As usual, I kicked off Halloween by watching the Grundy's Night episode of The Batman. I then decided to follow-up that specific Halloween episode by watching Strange Minds, the one where Hugo Strange and Batman go into the Joker's mind to find out where he's taken Yin. Going into the Joker's mind? It can't get much more Halloween-appropriate than that! The episode is hilarious and creepy all at once and has some of my favorite scenes and imagery, like Moon Joker and Hugo Strange analyzing Batman.
And I ended up with a plunnie. Now I'm thinking I wanna do a fic where Hugo Strange escapes from Arkham and manages to abduct the Riddler. He's intrigued by the Riddler's various actions in my multi-chapter fics and wants to go into his mind with that device he invented.
It would be a lot of fun to write and give me the chance to design what the Riddler's mind is probably like. I am imagining question marks and deathtraps everywhere. It's a dark place, yet there is still light. Naturally I'd need to create some intriguing imagery to showcase Julie's place in his mind. His deadbeat father would be depicted in a way to show how he was someone the Riddler trusted, until he grew jealous of the Riddler getting good grades in school and beat him for it. Batman would probably be considered the Riddler's ultimate rival/favorite person to play against. I'm not sure where Yin would fit in.
I'm also trying to figure out how to get her into the action, as I really wanted her to see into the Riddler's mind as well. Batman can go in to try to find out where Hugo Strange has him because Wayne Industries has the prototype of Hugo Strange's machine. Technically, I suppose that would mean two could go and Yin could get in that way. But that would mean he would have to reveal his identity as Bruce Wayne to her. Either that or pretend to break into Wayne Industries as Batman to access the machine. Or something like that.
It could be interesting if he revealed his true identity to Yin. I'll probably lean most strongly towards that idea.
I just hope I can refrain from actually writing this fic until I have the current one done. I have four chapters up and I'm not sure how long it will be. The first one was ten, including the epilogue. Maybe if the plunnie grows too insistent, I'll write a blurb or two to try to make it settle down.
