Edward Nygma / The Riddler

[aenigmata]

 

When I'm young I'm tall

When I'm old I'm short

When I'm alive I glow

Because of your breath I die

 

What am I?

Glad to hear it.

It was a pleasure. Thank you for showing me that true love really can prevail.

Do come and visit sometime, both of you.

If I don't, I'm sure Oswald will. Or the both of us.

I've got a nice bottle of whiskey here. Could pop it open for a guys night, if you're free someday soon?

Re: Text

[aenigmata]

That could certainly be interesting, sure.

Great. It's not too busy at the office this week, so we can do it whenever.

[It's a few days later when they're both free enough to have their guys' night. As promised, he's prepared a bottle of some nice whiskey.

He's got the glasses ready while he waits.]

[And Edward will come after work. As promised.]

I hear congratulations are in order.

[commencing]

Thank you, my friend. Looks like I'll be joining you in the newlyweds club.

[Jesse smiles while pouring the drinks.]

A toast to newfound happiness?

[aenigmata]

Sure, why not?

[He hands the other glass to his new friend, raising his own to clink against his.]

There are few things better than being in love, I'd say.

We're looking at a June wedding if all goes well.

[aenigmata]

That'll be nice. Though, I don't suppose seasons mean much here.

[commencing]

That is true.

Speaking of which, I have something to ask you. Would you be my best man?

[aenigmata]

Me? And not Oswald?

[He would've expected that, really.]

[commencing]

I'd love to have you both at the altar with me. I respect the friendship I have with both of you.

[aenigmata]

Then I suppose I'd have to say yes.

[commencing]

It's an honor, Edward.

Once we decide on a date you'll be the first to know.
