Bruce disagrees with my opinion on him in these comics
... 'adorable' isn't exactly the image I go for, mun.
It's the whole "tortured man of the night" image you've cultivated for yourself.
It's the ears. Make ya wanna jus' chuck you under the chin and give you a piece of candy to suck on.
[Man, he's getting waaaay too comfortable in this place.]

[The bat-loom and the bat-glare, old familiar friends]
Oh please. Subjecting yourself to some bullshit crusade against all bad guys? All you hero types have some sob story, same as most of us. We just handle it in different ways.
Why not? You could pull it off.

Why can't I just be interested in trying to do the right thing?
[Bruce you're not fooling anyone.]

[And here we have the Batman, who looks as though he can't figure out whether or not he should be thunderstruck.]
I happen to think bats are adorable. [Esmeralda is just a big tease. Don't take it personally, Batman.]
[He's used to women throwing themselves at his feet actually, it's the 'being able to pull off adorable' comment that he cannot brain]
Luckily, you're in the minority.

Luckily or unfortunately? [She's not falling at his feet. She's dancing around them, trying to earn a few coins.
This might also involve a goat.]

[Well, metaphorically of course. Selina and Lois and Diana and Andrea and Barbara and Ivy and Harley and Cheetah and countless society women and all the girls I've forgotten off the top of my head didn't generally fall either.
It may be this overexposure that leaves him seeming unimpressed with her, pretty as she is.]
Luckily. I wouldn't be half as effective if people found me adorable instead of terrifying.

[They sure are!] You just do that when you have a piece of broccoli stuck between your teeth and don't want anyone to see, don't you.

[Esmeralda has met a terrifying person before and his name is Claude Frollo. Anyone else - especially someone who doesn't have religious/political power - is reasonably okay in her book.]
What do you do?
What do you do?
[Yes well she is a gypsy not a criminal. He is okay with gypsies not thinking he is terrifying, unless they also happen to be criminals - in which case he'd have to look at correcting that.]
Let's just say it's a little of almost everything.

Sounds like a gypsy to me. [She can do a little bit of everything too if it comes down to it. After all, gypsies have to look after one another and fill in for each other if someone is hurt or sick or arrested.]
Come on Bats- I mean Batman, I know you can be adorable at times.
[Certainly more adorable than certain clowns.]

I have a slightly more permanent base of operations.
[He seems mildly surprised by this.]
That's not something I expected to hear you say, Harley.

It's an alternate universe thing. It's Harleen now.
[It gives her the shivers just to be called Harley sometimes.]
