[ She's unfamiliar with anybody in this video, but holy shit. ]

A serious one after this, I swear. gaveherwings December 20 2011, 07:18:45 UTC

Re-l Mayer. It is doctor-recommended that you no longer associate with Bat-People.

They drive above speed limit and have subconscious desires to shoot you.

[He's still watching only to numb his mind from the broadcast of a few minutes before, sitting upright and stonefaced.

And at first he's not surprised, or particularly bothered. No, really. He's known Batman is firm in his stance for justice in the streets, and that he is feared.

He's ready to not mind this ideology as a whole, because Utilitarianism, even the death penalty, aren't foreign concepts. Romdeau traitors and disturbers of the peace (exceedingly rare in occurrence) were promptly disposed of, a new dispatch sent to the population management, to uphold quota. Infected Autoreivs too, disassembled.

He also remembers a conversation with another faceless person on the network about this subject, not long ago. He did not object then.

But what does cause a violent reaction- lurching instinctively forward towards the television-

Re-l Mayer is in that lineup. After the first shot is fired- on allies, on good peopleHe shuts his eyes and cringes, at the sound of the BANG! that's aimed at her ( ... )

[Nothing about this surprises him, but he's taking notes.]

[She feels sick watching this, staring at the TV as he shoots Joker, Roman, all of the other 'Rogues' of his... And then his friends. His team. Her. She almost wants to throw up at the sight of it.

But...she knew. She knew that some part of Bruce hinged on the knowledge that he could slip one day. She just didn't know how far.

She's going after him.]

Re: reactions; rapturescreed December 20 2011, 07:53:07 UTC

[Another reason for him to dislike the Batman. Hate might be a better word.]

[This was what became of heroes. Sherlock knew this from the start, which is precisely why his trust in Bruce was so shaky, if even there at all. Even if Batman claimed he wasn't a hero, that didn't match his praises, didn't match the evidence of irrevocable morality. This was inevitable; this or reducing oneself into something spineless. There is no moderation for someone who climbs to the bastion of the proposed high ground of justice. He wondered how long it would be before Bruce actually tipped to either side.

Strangely enough, it wasn't as difficult watching himself get shot this time, considering how many times he'd done it on his own just a few nights before. The others disturb him more: Re-l, and Carrie, as they knew her (he'd seen that enoughSherlock could only imagine that Batman went running off after his Shadow as soon as the transmission ended. He was prone to such brash reactions when his vision of himself was affronted, and after all, Sherlock nearly did it too. He'd just... waited longer. This fact doesn't stop him ( ... )

[ He replies much, much later. Near early morning sirens. ]

Monstrous, indeed.

Kantian deontology. A direct contradiction.

caveatwalls December 21 2011, 07:18:42 UTC

Either way. Good to know how you really feel about competition.

[He's... half joking.]

kingofrooks December 21 2011, 07:36:08 UTC

Don't change your day job.

caveatwalls December 21 2011, 23:42:31 UTC

I'll keep that in mind the next time you deride my skills in that area, too.

Or when I start to actually care about your opinion.

kingofrooks December 22 2011, 04:31:06 UTC

The island might sink first.

caveatwalls December 22 2011, 04:44:35 UTC

I suppose I won't risk that for the moment.

You know of the connection to the suicides.

[A statement, not a question. If Batman doesn't know, he certainly should.]

kingofrooks December 22 2011, 04:47:48 UTC

That's a rhetorical question.

Five of the Shadows, and they return every single night. The only 'mystery' is how they got into the television screen, and how they can have such a psychic connection to us when we are not near them.
