[He really didn't want this to happen, but...]

I think it's time we start keeping a list of those who's disappeared, been taken, or is otherwise indisposed.

I'll start.

Lauren has been buried in the ground, somewhere, and Steven Universe has been taken by the Rose Queen.

[He says all of this blankly, matter of factly, and there's only the sound of a shaky breath at the very end.]

Would ya believe me if I said I was all tired out of talkin'?

[Don't, because it's a lie. Joker will talk forever, even when he's exhausted. The only cure is complete unconsciousness.]

But, ah... While yer there... Can ya keep an eye on Doll?

[dontpokethat]

Absolutely not. But, I would if you said you wanted to take a break, or talk about something different.

[He knows you, okay, Joker.]

Sure. I can do that.

[pipers_son]

Ha.... [Called out again.] Anyway, thanks. She's.... rather cross with me right now. And I don't want her ta do anythin'.

[dontpokethat]

[Only seems fair, given how much Joker does it to him.]

Sounds like it. I'll make sure she doesn't try anything rash; don't worry.

[Any more than he already is, at least.]
