[Jack stands in an open area of the city, garbed in plain, light blue clothes. Simple shirt, simple pants, barefoot. He looks... slightly confused.]
... Where are the walls?
Where's the security door?
No, they... They can't keep me out here.
I'm not well.
[His gaze casually moves from one side to the other, scanning the place... and he begins walking. Where was Arkham? For that matter, where was Gotham? Jack had yet to see the world since the incident, back when he was forced to wear the Red Hood costume. Everything was... all wrong.]
I'm not ready to meet the world... I can't be alone with myself!!
ha ha ha
NO!! I can't... Allow that of myself. I want to be sane. Don't--
ha ha ha ha hehehee hee hee
[He clasps a hand over his mouth... and his walk breaks into a run.]
[OOC: Ladies and gentlemen... I present to you Joker, pre-criminal era. What if, in that lapse of sanity after he escaped the toxic sewers, he was aware of the thoughts and insanity that was quickly encroaching... And sought to right everything by commiting himself? Though far from his Joker self, he's also far evolved from "Jack."]
