Clarice rubbed her eyes groggily and stared at the boy unfortunate enough to have come knocking on the door to Scarecrow's lair.

"Delivery for an 'Insufferable Woman Named Clarice'?" The boy asked nervously.

"What is it?" She snapped, glaring at him.

"Um, here," He said quietly, handing her what had been hidden behind his back. A single yellow rose with a small red bow tied around it with a tag attached.

She warily grabbed the rose from him and read the note.

I am just two and two
I am warm, I am cold,
I am lawful, unlawful
A duty, a fault
I am often sold dear,
Good for nothing when bought;
An extraordinary boon,
and a matter of course,
and yielding with pleasure
When taken by force.
What am I?

She smiled and felt her cheeks warm up. "A kiss," She muttered. She turned the card over and smirked.

A Kiss. P.S. The boy is a gift for Jonathan. I hear he needs a new test subject, or so Dead Switch says.

"Hey, kiddo, you want to come in? You look a little cold," She said. The boy shook his head.

"N-no, thanks, I've got more deliveries."

"Oh, come on. You must be freezing. I've got Hot Chocolate."

"W-well, alright then."


Oswald smiled at the black velvet box before looking up at the door and pasting on a scowl.

"Lewis! Bring Molly in!" He yelled.

"Y-yeah, boss!" Lewis stuttered.

A few minutes later, Dormouse had entered the office.

"You called, my Penguin?" Molly asked, smiling. She sat down across from him and crossed her legs.

"Yes, I did," Oswald said. He grabbed the box and stood before walking over to Molly. "Happy Valentine's, love," He told her.

Molly slowly opened the box and smiled.

"It's beautiful," She whispered, looking up at Oswald. He smiled and took the necklace out of the box and stood behind Molly to place it around her neck. "It's perfect."

"Now you finally have something that distinguishes you as mine," He said. He knew the simple gold and diamond penguin pendant would surprise her.


No one knew what Paxton had given Dead Switch, but they weren't heard from for the rest of the weekend.


Summer and Spring didn't get anything for Valentine's Day, but they sure did give some people quite a scare when the police officers and their significant others found body parts in their chocolates.


Victor smiled as he watched Evelyn open the red box.

His smile grew as her eyes lit up and she picked up the heart from inside the box.

"Oh, Victor, it's perfect," She said, smiling.

"Only the best for you, my love," He murmured. "You should have heard her scream when I cut into her."

"I wish I could've, Victor," She said, pressing her lips to his in a loving chaste kiss.

"She was a socialite. She had a boyfriend. I posed them in the park. It looks like he's proposing to her."

"You're so romantic."


Harley smiled at the flowers she found on her nightstand. She grabbed the note and read it out loud.

"Dear Harley, I want to bee with you forever. Love, J. Bee?"

ZZZZZZZ

A swarm of honeybees came into the room through the vent and started chasing the blonde around the room.

"Oh, Mistah J! He does love me!"


A/N: Ha! I did it! I gave you guys a Valentine's story!
