The Joker sat in front of a small TV, watching one of the channels covering his latest event. He rested his elbows on knees, a cigarette burning in his hand. The reporters were just beginning to notice the truth of the decoy, making him scoff. He huffed, shaking his head and taking a drag. How embarrassing, he thought, for the reporters who thought they had him. He could see the excitement on their wrinkled faces when they thought they had struck gold, but they were expecting the Joker to simply
hand himself over to them. Didn't they know it had to be a little bit more of a chase? Since the Batman had fallen from the public lately, the Joker spent most of his time planning and only executing some of his ideas. His schemes felt wasted on the ignorance of the public. Frankly, he was bored. He needed something new.
He stood up, crushing his cigarette under his foot and stomping into stingy bathroom. The mirror was cracked down the middle and the light bulb flickered with uncertainty. He ran the water in the sink, rubbing off his make-up and drying off. Without looking in the mirror he made his way to the kitchen and picked up a bottle of whiskey off the counter. He popped the top off and brought it to his lips, groaning when only a drop came out. After raiding the cabinets and finding no liquor left, he changed out of his suit and into a pair of dingy jeans and a black t-shirt. Should he risk going to a run down bar for a drink? He didn't care at this point. His rush was going down and he was all about cheap thrills.
He crouched in front of the TV again, turning up the volume and watching some press release about him. A pretty young woman with light hair spoke for several moments and then was gone, and the Joker frowned slightly. He picked up his remote and re-wound the video, replaying the girls questions. "Huh," he mumbled. Rewinding again, he caught her name and turned off the report.
[ I'm sorry if these are too long
I don't want to bore you to death. How would you like them to meet? I was thinking maybe he could break into her apartment after finding out more about her or he tips her off to meet at a bar? ]
