character love interests:
tell me of them


Who are your character's love interests? Do they have one true love in their canon? A series of failed relationships and angry exes? Have they sworn off love entirely? Do they have the hots for someone in the City?

Yeah, so basically feel free to tl;dr on the subject on canon and City love interests! If I get bored later, I might even make a chart showing about it!

p.s. this is how this went down last time, in case you wanna c/p your answers from a year ago!

Helena had a couple of non-serious boyfriend type relationships in canon. The first major one was Harry Sims, Gotham's DA. He discovered her double life as the Huntress and their relationship accelerated from there. He had some major issues with her being a superhero however, and he made some really unfair demands that she should retire if she wanted to continue seeing him. Ultimately they broke up because she was unwilling to give up her life as a crime-fighter for him. Later she had an awkward flirtation with Detective Minelli, though it never progressed beyond that.

She has had an infatuation with Dick Grayson for quite some time as well. Complications stem from them being adoptive siblings. He even goes so far as to leave Gotham because the temptation of starting a relationship with his much younger sister is too great. In a post-Infinite Crisis book she later says something along the lines that Dick is the only man she could ever really love (I can't recall the exact line, but it's something like that.)

Helena also had a glorious bromance with Power Girl that I think everyone kind of ships it.

She's had a few flirtations in the City, mostly with other women. Jane and Irene have both been pretty flirty with her, though Kate Kane is probably the person she feels closest to here. IDK if they've been on dates, per se, but they spend an awful lot of time together and then there was that one time Kate was naked in Helena's bed.
