Imagine: Being in the van after kidnapping the mayor and being offered to turn on Jerome

***

     Jerome had his left arm above your head leaning on the van wall waiting for Mr. Freeze and Jervis Tetch to bring the mayor and his entourage back to you when van doors suddenly swung open. "Whatever you expect as ransom, I-I will double it," This was the Mayor? How pathetic.

Jerome sucked his teeth as if he was trying to get a missed piece of food from his mouth. Oh my God that was so hot. He looked up at the Mayor and smirked. "I have access to the police pension fund." The mayor pleaded. Jerome turned around pretending to contemplate. "Wow, that could be a lot of money. Tempting, but uh, no thanks!" He turned back around with his trademark grin that looked perfect on him.

You helped Firefly move the mayor to the back of the van while he addressed her. "Bridget isn't it? I can get you a safe passage from the city, money, a new home." " It was people like you that locked me up in Strange's lab and thanks to that, there is no Bridget anymore.

The Mayor turned to Jervis. "I can get you a pardon son, all will be forgiven! Just, stop this lunatic!" Jervis walked up to the mayor, "Lunatic's... a little harsh. I prefer visionary!"

That's when the mayor noticed Oswald Cobblepot. "Oswald! Can't you do something?" He hesitated and looked between me and Jerome. "Afraid not. I am with Mr. Valeska, 100%."

That's when he turned to you and stared like he was trying to send you some message only you could hear. "There must be some part of you that knows this is wrong Y/n!" The mayor said as a last resort. You faked confusion and looked at Jervis then Jerome and then pointed to yourself. "Me?" You asked. "Uh, nope! I'm good, thanks though." You wrapped your arm around Jerome's back and he held your waist tightly and kissed your neck as a thank you.

"Every cop in this city will be looking for us and when they find you, expect no mercy just a hail of bullets!" The mayor yelled at us but it sounded like he was trying to convince himself more. "So serious, that's why your approval ratings are so low. Hey, tell you what. Try threatening me again but this time, try it with a smile!" After he got no response, Jerome said, "No, see this is what's wrong," He turned to Oswald, "Nobody knows how to have fun anymore right?" He looked at Oswald for approval and shook his head in agreement. "But, see our friend down there next to the lovely Y/n, Baghead? He's figured out a way to solve that." Scarecrow stalked over to the random woman handcuffed in the corner while she pleaded for him not to hurt her. He sprayed her with his concoction and she started shaking violently.

     "It's time to give this city the boost it needs, time to stop taking ourselves so seriously. I mean come on Gotham? What d'you have to lose?" He walked over to you and grabbed your hand and continued down the van to the flailing woman. "Except your sanity!" You both looked at each other and burst out laughing. To anyone else, you would've been called insane but who knows, maybe they were right.

The end
