THE LOST DAYS... Round 1.
It's all darkness.
The feeling of nothingness, of being nothing. Of not existing. You have no thoughts, you will never have any thoughts again. While that fact is not comforting, because you cannot be comforted anymore, it is true.
There's a certain rest to being... nothing. And to both knowing and not knowing, that your time is done.
So it's all the more unfortunate when you feel, because you shouldn't feel. And the feeling is burning in your lungs, which you shouldn't have. Because you are- or were- nothing.
And then, you inhale a desperate gasp of air and open your eyes...

Re: GOTHAM ...?
Well, school seems boring—she's pretty sure there's no warriors, much less any war, there at all. Obviously a waste of time!!
So she heads down the street, picking a direction essentially at random. How about... down the street to the right. ]
Re: GOTHAM ...?
He's leaning against a wall, and it's hard to tell because of the mask, but he looks... off put.
"What do you want?"
Re: GOTHAM ...?
Are you Jason?
Re: GOTHAM ...?
I'm gonna need a drink after all this shit.
Re: GOTHAM ...?
That's great! Ah—
[ hurrying up to him, then holding out her hand proudly, the tiny seed of a communicator centered in her palm ]
I'm supposed to bring you this.
Re: GOTHAM ...?
and somehow-- it expels a green gas.
This hits both of them.
And, well, Kiri Hellfire. What if the Joker gave you a person you could control?
and then no inhibitions whatsoever?
who would you 1v1?]
Re: GOTHAM ...?
But uh..... is "the institution of Heaven" a valid answer?
What about Lord Entropy? ]
Re: GOTHAM ...?
[Red Hood looks faded-- almost... green? Definitely not the right color. And how... did he understand her?
mystery.
But you know what, it's fine.]
Someone I can get to.
Re: GOTHAM ...?
To fight...? [ she giggles, though it's threaded with an edge of mania ]
None of the things I want vengeance on are here right now, but...
Well, Jason-senpai wants to fight you. That would be fun, right?
Re: GOTHAM ...?
[see, there is only one jason-senpai.
and she was not talking to him.]
Re: GOTHAM ...?
Are you ready too, Red Hood-san?
[ This close to her true nature, though, it's all so effortless—like she could look right past the Lie of the world. Like she could see the True Thing beyond.
Re: GOTHAM ...?
And Red Hood's conceptualization of Jason leaves him chasing after only one of them.
He starts to move back the way she came.
