36 sparksChapter 1: Joker Loves Messing With Lex
Based on panels of different comics I've seen part of online but haven't actually read.
Joker, upon finding out that Lex had a baby with Superman: Now see, Lexie, dis is da OPPOSITE of movin' on.
Lex: Shut. Up.
Joker: I mean, people call me obsessive, but at least I never pulled a Talia on Batsy...
Lex: A what?
Joker: Don't tell me ya haven't met Talia yet! Don't worry, I'll introduce ya.
And thus the 'I Mixed My DNA With That Of My Mortal Enemy In A Convoluted Plan To Destroy Them And Also Maybe Because Of A Crush' support group was born.
"Would you stop goofing around?" Lex complained. He watched Joker spin wildly around his lab in an office chair, the Gothamite Rogue uncaring to all the very fragile yet brilliant projects stored there. "We have work to do."
"Noooo, ya have work ta do." Joker pouted, thankfully pausing in his destructive game. Lex leaned down over a worktable to resume building his latest weapon while the other continued. "Borin' techie stuff dat has nothin' ta do wit' chemicals or fun or laughter. My bit comes later, so what's wrong wit' havin' some fun now?"
"Have your 'fun' quieter," Lex ordered. "I am trying to concentrate on the very complicated process of creating something powerful enough to beat the so-called 'Man Of Steel'; I will tolerate no distractions."
"...isn't Supes wit' dat reporter lady now?"
Lex's hand clenched, nearly breaking a vital component of the machine in front of him. Why did people keep bringing up that damned Ms. Lane?! "Yes. Your point?" he asked, coldly and firmly.
"Ya know, just... obsessing over yer ex isn't all dat healthy," Joker tutted. He then kicked a wall and sent his office chair spinning across the lab.
"Ignoring everything else that is wrong with that sentence," Lex growled, looking up from his work to glare at the clown, "what in the world makes you think that you, of all people, are qualified to give advice on what's healthy?"
"Oh, dat's simple." Joker shrugged, grinning. "I'm not!" He pushed off a table, knocking down various expensive pieces of equipment, to launch himself spinning back to the wall. "Wheeee!"
Lex groaned and ran a hand down his face, already looking forward to the end of this particular team-up. He really should invest in clown-sized shock collars...

I do! and yeah no wonder she snapped, although... i suppose it's gotham, being overly friendly would seem like a villian in the making to folks who cover themselves in barbwire.
You do what?
I'm glad you liked the story 😊😁
Oh, i wanna learn more about Maddie's fate! If that offers still on the table of course.
Ah! Yes, okay, so she gets transferred to Arkham and ends up in group therapy with others who've gone down the supervillain path for similar though not quite the same reasons as her. They almost drive their therapist insane, but said therapist ends up proving that one can go through bad situations and still choose to do good. It ends on a hopeful note with the group healing together, and Maddie finally having a social circle where she can feel accepted again.
That's what I planned, anyways. I'm glad you liked what I wrote, and I hope you like where I planned to take it 😁
Oh! That's great! I love Happy ending so I very much do enjoy where you planned to take it. Thanks for sharing~!
😊
OMG, Johnny, what did you DO? 😂

Sorry, I don't like connecting with strangers online.
Nora: I LOVE THEM.
Mr Freeze, grinning from ear to ear and actually emoting for the first time in years: I thought you might. That's why I collected them for you!

Hello. I'm sorry, but I've gotten a LOT of comments like this. If you're legitimate, ignore this, but:
If you're a scammer, leave me alone. I have zero interest in paying someone to draw anything from any of my fics. I'm an artist and plan to slowly illustrate all of my own fics over years. And I don't connect with anyone online unless I know them in real life. I have gotten so many comments like this, I'm fairly certain it's all actually from the same person/group/whatever. To reiterate,
LEAVE ME ALONE.
