I felt like going through 'Heart of Hush' again and was reminded how much I like this moment between Bruce and Selina. For those who haven't read the story, what happens is Hush is back, and as part of his new plan against Batman, he removes Catwoman's heart but uses some machinery to keep her alive, so that she'll die slowly. There's more to it than that, but it's a pretty elaborate plan and not what this post is about. I just want to show appreciation to this scene of The Bat and The Cat.
But of course, as what normally happens with these two...
...it doesn't last. However, honestly, I know this may be a pretty uncommon opinion to have when it comes to this outcome. I actually don't mind this ending. On some level, I actually kind of like how it turns out. Sure, it's the usual "they love each other, but for whatever reason, they just can't be together," but it's nicer than how it usually goes.

Can I ask for general relationship fluff hcs with your favorite Batman rogues?
How about some PDA headcanons?
Riddler
Will literally take time during his crime broadcasts to brag about his SO.
If they’re willing to play “Lovely Assistant” during his show he’ll even give them a quick kiss on camera if they do something he thinks is particularly cute.
Edward will dispense romantic compliments, hugs and kisses to his SO anytime anywhere.
Emphasis on romantic.
He’s kind of uncomfortable with sexual PDA, suggestive flirting and subtle touches are nice but anything too obvious will upset him.
He prefers to keep the details of his sex life private and enjoys being the only one who gets to see his SO that way.
Scarecrow
I wouldn’t go so far as to call Jonathan an exhibitionist but he definitely appreciates his SO giving him affection in front of others.
While few and far between, John has had some romantic relationships, but none of those people ever wanted to be with him publicly.
It was always “Too soon” “Unprofessional” or worst of all, “Embarrassing”
So when his current SO gives him a long kiss on the mouth in front of his friends he practically turns to goo.
He gets a little thrill when his partner gives him a kiss on the neck or grope on the ass in public.
Not because people are watching, but because it means SO thinks he’s desirable and is proud to be with him, it gives a sense of permanence to the relationship in his mind.
Mad Hatter
Most of the time Jervis prefers to keep his affections low key in public.
Unless of course he feels like someone is giving his SO unwanted attention. (Certainly unwanted by him at any rate.)
Jervis doesn’t like to admit it but he can be a tad possessive.
Preferably he’ll take a seat in SO’s lap and start kissing them on the cheeks and fiddling with their shirt collar.
The man is a menace and isn’t above salacious promises to get his SO to go home early with him if the source of unwanted attention won’t take a damn hint.
Alternatively he could simply hypnotize the unwanted attention into walking away(and off a short pier.) if his SO is openly annoyed at the unwanted attention.
Penguin
The only person on this list that refrains from too much PDA out of a sense of propriety.
Possessiveness, personal insecurity and a general preference for privacy are all reasons he understands perfectly well, but he’s mostly interested in retaining a certain kind of image.
He’s a man of class, charm and elegance.
He actively avoids crass displays and only engages in purely romantic interactions with SO while in public.
A light peck on the cheek or cooed compliment are both common displays from him.
He does enjoy showing his partner off to friends and associates just like any other prideful bird, but never in a a vulgar way.
Two Face
Harvey is a possessive bastard.
He does NOT like people leering at his lover for any amount of time.
Even if it’s because they’re being affectionate with him.
Harvey is the kind of boyfriend that rents private rooms at restaurants so he can hit on his date in peace.
It’s honestly a bit silly.
Harley
Harley wouldn’t know “modest” if it bit her on the booty shorts.
She’ll make out with her date in a public park at 2pm.
And it’s 50/50 whether she keeps it completely above the belt.
This women will say depraved shit that belongs buried in the depths of 2010 wattpad to her SO while in hearing distance of 20 different people.
No hesitation no regret.
She doesn’t even get off on it she just genuinely doesn’t care who hears, it’s honestly kind of impressive.
Catwomen
EVIL.
She’s not doing this for the pleasure of the act itself she’s doing this to torture SO specifically.
Selina will slide her fingernails from the top of SO’s spine and into their back pocket for a squeeze while no one is looking.
She’ll whisper everything she’s going to do to them later while no ones listening.
Then she’ll slip inside jokes about it into the conversations she’s having with other people just to fuck around with them further.
Finally, she’ll disappear into the night in the shadow of her broken promises… Until she shows up at SO’s house an hour later.
Poison Ivy
Very similar to Harley in lack of fucks to give.
She should be able to freely show her SO affection regardless of who’s there.
And woe to those who disagree with her.
Any complaints about her being “inappropriate” will be met with a handful of hay fever to the face.
And any cat calling or wolf whistling will be met with a garden pot full of death to the everywhere.
Music Meister
This man will go as far as his partner lets him, he’s pretty much done away with the concept of “socially acceptable behavior” since becoming a supervillain.
He was never a fan of that jazz anyway.
Besides the most extreme reaction he gets from fellow rogues to his shenanigans is to be told to “Get a room!” By Oswald.
Everyone else generally just rolls their eyes or teases him.
So besides outright having sex in front of someone he’s up for anything!
And hey, if it was the right person watching, Something could probably be arranged~
