[Arkham asylum]
Aug. 7th, 2013 10:33 pmBeing institutionalized is perhaps the worst sort of boredom, especially for Edward Nygma. Oh, sure, it's a fair bit better than being sent to out and out prison - his constitution's too delicate for Blackgate Penitientiary, no thank you - it's still... institutionalization. The therapists are mealy-mouthed and annoying. The other prisoners are, well... it's Gotham, quite a few of them have extracurricular activities like he does, generally in costumes less stylish than his.
Group therapy might actually be sucking the life out of him.
He can't really do anything about any of this, either. Not yet, anyway. So he wastes his days trying to keep himself entertained any way he can. Today, that's milling about the rec room since he's re-earned those privileges. He's been on very good behavior, honestly. It's just unfortunate there's nothing really going for the rec room beyond being a change of scenery. There's some terrible board games and a tv with very restricted viewing.
And, of course, other patients. Joy of joys. At least today he doesn't notice anyone particularly unpleasant, so he settles in the sofa to watch the same goddamn original Star Trek reruns again. Sigh.
