“Every time I put on that suit, it’s my chance to help people who are in trouble. It’s my chance to look like a worthwhile human being. Sometimes I ask myself if Batman is just the suit or the man inside. Time to find out”
he just laughs “You’re a little too easy to mess with.”
"Wha-? N-No! The hell?!"
“Doesn’t taste as good as a bagel. And…spilled it one time. And it stained. Blipping hard to wash out. Very embarrassing few days for Batman.”
"Dude. Future boy. You *do* realize you can bring a protein shake, right?"
“Look. I was hungry. There’s not a lot of time to eat when on patrol.”
"JESUS, MCGINNIS-"
// Seeing Rebecca say being bulletproof would be nice and the mean part of me is like “I would rather be stomp proof” I laughed at my own joke. And then I cried
“People often compare Gotham to Night City. And some people wonder which is worse to live in. Gotham’s psychos and criminals tend to have horrifying gimmicks. They’ll play with you before they kill you. But they at least have someone watching over them. Night City? Well…they had Murk Man.”
“In the future we say forty fifty. You guys wouldn’t get it.”
// Could Terry beat Adam Smasher? More likely than you think Why? Because he’s goddamn Batman
“Sometimes I like to confuse enemies by eating things through my mask.”
“Yeah. From personal experience, having sex with criminals is something you’d /mostly/ want to avoid. Granted, my mentor did tell me about Selina.”
“There were a lot more heroes back in the day. I think most heroes in my time retired.”
“I am never explaining the mouth thing. Just roll with it.”
he looked down, clenching his fists “It’s…alright. Like I said, the pain and trauma? It helps drive me to do what I do. There are a lot of bad people in the world. And it’s my job to stop them from hurting others.”
She looks down, awkward and troubled, as if ashamed she asked for something so personal. “My apologies. I didn't mean to bring up bad memories.”
“I…was a punk. I always made my dad’s life hell. Got in trouble with the law a lot. He yelled but he never laid a hand on me once. He was strict and tough, but there never was a doubt in my mind he loved me… …one day, I…snuck out of the house. I wanted to do my own thing. When I came back, -c-
“Yours? What do you have to feel guilty about?”

// Who cares about lore accuracy? I mean, I do. Which makes Batman Beyond canon a headache because it both insists it takes place in the 2040’s but also insists it takes place 40-50 years from whatever the current year/canon is.
“I don’t think everyone has the same trauma. Or the same level of trauma. But…doing what we do? We definitely have some…trauma and guilt. …Sometimes though, I use mine as a reminder. A reminder to always try to do better. And help others not to go through the same pain.”
“I do. I am, I mean. Talking to people. And they say they understand, but how could they? How could anyone?”
“…I’m no mental health expert. Trust me. I’ve got my own issues. I dress up like a bat most nights. But…you know you can talk to people about it. Or find healthy emotional outlets.”
The second thing.
I…lives lost because of the corn or because you’re having a mental health thing?
So many lives lost because of me.
“I mean, you’re…really impressive compared to most humans. Take me for example. I’m a capable fighter, physically fit…been told I’m attractive. But I am just human. I can’t compare to a Kryptonian in terms of physical feats. But, there is more to dating…or mating, than just physical feats.”
“The fish are most schway, but *I* can already catch the largest fish this planet has to offer with my bare hands, so it is not a feat that I am wooed by.”
