I'm frustrated; it's too short and too long at the same time. Too short because it doesn't have enough space in one of the arcs for certain story ideas I've got that would only fit in there and too long because...it's too long! The HTML file is GINORMOUS and it keeps getting bigger!
(It's been one of those days. Don't ask, I'm just pissed at everything that moves...and everything that doesn't--you know, just to cover my bases.)
Rawr.
-deep breath-
So to cheer myself up, I give you...the beginning to "Short Circuit".
There are reasons why nobody hugs Mister Freeze, you know...
"It was funny the way these things kept happening.
Not 'ha ha' funny, but sanitarium funny.
After close to five years of a quiet but intense feud, Mister Freeze had finally granted the henchwomen known throughout Gotham as the Captain, Al and Techie an audience with him.
Five years seemed like a respectable amount of time to the ice man.
They had, after all, head-napped him. Really, he should have waited more like ten years before he considered taking them off his 'to-kill-in-the-most-painful-way-humanly-possible' list."
