Love is warm.


The wind blew all over the island, there was cold and bitter bite to it, the island itself held a resounding calm for once. There was no screaming, no insane cries, no escape attempts, just calm.

There was a very good reason for this, but it was not because the patients were on their meds or because they'd all already escaped. It was for a very different reason and a very real and important one.

"There," Ivy whispered as she placed the last flower in it's rightful and decorative place on the memorial. "She liked yellow didn't she Victor?"

Victor Fries nodded as he stared with the smallest of smiles on his face as he stared at the memorial of his beloved Nora.

He was surprised that the others had put it together, but they'd each put there part to it, Edward somehow had managed to acquire a photo of Nora and it was placed on the front of the stone, flowers also decorated it, yellow, blues and whites, with blue and white candles of different shades and heights surrounding it but carefully away from the flowers so they wouldn't burn.

"Nora would've loved this," Victor whispered and Kirk gently placed his hand on his shoulder.

Edward turned to Mist who was also with them, in fact Victor was shocked at who was with him, who had turned up to help.

Some he expected, most he was surprised by and his Nora would've been too, he was sure of it.

Riddler, Sphinx, Scarecrow, Ivy, Firefly, Rat Catcher, Kirk, Moth, Croc, Two Face, Harley, Shark and Hatter were all with him, with him to help Nora.

Mist walked up to him and pulled out a necklace of a golden dragonfly, the one Nora had been wearing when Victor Froze her.

"We can't forget this," she said as she gently placed it on the stone, next to the photo.

Victor looked over the words, Firefly had been the one who had cut into them with the help of Croc and Victor would be lying if he said he wasn't impressed.

The words, elegantly carved into the stone said Nora Fries, beloved wife, may she finally be free of her pain and drift through the stars like a snowflake in winter.

It was fitting.

It was then that Victor realised something as he looked among those that were present. They'd all lost someone, all of them. They'd all lost someone who meant to them, who they loved. They understood.

"Do you think Nora woulda' liked us, Snow globe?" Harley spoke up and Ivy rolled her eyes.

"Harley I don't think nows the best time."

"Indeed child. Also, we are super criminals."

No you're not, Victor thought in his head, you're all broken, broken and lost just like me.

"Yes, who would like us Harley?" Edward spoke up with a raised eyebrow. "Answer, no one. A riddle so simple anyone could see the answer."

Victor shook his head. "Nora would've liked you," he whispered as he looked up with icy tears staining his face. "She felt sorry for all of you in truth, she knew you all, heard you all while she… slept," he bowed his head. "I only wish… I only wished she'd of met you all in person… maybe she could've helped lead you all back into the light like she did myself… maybe… maybe…"

The others stared at him for a long moment before Croc put a gentle hand on his shoulder. "It's too late for us, Victor. Not even Nora could've helped save us."

He nodded before turning to them and smiled. "I must thank you. Nora…" he looked back at the small memorial and smiled once more. "Nora would've loved this. If only she could see it for herself."

Ivy smiled at him. "She's at peace now Victor."

"Yes…" Victor nodded before he looked to the sky and his smile grew. "And now it's perfect."

The others frowned before they looked up and soon they were smiling too, because yes, now it was perfect because it was snowing.

"Nora loved the snow," Victor whispered.

"Maybe this is her saying thank you," Mist smiled and Victor heard many hum in agreement.

As he stood there he felt a warm hand reach his other shoulder and realised it was Kirk again, in fact, this was the warmest he'd felt in a long time, like his heart, the ice that had once encased it had melted away slightly.

He looked back at the memorial, Nora's words echoing in his mind, 'time's never been on our side, Victor' and no it hadn't been, certainly where he and Nora were concerned, but now he saw for the first time, he had friends. Maybe not the best of friends, maybe the not the most trustworthy or reliable, but friends none the less.

Some where a little rough around the edges, but all unique, like a snowflake, like Nora.

He may not of had time with Nora, but he now had time with his friends, a word he had not used in a long time, but now he had time to use it again.

Victor smiled at the warmth, not just literal, but metaphorical as well, which is when he remembered another thing Nora had told him and she was right.

Love is warm.

THE END.
