Short descriptions are given at the beginning of each OneShot. Smut! Violence! Abuse! Fluff!
Some characters are from the series Gotham. Most are from SS.
Some of these Shots can be dark and violent. So read at your own risk.~
Info:The Joker and Harley Quinn arrange for a meeting at Fish's own club. Harley meets Penguin for the first time. (Based on the early episodes of Gotham)(I would suggest watching the first one to know the characters)
<<<Authors P.O.V>>>
Fish's club looked magnificent. Although she had closed it for tonight's special occasion it still stood marvellously under the yellow-toned lighting. Red was visible from the leather couches to the detailed wallpaper. Every inch was designed and chosen by Fish herself, each minor detail had been altered from the previous chicken fighting ruins.

The old bar, matched with red lanterned lamps sat at the entrance, immediately attracting customers with fine drinks of wine and spirits. The club was bright but gave off a dark, mysterious vibe. The upstairs balconies were privately for Fish and her henchmen, or for more personal matters.
The main stage at the back of the club also served as entertainment for each night. With dancers or singers entertaining the crowds.
Fish was a woman of fine taste and didn't like the idea of something out of place. She could also see potential in the club, and soon enough she was bringing in profits. From the booze she sold to the business deals she made.
But one day a frail boy by the name of Oswald Cobblepot came in stating he was smart and that he could make her powerful and rich. Of course she took a chance with him and soon enough his words came true, but he was also like a personal butler to her. He did as he was told, from managing the club to accompanying her to negotiations of the sorts. Whatever it was he wanted to go, to learn more about the ways of the crime bosses, and Fish Mooney was a good mentor indeed.
For one day she decided to invite the Clown Prince of Crime, along with his partner, Harley Quinn. Cobblepot was lucky Fish had asked for him to attend. Even though he was just ordered to wipe down the bar. He still found great pleasure in being in the same presence as the infamous Clowns.
"Boy I want that counter clean. Our guests will be arriving shortly." Fish snapped her fingers at him while he used the soaked cloth to rub away any dirt from leftover drinks on the brown wooden countertop.
"Y-Yes Miss Mooney." He stuttered casting his eyes down at the task at hand. He suddenly began to feel his eyes aim towards the door as the sound of a deep, sinister chuckle was heard.
"Fish Mooney!" A voice laughed as a strange looking man appeared. He was average height with bright neon green hair and deathly pale skin. Oswald couldn't help but stare at his unusual features. A woman followed him who also had the pale skin but she had platinum hair with pink and blue highlights.
"Mr.Joker and Miss Quinn. It's a pleasure." Fish said holding a smile as she approached the couple extending her hand as he took it firmly in his hand in a tight shake.
"The pleasures all mine." He grinned flashing his metallic grill.
The Joker glanced over at Cobblepot, eyeing him up and down before snapping his eyes back to the woman before him. "Well should we get down to business?"
"Indeed. Take a seat." She lead the two to a booth in the middle of the room. They both sat down and each exchanged rumours and word from the streets.
Cobblepot began to carefully grab a bottle of fine, red wine from the shelf. He limped over to the group with a cautious smile.
"Can I interest you in some wine?" He asked staring at the clowns.
Now that he was close he noticed the Jokers tattoos. Several were visibly sketched across his face. Some were also visible on his half buttoned down blood red shirt.
"I'm more of a bourbon guy." The green haired man chuckled with the same wide grin plastered on his face.
"I'll take a drop." The woman answered with a grin holding up her glass.
Oswald poured it in halfway as he looked to Mooney. She shook her head and began her conversation with the Joker.
Cobblepot hobbled back to his position behind the bar, despite grinding his teeth at the comment he heard the Joker make about his 'Penguin like' form.
The evening rolled on with more conversations about deals to be had. Although J made a few jokes here and there Fish didn't find them quite amusing. She was more of a 'get down to business' type person.
"I'm going to get another drink." Harley sighed seeing as the conversation was not going to move off the boring topic any time soon. She slipped out from the booth and strutted over to the bar where Cobblepot began to clean out glasses.
"Can I have a shot of vodka and orange please?" She asked with a grin.
He jumped slightly at her interruption but softly nodded his head as he bent down to pick up the already mixed drink. He raised it and began to pour out the liquid.
"N-Not interested in business?" He asked noticing her bored expression at the table.
"I just ain't very easy to entertain that's all." She replied.
"More of the adventurous type?" He asked taking a quick glance at her while he slid the glass over.
"You can say that." She chuckled with a smile.
"I've heard stories of you." He continued as he concentrated back on cleaning the wood.
"Really? All good I hope." She smirked leaning her elbow on the counter.
"Well, that you were a psychiatrist." He explained as the smile on her face slowly faltered.
"I'm not that person anymore." She snapped harshly. She could feel her fists ball at his words.
"I do apologise Miss Quinn that was out of line." He whispered lowering his head to his hands fumbling beneath the counter.
Harley stared at him before speaking again. "It's fine. I like you."
"And why is that?"
"You just seem like you can take a joke." She smiled with soft eyes.
He had to admit, he was slightly shocked by her kind words. He had heard rather violent and twisted rumours of her and the Joker, so this was quite new to him.
"I assure you I can take a lot more than that." He replied copying her gentle tone and soft eyes.
"See you can joke too!" She laughed lifting up her glass.
"Harley stop talking to that guy and come back here." She heard the Joker speak with anger in his tone.
She extended her hand with a bright smile. "It was nice talking to you..."
He took it in his own. "Oswald, Oswald Cobblepot."
"I hope we meet again Mr.Cobblepot." ------------------------------------------- I hope some people here watch Gotham so they know what the characters are like. Penguin might not have been portrayed too well here but I was rushing it slightly.
