Pffft!

Well, if you don't want to get the disposable ones like you do!

Ah, who needs 'em, Doc? As long as we get to have our fun...?

I admit, the ends not the means are what count. But I don't like to handle every dirty detail.

Some of that is fun, though.

Don't you like to have fun, Dr. Crane?

I love fun!

Perhaps we might have something to offer each other, then...

Call me Joker, by the way.

We might indeed. I think we have non-friends in common.

I prefer Dr. Crane, most of the time.

You mean the Bat? I'm happy to help you there.

And of course, Dr. Crane, it's your professional title, as Joker is mine. Though I may resort to Doc for short, occasionally.

Fair enough. This could be the start of something quite entertaining.

Of course it could, my dear Doctor! Just sit back and enjoy the ride...

So....have you heard about this "masked ball"that so many people we know are attending?

I believe the lack of invitations for us MUST have been an oversight.

My mistake! Looks like we ARE invited. (http://fever-crusade.livejournal.com/34360.html) It would be rude not to attend, am I correct?

Really? I figured with the recession it would be easy to find quality employees.

Sadly, not in Gotham. Everyone seems to have their own agenda.

...does Osborn Industries have a chemical division by any chance?

Gotham is kind of a freaky town.

OsCorp does, yes. Weapons and defense, and nothing says defense like chemical weapons, right?

No, nothing else quite comes close. So...ah, can I interest you in a formula for slow-acting psychotropes?

You're welcome to pitch it to the Chemicals department at OsCorp. The board and I have this agreement, I stay out of business and look pretty as the face of OsCorp, and they don't try and kill me before the remainder of my trust fund kicks in.

They're so touchy about that Octavius disaster. It could have happened to anyone, really.

Oh, yes. Tragic, really.

I may just send that along...

Like he was the first mad scientist to be unleashed on Manhattan.

Knock yourself out. OsCorp is always looking to add creative products and minds to the company. Are you wanting a job or just to sell your product?

Just to sell, really. I prefer to remain in a freelance position.

You'll want to talk with David Nichols. Good luck.

Why thank you. I prefer to make my own, though. *mumbles* No, wait, I make my own fear. I think someone else does that luck thing...oh, well.

You're slip-ping.

Which is where family comes in handy. Slave labor. Or really cheap labor at least.
