Ed hated to see you upset and would do anything to make you feel better. So when he walked into your apartment and saw you crying he immediately set out to comfort you and bring your spirits up. He knew you liked to be warm and cozy so he made some tea and got a blanket, draping it around you both. As you sipped your tea he would sit with you, telling you funny riddles to try and bring a smile to your face and make you feel alright again.
Character: Oswald
Oswald was a selfish man. He knew this and he normally didn’t care if someone else was hurt or upset. But you, you were different. He cared a great deal about you so whenever you were wronged or saddened he would move heaven and earth to bring you comfort. He would kill whoever hurt you and bring you proof so you knew you would never be harmed by them again. Then he would make sure your favorite foods were delivered and get you settled into bed to rest after your meal, knowing you would wake up refreshed and feeling much better then the night before.
Character: Barbara
Barbara knew the best way to comfort you was to take your mind off of whatever upset you in the first place. And the best way she knew how to do that was with sex. If that didn’t work well you two could go out on the town, to a club, pick up some random man and then tear him apart just for the fun of it. And if that still didn’t work, well ice cream and Netflix was a surefire bet and the two of you would end up cuddled on the couch for the night until you couldn’t remember what upset you in the first place.
Edward Nygma is a man of fine cuisine. Which is why he would never take you to a restaurant for a date. His idea of a great date is bringing you back to his place, cooking you up a fine meal and having you compliment everything several times (he’s a bit of a diva who needs validation) and then afterwards going out to see an obscure museum exhibition or art show. He tries to impress you with his knowledge and throwing in riddles here and there to test your knowledge. You prove to him over and over that you are his intellectual equal and he loves you for that.
Character: Oswald
Oswald likes to show off to you that he is rich. It’s the only reason he thinks you even like him at all although you have told him several times that that is not true. The two of you normally start an evening with a nice dinner in an upscale restaurant, lobster, steak, and caviar with the nicest wine in the house, followed by a show or opera in a balcony, and then you finish the night back at the house with dessert. He is all about showing off when he gives gifts to you also. You would wake up some mornings to find a pair of earrings or a necklace on the nightstand by the bed, maybe a new suit or dress for an evening out, always the finest clothiers and designers. He is a generous lover and you enjoy it almost as much as you enjoy him being himself in the small hours of the morning when he wakes up from a nightmare and holds you closer, kissing you gently on the head and murmuring that he loves you, letting down a wall he normally has up for everyone.
Barbara is a fun girl, always coming up with adventure date to take you on. Sometimes you guys go out and find a couple guys to tease, seducing them before going back to each other and leaving them hanging. Sometimes they like to try and get you two anyways but, well, that never works out well with them and seeing your girlfriend break a man’s leg in three places is such a turn on that it sometimes leads to the two of you skipping the rest of the date just to have sex in the back alley behind the bar. When your dates are homebound she comes up with scavenger hunts for toys around the apartment and the two of you have fun finding and playing together.
Jerome Valeska is the most spontaneous person you’ve ever met and it makes your date nights so exciting. Sometimes the date starts in the early morning, him waking you up to go see the sunrise and rob a coffee shop of both food and scones before spending the day just wandering Gotham and looking for trouble to cause. Other times the date started at 10pm with him waking you up to go out and find a penthouse apartment, killing whoever was inside and commandeering it for the night to play out your fantasies of getting married and having a lavish honeymoon, which he promises over and over to give you one day. When you’re just at home he will surprise you with dinner or breakfast, maybe even a ring he stole from someone’s finger or something else he got from a job, always trying to make you smile.

Every day when he gets home from work he puts away the cop and becomes a superhero, flying the kids around on his shoulders or playing with dolls on the floor, anything to make them laugh and smile.

He drank too much, enjoyed going out too much, liked hookers too much, but when he was thrust into fatherhood because of the mother’s death he took to it naturally. He was wonderful to his daughter, getting her anything she needed and as much as she wanted that he could provide. He always made sure she went to school, had good grades, throwing in fun activities to make sure she enjoyed life to the fullest. If there was anything he was going to teach that little girl it was that life was short and you should do as much as could while you were alive.
Character: Barbara
Barbara was a tough love sort of mother. She was honest and didn’t sugar coat anything, she knew being in this world was anything but love and cuddles and she wasn’t going to let her child grow up to be fooled by anyone.

There was never a love more true or fierce than the love Barbara had for her child.
