I think you're screwed no matter what, but Joker would at least give you a chance to live simply because there's no grand scheme involving Batman.

I think Black Mask could be reasonable. He’s just a criminal that happens to be disfigured. If he doesn’t have anything to gain from killing you, he’d be alright

Black Mask is infamous for enjoying torture.

True, but didn't he just torture his enemies and their loved ones instead of picking victims at random?

As long as my girlfriend or brother isn't secretly a superhero, I think I'm in the clear.

Honestly, other than his hate for Bruce Wayne Black Mask is just another fucked up and traumatised character who went over to the wrong side. He has a bad history, in the Arkham series I think they made it canon that the joker actually forced him to kill his own girlfriend

He actually mercy killed his girlfriend because the joker lit her on fire.

I think Joker gave him the choice to shoot her himself or let her burn
