Re: log: steph/eddie.
We came back for your family. And, Stephanie. I believe that things can change for the better with you and your bat brood. I've seen it. I believe in it. This city? I fell in love with it when I didn't give a good goddamn what happened. When I could brush off another Joker laughing gas party or some fucking plague. But, it's different now, isn't? I'm going to be fucking upset if just one of those little old ladies at my church gets killed by a ninja or a Crane toxin. I'm different now and I see this city for the fucking death trap that it really is. [Eddie lightly touched her arms, thieving fingers running down to try and touch what she'd let him. For as angry as he was, he still needed her. He still felt empty when she was there and not all over him.] Everyone keeps telling me I'm a good man. And, I know it's because I've been trying, I've been trying so fucking hard to do good. To change things. But, rebuilding the town isn't going to do shit. Nothing I do is going to change anything.
