Today I got to meet a mother and child in the Nexus. It was nice and the conversation I had with the mother had me reflect a little on my past. I wish there was more I could share of it with some people but I can't quite bring myself to.

Then there was that other person. It was most disturbing to talk to him. I think I must have a good poker face or I really wasn't bothered by his nature at the time.

He's from Gotham too. Or a Gotham. I should take care in case he fixates on people who don't appear to be bothered by him.

When did trusting people first turn into mild paranoia first?

When you started to live in Gotham. Duh.

Oh my God.

Actually for a short while my life was safe and normal.

It went down the hill when someone tried to kill me. The Nexus though has affected me more I think, Mr Dent.

She needs a drink, for real this time.

Why did they try to kill you?

My Uncle had refused to turn over a literal treasure trove of information he had on a lot of people he had gathered over the years. I was the closest thing he had to a child.

Well, that sucks.
Was it the mob? Or a supervillain?

A little of both. Ever hear of the arms dealer, Cobblepot?

She imagines he has.

Don't think he's started in our world yet. It's only been a year or two since Batman started in our world.
Us and Joker and Scarecrow are the only ones you could call supervillains yet.
Although frankly the Joker is a whole rogues gallery by himself, in our opinion.

You gotta be kidding me.

He's an arm's dealer. They don't just pop up one day and say hello. He's been around longer than the Bat.

We have others. Guy called Clayface killed a friend of mine.

Maybe he's not in Gotham yet. Or maybe he doesn't exist in our world.

I'd say to watch out but... You don't need to worry.

I pity anyone who tries to hurt us. My other half is not a very nice guy, to say the least.

And I don't worry anymore.

Re: Text

[goodheadbadhead.livejournal.com]

Nothing to worry about? Or have you simply decided it's a waste of energy?

Re: Text

[blindingtrust.livejournal.com]

A little of both. I don't have anyone that close to me in Gotham anymore.

Neither do we.
