Late Night

“You’re the last person I wanted to see right now.”

"I'm so very sorry to disappoint you Shaw sir, but I must give you tragic news of your chauffeur!

You see he was driving here as it were,

when Magneto came and caused quite a stir. He grabbed the car and well,

to put it lightly, an accident did occur. "

The hare gave Shaw a sympathetic look, knowing full well he was more annoyed then any thing.

"I felt it was only right to tell you so you didn't think ill of him, when his fate was already so grim."

Gotham Slang

Okay, so I’ve recently realized that us Gothamites have developed the world’s most bizarre vernacular and literally no one outside the city can understand half the stuff we say. As such, in an attempt to be helpful I’ve put together a few examples with translations and sometimes origins:

Riddle me this (do I need to explain this? when you want someone to explain something)

Flip a coin (not used the way other people use it - it serves as more of a abstract threat about getting mad eg. “Don’t make me flip a coin!”)

Pull a Harley (fall in love way too deeply way too quickly)

More [something] than scars (when there is a large amount of [something] - because have you ever looked at Zsasz?)

Like finding Alice (used when something’s hard to find - it’s the equivalent of the saying “Like finding a needle in a haystack”)

Get umbrella-ed (get murdered, usually specifically mob-related; named for that infamous incident when Penguin killed a dude with an umbrella)

Day 5 Team up

Notes: Sorry this is late! Team up with Tetch and I have NEVER written for Music Meister before so be gentle!

“Think of it Tetch, with my beautiful voice and your mind control it'll be fantastic!” Meister grinned. “Batman won't stand a chance!”

Meister was an interesting sort, singing, prancing and seducing about. However his idea was odd. Well combining mind control was curious the plan was -

extravagant.

“The thoughts nice Mr.Meister but the idea is weird .” Tetch said carefully, not wanting to upset him.

“What! Jerv this is fantastic! How can you possibly question it, Alice is involved!

A yes, if Alice is involved of course Tetch will leap into the fire. Obviously.

“But don't you think a musical Wonderland is a bit uhm big?”

“WHAT! Nonsense she'd love it! Haven't you ever thought of how beautiful and melodies the poems are in the book?”

“Name one.” Jervis stated, flatly in truth he wanted to work with Music Meister BUT he had to be sure they understood one another.

“Well theirs the Jabberwocky and uhm the one about Alice.”

Jervis knew it he hadn't even read the book just saw the movie or play. At least Meister was trying and as Jervis had already reapted to himself, had a good idea. Standing slowly tetch headed towards the door, quickly Meister attempted to seduce him back into the plan.

“Listen Tetch I'm determined to make our plan a success that's why I need you. It'll be gre-” Meisters words caught in his throat when I book was shoved towards his face.

“Read this, I also put some nice poems that I think you might be interested in this bag.” Jervis stated thrusting the bag in the dumbstruck Music Meisters hands.

“Wait so you'll do it?” Meister finally said grinning.”

“Of course”, Tetch said “but while we work you MUST read the book AND the poetry.”

“Deal.”

BTW if you have any kind of references for Madeleine, I'd like to draw her for you! I'm trying to draw friends OCs for them and I think you qualify as a Tumblr pal!

Aaaaaaaaaa GIVE ME YOUR PAYPAL INFO FIRST AND AAAAAAAAAA YOU ARE AMAZING ❤️!

Hares head shot up at the unfamiliar voice. Quickly she untied the apron from her waist and quickly scrubbed her hands. Tetch having guests over without notifying her was unheard of, he always wanted her to make some kind snack for his guests. Additionally she had never heard that voice before. Grabbing her Kama, she stepped into living room.

"Hello?"

@themarchinghare

“Jervis? Are you here?” Music Meister poked his head through the doorway, looking around before stepping into the Hatter’s latest hideout. Between composing and organising his next ‘performance’, the maestro had grown bored and decided to visit his acquaintance. However he didn’t seem to be around at present.

schizo-wonderland

in schizophrinic symptoms people may experience….

Behavioral: social isolation, disorganized behavior, aggression, agitation, compulsive behavior, excitability, hostility, repetitive movements, self-harm, or lack of restraint

/he dropped the axe. Picking up the empty tea cup to bring it to his chapped lips. drinking out of a tick, not actual want. bloodied gloves smeared the crimsion fluied over the chipping, baby blue, tea cup.

“drink your tea alice…its rude to waste…” he said through a crazed grin. the people at his table slumped over and lifeless. alice in her blue blood stained dress… her head on the floor/

Cognitive: thought disorder, delusion, amnesia, belief that an ordinary event has special and personal meaning, belief that thoughts aren't one's own, disorientation, memory loss, mental confusion, slowness in activity, or false belief of superiority'

/his smile was one of insanity. the grin showing every one in group therapy that jervis was now the hatter. no longer in arkham, but in his own wonderland./

Mood: anger, anxiety, apathy, feeling detached from self, general discontent, loss of interest or pleasure in activities, elevated mood, or inappropriate emotional response

/“NO NO! its ALL WRONG!” the small man yelled. scaring the tightly bound, masked, hostages. “your supposed to say, yes sir! its so very very rude alice! wehave been over this over and over!” he steps closer towrared the shaking blond headed girl. “thats it…tea party over… your ruined it ….” he muttered. pushing the knife into “alice’s” throat so he could paint the roses red/

Psychological: hallucination, paranoia, hearing voices, depression, fear, persecutory delusion, or religious delusion Speech: circumstantial speech, incoherent speech, rapid and frenzied speaking, or speech disorder

/“Beware the Jabberwock, my son! The jaws that bite, the claws that catch! Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun The frumious Bandersnatch!” he whispered. clawing at his hair, pulling chunks of blond hair out. “He took his vorpal sword in hand” he muttered, taking a small razor into his shaking hand. “One, two! One, two! And through and through The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!He left it dead, and with its head He went galumphing back” he cut into his wrists. his blood pouring out onto the cold floor. that shaky smile softened as he paled. the world growing cold… “And hast thou slain the Jabberwock? C…come to m..my arms, my b..eamish boy! O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!” darkness took over his sickened mind/

Jervis Tetch Week // Day 1 // “Personal Design”

I'm sorry for just barging in, but you know what I think would be cool? Electrical engineer/ construction worker Catwoman. It would explain how she knows buildings so well and the security involved and it adds a few more layers to her character. (Sense we never really see her work) This random headcanon/idea just popped into my mind and I thought I would share thank you and have a frabjous day/night!

the very first thought i had when i read this was injustice catwoman, which is one of my absolute favorite outfit designs for her that adds an enormous amount of personality to her suit that’s never there in the bland latex cat suits and pure acrobatics she usually gets:

and i think it would be a very, very good addition to her character to have a career like that and building her cat burglary get-up off of the skills she has through that, designing her own suit with functional equipment to help her get around, re-purposing things she already uses and knows how to handle well along with what might be her hobbies which probably include a lot of gymnastics and fighting skills to add onto that.

it would also give her a reason to know a lot of the same knowledge as other tech savvy rogues along WITH her excellent banter and people management skills (at least, that’s how i see her), which would put her pretty high up on the threatening powerhouse rogue list if she wanted to be up there. i would love a catwoman like this as part of the sirens! 

Madeline had grown quite accustomed to her eccentric customer. To be honest she began to eagerly await his next order, although Madeline had no idea why he needed so many and diverse pastries. “Madeline. Madeline Daresbury, and don’t fret about it. You may not arrive on time, but you do pay on time.“ She smiled. He was by far one of the nicest customers she had, so being patient was no real issue. Quickly, she placed the money in the register and placed the rest in the tip jar. After putting it all away she looked up to see him eyeing her expectantly. “Oh right!” She remembered. “Yes, I’d be quite happy to attend! Should I dress up?”

Perhaps now she might know why he needed so many desserts. @wonderlandofone
