Periodically Penguin would get letters and texts or even emails from Edward about how he was doing. Edward was now on the down low and keeping a low profile, after pulling an disappearing act. It always would show up in a green envelope, with a question mark on the front written in crayon, and a question mark sticker to seal it. Penguin would always send back a purple letter and write "Too Edward" in the front in cursive. He was always sure to hide it when he was sending it. Niether letter had a return address written on it. Edward always knew when the note was from Penguin because of the wonderful penmanship. Penguin had very nice hand writing. Ed would give Penguin all the details about where he was staying and what he was doing as someone on the run. 

The Note 

Mister Penguin 

Hello Oswald, I have missed you greatly. I very much appreciate the gifts you have been sending me and I think about you everyday. Dont think for one minute I have forgotten you. As of now I have a lot of money saved up, and vehicle from the two men I murdered when I first moved to this place. I think I will eventually try to get a 9-5 job make up a fake name, and take on a new identity. I find it terribly amusing no one has caught on that its me yet in the video, but I didn't really give them much to go on. I know good old Jimmy and you know, but I doubt anyone can prove I was behind everything. So, enough about me though, tell me, how are you doing Mister Penguin? You are now basically a unquestioned Dictator. I know Gotham, and probably the entire country is probably better in your hands than anyone elses. I always admired your leadership potential. 

Yours truly Edward 

The Note back 

Dear Edward, 

Well, yes I basically own and rule everything. I promise I will make Gotham and anything else I rule better then before. I so glad that you have such faith in my ability. I have missed you a great deal as well and both Victor and I have noticed your absence. I have not told anyone else about the fact you are not dead either. The last one was a Rubix cube I sure you will solve that in no time. That does seem to be your thing after all doesn't it? While I know you are pretending not to exist anymore, I do hope we could hang out again some time. 

Best regards Mister Penguin

Mister Penguin 

Hanging out sounds like fun. You are going to have to make sure that no one knows where you are heading though. How about on the 22 of July. We can see a late night movie, have dinner, and maybe hang out at my apartment and play some board games. I also could open that special bottle of wine I been saving. I truthfully miss seeing you all the time as well and it sometimes can get rather lonely in this motel room all by myself. I still staying at my old place, no one suspects anything. The people in this town are completely blind. 

Yours truly Edward
