Thus Spoke Zarathustra in 50 sentences about Joker/Cuddy, without any Nietzsche involved [1/3]
Lisa takes as long and convoluted a route back to the hotel as possible, but she can still feel him following her - no matter how improbable it is, he seems to have found her.
2. WALTZ;
"I heard," he says to her over the community, "That I'm supposed to like dancing - uh, with the devil, I think - and I wonder if you're supposed to dance too."
3. WISHES;
God, if only he would leave her alone!
4. WONDER;
She wants to ask him, sometimes, about the scars, but she knows better.
5. WORRY;
Its Rachel she's most worried about when he starts showing his interest in her, but a selfish part of her is scared for her own safety.
6. WHIMSY;
His stories start to get more fantastical when he's excited about whom he's talking to; the lies he tells Lisa, he thinks, are his best.
7. WASTELAND;
"I'll burn this city to cinders," he says over the phone, staring at the hotel room that he imagines she's in, "Unless you come to dinner with me - alone."
8. WHISKEY & RUM;
He tells her that he used to be in AA as he orders a drink at the hotel bar; she's too distracted by latex expertly covering his scars to listen.
9. WAR;
Then, he tells her about how his father died in Vietnam; she's too busy noticing that he's a natural blonde to pay attention.
10. WEDDINGS;
He talks about his first marriage and how the bride wore red; she's too repulsed by the fact that he looks so normal to believe him.
11. BIRTHDAY;
She's horrified that she thinks he's almost attractive like this, but he finally grabs her attention by mentioning Rachel's birthday (something about getting her a present - God knows what he'd get her, but she knows she doesn't want him to).
12. BLESSING;
When the check comes, she heaves a sigh of relief; he pays in cash, leaves an inordinately large tip, and insists on walking her to the elevator.
13. BIAS;
"If I didn't know better," he giggles, "I'd say you like this lie better than the real me."
14. BURNING;
Azula is in the elevator and, when the doors open, the Joker curses and laughs as he's chased out by fire-encased fists - looks like they'll really, really need to find a new hotel.
15. BREATHING;
When she answers the phone, she's half surprised that he doesn't just breathe into the receiver; instead, he assures her that the city is safe and that she had been a lovely piece of eyecandy - and since she still remembers him looking normal, that's momentarily flattering.
16. BREAKING;
His next post is a video of him, back to greasepaint and scars, dancing around to experimental polka music; she can't see that handsome, normal person in him anymore but nonetheless, her resolve to be repulsed by him has been worn down a little.
17. BELIEF;
He knows that she thinks there has to be some truth in him, somewhere; he has a feeling that it'll be extra fun to prove that she's wrong.
18. BALLOON;
He talks about filling a balloon with anthrax and then letting it float away into the sky; she logs off after that and refuses to talk to him for weeks.
19. BALCONY;
He stakes out the new hotel for those weeks of non-communication, watching the balcony of her room from an alley beside a Starbucks - "And Juliet is the sun," he sings.
20. BANE;
He doesn't hide the fact that he's constantly watching her, even if Azula is around; he can see the transformation from anxiety to exasperation as it occurs and he knows, he knows, that eventually, he'll get his way.
Thus Spoke Zarathustra in 50 sentences about Joker/Cuddy, without any Nietzsche involved [2/3]
It's only after he sees the lights go out that he slinks up to the fourth floor hotel room and uses a maintenance card to open the door; nobody was stirring, not even a mouse.
22. QUIRKS;
She folds her socks like someone with a control problem - the underwear drawer, though, that denotes slight OCD tendencies.
23. QUESTION;
"Are you strange, Doc - strange without admitting to it?"
24. QUARREL;
He shouldn't have said a thing; she's hyperaware and snaps awake, and is quick to throw anything that isn't nailed down at him.
25. QUITTING;
"Quit it," he growls, getting a hand on her throat - and where in the world is her knight in shining armor, he wonders?
26. JUMP;
This is more like a mugging than he prefers; jumping people in back alleys or dark hotel rooms is so banal, he can hardly stand it.
27. JESTER;
"A patient shows up at the doctor's office," he says, ignoring her kicking and punching as he sits on her stomach and holds her by the neck, "saying that he's seeing pink striped crocodiles every time he tries to sleep - the doctor asks him if he's seen a psychiatrist," he giggles and leans in, "'No,' says the patient, 'Only pink striped crocodiles.'"
28. JOUSTING;
This is one of those moments where Lisa can really prove to him that she's a strong, capable woman; unfortunately, she's too busy trying to get away to do any kind of proving at all.
29. JEWEL;
He lets her go after a minute and flees as quickly as he came in; she sits there shaking for a while until she sees that he's left a ring on the nightstand - like a hint at a secret.
30. JUST;
It's only when Azula bursts into the room, moments too late, that Cuddy realizes that she just barely escaped a very bad situation.
31. SMIRK;
He sits in front of the computer and watches the community for hours, smugly satisfied when Cuddy doesn't post about what had happened - nor does Azula, which is just so peculiar.
32. SORROW;
After a few days, she starts feeling sorry for him - it's as though stalking is the only way he can interact with women.
33. STUPIDITY;
The pity isn't helped by the fact that she can't forget how normal he could look; it's just a trick, she thinks, but that doesn't change the fact that it's worked.
34. SERENADE;
She wears her headphones and starts listening to his last voice post on repeat, trying to pick some form of normalcy out of the giggling tirade on art culture.
35. SARCASM;
"Oh, yes, Joker, I'm completely intrigued by you," she types, but the sarcasm won't float through text - especially when it's not really a lie.
36. SORDID;
The Narrows are an absolute mess (like him), but Lisa keeps her eyes on the map in hand - she's going to put an end to this, one way or another.
37. SOLILOQUY;
He can see her approach, can practically feel it, from the boarded up window in his room; he imagines what she might be expecting and thinks of just how he can tear her expectations to pieces.
38. SOJOURN;
She hadn't told anyone about this trip she's now making - they might only find out when she disappears.
39. SHARE;
His paranoia is obvious when he scrambles to let her in, checking over her shoulder and double-locking the door after her, like he was expecting her to have given the directions to someone else.
40. SOLITARY;
There's nobody in the house, she realizes; nobody but him and her and that's sort of like being locked in a tiny room with a dangerous, rabid dog.
41. NOWHERE;
He circles her, giving her no way out - as if the locked door and her actually being there hadn't already tipped her off.
Thus Spoke Zarathustra in 50 sentences about Joker/Cuddy, without any Nietzsche involved [3/3]
There is no safe ground here; every move they make, every word she says, every demand she makes for him to leave her and her family alone - not only do they fall on deaf ears, but they only incite the riot boiling under his skin.
43. NUANCE;
She notices the way his eye twitches when she says Azula's name, like he wants to smile or laugh or scream, and the way his mouth twists when he smiles, showing all the cracks in his chapped lips.
44. NEAR;
When he steps towards her, spiraling in from a wide circle to a narrow one, she makes no move - she knows that it would only excite him, and she doesn't want him excited.
45. NATURAL;
"Don't you realize, doc," he says as slaps a hand over her mouth and stops her arguing, "that this is the only way this could have ever ended?"
46. HORIZON;
If eyes are windows to the soul, like they say, Lisa can't see a damned thing, no matter how far back she looks - there're just miles and miles of bad intentions with no light rising to chase them away.
47. VALIANT;
"It was a good try, you know, coming here as though it was your plan all along."
48. VIRTUOUS;
She's a shining beacon of all the things people like about the world - like Harvey: a bureaucrat with a pretty smile, brains and good intentions.
49. VICTORY;
That's what makes it so delicious, when he gets her in bed with him, all scratchy and bitey and stubborn down to the very, last, drop.
50. DEFEAT;
In the end, though, he's dismayed to find that - unlike Harvey - she's not so easy to break, and she's not young enough to be ashamed of one bad mistake.
