Yin sat on the edge of the bed, wondering why Riddler was acting so friendly towards her, last time they had met he had been trying to kill both her and the Batman. She was shaken out of her musing by the sound of Riddler returning, he had left with the excuse that he needed to get some medical supplies about a minute earlier after thoroughly examining her broken nose. True to his word he had a medical pack slung across his arm, a small smile adorning his features, barely noticeable. He set the pack down on the bed next to Yin, taking her face gently in one hand and drawing a small cloth from the pack with the other.

Gently he drew the cloth, which it seemed he had already squeezed a little cream onto, up to her face, gently dabbing it across her broken nose.

"This should help with the stinging" He told her softly, as he took the cloth away, replacing it in the pack "Your nose is broken, I'm sorry but there's nothing I can do but let it heal".

"Why do you want it to heal?" Yin shot back, voice a lot icier than she actually felt, no matter what the reason he was helping her, and anyway he seemed sincere, it was strange, he seemed so different, so much more caring.

"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." Riddler told her by way of explanation, his voice softer and less cold than the usual voice he used to tell riddles. He gave a smile at the confused look on Yin's face and stood, "I'll let you think about that Ellen" he told her gently. He strode across the room taking hold of the door handle and turned to look at Yin, giving her a warm smile, so different to his usual smirk, before pulling the door open and stepping through.

Yin sat on the bed mulling over the riddle, everyone thought she was brilliant with riddles but usually it was Batman telling her the answers and her taking all the credit, not to say she was stupid, but she still wasn't able to work everything out in seconds like he could.

"Lawful, unlawful, nothing when bought, often sold dear" Yin muttered under her breath "Damn it Edward why do you have to talk in riddles?" she growled out, both irritated and confused. She turned the riddle over in her head once more and suddenly it clicked. Her eyes widened and she gasped,

"I……I am love!" she whispered to herself, her eyes about as wide as they could get, "The Riddler …. loves me". She felt her head spinning, one of Gotham's most wanted was in love with her, he loved her. Forgetting the law and the fact he was a criminal for just a moment she gave a thought to him, the REAL him. She had to admit he was a nice guy, clever, not to mention gorgeous, ok yes she did have feelings for him. She caught her breath, she loved him, she loved the Riddler, one of Gotham Cities most wanted.

(Note this is set after the final episode of 'The Batman', I didn't like how Yin was dropped after the second season)
