I belong in Gotham.

But since I know you'll do whatever you want, regardless of what I think, if I end up there, I'll do what I can to help.

Also, I think three times is enough. You're not made of money.

It's not your fault.

Mine thinks - among other things - that it'll be great to have 'face twins'.

[constructum]

No. But I've gotten good at apologizing for her. Might as well not stop now.

[ why is she not at all surprised your mun would think that? :| ]

Arthur and Brendan are going to love you. [ sarcasm at it's finest there. ] Honestly, I admit, it would be nice to perhaps once, finally not look at all face twins as a threat. You seem nice.

[learnedtosmile]

Thanks. I certainly don't want to seem like a threat. Except maybe to people with a guilty conscience. [Oh, Blake.]

[constructum]

I wouldn't exactly consider what I have a guilty conscience. [ a small gesture of her hand, trying to find the right words. ] You'd be the same if you were in my shoes.

[learnedtosmile]

It might be better if I don't know. [Unless you're a murderer or something, of course. :|]

[constructum]

Trust me, you wont be learning about much. [ a beat ] With anyone to be honest.

Just prepare yourself to start going against everything you believe to hold true is all. [ it's the best advice she can give him honestly. if he takes it, well, that is all on him. ]

[learnedtosmile]

That bad, huh?

[constructum]

Yeah. [ her head nods slowly at that, letting out a long sigh. (she'd say, it sucks, but that really doesn't help much) ]

I mean, I may be the idealist type back home. But even here, there isn't much room for being who you really are. [ a beat, her brow arching slightly in question ] That is unless you are the type, that likes to cause chaos and suffering.
