Battle Terrain
Detective Challenge: Stockholm Syndrome

[Peypeypeypey]

This challenge is sort of inherently a problem for me because I have 0 doubt that The Question's detective skills can let him get the heiress back unharmed very easily. Can he undo the brainwashing though? I don't have any idea. Kite Man would probably be pretty bad at brainwashing though so I'm going to say yes

[C.T.]

Hmm, if it was less brainwashing and more just winning her over by being a kind himbo, could be hard to beat Kite Man, given he managed to win over a misanthrope...

[Fox]

Stockholm Syndrome is, essentially, self-induced brainwashing whereby the hostage develops feelings for their captor.  The captor may not even be actively helping it along.

Given that Kite Man is, in cannon, a laid-back charmer it could be a case where untangling the relationship could be difficult.

Oh yeah, didn't he manage to wow Poison Ivy out of all people? Someone who canonically has hatred for all human kind due to the pollution we spread? Yeah, it seems like Kite Man has just the right amount of charm to actively "brainwash" someone into developing feelings for them.

Even if Kite Man can successfully pull this off, I am still confident that Question can capture him and undo the damage.

Eh, he apparently wasn’t charming enough, considering Harley latter stole Ivy out from under him, on his wedding day of all places! Anyways if it comes down to breaking the heiress’s infatuation with Kite Man, Q could always charm the heiress himself. The guy managed to win over Huntress, and she was like an easy 10 out of 10!

You guys are talking about Harley's show, right? 'Cuz there's no record otherwise of him and Ivy hooking up. 

Blending canons can get kind of confusing.
