AN: The first of these is in the mind of The Joker. I've never written any sort of story or fanfic before, but I suddenly started trying my hand at a couple of shorts and this is what I came up with. The writing of this is slightly like a poem, but there isn't really a flow to it or anything, it's really just fragmented writing. I hope that this gives off a Joker feel and that I didn't make anything too confusing. I don't think I tied the idea of this one too well, but I do like certain parts of this. Please enjoy the first chapter!!

Laughter.
God's greatest gift to man.
Truly, what I love most about this world
Is the Comedy
The Irony, the oh so not subtle Puns.
I love the shrieking laughter most.
The kind that makes your sides hurt
Until they feel like bursting.
But the laughter can't stop there
Because the jokes are just too funny.
The world is an absolute laugh!
When the sides are aching
And the tears are falling
Falling.
The breathing-ragged.
Hands gripping for air that isn't there.
Can't. Stop. Laughing.
SMILE wider-tear, more tears!
Laughing, crying, laughing, SCREAMING
WANT IT TO STOP-BUT THE JOKE'S NOT OVER
JUST WAIT FOR THAT PUNCHLINE!
SOBBING AND GIGGLING-GASPING
AIR…HAHAHAHA….AHHA...HA
HARSH BREATHS, SMILING, SMILING
MORE LAUGHTER, LAUGHTER, LAUGHTER.
KEEP ON, KEEP-
He stops laughing.
His breathing is gone.
Silence.
The gas is all around us.
And there's a smile on both our faces.
Truly, what I love most about this world
Is the laughter.
Ha. Ha. Ha.
