I've seen Angels Fall from Blinding heights

They always go for the best of us.

Them and Us. It's always about this. Who are they? And who are we?

But that's tangential.

Two-Face
: The Joker chose me!
Batman
: Because you were the best of us. He wanted to prove that even someone as good as you could fall.
Two-Face: And he was right.

From blinding heights and further. At times like those, all you can do is feel guilty just for standing by and watching it happen, even though you know there is nothing you can do. You feel guilty of your association. You can't help but wonder whether you were responsible for them walking to that edge. Whether it was you and your "tainted" being that is somehow responsible for their own fall.

And you can't turn away...
