A mouse of a man presses close to get a glimpse as Dent passes by. The look on his face is slightly sad, disappointed even. So few leave Arkham never to return. He had hoped maybe just this once...
Ivy's cell is damp, but lacks light or anything resembling contact with the outside. Some astute people, Dent among them, will know it is over-watering and underfeeding her. Like dying of thirst in the middle of the ocean.

He should expect catcalls. Sneers. Abuse.

Dangerous and broken.
The look, he doesn't expect, but he's on guard. Another manipulation of some kind, no doubt.
Trust no one.

The smile says he's a smug bastard.

"You don't know anything about beauty."

It just so happens his idea of beauty doesn't agree with the laws of the land.
