[slight frown at that, does not approve but not going to object either]

In the case of Joker, it is an easy decision. In others, it is not. There are a multitude of ways people can hurt one another, and I do not know if any one person ought to decide what those people deserve and even when they ought to receive punishment. Where should a line or, rather, the infinite amount of lines be drawn?

[he inclines his head.]

If you don't take an action because you're worried about a slippery slope, are you any better than the villains you let get away?

Why not call a spade a spade, why not do something, and take the rest on a case by case basis?

I did not disagree with you. If all that you have said has not changed his position, then I do not think much will and everyone is the worse for it.

Yeah. You're probably right about that much.

[he sighs]

It is a difficult path, but do not lose faith in yourself and those you choose to have around you.

I won't. I haven't, anyway.

[going to look pleased by that, content (don't be lying, jay!!!)]

I am glad to hear that.

[he is not lying.]

That surprising, huh? I may be cynical, but I have convictions.

[and then he inclines his head.]

Anyway-- I'm gonna go again. You on board?

I have no doubt. It was less to do with that than another matter.

Yes. Let us see what comes of another round.

I'll go ahead and go again, then.

[see-- time to purchase... this memory. He doesn't seem too put off-- this one's tame.

even if he nearly gets his ass kicked in it.]

I was wondering when I'd remember more of those two.

The three of you work well together. What else have you remembered of them?

Not much. Getting possessed by demons together is the most significant thing.

I can only imagine that was taken in stride by you all. Still, perhaps with time, you will remember something less involved— Calm, even.

That's probably about as calm as it gets.

[slight shake of her head, amused still]

You would not know what to make of a moment of peace, would you? If you ever recall more of them, I would be glad to hear of it.

Who needs peace when there are things to do?

And you really wanna know more about my team back home?

I will concede. For this round.

Yes, please. Are there more than those two?

No. Just them.

Well, and Roy. But I don't think he's around for most of this.

[he's not sure why they split]

That is unfortunate. You seem to have a good group between the three of you.

Three feels about right.

His loss.

Is it now my turn?

Yep. Let's see what round 2 gets you.

I would not hold too great a hope for it.

[and this, which has her lost in the moment for a beat, eyes flicking from side to side, before pulling it back together with a soft frown]

. . . That makes for one.

That makes for one...

[his face shifts away from joking-- a little more serious.

He doesn't need to understand the specifics.]

Your family.

Yes. Well, my mother and brother. Ravus survived, thankfully. My father passed before my birth while protecting mother from a daemon.
