I think what I like best about this is exactly how many ways it can be taken-- in the character interactions, the relationships between them, the why's and how's behind their actions, their mannerisms and everything in between. You make The Joker's line of thinking somehow seem more clear without taking away from it, without making it /logical/ or /sensible/ in the slightest, just shining light on it with a subtlety that I definitely envy here. The way you write /all/ of the characters is fab and I definitely will keep an eye out if you write anything else.

I must say I was particularly fond of the section with Gordon and, whether you intended it or not, the veiled sexuality behind the entire section, carefully strung along within The Joker's words, and Gordon's reaction to it-- both in Gordon's relationship with Batman and with The Joker's relations with Batman.

And, of course, how you made it so clear that to The Joker, Batman is both everything and nothing. You definitely shaped the characters well and gave even more life to already wonderfully set characterizations. <3 Everything about this was wonderful-- truly lovely.~
