Summary: Edward visits Oswald in Arkham in season two.

Arkham might not be such an eyesore if the city was willing to pay for an overhaul. The building looks abandoned from the outside, added with how long it takes for the gate to open, creaking as they try, stopping halfway, causing Edward to tap his fingers impatiently against the steering wheel. They finally thrust open, screeching, allowing Edward’s car to enter.

Edward doesn’t know what to make the asylum. He’s never been to Arkham, only seen pictures from compiled case files, fondly remembers bodies delivered to the station to dissect and examine.

A guard waits for him outside his driver’s side door, immediately takes his identification when Edward starts to utter pleasantries, makes a point of flashing his GCPD employee badge still attached to his blazer’s chest pocket.

“Inmate’s name?” The guard grumbles, turning his nose as he snaps Edward’s driver’s license to the clipboard in hand, copying the information.

“Oswald,” Edward enunciates it, sounds like a privilege to say it out loud, “Cobblepot.”

Harvey Tells Jim Gotham Doesn’t Need A Hero | Season 4 Ep. 9 | GOTHAM

“And yet here we are.”

Things about this video:

  • “Aw, Harvey, how can you be mad at me for standing at your desk and using your pen to sign your professional death warrant right in front of you, because you made one mistake that could easily be attributed to post traumatic stress, serious drugs, and other medical problems?  Come on, don’t be a bitch.  When you come back from fully recovering from the hideous wound you sustained because yet another weird criminal has a boner for me, I’ll let you sit at my knee and take dictation.”
  • Yeah, Jim, but… most of the people who are dead as a result of Oswald’s ascent are bad people?  I doubt that anyone is crying over someone like Maroni.  Fish, though I love her, was not a good person– and remind me, actually, who killed her the second time, the time that stuck?  Theo Galavan… next.  Grace van Dahl, et al– does Jim even know about them?  Hugo Strange breaking the laws of man and God to the tune of immeasurable suffering in Indian Hill was made possible by a deal brokered by Falcone, who was an agent of the Court of Owls.  Thomas and Martha Wayne, The Only Victims That Matter TM, were killed when Falcone was in town.  If Theo could waltz into Gotham when Oswald was in power, he probably could have done the same with Falcone in charge.  Jerome may have been aided by Theo, but he killed Sarah Essen of his own volition, because he was traumatized and angry at the world; Falcone couldn’t have stopped someone like that- no more than he could have stopped Gerald Crane, or the Ogre, and Falcone was quite possibly in league with Francis Dulmacher, so really, Jim?  Really?  Really, really?  Really.  Really???
  • Really?
  • Harvey’s justified ire and bitterness added five years to my life.
  • Fuck you, Jim.
