24 - Couldn't You've Put On a Proper Uniform?

[thinkb4ublink]

[Here's Slater in his usual long coat and 'you're all a pain in my backside' expression.] Listen, I don't know where you new lot are coming from, but stay out of the way unless you know what you're doin'. Unless you do know what you're doin'... in which case just don't get in my way, all right? Enough trouble...

Just here. [He sends the latest intelligence of what's going on.] Don't leave a mess.

If I am attacked, I will fight back with necessary force. [ That's her way of saying no. ]

[thinkb4ublink]

And murder isn't necessary. I've got enough dumbasses who think they're big willin' to kill, you start adding to that number I'm going to have my boys shoot on sight. Stay out of the way and you won't get hurt.

[technophilic]

If you attempt to kill me, I will not hesitate to do the same to you. I desire only to be left alone.

[thinkb4ublink]

Then make sure of that by keeping out of the way. It's called 'retreat'.

[technophilic]

It is not my fault if these men come seeking death.

[thinkb4ublink]

It's your fault if you kill them. That's kinda how 'fault' works.

[technophilic]

I will kill them if they attempt to kill me.

[thinkb4ublink]

If you can kill them, you can knock them out.

[technophilic]

I see no reason to waste such time.

[thinkb4ublink]

Exactly how is a bang to the head more time than killing someone? At most it takes the same time!

[technophilic]

It is simpler to hit hard.

[thinkb4ublink]

Repeat that back to yourself and tell me how dumb that sounds. I'll wait.

[technophilic]

Human physiology is so delicate.

[thinkb4ublink]

Millions of people spend entire lives without killing people. It's not that delicate.

[technophilic]

Delicate enough.

[thinkb4ublink]

The way you're talking, it'd be murder and not self-defence. You stay out of trouble, or my boys'll come down on you. This isn't a time we can afford to pussyfoot around.

[technophilic]

You may try. [ Murder, self-defense, what's the difference? ]

[thinkb4ublink]

You realise you're going up against a police force that takes on metas, don't you? [Even if the batfam takes on most of it, they can't be everywhere.] You're a murderer. Just wanting to dress it up in terms that make you sleep better. 'They started it' is an excuse that runs out when you are five.

[technophilic]

I am not afraid of you. [ And she will have no trouble sleeping tonight. ]

[thinkb4ublink]

My point, you sociopath, is that we're not afraid of you.

[technophilic]

Very well then.
