Mel got a note with her lunch.

She read it. She read it again.

Then she wrote a reply:

Dent,
Come talk to me. Purple/blue hair. Big red axe.
Mel Fray

The hair, the axe, the Security badge and cheese-fondue-for-one can now be found at her usual central table, where the Slayer is kicking back and wondering if Steph would know who he is.

"The version of him in my world was a good guy once." Steph shrugs, frowning, and catches fondue from Mel's-bread-which-caught-it-from-Steph's-bread with another bit of bread.

"Or so they say. I dunno ... even if he's still good in his timeline, he's going to snap one day. Have you seen him yet? What's he look like?"

[slayer_fray]

Mel's other hand wipes a piece of bread against Steph's.

"Haven't seen him yet," she says. "This place you start with good and fig it out later. This note about the Joker?"

[alwaysroomforhope]

Steph appears to have run out of hands to hold bread with. She gets a bit in her teeth instead to wipe against Mel's.

"Y'fff, mph fink f'o. Biff worryinf."

[slayer_fray]

Mel drops one piece of bread straight into the fondue and takes the piece directly from Steph's mouth.

"Yeah. Don't want Raph standing with a bomb again."

[alwaysroomforhope]

Ouhhh. Steph is Vry Sad now.

"I like bombs."

[slayer_fray]

"I like making Raph look like a spaz," Mel adds thoughtfully.

"K, he's on Joker duty."

[alwaysroomforhope]

Steph can't help but grin.

"I think this is the best idea you've had all year."

[slayer_fray]

"Really?"

Mel's smirking, but trying not to.

"I gotta step up my ideas."
