[harlequinofhate]

[The video clips on and shows the Joker looking down at the tablet from beneath a wide-brimmed, flowery hat.

He wipes blood from his lip with his sleeve and scowls.]

Yanno, I am really not in the mood for you people.

If you're gonna go around picking fights with poor, old clowns at least have the decency to do it indoors.

[He rolls his eyes.]

Otherwise I have a tendency to get a little frisky.

[The tablet swings around and shows a mound of snow. It looks like a human form has been buried beneath it by hand. One foot is still visible.]

That there is my dear Watson.

I'm in a giving mood so he's still alive. Better hop to it, though, lovelies, 'cause he won't survive the night.

[He turns the tablet again and looks down at the camera, waving a finger.]

No, you aren't getting any clues. You should all know from last time that I'm not the dang Riddler. And forgive me I'm not too fussed about letting someone die.

Toodles!

[The feed ends.]

(ooc: Since this a fairly last minute thing the rescuers are already agreed to be Natasha, Tony, England, America, and Ginger. I still encourage people to search if they want to!)

[Oh, crap, another person who can now probably put the pieces together and assume he and House are friends. God, trying to keep this secret has been nothing but a disaster. And now they're traveling together, so everyone's going to find out sooner or later, right?]

I see. Unfortunately, I'm not sure that we're close enough to make it back to that area in time. We've been heading east since we lost the Joker at the school.

Are you in the area, by chance? You mentioned that you have medical training.

[brokethefirst]

That's right. I'm not exactly a GP, b-but I... I do have my licence. [Though if this man is actually with House, she's sure that House's opinions about that particular subject will be apparent enough.]

And yes, I'm nearby, though it's... it's likely going to take me more than a day at the least to get to that side of the building. If it's the best we can manage right now, then I'll do what I can, of course...

That's very brave of you. Thank you. Please feel free to contact me should you need any medical advice, as well, though I'm sure you're perfectly capable if you're licensed. Even still, I'm available should you need me.
