Author's Summary: And it's an endless waltz between The Batman and The Joker.

Review:
Set after the end of the second movie of the new Batman series, this dark tale tells the twisted love story of Batman and Joker...or rather, Bruce and Adam.

As Batman finds out more about Joker's past, they start to see into each other's psyche and realize that they have a lot more common than each of them previously thought. The Batman hates The Joker, yet all Bruce ever wants to do is help Adam, who doesn't really want to be helped. Hauntingly disturbing and utterly dysfunctional, their relationship might destroy both Batman and Joker before Bruce and Adam can find peace.

The author did a good job at capturing the essence of tormented and psychotic minds in Kisses & Screams. That being said, I think this story could use a beta for typos as well as a few minor inconsistencies. A great story for those who like dark!fic but also want a happy ending.

Thank you! You know, the three lead male actors had so much more chemistry with each other than with the supposed love-interest Maggie Gyllenhaal...it's hard not want to slash them; you don't even need slash goggles. ;p
