Character + thing: scarecrow + puns :3

send me a character + thing if you wanna know my headcanon for them and that thing

Doctor Jonathan Crane has many, many rules that only apply to himself. As such, being a supervillain and a theatrical one at that, the man delights in an opportunity for a good pun, especially if the Bat is around to suffer them. My personal headcanon is that the man absolutely delights in his own puns, inspired by the literary, Classic Universal Monster, and Hammer Horror villains he so clearly idolizes. However, being the misanthropic grouch that he is, I personally feel that the man has very little patience for the puns of fellow members of the Rogues' Gallery (in particular, he fully considers the Joker, among other things, painfully unfunny). They set him to massaging his temples, sometimes through the sackcloth. The only exceptions to this are if it's from a Rogue for whom he has a particular soft-spot (probably usually Harley Quinn, even her schtickiest, hackiest Catskills-puns get an affectionate nod from him), or if it's really so spectacular that he'll give credit where it's due/it got a rare chuckle out of him, because he is, after all, an exacting professor at heart. (This has in turn pushed one Edward Nygma to consistently be upping his game.)

My backing for this is that from his earliest iterations he's been shown punning in-universe (as was par for the course with Golden Age comic book villains!), and it seems fairly textually consistent across various adaptations of different tones - from his cartoonier adaptations in Batman: The Animated Series and Happy Halloween, Scooby Doo to the darker versions such as Tim Sale's Scarecrow and my beloved Year One, the man is consistently punning, albeit in more lighthearted or dramatic contexts depending on the tone of the story:

Even in the comparably rather humourless Dark Knight trilogy, Nolan!Scarecrow, being the highlight, gets in on the fun:

(Pictured above: lines that could just as easily apply to Christopher Nolan.)

heads up yall

I have about 25+ asks for the meme, and I'll try to get to them all within the next dew days. I'm only answering a few at a time to avoid spamming, so don't worry if your ask isnt answered quickly

lots of you are thirsty for nolancrow I will say that

....he's the one I'm least confident in writing lol

[lungfishpoem]

Nolancrow isn't my favorite version of him but my favorite fic uses him so who cares

[beepboopbobbetteedo]

There really are people out there who looks at a twinky bratty sub like nolancrane and go “I wanna call that ‘daddy’”

If anything, you’re the daddy in that relationship, honey.

This is how we fix the Nolanverse!

Tell you what, they should just swap Harley and Scarecrow's backstories. She got fired for shooting a gun in class and he slept his way through school.

Who uses more teeth whitening strips, Nolancrow or Arkhamcrow?

Probably nolanverse, he's probably the most pretty out of everyone so he'd definitely have a nice pair of compers, man bat is a close tie too! Arkhamverse has some.... concerning teeth, probably the worst out of everyone LMAO

Jonathan lacing your lunch with fear toxin as an act of love

[mirtifero]

I want to cosplay nolancrow so bad

[susandsnell]

To be fair, he'd probably try it on Dracula because nobody gets to cause more terror than him! That's his monopoly!

I really wish I could draw that comfort character meme and depict Jonathan Crane saying "I think we're going to have to kill this guy, Mina."

Nolancrow + Childhood?

Send me your favorite Scarecrow + a word, and I’ll come up with a headcanon about it! || Not Accepting

Nolancrow has always been very handsome, beautiful you might say. He always looks good in photos, and this is especially true for his childhood. He looked older than he was, very mature for his age. Sadly, he was often made fun of for his looks. Kids can be ruthless.

The bullying is what made him who he is, very cruel and manipulative.

As an adult, he’s much more of a bully than he was as a child. You can thank heartless children for that change in attitude.
