Summary:
Using the time in which the bed is unoccupied due to Oswald being in the shower, Ed decides to change the bedding. But then he discovers a fresh bloodstain on Oswald's side of the bed. Panic ensues.
for this fic I'm imagining that Oswald stayed at Ed's flat way longer than he did canonically, long enough to properly recover and heal (both physically and emotionally).
He's not on testosterone (or not regularly) but due to and malnutrition, stress and ongoing health issues he rarely ever gets his period so then when he's being so well taken care of it sneaks up on him.
This is the first gotham fic I started writing right after rewatching 2x09 and 2x10. and yet it's the third gotham fic I'm posting xD

Summary:
Jim has voiced his boundaries around physical affection at work.
At first, Ed struggles to understand, so they have a conversation about it where Jim explains his reasons. And after having the reassurance that Jim isn't ashamed to be with him and that it's not because he’s a man, Ed is satisfied to respect Jim’s boundaries.
Ed does, however, take those “rules” very seriously, which does at times lead him into predicaments. This is one of those times.
First entry for @gothambingo!!! for the prompt injury >:3
some thoughts as well as the bingo card with marked off fields is under the cut
also the screenshot in the banner is from 1x07 (penguin's umbrella) which interestingly is also a field on my bingo card xD
@redrose-alice I finished another fic!! :D
This whole fic came about because it really frustrated me how in 1x16 (I think) when Jim voices his discomfort with Lee being affectionate with him at work and Lee ignores it even though he asks her repeatedly. It just gets treated as this silly, stupid thing by the narrative, like it's something he just needs to get over.
so yeah, fixed it and made it gay xD
I imagine Jim's reasons to be something like a need for privacy about his personal life and a shyness around physical affection that partially comes from the internalised need to keep up the strong man facade. doesn't mean that those aren't things for him to work on over time but he at least deserves to have his feelings validated. (to be clear this isn't a dig at Lee, I think this is a narrative/writing problem).
and what I’m very heavily leaning into with this fic is the autism thing where it can be difficult to understand rules/social conventions and when they’re allowed to be broken and in what ways and by whom.
And because I wanted to be extra self-indulgent, I specifically wanted Ed to be able to ask when it becomes unclear to him. I wanted them to have a conversation about it where Ed doesn't get ridiculed or brushed off and can actually ask his questions to try to understand.
*bangs open the lid of my dusty coffin*
look! I have created something!!!
