hey babe I’m your husband now let’s go to my house.” I’m not saying this is good I mean it’s still really fucked up but I hope it explains some things.

Further on, Hades is still pretty chill husband (for antiquity). I mean even though he’s besotted with her, he lets Persephone go home for nearly half a year and I can see them being a pretty great arranged marriage. This has been a psa.

Also, according to several myths, Hades went out of his way to have plants brought down just for her. He bent over backwards and twisted sideways to make her happy. Even promising her equal say in everything that happened in the underworld (which is a Big Freakin’ Deal in ancient Greece).

Some myths even say that Persephone intentionally made Hades give her all sorts of rights a woman normally wouldn’t have. He may have been the ‘Crooked One’, but she was known as the ‘Iron Queen’- girl was a goddess of the Underworld just as much as Springtime by the time she was done with Hades. (Also known as the goddess of ‘Duality in some cases.) It was forbidden to call on Persephone because she was one lady you did not want to cross.

And they were the couple that cheated the least. Like, in the old myths, there were /maybe/ five myths of cheating? Which says a whole hell of a lot when compared to Zeus, or Poseidon. ( Probably the only god that cheated less than those two was Hera.)

This is a very good symbol of their personalities.

Chilton is stiff, uncomfortable, attempting to be regal but altogether out of place.

Hannibal manages to be composed, relaxed, still in charge, and threatening.
