... starting to think I should track down my 'verse's version of you.

[not_a_wonder]

She might not be in a good place, [Nessie cautions him,] I wasn't, not for a long time after being the Silver Swan. The physical recovery from the surgeries to remove the cybernetic implants was hard, but the mental scars were harder.

[no_ones_son]

I can get that.

I work with a lot of people who aren't. I'll keep it in mind.

If she's anything like me -- and she ought to be, since most of the people I've run into in this place seem to react the same to me across the board -- she wants to help people, and she wants redemption for her mistakes. It's not like Jason had give me the hard sell to get me on his side.

Just, uh... try to keep her away from situations where she might have to yell.

[He doesn't ask - it's not his business, and he can make some pretty good guesses.] Got it. Could always use a couple more contacts on the official side of the system. [Note that he does not use the word "legitimate.]

[not_a_wonder]

Yup. That was my Red Hood's reasoning too.

But really. I'm a social worker and crisis counselor... just what every lord of the underworld needs, right? [Nessie smirks.]

[no_ones_son]

You have no idea. Well, maybe you do.

[not_a_wonder]

Crises seem to follow you.

[no_ones_son]

I like to think it's the other way around.

I mean, it isn't, but I like to think so.

[not_a_wonder]

[Nessie giggles.] I will keep that particular delusion in mind.
