So that's one good spot- it's hard to keep yelling and being angry when everyone is agreeing with him. Now, the bad news is that Joker doesn't like the look of that arm, and he warily presses his own wooden hand against it. He really hopes it doesn't lash out at him...
"Yeah," he says simply. "Everyone gets hurt at least once, livin'. And I don't think there's anyone who's only had it happen once." Waiting a beat, he continues, trying to peer around the vines to Steven. "But, y'know, if my mum hadn't left me, I wouldn't have met Doll. I wouldn't have met anyone in my family, who I'm workin' in the carnival for."
He jerks his head back towards Peridot. "And, by the sound of things, Peridot gettin' stranded is how the two of ya met, right?" Another pause before he looks back to her again. "...Or wrong?" People's business back in their home is usually something he keeps his nose out of. Right now, he's only guessing.
....He'll say nothing about the concert kidnapping. There's no saving that one.
