Unburied!riddler - Tumblr Posts
I like to imagine when there's like playdates with the scarecrows and riddlers we've got them on leashes and they're socializing like dogs LMAO
Like I'm over here here and I've got Nolanverse and fear state with leashes Like "yeah man they don't bite, they're friendly" I am lying they do bite and they bite hard LMAO
As I said, playdates are my forte.
When you sent me this, I was overjoyed.
Bless you for giving me this evil task 💙
I'm curious the dynamics between all of them, who are besties wit each other and who absolutely despises one another
Alright, let's break it down.
Firstly, I wouldn't say that any of them hate each other. Annoy to the point of insanity, sure, but at the end of the day, they're all still Riddlers. No one else in the world understands what it's like to be them.
Now that that's out of the way, Gotham, Dano, and YJ will beat ZY senseless because he is annoying and an absolute jackass, just like any group of brothers would.
Dano and YJ are nearly inseparable. They both know what it's like to be overlooked, not just in intelligence and accolade, but as a person. So, they lift each other up and are all the better for it.
Gotham is the kid-wrangler. He's one of the kids, but he's not? Like the other kids are unpredictable, but Gotham functions like clockwork.
Believe it or not, ZY isn't actually trying to make anyone angry. He's just an absolute attention whore compared to the rest of the gang, and it really shows. But it's all just to get a reaction, like most stuff he does.
Now, the babyiest of babies: Unburied. Like, he's not expected to do anything but be silly, and somehow everyone loves him for it. He's just a little guy.
Arkham, BTAS, and BTAA honestly don't care much what the kids do, as long as they aren't breaking shit or creating a national crisis. Arkham keeps to his workshop and robots, BTAS is keeping the party rolling, and BTAA is busy planning his next amazing heist. They generally don't fight, and are more likely to be diplomatic. Unless, it's ZY.
Finally, let it be said. Telltale doesn't hate any of them. He's just got that classic Riddler complex of 'everyone is an idiot except me'. When looking through the lense of age, though, it makes his own past faults and successes so much more apparent. He sees himself in every single one of them, in a way that he may not be entirely comfortable with. However, again, in classic Riddler fashion, he can't let any of them see his true self, have to keep up the illusion.
So, he'll deflect with sarcasm, cruelty, and witty quips, hoping they get a better ending.
phew.
get it, got it, good.
Has anyone asked what fem!riddlers would look like?
This is an excellent question and right up my alley, pal.
btw I am 100% convinced that ZY would perm their hair.
DOES EDWARD THE DOG EXIST IN YOUR RIDDLEVERSE
he does now
what's the preferred energy drink/gatorade/coffee flavor of each Riddler, or which category do they each prefer?
Gotta stay hydrated when you're busying conquering the world.
Unburied - Coffee, something sweet like a mocha frappuccino
ZY - Energy drink (and by energy drink I mean water that's been flavored with a power mix containing electrolytes, vitamins, etc.)
Dano - He drinks those instant caffeine shots, 5 Hour Energy and whatnot. Something that's very likely to send him into cardiac arrest one day.
YJ - Gatorade, and his preferred flavors are blue and green.
Gotham - Coffee and, when he can get it, tea. Three sugars, please and thank you.
BTAA - He's got an espresso machine that is always on and always working just as hard as he is.
Arkham - Stale coffee that's been sitting on his workbench for at least two days, but there's still some in there so he might as well drink it.
BTAS - Coffee and only coffe. Get that gross leaf water out of here.
Telltale - Tea and only tea. Get that gross bean water out of here.
