(Just going to explain why I started making him madder and madder. What kept him from having no meaning before was batman and just the fun of hurting others. Realizing he cant get that, hes trying to)
Joker gets out his knife, tracing shaped on Chershires face, the blade milimeters away
"See, there were these two guys in a lunatic asylum...and one night, one night they decide they don't like living in an asylum any more. They decide they're going to escape! So, like, they get up onto the roof and there, just across this narrow gap, they see the rooftops of the town, stretching away in the moonlight...stretching away to freedom. Now, the first guy, he jumps right across with no problem. But his friend, his friend daren't make the leap. Y'see...y'see, he's afraid of falling. So then, the first guy has an idea...He says 'Hey! I have my flashlight with me! I'll shine it across the gap between the buildings. You can walk along the beam and join me!' B-but the second guy just shakes his head. He suh-says... he says 'What do you think I am? Crazy? You'd turn it off when I was half way across!'"
I tug on the bonds, trying to get away from the knife, but to no avail. "T-that was a nice story..." I murmured, never taking my yellow eyes off the knife.
