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

Fourth Question

Midnxght_far_away asks: This question is for Oswald: Are you and Edward together? 

Oswald: Is it really that relevant? Yes. Yes we are. 

Ed: *while holding up a gay-pride flag* We're gay and we're proud. We owe it to Bruce. In a way. I mean had he not come back and had Jeremiah not snapped awake, I would have never seen Oswald again. Being separated for so long was just agony. 

Oswald: Yeah, and also the day after the whole Jeremiah debacle, Bruce invited us both over to talk things out. Never imagined that the guy who disappeared and came back 10 years later to thwart our plans also became our relationship therapist. 

Ed: What he means is, we talked it out, patched up any loose ends from before No Man's Land. For the first time, I forgave Oswald for what happened with Isabella. Even though after that, Isabella had become a distant memory to me. A reminder to not be so naive. Overall, the experience was therapeutic for both of us. 

Oswald: After that, we became closer friends with Bruce and after that, we realized we had feelings for each other. This time Ed accepted my feelings for him. 

Ed: And a happy ending grew from there. Bruce even said he would be honored to be the best man to our wedding when it does happen. 

Oswald: Jeremiah can only dream of having what we have...

Ed: That soulless twat is now going to be forever alone since he killed his own proxy. 

Oswald: Or maybe some woman with no brain will come along and mistake his sadism and psychopathic nature for flattery and charm. 

Ed: He can't see anything but Bruce as anything but a pawn to be disposed of eventually. 

Oswald: That's true.  

Ed: I can understand Bruce's struggle against him. I personally bore witness to a lot of the heinous things he did back in St. Ignatius. He was a sophomore at the time and I was a senior. So he was 2 years behind me.  

Oswald: You went to the same college as him? 

Ed: Yeah. 

Oswald: Were you his roommate at any point? 

Ed: Thankfully, no. There were a lot of things that he did during that time that I'd rather not disclose because it's too... disturbing... *shivers* ...traumatizing... ...and... ...creepy. *shivers again* He tried to do some things to me personally.

Oswald: *hugs him to comfort him* You don't have to talk about it, if you don't want to. If you want to talk at a later time, I'll be here. 

Ed: Thanks.
