could I request hcs for BTAS, arkham, and capullo riddler with an easily flustered s/o?
absolutely!
note: feel free to reblog and comment! just give credit where credit is due :)
Riddlers with easily flustered S/O!
Tumblr media
BTAS! Riddler:
ohhh look how cute you look!
maybe part of the reason you guys got together?
this guy gets pretty flustered too, i mean cmon weve all seen the episode where he was called cute
feel free to hide your red face in his coat, he will eat that up
chuckling and rubbing circles on your back
his teasing you wont ever be done in a malicious way! he just thinks youre so darling when youre face is red and you stumble over your words
if you tell him that makes you insecure or you dont really like it when he points it out, he would understand. if not, he will revel in how flustered you get
no one is to tease you about it except for him >:(
Tumblr media
Arkham Knight! Riddler:
this greasy bastard would probably be the most mean about it at first
he thinks that it would be a sign that youre stupid even though he gets flustered himself
im just going to leave this here...
why are you having trouble speaking? why are you hiding your face? are you an idiot?
the further you get into your relationship the less intense he will be when you get flustered
he has been flustered and he has also been downright humiliated, he knows how it feels so its something he has to keep in mind now
eventually he may find it cute...
okay fine maybe he thinks its pretty adorable
Tumblr media
Capullo! Riddler:
this little shit
he revels in your flustered state. he will exploit it and show it off to as many people as possible
he would probably do one of those "aww what has you so flustered?" in a very degrading tone of voice
"use your words" type bitch
makes you look him in the eye without breaking eye contact
i imagine that he would make it into some sort of game. if you keep your eyes on his, if you speak without stuttering, etc.
he also probably takes it as a sign that youre less intelligent than him
he may be nicer about it down the line? again he would totally be the type to exploit this side of you

Riddlers' Favorite Word for Breasts
Author's note: These are just my opinions! By the way, I haven't actually read/watched/played every piece of source material these Riddlers come from, so apologies in advance if some of them are inaccurate.
Telltale: Just says "breasts". Nothing weird or super raunchy.
Capullo: "Titties, ta-tas, funbags, bazongas, honker-bonker-doinky-boinkies", every single ridiculous word for them under the sun.
Arkham: Is too embarrassed (but will not admit it) to say it straight up, but will sort of vaguely gesture towards the top half of your body and say "chest" with an odd emphasis to it.
Unburied: "Milkers/breasticles", I think he would be super annoying and cringe about it, too.
Gotham: He would get very scientific and say "mammaries", or be like Telltale and just say "breasts" straight up.
Dano: "Boobs", but in a voice so quiet you can barely hear him. Also, he looks away in shame.
Young Justice: "B-Boobies", he stutters and covers his face, and can't decide whether to feel embarrassed or burst into a giggling fit like an idiot.
Twojar: "Tits"/"Rack", not childish enough to go full-on Capullo, but has enough sleazy playfulness to at least give the twins a nickname.
BTAA: "Treasures", those things you hide under your shirt are just another prize locked under a puzzle that none other than The Riddler himself can solve! Not to mention, a prize he deserves for being the world's greatest artistic criminal.

It's something that just came to my mind
Clark Kent is talking to the Batman while Riddler and S/O are spying on him and S/O is like "What is Superman doing here?". And since people in DC didn't know that it's him, Riddler gives her a weird look saying she must be mistaken. But S/O gives him a long, silent stare "You're kidding me, right?". It comes to the point where she holds a picture of Clark and Superman next to each other, pointing glasses out and Riddler is like "..... 'DING!' YOU HAVE TO BE JOKING!" The man is kicking himself for not seeing it.
For all Riddlers.
A/N: ooohhh the denial is strong in this one
Tumblr media
The Riddlers React to Finding Out Superman's Identity
Arkhamverse Riddler:
Oh please.
Do you really think he’s that idiotic? He’s that ignorant?
(this is not the time to mention he dismissed Bruce Wayne being Batman)
He berates you a couple more times, so he left you no choice.
When you pulled out a picture of the Man of Steel and a pair of glasses up against the real-life Clark Kent below
Edward was silent. 
No…NO that’s too obvious! 
Although the pictures are damning. 
He snatches the photos and huffs. 
He admits the two are uncanny, but surely it’s some alien-like cloning technology. 
Besides, it doesn't matter! He’s smarter than Kent or Superman anyway
Reevesverse/Dano Riddler:
It takes him a minute to even realize there is a “superman”
Do you mean to say that Metropolis has its own hero too? 
But not just a man of the people? A vigilante? Like a full-on hero with powers?!
The last thing he’d suspect afterward is that this Superman…was a journalist? 
He was curious as to why Batman would be discussing something with a random journalist from Daily Planet.
Yet when you exclaim how the civilian looks like Superman, he’s pretty skeptical. 
Until you pull up a picture of Superman on your phone. 
Edward does a double take. 
In hindsight, it’s so obvious…
Ed wonders if Batman knows this…he has to right?
Gotham Riddler:
This was the last place he expected to end up when following Batman. 
On the roof of a building a couple buildings away from Daily Planet. 
Why is Batman talking to a reporter? Surely, he’d go to a more reliable source like…well Gordon is all he could think of. 
He also wasn’t sure why he brought you along exactly but the assistance was appreciated. 
Ed didn’t expect the next thing you’d bring up though. 
Something about how the journalist looks like…Superman? 
The Superman? The Kryptonian? 
Yeah sure, right…
Ed practically snatched your phone when you exhibited the evidence. 
With his usual tight-lipped expression, he hands you back your phone.
He deems it another scheme for another day.
BTAS Riddler:
It may just be me playing favorites…lmao
BUT I do have evidence from the BTAS Writing Bible that says, this Riddler is most likely to figure out Batman’s identity if he actually wanted to that is…
So with that, I’d like to think that Ed would have already figured it out?
Like you may have been helping him do some recon and you’re listening in on the conversation between Batman and Clark. 
After a moment a lightbulb goes off in your head. 
When you mention the resemblance between Kent and Superman…
Edward chuckled. 
Why did you think you two were listening in on their conversation? 
He is proud that you were able to spot it though. 
Some rogues still don’t believe him when he brought up the most likely secret identity to the Man of Steel.
Zero Year/Capullo Riddler:
Ed only hacked into Daily Planet because he already caused chaos in Gotham City and Star City, so why not Metropolis? 
He was surprised to see Batman there and not brooding somewhere in Gotham. 
You walked in while Ed was surveillancing the newsroom. 
You were about to joke with him about how much of a Batman fanboy he must be to watch his every move. 
Until the journalist the Dark Knight was talking to caught your eye. 
You mentioned the striking resemblance to Superman. 
Edward scoffed at your observation. 
Oh, please a journalist? Really? 
He will never admit it, but he was kicking himself mentally for not seeing it first. It’s blaringly obvious now.
Twojar Riddler:
Edward doesn’t really care for the Kryptonian. 
What good are all those superpowers if he’s not intelligent? 
Not to mention his alias would be simple to solve. 
Which is why he never entertained the conundrum, what advantage would it do him?
He had much more thrilling and productive puzzles to ponder over. 
That doesn’t stop you from shoving two pictures in his face in the morning. 
You made the proud declaration that Superman was the featured journalist, Clark Kent of Daily Planet. 
Edward was thinking about how he can disprove your claim…gently until he glanced down at the images. 
There was Kent, a proud grin to the camera…and Superman smirking to the side…with hastily drawn glasses around his face. 
Ed was silent for a moment. 
No…there was no way it was that obvious…
They both resided in Metropolis, and had a similar build and face structure…
He bites his lip. 
He can’t tell if he should be proud of your deduction skills or hit himself in the head with his cane for not seeing it sooner.
Gotham City Sirens Riddler:
Another Edward that I think either knows or has figured out Superman’s identity.
He doesn’t really care for the Man of Steel. 
Ed will just stay in his lane in Gotham City. 
Yet when you two chase down a perp into Metropolis. 
You two got to see Superman in action. 
It was you that brought up how he looked oddly familiar. 
Intrigued, he asked you to elaborate. 
You said he looked an awful lot like that journalist you two bumped into when interrogating an editor at Daily Planet. 
You told him to imagine if Superman had a dress shirt and glasses on.
Ed smiled as you put two and two together.
Ed had long since deducted Superman was likely tied to Daily Planet, a photo of a certain Clark Kent proved as much.
However, to have you reach the same deduction, he couldn't help but beam in pride a little bit.
You have been learning some skills from him after all.
Young Justice Riddler:
Sure he pondered the aliases of all his enemies. 
He couldn’t get distracted by that however, it could take months or years to figure it out. 
He could have defeated them by then…don’t laugh he could have.
The two of you are reconning outside Daily Planet.
Ed was complaining about not being in Gotham where you both had prior experience with the city. 
You rolled your eyes as you kept an eye on Superboy talking to some dude in a white button-up and glasses. 
You were about to doze off until you got a good look at the journalist’s face. 
You tap Ed on the shoulder, interrupting his rant when you asked if that journalist looked familiar. 
Ed mentioned something about how that was probably Clark Kent, a celebrated journalist, and partner to Lois Lane. 
You asked if he noticed anything else. 
When he shook his head you began listing out his physical features…and how if you just remove the glasses and put him in a blue suit with a giant S and a cape…
Ed’s jaw dropped as he snatched the binoculars away from you. 
There’s no…you’ve gotta be kidding him?!
Clark Kent is SUPERMAN?! 
Eddie practically rage quits and you’re steady on his heels as he storms off.
Telltale Riddler:
He is aware of the Kyrptonian invader. 
And his rather obvious alias…
You would think the Superman would come up with a lower profile.
However he has bigger fish to fry in Gotham. 
Apparently a certain Clark Kent was visiting Gotham and was having discussions with the Batman. 
When you saw the interaction the moment clicked-
If you just removed the glasses…
You won’t lie, you were rather excited about your deduction.
He cruelly teases you when you mention the likelihood of Superman’s identity.
Edward, practically condescendingly pats your head. 
You’ll never be as smart as him, but perhaps at least smarter than the average civilian.
Hush (DCAU) Riddler:
(I realize this Riddler may very well also know who Superman is...but I just wanted to try and change it up, rip lmao)
He realizes that Superman and Batman…seem to be close allies. 
He may have a hunch about Batman’s identity but if he could solve Superman’s identity…THE Superman. 
One day, Ed may just have the upper hand. 
You two were steadily following Batman, gathering whatever sliver of information that Batman may slip out. 
Right when Ed was about to give up and just focus his time on another scheme…
You noticed something. 
Batman was discussing something, something serious with a journalist that stood toe to toe with the Caped Crusader. 
You looked at the journalist, he’s stupidly buff for a journalist…that jaw…and that little curled bang...
Wait a minute!
It took some convincing for Ed to see Clark Kent was Superman…but once you slapped some glasses on a Superman photo, a lightbulb went off. 
He’s simultaneously disappointed in himself for not seeing it sooner…he blames it on the burnout. 
But he does show gratitude to you, but of course, it was thanks to him you were able to pick up on it too…
Just let him have this one…he needs it.

Help so I might've wrote a few of these last night 'cause I couldn't sleep, also 'cause I'm just so in love with dano riddler.
You love hugging Eddie
Can't help it
Your favorite way to hug him though is hugging his torso
You hug him like that all the time
Whenever you greet him
Whenever you're both sitting on the couch
Whenever you're cuddling
Whenever one of you is crying
Even when you're both sleeping
You find it hard to find a good sleeping position
But once you've nuzzled yourself against him with your arms wrapped around his torso, you just fall asleep quicker
You told him once that he reminds you of the stay puft marshmallow man because they both looked squishy
He laughed at that and you just ruffled his hair and smiled at him
He's just so cuddly and soft
God I love him

what albums do you think ed/riddler would be into? what would he play for Y\N in disarm?
ANON THIS MADE MY DAY-- i'm putting this all under a read more bc this basically is a dissertation
Okay so I think that there's 3 groups of music Eddie listens to, sad introspective music, harsh angry wall-of-sound music, and then music he discovered in college So if you read his journal there is a lot of (imo) really really sad stuff in it. He writes about how he was born into hell and that the only reason he was put on this earth was to suffer and that no one understands him or will ever understand him, that when he looks in the mirror all he sees is hell/pain and suffering. So when Eddie gets into this state of thinking about being in pain and suffering and feeling out of step with the rest of the world I think that he would be into listening to quiet, introspective sad music. I'm thinking Elliot Smith specifcally and that is because Elliot Smith had some demons, and his songs have a LOT of despair and rage written into them. I think that Edward could heavily relate to a lot of the lyrics in them.
Elliot Smith Lyrics that remind me of Edward: Christian Brothers: Fake concern asks, "what's the matter, man?" And you think I oughta shake your fucking hand. Well, I know how much you care // Nightmares become me, it's so fucking clear
Riot Coming: And I want to tell you that there's a riot coming, like a drug in the water. A punch in the stomach makes sons into daughters. Roman Candle: I wanna hurt him. I wanna give him pain. I'm a roman candle, my head is full of flames. I'm hallucinating, I'm hallucinating. I hear you cry, your tears are cheap. Wet red hot swollen cheeks, fall asleep. Ballad of Big Nothing: Watching the parade with pinpoint eyes, full of smoldering anger. You can do what you want to, whenever you want to. You can do what you want to, there's no one to stop you. Okay anyway, I really could write out Elliot Smith lyrics that relate to him all day long but then this post would be 10 miles long so I'm gonna stop there. Okay so when Edward is in Riddler Mode, he's very manic, he has so many thoughts that they spill out of his head onto every other surface in the room. I think that when he's like that or going into that mode he's listening to loud, screamy, heavy, angry, wall-of-sound type music. Sometimes when your brain is screaming at you and everything is a lot, a lot, a lot, then you need music that will Drown That Out, or help focus the energy by matching it. (in my experience) So this is where My Bloody Valentine, Pixies, Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana comes in. (Some nirvana songs could be in the previous category as well) Lots of songs with heavy guitars, screaming and violent imagery. There's a reason that every chapter title in my fic is a Smashing Pumpkins lyric and it's because they fit him SO WELL. There's a lot of religious imagery that's used in pumpkins songs as well too and that also fits Eddie. Songs and Lyrics that I think fit Eddie: Quiet//Smashing Pumpkins: Quiet, I am sleeping, In here we need a little hope. Jesus, are you listening? Up there to anyone at all?
Tonight, Tonight// Smashing Pumpkins: We'll crucify the insincere tonight, we'll make things right, we'll feel it all tonight Zero// Smashing Pumpkins: Emptiness is loneliness, and loneliness is cleanliness, and cleanliness is godliness and God is empty, just like me. Mr. Grieves// Pixies: *sung sarcastically with laughter in it* Hope everything is all right, hope everything is alright! What's that floating in the water? Oh, Neptune's only daughter. <- this whole song is very eddie-core, there's a part where the singer keeps asking "do you have another opinion?" in a taunting sing-song manner as well Debaser// Pixies <- he is this song Something Against You// Pixies Break My Body// Pixies Bullet With Butterfly Wings// Smashing Pumpkins <- he is also this song Disarm// Smashing Pumpkins <-- and this one Only Shallow// my bloody valentine (lots of noise) basically every nirvana song
Alright now onto the third section, music he discovered in college/highschool. So: Every iteration of the Riddler has a SUPERIORITY COMPLEX. Every single one. I think that this would absolutely extend into music tastes and he would have Music Opinions. I think going off the music I addressed above, it would naturally lead him to bands like Modest Moue and Death Cab For Cutie for sure. He is a sad boy at heart. Modest Mouse makes music for people that are sad and nuerotic and I will die on this hill I think that he would also listen to Aphex Twin and more experimental music like that, stuff that itches your brain in a good way by listening to it. I could see him listening to Aphex Twin and Boards of Canada while dinking around on his laptop for SURE. He would say something like, "Yeah I listen to Radiohead but you should listen listen to Boards of Canada they inspired Radiohead." I also think that he would listen to japanese shoegaze/garage rock stuff as well and would dig through record stores and garage sales looking for obscure presses. OKAY AS FOR WHAT HE WOULD ACTUALLY SHOW Y/N in my fic, I think he would go with safe bets like Modest Mouse or Death Cab to talk to her about, and then go into the 90s rock stuff once he was more comfortable but I think he would keep the Elliot Smith stuff to himself because it's more deeply personal. albums he would own/listen to: in utero/nirvana, bleached/nirvana, surfer rosa/pixies, doolittle/pixies, something about airplanes/dcfc, the photo album/dcfc, siamese twin/smashing pumpkins, mellon collie and the infinite sadness/ smashing pumpkins, Westing (by musting and sextant)/pavement, Brighten the corners/pavement, roman candle/elliot smith (basically all the elliot smith albums) loveless/my bloody valentine, Goo/sonic youth Ummmmm ANYWAY Sorry that this is NOVEL I just loveeeeeeeeeeee talking about music omgggggg

Ik this is sorta late depending on time zones and this ask being cheesy as hell but what would the Riddlers do for Valentine's Day with reader? Something cheesy asf? Or not celebrating it at all? I wanna know I'm curious as hell now
Valentine's Date
Riddler Headcanons gosh i rushed so fast to get this done today!! luckily, it was a blessing as work was SLOW! so here are the boys and how they would celebrate valentine's day in my mind because i am down bad for them all and live in a fantasy world where they would all try and do something nice for you 💚 request info • prompt list • send me a request • kofi • masterlist minors DNI!! 🔞 cw: suggestive stuff but it's mostly fluff!!
Tumblr media
young justice
i can almost guarantee that if you're spending valentine's day with him, it'll be the first one he's had with a partner
so he is pushing the boat out. or... as best as he can... what with the nerves
he wouldn't do something too extravagant, not too fancy or big. that would only increase the number of people he might embarrass himself in front of
he's far more keen on taking you to a quiet, unexpected but comfortable restaurant with quiet music and only a few tables, so he can talk to you and hear you properly
he'd buy you a single rose, hire the violinist to play a song by your table, your favourite tune
no dancing, he's got two left feet, but he will reach across the table and hold your hand, stroking it with his thumb and looking into your eyes
and when he takes you home, he'll walk you to your door and offer you a shy, reserved kiss
whether or not you pull him through the door by his tie and ravage the poor beast is up to you
unburied
he wouldn't actually ask you out for valentine's day
he'd give you a rant about capitalism and how it's a made up holiday and that you should keep your calendar clear anyway just in case he decides to do an ironic date
you'd think his goal was to embarrass you, in fact, because he's showing up to your house with a little remote control and blasting your favourite song out of every speaker system you own
"hey, sh... don't ask how i know your favourite song or how i got control of your devices. just... stop thinking about it. hey. hey! you're thinking about it... don't think about it, sh you're too pretty to think about it. let me think about it, i'm smarter and prettier"
dinner isn't anything too special either. takeout pizza on a rooftop in gotham somewhere. it could be romantic though, and it would be to someone desperately in love with him like you
listening to him talk about light pollution, asking if you want to hear some riddles about constellations, pointing out the various places he's hid from his enemies
it's not traditional by any means, but it is oddly romantic. dinner, music, time alone under the dulled stars. maybe that was his plan all along
gotham
oh we are going WHOLE HOG here for valentine's day!! you know he's an old romantic, a sweet and gentle soul
so don't think for a moment that you'll be seeing any other people that day, your attention will be solely focused on each other
he's sent, uh... someone has sent in some miscellaneous threat to your workplace, so luckily for you(!) you're not required to go in! SO SURPRISE!! he's here to make you breakfast
and then a brief walk down some of the quieter streets, where he might be brave enough to ask if he can hold your hand
once you're at his apartment, you're in for some respectable but tension filled cuddles on his sofa while you watch some classic romance movies
and then he's making a beautiful three course meal for you both! pressed tablecloth on his little dining table, roses in a conical flask, candles in test tubes (is he stealing these from work?)
he'll feed you little bits of food, wiping your face with a napkin, staring into your eyes dreamily
and then the night will end with a perfect and very polite kiss that you'll wish wouldn't end
telltale
he knows how to do romance, he's been around long enough. it's more a question of whether he can be bothered to celebrate
but he'll pull himself together and act the perfect gentleman for you, regardless of how tired he is after a day of committing violent/cyber crime and being oddly agile for a man in receipt of a state pension
(a fact which will come in handy at the end of the evening...)
he'll start off the evening with the traditional gifts. a box of expensive chocolates or candy, perfectly suited to your dietary requirements of course. and a bouquet of flowers. not roses, but your favourites. he knows they'll make you happier
he's not one for being out in public, what with the whole "is he dead" thing, so you'll be dining in BUT to make it special, he has hired a discreet personal chef to provide the food for the evening
slow, quiet jazz playing in the background, just you, him, and the waiters he has hired and has threatened under extreme violence to keep their mouths shut about this particular shift
could it get any more romantic??
arkham
bless his heart but this eddie is forgetting that it's valentine's day until you're handing him a card, grasping it between his dirty fingers, smudging the soft pink colour with grimy fingerprints
then, you'll endure a fifteen minute long lecture about why you should have at least had the sense to warn him in advance, or to remind him, since you know how he can be
and when he's done, he'll be pushing you out of the room, getting rid of you so he can "finish his important work" and only then can you consider "doing something for this silly holiday"
really, he's just looking for an excuse to get you away so he can work on your very last minute present without you seeing
which of course, he'll present to you as though he had been pretending to forget all along
"i made you this, it's a symbol of our relationship"
it's the remnants of a neon question mark bent into place to resemble a heart. and there's hot glue still drying on it. and a screw stuck to it
but it's the thought that counts, and the thought is there! after all he loves you enough to have lied and put aside his important welding or whatever to haphazardly craft the lie
dano
for him, valentine's day is about showing your love for someone. because you can love them every day, but this is an excuse to make a display out of it
so expect a myriad of gifts, food, perfumes, vouchers, jewellery, stuffed animals, flowers, a handmade valentine's card
enough that it makes you guilty (and enough that you wonder if he really has just been saving all his salary instead of spending it on... furniture or therapy)
then, the personalised activities! most of which involve you doing his quiz all about you and your relationship with him, solving several riddles that lead you to a hidden compartment in the wall of his bedroom (weird.) where he's stuffed his poems to you (sweet!) which he will then recite to you, stuttering over the words and blushing the whole time
but it's not enough for him, he wants to shout it from the rooftops, show the world how much he loves you and appreciates you
he's had all this love bottled up for so long with no one deserving to give it to! let's just hope it comes out in a healthy way...
btaa
he's swooping in to your apartment very late at night
"it's only 11pm, it's still valentine's day mi amorrrrr"
look, he's very sorry that he wasn't able to spend the day with you, and that he's incredibly late to the dinner you had planned
but he's a busy little criminal, he has so many things to do AND he had to do it all by himself because he gave miss tuesday the day off so she could go on a date of her own and-
oh see! you've changed your mind now, no longer grumpy, because he was actually doing something kind for someone else
he really is a generous soul, emphasised by the fact that the reason he was late was because he was pulling off a perfect heist in a jewellery store uptown
so... did you save any leftovers for him? or is he going to have to return this beautiful ring/watch/necklace he bought you?
twojar
he's a curveball, like seriously give you whiplash kind of valentine's date
you think it's going to be a very standard evening, after all there you both are in black tie best, sipping expensive champagne, him talking about himself while you try hard not to stare at his tits
but when the meal is finished, he goes to pay in secret and then rushes you out into a car with tinted windows, and it's lucky he can get you so hot and flushed and eager that quickly, since it's not long before you arrive at the next spot
a strip club
which is? i mean not a traditional valentine's day date location, but it could be very hot
and he's booked one of the private rooms for you both, so at least you won't have to hide your blushing cheeks from the rest of the guests
but it becomes very obvious that there isn't a dancer coming to entertain you, and you worry that he expects you to get up there and put on a show, which would be a disaster because you haven't planned anything and-
"happy valentine's day"
ah. of course. why would the world's most self-absorbed man think you would want anything else for valentine's day than a private strip tease from him
and he's annoyingly very right in that assumption
btas
he absolutely does the most! and the most is often cheesy and dorky and therefor a million times more precious
the kind of guy who would buy you a rose for every day he's known you, regardless of how many days he has known you
the kind of guy who gets those little personalised lego figures made of you and him, or gets a plushie of him to give to you so he'll always be near you (and you know he's putting the personalised message in if he gets it from build a bear)
he knows your favourite starter, main and dessert are all from different restaurants, so he's made the reservations at all three with plenty of time for romantic rides in the back of cabs between each stop
it's important he has plenty of time to cover your neck with kisses, and for you to tell him how adorable he is
and then, because he is the cheesiest but in the best way, it's more than likely he'd use valentine's day as an excuse to propose to you, so he's down on one knee under the cloudy gotham night sky to ask you to marry him (and you're obviously not going to say no)
zero year
he doesn't do valentine's day, what a waste of time! he's nice enough to you the rest of the year, why should there be one day where he has to do something extra fo-
oh? oh! oh ok, if it means you have to do something for him too, then he's down for it
yes... that sounds like a wonderful excuse to get up to some mischief... (it's concerning how evil his little face looks when he's supposedly considering activities for the most romantic of holidays...)
although, why bother going out somewhere on a date, it's such a waste of time and effort
he has to keep his energy for more important things, and speaking of... he can think of very few ways to spend an evening that are better than taking you into the bedroom and sharing an exchange of giving for a few solid hours
no need to wear something nice, it's only going to get stripped off
no need to get him a gift, you'll be giving him plenty
and no need to eat something, he'll make sure you don't leave hungry, trust him

Tumblr media
oswald cobblepot:
first and foremost his love language is 100% gift giving
it would be both subtle and dramatic
subtle, because he would never ask directly; he'd listen
was there something you were talking about currently? or maybe something you've wanted forever? he would pick up on the slightest mention of it
but like i said, it would also be dramatic
an artist you've been listening to lately? he'll make sure you have every possible record on vinyl and cd, concert tickets, merch
a car that you've dreamed of for years? in your driveway, with every possible upgrade
growing up he didn't have much, so he wanted to make sure someone that he cares about never feels like that
although he's not really the one for physical intimacy, there are some small gestures he really loves
great example are forehead kisses - long evenings after tiring days, right by the fire places
he might not be huge with PDA, but everyone knows that you're involved with each other, making you untouchable
and when i say everyone, i mean everyone; his enemies, his allies, his staff
his worst fear is someone hurting you to hurt him; makes him extremely protective, making sure you're safe 24/7
your relationship is the definition of "private, but not secret"
Tumblr media
ed nygma:
although the pre and post riddler ed might have fair share of differences when it comes to dating, there's definitely a lot of similarities
for example, for ed you're always the number one priority, not matter what
the pre-riddler ed would cancel any plans for you (not that he had loads of those anyways lol)
it would take one phone call from you for him to drop everything and meet you somewhere
if ed liked you, he would have the hardest time telling you; even if you were involved with someone else, he would be your shoulder to cry on, no matter how much it broke his heart
once you got together he would need regular reassuring of how much he means to you
would be a combination of his own insecurities and how highly he thinks of you
both before and after you start dating, you smiling in his direction would be enough to make his day
post-riddler is much more confident, cares significantly less of what people think of him
but even given all of his confidence, his old insecurities still get the best of him
he would get very jealous at times
whenever he would suspect you could have feelings for someone else (which is a conclusion he makes way too rapidly) he would feel like the awkward and practically invisible technician working at the police station all over again
takes a ton of reassuring to for him to seem confident again- because deep down he will always feel like that to an extent
being his partner means being his best friend- it's such a special connection
he relies on your support so so much
although it took him a while to learn to come to you with his issues, you're definitely the best support system he's ever had, and he makes sure you know how much that means to him
Tumblr media
victor zsasz:
one word: TEASING
so so so much teasing
oddly enough, this might be the healthiest relationship on the list
he has an understanding of personal space and time
i mean don't get it wrong: he WILL show up unannounced in your living room in the middle of the night on a random tuesday, just chilling on the couch because "he missed you"
but if there is ever a situation where you tell him that you need space and time alone, he just respects it
he has a very laid back attitude towards you, but if the situation requires he will act very quick to protect you; whether you disapprove of his methods or not
even though like i said he gives you space and time if needed, he has his subtle ways of knowing whether you're staying safe and out of trouble
i can for sure see him with a fellow assassin, even, or maybe especially, working for a rival gang
business is business, and he doesn't see a reason why it should interfere with his personal life after work
and the constant competition is kind of fun and exciting to him, which is ironic, given the line of work
one time you were ordered by your bosses to take each other out, and for shits and giggles you even pretended to attempt it, but gave up easily just cause you couldn't take one another and this whole situation seriously
overall it's a very playful relationship of equal time teasing and strong sense of protection, on both sides
Tumblr media
jerome valeska:
the best word to describe the relationship with this man is 'rollercoaster'
with the highest of highs and lowest of lows
good moments make you feel on top of the worlds and bad moments make your stomach drop
no two days are the same with this guy
no surprise that he is very obsessive
the second he saw you and was utterly and completely fixated on you and you only
it was obsession at first sight for sure (bonus points if you met at arkham)
and you can't really blame yourself, he was very charming
just something completely captivating about him
although his attention is all over the place, he would make sure to always have a good look at you, even with the corner of his eye
he just needs you around 24/7
the respect for personal space and time? yeah don't really count on that
at a certain point there's some sort of addiction formed, where you can't really function without him either
say what you want about jerome, but his energy is absolutely infectious and sometimes you just need someone who will make you feel like you're on top of the world
another thing about him is that his obsessive sense of protection mostly extends to guarding you from the GCPD, but not really to a basic sense of safety
he will take you with him to all of his most dangerous heists, because he doesn't want you 'missing out on all the fun'
he regularly finds places to break into in the middle of the night, like theme parks and big malls, and just goes CRAZY
he is there to make any absurd wish of yours come true
if during the time where everyone just assumed he was dead you moved on with your life and god forbid found happiness with someone else- he is changing that the second he's back
Tumblr media
jeremiah valeska:
the jeremiah before the transformation was paranoid about absolutely everything
including your safety, mostly because of jerome
his childhood made him put up this shield around him and it wasn't easy to let you into his life - but once he did he shielded you even more than he ever did for himself
if it was up to him, you'd never leave his super-secure home/facility, because he's that worried
and many times he's begged you do to so
out of sheer sense of protectiveness over you
but staying in a windowless bunker is not really easy for many people
and he knows that he can't really argue you on that, so all he has left is worrying until you're back
you always were back, and he had to fight the urge to beg you not to ever leave again
the post-transformation jeremiah is also insanely protective- with the added effect of more confidence is slight obsessiveness
his obsessiveness would be much more subtle than one that his brother displayed - jeremiah would just always know where you are and who you're with
he would go to actual insane measures to protect you; he'd burn entire cities if it meant keeping you safe
both before and after the transformation he's not really the best at communicating his feelings, but his way of making up for it is acts of service - subtle before transformation and less subtle after the transformation
oddly enough, he also became a lot more openly romantic than before, with grand, dramatic gestures
not that he wasn't romantic before; just in a lot more shy and delicate way
one thing never changed - how much keeping you safe meant to him

Kalim, Jamil, Trey, Idia and Riddle with an s/o that gifts them a Promise Ring
..::..
Kalim Al-Asim
“Wow, I love rings! How’d you know??” He happily accepts it, not even letting you explain what its for before he puts it on.
You tell him its to symbolize your love for each other
“Oh wow, it has a special meaning to it too? This is one cool ring!”
Kalim’s happy to tell people about the lovely ring you gave him if they ever ask why he’s wearing it
He loses it sometimes, always swearing its not on purpose and that he should be less careless, but its usually quickly found
Jamil Viper
“A ring? Whats with the sudden gift?” He eyes it curiously.
You tell him its meant to symbolize your bond and promising to never betray each other
His eyebrow quirks a little on the betraying thing due to prior events, but he accepts it nonetheless
“Oh? Are you proposing to me?” He says with a smug, teasing grin
You slap his wrist (or merely blush-) and tell him that its not meant to be that..yet
Jamil takes good care of the ring, making sure it doesn’t rust and all. He doesn’t wear it everyday but most days he does
Riddle Rosehearts
“I’m not sure if the school permits wearing rings..”
When you explain to him what the ring’s for, he finds it a bit cheesy, since its not like he needs a ring to solidify you two’s relationship
He does find it a thoughtful gift though, and even gets a little ring box for it
Riddle doesn’t wear it to school, but he does wear it outside of school
He’s also a little embarrassed to wear it around his dormmates but if they ever question it, first he’ll give them an earful on not to be nosy and then one about how its your ring and they need to respect that and you or else he’ll off their head
Riddle would never lose it and even if he did he’s having the whole dorm search for it
Trey Clover
“Ahaha, I’m not one for jewelry much, but since it means so much to you, sure I’ll wear it.” Trey immediately puts the ring on.
When you tell him its meant to show you’re always with him, he can’t help but chuckle to mask his blush from you doing something so sweet
He takes extra good care of the ring, even shining it, its like a mini responsibility to him now
Trey doesn’t mind wearing it around people, most won’t ask why someone’s wearing something as small as a ring anyway
..Unless Ace and Deuce ask if he’s engaged, then he’ll have to come clean
Idia Shroud
“A-are you sure you’d wanna make such a hefty promise with..someone like me?”
You nod, having told him that the ring promises you’ll be together through tough times
“Well, it does look cool, thank you..” He timidly smiles at you.
He does mindlessly bite it sometimes and it becomes a habit
Idia wears it everyday, even to bed, he forgets to take it off
It isn’t like he comes out of his room much, so embarrassment from someone noticing it isn’t an issue for him

hello could I request some yandere capullo riddler headcanons?
anon, im going to kiss you on the mouth for requesting my very first riddler ask. YES of course you can have some headcanons
note: feel free to reblog my work! just give credit where credit is due :)
70s dad riddler yandere headcanons coming right up!
TW: kidnapping, general violence, light misogyny though reader is gn
Tumblr media
Yandere!Capullo!Riddler Headcanons
have you ever watched Labyrinth?
i make the connection because you will be kidnapped by a narcissistic freak who will put you through numerous 'tests' and 'challenges'
i feel like the typical standard for any riddler to have an obsession is that the object of their desires is also highly intelligent, though i also feel like with capullo riddler you would also have to be as physically attractive as him, in his opinion. think of gaston, but skinnier, socially awkward and highly intelligent
youre probably someone in a position of power. maybe youre an official, a detective, in forensics, etc. his initial goal is to embarrass you. he is back to his old tricks setting up some elaborate challenges. see? youre not as smart as you thought you - wait, you solved it?
the great riddler will not be bested by some lowly city imbecile!
his need to be better than everyone, including you, starts this game. he presents you will increasingly harder and more demanding challenges. at one point you probably have a bomb strapped to you.
the more puzzles and riddles you solve, the more he looks forward to these encounters. he eventually thinks that it may be because he's a loner and humans are naturally very social creatures, but this is dismissed quickly
he's not just a human! he's not like anyone else! he is the great edward nygma! the riddler!
then he finds himself making careless mistakes in everything he does. this should make him furious! it should...
suddenly, being captured isnt as bad anymore, he gets to see his 'game partner' as he's being booked in! you! he thinks nothing of this. just a little banter with someone who is almost as intelligent as himself
"ah, detective L/N! looking as sharp as ever! what did you think of our last game? ha, that hardly matters. its our next game that you should look forward to! imagine this..."
he is delusional in thinking that you enjoy his trials. you SOLVE them, because your life kind of depends on it. but this only spurs him on to make more! oh how you exhaust him. he slows down his intellectual assault on gotham and shifts more towards proving that you cannot possibly compare to him.
he's more so trying to reassure himself that he's the greatest
eventually one of the other rogues points this 'obsession' out to him as he's babbling about his next challenge for you (probably selina since she sees every opportunity to tease him)
"you know, ed, if i didnt know any better i would think that the 'great riddler' has a bit of a crush" followed by snickers and "woos!"
his face turns hot and red. this only spurs on the others more! for the first time, he doesnt know what to say. his mind is racing with explanations and excuses, but no words come out
he has been embarrassed before and it crushes him. he? the riddler? have feelings for you?
the more he sulks and ponders, the more he fears that it may be true. the sleepless nights wondering how you've solved everything. his giddiness when he sees his favorite player. the way his heart races when he speaks to you... the anger he feels when you speak to someone who isnt him. the jealousy of seeing you interact with the other rogues. the dejectedness of your disinterested attitude towards him
theres only one rational solution in his mind... to kidnap you!
you enjoy your time with him dont you? dont you hate sharing a city with knuckle-dragging baboons? dont you hate being surrounded by millions of people who dont see you for what you truly are?? a genius... just like him
his end goal is to convince you that you two really arent that dissimilar, that you are alike in more ways that you can comprehend. that you need him with you! like he needs you with him
his darling Y/N just needs a strong, intelligent man such as he to SHOW them that they would be best suited together.... no matter how long it takes, how many puzzles they go through and how many people will be exterminated if they get in the way
"my dearest, surely someone as intellectually gifted as you can understand? we are two of the same. you need me ~"

𝐄𝐝𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐍𝐲𝐠𝐦𝐚 𝐇𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐀 𝐂𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐡 𝐎𝐧 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐖𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐈𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞
↳ warnings: none
↳ song: something for your m.i.n.d— superorganism
masterlist | commissions | carrd
• Everyone's seen how he acted around Kristen before you started frequenting the GCPD
• To most of the precinct, Edward's a fidgety, overzealous guy, with a smile border lining on creepy. He's not the best at socializing, and his lack of understanding boundaries leave him with nearly zero friends
• So when you showed up with that sharp gaze of yours, at least attempting to supply him with the answer to one of his riddles, he knew he had to have you
• As a friend, of course. What else could he possibly mean by that.
• Whether you work at the precinct with him, or just happen to show up there more than considered normal, Ed can't help but hault his day just to talk to you. And he always opens with a riddle. One that he cooked up laying in his bed at night especially for you
• "My life is measured in hours and I serve you by expiring. I'm quick when I'm thin and slow when I'm fat. The wind is my enemy. What am I?" He smiles at you over the rim of his glasses, wringing his hands expectantly
• "Hey to you too, Nygma." You don't even have to look up to know that he's smiling
• "Please. Call me Ed. Do you give up?"
• "As if. Hit me with it again, would you?"
• I'm begging you. Do some kintec type puzzles with him. You will literally win his love and affection on the spot. Even if it's just a mini rubic's cube attached to a key ring; Ed is absolutely enamored with you the moment you pull it out
• It takes him a while to fully realize that he has developed sort of a thing for you. It most likely takes the help of his alter ego to flip the switch in his brain once and for all; something he doesn't appreciate. Especially considering the lack of filter he has when it comes to Ed's romance life
• After all a few months ago, the only one he had eyes for made fun of him in her spare time. Now that he has someone who genuinely wants to know about his day? It's all over for the poor guy
• If Ed ever finds out that you talk about him to other people—in a positive light, of course—he wont stop smiling for days. It gets to a point where even Jim notices and shakes his head, glad to see that forensics scientist is looking happy
• Leaves more than just verbal riddles for you to solve. That odd shaped box that you don't remember putting in your bag? That slip of paper written in a coded message? Edwards by your side the next time you show up, asking if you were able to solve it
• Lee probably knows about his crush on this mysterious figure. She can't help but notice that Edward's a little happier than he should be while digging through a dead guys sternum for a bullet
• Definitely unleashes a soft interrogation on him, only stopping once his ears are a flaming red and he cant look her in the eyes
• When she finally meets you for the first time, she can't help but smile at you knowingly while Ed sweats bullets in the background
• "So you're Nygma's friend huh? He talks about you a lot."
• "Ed?" You draw his name out and raise an eyebrow slowly, leaning to the left to peer over Lee's shoulder quizzically
• "I've suddenly recalled, uh, a uhm, experiment that I uh. Yeah. Bye."
• "Sigh. And he didn't even give me a riddle this time."
• "Oh you two really are just perfect."
• "I have no idea what your talking about."

I LOVE how you write the Riddler, really soft for a yandere. If you're willing, could you please from the alphabet do D, E and I for him? I'm starving,,, thank you.
Thank you, I'm so glad you like it! Soft yanderes are my favorite <3 hope you like these ^^
---
D - Depraved: Does your yandere have a shrine? (If so, what's on it?)
I don't think Ed is really the type to have a dedicated shrine, though I do think he'd have keepsakes of yours around his work area or on his person. Pictures of you, writings or doodles you may have made that he was able to snatch up (maybe even saved out of the trash), pieces of clothing that he was able to cut or rip off… You know, normal stuff! Little things to sate him while he couldn't be with you.
I can also see him considering the crimes he committed in your names as a sort of ‘shrine to your love’.
E - Erratic: How unpredictable are they? How quick are mood changes?
Ed prefers sticking to plans when it comes to his crimes, but he can be prone to unpredictability when it comes to social interactions, typically. He can be prone to paranoia and reading into things. Inconsequential words or even a change in tone or expression could be suddenly seen as slights or insults against The Riddler, which can lead to explosions of anger and accusations of betrayal towards civilians, the authorities, Batman, or in the latter case, his hired help. 
But with you, Riddler feels at ease. Any paranoia is soothed by your presence. With you, he feels so at ease. So right. His equal. His match. His soulmate! Any desperate need for validation is quelled by you. Even if you argue and fight with him, he'd know it's not anything you have against him - well, not really. It's not your fault you've been lied to! You'll understand that you and he were meant to be after he helps you unlearn all the horrible things the idiots of this city have force-fed you.
After all, if you weren't perfect for one another, why did he feel so safe and secure with you?
I - Intimacy: How intimate are they with their darling?
Ed is so touch-starved it's not even funny. He never wanted to be separated from you! Be prepared to be basically smothered in affection. Hugging, cuddling, nuzzling, smothering you in kisses - everything he's missed out on, he wants to finally make up for. All his time spent waiting for the perfect partner is finally worth it now that you're here! And as stated above, he won't get angry if you don't reciprocate. You're just confused, it's okay. 
Any attempts at fighting him or cursing him out will just lead to him cooing to you condescendingly as he ties you up in restraints so you can calm down… Though, he may not be able to hold back from being affectionate before you're done with your time-out. He just adored you so much! You know, exposure therapy is a very effective treatment for aversions, and this would be the perfect opportunity to show how wrong all those fools in this cesspool of a city were.

can you write something like this please umm: Edward nashton doesn't know what snowball fighting is. Because in orphanage doesn't let them do it. And reader notices it and they are having a snowball fight. ( Sorry for my bad English, I'm kind of new :(()
I love this idea!! Hope this was what you wanted, I'm not that good at writing so 😬 and I don't mind your english <333
Both of you were walking down the streets when it was snowing
You got nostalgic about it and started talking about all the things you used to do every christmas
Then you mentioned snowball fighting and he was confused as hell
"You- you fight the snow?? Like punch it??"
"Oh uh, no, you grab a bunch of snow on the ground with both of your hands and clump it together to form a ball shape, and then—you know, you throw it at each other. You've never done this at the orphanage with other kids? Or ever?"
You felt sad for him when he said they never let kids play
So you made it your life's mission to give this man all the happiness he deserves
You taught him
And when he finally got it, you initiated a snowball fight and he began making large snowballs to throw back at you
He built a giant snow wall but you managed to surprise him and tackle his torso
You were both laughing and seeing him smile made your heart warm
