There Aren't Many Windows Of Opportunity For Him To Meet A Single Mother Like This - Tumblr Posts
What if Roman met a woman who's already pregnant and takes a liking to her ? Would he help her raise the kid like his own after the birth ?
(Continued under the cut!)
It would be an unlikely situation but not impossible! Roman Sionis isn’t a very nice man and it’s no secret so you aren’t likely to find pregnant women in his company. Frankly any woman in her right mind would do well to stay clear of this man (and any business to do with Black Mask altogether) but Gotham IS a wretched city, so even the unexpected can happen. In the right situation with the right person? Roman might very well lend a helping hand to a struggling soon-to-be parent, especially if he’d taken a liking to her. Not having a partner in the picture makes a relationship more likely to happen, even if it’s not his responsibility to step up. He sure as hell didn’t make this kid and this isn’t his partner, but they’re alone in the world now and maybe there’s good reason for that? One example being if they’re in more danger being around their former partner than they are being around a criminal like him. Roman isn’t struggling in the slightest and can certainly spare the resources to help out a single mother and in a way, he might even enjoy it. Having a ready-made family on stand by would prove beyond all doubt he’s a true man. Who could even question the child’s paternity when Roman’s facial features are obscured, being disfigured the way he is? It’s an ideal situation if he himself is single, wanting a connection outside of work and to throw off any doubts or suspicions as to why he hasn’t had children yet. He won’t be terribly involved in their upbringing beyond providing financial means, too busy persuing his dreams of becoming Crime Lord of Gotham, but in a more secure future when he’s sitting on top of the Food Chain? Then he’ll have the time, the means to do more than just provide his ‘family’ with security and comfort.
