Following the disagreement between Joker and Finny, and many heartfelt, tearful apologies on Joker's part, the two had decided to check up on their newest endeavour.
With a brand new fishbowl, containing Finny, perched on his shoulder, Joker entered the stolen baked goods factory with a familiar smile on his face.
"Ahhh-!" He took a deep breath in through his mouth and exhaled out through his mouth, holding his arms out to the side in an exaggerated movement, "I've always had a sweet spot for bakeries!" He snickered at his pun, "Do you smell that wonderful aroma? Oh, that's right, you're a fish," He frowned as he lifted the bowl from his shoulder, reaching his hand into the bowl and gently pulled Finny out to smell, "How about now, my dear friend?"
Finny began to violently struggle against the fingers, the gasping sounded eerily similar to laughter as he desperately attempted to return to the bowl.
"Hm. I suppose you don't like it," He sighed in disappointment and released him into the water, "I guess not everyone has the same tastes," He smiled then gasped and slapped his hand to his forehead, "Oh! Silly me, I forgot that goldfish can't smell! Ha ha! Isn't that just HILARIOUS, my little friend?"
The fish glared at him with enough hatred and distaste to make Joker physically wince.
"Heh, I suppose that was a little cruel of me, but moving on! It occurred to me that you won't live for too long, so I'm going to show you around my life and my passions until that day arrives! Isn't that exciting? Don't lie to me, I can see how happy you are!" Laughing softly to himself, he adjusted the bowl to rest more comfortably on his shoulder before making his way to the centre of the factory.
Stopping before a conveyer belt, Joker cautiously set the bowl and Finny down on the belt, "Now you and I will have front row seats to the magic! I just love watching the items go by! It reminds me of watching all my bad memories and my sanity drift away while I slowly go off the deep end...!" His eyes glazed over in thought then he turned to Finny, "What do they remind you of my- Finny?" He whirled his head around upon discovering that both bowl and fish had vanished, "FINNY!"
Later on, down the line of the conveyer belt that Joker had unknowingly placed him on, Finny watched as the clown panicked in search of him, and Finny bubbled a laugh to himself which he quickly stopped as a henchman's hands lifted him up and away from his escape.
"Oh- oh my poor, poor pet! Daddy's so sorry that he lost you! I promise you it won't happen again!" Joker cooed, hugging the bowl to his chest, accidentally cracking the glass slightly, "Oops, I can't believe I did that again, your bowls are so fragile, who buys them?" He shook his head disappointedly and carried him back to where they had been before Finny's attempted run away, "Thank you, Jonny Jonny Frost!"
