Moriarty from BBC Sherlock, Joker from Nolan's Batman trilogy and Voldermort, the most recognisable of characters ever created,  meet in the purgatory while waiting for their souls to be processed through. Moriarty and Joker belittle Voldemort for his repeated yet failed attempts at being the wizard overlord. Following is a conversation that wasn't. 


Joker- Hey Voldy, ever thought of dropping that spawn of evil down the window. Would've saved you the trouble. 


Moriarty- Or maybe, you're just Sir Boast-A-Lot with your jinxed self- anointed name?


Joker- 'Riddle' me this, 'Tom', who carries around a tiara, a locket and a pet they absolutely adore? You lost to a kid, c'mon man. Atleast, that cosplaying billionaire geek was a decent arch nemesis.


Moriarty- Careful Joker, he might summon his platoon of machiavellian sadists. He ain't a one man army like you or me. I still can't believe he waited for exactly one year between trying to get his hands on a trifling teen.


Voldemort- In my defense, I had a lot of snakes among my men(pun intended) and that loony old ruggedy wizard, argh, was always one step ahead of me. Not to mention that Lucius was absolutely useless.

(Grumbles in parseltongue)


Joker- Even Alfred could've easily done what you couldn't,  Dark Dork Lord.


Moriarty- Every fairytale needs a good ol' fashioned villain, but you lad, you sabotaged your own tale, you're the spindle to your own Sleeping Beauty.


Voldemort- (trying to be snarky) As if Sherlock jumped to his death and Bruce revealed who he is. What is it that you two are so proud of, eh?


Both in unison-  AT LEAST WE HAD THEM QUESTIONING THEIR SANITY. You and Harry could telepath and the most YOU could do was to show him things he yearned to know. 


Voldemort- I didn't do so bad either, I made him suffer. The only thing I take satisfaction in is that he will always have his demons by his side, reminding him of the scar on his forehead. 


Joker- You made him famous, Voldy, you, a 71 year old person with impeccable curses, were defeated by a bespectacled bloke who only knew like one spell. You brought shame on us villains, you're the anti-villain trope. 


Moriarty- In a world of horcruxes, the man with the sword is king, and honey, you should see Harry in a crown. (smirks)


(Voldermort begins sobbing, tears streaming down the slits where his nose had once been. Moriarty looks at him impassively)


Joker- One last thing, Voldy, do you wanna know how I got these scars….


Voldemort points his wand at himself and quietly mutters "Avada kedavra" 

Nothing happens. He was damned.  This was HIS hell.
