"This is in our hands now." Batman says, you think it's supposed to be reassuring but he still has that gentleness in his voice, like you're fragile all of a sudden. It pisses you off.
"I could help." You offer, more out of pride than a real desire.
"You do." Batman says softly. "Keep helping Gordon. Serve the GCPD. That's your role. You're safer there too, it would be a waste to have John do all this for you just for you to jump into something out of your depth."
It wasn't said with the intention but you still feel the sting. Yet, in the moment, it really dawns on you. You're a cop standing in front of a man dressed like a bat and an actual magician. You may already be out of your depth, you glance at the door behind you.
>"You're right, you guys handle the big picture and I'll do what I've always done and worry about the little guy."
>"I'm already in for a penny. The sooner we wrap this up the sooner John and I can talk about fixing my tumor problem permanently."
>"I can't walk away at this point, John's help is just more reason I can't sit back. Admit it, John. My power would make your hunt through the Asylum a lot faster."
>"Seems like another excuse to ignore the city, I heard you helped out with Gorchakov only after Gordon turned on your lamp, we shouldn't have to call you for help. Let John handle this and help us wrap this entire Calc plot up, I have a lot of intel that you could use to help a lot of people."
>"Before I go I had some questions.." (write in questions for John/Bat before you leave.)
