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

Tenth Question

Val_Creative asks: What does everyone do to relax? Spa day? Reading a book? Maiming an enemy? 

Edward: Read books. Particularly Lovecraft. *while holding up "The Statement of Randolph Carter"* I often read them whenever I'm not busy. To help distract myself from the painful-at-times headache that is reality. And a lot of people regard that as boring. Also, Oswald and I go out to dinner together. Occasionally we have a double date with Bruce, Fives, and Selina.

Jerome: *from afar* LAME-O! 

Oswald: I also read Lovecraft's works from time to time. But I mostly read Edgar Allen Poe's work when I'm not busy. 

Jerome: *from afar* Again, LAME-O! Come on, Oswald! I thought you weren't a nerd! 

Oswald: Need I remind you, Jerome! You let nerds work on your insanity gas! Without us, you would have never been able to do what you have done to Jeremiah, let alone know the ingredients needed. 

Jerome: That was only a one-time thing! And also, if you're a member of the Legion of Horribles, you're not a nerd, you're a member of the Jerome-rules-Jeremiah-drools club! No nerds allowed! Forget girls having cooties! Nerds are the ones who have cooties! 

Bruce: Whenever Fives and I are not busy, we usually have movie nights together with Alfred and occasionally we would invite some friends along. Sometimes we make fun of how cheesy and cliche some films are. Also, we do read books from time to time as well when were not busy too. Lovecraft, like Ed and Oswald, T.S. Elliot, August Derlith, even though he is a manga artist, Junji Ito, and others. Another thing we do is go out to have a dinner date with Selina. 

514A: Which we have to be very careful when we do that. Because Jeremiah and Jerome have agents crawling about in the city like the rats that they are and if one of them finds out about it, they blab about it to Jeremiah and Jerome. Every single time, my beloveds and I go out, those 2 soulless hacks show up and hold the place hostage until they find Bruce. Bruce always goes to the bathroom and thank gods Batman shows up to deal with the problem and have them sent back to Arkham. 

Jerome: Well at least you guys read something that has pictures in it, *while chuckling* pretty funny ones too. I'm gonna let this one slide. 

Jeremiah: *clears his throat really loudly* Quiet, peons! Your king, your god is here. 

Bruce: Pfft, "God"? As if! 

Jeremiah: I said quiet! You all should obey your god! 

Edward: *snickers*

Jeremiah: *growls in frustration* At least Jerome and I aren't like you, peons. We are not only "wanted" but we are also "wonted" too! 

Jerome: I agree with you for once! 

Edward: Oh you both have to look that up sometime! *laughs* 

The Valeska twins: *confused* Huh? 

514A: *frustrated sigh* Since Jeremiah is not answering fast enough and he probably will never admit to how much of a show off he is. Whenever Selina is out having a girls-day-out with Claire, Bridgit, and Ivy. Occasionally, Ms. Kean and Lee tag along as well. They also go to the spa as well. Also, you know that popular bitchy girl stereotype that you can find in your high school? Well, whenever they're out somewhere, Jeremiah, conveniently, is also there. He is there with the sole intent to try and prove how he is better than everyone and how all the girls, and guys, are all just skanks, simps and thots. Going back to what I said earlier about the restaurant. He does this all the time. Whenever both he and his brother are not out being the Clown Princes of Crime that they are, they're usually being public nuisances and general dicks to people for no reason. At least until Batman shows up and kicks their asses. 

Edward: Uh-oh! *while playing the triangle* Code HTS alert! Code HTS alert! 

514A: By the way, "HTS" stands for Hypocritical, Thotty Simp in case you're wondering. 

Oswald: *bangs a gong*

Bruce: Yeah, it's because of this that whenever we go out, we have to be careful with whatever area we choose. So in short, all of us, except for the gingers, are fans of H.P. Lovecraft and other authors like him basically. 

Much later... 

*Jerome and Jeremiah are seen reading a dictionary together.*

Jerome: Have you found the word yet, 'Miah? 

Jeremiah: Yes. 

Jerome: Well then read it. 

Jeremiah: *reads the word and definition* "Wonted". Average or commonplace. 

Both: *shocked by the word's actual meaning* Wait, seriously?! *angrily* Damn you, Nygma. You're going to pay for humiliating us like that!
