[Oh, dear. Remember all that talk about him being cheerful? Biff just found out Judas was here.

He sounds extremely upset, and is turning to the only person who knows who he is: Bruce Wayne. The fact that there aren't any privacy filters would be a good indication of his state of mind.]


Bruce! Bruce, he was here!

[There is a jumble of Aramaic here, too quick and disjointed to be understood by anyone who might know it, though the gist would be that Judas was an inmate on the Barge.]

He was here and rehabilitated. He was forgiven! How long did his penance take? A year? Two?

[He starts shouting:]

What right did he have to a second chance? He never loved Joshua! He only loved power, and when he did not get it from Joshua, he sold him like a lamb for the sacrifice! How could they let him -


[That choked sound might be a sob. He continues weakly:]

He gave them Joshua, Bruce. He gave them Joshua. How can I stay here?


[A brief pause follows before he adds mournfully in Aramaic:]

Oh, Josh, how can you forgive him?

Seashells

[Biff settles down in front of the camera. He seems to be lightly grasping something in his hand, but it's small enough that it isn't immediately visible to his viewing audience. He grins.]

I have never been to a place like that port before. I have been to the sea, but this was a different sort of beach. This beach was for holidays and sunbathing and those little drinks with the umbrella in them.

Many people worried, when we went to port, about things like food and what we would drink. [He shakes his head, still smiling, and lowers his voice.] I did not worry.

[He holds up the thing in his hand so everyone can have a look. It's...a shell. Just your average seashell, this one looking a little worse for the wear, with a chipped edge and a small hole through it. It's a very unimpressive specimen, actually.]

This is beautiful.

[He laughs, looking a little abashed for a moment.]

Obviously, I have seen seashells before. Who hasn't seen them? They're everywhere, like rocks. But there are ways in which this specific seashell is beautiful. It is not like other seashells. Okay, it is a little damaged and there is a weird stain on the inside, right there.

[Biff points out the weird stain in question.]

But you can find beauty in things that are damaged, too. They are just beautiful in other ways. I can't fix the hole in the seashell, but if I work hard enough to wash it, maybe the stain will come out.

Even if the stain never comes out, the seashell is still very beautiful.

[He pauses, contemplating where he's going with this analogy.]

Persephone, you are amazing. You are able to make plants grow where there is nothing, and you love this gift. That love is what makes you beautiful.

I must teach you to love people in the way you love plants. That is your stain.

Private )

[Public - Audio]

[Biff sounds less boisterous than his first day, but no less cheerful.]

I have been here for two days. I haven't been assigned a dead criminal, but I have spoken to many of them. It's odd, though, that many people don't want to talk about why they're here. Don't you want to be redeemed? You're very lucky to have this chance. Now you can be good men again. Otherwise, you would just be dead criminals.

I'm excited to have a dead criminal for myself: I'll teach him Kung Fu. Or her. Are there many female dead criminals? Are they assigned to female wardens? If not, I would like to request Shego as inmate if she's unassigned.

No funny stuff, I promise.

I planned for Thursdays to be 'Independent Kama Sutra Study Day', but if it's a woman, we'll make Thursday 'Art Day' or 'Gym Day', instead. That would be more appropriate.

By the way, I notice a lot of people are saying embarrassing things which you regret immediately after saying them. I think it's the flood. You should stop making public journal entries.

Thank you for the popcorn, Martha.

[Private to Donny]

I was once thinking of becoming the village idiot.

[Private to Bruce Wayne]

Will you do a favor for me?
