I can't go on living this way and I can't go back the way I came

Who: A he_is_wild and a proxysearch.
When: Early morning, October 8th.
Where: A warehouse by the docks.
Summary: Re-l goes to find Joker and make sure he's not planning on losing it. Things don't go so well.
Warnings: Insanity, mentions of a certain Bat's death. Mild language.


She was running on over twenty-four hours without any sort of rest. Between Batman's death, the mayhem in the office, the EMP, and the resulting disaster in the Darkness, she'd had no time for herself. She had to check on everyone, had to make certain that no one else had slipped through her fingers... Her paranoia was creeping in. Abandonment and loss were no strangers to Re-l Mayer, but the fact remained that she felt like a caged animal whose time was up. Everyone around her was getting hurt, killed, or vanishing. There was only so much she could take.

As most of the people who were caught outside were finally rounded up and taken home, one other person crossed her mind. With Batman dead, what was the Joker going to do? The last thing she needed was for him to fly off the handle and kill a bunch of people right under her nose. She'd had enough surprises these last few days.

He wasn't in the last building she found him in and he wasn't...well, at "home". A flight through the Darkness finally alerted her to where he was, and she swooped down and landed nearby. She pulled her wings in, slipped her jacket back on, and made her way into the warehouse.

the joker, re-l mayer
