[For the first time the Joker shows his face to the Network. His features are gaunt, slightly crazed, and oddly clown-like.

He smiles into the camera almost flirtatiously and waves with his fingertips.]

Hello, honeys, it's your pal Jack White here... Or the Joker. Jeepers me, I guess that little secret is out by now.

[He coughs into his fist.]

Anyhoo, let me get to the point.

By now everyone is probably deciding that the next logical step is to dig deep.

Before you all grab your shovels and ice picks I advise you to think.

[He taps the side of his head.]

Don't go doing anything crazy now! Hahah...

If you do, you might find the punchline to this whole cruel gag is not terribly funny.

[A thoughtful pause.]

Oh, and if anyone sees the United States tell him I think he has my stuff. I want my stuff back.

pretty sure we play by the "finders keepers" philosophy here, clown
ergo his stuff
ergo my stuff when he gives it to me

how the hell did you get lelly to let you make this post?

[There's a part of him that's dreading the answer will be 'check the next obituary.']

[harlequinofhate]

[He scratches behind an ear as he reads this and tuts.]

What? A guy's not allowed to make a post?

I'm not clowning with you, you idjit.

[His faces twists into an exaggerated expression of deep thought.]

Or maybe I am, who can tell anymore?

And that gear is mine. Who needs a cane and pain killers more? The addict faking a limp or the poor guy with busted up bones who can barely walk?

[rubikscomplex]

what?
about the "dig deep" crap?
well, no
you're not clowning about that
it's the rest of the gag that makes me wanna gag

i don't care if you need it more
cane was mine when i brought it in
meds are in my name
plus
i'm pretty cool with you suffering when i'm not your attending and your case isn't interesting
easy to diagnose that you got the shit beat out of you
boring
not my problem

As a doctor you should know better than relying on America to give you meds anyway. Have you seen the health care system? Yikes.

[Hmm. To engage, or not to engage. Kunsel actually deliberates about this before finally responding with a private text.]

How did he get your things?

@gravedigger; video [private]

[harlequinofhate]

He pummeled me with a bat.

[deus_ex_phs]

Ouch. I didn't take him for the violent type. What set him off?

[harlequinofhate]

If you ask me, he probably doesn't like clowns.

That's an occupational hazard, you know. Be a clown, get knocked around by bats.

Heheheheee...

I can't 8elieve the guy every8ody was soiling their human pants over is a fucking juggalo.

@gravedigger; video

[harlequinofhate]

Me neither.

...Who are we talking about?

[fairygodtroll]

Haha, man. Classic harmless 8efuddled clown 8anter. Adora8le! In an incredi8ly lame way.
The juggalo is you. What with the face and the whimsical voca8ulary and the fact that you seem to A8SOLUTELY 8e down with the clown. Duh!

[harlequinofhate]

Oh, that.

I've been a clown my whole life, toots.

Since the day I was born, you could say.

It's not your stuff, it's stuff you stole after you killed House and weapons you used to kill him with. [Okay, technically the weapons were Joker's, but whatever!]

@gravedigger; video

[harlequinofhate]

Excuse you, those weapons belonged to moi.

And I needed the cane and medicine more than Doc Liar did. C'mon, man. Be fair!

[brokethefirst]

Not everything you obtained was yours to begin with.

[Her retort is quiet enough. She shouldn't be talking to him. She's going to be chided for trying, she's sure enough.

But at least... at least they're separated now. It's an excuse that soothes the guilt for her curious needs.]

Anyway. What's your reasoning? Why do you think this step shouldn't be taken in a literal sense?

@gravedigger; video

[harlequinofhate]

I think the message to "Dig Deep" comes from something awful.

I'm trying to help you ungrateful morons here...

[brokethefirst]

Something awful?

Like what, exactly? Are you talking about the, um... creature that Rhys happened to see?

[harlequinofhate]

I think that is what's telling us to dig. You wanna listen to that?

[meteorrains]

[Jeepers.

Me.

He can not.

But more importantly!]

How could the United State take your stuff?

@gravedigger; video

[harlequinofhate]

By bludgeoning me half to death with a bat.

[meteorrains]

A country bludgeoned you with a bat?

[Someone should tell him there's a human personification of that country wondering around.]

[harlequinofhate]

Yes.

Quite literally, too, I might add.

Crazy world we live in, innit?

[He smiles, enjoying the confusion.]

[dr_unconscious]

How badly are you hurt?

@gravedigger; voice; private

[harlequinofhate]

Oh between the concussion and this groovy new fever I'll be dead soon. Lucky me, eh?

[He might be acting a bit overdramatic. Just a tad.]

[dr_unconscious]

Not if I can help it. [And here's Clayton taking it hook, line and sinker.] Just need to be careful with that concussion, try not to stress yourself too much. When did the fever start?
