Summary
Something's different. It’s pointless to name it since there is no word for it anyway, at least not in his fixed vocabulary, but it makes Jerome's blood boil and his brain go wild. Almost like he's about to detonate a bomb that will paralyze Gotham's entire subway system.
When he gives in to this unknown urge and takes Bruce's face into his gloved hands, stroking the brushed flesh and peeling off white dust on leather, he actually does. The pulse of the city trembles under his fingers, and it looks like it’s about to bite. Too bad Jerome has never been fan enough of muzzles to actually care if he gets rabies or not.Bookmarked by ShardsOfGlass99

Summary
Bruce Wayne loves Jerome like a dumpster fire.
At least that's what Jerome says. And he gets angry, unbearably, comically angry, when Bruce says otherwise.

Summary
"Putting honey in the lion’s mouth, Brucie?“ Jerome’s voice runs warm behind Bruce‘s ear. It rolls over his neck and close to his spine like a solemn but ardent reminder of death. "It’ll eat you up. It eats everything.“ He pauses, years caught in one halt of breath. “It ate me.“
It‘s a trap. Bruce should know better than to encourage him. He should take measures now, hit Jerome in the unprotected pit of his stomach and flee while he tumbles over in pain since otherwise he’ll never leave this circle of hate and sickened obsession they’ve built with their fists and half-deaths. But he can‘t find no reason to. He doesn‘t want to dig that deep. For once in his life, he doesn‘t want to strive for being any better than he actually is.He’s the young hero Gotham sets its hopes on, and Jerome is a murderer who’s lost the wheel ages ago. Outdated roles for an outdated story.
'What a terrible, terrific match we make', he muses, yanks Jerome back on his hair and kisses him with all the self-disgust and desperation he can muster. 'We’ll never get along. We‘ll destroy each other, and call it love.'
But when Jerome kisses back, starved and angry, Bruce knows that it won‘t matter. He already made the choice.

Summary
Above all else, Jerome Valeska wants three things: anarchy for Gotham City, his brother destroyed, and Bruce Wayne dead by his hands.
Bruce Wayne just wants to forget.
Professionally, this is known as a conflict of interests.
