What I love most is how well this could work. Alice is the one that knows hypnosis and brainwashes her brother till eventually he completely believes he is The Mad Hatter. Later something happens to Alice for Jervis to start searching for another girl to continue their tea parties.
OR Alice is always chasing after him forcing him to join her tea parties and adventures, mirroring what Jervis will later do to other girls and He hates it.
Jervis doesn’t want to be apart of her deluded fantasies, but at the same time she’s still his sister and he can’t just abandon her. He partly blames himself for her being like this thinking that when they were younger he wasn’t there for her or something of the like. So what does he do? He learns hypnosis and uses it to keep her happy. He may not want to be The Mad Hatter, but he can make her imagine that he’s willing. Jervis goes out to work while Alice stays home in the delusion that there in wonderland together.
For a while this works even if Jervis always feels guilty. Of course on day the cops find out and arrest him, believing he brainwashed his little sister. To make things worse what if she still has the disease Jervis would (to everyone in the court) obviously be taking advantage of his younger sister isolating her from everyone and trapping her in some sick fantasy. Jervis is then locked away in prison while Alice is taken to Arkham where they try to convince her he brainwashed her.
Imagine if she believes it. Imagine her one day angerly visiting him in prison and accusing him of all this being so disgusted before leaving.
Jervis loses it.
He becomes The Mad Hatter, after all he’s the insane one isn’t he? He took his poor poor sister and messed with her mind. He’s the villain he was just delusional about her wanting him. He remembers how happy she was when she Alice and how disgusted she was when she wakes up so he decides “Alice” should always be kept in Wonderland.
Gotham!AU where everythings the same except Alice Tetch is the crazy one and Jervis is trying to get away from her.
“But Jervis! It isn’t a tea party without the Hatter!”
N-no! Get away from me!
“FINE! You don’t want to spend time with your sister, i’ll make you because I love you, dear brother”
Day 2
Like most people my favorite and first version is the Batman the animated series. I’d say the reason why this one is my favorite is because you can see where Tetch is coming from. It’s not easy to talk to people especially when you like the person. At the same however you can’t root for him, his actions are far too deplorable (and actually diverse not just “kipnap ol’ Alice”).
I guess I also relate to his want for people to be happy, feeling like you have to give this person a happy ending in order to get your own. To add, I truly would LOVE to live in a fantasy would, I remember one night were a almost cried with how badly I wanted to escape reality.
This version of Tetch will probably always be my favorite for both personal and more general reasons.
2: would be @waiting4codot version 3: @askarkham (look at the guy) 4: Arkham games (idk I just kind of like it) 5: Joker’s asylum
Day 4 Relationships
If I’m not careful this could be controversial (jk) I’m just going to pick people Tetch is normally associated with and give a brief description of how I see them
1: Jonathan Crane - Friend
Jonathan and Jervis (once called the J.js’- bad move Joker) they’ve had a rather close relationship grow originally Jonathan was one of Tetches tormentors in Arkham, but that eventually changed when the two worked together. Know you’ll find them sitting across from each other in the corner of a room chitchating. I have no problem with the ship and it’s nice as a scroll through Tumblr.
2: Edward Ngyma - Mutual/kinda friend
Mutual, they’re not the closet to be called friends (as differing interests stop them) but they’re not enemies either (similar feelings about school) and can be seen sitting together or standing near each other from time to time. If Tetch needs information/ or just feels like listening to someone talk Edwards usually his person. I’ve seen them as friends, couple, and enemies so I’m kinda just nuetral to it all. (Gotta say I feel almost guilty for putting the dorksquad way less close than before)
3: Pamala Isley - Stay away
Ivy and Tetch got of to a REALLY bad start. Tetches kidnapping of females really pissed Ivy of at the start, so much they normally didn’t stay in the same room. However over time Ivy has definitely reconsidered her stance considering all of the other rogues and DOES want to try and talk to him again. Sadly at this point Jervis would rather avoid her. (I REALLY like the SpringMadness ship, but I feel like it’ll take a long time to happen, just like a tree)
4: Mary dale - “Hey Jerv” “Hey Mary”
They have tea parties together, talk together and help each other with there Maladaptive daydreaming. All in all they have a positive relationship, the doctors normally don’t mind but they do worry about each other encouraging the others delusions. They were close only after a week of knowing each other.
5: Lyle Bolton - eeeeeh welllllll no
It’s hard to say anyones close to Bolton especially after the “Lock up” incident. Tetch is completely terrified of Bolton, while Bolton just finds Tetch exhausting. In a Bolton reformed au I see them tolerating each other if not avoiding each other. (On occasion Bolton has helped Tetch out of trouble.)
6: Alice Pleasance - No
Alice at first say Tetch as a friend later fear, then completely loath and finally someone to no longer care or think about, she’s either happily married or single. Tetch is sad at the least about all this.
7: Madeline Daresbury - OC
Yes, I’m putting my own OC on here! Madeline and Tetch are two peas in a pod if not, a dependant on the other. Madeline happily goes along with all of Tetches delusions and Tetch enjoys her company (he doesn’t know that Madeline is also using him as a surrogate for her little brother). The two are normally not in Arkham together (Madeline goes to Black gate) but can be usually be spotted together outside of Arkham.Whered The Mad Hatter be without his March Hare?
If you have any questions or other stuff about my character relationships please let me know!
Day 2 Outfit
Can't go wrong with Meisters classic outfit can we? Though personally I think he wears tap shoes.
March paused upon hearing the friendly voice and grinned. "Hello, Hatter I suppose I got all turned around."
March paused in her steps when she noticed the other hare sitting next to the Hatter.
"I suppose I have a clone or maybe I'm the clone. Hmm you also don't quite look like my Hatter. Don't suppose you have tea for another, the more the merrier right?"
● { @themarchinghare} ● | { Pour a new cup! }
✂ - - - “ Wait–wait! Hold everything– SILENCE March! ”
March was not making any noise. “ Do you hear that? Someone is walking in our garden… The roses are talking about them behind their back– as they do… ”
He pauses. “ …March Hare is coming? What? –Did I send you two invitations, March? If so this other you is terribly late indeed… Oh, March Hare! Over here you silly lagomorpha! ”
Late night
Ficlet of Jervis and Madeline
The rain made everything seem so loud. Every step, every panting breath, and every police siren echoed so much louder. A part of her wished all of the noise would just stop, stop and let her think. Instead, she kept running forward. Madeline could feel rather than see Tetch stumbling behind her, all she could do was grip his hand tighter and hope the next turn would give them a place to hide.
Finally several abandoned buildings came into sight and Madeline forced her exhausted legs to push faster.
"Tetch, come on! Just a few more steps! Then the police won't get us. I promise, we'll be safe soon!"
Madeline turned her head only for a moment to see Jervis's panting exhausted face. If she was in a better scenario, she'd try to carry him, but that was impossible now.
Finally buildings stood in front of them. Without thought Madeline grabbed her remaining Kama and broke the glass to the dingy window. She quickly grabbed Tetch and thrust him through before hopping in herself. The moment her body dropped inside she felt shards of glass entering her torn boot.
For a few tense seconds, they both remained on the floor, panting. Mercifully, the sirens disappeared, leaving only the sound of rain. Still exhausted, Madeline pushed herself up and looked at her companion. He remained on the floor, trying to curl up and block out the world.
"Alright, alright, Tetch, the cops are gone, we just need to lay -"
"March, why did- did she do that? Why did she scream for the Red Queen?"
Madeline's face softened as she realized that Tetch was once again lost in his own fantasy. Slowly, Madeline crept closer to her companion, ignoring the glass that penetrated part of her broken boot. Madeline half jumped towards Tetch, before tilting her chin up and wiggling her nose.
"Now now Mister Hatta' we know that wasn't the real Alice. Why that young girl just wanted - wanted to play a game with us. No need to sulk!"
As casually as she could, so as to not spook him, she pushed Tetch into her lap, dusting off the broken glass that stuck to him.
"Ah, but March! I don't care for croquet, you know! And I'm tired of all these silly games!"
Tetch pouted, throwing his arms in the air, ignoring the bleeding wound on his arm.
"Alice, oh Alice, where is she? Can't she see how much I want to bring her a party?"
Madeline sighed, looking around the old building. She would need to find something to distract him from his pity party.
"Well, sometimes girls just want to -"
Suddenly, Madeline had a marvelous idea. Moving her hand to grip his shoulder, she forced him up to see a pile of decrepit boxes.
"Ah, look Hatta', a tea party! Already set up! How wondrous, how stupendous! Perhaps this was all a game to get us here!"
Madeline glanced down at Tetch, hoping that he would see the table and cups, and not some other wicked thing. She could never fully predict where his mind would take him.
Just as she thought, he immediately jumped up and began eagerly walking towards the pile.
"Well, Callooh Callay to you, March! For a hare your eyes are sharp, why I bet they could cut a rath in half!"
Without another word, he sat himself on one box lower than the rest, and began to mime pouring tea.
"Hurry, Hare! Before it gets too cold!"
Smiling, Madeline stood up, already feeling the soreness in her body. It was only a temporary distraction until Tetch got his bearings.
'Why, see this! Our day went from mimsy to frabjous in an instant! Why it's like a -'
"Not the same thing a bit!’ said the Hatter. `You might just as well say that 'I see what I eat' is the same thing as 'I eat what I see'!"
"You might just as well say,’ added the March Hare, `that 'I like what I get' is the same thing as 'I get what I like'!"
The words tumbled out of Madeline’s mouth with ease. Madeline slowly sat down next to her friend and pretended to eat a crumpet. She knew they'd have to leave and find a better hide out. For now, playing pretend with her friend was all she wanted to do.
Updates and Hroos || 4/2/25
For those who don't know, my mom had a stroke last march and has been in a skilled nursing facility and doing rehab on and off since then, depending on when insurance pays for it. It's a mess.
She's made a LOT of progress and we have a new goal, home by May or June. It's gonna be tough but I know she can do it.
Right now, I don't have an income other than my dad supporting me a bit each week. I'm grateful for that and food stamps, but things like bills from the ambulance and doctors do add up. I also need to pay for phone and internet, as well as rent.
If you like what I do, please consider donating. It goes back to one of the above, or something like snacks for mom. (it matters, trust me) Making sure I have my housing, food, bills paid, that helps me have more time for this blog. I hate not being able to focus on it, but my mom needs me. She's my rock. She loves my very own love for Jon, and I could not ask for a better mother.
If you are uncomfortable giving though gofundme, donations can also be made through the following:
