[It isn't an accident that the Joker has his voice post on as he talks on the phone; there's the sound of feet hitting the desk as he props himself up in his chair, sounding more like an idle secretary than a pissed off crimelord. On speakerphone, there's the sound of a gibbering, panicked man, a hint of an Italian accent, one of the Joker's crossovers from Maroni's men. It's not distinctly clear what he's saying, but there's mentions of "blood everywhere," and something about a face being carved up.]
Yes, Ernie. I get - no, stop babbling- I - ENOUGH. [The goon on the other end of the line falls silent, though there's sound of rioting in the background.] I get it. Just find out who did it.
["But, boss-"] I'm, I'm sorry, is that questioning me I'm hearing? I don't think I pay you to ask questions. Do you know what would happen to your - uh, what was her name, Maddie? What's gonna happen to her education if the breadwinner - that's you, Ern - if the breadwinner is out of the picture all of a sudden? Growing up uneducated and with a single parent... Now that would be tough. Do you get me?
[Silence. The Joker chuckles, taking it for a yes.] Good. Now, I don't want to scare you kids over there, but you are going to find out what happened. If I have to come down there? No no no no no. You know that will end badly. Now, find out who decided to carve a smile into Bozo's face and let him, uh, just give him a reminder as to whose shtick that is.
[More silence, and then a muffled "yes," before a click. The Joker sighs, and his feet scrape against the desk as he sits straight again, clearly addressing the mic this time.]
Now then. If I find out one of you people has anything to do with this, I will stop playing nice. Get me?
[The mic clicks off.]

Harvey only told me his name, and that he was a dangerous guy. I don't think you get it, Bats. I don't like this playing field unleveled.

I don't like that you consider it a playing field. I'm your enemy. Not Ra's.
If you want answers, talk to Dr. Crane.

Oh for fuck's sake, Batman. If it's Ra's who's killing my boys then it's my problem and there's pretty much nothing you can do about it.
Harvey's taking care of Crane. I get the big bad wolf.
[A long pause.]
At least tell me where I might've heard his name before.

Date: 2009-05-12 06:52 am (UTC)Ra's doesn't bother with steps, Joker. By the time you know what's happening, the pieces are already in place.
