On considering MaskorMenace
Darling, while I think it's charming that there's a game you wish to send me to, let me remind you of three very important things. First of all, while the setting sounds charming, it does seem rather like I'd be Phantom Lady more than...myself. As I told cousin Ted, I'd rather that I come first.
Secondly, it's a far more modern setting than where you would be taking me from. A woman from the 1940s suddenly thrust into what you would consider the modern day? Certainly, I might enjoy more social freedom, but then again, society has never truly stopped me from being myself, has it? If anything, I have always marched to the beat of my own drum.
But third - and really, this is the most important - you simply haven't the time to give me the attention I need, and believe me, I do require attention. I'm not content to simply sit in one's head (as I have for awhile now, it's true) and do nothing. Even if not fighting crime, I must be out socializing or spending time with one of my many beaux.
Between work and school, darling, you have a few decisions to make.
