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

Ninth Question

Midnxght_far_away asks: Question to all, Are all of the villains like friends or something? 

Oswald: Honey, do you have any idea of how rare such a thing is in a city like this? 

Jerome: Yeah, the closest thing we've got is how we TOLERATE each other's existence. *while holding a butcher knife* And a simple stab between friends. *smiles like a demon* Knife sex, basically. Kind of like what happened between Ed and Lee. If y'know what I'm sayin' >;). *winks twice teasingly* 

514A: *yells from another room offscreen* No one knows what you're talking about, Jerome! Give up! 

Jerome: *yells back angrily* OH BLOW IT OUT OF YOUR ASS, FIVES!!! GODS, SOMETIMES YOU'RE WORSE THAN JEREMIAH!!! 

Jeremiah: To add to what they said, there's also using someone for your own gains and then killing them once their purpose is finished. 

Bruce: *grimly* Oh, you'd know all about that, wouldn't you? 

Jeremiah: Sweetheart, you're lucky that I love you because if I didn't, I would've just killed you on the spot right now for saying that. So keep your pretty little mouth shut, doll, *with gritted teeth and grasping Bruce's chin firmly* got it?

Bruce: *pushes him away by kneeing him in the ribs* You're not my dad, so you're not allowed to tell me what do! The only living people that are allowed to do that are Jim, Alfred, Lee, Lucius, and sometimes Harvey. 

Jeremiah: Oh-ho! And they're ok with you hanging out with the flightless fat bird and his riddle-spouting, sphinx-wannabe, hooligan of a boyfriend? 

Bruce: And Bane and Nyssa are ok with you hanging out with the emo that hacks up technology into pieces and the human plague that used to be a hero during one of those rare crossovers? 

Jeremiah: Don't turn this around on me! The mary sue and the homeless guy that you are with during those same crossovers aren't any better! Go ahead and say that pathetic joke Jim Gordon's name one more time! I dare you! See what happens! 

Bruce: You want to take this fight outside?! 

Jeremiah: Oh my! How very barbaric and vikingly of you! 

*They both rush outside and once they're out, the sound of their physical fight starting can be heard.* 

Ed: *cringes at the noises before responding* But on the flip side, maybe you just might end up with someone that you can form a meaningful relationship with in the future. Jim, Bruce, and I are the only ones that I can think of that have proven the opposite. 

Oswald: Oh, how sweet. *smiles sappily* 

Ed: Oh, by the way, how did Jerome know about what happened between Lee and I? 

Oswald: Who knows? Maybe he over heard? I mean, it did happen around the same time as Jerome's death and Jeremiah's rise. 

Ed: Huh, makes sense. I actually tried to join the Legion of Horribles around that time, but I was rejected because of Jerome's bias against "nerds". He even ended up replacing me with Butch. 

Oswald: Oh, I didn't know that. 

Ed: But can you really trust a Valeska? 

Oswald: *dejectedly* No. 

Ed: Exactly. 

A/N: I'm back! And I'm so sorry for being away for so long. Dealing with college work mixed with the cocktail that is depression and procrastination is a bitch. So, if you're planning to continue asking questions for this ask, expect that the process is going to be pretty slow from now on. I'm just giving you a heads up.
