"I know. I have to do this. For myself and for Lucy. Dad deserves to be put away. He deserves to die. If I was given the choice between killing my father a thousand times over and terrorising Gotham for a day…I would choose my father."
Act Your Age // 3/3 // CLOSED (DC villain next-gen)
Ember began to grow impatient, though she wasn't going to pry. It wouldn't surprise her if the two were talking now that she was gone. It felt like they had been talking in code while she was in the car, so as soon as she was gone, they probably started talking freely.
The others were nowhere to be found, so she sat on the sidewalk by herself.
With that, Clem opened her door and got out. She took a deep breath, closing her eyes and then opening them. She could almost hear Joker's laugh echoing through the academy and out of the building, as well as Lucy's screams of terror. Of course, they weren't there.
At seeing Clem out of the car, Ember was up on her feet in a matter of seconds. "Hey," She began in a hum, brushing her figure off. "How are you holding up?" This time she was more careful when she spoke, just so she sounded caring.
Though as mentioned before, she wasn't the best at comforting.

"That's not true, but if it's what gets you through, then that's what gets you through." Ember hummed, holding her arms out for a hug. "As soon as this is done with, you never have to come back."
"Hah, yeah. There was a reason this place was condemned all those years ago. Came as a surprise to many people, but seeing it now there's no doubt why."
Resting her arm on his shoulders, she gave her shoulders a slight squeeze. "Yeah, it's really creepy. Let's go beat the crap out of the creeper lurking inside."
