    Summary

    "The fine hairs at the back of his neck stood up straight as he slowly looked over his shoulder, all of his insides dropping down to the floor as soon as his eyes fell upon neon umbrellas shining boastfully on the walls, throwing a blue glow onto people’s intoxicated faces. Suddenly, he knew exactly where he was. The Iceberg Lounge." — an alternative universe where the Gotham as we know it is twisted in such a way that Ed and Riddler always remain separate people in a rather complicated relationship with each other, while in the midst of Ed's internal struggles to cope with murdering Officer Dougherty, he finds himself in the middle of the Iceberg Lounge, faced with the most powerful man in the city.

    Summary

    Down a perfectly ordinary alleyway in Gotham City there lies a perfectly ordinary black door, set inconspicuously in a dark outline of porous, mossy brick. Knock, and you will be met with a pair of eyes, staring wordlessly through a thin gap as they await the correct words.

    Summary

    Time heals all wounds. The Riddler is tired of waiting for Ed to get on with it already.

    Weirdly cute and chaotic, The Riddler takes over Ed and sets Ed and Oswald on a (possibly deadly) date to work things out…

    A little off-canon - set shortly after the Sofia storyline but Ed is still in control (no Nygmakins, Oswald has taken back his kingdom, etc.)
