Gotham was full of geniuses, but some of them were psychotic. Psychologists say genius is related to mental illness, hell, even being crazy, but that's why you keep it to yourself. Most intelligent people either were like that or had disabilities. The Riddler was an excellent example, but that would be too simple. It bugged you to know that people don't understand what's underneath the supervillain and superhero label slapped onto their foreheads, to not understand what their motivations were and what caused them to resort to crime. Mister Freeze, or Doctor Victor Fries, resorted to crime to save his wife from an incurable disease. You understood why his efforts were stopped by heroes like Batman. He harmed innocent people, and that was not what society allowed. Even if the people he harmed were corrupt, their influence would allow them to get away with almost anything. Poison Ivy, or Pamela Isley, was a botanist who took eco-terrorism too seriously. You also agreed that something should be done to protect the Earth and the life it supported, but not as much as she did. Most of the people labeled 'Villains' were geniuses, but they just used their brains the wrong way.
Luckily for you, you weren't like them at all. Sure, maybe you agreed with their ideas, but the less extreme versions. You agreed that the human race needed to stop harming the planet, but not by human extinction. Humans are capable of using renewable energy to support their electronic needs, but of course they won't do it. Cures could be made if scientists would focus on the diseases rather than focusing on biological warfare and creating new heroes. Humans would be a greater race if they would band together and stop the fighting, but you knew that it would take a long time for that to happen. People want to have a Utopia where everything would work out, there would be no war, and everyone would be equal, but there are some who are the complete opposite. There are people who want the be the superior race with all of the power, who think their self-interests are more important than the lives of others. The Earth's past clearly displays that there will always be someone who does not see others as their equals, including the pompous asshats who enjoy to pester and bully you whenever you step foot on Gotham Academy's grounds.

You spent less than half of the day at the Academy taking classes, and the rest at Gotham University. Your teachers were surprised to see you, a 16 year-old, have a higher IQ than them. After that, you were taking classes that college students could barely understand. Out of all of the classes you took, Psychology and Criminology were your favorites. It was fascinating to learn what the human mind was capable of, and you used that to your advantage. It was annoying that the Academy still required you to take electives, but you only had to take them this year, and after that you'd be able to go to college with a full ride. It was easier said than done, but that didn't mean you had to go through it alone. Most of the students thought you were insane, but you simply understood the world more than them. Even your humor was based upon it, but not everyone appreciated it nor understood it. You based most of your jokes on the superheroes and supervillains of the world, and knew the identities of most of them.
"Okay, class, today is your final grade for the year," Mrs. Merz stated calmly. "You are going to finish making your improved cake recipes for the baking competition. Since the Seniors are not here, you'll be a bit understaffed, but since you prepared your dry ingredients yesterday, you'll have plenty of time to bake your cakes."
Turning over to your partner, Damian Wayne, you asked, "Did you bring the decorations?"
"TT. Of course I brought them," Damian answered, gesturing to the bag near his feet. "I still do not understand why we decided on the 'Willy Wonka' theme for this cake."
You rolled your eyes and tied the apron around your waist, "This is supposed to be dessert, and Willy Wonka specializes in desserts. Most of the imbeciles in this class are doing a superhero theme or something idiotic like the beach theme Tyler and his posse are making."
