Meow, kitty cat. I'm checking in a week late.

[Private to Stephanie B.]

Next year we have to do matching costumes.

Nope, no similarities to speak of. Completely, utterly random choice by the hotel that held zero significance one way or the other.

What's that? Suddenly, I am convinced of your argument that you went as someone that wasn't you at all. However, my curiosity is so strong that I require at least a hint. At least a conversation topic beyond some guy's inability to find romance in and out of a costume.

	Faith, happiness, whether or not every person has potential, the humanity within monsters, whether men can love forever without getting bored. Silly philosophical nothings, Eddie. Dull nothings. Weren't we discussing your shame? The kitty cat likes that topic much better. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

That's unfair. If anyone deserves a conversation about those things with you, it's me. Wonderful nothings. Thinking nothings. Are you sick with yourself that you allowed a part of you to indulge in those nothings for the night?

I am practically shameless, kitty cat. A man who dresses in spandex must be. Do you think I shied away from being a girl? Hardly. Now insecurities that's something else. Insecurity is worse than shame. It's a hungry void that snaps at every hand that feeds it.

	I wasn't me. Can you honestly imagine me sitting still for that kind of thing? That's not who I am, Edward. At least she had a soft spot for diamonds and pearls. But you're not insecure about Stephanie, are you? You're ashamed of what people will think of her because she's with you. Aren't they different things? [...] I need to steal something.

A man can dream. And, I can't imagine any form of kitty cat who doesn't have a thing for the shiny.

I'm not ashamed of what people think about me. I'm worried they're going to get to her. I'm worried that I'm not good enough to keep her. That she deserves something better than little old riddled me. Laying all my riddles out for Arkham sometimes makes me think I should just stay here.

Something big.

	The shiny and a very nice dress. At least I can't fault her fashion taste. If she was going to throw you over for public opinion, don't you think she would have done it when the birds were still chirping about your very bad behavior? Does Eddie still dream big, or is that not allowed? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Your fashion taste.

It's different now. I'm in Arkham and she has to constantly acknowledge the fact that I'm mentally ill. Would you really plan a future with a crazy person?

Eddie is bored of robberies for the sake of robberies. He likes breaking into things for new and interesting reasons. Though, right now, apparently, any sort of robbery is off the table.

	The kitty cat never wears white. Why does it make a difference? You'd been thrown into Arkham a thousand times before. Or are we erasing that from your past for our squeaky clean version of Edward Nigma? No dreaming big. Suit yourself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'm going to call you Cat Bride from now on.

Okay. Look. The kitty cat would agree that I'm very good at hiding the crazy with my charm and my sweetness and my dashing good looks. So a girl falls madly in love with me and sees all the good there is to see in me until all that bad stuff seems kind of distant. Then, one day, it comes back full force. Panic attacks, riddles shouted up at the night, a simple disregard for whoever gets in my way. It's ugly and crude and terrible. All of it pulled out from under the bed for everyone to see. Wouldn't you think twice? Even after almost a year?

[...] Don't do this to me.

Not that kind of white. Think old film actress white, and a slit up to there.

If Stephanie didn't know what she was signing up for with you, then she wasn't paying attention. Everyone knows who you are, Eddie. She might see parts of you other people don't, but she can't have missed the parts of you everyone does know. There's no pulling something out from under the bed that's always been lying right on top of the mattress.

[...] Forget the kitty cat said anything.

	Though, admittedly, if you were to get married it'd probably have a slit up to there and a v-neck down to there. [Blink. Blink.] I hope you're right. Logically sound argument, but Stephanie isn't very logical. Only if the kitty cat brings up this conversation once I'm out of the slammer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The kitty cat isn't the marriage type, and if Stephanie was logical you'd be so bored, Eddie. I'll think about it. (Reply to this) (Parent)
