Work Text:
No one appreciates the work Ed puts in his heists. He shows up looking his best, doing his best, only to have the internet call him a chatty puzzle twink.
They don’t know how much thought goes into each and every riddle. They don’t know how many nights he’d work through to prepare for any possible puzzle he’d need to pull out to keep Batman from throwing him in Arkham. He was a genius, a man so ahead for the time that they deemed him mad. But he’s not mad! Far from it! Would a mad man skip out on a week of sleep to write a banger riddle? No! A smart man would.
A smart man who lost the ability to feel in his left hand from writing so many terrible idea, good thing this bank heist will be well worth it.
How does Edward Nygma function as a person while having an abysmal sleep schedule? A riddle without a real answer.
