[Joker hates silence.]

[It leaves too much room for thought, for doubt, for all the bad feelings that could fester in a human body to churn about like a witch’s brew. Yet what can you do? This… needs to be talked about.]


Yeah. It… wasn’t much of a choice. [Another let out breath, the shake in it able to be heard.] Us or them… It was that kinda situation.

[Joker swallows, and it feels like he’s choking down a jagged rock.]

It ain’t exactly somethin’ ya break out in casual conversation, nah.

[His fingers knead into his palm.]

But… This place is strange. We both know it. People get dragged in, odd things happen… And any of it could involve my past. And, not that long ago… I realize I owe it ta ya ta explain. Talk about it. Even though it’s… not pretty.

Yeah, but....

[Joker keeps glancing over to Angel as he talks, something the usually confident ringleader doesn't usually do. It's obvious he's looking to the little Pokemon for comfort.]

If ya weren't comfortable with it, Jims, y'know... ya don't have ta stick around. If it gets ta be too much.

[Envy has been in shoes similar to his, so Joker isn't surprised that he's stuck around, but other people? He wouldn't force that on them.]

[Sometimes, it astounds Joker the kind of good that’s still around. For all that he’s tried to hide it, the things he left behind back in England haunt him in a way that’s distinctly un-supernatural. He takes a breath, nodding.]

Fair enough. Anyway… Remember when I was tellin’ ya I was dealin’ with ghost problems? That was because… [Him and Angel grimace in unison.] One of the ghosts started lookin’ like a girl that I…

[There’s no pretty way to put it.]

...Because a me, she fell ta her death.

...Yeah.

[With quiet pattering, Angel crosses the desk and hops onto his lap, burrowing up against Joker’s shirt. Carefully, he wraps his arm around her, not wanting to break the silence again. Yet what he wants, in his view, has never particularly mattered.]

So… That’s what I mean when I say some things show up here. People who could show up here.

...I never wanted ta do those kinda things, but they got done anyway, and I'm not expectin' anyone ta be understandin'.

Ha, unfortunately, when ya hurt someone, they don’t always care about things like that. Like I said- I won’t blame ‘em if it’s someone like that who shows up here one day.

[personal profile] pipers_son 2016-11-07 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
….Depends.

[He rakes his hand through his hair, grimacing.]

If it were any of those kids… I’d just try not ta upset ‘em, if they could tell who I was. Same for the parents. Here, in Johto, it’s not like there’s much else ta do….

...But if it were the people who caught us…. Dependin’ on how it could go, it’d be trouble.

[That makes him jolt up, Angel’s own head turning to look at Jimmy in surprise, and he quickly starts to make a ‘settle down’ gesture.]

Hey now, Jims, you don’t gotta do that- it’s my business, I just- after everythin’, I thought ya should know, that’s the only reason I’m tellin’ ya about it.

...It means a lot.

[Letting out a breath, him and Angel finally slump together and he musses up his own hair.]

Yer one of the most important people around for me… So, even though I figured it might not end well, it felt dishonest… not tellin’ ya about it.
