Arthur has always seen the world through different eyes. From his hearty chuckle, to the very core of his optimistic personality, he was always one to just smile. Unfortunately, those that hide behind a happy act, fall the hardest when facing the treachery of the cold,sinister eyes of society.


Suddenly when his life's about to turn for the worst, he meets a little young thing named Charlotte,who through her kind heart and selflessness wins his affections.

Lost Within Laughter. (arthur fleck/joker x oc) by xo_madness

« 𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒉𝒖𝒓 𝒇𝒍𝒆𝒄𝒌/𝒋𝒐𝒌𝒆𝒓 𝒙 𝒐𝒄 » She could remember the first time she ever saw Arthur Fleck. He was a shy, timid shell of a man, with his head hung low, shoulders sagged as he stumbled through the murky doors of Gotham's department of health and social services. But now, he was different. He stood strong and tall, his stance swelling with pride and oozing with confidence, whilst a wickedly ominous grin befell upon his painted red lips. Arthur was long gone now, the killer clown cackling before her was nothing more than the Joker himself.

Poetry in Motion by Inconvenient_Ideal

"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." Hearing Imelda speaking, Arthur blinked and looked down at her. She smiled and nodded at him, "What is it you're looking up at, Arthur? What's your stars, as per se?" She leaned casually against the wall; arms crossed regardless of the rustle of the plastic bag as she crossed one ankle over the over. He became a little nervous, admittedly. Imelda just looked at him patiently, smiling kindly all the while. She didn't mind him taking time to answer. "I want to go into comedy." Arthur said, watching her smile widen, she looked interestedly at him. "Standup, mainly." Arthur never thought in a million years that he would cross paths with someone who genuinely seemed to care and want to know what he would say; likewise with how he felt. Imelda Henderson was a little ray of sunshine in an otherwise bleak and dismal life, one which Arthur was more than glad came into his life. However, he was soon going to set into motion events that even he could not foresee or wholly control, but what's the point of controlling that which needs to be freed and let loose on the world? But then likewise, who says that needing to slowly let go and transform needs to be done alone? Everybody needs a somebody in their corner, and plus; misery loves company.

Will You Be My Daddy? ~Joker Fanfiction~ by Gingy484

What would happen if the Joker turned a four year old girl into a loyal and merciless killer? Joker meets a little girl on the street and she asks if he will be her daddy. He quickly dreams up a scheme to cause chaos with the little ragamuffin. However, despite his attempts to make the girl the perfect murderer, she is too sweet and giggly to focus on anything he tells her and ends up sidetracking him and making him laugh. He finds that he is using the plot as an excuse to have the girl around. But what happens when his girl is threatened by other villains? Will he defend her? Or what if she fails in his evil plot? How will Batman react to Joker's plan? *****TW: Attempted sexual assault of a minor in chapter 1-does not get very far but description can be jarring, so stay safe******* This story is rated PG-13, at least by me, for cursing, violence, and other mature themes and ideas. Obviously no good Joker fanfiction is going to be rated G. Read at your own risk, and don't try to report this book if you don't take this warning seriously. Know yourself and your limits. For real, if it's not appropriate for you, just don't read it, don't send hate. By the way, according Wattpad guidelines, stories are considered mature if: scenes of sex, graphic violence, or self-harm are depicted or if the media contains nudity or other inappropriate content. So cursing does not necessarily a mature story make. I own the right to my character Madeline and the plot associated with her story. I do not own any of the characters that belong to the DC Comics universe. This fanfiction will use the Jared Leto Joker as the primary source of physical inspiration, but Heath Ledger's Joker is the ideological muse here, as well as quotes and themes from other Jokers, perhaps even Gotham's Jerome Valeska. -Started June 2017- -Completed November 2018-

-🦇- 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙁𝙄𝙍𝙎𝙏 𝘽𝙊𝙊𝙆 𝙄𝙉 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝘽𝘼𝙏𝙌𝙐𝙄𝙉𝙉 𝘼𝙍𝙆𝙃𝘼𝙈 𝙎𝙀𝙍𝙄𝙀𝙎 -♦️- It's been six long excruciating months since the tragic events of the Killing Joke storyline occurred which unfortunately left Barbara Gordon aka Batgirl paralyzed from the waist down by a bullet to the spine from the Joker himself. Barbara is struggling to accept her new life now being labeled as a paralytic and is feeling more useless than ever still not finding a definitive role in Team Gotham Knights. Meanwhile, Dr. Harleen Quinzel formally known as the infamous Harley Quinn was declared sane a few months back and is now working alongside Batman as his new partner in crime Batwoman. As for Batman, he's been acting quite different this past year ever since he started dating and eventually marrying Dr. Harleen Quinzel. When the Killing Joke incident happened Bruce was of course feeling remorseful and great pain for the Gordon Family as it reminded him of his very own trauma, but he handled it very differently this time around and learned to use that raging pain to fuel him positively. All that is thanks to Harley who taught Bruce to love again and made him a better man in the process. But now a new incident is about to arise as their strength and morals will be greatly tested once again as the respected Bat Family. When the Joker causes chaos and gets caught as always he is then sent over to the Asylum where their worst nightmare will eventually manifest when the Joker gets loose and takes over the Madhouse by releasing all the infamous supervillains of Gotham. The duo will fight through their infamous rogues' gallery, Joker's Gang, and also against the ticking clock as they hope to unravel and stop Joker's horrifying plan for the city.
