maybe for you, but i know how to work a text message. just scored me some $100 by reworking yours.
:)

yeah? how you do that?

$100 fee.

Who's dumb enough to pay that?

i'll tell you for $5.

Riiiight.

Good luck pushing that, girly.

i'll tell you this for free - you need to up your game if you want to impress anyone. buy a new suit, a vowel. whatever.

If I ever want to clean up nice in preschool, I'll be sure to ask your advice first.

lol wow! how long did it take for you to think up that one?

real funny, the boys must love you

wouldn't know, i don't really care about other people's opinions.

nobody who actually doesn't give a damn has ever said that, but yanno, whatever works for you

you'd know, you seem to care about a loooot of people's opinions all the time

Only about the opinion of one or two who matter.

Fish liked you tho, that's a good thing.

fish never liked anyone but you. i'm not a kid that needs placating, but thanks for the attempt, bud.

bullshit, kid

don't try telling me about Fish. Fish liked people, Fish cared. She knew how to come out on top, but she also knew how to look after her own. She liked you.

[ selina doesn't reply for a long time. ]

i liked her, too.
i wish all the people i liked would stop leaving.

[ or dying. but what's dying in gotham these days? ]

I feel ya, kid

she'd want you to just keep doing your own thing and do it better than anyone else

Fish always knew best

do you think gotham would be better if she was still here?
no bias, buddy. give me your real opinion. you've been around a few mob bosses already.

dunno

hard to say, given everything

I think it'd have been better for everyone she cared about and Fish had a habit of caring for the little people, in her own special way

i liked that about fish, too.
the falcones don't know anything. they just sit on their big chairs and look down on everyone. even gordon looks down his nose at me. what makes him better than me?

fish knew what that's like, knew her from way back

woman like her from the bad side of town climbing to the top? aint something just anyone can do

if fish thought you are tough, you gotta be

is that why you're still in this shithole? for fish?

yknow

maybe

i don't know, no one ever really leaves gotham

i like it well enough

why?
you've lost all your hands because of this city
