   Summary

   Jervis Tetch is a neurologist at Wayne Tech. He has a stable job, a reliable income, and a habit to isolate himself. With nothing but his adoration for Wonderland to rattle to his rats with, the man is slowly going insane. He knows that. He doesn't entirely fight it because, really, what good man goes insane? Encouraged by his co-worker Alice Pleasance, Jervis finds himself giving talks about his technology at the local university in preparation for the visit (from his employer no less) to his department.
   Meeting the professor of fear, Dr. Jonathan Crane, Jervis can't help but be in awe. Truly, the man is a sight. And now, he can't help but be drawn to him and his extravagant confidence. Talk after talk, Jervis finds himself leaning on the man more though little does he know what Jonathan is truly made of: Toxicity.

   An embodiment of "I can make him worse" in a fic
   (Also for the record: Jonathan isn't entirely a toxic piece of trash - he's got his good qualities about him *See how he treats Harley while being fucking arrested (The "Good evening, Child" gets me, man)
