(Written for me by an Aide, too busy to bother trying to type) I coulda sworn I had alllll the tracks in Unova memorized, but apparently not. Been following this thing for a few days off and on, still no clue what is… Anyone smarter than me able to identify it? If it helps from one side to the other I can fit my whole hand a few times over? So… Big pokemon whatever it is.

this is MY blog and i’ll choose what i post on it. so i’m gonna talk about my oc giallo for a bit

so giallo maroni is a guy i made up for the batman 2022 universe because it’s fun and i like having a gritty little guy to navigate that universe with. he’d be in his early 40s by the time the events of the batman take place

giallo is, you guessed it, a part of the maroni crime family. his uncle is salvatore maroni (giallo calls him uncle sal) and before the maroni drug bust giallo kind of acted as hired muscle for his uncle. he basically stayed in the room and made sure nobody made any moves to hurt or kill his uncle sal

when giallo was really young he was constantly sick, always looking yellow in the face, and his cousins gave him the nickname “giallo” because of this. (giallo in italian means yellow if you didn’t know this) (originally i chose the name giallo because i liked the ties to italian crime thrillers but came up with a canonical reason why a character would be named “yellow”) giallo has gone by that name so long almost nobody remembers what his birth name was and his parents aren’t around anymore to remind anyone

he might also be a little autistic but if that’s what it is nobody has told him. he doesn’t speak a lot and has a flat affectation and doesn’t really emote and he fidgets a lot with his butterfly knife and never looks anyone in the eye but most of the time people just think it’s because he’s Contemplating Something

giallo is trans and kinda knew he was a guy from a really young age. he would insist to his mom and dad that he was a boy but the weird thing is that they were fine with it HOWEVER his dad insisted that “if you’re gonna be a man you gotta act like one” so he taught him to shoot guns and count money and to pay attention and keep his mouth shut. he didn’t talk much anyways but that’s beside the point. he thinks it’s because his dad didn’t know what he was gonna do with a daughter and having two sons was easier for him

speaking of sons giallo has an older brother named enzo but he got carted off to blackgate when the drug bust happened. they weren’t ever close and enzo is a bit older than giallo is so he wasn’t around a lot when giallo was growing up, but if giallo could ever get over the feeling of guilt he has over being the only one of the maronis to not end up in the clink he’d write him.

the reason why giallo isn’t in blackgate? falcone, mostly. this is a complicated backstory but falcone blackmailed giallo into killing thomas and martha wayne after realizing giallo had been skimming some money off the top of his uncle sal’s deals (mostly just to keep a place he could go for himself that they didn’t know about). falcone also found out giallo had been spending a liiiiittle too much time at the iceberg lounge with oz cobblepot and while the maronis would make deals with falcone they didn’t necessarily like the company he kept (or falcone himself, really). so in order to keep a secret, giallo had to return a favor, and in falcone’s words, “you won’t have to do a thing for me ever again”

well, that was a total lie. falcone moved in on the renewal fund and to get all the money he could locked up most of the maronis to do it. but giallo was his little fall guy, if anyone ever started making connections to the wayne murder giallo would be the first to go (and even tried hooking that connection to bruce wayne’s belt with that schpeal about sal wanting to knock thomas and martha off) and with evidence of him being around competitors? well, he could just say giallo hated his family and wanted all that money to himself, but humble falcone wouldn’t let the greedy bastard near it, right? so long as falcone kept him on his side, under his thumb, he could keep watch and make sure giallo never saw a cent of the maroni share of the renewal fund.

giallo still doesn’t know that’s why he avoided blackgate. in fact, he has a lot of guilt over being the only member of his family not in prison and the mere thought of it eats at him every day. he knows in his gut that every last member of his family must hate him for this seemingly good luck. and as years pass under falcone, his resentment and anger build that he has to work for this man to keep a secret he never wanted part of.

his only solace is that there’s someone who treats him kind of like a human being around. oz and giallo have been acquainted for years, bonding over being the “other guy” in the room whenever falcone and uncle sal made their deals. for a long while, oz was the only one to acknowledge giallo’s presence in the room, and even after time has passed and oz has upped in rank since then he still takes the time to be around giallo, even requesting him to watch the door of his office if some private business needed to be tended to (or even just to have some company during times he’d normally be alone). giallo is kind of a pretty boy and oz takes note of that pretty quickly, and even though oz isn’t much to look at (at least to other people) giallo admires how oz presents himself and always catches himself looking when oz flashes those gold teeth of his. not that either would ever say anything to the other about it, usually the thoughts the two have about each other are in passing and it would never work out they’re much better off staying strictly business but with a little down time on the side. right?

anyways this is what giallo looks like

Written for me again. Sorry the image is so bad, I felt uneasy without proper defence and left pretty quick. This is what I mean by the feet changing. I would say Zoroark but well. Zoroark footprints remain the same in all forms and… Well when they change it doesn’t do THAT to the grass. Does this change anyone’s hypotheses?

In it :) it also has wisps of a smoky substance coming from it sometimes but since Bad-#- Photo all of this is lost hehe))

So anyway, what happened to you?

… It’s kind of embarasing but… Punched a god a few times, may have bitten it. I. Had my resons, so. Uh…

Got throne into the air. Hit a tree. Ow. Ryoku says I have a concushion.

Ah. Great. Phosphene is bored (reasonable) and wants to learn how to hunt. Too bad I’m a fucking pushover when it comes to her specifically, even if the timing is horrible… Ugh. Well, sad to admit I’d appreciate the Not Being Alone While Tracking Whatever The Hell This Is- so as long as she doesn’t end up dying I should be able to avoid being skinned alive (partially metaphorically) by Lord Ghetsis! Haha… (… I would theoretically pay someone else to also tag along- can’t believe I’M being a coward of all people…)
