EXCUSE ME???

EXCUSE ME???

The lyrics to the song:

Goodnight sweetheart, well, it's time to go

Goodnight sweetheart, well, it's time to go

I hate to leave you, but I really must say

Oh, goodnight sweetheart, goodnight

Goodnight sweetheart, well, it's time to go

Goodnight sweetheart, well, it's time to go

I hate to leave you, but I really must say

Oh, goodnight sweetheart, goodnight

Well, it's three o'clock in the morning

Baby, I just can't treat you right

Well, I hate to leave you, baby

Don't mean maybe, because I love you so

Goodnight sweetheart, well, it's time to go

Goodnight sweetheart, well, it's time to go

I hate to leave you, but I really must say

Oh, goodnight, sweetheart, goodnight

Mother, oh, and your father

Won't like it if I stay here too long

One kiss in the dark

And I'll be going

You know I hate to go

Goodnight sweetheart, well, it's time to go

Goodnight sweetheart, well, it's time to go

I hate to leave you, but I really must say

Oh, goodnight, sweetheart, goodnight

Lucius being very chill around Ed too

ed version

Oswald said 'go big or go home'

While doing this gifs yesterday i thought, this hesitation in Jim’s eyes, this question “What are you playing at? Is this a trap?” about open benevolence in Oswald went away later, starting with season 3. 

I think he got it. He understood that it wasn’t a ploy - after Oswald went to Arkham for him, after Oswald didn’t try to get revenge for the fact that Jim left him on Dr.Strange’s mercy. They distanced from each other in s3a, but that scene in 3x18, i think it was different from their previous contacts. New understanding, maybe. New level of unspoken communication. 

Well. it was stated in Jim’s guilty hallucination, with ‘Never leave your unit behind’. Eerie scene, and interesting - Jim tells Oswald that he has to find Bruce and goes away, subtextually - leaves Oswald because it’s Bruce who guides him. And earlier it was like my previous ramblings in a nutshell. Oswald speaks in backwards (i think?) Twin Peaks manner, and Jim can’t understand him, but then - he does.  Metaphors on this show sometimes were strong.

Subtle headcanon that when Jim or Oswald are talking to anybody else about Gotham they call it “My city”

Except when they’re talking to each other it’s suddenly “Our city” like they’re talking about their baby

The average argument over what’s best for Gotham sounds like a custody battle
