Questions with the cast of LOVE + FEAR

Question #1: WOULD YOU RATHER BE STRANDED ON A DESERTED ISLAND WITH POISON IVY OR JOHN CONSTANTINE?

Raven & Poison Ivy

Rachel Roth: You all the way. 

Poison Ivy: Aww. I think we’d have a lot of fun in that scenario.

Rachel Roth: I know! It would be like a vacation, it's the perfect people getaway.

Poison Ivy: We could make Totoro umbrellas and drink out of coconuts. And be around zero human beings at all whatsoever.

Rachel Roth: There’s no way I’d be stranded on a deserted island with John ever again. Last time that happened, he would not stop freaking out when we ran out of rum. 

 

John Constantine & Harley Quinn

John Constantine: I choose my boyfriend, obviously. Who deserves more screen time in this story. 

Harley Quinn: And I choose my girlfriend, obviously. Because she is the only person in the world I need to be happy. And we deserve more screen time together in this story. 

John Constantine & Harley Quinn: *high five*

 

Superboy & Robin

Conner Kent: Think I’d go with Constantine. He could teleport us off at any time, and he's just so entertaining.

Damian Wayne: Neither. They’re both terrible choices.

Conner Kent: Then all cards on the table: who would you go with?

Damian Wayne: Raven. We could leave at any time, she always carries books for entertainment. Her magic is great for blocking harmful UV rays.

Conner Kent: Of course, she’d be the perfect choice.

 

Cyborg & Shazam

Billy Batson: Ivy. Hands down. We could make a raft out of vines and those cool flower crowns…

Victor Stone: I'm a living machine. And Ivy’s an eco-terrorist. She would probably kill me, so I’d go with Constantine. 

Billy Batson: Coward. I heard she loves Nascar, you guys could talk cars all day.

Victor Stone: Poison Ivy likes Nascar? No way.

Billy Batson: Yes way.

 

Zatanna & King Shark

Nanaue: John, obviously. He looks so sexy in sunset lighting!

Zatanna Zatara: I am so happy John finally found someone who made him happy. And by that, I mean someone that will put up with his shit.

Nanaue: Oh, that's so sweet of you to say, Zee! I must say, it is nice that you care so much about John.

Zatanna Zatara: Well, yeah. I mean, before we went out, we were friends. Our friendship is great. That's what works for us. We’re like Jerry and Elaine from Seinfeld

Nanaue: And now look at us: just like Modern Family, where I'm played by the flamboyant Eric Stonestreet and you are the beautiful Sofia Vergara.

Zatanna Zatara: I love our friendship!

Nanaue: Me too! 

 

Superboy & Robin

Conner Kent: We actually have a lot more in common than people think. We both like dogs—

Damian Wayne: and share a mild distaste of Clark.

Conner Kent: Cannot stand that guy. Oh, and we’re both the leaders of Raven’s fanbase. She is SO underrated.

Damian Wayne: And misunderstood.

Two Hours Later—

Conner Kent: And she’s so cute and sweet sometimes—

Damian Wayne: She’s so insightful and witty. Seriously, Raven is one of the smartest members of the Titans. 

Conner Kent: She reads so many books.

 

Question #2: NAME ALL THE ROBINS

 

Harley Quinn & John Constantine

Harley Quinn: It's all about the Robins, isn't it?

John Constantine: Of course it is. Well, there’s the Baby Bat.

Harley Quinn: He's more like a chihuahua. 

John Constantine: He's so high maintenance. There’s always a butler nearby, waiting on him hand and foot. Holding his juice boxes.

Harley Quinn: Yeah, he gets really pissy when he doesn't get his juice box. 

 

Raven & Robin

Rachel Roth: All the Robins, okay...there’s you—

Damian Wayne: the most competent one.

Rachel Roth: You are, but I always thought of you as the cute one. 

Damian Wayne: …*blushing & avoiding eye contact*

Rachel Roth: There’s also Dick, who’s Nightwing. Wasn't there a girl as Robin at some point? What was her name?

 

Poison Ivy & Zatanna

Zatanna Zatara: You’re up to bat—ha, pun intended—because I don't know anything about those guys. 

Poison Ivy: Okay, I got this. I’ve seen all the Robins go through puberty, let’s see here…*counts on fingers* there's the blue one that has a really nice ass. The other one died, and was really snarky about it. And there’s the one who has coffee running through his veins instead of blood. Oh, and the blonde chick with zero chill.



Question #3: TEAM DAMIAN OR TEAM CONNER?

Superman & Batman

Bruce Wayne: You're really asking us that question?

Clark Kent: I think it’d be nice to have Raven as a daughter in-law. 

Bruce Wayne: You can't have her, Kent. She’s too cool. And she fits our aesthetic better.

Clark Kent: You’re Batman: you literally adopt everybody. You tried to adopt Barry once. And you already have Kory, you can't take Raven, too!

Bruce Wayne: She’s already hitting it off with our villains.

Clark Kent: Raven and Luthor could get along; they both meditate and share a genuine disgust towards people.

Bruce Wayne: I can already hear the future screams ringing out from that scenario. 

 

Nightwing & Starfire

Dick Grayson: Yeah, Damian’s just a more decent human being around Rachel, so...you know. 

Koriand'r: You know, if I married you, and Raven married Damian, we could both have a double wedding AND we’d be sister in-laws. *gasps* We could take one of those family photos on the beach together, where we’re all in the white shirts and denim and we’re jumping! Wouldn't that be so amazing? 

 

Raven & Superboy

Rachel Roth: Um…

Conner Kent: You're really being put on the spot here.

Rachel Roth: I am

Conner Kent: I can make a suggestion, if you like, milady.

Rachel Roth: Thanks...milord? *shakes head and bites back a smile*

 

Poison Ivy & Zatanna

Poison Ivy: Ugh, it's such a hard decision! Raven and Robin have so much in common—and if Raven started dating him, she could stay in Gotham more. But Superboy has a much sweeter personality.

Zatanna Zatara: I know! And they’re both so good-looking.

Poison Ivy: Oh yeah, they’re heart throbs.

Zatanna Zatara: If I were a teenage girl, I would probably be obsessed with them.

Poison Ivy: Creepy, but relatable. Who would you choose, then?

Zatanna Zatara: Oh boy. Um...I think I would go with Damian. He’s so dark and mysterious. And Raven told me that he lets her cut bagels with his samurai swords.

Poison Ivy: He's a keeper.

Zatanna Zatara: Yep. Plus Conner’s advanced hearing would make me feel so uncomfortable. What if he hears me crunching on potato chips a room over or something? 

Poison Ivy: I don't think I could date someone who could hear everything. 

 

Harley Quinn & John Constantine

John Constantine: Superboy. He'll be easier to kill if he breaks my kid’s heart.

Harley Quinn: Aww. Dad goals. 

John Constantine: And he’s nice and all...also it would really piss off Clarky to have a closer relationship with me. 

Harley Quinn: So, basically, Team Superboy for revenge and spite. I LOVE it! 

 

Cyborg & Shazam

Billy Batson: Team Jacob :D

Victor Stone: Dude. No. 

 

Beast Boy & Blue Beetle

Garfield Logan: You know, I actually used to have a HUGE crush on Raven.

Jaime Reyes: Seriously? Wow, it's hard to imagine the two of you together. Is this the hidden ship? It would be super weird if, after all of this, she ended up with you.

Garfield Logan: HAHAHAHAHAHA......yeah.
