016 - 1/2 of the Dynamic Duo!

[bythe_books]

Holy sardines, Batman! We've been kidnapped! Far as I can tell, there's not even a single sea-man steering this ship. What kinda fiend would do such a thing to us and this innocent troupe of amnesiac actors?

I bet it's the Joker! Boy, if I ever get my hands on him... Pow! I'll make him pay! Then again, we're on a boat. Boats go to sea. C... like Catwoman. And who would know how to steer a ship better than Penguin-- Boy! I bet the whole gang's involved!

You have been kidnapped? How terrible for you!

Would you like for me to rescue you? I don't mind.

[bythe_books]

I get kidnapped about once a month, actually. But don't worry, sir, Batman will come to save the day-- he always does!

...do you need me to rescue you?

[onderhaus.livejournal.com]

No...I think I am okay. I thank you, though.

Who is Batman?

[bythe_books]

Batman's my partner and mentor-- he's the world's greatest detective!

Your conclusions seem quite illogical. You have no real evidence that this 'Joker' is involved, I highly doubt because we are at sea that someone is involved simply because their name begins with 'C', and simply because someone can steer the ship doesn't mean they are doing so at the moment.

It would be prudent if you would calm down and analyze any actual evidence you have before making such claims.

You don't know these crooks like I do, sir! They don't think like normal, decent citizens.

[tadwizard.livejournal.com]

Perhaps they do not, but with no logical reason to suspect them, there is no way to be certain that they are involved with this at all. There are many criminals who may not think like normal, decent citizens. That is why they are labeled 'criminals'.

I agree with my friend. There are very diabolical people in this world; who knows what terrible things they can imagine in their minds to hurt innocent people?

[bythe_books]

To catch a crook, you've got to think like a crook! That's what me and Batman do to foil their evil plans.

'Holy sardines' indeed, Robin.

If only they had teamed up for good, what a better world this would be. We'll have to keep a keen eye on our backs.

...Let's beware and be wary.

[onderhaus.livejournal.com]

...Pardon me, but do not "beware" and "be wary" mean the same thing?

[bythe_books]

Batman sure has a way with words!

[bythe_books]

Got it, Batman!

A species of cat... Women, you say?

[bythe_books]

No, just one Catwoman. But she's quite a piece of work, that one! A real fickle feline!

[q-uery.livejournal.com]

Sounds surely too dangeorus for one humanoid, alone, to... Handle. I'll be sure to join your thorough search efforts. Efforts which may yet... Exhaust us, yet... Cannot be allowed to... Gain victory.

[bythe_books]

The Clown Prince of Crime, of course! You've gotta watch out for that one.

PREFECT IS TRYING TO COMMUNICATE WITH YOU!

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

{First there appears a line or two of meaningless scrawl, then there comes a long pause as Prefect curses himself for forgetting how to hold a pen, then finally a crazed scratching flurries up off your page.}

[bythe_books]

It's a riddle! Boy, wait til I tell Batman the Riddler's here, too!

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

[More frantic scratching, possibly a yowl of frustration can be heard, and another line of awkward scribbling as Prefect tries to write the word, "Idiot"]

[mimic-peter.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you're here to protect us then!

[bythe_books]

Don't worry, citizen! While Batman and I are around, nobody's getting hurt!

[mimic-peter.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid I don't know this Batman.
