Chapter Text
in retrospect, levi should’ve known that he was in over his head. because there he stood in front of a very angry batman and his little robin. but levi didn't falter because things still could go in his favor because after all, he has his harley quinn this time (levi thought to himself about how lucky he is to truly have him and how different he was from everyone else). they were at Ace Chemicals and the bridge and the shaky chemicals below him, and fuck why did it have to be here? because all he can think about was the harsh words from a even harsher past. the horrible voices and memories clung to him begging him, asking for punishment-
levi grinned tightly and shoved his hands into his pockets. they just needed to restrain batman and robin for a little while. they just needed this plan to work. everything else in his messy brain could wait. he'd be okay, probably.
“did ya miss me bats?” levi said the high level of cockiness was evident in his voice. it wasn't shocking really, that he was so excited and cocky. but if eren didn’t hurry up...no he wasn't gonna think like that. eren will be on time. although Levi had to wonder if eren was ready for this. he hadn't killed anyone before and sure he was somewhat mad (he had to want so valiantly to join his ‘joker gang’) but levi didn’t know if he could do what was necessary in the time of need. “joker, you are sick. we can help you-
“help me?! you can't save everyone batty-dear. you'll find that out soon enough I suppose.” levi laughed and giggled until his sides hurt as a running eren came towards them. finally.
“ma’am, if he is holding you hostage, we can help you-”batman spoke deeply, voice throaty and loud and deep and dark. that had to fucking hurt his vocal cords to talk like that.
how particular...quinn, my love?” levi turned his head to face his eren standing there, looking beautiful as usual. did he mind being called a girl? he certainly was beautiful like one yet handsome in the soft way of a broken widower. and fuck, levi was fucked because eren so so fucking beautiful and he definitely shouldn't be this infatuated with him.
“yes, my dear?” eren smiled softly and glanced at levi's smirking face. It was so different from the permanent frown that’s always on his face at the park. if eren was still a doctor he’d think that levi had a personality disorder but he promised not to psychoanalyze everyone at the madhouse so he bit his tongue.
but fuck, eren thought as levi glanced back at him from batman, he's so handsome.
“Are you ready?”
“Definitely.”
eren wasn't the most coordinated person (and he didn’t know how to fight really, he just joined a gang mind you, he didn't think they'd plan such a thing so soon.) but eren grabbed the little bird, part of his felt bad as he did so, because the way batman screamed in horror was almost enough to make eren want to put the child down and learn them there but why did he laugh at batman's horrified screams? (he was losing his fucking mind and the worst part was that he was okay it.)
robin was very light.
eren ran with them in his hand and he was going to their car. the plan was to take robin torture for little bit and drop them off at somewhere where they would be found. the biggest mystery is that no one really knows if robin is a boy or girl. I think the child is a girl based off of the soft feminine face and smooth jawline.
eren quickly approached a light green convertible with the roof down. he laughed in relief as everything was going to plan. levi was close behind him, eren could hear his thin laughs and with his heavy breathing. eren threw robin in the trunk and quickly took their weapons and then tied them tightly. In the front seat sat Ridler in tan shorts and a hawaiian shirt, his mask and a green sun hat with question marks all on it. eren sighed when he saw the man was doing crossword puzzles and was chatting with his wife about different poisons. his wife wore a green sundress and a tan floppy hat and dark shades.
eren thought robin could have put up more of a fight.
eren sat in the back with levi and stared at him slightly. he admitted it now, Levi was so gorgeous and for the first time since they met Eren smiled as he heard Levi laugh ( the way the corners of his mouth turned up slightly as he grinned and the sounds of his voice quietly laughed like eren said a joke, like the laugh was for only him to hear) The wind blew in their faces and all of them laughed and laughed as the building exploded behind them.
;
eren thought it was sick how he decidedly was chosen to torture the little robin. He didn't complain though because deep down he knew he could do it.
That’s what scared him the most about this whole thing.
The girl sat in front of Eren and the others in a secret room in the far left side of the madhouse (they had left her to undress herself and found out based off of her clothes and that she was definitely a girl). This room though-it reeked of dried and smelled like sweat and tears. eren knew this wouldn't be his last using this room and he i'm sick, i'm sick, i'm sick, i'm sick, I'm sick, i'm sick, i'm sick, i'm sick, eren thought fervently as he grabbed the knife and began carving the girl up.

she was cold and she couldn’t remember where the fuck she was or even who the fuck she was. all she knew was she had possibly been drugged by a boy with pink and blue highlights (or maybe a girl? the person had such a beautiful face, soft hands and a touch of a mother, so distracting that she couldn’t really remember the gender of the man or woman especially with the way it all fuzzed together in her mind.)He had also taken something off her face (sunglasses maybe? Or a mask? ), and when he did so he screamed and pushed her there was a shorter hair and clown makeup in a purple suit that grabbed the boy and tried to calm him down (normally she'd be more offended by that - but she decided that she didn't care that much since the man literally drugged her, but she probably looked a mess and would have screamed if she saw her scarred and bloody face.)
she couldn’t tell you really how or when and why she was covered in bandages in front of walmart (much less why she was standing in the parking lot in short-shorts with a tank top while it was nonetheless. She was also covered in bandages and was bleeding a little to much) all she knew was she apparently was someone definitely someone important because not even seconds later she was surrounded by the police and what looked like paparazzi. she was so terrified but next thing she knew was that she was falling and blacking out.

everything hurts.
was he first thought she woke up. she looked up and saw a familiar ceiling. she looked to her left and saw two men sleeping. she immediately recognized them.
"dad?" she croaked out. he throat was dry and her lips were cracked. the shorter man with sandy blond hair and a gruff face looked up at her, reilf very clearly flooding oto his face he woke up the tall man with black hair and slender frame and he immediately called for "Geoffrey" to her.
she smiled softly until the boy with pink and blue highlights flashed through her mind again.
eren. she thought as she glared at the ceiling. how are you still alive?
