Chapter 2
This city… is so ridiculous.
The rich parade around while the poor die in alleys as their children watch. It’s disgusting.

Eros growled and smoothed out his hair. Sure he couldn’t change that aspect of the city, but he could certainly take a few of the bad guys making it worse on everyone out.
They all want to rule by fear, some more than others, but LoveBug’ll make them taste their own medicine.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZc0zxOQXnJ
As he was pondering just how to do that, he looked at the clock.
Shoot, it’s about time for me to stream; at least, I can get a two for one, help the city and make some money.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaAQBGT9fo
He stretched out his back earning a ‘pop’ as he stood up and turned off the TV. He went and got his gear and headed out.

“Hello Chat! Welcome to another LoveBug stream! This time we’ll be working the Diamond Heights! I know, I know, the rich part of town? Sounds like I’m getting soft. But crime can happen ANYWHERE!”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOCz3MAexq
He laughed at his chat while he scanned the area with his HUD highlighting anything, including facial scans. One gave him a pop up.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigX63F5P5s
“Oh, Chat? Do you see what I see? One Condiment King wearing one hell of a baggy trench coat? Let’s see where he goes.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2TdMoTUiJ
He watched and followed the ‘villain’ into the local mall.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAecZ2eHvKb
“Chat, don’t be alarmed but I think he’s about to cheese someone, and well, food allergies are serious. Better go tell him.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEqF3zkIVg
He arrived and saw said man starting his long drawn out spiel. Most people were just walking around him and there wasn’t much rush to take him down…
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GuIEzfnwa
LoveBug stared at the guy in disbelief.
This guy should really keep his day job…Better put a stop to it.

LoveBug snapped a selfie of himself and Mayo before the defeated man was placed in a squad car and taken away.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaAgml230I
“Well chat, that wasn’t really anything to write home about huh? But don’t take him lightly. He could have really hurt someone!”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrvNlL2rDY
He couldn’t stop himself from letting out a chuckle but addressing his chat again.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdMuKvHLEQ
“Well folks, I know that this wasn’t the big fight that you all crave but I think we had a great day of patrolling! Don’t forget that my next stream is going to be on Friday this week! And let’s find someone to raid before I sign off! Get those LoveBug emotes ready!”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QvoqAIGxT
He easily found someone to raid and chatted with them a bit before hopping offline. He was quite a bit away from his apartment and had some shopping to do before the day was over so he headed back towards the cheaper part of town. However, something quite flashy caught his eye before he removed his outfit.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYiZDT9KYE
A hot rod colored purple and green; there’s only one person in Gotham that would own a car like that: The Joker.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmW82TNkvQw
It’s almost a shame I ended the stream early. Chat would have loved to see this. Oh well.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8gVpn1wpW
He shrugged to himself before following the car. On one of its turns, LoveBug landed on the top before sliding into the car through the open window and into a seat next to the prince of crime.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQveZQL8sr
“Heya Joker, what’re you doing on this side of town?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3A7P2qlV4
The man screeched as he noticed the new person in the car.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGbRF2OCq4
“How dare you hitch a ride with me! A nasty pest like you deserved to be squashed!”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoH38gHkLsN
He tried to shoot LoveBug but he grabbed his arm and smashed him through the car’s window causing Joker to skid against the pavement. LoveBug dug his claws into the henchman driving’s shoulder as he swerved the car.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6O80hLTQqX
“Stay calm! Pull over! And call GCPD!”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKM3MP884l
The man nodded and did as he was told. LoveBug nodded at him and exited the car, walking over to Joker who was just now getting off the ground.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0Euoh0uJ6
He laughed as the makeup on Joker’s face had rubbed on the pavement.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzb7nROYBy1
“Hey Joker, you’re looking mighty funny. Might have to redo your makeup.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OPMTQvBsM
“Am I supposed to know you?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcFVcTEm3H
He leveled the gun at the hero and pulled the trigger but only a little flag shot out. LoveBug and started to approach Joker.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmP58YsIsqO
“Guess you grabbed the wrong one from under the car seat huh?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEyHaAfP1g
Jokers eyes widened as he stared at the gun in his hand while LoveBug continued to talk.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlMeRNO3ic
“See, you might not know me, but I know you very well.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7N7Ut3C32o
LoveBug continued to walk towards the manic while Joker laughed.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VSPKVqKcm
“Oh a fan I see! I completely overreacted it seems! Haha! Well come here! I suppose I’ll take a selfie with you!”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsu6uJA476
LoveBug rolled his eyes behind his mask but walked over, his claws fully extended now.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAG2Tnqr7D
When joker put an arm around him, he sprayed the flower into his face but Lovebug dug his claws into his wrist.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeb4n1BW9XT
“Nice try but I modified my helm just for you. Acid won’t work on me.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydi7gyfjEx
Joker began to softly laugh and placed his hands on either side of LoveBug’s helmet and began speaking in an almost drunk sounding fashion.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJDhP4vnHt
“You did that just for me? I’m so happy.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyei3kLrZI
He pulled the lanky man off him and reached into his bag, grabbing a pair of pliers.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN46ezVqz1J
“Aww you are? Then open wide.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRiO8LWA4T
He carefully took ahold of the Joker’s jaw and held it after the man so obediently opened it wide.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUoABT2Dtl
“Now this might hurt a little bit.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ThMEE9geX
Joker nodded before LoveBug took ahold of one of his back molars and ripped it out. LoveBug dropped him as he began to do a mix of laughter and pained wailing.
He shoved some cotton balls into the jokers mouth to hinder the bleeding as squad cars rolled up on scene.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVWMNsqfIX
They insisted LoveBug come to the station too to “answer some questions.” He complied and went with them to the department; after all, he was just doing his job.

He wasn’t there long before Batman popped over.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEdRnWAwgI
“LoveBug. A word.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0lfaAAkU0
“Technically it’s a name.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5y5IN7BZNC
He got a cold glare from the older hero before following him to what looked like Gordon’s office.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzYeIeuWso
“You could’ve gotten someone killed today.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwd4AiSQNm
“I actually prevented deaths by stopping that car.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7g0MNsFOqF
“This isn’t a laughing matter.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYODrJTGZVE
“I agree. I just wish you would back off. I’m doing my job. Joker has killed a lot of people and I’m pretty sure he’s only out here because he broke out of Arkham. Again.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFknJYqu1E
He could feel the blood in his face. It was one thing to say he shouldn’t stream his crime fighting; it’s another to say he’s doing a poor job of protecting people.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3PJ84F4KK
Batman stared at him speechless while LoveBug stormed out of the station.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDgSd30ljy
Ugh fucking Batman, thinking he’s all that.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEXoejZAVz
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDyWYpL7uE
He was halfway around the block when a familiar voice called out to him.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2kcm3hdSL
“Hey! LoveBug! Can I get an autograph?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08mTBGVqt1
He turned and saw a sight for sore eyes: Jason Wilson.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakb9rQn50l
“Hey man! Long time no talk. How’ve you been?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxx2pVEtgvV
“Pretty good. Working on some cases with GCPD. I saw your livestream today. Good job handling condiment king like that.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveOuTR1Wah
“Heh, thanks for supporting my channel man! It’s a big help.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqo4wIBkJY
“Dude, I always will make time to watch your streams!”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Mj6Z9Ch1m
The two of them walked back to his apartment after he changed back into his normal clothes.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZrLcLalbu
“So, Eros what are you doing here in Gotham?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9E0DC2fcEf
“Eh building my name? Also heard some stuff ‘bout some crime lord getting into trouble. I’m going to look into it on Friday. Should be mega fun for the stream.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTr0KbPiBl
“Sheesh, you keep busy as usual. JL still giving you the cold shoulder?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dTBhWZonM
“Eh. Yeah. They don’t really agree with my whole thing. What about you?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNnX4J7H52
“You know me, Gotham’s just my style.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLuLjl7Qsd
Eros smirked and playfully pushed Jason’s shoulder.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqkTfwvSx0
“Because your old flame’s here?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHGRKqV5eS
Jason’s went flush before he waved the younger man off.
“Sheesh… I forgot about your little trick of being able to notice a person's feelings for others.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SxCdH06OY
“This has nothing to do with that. I just heard the plenitude of stories. Just don’t go getting hurt.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiEs1obKwJ
They both laughed and Jason stood up.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEi5dj60Cy8
“I should go. Thanks for having me though.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hCvkksbGL
Eros opened the door for him with a smile.
“Make sure to watch my stream on Friday!”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSjO74R8SM
“Wouldn’t miss it!”
