[The blue alien looks unimpressed, holding a piece of paper and facing the camera. The note can't be read from here but he's clutching it tightly with his gloved hand. His tone is sardonic.]

Ha ha. Very funny. All the Deadpool humour and gags and I'm not buying it.

Show yourself.

.....

[A little later.]

Anyone seen a guy dressed up all in red getting into ridiculous situations? Yeah, that guy. Mouthy troublemaker. He often causes a scene so someone must have seen him. I doubt he can hide or keep quiet for too long. This joke has gone on for three days now and I think that's long enough.

Wade, get back here right now.

And if I did? What would you do about it? Find him for me?

[actualhumandisaster]

Maybe I'd just update my notes about you. But between you and me, it's still you who's the bounty hunter. Finding a missing person is more your job than mine.

video

[cadbane]

Except I'm not getting paid since I'd be hiring myself.

video

[actualhumandisaster]

Might be a new experience for you. Doing something for a friend without any profit.

video

[cadbane]

You think you know me, Skywalker?

video

[actualhumandisaster]

I think I know you well enough to not expect any acts of selflessness from you.

video

[cadbane]

And you're the opposite, am I correct? Selflessly helping out the galaxy.

video

[actualhumandisaster]

I guess you could say that. But in a way it's our job.

video

[cadbane]

Then how do you survive if you don't take payments?

video

[actualhumandisaster]

The Force provides us with what we need.

[ There, have a smug response. ]

But if you're struggling with survival, I'll gladly offer you one of my nutrition bars.

[ Ration bars. You've got to love those... ]

[cadbane]

[His expression looks disgusted for a moment.]

And what about those who don't use your 'Force'? Some of us have only ourselves to rely on.

video

[actualhumandisaster]

It's less about using the Force, but trusting in it. It guides us all if we just let it. Being Force-sensitive merely means to be aware of it.

video

[cadbane]

Well then you can say the Force guides me to my next high paying client. Then they can provide me with what I need.

video

[actualhumandisaster]

What would you be doing in a world that does not use any sort of currency, I wonder.

video

[cadbane]

There's always some sort of currency, even if it's an exchange of services.

video

[actualhumandisaster]

Services, huh?

[ He's just... Giving you this look. CAN YOU TELL HE'S TEASING YOU?! ]

video

[cadbane]

Believe me I'm well worth it.

[Maybe he's going along with it. Maybe he's just being too dry to care.]

video

[actualhumandisaster]

And yet your partner left you...

Don't worry. I'm sure you'll find someone who knows to truly appreciate you and your... Qualities.

video

[cadbane]

I assure you, you're no replacement for him.

video

[actualhumandisaster]

I know. I'd be an improvement. But I don't think I'm interested, thank you.

video

[cadbane]

It sure would be a fine arrangement for me for a Jedi to tag along for bounties, bringing some criminals to justice while I collect all the red bills as payment. After all, you only need the Force to sustain you.

video

[actualhumandisaster]

Which is true. But it's not exactly a Jedi's place to take a planet's law enforcement into their own hands.

video

[cadbane]

It's everyone's responsibility to keep the street's safe. Read the newspaper.

video

[actualhumandisaster]

That would make these Guardians obsolete, don't you think? Besides, if everyone deals out their own version of justice, there would only be chaos.

video

[cadbane]

The Guardians have their job. The police of each city have theirs. Bounties are put there for the rest of the crimes that haven't been dealt with.

I don't question that system.

[It profits him, after all, to have so many bounties available. He doesn't ask why the Guardians don't take care of it all.]
