Everyone, this is Dr. Watson. I've made this post filtered away from the Joker. We have limited time and limited resources. My group is already near the entrance to the tunnels on the residential side. We'll look for any explosives on the way down. We're headed toward the hospital. Everyone else, please get out of the tunnels if you can. If not, search where you can, then get inside a building and use whatever's there to try to create a shelter over yourself, something with enough headspace to give you an air pocket if it comes to it. Mattresses work well for that kind of thing in a closet or a bathroom - an enclosed space. We do know these buildings are metal, but even that can come down with enough force.

We also know a few things:

One, items left out overnight seem to get picked up. It's very unlikely any bombs he's placed are ones outside. Just as likely anything not stored in a cabinet or inside something else has been picked up, as well. Mr. Solomons suggested the vents, and I suggested loose floorboards. Probably the best bet on where to find anything.

Two, supplies are limited. If there are any bombs, he likely wouldn't have created many. It's especially true for anything with a timer. This means that anyone in the downtown area is likely to be the most at risk.

Three, he's mad. The Joker is a bloody lunatic. He might be running us 'round to watch us dance, or he might actually have something. Chances are good he doesn't, but it's not something we can count on. If you do find anything like a bomb, your best bet is to get out of the house if you can and into another building. The Admin repairs things that get blown up, I think? It's our best bet to avoid first, dismantle second if we have to.

Report in if you find anything or once you've cleared an area as safe, if you can. Whatever it is he's got planned, there are a hell of a lot more of us than him. Keep an eye out. Contact here if you need help defusing any bombs. I have some experience, and I reckon Kain does, as well.

The former. Sort of.

He was upset when I didn't understand what he was saying, at first. Like I ruined his joke by being "half-witted", is how he put it.

It's okay. I know he was just trying to get a reaction from me.

He finds a lot of joy in that, I guess.

[Her silence would probably be an agreement, for as long as it lasts. But then the obituaries go up, and she can no longer hold her tongue.]

John...

I know why he didn't have a hostage. I knew there was someone with him. That's what I asked in the first place.

He killed Clayton, John.

She can't do this again.]


Please don't

I don't want to see him hurt you, too.

He's still been able to injured multiple people even while sick and improperly armed.

Please, John, promise that you'll be careful.

[Or they could kill each other and the city wouldn't be any better off, the Joker would be healthy and free, and Watson... all she can think about is the look of fury he'd given Moriarty as she burnt to death.

Don't do anything risky, don't do anything risky...]


Okay.

I trust you.
