Jervis might not be entirely wrong in comparing Simon to a caged beasty. He certainly has a tendency to pace as feeding time approaches. Four steps measures the length of his glass wall. Four steps turn four steps turn four steps turn, his shoulder just rubbing the glass ( Read more... )

"Sii-mon, stop it. You're making me dizzy." She's not even watching him. Not any more anyway.

"Then don't watch." That seems to be Harvey's tack. He's noy looking at either of them, staring up at the ceiling instead, his new headphones (thank you Dr. Drake) still droning Aerosmith into his neck-holes.

Foursteps turn. "I'm bored, you're bored, why shouldn't I move? Harvey? How many feet in a mile?"

"I don't think you've paced a mile." She is incredulous.

"Five thousand and... something." It's been a while since elementary school. "Fifty two?"

He will go with five thousand and fifty. Easy to remember. "And the cell's eight feet wide. Umm... Umm..." Oh god, mental long division. He pauses to write the numbers on his glass with a licked fingertip. Good thing Eddie's asleep. "Six hundred, thirty-one back and forths in a mile. I could do a mile a day. Be in better shape."

Oh, keep the numbers on the glass for when he wakes up, Simon. Please. She's SO bored. "Why would you want to?"

"To stay in shape. Keep busy."

Harvey, mind you, spends at least an hour or two every morning exercising. So it's fairly obvious where he stands on the issue of in-Arkham fitness maintainence.

"Help you run faster."

"Wish I'd been in shape to do it all along." There's a bit of an edge to his voice, as he checks yet again for any sign of dinner.

"Maybe you can run fast enough to tunnel out." Yeah, that's totally the point, Harley. "Where would you go?"

"Down," he says very simply. That's where he came from, after all.

"How far down? Fifty five thousand and something?"

"Probably. As far down as I have to go."

"How far can you go?"

"So far, I've only been as deep as the water, but the caves go off under the river. I know there's a way down."

"What's down there? In the caves?"
