You know what they say: never judge a book by its cover? Sounds like the advice of lax publishers, if you ask me, but somehow those twined words have entered our lexicon of mildly annoying phrases.

Crane... likes Austen? Why does that creep me out? Ugh.

I'm more of a fan of Romantic poetry, Rime of the Ancient Mariner being my favorite. Not that you really care.

A mystery to be solved.

Oh Dick, you wound me so. Of course I care. And it's natural you'd like Coleridge; he was a pampered whiner, too.

Hnnn. You try and be pampered in a traveling circus and then living with Bruce who was never there, Nygma and then bitch at me, kay?

Contemporary poets are more entertaining at any rate.

Will do.

I'm a Dylan Thomas fan. Another enigmatic personality.

Still angry, I take it?

Cut it out, or I'm going to develop a phobia.

Shh, don't tell Crane. He'll be all over you if you scream.

Hang on, I need to look out the window.

...No, no pigs flying. Gotham's still on fire, but I can't tell if this is Apocalyptic fire or not. No Lucifer, so I guess the world ISN'T ending...hm.

What d'you need, Nygma?

Cute. Real cute. I can see why you stayed so long with the GCPD.

Are you up for a little investigation?

They loved me over there.

Well it sounds fun, but I do like just a bit of detail to go off of.

One loved you in particular. But I'll spare you.

It concerns Joker. I can't have too many stray ends, Renee. I need to trust you with this one.

Does PlayBoy count?

Otherwise, H.G. Wells and Holly Insider.

What 'bout yourself?

enigmaestro March 27 2009, 02:27:49 UTC
Haha. No, even if you read it for the articles.

Ah, an H.G. Wells fan? I enjoy his Invisible Man, really.

Aside from Joyce, I'm keen on Agatha Christie. What can I say? Guilty pleasure.

... There's articles?!

Course there are.

Guilty. I'm more a When the Sleeper Wakes, fella.

Well, each their own.

But I havef to say. I sorta prefer to hear people talk over readin'.

'Uppose it may be odd... But readin' the Gettysburg Address ain't the same as... Hearin' it.

However, you're free to disagree.

Heh. You're a funny guy, and not in a bad way.

Really? I suppose it's easy to multi-task that way. Though there's satisfaction with holding the tangible work, in my opinion.

... Hrm, oratory works are a different creature altogether. That's a fair point.

And what's wrong with 1984? It's a classic.

I am not surprised at all. You've actually done the jackboot pounding a human face before, haven't you?

That's in the past now Edward. What has that type of behavior gotten me thus far?

Imprisoned, so I've heard. Didn't think you'd be so eager to release the grudge match, Tommy. Color me shocked.
