Fine.

I'm desperate and I'm lonely and I want someone to want me, even if I don't want them. They cooked like my mother and, honestly, she smelled like her and had this whole vibe of -- whatever. I'm pathetic but at least I can admit that!

[plotarmored]

You know.

Some things are better not to admit to.

You had a load of money, it can't have been that difficult to find someone to want you who doesn't also plan to undermine you. Not that I should complain. Just saying.

[beaky]

Well, I'm drunk and hiding out with a teenager, things can't get much worse for me.

... Are you suggesting I purchase a whore?

[plotarmored]

I don't know how this works, but rich guys always have those beautiful women draped all over them. You could have had that.

Men, I guess.

[beaky]

That sounds perfectly horrid.

And why do you assume men?

[plotarmored]

I figure you're gay.

[beaky]

Why?

[plotarmored]

You have a quality.

[beaky]

I see.

What kind of quality? Do explain.

[plotarmored]

A gay quality?

You are into dudes!

[beaky]

Explain what a gay quality is.

Tell me what I do that is 'gay' and why you would assume I'm into dudes.

[plotarmored]

You keep touching my arm. Always. Why?

You also wear more make-up than any straight man I know.

[beaky]

Detective Bullock is always touching your arm and honestly other places too. Does that make him gay?

I wear eyeliner. You know who else wears eyeliner? Most of Gotham.

Is that all?

not sent

[plotarmored]

NO YOU ARE GAY ALL OVER THE PLACE

[plotarmored]

No, Harvey is definitely into women. I have entirely too much evidence of that.

You were so close with Ed. He's got qualities too.

[beaky]

Oh good Lord, I will stop you there.

Your homophobia is tiring but expected. James, you think in a very backwards manner.

[plotarmored]

I'm not homophobic. I have gay friends.

My point is that you and your chief of staff posed for pictures like you were married, lived together and then you kept him on display in your club.

[beaky]

Jim, you just claimed I was gay because I wear make up and I touched you a few times.

You could literally of just said I had a crush on Edward, which it a pretty well known thing, instead of awkwardly throwing stereotypes at me.

By your logic, almost every man in Gotham is gay.

[plotarmored]

Who are all these men wearing make-up?! I don't know any of them! I don't even know that many women who wear make-up. Lee always went all natural.

You have awful taste in men, for the record.

[beaky]

Almost any villain in Gotham. Except Victor, he has no eyelashes so it's awkward. He does wear lip gloss though.

Lee definitely wore make up... how did you not know this? You are incredible.

Oh yeah, very aware. Between yourself and Edward, I have a type. Angry men who don't like me back. I'm trapped in a worrying pattern. I've never been more into Victor than I am now he hates me.

[plotarmored]

To be fair to me, a lot of you villains have a quality.

I'm pretty sure she didn't. Maybe lipstick sometimes?

Into Victor Zsasz? Wow. You are a masochist.

[beaky]

Please stop using that term. How do you have gay friends if you speak like this?

She wears make up, trust me. I met her too, remember? Foundation, eyeliner, blush and lipstick. Very subtle but beautiful.

Yep. I'm aware. He sends me threats and I find myself angry andnworryingly interested.

[plotarmored]

Well, no. I'd not try to avoid the elephant in the room, none of them have a crush on me. Far as I know.

Huh. You're the expert.

He threatened me too, to make me shut up. I guess I can see the appeal.

[beaky]

I'm shocked you have gay friends given, to my knowledge, you have one friend and it's Harvey.

Right?

We are both very messed up people.

[plotarmored]

Hey! I have at least three or four friends.

I have dated one woman who's never tried to kill me, but she doesn't want to ever see me again and I can't blame her.
