And never mind that courts always have the option of prosecuting someone under 18 as an adult -- a recent homicide around here was, the police say, committed by a 15 year old, and she's being charged as an adult for it.
(At least, that's an option in the US. I can't access either the story or the author's bio, is Quizilla a must-log-in site?)
I don't even. . .
Although I never have gotten how people could fall in love with the Joker.
Just when I thought it would be safe for me to go back to an old favourite fandom of mine (oh, Bruce and Dick, how I missed you - you, too, Jason, you crazy, homocidal middle child, you), stuff like this pops up. Then again, it is the internet. =-=; I should be expecting more badfics like these.
Good luck to whoever takes these.
Batman comic verse? Can I stake a claim on the second one. I think that's actually just the kind fic I've been looking for.
Actually, that's not comicverse is it? I thought from the description of the other villains it would be. Still, I'd be happy to kill it nonetheless. And Sweet Holy Moly, what is up with the chapter layout? Get past Chapter Four and you have to search for the other chapters in her profile.
Haven't read the first fic yet (and I've mainly watched only a couple of the Batman movies) but the second one- ugh. Her 'bio' says that she's 18 and yet she didn't get sent to prison for two homicides because she was a juvenile? There's some sort of failed logic in there, if there was any logic at all. And frankly hair that's not even to one's hips is a pain to manage; how the heck would you be able to deal with hair to one's knees? (And is the whole Harley thing canon?) I'm... just going to stop commenting on that one. Ugh.
My inclination is to say that it's to do with the fact that she's such a big Joker fan - she claims to have committed serious crimes because she feels that makes her more like him, and then she needs a reason she got away with it. Plus, doesn't it make her extra evil that she committed homicide when she was (legally) a child?
That's my read on it, anyway...
