I have never had to answer so many dumb questions in my life and still be pleasant when doing it.

Going legit is a pain in the ass.

Phone calls. With people. On the phone.

Who does that anymore?

They should have an email-only option.

Rather have a carrier pigeon than a conversation.

I mean, really. 'do you like writing'? Noooo I make myself do this for shits and giggles.

What kind of a question is that? And why would it even matter as long as you're good at it?

Right. I don't get the point of small talk if that small talk is going to be the dumbest shit I've heard all day.

That's the point of small talk. Saying inane shit that no one really wants to hear.

Then don't make small talk, ugh. Just makes me wanna set fire to someone.

At least I may never need to see this woman in person. That is the small perk of the phone system. I may request all future correspondence in email so that I don't murder.

Especially if I don't wanna fuck around with the editor. Even if she asks dumb questions.

Hey, at least hanging up the phone means you can always end the conversation whenever you want.

Static disruption is going to be a problem the phone line has, for sure.

You'd be surprised. White collar crime doesn't actually punish. Just have to have enough money.

Again... depends on the prison and the person going to prison and probably the crime committed. I knew some people that got arrested just to have a roof over their heads, so sometimes it's better than the alternative.

Emma Frost.

And sometimes Quentin.

It's very confusing.

Well I have neither of them in my world. That I know of. Then again I listened to Magneto and Mystique and it didn't turn out great either.

Emma is a good guy who does bad stuff sometimes. Or at least that's how it was explained to me. Or maybe it was a bad guy who does good stuff.

And Quentin believes Magneto is the second coming of Jesus.

Morally grey tends to work for me.

There's a few people where I'm from who think that too. Slightly fewer now.

There was a big throw down on Alcatraz, a bunch of mutants were practically evaporated. A bunch were cured.

Yeah, some bullshit chemical concoction that the normies came up with to block our powers. I dunno how or whatever, but they basically forced a bunch of mutants to take it.

I mean, some idiots did it themselves, but they wanted to eradicate all of us.

You seem unsure. That's not super comforting for someone just starting this journey to legit-hood.

Well I've got this whole gig where I pretend to be a criminal mastermind so I can stop criminal masterminds back home. It's very confusing.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]embered
2018-07-23 02:34 pm UTC (link)
So... you need to pretend to be a mastermind criminal, to stop mastermind criminals, which means you have to be a mastermind criminal, so you also need to... stop yourself.

Yeah, that's already hurting my head.

To be fair, I was a little off my rocker when I came up with the idea. Also, Gotham is just crazy enough for it to work.

It really sounds like you would need to be a little unhinged to think that was a good idea. I mean, it's definitely a creative one.

Is that a common occurrence in your world?

It's not an everyday thing, but there's a relatively high rate in the capes and masks community.
