PSL: Visiting Hours
Ed is a little insulted at the fact that they sent another sub par psychiatrist to oversee Arkham. He had toyed with the idea of just causing trouble and mayhem for the idiot, but decided that it wasn't as much fun without Oswald around to admire it.
Instead, he played along. Feigned breakthroughs about watching a neighbour hurt animals and being touched in places children shouldn't be. A tearful argument with a mirror about being abandoned by women and killing to stop people leaving like his mother, another a sobbing show of accepting that he was split and needed help and wanted to be normal and whole and healed and accept himself.
It wasn't as much fun as regular riots, but on the sly he entertained himself by instigating fights in the other inmates, in planting suggestions in the wardens in the guise of being helpful, hapless Ed Nygma who had troubles with people.
It took eight months, but they escorted him to the gates and gave him his belongings and another certificate that said 'Cured'. From there, he went to one of his safe houses, changed into something that suited his 'cured' status for now and made a detour past the GCPD to get a photo of Gordon's face when he saw him.
Then he turned up at Blackgate for visiting hours. Dressed in a pinstripe, three pieces suit with just a green tie as a nod to his past and a pair of cufflinks set with tiny emeralds in the shape of question marks.
He's virtually bouncing on the spot with excitement. He can't wait to see Oswald's face when he sees him sitting there, waiting.
