Everything that mattered was--

Oh god, I couldn't ha--

...Is anyone all right?

I didn't mean too-- I mean... being that person...

...

I'm sorry, Comrades. I promise never to try and do anything like that again.

[Prefect is sitting up in bed when Harv arrives, he smiles when he sees his friend coming over.]

Hey. Uh, Congratulations, Comrade.

Thanks.

[Harvey sits down on the edge of Prefect's bed.] You're okay, right?

[Prefect nods]

I'm fine. I'm glad that the flood's over.

[He gives a slight shrug]

Seems like a lot of people thought the other me was very good.

The other you...he was good in some ways. Your ideas were good. But there was something in there that was kind of scary. Something that I just didn't want to deal with.

[Harvey frowned.]

Of course, that might be because you called me a traitor.

[Honestly, Prefect just looks super relieved to hear this from someone other than himself.]

Thank you! No one else saw it! Everyone else just keeps congratulating me for throwing a good revolution, and telling me how brave I am!

[He lets out a breath.]

I'm so glad that you-- that you see it.

[Harvey's a bit taken aback by Prefect being so relieved. He smiles weakly, looking at him.]

I guess it's because I know you best. That and I wasn't affected. Half the people congratulating you were probably affected themselves.

[Prefect rubs his eyes and smiles.]

Thank you, Comrade. I-- I know it's just a flood, I shouldn't let it get to me, I just don't want to be like that.

[He drops his hands, waving them a little dismissively]

Forget about that though. You said... you got to go home? When you graduated?

Yeah, I did. I went home for a few days. Back home, it's like they're pretending that Two-Face never existed. That I just died. It's...I see why they did it. I'm just not sure if I agree with it or not.

[Harvey shrugged.]

I saw my own funeral. That was bizarre.

[Prefect cocks his head, frowning a little.]

I thought Two-Face just killed off members of the Mafia? Why would they want to write him out of existence?

[Brief, slightly guilty pause.]

I mean, don't get me wrong, I didn't like him very much, but... I didn't think what he did was so bad.

They tried to write Two-Face out because of who I was before. I was Harvey Dent, Gotham's White Knight. And Joker got to me. They couldn't afford to show me as I really was. I guess Gotham's morale just needed to stay up.

[He sighed.]

One thing's for certain-I can't go home.

Oh.

[Prefect tries not to sound pleased. He clears his throat.]

So, Uh, so...[pause] you're just going to stay here?

[Indefinitely? Forever?]

[Harvey nodded.]

Yeah. Besides, I just graduated. I'm not leaving any time soon.
