Why was the internet concepted?

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

To amuse me, of course. Lo and behold, I am amused.

I suppose this would be considered my introduction post. Though really, I shouldn't need an introduction: I'm Edward Nygma! The Riddler! The top detective in Gotham. It's true, it was published in the Gazette so surely that makes it valid.

Oh dear, I think my penchant for sarcasm just caught up with me. Oh, to be betrayed by your own acidic voice, how cruel! Well, at least I was bested by the most worthy thing on this forsaken planet.

Speaking of forsaken, has anyone seen Dent's sense of fashion? Clearly it has abandoned him.

Ah, anyway, back on point: I'm rather fed up with my cases. How many kidnapped socialites must I rescue for a dashing sum of cash before something truly worthy of my deductive prowess takes the scene? Really, sometimes I wonder why I even bother with this... I mean, sure, the detective work is a positive utility for society, and I've garnered a stunning reputation but...

Isn't there anything more? Beyond the green curtain, so to speak?

This isn't as fulfilling. I've proved I'm better at the mystery game than anyone else.

Why am I rambling on about this? Well, why not? I'm used to getting free therapy. Call it habitual.

.....Nygma? Eddie Nygma. From Gotham. Gotham with B....Robin and the Birds and all? That Nygma, right?

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

Obviously.

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

And you're extremely charming.

A detective, you say~?

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

... Nice monocle there, chap.

Indeed, but not merely a detective. I'm the Riddler. Perhaps you've heard of me?

[fasterthan]

Wait.

Detective?

Since when did they let you be a detective?

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

Probably when society realized it needed quality crimefighters.

[thedawniscoming.livejournal.com]

Excuse me?

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

Harv, you really need to face the truth, pal.

[wannabesanta.livejournal.com]

Boy, you newbies just like to 'yak yak yak', eh.

My bad, but might I ask what be wrong with Harv's sense of fashion?

It may not be 'snazzy' as mine be, but... it's... It's suiting.

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

That's an icy criticism you're serving.

Oh, Harvey's just an easy target. As pathetic as a little blind puppy.

[h4ck3r-61rl.livejournal.com]

The Riddler?

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

I'll pretend you typed that with deep deference.

[mediator-suze.livejournal.com]

I somehow doubt you're a detective.

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

Somehow I gather you're often wrong.

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

Or purring, as the case may be?

[stfu-herbivore.livejournal.com]

Don't ramble about useless things, herbivore.

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

Don't tell me what to do, Extremely Angry Young Man.

[checkmymobile.livejournal.com]

Edward Nygma? I haven't heard of you, I'm sorry to say.

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

...

[tntandgasoline]

Have I mentioned lately that I adore this community?

I really, really do.

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

Have I mentioned you look smashing in purple? It's true.

[beatennot-broke.livejournal.com]

It sometimes happens, don't worry about it.

My name is Cho Hakkai, a pleasure, sir.

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

I'll try to redirect my attention.

Wonderful to meet such a polite chap. Refreshing, really.

[legaldogooder.livejournal.com]

Funny. I haven’t heard of you, before. Different Gotham, I assume?

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

Bingo, my dear.

I fear I don't recognize you. I suppose there's no doppelganger in my world.

You know what that means? You're one of a kind.

[notheoryinchaos.livejournal.com]

My, my. So many detectives, you'll kill all the mystery. Then where will we be?

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

That's a mystery in itself.

[biverbam.livejournal.com]

Is he the wizard or just the head?

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

Both.

Just because.

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

Interesting introduction sir.

Hakuba Saguru, detective as well, but not from Gotham.

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

Always a pleasure to meet another of the craft!

Where do you herald from, then?

[chaos-godess.livejournal.com]

Hello there, sweetheart~

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

My, my, why hello to you, as well.

[visestvita.livejournal.com]

E. Nygma, what a delightful name.

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

You, sir, clearly possess good taste.

Pleasure to make your acquaintance.

[sure-lock.livejournal.com]

"I've proved I'm better at the mystery game than anyone else."

Hrm. Right.

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

Oh, this is interesting...

Bravo, you have passed the literacy test, my fine fellow.

[hesmypuddin.livejournal.com]

NO WAY! This place just keeps gettin' better an' better! ♥
