My boi

I know some of the things here won’t fit into the year Gotham is set in but idfc I can’t do whatever I want

———

· AUTISM✨ · He basically has night vision by this point since his eyes have gotten so used to the amount of darkness he’s constantly in

· He’s a Non-binary Pan Demi-aroace and uses They/He pronouns but still feels okay with being called masculine terms

· He rarely trusts anyone, if he does trust someone it’s after they have gone through hell and back together and have each other’s backs for months · Give this boy his baggy cardigans right now or else!

· He definitely really likes Slipknot and mcr, literally almost every time he’s wearing headphones there’s probably their music blasting into his ears on full volume 

· He has a braiding stim, so if he’s stressed he braids a little bit of his hair (kinda like hiccups from httyd)

· He is actually one of the most supportive people you’ll ever know, even if he doesn’t know the person he’d help and patch them up after he just found them beaten up in an alleyway, or if one of his goons got kicked out for being queer, he first would go have a little “talk” with the family that kicked them out and then go and comfort (to his best ability) his goon · Please don’t make fun of him for his “weird” interests (cheesy gay romance Manga/comics and squishmallows, yes I’m serious), he will cry and beat himself up over liking something that’s seen as “odd” for him to like (just because he’s scary and emo doesn’t mean he can’t like whatever cutesy shit he wants!)

· He rarely speaks unless he has to, like he’ll talk but won’t if he doesn’t feel like it

· He bites his nails when he’s on a brink of a meltdown or a panic attack, he tries not to but it’s become a subconscious thing to do  · He just wants to be taken care of and take care of the people he loves the most, he wants the one person he trusts and loves the most to just patch him up kiss his forehead, and wrap a blanket around him as they hug him, but he also wants to hold, protect and do anything he can for the love of his life

This is an “add on” for my previous dating Headcanons for of Jonathan crane, made this for fun and comfort :))

Warning: Talk about Meltdowns, cute shit

here are my general dating hc’s for Jonathan :P (Gn) ———

· Just two autistic people in love <3

· Helping each other out if either of you misunderstood  anything social like a joke or someone just being rude, and if anyone was rude to you he would quickly shut that down before explaining it to you once you ask

· Sitting together and rocking back and forth or side to side when either of you are anxious or just feel the need to stim together, he would also love it if he held you while rocking :)) · Jonny loves seeing you in his clothes, so if you ever find a shirt or hoodie of his that you find comfortable he’ll just let you wear it when ever you’d like

· If you like pressure he’ll gladly just cuddle or hold you for hours! · He would be so happy if you just spent time listening to him talking about his interests! I have a feeling he didn’t have a lot of people to talk too besides his dad and his dad doesn’t seem like the most supportive person

· The first time he saw you having a meltdown he thought you accidentally got sprayed with the fear toxin, but then he quickly realized what was actually happening and went straight to comforting you and doing whatever you needed to get rid of your discomfort and distress · He loves the feeling of his hair being played with, so if you have a hair playing and/or braiding stim, it would be perfect :D

· Sitting up late at night since neither of you have a good sleep schedule or have insomnia and just talk about interests and stuff · If someone tried to flirt with you he wouldn’t be able to pick it up right away (neither would you probably), but the second he realizes he would because extremely jealous and insecure but that’ll quickly turn into him being protective if he sees you becoming clearly uncomfortable with the person, let’s just say that person’s next couple of hours were filled out fear

okay he’s my boyfriend now lol, idc anymore, everyone say ‘hi’ to my fictional bf  ;P

Dating Autistic!Reader version!

· He would be so shy and careful with you when you first started dating, especially if it was before the scarecrow! · He wouldn’t really fully believe that you actually love him at first, because in his mind he’s the most unlovable person ever that doesn’t deserve someone as great as you and that you deserve someone better than him, you quickly shut that down of course and told him every little thing you loved about him and how much he deserves love

· Jonathan is severely touch starved but also shy when in comes to physical affection, so he’ll just melt into you if you hug, kiss, cuddle him · Cafe and Bookstore dates as often as you can!

· If he ever sees you wearing his clothes he’ll melt at the spot and probably kiss you all over your face (more than usual)

· He’s really protective of you, of course he is, you guys live in Gotham and he’s a criminal, how could he not be protective! What if the gcpd decided to arrest you for something you didn’t do just so they could try and get information from you or what if someone attacked you in an alleyway trying to rob or assault you!? (I’m just saying his protectiveness is justified) · He honestly hates seeing you scared, it breaks his heart, so he would never use the toxin on you (unless if you explicitly ask him too) · He’s not big on PDA, the closest thing you’ll get when you’re out in public is a small peck or holding hands

· Comforting him whenever he has night terrors or panic attack’s  · You probably help him a lot with working on his toxin and gear, he at multiple times he has walked in on you asleep by something you’ve been working on for him, he’ll just grab a blanket and put it on you or carry you to bed

· Watching horror movies together since the both of you love horror · I have a feeling that he would be the type of guy that really likes metal and classical music, you guys sometimes just like to sit together and show each other the music you’ve found recently

· His favorite way to be affectionate is: Kissing your nose, neck, lips (ofc) and quickly all over your face, hugging you from behind, grabbing your face and squishing it against his and rubbing your faces close together 

· You live at his hide out and visit him as often as you can when he’s in Arkham, he really appreciates it since it lets him know that you’re still safe even if he’s not right next to you every day

· He literally just loves you so much, he would do anything for you, burn the world down to the ground or just stop and be a normal civilian (well as normal as he could be after the crimes he has already committed)

I’ll be flapping my hands and squealing in excitement for seeing Jonathan Crane again in Gotham only for the scene I’m watching being him screaming in terror 😳

i LOVE this version of Jonathan crane/scarecrow, he deserves so much more love!

It’s really hard to find fanfics and fanart for this version so I thought I could make some for my boy

Warning: Implied abusive parent and hallucinations, nightmares, talking about abandonment, using R instead of y/n

“-HE WHAT?!” I yelled into the phone “I’ll be right there” I hastily said hanging up as I put on my shoes and ran out the door, I could hear my mom call after me asking what I was doing as I ran down the the hallway towards the stairs of our apartment building.

I ran towards the hospital worried out of my mind, how could this happen?! I should have stopped it, told someone who could have help him get away from his dad, thoughts filling my mind of what I could have done to stop that bastard from experimenting on Jonathan, but I’m not an adult I couldn’t have stopped him and the adults I told to look into them didn’t do a single thing to help, all I felt was the guilt in my chest growing as I heard my feet hitting the wet ground as I ran in the rain.

Once I got to the hospital I slowed down a bit and started to hastily walk up the stairs to the floor they kept Jonathan, I looked around for the police knowing that they would be guarding the area Jonny was staying in, the second I saw the uniforms I quickly walked towards them 

“where is he?” I ask the detective as I push past the two police men standing in my way, “where is Jonathan” I ask again my voice shaking, his previously harden face softened once I said Jonathan’s name “you must be his friend, I’m detective Gordon, I was the one who called you about the umm- incident” he said reaching out his hand for a handshake, “will you take me to him?” I asked ignoring his hand being more worried about Jonny than being polite, “yeah, of course- this way” he says as he turns to walk me to the room they were keeping him.

Just as we reached the outside of his room I felt a hand holding me back keeping me from opening the door “wait- before you go in” Gordon starts but stops himself and just sighs as he motions to the windows next to the door, once I looked through I saw Jonathan struggling and terrified “right now he’s seeing whatever he’s the most afraid of and um” he looked down clearly feeling a little guilty, I looked away from Jonathan and towards detective Gordon “what?” I ask getting more worried “the doctors say he might never stop seeing whatever is haunting him mind” he finished, taking a breath looking back up at me “you can go see him now, just be careful” Gordon said, not giving it a second thought I walked into the room as quickly and carefully as I could.

Once I was in the room I froze for a second, seeing how much distress Jonathan was in was unsettling and heartbreaking, I wouldn’t want to make it worse so I took a breath and slowly walked towards him “Jonathan?” I softly say getting his attention, his face immediately softened once he saw me but quickly turned back to fear as he scanned the room, he sighed in relief and looked back at me his eyes watering “oh Jonny” I whispered as I sat down next to him wiping away the tears that threatened to fall down his cheek, “hey it’s okay, you’re safe” i try to calm him as I noticed the restraints, what the fuck, I quickly moved to take them off ignoring the feeling of eyes glaring into my scull from the outside, the second I got of the restraints I helped him sit up and hugged him.

I could feel his shaken breath against my neck as I held him “you’re safe- you’re safe” I whispered feeling him relax in my arms while clenching onto my shirt “please don’t go” he whimpered “i will never leave you” I whispered into his hair as I rubbed him back.

I haven’t left the hospital in 3 days but I could care less about the outside world right now, all I want to do is help Jonathan as much as I possibly can.

I sat on a chair on the side of his bed, resting my head against my hand half asleep when I heard mumbling and groaning, once I opened my eyes I saw Jonathan struggling around in the bed mumbling and groaning afraid, I sat up and reached out to his hand “Jonathan- Jonathan!” I held him stopping him from moving trying to wake him up “Jonny?”,  his eyes shot open “No!” He gasped “hey- hey it was just a nightmare” i comforted him as he shook in his bed “I can’t take it anymore, please make it stop” he whimpered and breathed unevenly, I got up and sat down on the side of the bed and grabbed his hand rubbing my thumb over his knuckles “I’ll do anything i can to make you feel better I promise” I said quietly, giving him some time to think he looked up at me and timidly opened his mouth to ask something “C-could you lay with me- and hold me?” He looked away shyly, I smiled and said “of course” he quickly moved to give me room to lay down.

I got beside him and wrapped my arms around him letting him lean his head on my chest, he pulled the comforter over us as he snuggled into me, we ended staying like this for the next few days since the comfort of his favorite person holding him kept the nightmares away.

Simply just laying there and talking has been some of Jonathan’s favorite thing to do, it reminded him of how it was before he got injected with the toxin, no fear just the comfort of his best friend and significant other being right there for him, talking has made the time go by quickly, talking about books and movies we liked and of course just talking about life in general, but we were also able to just sit comfortably in silence not feeling the need to fill the room with our voices, It was one of those times when Jonathan and I were just laying there in silence when Jonathan decided to ask me a question, “R?” Jonny look up at me “yes Jon?” I looked down at him “What scared you the most?” He asked sweetly, normally in any other situation this question would have creeped me out but not with him, I looked up “erm- I guess” I took a breath “i guess being abandoned or loosing the people I love” I looked back down on him and gave him a comforting smile, “Really?” He quietly asked “i know it’s stupid-” i started but before I could finish I felt Jonathan’s lips on my temple, “it’s not stupid” he whispered as he moved back to look at my face “I promise I’ll make sure that you’ll never go through that fear, I promise” he said as he looked me in my eyes with such care and love in his eyes, it made my heart flutter as I smiled and kissed the bridge of his nose and laid down with him in my arms.
