====Blackgate Penitentiary====

Drury- Hey, um Hazard, right?

Hazard- For you sugah? Call me Becky. Becky Sharpe

Drury- Sharpe.. You wouldn't happen to know Chancer would you?

Hazard- You kidding Sweetheart? Why he's ma baby brother he is.

Drury- Oh, wow. Cool. He never mentioned you.

Hazard- Well let's be honest, most of the time you've known him he's been comatose or dead. Not that I hold nothing against you, heck he was always hankering for a kick up the rear y'know?

Drury- Oh sure.

Hazard- Sorry, I'm blabbing again... What can I do ya for honey?

Drury- Well I was looking for Meister? You don't know where he is do you?

Hazard- As a matter of fact, he was telling me he had some business with the other chiefs... Why, something botherin' you?

Drury- You could say that yeah.

Hazard- How's about you tell me all about it?

=======

Penguin- You're causing quite the controversy around here Mr-?

Meister- Meister, The Music Meister.

MoM- We're just wanting to know what you have planned. After all, we have heard an odd rumour or two...

Meister- All good I hope?

MoM- A well executed prison break is always good. Of course, the operative phrase is "well executed"

Meister- Meaning?

Penguin- Quite frankly we're not sure whether you have the skills to achieve something so grandiose...

MoM- Precisely.

Meister- Well, I wouldn't worry. You see I got myself allies everywhere, inside and odd. Friends on the other side, as it were. You do as I say and it will run like clockwork.

MoM- Really?

Meister- Mum's the word.

Penguin- Well I'm not quite convinced. "Friends on the other side" indeed! No one's coming for you Meister, least of all any friends of yours.

*To the tune of "Friends on the other side"*

Meister- Don't you disrespect me, little man!

Don't you derogate or deride

This ain't your world now, it's my world,

And I got friends on the other side

Inmates- He's got friends on the other side...

Meister- That's an echo, gentlemen. Just a little something we have here this side of Blackgate, your mind's playin' tricks, don't worry...

Come into my quarters,

Sing along, if you'd please,

maybe dance, maybe prance, just

put your minds at ease

I can see your future

Maybe change it 'round some, too

I'll look deep into your heart and soul

(You do have a soul, don't you Oswald?)

Make your wildest dreams come true

Call it hoodoo, call it poodoo

Call it lies, I'll never cry.

But I got friends on the other side

Inmates- He's got friends on the other side...

Meister- It's time, it's time, it's time to tell

The past, the present, and the future, as well

It's time, it's time, time we see.

Take a little trip into your future with me

*Meister turns to the Monarch of Menace*

Meister- You sir, crime's own royalty...

Gotta settle down, let's have some tea...

(Earl grey baby, that's the stuff)

What once was high, is sadly low

You gotta break outta prison an'

steal some dough.

The Brat and the Bat sure pulled a number on you eh?

MoM- Eh. Sad but true.

Meister- Now y'all gotta get rich, but prison's tied ya down. You just wanna be free, rule this stinkin' place. But freedom...takes green!

It's the green, it's the green, it's the green you need

And once you're out of Blackgate Prison, it's the green that I see!

*He turns his attention to Oswald*

Meister- On you, little man, I don't want to waste much time

You been pushed around all this time...

You been pushing around by batmen and by catmen and by ratmen,

You been pushed around so long, you could say it were a crime...

But outside prison, the you I see

Is exactly the man you always wanted to be!

Shake my hand. Come on, boys, won't you shake an old singer's hand?

*They do so*

Meister- Yes...

MoM- So... We're good?

Meister- Oh no, I didn't like the implications your midget friend threw my way.

*His goons grab the Monarch of Menace and Penguin*

Meister- Take them to the sewers. Maybe you can feed them to the crocodile man...

MoM- You can't do this!

Meister- Yes. I can. We shook. I did say you'd see green didn't I? I never said money...

Penguin- Bastard!

Meister- The times are changing! First Blackgate, then Gotham!

*they're carried off*

Meister- They're changing, they're changing, they're changing alright, I hope you're satisfied...

But, if you ain't, don't blame me,

You can blame my friends on the other side!

Inmates- He got what he wanted! He got what you had!

Blåbär

Herro there!

Alrighty so some of you are tagged. Well a lot of you...if you are the type of person who is like 'ugh tagged', then I'm sorry =] I thought I would seek a little council from my fellow camera hags. I say that in love, lol. Anyways. I have a photoshoot coming up and I was planning on renting some camera equipment. Off camera lighting specifically. It's a photoshoot of a guy for his album. I was thinking a night scene in the city. Some simple off camera lighting would be perfect for a shot against a brick wall or with the city in the foreground. I have no idea what sort of equipment I should be renting. All I have is my camera. This is such a loaded question lol I'm sorry. But if you are familiar with off camera lighting I was wondering if you could suggest what I would need. Stand, umbrella, flash, ect. I shoot with canon if that makes a difference. I think I solved this =]

Okay now about me... Haha. So I've been busy enjoying fall. Taking the camera out more. I got a cool strap from souldier @ photojojo store. It's a gold recycled seatbelt camera strap. I think I like it. I also got these cute photo clip hangers. Ill post links when I have more time.

Oh I am reading The Rum Diary and can't put the freaking book down! Soo good. I suggest it.

Oh and the ducks are getting big big and are living outside now in a huge cage that we had built for them. They love it! Oh and don't you love how ducks always look like they are smiling? So cute.

So what's new with you? ANything goood? =]
