Considering capeandcowl;

You know, I'm not sure this is a good idea. You're nervous about writing this, and you're thinking about putting me in a game? Maybe you should just take a step back, and rethink it. Maybe rewatch the movies. Rewatch a second time, if you're really set on it. Take some time and figure out what you're doing.

But jumping into it headfirst probably isn't your best bet.

Uh, yeah, protip here: That doesn't generally work. Muns are pretty much dumbasses that way.

[stabilizing]

She's not a dumbass, she's just being...well. Impulsive isn't the right word, because she's been thinking about it for a while, but I think it's the closest word I can find right now.

[goingonfacebook]

Ooooh, she's freaked about it and doesn't think she's ready, but she's doing it anyway? Yeah, mine's been there. Not with me, but he has.

[ solemnly ]Honestly, the only cure is for her to either go for it or be neurotic about it for the rest of time.

[stabilizing]

I think that even if she does go for it, she'll still be nervous about it. Maybe watching the movies again will help, but I'm not entirely sure.

[goingonfacebook]

Either it's gonna help or it'll do absolutely nothing. I say she watches it again just to be sure, and then just goes.

Buuuut I'm also not known for my strong decision-making skills, so, your mileage may vary on that one.

[runsonbatteries]

That's true, your mun could do that.

Or--and this is just a wild suggestion, since we're ping ponging ideas here--she could be fun and just go with it.

[stabilizing]

We're not ping ponging anything. You're taking what I'm saying and...ping ponging off of that.

There's more to it than just going with it. She should feel confident in me before she does.

[runsonbatteries]

[He lifts his eyebrows at her.] So you're saying you don't want to ping pong with me, anymore?

But that sounds more like her problem than yours.

[stabilizing]

What? I'm not even sure what you're talking about anymore.

It is, but she's the woman behind the curtain, so to speak, so it's still partially my problem.

[liverletdie]

Jumping in headfirst is generally a terrible idea, especially if it involves the City.

But if she's considering it, you're probably already in trouble.

ohai

[stabilizing]

You're probably right about that. I was hoping I could try to talk some sense into her.

:3c hello there

[liverletdie]

Please. These types don't want to exactly talk sense, and bargaining doesn't exactly work either.

Eventually, you learn to go with it, and do what you can to control the situation from there.

[stabilizing]

Eventually being the keyword there. Then again, I work for you, or, well, a version of you, so that much should come naturally by now.

[hulk]

The nerves thing, that's-- It's kind of normal. On both ends, really, though maybe a little bit more on our end than theirs, and. Seconding the people saying the headfirst thing is probably going to happen anyway.

[stabilizing]

I can't say that's really the most comforting answer, but I know it's true.

[hulk]

Yeah, sorry, I know I'm not... You know. The reassuring kind.

[stabilizing]

It's okay, I think I prefer honesty to reassurance at this point.

[savedbatman]

They like to think they're...invincible. There's nothing we can really do but be supportive.

[stabilizing]

Unfortunately, she's not exactly making the supportive part easy.

[savedbatman]

That will never change. Honestly.

[stabilizing]

Well, I guess it's a good thing I'm used to people who don't make things easy.

[therealgenius]

Watch the second one like five times more than the first, though.

[stabilizing]

You obviously have no bias at all.

[therealgenius]

I'm the Bill O'Reilly of being unbiased towards the first and the second. Really.

[stabilizing]

And I'm not surprised. Really.
