Gotham City “Hurry up and get those crates on the truck,” Two-Face snarled. “We’ve got twenty-two minutes before the cops respond to the alarm.” His goons rushed, as Two-Face’s hand methodically flipped and caught the silver dollar he always had with him.
Flip. Catch. Flip. Catch.

Interesting crossover, never would have thought to put these two together, but they fit rather well.

Any plans to expand this? I'd love to see where you take the story!

Well, I wrote this at four in the morning, because I'd not have been able to sleep without getting it out of my head. I could in theory expand it more, I'm not one usually for writing fanfic. I could give it a shot, however. Yeah, Batman vs Light works very well, I think.

Much like I'd considered Jigsaw from the Saw series going up against Batman's rogue gallery - when you think about it, it is so twisted, it would work.

Saw is one thing I could never get into - too gory for me.

This combination of characters definitely has the potential for _interesting_ situations. *shudders at the thought*

If I do expand on this, one thing that will come up is the Joker trying to find the Death Note, and Light going up against him, trying to find out his name.

The Joker is the perfect foil for Light - nobody knows his name without the shinigami eyes, and Light isn't willing to take the contract to get them. ;)

I just noticed the "twenty-two minutes" thing. Brilliant. :D

One last note: in a rewrite, I'd suggest naming Two-Face's right-hand man Deuce. First of all, it sounds less like "Duh" to American ears, and second, I think Two-Face would appreciate the double-barreled meaning of the word: two (esp. cards or dice) and devil.

Seen on at least two other forums:

"You really don't get your mistake, do you?" the Batman asked, as the death note burned.

The Killer shook his head. "No! It can't be. Every step of my elaborate plan was perfectly thought out; I worked backwards from the facts until I arrived at your -true- identity. I wrote Bruce Wayne in the notebook. Why aren't you dead?!"

Batman answered, "Because I haven't been 'Bruce Wayne' since I put on the mask all those years ago. You wrote down the wrong name."

That... would be perfect. I doubt it would work that way... but yeah. Heh.
