I already mentioned the cape so you're probably out of things.

But it was my own idea that you just reminded me of.

I severely doubt that you would receive votes just for having a cape.

But if I hadn't reminded you... it would have been a tragic loss, really.

Really? I'm not getting any votes, am I? Shit. That's embarrassing.

Do you wanna be in my cheap Godzilla knockoff?

Please. That was hardly my point. I was trying to implicate that you have much more noteworthy qualities.

Do you want me to want to be in your cheap Godzilla knockoff?

Are you giving me a pep talk, Mister Mayor?

Yes.

I may be. These sort of things are an unspoken part of the job description. I would be doing poorly to neglect such a duty.

I'm going to need at least one other reason. I only have so many days off. [ But he did look amused at the thought. ]

Oh shit. Motivate me to be the hero Gotham deserves but not the one it needs right now.

Everyone will see it.

I wouldn't say it doesn't need heroes. We were sadly lacking.

But -- is that good or bad?

Past tense on the lacking because it had a sweet mayor, right?

Yes. It's going to be an awful film.

Not what I meant, but I won't deny a generous compliment.

Well, I can't imagine it would hurt to establish myself as a poor actor in an awful film should I ever be removed from my position.

I know what you meant but shut up and accept my fondness and praise, dude.

You can't multitask?

Since you asked so nicely I'll oblige just this once.

I can, but a backup plan never hurts.

Good.

[ hand on chest ] Um. I'm totally offended I'm not your priority and just back up, Mister Mayor.

If you'd like to take care of my prior engagements for me so that I may dedicate my entire future to your films alone then by all means be my guest, Dave.

You know how fucked up it is to tell a time traveler you don't have time for them?

I certainly do now, though I would call that twisting my words just a bit.

I'm only repeating what you've been saying.

In misplaced context only.

[ Kids. ]

So, do you want me to erase your entire schedule to free you up or are you actually not interested in this in the slightest and being totally nice about it but you'll still come to the premiere and be supportive later?

While I am attempting to be nice, I wouldn't take the time to consider it if I wasn't intending on following through. [ Being in a his movie out of goodwill couldn't hurt public image, could it? Besides, he did sort of owe Dave even if this hardly began to cover the debt. ] Unless you were the one not interested and merely being polite?

Do you secretly wanna be a star? [ Wiggles eyebrows for a second then holds his hands up ] Um. No. I'm not being polite. I can't afford fucking politeness. Every actor up until this point has been some generic Genessian NPC person and me. I, like, need people to be in this.

I could already secretly be a star. You would have no way of knowing. [ Eyebrow wiggle, meet an equally ridiculous wink. ] I certainly can't say no when you make it sound so dire. Have you gained any other inquiries yet?

That's true. I would have no way of knowing since I'm not caught up on the porno industry. [ Smiiirk ] A couple but they're mainly focused on the exploding things part.

That... is not at all what I meant. [ He was taken aback for a second or two and honestly had to hold himself back from reacting too strongly. To be reprimanding was probably better. ] Isn't that more than a bit inappropriate for someone your age to be talking about?

[ ... ] What? I can't crack jokes about people fucking on film?
