Margo Sandoval is the latest recruit to Psychwatch, bringing a new level of empathy to the controversial agency known for its unforgiving methods.

Untreated by deadpiixie

XXX COMPLETED This is the story of a sick, sick being. The virus of trauma has infested the brain, deteriorating their body from the inside out. Stuck in an endless loop of pain and suffering, they can't seem to make any of it stop. Nor, find the root of it all. This is the story of a patient with psychosis. Stronger than even the highest warden can reach. The cure for this disease is unknown. The pain is Indescribable . And the effects are unimaginable. From hallucinations, to murder, this patient can never be fixed by a doctor. And, perhaps, not even by death. Captivated by lonesome, insanity welcomes you. When you hear the static, cover your eyes. When your neck is cold, don't turn around. And if you ever feel alone, run. I hope you are uncomfortable.

Dirty Little Secret by Whatsername0904

Hayley Winters is your average, everyday person-that is until she starts working at Arkham Asylum,where she becomes the infamous Joker's psychiatrist, and slowly starts to see herself succumbing to madness.. *PLEASE READ THE A/N IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT YOU DO* ~PREVIEW~ It has been my dream to work at Arkham Asylum ever since I started studying psychology. Many think I'm the one who's insane for wanting to work in the one building In all of Gotham that holds the very worst of the worst. But the way I see it; Why go through all the hard work I have endured, only to sit in an office and listen to people's everyday problems consisting of their cheating spouses and perverted bosses? That it what I would consider to be insane. It would also be unbelievably boring, uninteresting and a complete waste of my time. But with the criminally insane, I happen to find them absolutely fascinating. They are anything but boring. Their minds work in ways unlike any other,and I want to study them; To find out what really makes them tick. I want to know the catalyst that can make a normal,everyday person-like myself- fall into a category of animalistic behaviour; The that's space between insane and insecure.
