"Hm?" Vice hummed, still letting his gaze wander over the woman. "Sorry, little distracted gorgeous. Plus you're a little hard to understand. You might want to try words next time."
=============================
Doctor Mattis smiled. "Well... he did murder a man rather... badly. We won't be able to just let him walk anytime soon." he said. "But, with your help, we can certainly cut down his time here." Then he motioned towards the door again. "If you're able to... I'd like for you to come down again tomorrow. We have... quite a few things we need to discuss. But I do not want to get into too much on his first day here."
"As long as Dundee can help me with the children, I'll come down as much as you need me." Misty replied. With that, she walked out of the office, then followed the older man down the hall to head back to the prison cells.

Rogue's eyes rolled skyward. If she could speak clearly, she would. However, with the 'Hannibal Lecter' mask on; Marie could only make the muffled noises, "RWRSS RWROWN!! RIIIT. RWMEH. RWOT. OV. RIS!!"

Vice grinned and looked up at the woman's face this time. "Alright, alright... no need to get testy." he said. It was clear at this point that he was just screwing around with her. "Maybe we should make it a little easier for you to talk, eh?"
Reaching up, he grabbed the outside of the mask that was strapped around Rogue's face. The next moment, the entire thing slid off of her face; the straps actually sliding through Rogue's head.

"I had some time to think about it," the Joker said plainly as the last of the cuffs were removed, "And you, the ego-driven shrink that you are, happily gave it to me, hoping you'd get the breakthrough of the century." He stepped into his cell, and as soon as the door closed behind him, he turned around and smiled an incredibly wicked smile at Dr. Gray. "Was it worth it?"

The guards exited the cell and locked the door. Doctor Gray stood on the other side of the glass wall and stared back at Joker as they did so. "I suppose I won't know yet, will I?" she asked. "Honestly, I don't care about winning some certificate for understanding what goes on in the heads of people like you. I am, however, curious to what goes on between others. Your surprise and anger at seeing her earlier... and then what appeared to be affection just a moment ago."

Joker stood up straight and asked the doctor, "You gonna say something worthwhile, doc, or are you going to keep undressing me with your eyes?" He crossed his arms and added, "Hell, I'll even let you undress me, literally, as long as you don't tell Harley."

Doctor Gray arched an eyebrow at him. "I'll keep that in mind the next time you need to be frisked for weapons." she replied. Her tone dripping with sarcasm. She didn't seem to be unnerved by his remark, and she didn't seem to believe that he meant them either.

"Oh, goodie! I'll make a shiv just for you, then!" Joker exclaimed, delighted. He began to back away from the cell door, and chuckled a little. "Until then, ta-ta!" He sat down in the corner, grinning.

Dundee looked back and nodded back that way Misty and the doctors were coming. "I'll explain later. Right now, we MAY get y'all outta this. Be right back!" Dundee said and went back over to the doctors and Misty, C.J. still rather confused . . . before it switched to what looked like a cross between anger and casual indifference when he locked onto his almost-fiancee.
"Well, well, well . . . so do ya actually REMEMBER me this time, or you gonna hold up that ol' song and dance so they think I really AM crazy?" C.J. asked with a voice so barbed, it made razor wire seem smooth. Arell leaned up against the back wall, not really in the mood to say anything. After all, this was HIS fight.

Doctor Gray smirked back at him, then turned and motioned for the guards to return to what they needed to do. The grin was tight, almost forced, and she immediately went towards the other end of the hall after waving the guards off.
Yep. That was it. That was the last time she was voluntarily taking the Joker. Not because her life was in danger, but because she hated dealing with patients like that. Used her for what they wanted to do, mocked her, gave her little to nothing to work with, and then of course there was the sexual harassment. This day was off to a fan-flipping-tastic start.
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
“Old song and dance?” Misty asked, looking back at the Doctors.
“Mister Benoit, I'm afraid the woman you seen earlier was NOT the woman you thought she was. While I'll admit she does bear a striking resemblance to Miss Gallay here, and has the same first name... she wasn't the one you thought she was.” Doctor Mattis began to explain. It would probably be best to get this out of the way to save the headache as the talked.
“Just to clear that up now, first note the physical differences. The woman you seen earlier had scars on her face, correct?” he continued, motioning towards Misty's face.
“Your Misty doesn't. Nor is her hair styled quite the same way as the other woman. And her clothing is not the Arkham issued inmate uniform.” He said, motioning towards her clothes.
“Second... it would be quite difficult for her to be in two places at once. She just returned with your friend Dundee from Florida. And... has given us her side of the story.” he said, then looked back at CJ with a smile.
“As well as vouched for your sanity... and given us reason to give your recommendation for an early dismissal.” he said. “It won't be an immediate thing, of course. You did murder a man rather horrifically... but..” he said, then looked back at Misty. “She has helped to argue your case, and has agreed to return here as much as she's needed to help get you out of Arkham.”

"Wait, there really IS two?!" C.J. asked . . . oh great. This did NOT look good for him. "Well, I owe Blackstone or whoever an apology. However, if you don't mind . . . " he said . . . pausing to hold his head. "There ain't no such thing as 'my Misty' . . . she's her own person. She proved that one already." he said. However, when the doctor mentioned his killing of Savage, he remained undaunted.
"Meh, the sonuvabitch had it comin'. I'd do the same for lard-a** but I'd probably lose the saw in all that blubber." he growled. It was clear that he might not have seemed stark-raving-mad, he was still quite angry over the situation.
Arell on the other hand, just kinda looked back and forth between the two. "Down boy, Ceej." the big guy growled before looking up at Misty . . . oh, THIS was the one he was familiar with. He started to walk over. It was clear that, while neither one of the guys was very pleased to see her, ARELL was the one who seemed angrier, despite C.J.'s indifference and justifiability.

"I assume you're referring to this "Fisk" you had shouted about when you were arrested?" Mattis asked. The man paused a moment and looked over when he noticed Arell moving towards miss Gallay. While it was good to let everyone vent and get it out of their system... he didn't want anything to be said that would cause the woman to not want to come back and help.

"Straight up, doc'. He messes with our kids and Fisk has an appointment in Hell." C.J. said before getting moved to the side by a clearly enraged Arell. "Doc' Mattis, I suggest cov'rin' yo' ears." Arell said before looking at Misty. That little eye of his turning red, locking onto her position. "Misty, you re'lize what you done did t' my li'l buddy? Dat boy was namin' y'all's weddin' day an' you cut the ******** out on him! What in de flyin' ******** de ********' matter with you?! Don't you got any goddamn idea what kinda s**t dat boy's been through when you left?! EVEN WITHOUT DE COMMON ********' COURTESY OF SAYIN' GOODBYE?!" Arell raved, going into Drill Instructor mode within a drop of a hat, cussing her out with every single foul word in English, Spanish and French . . . and even making a few new ones in the process! C.J. watched back and forth between Arell and Misty, watching with a rather amused look on his face before facing Dr. Mattis. "Wait a tic', ain't I the one who's supposed to be that pissed off, doc'? I mean after all, I was the one who got dumped . . . sorta." C.J. said to Dr. Stevens . . . it wasn't too long before Arell finally started turning green and scaly. Not because he was going to transform, but the human side was running out of breath from unleashing the verbal carpet-bombing Arell was giving Misty. To the point where I kinda stopped trying to follow it after the thirty-fifth time Arell said "********" or any variation of the word in English. Which is weird, 'cause I'm the writer! "YOU EVER BREAK HIS HEART AGAIN AN' I'LL TEAR YOU A NEW ONE!!!!" Arell screamed before C.J. nodded towards Dundee . . . who used some blue lantern power to form a two-by-four next to Arell's head and . . . WHACK!!! Arell was dazed, but shook it off. "Okay, I needed that." Arell said as C.J. leaned against a wall, just looking at Misty. "Thanks, Dun'. But yeah, seriously. If ya didn't want to be in a relationship with someone, I hope you give the next guy the common courtesy to tell 'em before leaving. Hell, 'adios, a*****e' woulda worked!" C.J. said. It was almost as if he spent his big tirade on the OTHER Misty.

Doctor Mattis watched between Arell and Misty as well during Arell's venting session. Surprisingly... the woman was taking the verbal lashing rather well. She just stood there, staring at the angry man, and let him yell at her. When he was done yelling, and after Dundee had knocked him one, she calmly turned her attention towards CJ.
"CJ...." she said, her voice betraying the strong front she was putting up. "Have I done anything within the last three years to even suggest that I didn't want to be with you?" she asked, then glanced down at the envelopes in her hand. The one from her was the only one visible to Arell and CJ. "I know I didn't say anything when I took off... I was in too much of a hurry to leave a note. I wasn't able to try and get to the next city the train was going to stop at... and when I called the Circus a few days later... you weren't there. I had no way of getting a hold of you again. I.... I take it neither of you found the guys that were sneaking around the train the day I left." she said, looking back up at CJ. "I know... I know I should have said something. But...." she began, then sighed deeply and looked down at the letters in her hand. "But they'd already snuck into our cart once when none of you were around. At the last city we were in."

"I was fired after gettin' ditched." C.J. said . . . hiding his emotions well. He would have LOVED to pull an Arell and just let her have it, but something was telling him that wasn't the right thing. That didn't stop the tears from falling. He was clearly in a state of utter emotional turmoil.
"Wait, so those assclowns DIDN'T give up after Gallup?" C.J. asked, staring at Dun' eye-to-eye. A very rare thing for someone with Aspbergers. Dundee looked a little nervous.
"I wasn't there. Had to go help the green lanterns with an ambush from Sinestro. Got the call right after you ran off to the store." Dundee said with a shrug.
C.J. then turned his eyes over towards Arell, who looked around.
"I didn't see nobody." Arell said as C.J. raised an eyebrow.
"Okay, s**t don't make sense . . . and for once I had nothin' to do with it." C.J. said before standing there.
"You mean the four guys who were being suspicious? Before getting captured in New Mexico?" he said before realizing it. "s**t. Fisk must have bailed 'em out after the railroad police booked 'em!" he said, pacing back and forth. "Either they got really good at timing when I was gonna be out: which in that case, I'm sorry to have doubted you and put us all in danger . . ." he said, or thought again.
"Or you're lyin' your pretty li'l a** off." C.J. growled.
