Joker Hostage - Tumblr Posts

The last one though
Okay so hear me out:
Joker kidnaps Danny, traditional tv setup to show the hostage
But Danny doesn’t show up on camera
The chair just looks empty
Everyone watching is confused; did. Did the hostage escape? Did the Joker just not notice? Was there even a hostage at all?
Joker’s not looking at the chair, he’s a talkshow host, very happy monologuing to camera and occasionally snapping back at some smartass remark no one else can hear
Now, the bats have to go stop him anyway
He’s up to his usual bullshit, and even if he doesn’t have a direct hostage to hurt, Joker becoming more unstable is bad for everyone
It’s just… so strange. The Joker loves a monologue but he keeps cutting himself off, it makes no sense.
Danny, meanwhile, is mostly behaving himself because it really is just funnier if the Joker doesn’t notice he’s threatening someone who no one else thinks is there, but there are limits
And not making clown jokes is one of them
