canon is gotham, probably spoilers in the comments

It's too early to call his motive. I wasn't expecting things to go this way but trust me, I'll take care of it.

Which means whatever you're thinking, I'm not game. Cobblepot aside nobody else is going to be following up on these cases so that still falls to me.

[ And it's not like he can count on anyone else to help him. ]

I'm not going anywhere until I figure it out.

[ You little :||| ]

We still have a conversation that needs to happen.

[eyescratches]

[8D]

Aboooout what, exactly?

[saintjames]

That isn't going to work with me.

[eyescratches]

I'm not sure what you're talking about, Detective.

[INNOCENT SMILE]

[saintjames]

We'll see what tune you're singing when I find you again.

[ In canon. Not here. Obviously. ]

You didn't give me anything to work with, for the record.

[eyescratches]

Well... [Give her a second to find something smarmy to say]

I told you what I saw. If you can't figure anything out from that then... maybe you're not a very good detective.

[Still a petulant child at heart.]

[saintjames]

You gave me information I already had.

[ Didn't we go over this already?? ]

And then somebody ran away.

[eyescratches]

[Look, she saw what she saw, okay.]

Well somebody handcuffed me to a pole. [Shrug]

You should really invest in some better cuffs. I mean, if I could get out of them, I can't imagine who else could.

[saintjames]

For good reason, apparently.

Don't let it go to your head.

[ And very slippery. You're going to be a pain in my butt when you grow up. ]

[eyescratches]

[This is only the beginning, Detective.]

Hey, I might not have run if you hadn't done that.

[You can't trap a cat]

[saintjames]

Uh huh.
