Right. But you're not going to do that. You're going to exercise restraint and keep on being annoying instead. [ The words had the sound of a command moreso than an assumption. ]
I recommend you don't try it. I have a gun, and I'm going to be very upset if you make me waste a bullet. [ In truth, he just didn't want to be forced to have to kill anyone. That'd be the absolute last thing his nerves needed. ]
[ Remington didn't draw his weapon. Cheshire didn't look armed, and he didn't want to hurt him more than necessary. And besides, he'd dealt with enough drunk, crazy and disaffected people in his time as a police officer to know that waving a gun around usually wasn't enough to deter that sort of person from attacking. They often didn't care what hurt them, or didn't have the capacity to understand what they were throwing themselves into.
He steadied himself, and quickly threw a punch into the lunge, aiming to hit Cheshire in the face, hoping to knock him back. ]
So, your idea of a good time is attacking people you've never met before? What is it, some kind of ego boost? Or the fun of not knowing who you'll get into it with?
[ The punch lands, and it sends Cheshire backward, but he manages to skid on his feed, lowering his body. ]
Less talky, more fighty! I don't need a psychiatrist.
[ Crazy he was, nearly devoid of any compassion toward himself. Unable to get close to others without tearing into them, he instead takes anyone who can survive near him as a friend. Even if they hate him. ]
And if you don't back off this instant, you may just get your wish. If I have to kill you to protect my own life, then you're going home in a bodybag. Understand?
Listen, man. I've ripped apart a ton of guys carting boom sticks... On purpose and not. You can either run off now, though I'm not sure how far that'll get ya, or...
Play with me.
putting glasses on anything (ducks, pigeons, etc) makes them look 50% smarter. not kidding.
[ The stage light is hurdled far too quickly to be easily avoided, and it collides with him, sending him crashing to the ground with a thwack.
Unfortunately for Cheshire, the impact caused him to accidentally fire a shot off before he hit the ground. Given that he is aiming for the hedgehog's head, it'll probably clip past his ear. On the bright side, at least it didn't catch him in the eye. That would've hurt. And killed him instantly.
And the good news is that the notch'll make a great conversation piece at parties.
After a moment, Remington throws the stage light off of himself angrily, sending it tumbling across the ground with a clunk. He stands up and glances around quickly, his hands trembling from the adrenaline as he grips the handle of his weapon. ]
[ The clip to his ear doesn't go unnoticed, but it's a few seconds before he actually reacts to it, far too amused with watching Remington get knocked to the ground.
He presses his ear flat against his head with his hand, his grin only widening. ]
Oh, did I make you mad, pretty boy? Come on. Shoot me. I've pulled bullets out of my body before... makes me feel more alive each time.

There are worse things. I could be trying to ruin her life. Or the lives of the other guys she plays.

Yeah? I am? Ahhh... I wanna just ruin your day right now. But don't be upset, it'll be fun. A lot of fun.

[ Cheshire cackles, wiggling his fingers in an exaggerated manner. ]
Come on, pretty boy, let's go a round. Or two. Or three, four five six seven eight nine--
[ Lunges for him. ]

[ Aaand you now have a gun pointed at your head. ]
Don't move!

[ But he's laughing now, instead whipping out a large stage-light, throwing it at the Echidna. ]
