Tim was *fuming.* He'd been flagged down by Doctor Caldwell a few nights ago and informed that her weekly session with Harvey had been cancelled because he'd been put in 'Administrative Custody.' Said with such derision that even he caught onto what was actually going on.

Solitary Confinement.

He'd done his research before coming to Arkham to ask to see Harvey, citing that he needed to ask him something about a case he was investigating. And... it wasn't a *complete* lie... he was just using this excuse to get as much bodycam and mask footage as possible of Arkham's current staff blatantly breaking state law. He smiled, soft and gentle, as he approached Harvey.

"No toothbrush and toothpaste, unfortunately, but I do have breath mints." He pulled the packet from a pocket and held it out for Harvey to accept. Solitary had an effect on all sensory input including touch so better to let him initiate things right now. "Geeze, that's a lot of blood under your nails. Hold on, I've got wipes with me, mind if I clean that up?"

Give him a choice. Asking a question might set him off, given he doesn't have his coin right now, but he'd rather have permission first. Even if the guard that had escorted him snorted at the gentle way Tim chose to treat Harvey.

He cocked his head, watching Harvey through the white lenses as he considered the phrasing of what was just said. Then he shrugged.

“Okay then I’ll call you Harvey. Figured it would be polite to ask first, you know your brain better than I ever will.”

He reached into the bag currently at his feet and was holding two more books when he straightened up again. And a pencil. Mechanical with a rubber on the end.

“Those are your books, Harvey, not mine. They don’t have to be returned to a library or anything, I bought them for you to keep. Same with these. I know how much it sucks to have a busy brain and nothing to do so I figured you’d probably finished those by now and picked up a couple of new ones. Another choose your own adventure mystery and a book of logic puzzles. The gridded tick-the-boxes-that-correspond-with-the-clues-given kind. Hopefully they’ll keep you entertained for a while.”

Two-Face. :)

I could absolutely take Two Face in a fight. And have done. And won pretty much every time.

[arobinwithoutbatman]

"Incredible. You hit one. Finally." - twcfaces

"I will dye your suits monochromatic"

[arobinwithoutbatman]

Two-Face taps twice on the glass between them.

"Why are you here so damn often?" @twcfaces

"Because I want to be." He replies with a shrug. "Because there's nothing wrong with a wider variety of connections."

Because Harvey had lost his friend and deserved to have something in the place of that even though he was too scared to do that as Tim Drake. It was objectively much safer to do this as Robin.

◭ : something your character does or would likely do that is unique or specialized to their interactions with @twcfaces :)

@twcfaces

Well... there's the books and constant visits. He's typically gentler these days too. If he knows Two Face is out and about, he's more likely to try conversation first as long as other lives aren't currently at stake.

[arobinwithoutbatman]

"Two choices; I can go and beat the crap out of this guy... or we can call the District Attorney."

Harvey's not even sure who that would be anymore, and that's probably for the best. (twcfaces, because I cannot resist this one for him)

Robin glared at the suspect running away down the street. Harvey was out on good behaviour, still had to see his therapist, but was having something of a trial run. Then a cruel smile split across his face as he tapped his comms unit in his ear.

"Hey Red Hood." He said in a sing song tone. "Wanna track someone down for me? He's been laying hands on all the girls in your area and just tried to harass a civilian I'm currently standing with. Mhm~ ...ugh yes, I'll owe you. Oh I am not doing your chores for a whole week! Chilli dog from your favourite stand and the grocery shopping to your specifications, that's ny final offer. Yeah? Awesome!" Robin immediately rattled off a name and description. "Pleasure doing business with you~"

He hung and up grinned at Harvey. "Problem solved."

"Don't freak out."

Very helpful, Two-Face. Except they're in a situation where they've both been snatched up by the same lunatic vigilante - a guy that must have mistook Tim as a conspirator, and the best advice that former, and somehow not yet disbarred (?) attorney Harvey Dent - Two-Face can give is 'don't freak out'.

It's very dark here, and strangely damp.

This sucks. (twcfaces)

Vigilante in the loosest sense of the word. Did this moron have any idea who was who in this city? Or how to recognise different gangs and goons by appearance alone? For one, Tim clearly didn't have a twin and two, Tim wasn't exactly a complete unknown in the city. He may mostly have been dubbed by the media as a shy hermit more focused on his personal life than anything to do with his family's business but people knew his face. The situation would be laughable if Two Face weren't right there alongside him in the dark and damp.

If he wasn't careful, Two Face might recognise him as Robin. And that kind of information was the last thing this guy needed. So he couldn't get himself out of this... damnit. At least he didn't have to fake any of his fear.

"Not exactly helpful!" He hissed back.

Well... at least he wasn't hurt? And didn't seem to be bound all that tight?
