Gotham is certainly a lot worse than you expected. You figured "making it" would be easy once you got here, but making friends is already hard enough. Your job at Pogo's is rough. Your apartment is tiny. The streets are mean and the people are meaner. 

Except one guy. 

The same guy that comes to your job all the time. 

He's weird. He's loud. He's awkward. He's just uncomfortable to be around in general. 

But he's the only one that actually treats you like a person. 

Maybe he isn't so bad....

Unfortunately, those that hide behind a happy act, fall the hardest when facing the treachery of the cold,sinister eyes of society. Suddenly when his life's about to turn for the worst, he meets a little young thing named Charlotte,who through her kind heart and selflessness wins his affections. I really hope you enjoy this story~ Side Note- I do not own whoever made the cover's artwork, whoever did is a true mastermind in the making. All I did was turn it into a cover. ~Thank You~

Laughing On The Outside by MissCherryHoeGirl

Gotham was a broken city. The rich couldn't give a shit about those who were helpless. Arthur Fleck was no exception. Suffering from a disorder that left him ostracized from his world, even in the smallest of places, it felt as if no one even saw him. Until he met her. (spoilers ; be warned)

Harley by WithersWriter

Beautiful Chaos by BlackBull4LIFE

A lonely young women's life changes the very night of Murray Franklin's murder, on live television and it is a change that her heart will never forget. When she spots a man passed out and bloody, in an alley, that same night and even when she sees who it is, even though she hesitates for a moment, that doesn't stop her from trying to help him, despite him resisting it. Even though her mind wills against it, her fragile heart finds a lifeline in his. She soon comes to realize that this man is so much more than this "Joker" person that's all over the news, but a kind and beautiful soul that has suffered greatly, as has hers. She comes to find that he has a brilliant light that glows brightly inside of her very own darkness as the moon gleams in the night's sky, for even the moon would not shine so brightly, without the darkness that surrounds it. 🌙 A/N: I just want to say first, that this fic will never be abandoned! I promise. It's already done anyway but needs editing. I update every 7 to 10 days ♡

Harley Quinn And The Joker by JamesGrayi

Welcome to my first and only fanfiction about Joker and Harley Quinn, the two (surprise) main characters in this book. --You're just my favorite jester-- Love is strong, but sadly, not strong enough as - after a final reunion after more than a year separated - Joker draws the final line in his relationship with Harley, leaving her heartbroken with no one to trust - except for Poison Ivy and Black Seven. Meanwhile, Batman and Joker alike face one of their most dangerous enemies who feels nothing but hatred for both of them and has figured out a way to finally get rid of the Caped Crusader as well as the Clown Prince of Crime. Gotham's most evil villains join together in a fight that they seem to win, leaving no chances to Batman and Joker. Or...might a sudden change of heart save Gotham's citizens as well as it's criminals? (Joker and Harley are both based on the Suicide Squad movie) I hope you have fun reading the story :) All characters (except for Black Seven) belong to DC™©

The Joke's On You, Bats! [ 𝙱𝚊𝚝𝙹𝚘𝚔𝚎𝚜 ] by smolkiths

The Joker has always been open about his feelings to the Bat, but Batman ignores the insane remarks, until he receives a letter and decides to try a new approach. And then things spiral out of control. Jason comes for a visit and the question on Bruce's mind is: Who's the real monster here? ─── ･｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ─── Batjokes. Not a reflection of the comics or games, just based off them and depicted in my own way. I don't own these characters nor make a profit from them. TW// A LOT of abuse, verbal abuse, sexual abuse, dark themes, Harley abuse (sorry, Harls!)
