[ town filter ]

[ despite all the talk and the disappearances occurring in the town, uru hadn't stopped working till closing time at her job. if anything, they needed people to take some of those shifts because some of her own co-workers had changed their schedule around so they were working in the morning. it didn't bother her; they were scared obviously.

it... was a scary thought.

luckily, she lived close to her workplace so uru didn't need to think too much about it. she stepped up to her door and stretched her arms before she began digging into her pockets.

funny... she wasn't hearing a jingling sound... nor did she feel her keys in her pocket. oh... oh, crap. after another few minutes of searching her other pockets and her bag, she found nothing. she had lost her keys again? :/ and she couldn't go back to work because it was closed. it wouldn't re-open until 8AM.

with a glance in the castle's direction, uru sighed and starts off that path. ]

[Stumbles a little when she finally falls, letting her arm go once he's sure she's down and smoothing his poor rumpled suit out. Guh... why does he always get the troublesome ones...]

[Casts one last quick look across the street, and picks her up. Didn't want to have to carry her but at least she's tiny... And with that thought, he heads back towards the raggedy warehouse he's currently calling home, keeping to the darker, shadier parts of town as he goes. No need to attract more attention since she started screaming. Stupid brat...]

[ she awakens with a start and at first, it all feels like one long and terrible dream until she realizes something is wrong.

something is very wrong.

for one, her head is still hurting and she cringes, struggling to reach her temple only her hands are bound tightly. she finds her feet are, too.

panicking? panicking. ]

[She's alone when she wakes up, and gets to panic in peace for... awhile actually. But eventually... dis guy reappears, rounding the corner from a separate room]

[It's... Even from far away, it's probably obvious something's different though. Where before, he was all rigid authority and anger, suddenly he's... folded in on himself. Nervous. Like he's waiting for someone to inevitably slap him. And the moment he notices she's awake, he's hurrying over. Worriedly )8]

Hey, hey. It's alright. Don't panic...

[ the tone is different but it doesn't stop her from jumping and trying to scoot back from harvey as he approaches. oh god, where was she? she continues struggling, like she'll be able to get out from her binds. ]

Don't!

[Stops immediately, hovering a little ways away and... holding his hand up after a moment]

Sorry, I just wanted to check your head...

[ she does a double-take. pardon?

looking at him suspiciously. he had knocked her out and brought her here, wherever here was. she then remembers he had been firing at her, too. why would he be concerned about her head? ]

What?

[Winces a little... Ugh, he doesn't want to explain. He would've been happy if she'd just stayed unconscious. It's always easier when he doesn't have to deal with them himself... )8]

Your head... He hit you pretty hard, I just wanted to make sure it wasn't getting worse...

[ she flinches at the dull ache in her head. he really did...

wait. ]

"He"? [ she pauses. ] What's going on?

It's... [Frowns and glances off to one side. SIGH, pulls the coin out and flips it]

[N... noooooo] There's... me and... him. [And he kind of... gestures to each side of his face...] It's his plan, I'm just making sure you're okay for now...

[ eying that coin again. why does he need to keep flipping it? she's realized he's been doing it the whole time. ]

You're... two people in one body? [ her voice is quiet. ] Why? He -- you were shooting at me before.

[ clearly, he doesn't care for her well-being. ]

[Shifts back a step... UNCOMFORTABLE )8]

No... No, he was. He shouldn't have been. [He didn't flip for it... oh shut up Harvey you would've done the same thing no I wouldn't, I wouldn't be doing thi-- FUCK OFF and stop lying to me, hmm? You're not fooling anyone...]

[Shakes his head] I'm sorry...

[ this... just got twisted, didn't it?

a deep breath and she starts to look around the warehouse. there's nothing at all that stands out; boxes and dust and dirt. it's obvious no one's been in here for months.

she starts to shudder, peering back at harvey. it's clear this isn't two-face anymore... ]

Who are you?

[B... baww... Forces himself to meet her eyes. Which sucks. Hate looking them in the face while they're still in danger Weak Of course]

Harvey...

[ she doesn't stare for too long, his face honestly scares her. which also feels wrong on so many levels but... it doesn't even look human. ]

Harvey... and Two-Face.

[ so that's who "we" was. ]

Where are we?

[Hmm... Watches her for a moment after she looks away, before off to the side and flipping the coin again...]

[LKJSDF FLINCHES. Go... away. Dude, it's his turn you promised]

[Clears his throat] Sorry... I can't tell you.

[ jumping when she hears two-face speak and her eyes dart to him once more. ]

W...What do you want with Robin? You said this was about him.

[Meets her eyes for a second... He won't correct her this time]

He... hates him. This one especially... [Shifts] He wants to teach him something... Hurt him. [Head shake. SOB HE HATES THIS]

[ damian, please don't be stupid enough to go looking for her. ]

Leave him alone!

I can't...

[Just... tenses up a little. He sounds... ashamed of it actually. Wishes he could do something but the coin and Two-Face would never let him. He's so... weak. Brushes a hand through his hair]

Sorry. [He should stop apologizing...] Will you let me check your head now?

[ not like she can oppose him the way she is now. ]

You don't have to do this!

[But he... wants her permission first... augh. Shakes his head. NO URU YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND]

I won't. He will...

[ frowning. ]

But you can stop him, can't you?

[ this is crazy. ]

No. [Just... firmly. No he can't. Even if the coin hadn't come up in his favor, he wouldn't really be able to stop him...]

Please... Will you let me check your head...?
