v. doubled - [ VOICE POST ]

[badcolors]

I - I want to extend my apologies. I haven't been feeling - whole lately. I've, well. I was - was - injured before I woke up here. So, I. I'm not exactly -

I haven't even had the chance to introduce myself. My name is - my name - my name - [Harvey groans and hisses.]

Two - Harvey. Harvey - Two Face - Dent. Former District Attorney of Gotham City

Voice; Filtered, visible to Smoker. See my smooth eavesdropping? Yeah. Yeah I did that.

[absterged]

Things aren't often fair, but I'm sure a balance can be sought.

I'll have to consult the Commodore. It may be that until his actions can be confirmed in this world, there's little we can justifiably do. It can open an unfortunate can of worms to try and dig into the past of all people accused of such things, particularly if it isn't confirmable by anything but hearsay.

... "Joker"...? Nevertheless, I'll be sure to keep an eye on him.

Voice; Filtered, visible to Smoker. Oh ho SNAPS. I see what you did thar.

[badcolors]

A balance? Chance balances things out, makes things fair. You don't know what is going to happen. Fate. Fate.

He - no not him. He didn't kill her. But he killed cops. Countless cops back in Gotham City. Not that it matters, though. They deserved. [A slam cuts him off and he breathes.]

Yes, the Commodore. Please, please tell him about the Joker before we have another incident on our hands.

The Joker. He may not seem dangerous to you people, but he'll - he'll do it all again.

Agent of Chaos; chaos is fair.

Voice; Filtered, visible to Smoker. Ohohoho.

[absterged]

... Order and chaos. You're quite concerned with maintaining the balance of justice.

Perhaps, but one can foresee and control certain things, if one is attentive. There's no changing that, and that will always be unfair... unfortunately.

After all, some have a more clear view than others of what is more likely to happen.

It's my duty to do so. I'll make him aware of our discussion. Harvey Dent, isn't it?

My name is Aizen Sousuke. You needn't worry about the Joker any longer.

Voice; Filtered, visible to Smoker. Ohohoho.

[badcolors]

Order and chaos; I was a - I was Distinct Attorney. I, justice, I. I used to.

Chance can't be seen. That's why it is chance. It is fated, perhaps, but there is still chance. We don't know what is going to happen; the flip of the coin, heads or tails, fifty-fifty. Those are the only things we can rely on now. The only things I can put faith in.

H-Harvey Dent. That's - that is my name.

Aizen Sousuke.

Thank you.

Voice; Filtered, visible to Smoker. Ohohoho.

[absterged]

... Of course.

However, it's strange to me. Please pardon my ignorance, but isn't a District Attorney a man concerned with pursuing pure order? One cannot truly pursue a thing by leaving it to something as uncertain as chance can be.

It's my pleasure to pursue my duty. Your assistance is also appreciated.

Voice; Filtered, visible to Smoker. Ohohoho.

[badcolors]

You shouldn't be so good in these dark times, Aizen.

I said I was a former DA. I have. I have lost that title by now. Pure order was. Was an objective.

Now it's fairness, righteousness. When the cops are the worst people of all and the hall of justice burns, there can be no order, no pure order, anyway.

I will try.

Voice; Filtered, visible to Smoker. Ohohoho.

[absterged]

Oh? Do you mean to suggest that you would see me differently?

I see. A corrupt system of order; I suppose I can also sympathise. That's an unusual change of heart, Mr. Dent.

Of course.

Voice; Filtered, visible to Smoker. Ohohoho.

[badcolors]

No, I am merely stating a fact. How can anyone uphold such a facade in this world?

Change of face, not a change of heart.

Voice; Filtered, visible to Smoker. Ohohoho.

[absterged]

Facade?

Surely there's more to justice than a false front, Mr. Dent.

Voice; Filtered, visible to Smoker. Ohohoho.

[badcolors]

Such a front. We all wear masks, Aizen.

Voice; Filtered, visible to Smoker. Ohohoho.

[absterged]

Your accusations are offensive.

It seems I've hit a nerve. Let's end here.

Voice; Filtered, and not visible to Smoker.

[absterged]

... But where the situation calls for it, I suppose it's to be expected of some.

Voice; Filtered, and not visible to Smoker.

[badcolors]

If you are going to mirror me too, if you're two-faced as well, then you do not need to call me Harvey Dent.

Voice; Filtered, and not visible to Smoker.

[absterged]

And what shall I call you?

Voice; Filtered, and not visible to Smoker.

[badcolors]

Two-Face.

Voice; Filtered, and not visible to Smoker.

[absterged]

Two-Face. I had a feeling that was what you were saying prior.

... We're both wearing masks that are slipping. I'm glad to have been informed.
