[log] Three crazy people walk into a boneyard... [closed]
Characters: Joker, Harley Quinn, Magenta Magenta
Location: Buildings 257 and 264
Date: Evening, Days 298 and 299
Summary: The Terrible Trio finds some human remains and some warnings to not disturb the dead. They decide to ignore those warnings.
Warnings: Human remains and the clowns in one log.
Said Mr. Smith, “I really cannot
Tell you, Dr. Jones—
The most peculiar pain I’m in—
I think it’s in my bones.”
Said Dr. Jones, “Oh, Mr. Smith,
That’s nothing. Without doubt
We have a simple cure for that;
It is to take them out.”
He laid forthwith poor Mr. Smith
Close-clamped upon the table,
And, cold as stone, took out his bones
As fast as he was able.
Smith said, “Thank you, thank you, thank you,”
And wished him a good-day;
And with his parcel ‘neath his arm
He slowly moved away.

What's a clown without an audience? Just some nutcase shouting at the dark?
Guano-man had to go ahead and ruin everything by dying. I SHOULD KILL HIM FOR DOING THAT!

[He drop-kicks the head to punctuate his point.]
Now the Bat was an audience worth playing to.
[He huffs, not commenting on Harley. He thinks, vaguely, about scolding her for thinking her opinion ever mattered to him... Yes, he should mock her for that, take her down a peg.
He should, he knows, but he doesn't.]

[He is very much in a rut.]

Then he smiles toothily. Aw, he can't stay angry at her.]
Atta girl.
[He drops her.]
I don't get into ruts! This stupid, bleak city isn't giving me anything to work with. I should be bringing laughter! I should be bringing the "boom" to "boomtown" but I can't even find a single dang thing to make a bomb with lately.
It's like it knows, Harls, it's like the town knows how to make me miserable!

P... Poor Puddin'! It's the town, 'course it's the town! [The town that has him into a rut, but she's not using that word again.] We'll find somethin' soon I bet! Somethin' to help bring the boom! Or since we're gettin' newbies in everyday, I bet some of 'em wouldn't mind tradin' some chemicals. Or we could just steal 'em, if we can find somebody who's got 'em.

They got me in the guide now, telling people I'm dangerous and not to be trusted! They won't trade with a wack job like me!
[He sneers but, really, he'd be angrier if people didn't think he was dangerous enough to put in there.
He thinks for a moment and stares at Harley.]
...Are you in the guide, sweetie?
no subject
I dunno if I'm Norfinbury's sweetheart but I been puttin' some feelers out and folks seem cooperative enough.

That's my girl, thinking ahead!
I'm gonna need you to help me gather resources.
