Gossamer Location: Gotham Streets. Status: Curious as to how Joker survived such...situations.. ........."Oh yes." Gossamer replied, looking back over at the tower. "If my building was relocated, it's safe to say some of his other places of business have been as well. We'll do a little better if we catch him before his mood goes through the floor." she said, then turned back towards Joker. "So... it's quite a long walk from here. How would you prefer we get there? Borrow a car, take a taxi, roof hopping?"

The Joker Location: Gotham Streets Status: Ready to get going "Oh, we don't have to borrow a car at all," the Joker said, a sly look overcoming his features. He gestured his hand towards a building that was close to where Gotham ended and New York began... Or, was it where New York ended and Gotham began? No matter. "My base might not have made it here, but the condemned building I was using to hide cars I've used in recent heists and such DID make it. We have three or four vehicles at our disposal, including the most amazing ice cream truck ever."
The clown held out his arm, for Gossamer to take, and asked with a smile, "Shall we get going?"

Gossamer Location: Gotham Streets. Status: A ride beats walking or running any day.. .........Gossamer paused a moment and glanced down at Joker's arm. The thought again crossed her mind that this man wasn't her type physically, but...she couldn't help but let her curiosity eat at her. Some near death experiences, no problem with killing, and he seemed as though he knew how to have a good time. This could be fun. So, with a little smile, she stepped forwards and wrapped one of her own arms around his. "Of course. Although, I rarely see ice cream trucks in New York, so we might want to save that ride for another day." she replied.

The Joker Location: Gotham Streets Status: On the road again... Almost "Of course. I'll defer to your greater experience in that regard," the clown said, as they started to walk. Only a few steps later, though, Joker stopped. He looked down at the bled-out Thaddeus, asked Gossamer without looking at her, "Could you possibly magic up some gasoline, already soaked into his clothes?"

 Gossamer Location: Gotham Streets. Status: Curious to see if this spell will finally work.. ...Gossamer paused a moment and looked down at the man as well. After a few seconds of thought, she grinned. ”If I can manage to do the spell correctly, I can do you one better.” she said, then let go of his arm. She turned around, and walked over to the body before kneeling down next to it. ”I found a spell...” she began. ”That is supposed to change the properties of liquids from one type to another. I haven't quite mastered infusing one substance into another, so I'm not sure I'd get his shirt soaked with gasoline. But... I might be able to turn his blood, or at least that which I can see, into gasoline.” she said, then dipped her fingers down into the blood that was still pooled on the ground. She held it up, then looked over to Joker and grinned. ”I've tried turning someone's blood into acid once before... messing with their blood killed them before I even got half way through the spell. Should be easier to test out on some one who's already dead.” she said. With that, she looked back down at her bloodied fingers, and concentrated on it. Her fingertips began to glow green, and soon the blood began to glow. With her other hand, she magicked the blood on the ground into the air and let it fall over the man's shirt and pants. Then she took her glowing fingers and touched the open wound on his neck. Soon, the glow began to spread over his neck, and over the portions of his clothes that were now bloodied. When the glow faded, the light scent of gas began to wift into the air.

The Joker Location: Gotham Streets Status: Excited The Joker's smile grew to a degree that most people would've found discomforting, as his free hand reached into his jacket pocket. Withdrawing from it a match, he drew it across the side of his face closest to Gossamer, which not only lit it, but also revealed that there was no paint on his face; dragging the match would've pulled any paint away, and his white skin remained intact.
For the briefest of moments, he gazed into the flame, and then he looked at the prone, lifeless form of Thaddeus. "Thaddeus, old chap," the clown started, his smile morphing into something in between mischievous and sinister, "You're fired."
Then, he dropped the match onto the corpse, and the gas that had once been his blood ignited after a moment, the fumes carrying the fire onto and into him.
After this, Joker couldn't help but laugh out loud, letting it echo thorughout the neighborhood. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" Then, he sighed, and said to Gossamer, "Now, my dear, we're ready to go." Having never let go of Gossamer's arm, he began to walk again, leading her to his makeshift garage.

Gossamer Location: Gotham Streets. Status: Amused.. .........Okay... so he also had an amusing sense of humor that she could get used to as well. He still had a little bit more work before she decided if she actually liked this guy or not. "Of course." she replied, walking with him to his garage. "Riding through the city is a huge plus compared to my usual means of getting around the city."

The Joker Location: Gotham Streets Status: Oh, the things she needs to learn... "Well, I certainly hope you don't try rooftops in Gotham," the clown said, in response to Gossamer's comment, "They were once the Thieves' Highway, but now they belong to the Bat."
Although he'd elaborate if she asked, he didn't go into more detail automatically; he was used to the Bat not needing more explanation. The car drop was another block away, but they were walking on the right street.

Gossamer Location: Gotham Streets. Status: Curious.. .........Gossamer looked over at him silently for a moment, and grinned a bit when he didn't continue with his explanation. "This is probably my living under a rock thinking... but is this "Bat" really that much of a problem that magic couldn't even handle?" she asked. Then she waited for the laughter or a blank look of shock for her ignorance. If the rooftops "belonged" to someone, then she was sure he must have some notoriety. But... it meant nothing to her as of right now.

The Joker Location: Gotham Streets Status: Did... Did she just...? The Joker simply said as they drew close to the building, "I forgot about that rock for a moment. But yes, he is. Sure, you could stop him once or twice, but what he can't stop on his own, he has allies that can do it. In your case, I'd assume either Zatanna the sorceress, or Etrigan the Demon, if he's not busy doing his rhyming demon thing elsewhere. Magic is one of the few things he cannot always plan for, because it's so unpredictable."

Gossamer Location: Gotham Streets. Status: Curious.. .........Gossamer nodded her head and turned her attention back to walking again. "So there are magic users in this City too? That makes things a little more serious. I must say I've never gone against a Demon before." Gossamer replied. then she thought for a moment. "Perhaps a few times would be all I'd need to knock him down a few pegs though. Make the rooftops more accessible."

The Joker Location: Gotham Streets Status: That's the building! "Oh, Zatanna's worse than a Gothamite..." Joker started, stopping in front of a building that had the look of dereliction upon it, graffiti and cracks covering it, "She's a Justice Leaguer. The whole world is the Justice League's area of patrol. Still, though, I doubt she'd come here, to Gotham, without a direct invite from the Dark Knight himself. Uh, I mean, Batman. Batman is the Dark Knight." The clown made sure to explain himself this time, so that she'd get up to speed as soon as possible. He did NOT want a clueless woman around him at this time; if he did, he could just spend more time looking for Harley.
He opened a door into the building, and reached for a light switch. Flipping it on, the room lit to reveal three cars of various makes and models, and an ice cream truck that looked more like it was for warfare than delivering frozen treats. "And here we are."(( CBJ Note: Car #1 is here, car #2 is here, car #3 is here, and finally, my favorite, the ice cream truck is HERE ))

 Gossamer Location: Gotham Streets. Status: Now THOSE are some fun looking cars..... ..........Gossamer nodded as Joker explained. So she might have magic users to deal with at some point... at any given time. If these two cities had merged like this... with people and places she'd never heard of before... or existed to her for that matter.... It was a safe bet that any supers were flipping out with all the new additions to their cities as well. They'd be exploring... the same as she wanted to. ..........When they finally came to the building, Gossamer's gaze found the ice cream truck instantly, and her eyes lit up. ”Now that...” Gossamer said, motioning towards the Ice Cream truck with a smile. ”Looks like it would be fun to take around the town.”..........Then she paused for a moment in thought, and her smile turned into a grin. ”It would definitely catch everyone's attention in New York though. I'm not sure who all made it to the newly remolded version of the city, or what new faces will be there too... but unless you want to be tailed by the cops or a super, that's not a good one to take to the city.” she mused. Then she smiled and looked back over at Joker. ”Plus... my old boss would have a cow if you parked that anywhere near his building. It would be an eyesore for him, as well as a reason for the costumes to hang around his building.”..........Her dark eyes then shifted towards the other cars. They lingered for a long moment on the nice little Hurst... but she decided against that one as well. ”That one's pretty... but again, the old man wouldn't appreciate having it parked anywhere near his place. He occasionally creates bodies for those things, he wouldn't want someone thinking he's actually dumping one off somewhere.” she said, pointing towards the car. Her gaze, and finger shifted towards the older looking car with no top. ”That one... is a much better bet than the other two...” she began thoughtfully. ”.... but we'd be out in the open for anyone to see driving down the street. Most of the costumes I know are building level, and they'd be able to spot us easily. I'm not sure about you... but I know a handful that would try to tail me if they seen me out and about.”..........Then she turned towards the last car and smiled. ”If we're not wanting any uninvited guests following us about... I'd say that one will be the best mode of transportation. Inconspicuous... Blackstone probably wouldn't care if we just parked outside his building... seems like the best bet.” she said, then looked back at Joker and smiled at him again. ”At least for now. If you feel like giving me a tour of your Gotham later, I'm sure we can take one of your other nice little cars.”

The Joker Location: Gotham Streets Status: My babies, I love them so... "So your friend has an eye for taste," the Joker said, walking towards the car Gossamer indicated, "The 1947 Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith Cabriolet, one of only two ever made with Inskip's coachwork. You have no idea how hard it was getting this thing, but it was worth it."
He opened the door with no hassle (it had been left unlocked), and said to her, The other side is open, by the by."

Gossamer Location: Gotham Streets. Status: Pleased with the pretty little ride.. .........Gossamer smiled and walked over to the other side of the car. ”Oh yes, wait until you see the 'public' area of his building. Quite a few rare little antiques just sitting about to show off. They're the ones it won't matter if they're damaged, because he has another one locked up, or the “original” hidden somewhere.” she said as she opened the door and gently slid into the passenger's seat. Her smile grew a bit as she sat down and closed the door. The inside was just as pretty as the outside. Definitely something she could get used to. ”Actually... this is so nice... I might be able to get us into Blackstone's private parking lot. I should have the clearance with the guards, and this pretty thing is pretty enough that he'll let it sit in his guarded lot. It'll be first class treatment from that parking lot to his office.” she added.
