Ask/Dare Bruce, Jeremiah, Edward, Oswald, 514A, & Jerome - Gotham *OPEN* + MS

Mini Skit #14 (ft. Selina Kyle, Ecco, & everyone else)

Bruce: I'm bisexual.

Everyone else (both inside and outside of Gotham) except Jerome, Jeremiah, their respective cults and probably Ecco: We love and support you as a person regardless. 

Jeremiah, Jerome, Ecco, The Cult of Jerome, & The Church of Jeremiah: *triggered* 

Bruce: *notices that they are triggered and smirks; pulls both Selina and 514A closer to him* 

Selina and 514A: ?

Bruce: *kisses them both on the cheek*

Selina and 514A: *both blush furiously*

Jeremiah, Jerome, Ecco, The Cult of Jerome, & The Church of Jeremiah: *triggered further*

Jerome: You fuckin' bitch!!! You did that on purpose!!!

Ecco: How dare you?! My puddin' is the sweetest and greatest man alive!!! And he would have treated you like a king, better than a clone and that cat slut!!! 

Jerome: Yeah!!! 

Jeremiah: *is so angry that he tries not to cry* 

Jerome: And you're making my broski cry!!! 

Edward: Tch, incels... 

Jeremiah: *overhears this and angrily wipes his tears away, smudging his make up, as he walks up to Edward* What the fuck did you just say?! 

Edward: You heard me. You're an incel. You want to know why Bruce would never tap... *points to Jeremiah's ass* whatever the Tartarus that is? Simple. It's because of your personality. No! NAY! Everything about you! Generally, EV-ER-RY-THING! Same goes to Jerome. No one would ever want to date a terrorist, especially if he looks like a crippled old man! 

Jerome: *mumbles to himself as he glares at Edward* How fucking dare you?

Jeremiah: I should have paralyzed Oswald, just like I did to Selina. Maybe that would finally get you to shut up. 

Edward: You will not touch, or hurt Oswald in any way. If you do, I'll hurt whoever it is that you love just as badly, maybe even worse. 

Jeremiah: *gasps and looks at Bruce worriedly*

Bruce: Don't look at me like that. *Ed looks at him too* It's not me, Ed. I don't love him. I don't even feel the same way about him. It's probably Ecco whom he loves. 

Ecco: AAAAH!!! YES THANK YOU!!! *collapses onto her knees* THANK YOOOOOOU!!! 

*Everyone looks at her awkwardly*

Edward: Moving on from that. Enough said about you and your brother. *turns to Bruce* Bruce, word of advice to you: You should have fired Jeremiah the minute you suspected that was something wrong. And replaced him with someone who actually doesn't resort to violence if anyone disagrees with him. Someone like... me. Or maybe the 2nd prodigy from St. Ignatius after Jeremiah. *clears his throat* Hint, hint: that's also me but it could be someone else. 

Bruce: Ok? But now that you mention it, after I gave him that grant on that night, he didn't show up to work for almost an entire week. I was even left wondering what was going on with him. And I didn't know until it was too late. 

Edward: Aha, a grant, you say? You do realize that this makes you look like the inadvertent cause of No Man's Land, right? Jeremiah was the direct cause. I mean think about it. You gave him the money and it all led to this. If you hadn't done that, then no man's land would have been prevented. Those you love, those you care about, they would have never gotten hurt. Jeremiah would have just been another face in the crowd, a nobody. Just like the John Doe that he is. 

Jeremiah: You just want to insult me for the hell of it, don't you? 

Edward: *ignores him* And it goes without saying that he is Jerome's brother and that the Valeskas are nothing more but a bunch of bastards. That in itself should have given you red flags to tell you to stay away. It seems that a Valeska, regardless of who they are as an individual, always falls into the dark side regardless. 

Jeremiah: SHUT UP!!! 

Edward: *continues to ignore him* However, I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt because you didn't know that or even fully understand that. I didn't either when I encountered him for the first time. And I'm going to give you another word of advice: Be careful on who it is that you hire and always do a background check. THOROUGHLY. Because you never know what they can end up doing in the future. 

Bruce: *sighs* Alright. 

Jeremiah: *screeches like a wild animal as he pounces on Edward and then tries to choke him while shaking him* I TOLD YOU TO SHUT UP!!!

Edward: *tauntingly while coughing* What's... the... matt... er...? Ca... Can't... handle... the... tr... truth??? 

514A: *hands Bruce an aluminum baseball bat* 

Bruce: *takes it and walks behind Jeremiah* 

Jeremiah: *during his rage, notices that Bruce is behind him* Bruce, what are you doing? Why do you have a bat. 

Bruce: *silent for a moment before speaking solemnly* Something I should have done years ago. *Hits Jeremiah with the bat* 

Jeremiah: *falls to the ground unconscious as he lets go of Edward*

Edward: *gasps and coughs* 

Bruce: Guess I really should have went for the head, huh? 

514A: *places a hand on his shoulder as an attempt to comfort him and Selina does the same* At least, you made up for it. 

Bruce: Yeah.

Ecco: Puddin'!

Jerome: Broski!
