"Oh, no way. Tell me you didn't forget your keys," Gary said, incredulously.
Roy scrounged around in his tunic. "Why is it always me who has to remember keys? Are your pockets filled with Twizzlers, or something? Anyway, I could swear I picked up the keys before we left the asylum."
"Come on. It's always been like this. You're the brains, I'm the muscle." In desperation, Gary tried jiggling the handle of the rooftop door, which barely elicited a rattle. "Jeez, what did they make this place out of? Adamantium?"
"It's a home for the criminally insane. It's supposed to be
secured. No way in or out. Aw, crap! That jester chick stole my lockpicks, too!"
"Well hurry up and think of something. I gotta take a wicked dump." Gary was performing an improvised ballet.
"You and your pooping. You know, you wouldn't have to go so often if you ate something besides Nutty Bars. Why don't you just go over there?" Roy pointed to a far corner of the roof on which they stood.
"It's fucking freezing out here. I can't ... it won't ... I'm all
secured."
"Well what do you want to do? Knock on the front door and hope the Joker takes pity on us?"
Gary considered this, silently.
"No! No!" Roy slashed at the air with a hand, cutting off the possibility. "We are not crawling back empty handed. That dude is a psycho. He will totally murder us. You didn't see his private stash. You didn't see the Batman and Robin robots. They were
anatomically correct," Roy emphasized with horror. "And they were
doing things to each other..."
"If we don't go inside right now," Gary threatened, "my intestines are going to explode out of my abdomen, and it'll be on
your head."
"God. I hope not literally. All right, fine," Roy acquiesced. "But if the Joker murders me, it'll be on
your head."
"I can live with that, as long as I get to poop in a real toilet.
The two henchmen landed on the pavement at the front gate of Arkham Asylum. Gary hammered insistently on the huge door with the butt of his silk gun.
