Walk and Talk.


Edward Nigma was standing at the counter waiting for the two drinks he had ordered.

"Here you are sir. Your extra strong expresso and….. chocolate frappachino?" said the waitress.

"That's mine!" shouted Jester as she grabbed the frappachino from the girls hand and walked out of the coffee shop.

Edward sighed. "Sorry about that. My little sister doesn't have any manners, I'm trying to teach her some." he said as he picked up his expresso.

The girl smiled. "It's fine sir. Believe it or not, I've had to deal with worse. Have a nice day."

Edward gave a small smile, but it was hardly genuine, nodded at the girl and walked out of the coffee shop.

Jester was standing there, with her hood up tapping her foot on the ground. "What took you so long?"

"Manners." Edward replied as he walked past Jester.

Jester rolled her eyes. "Manners are over rated. Say Eddie what are we doing tonight?"

Edward sighed. "I'm doing nothing. I'm just going to be at home relaxing."

Jester rolled her eyes. "Boooaarrrinnng! Edward you need to do something else. Why don't you pay Sphinx a visit? I'm sure she would appreciate the company."

Edward took a sip of his expresso. "Me and Sphinx didn't part on friendly terms last time I saw her."

Jester smiled. "It was only a lovers tiff. She'll get over it."

Edward narrowed his eyes. "It was not a lovers tiff. For a start I do not love her so it couldn't of been one."

Jester giggled. "Keep telling yourself that."

Edward glared at her. "Oh and who was it I saw flirting with the Boy Blunder on our last heist hhmmm?"

Jester blushed, which was hilarious because her white skin made it more prominent. "I wasn't flirting! I was just…" Jester looked up at Edward who raised an eyebrow expectantly.

Jester frowned. "Fine. Yes I was flirting."

Edward smirked. "Told you you were."

"Yeah but you were flirting with Sphinx!" cried Jester.

"I was not flirting with her." Edward snapped.

Jester smirked. "Whatever helps you cope."

Edward rolled his eyes but said nothing more.

They walked down crime ally to the narrows. It was where they lived and it wasn't much but to them it was home.

"So are you going to see Sphinx?" asked Jester taking a sip of her frapperchino.

"How many time must I say it? We didn't part on friendly terms!" shouted Edward.

Jester giggled. "Romantic terms then?"

Edward smacked her on the back of the head and Jester knew not to take the conversation further.

Walking past the iceberg lounge Jester and Edward had to run for cover when they saw a black shadow jump over the roof above them.

"What's he doing down here?" muttered Jester as she glared at the roof top.

Edward stared at her. "You have got to be kidding me?! This is the narrows. This is the bad part of Gotham were the crime rate population is almost as high as it's cockroach!"

Jester giggled. "You just told a joke Eddie."

Edward glanced at her. "I tell riddles, Jester, not jokes. Besides, it was hardly a joke."

Jester grinned. "I guess you're right. But I still found it funny."

Edward smiled at Jester. She was a messed up little puppy but she was nice to be around. Sometimes.

"We better get back to the hideout. I don't want to be caught by the Dork Knight." said Jester grinning.

The two rogues walked down the allys till they reached home sweet home.

Jester went to her part of the hideout and Edward went back to his machines. They didn't bother with each other after that, because they both knew that is they did, they would probably kill each other out of annoyance.

THE END.
