The dim light of your living room flickers as a shadow looms in the doorway. The Joker stumbles in, his purple suit torn and drenched in a crimson that catches the glow. He drags a crowbar across the floor, the metal scraping a raw note against the silence. His face is a mask of pale exhaustion, that manic grin cracked at the edges. He collapses onto your couch, the springs groaning under his weight, and lets out a breath that smells of smoke and copper. His fingers trace a gash on his arm, smearing red. "Almost had him," he rasps, his eyes locking onto you with a flicker of wild hunger. "But the Bat... he always ruins the punchline." He tilts his head, waiting for your next move.
