{VIDEO POST; FAILED LOCK FROM THE JOKER}

[She's lounging on the couch at Cuddy's house, looking pissy and maybe vaguely unsettled-- she's just musing to herself, really, but letting it record because she wants to brag about how awesome the Fire Nation is]

Gotham was a waste of time. I don't even know if he had a purpose in wanting me to come, but whatever it was, he didn't accomplish it.

[Shifting a little, fully facing the camera now]

It's ridiculous how many worlds let their criminals run free. The Fire Nation has relatively little crime, because insane people are institutionalized and other offenders are either locked up or executed. It's ironic how many people here are so quick to denounce us for our worthy and justified war, while saying nothing about other worlds' lazy law enforcement and idle governments.

[This next part is muttered under her breath]

If he does anything like that I suppose I'll just have to take matters into my own hands.

Then you're seeing it wrong.

Right.

[pandorabox]

I'm not. I'm not the only one who thinks this, either. Who else supports your war, beside your own nation?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Does it matter?

[pandorabox]

Yes, it matters.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

No it doesn't.

[pandorabox]

You're an idiot if you can't realize how important foreign relations are to running a country.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Of course foreign relations are important-- but soon enough, there won't be any other countries but the Fire Nation. Really, it's irrelevant at this point.

[pandorabox]

You really think you're actually going to win.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

We're already winning.

[pandorabox]

Even though the one thing that really stands in your way is still at large.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

But lying low. He hasn't exactly been coming up against our armies at every turn.

[pandorabox]

But he's still out there.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

So what?

[pandorabox]

You can't assume you're going to win if the biggest thing standing in your way is still out there.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

We have superior armies, superior technology, superior everything.

[pandorabox]

Bigger doesn't always mean better.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I didn't say bigger, I said better. In the case of our armies, we happen to have both.

[pandorabox]

It's the same concept.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

In this case, we're bigger and better. Stop being an idiot.

[pandorabox]

Only when you stop being arrogant.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I'm being realistic. You're just thinking wishfully.

[pandorabox]

You are. You're the one saying you'll win, no matter what. I'm thinking rationally.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

And I have good reason for saying that.

[pandorabox]

Because your army is bigger and, in your opinion, better.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

We're not better just because we're bigger; that's something that you fail to understand.
