When I've had the opportunity to prevent a crime, I've felt something more like a sense of relief than anything like gratification. I said there was a "satisfaction" to solving a mystery, but that's intellectual and after the fact. "Instant gratification" makes it sound like the confrontation itself is the motivation, and not the outcome, I guess.

Maybe that's just semantics. OR maybe that's just a reiteration of what you just said. Regardless, I won't tell the bat

I wouldn't second guess your instincts so much
because your observations are very astute
not just because I'm biased and trust my Bruce's
honestly I'd say you tend to analyze in a different direction than big B does
with a lot of different outcomes
it's part of why I like talking to you, kiddo
your perspective is interesting independent of who you share a name with

That's kind of you to say. Recently, I've found second guessing my instincts is a useful habit.
Usually I'm not so obvious about it.

What do you mean "different direction"? What's his direction?

I mean I may be biased because I'm very uhhhhh
the nice way of saying impulsive
intuitive!
but I've found second-guessing instinct can lead to a lot of waffling
trust your gut, even if your hunches are wrong, your gut feeling is there for a reason

it's hard to describe
but for starters he's generally more secretive and less communicative
which is a feat considering how getting details from you is like pulling teeth 😒
when you DO open up though...
your observations tend to be more caught up in the microcosm of the event
I guess that's how I'd put it
Big B's always been detail oriented but you seem to fixate on the unique categories of the individual situation
this is just from the brief time I've known you of course so I could be off

Sometimes it's the wrong reason.

You're not off. The myopia's from being an overprivileged 16yo with limited real world experience. You probably caught on to it because I've mostly questioned you about aspects of your history that remind me of my own.

omg kid
thats not what i meant
you're almost as grim as him
what I mean is you're good at focusing on things in a vaccuum and not letting outside details distract you
my Bruce is more of a 'everything is connected, let's look at the big picture' kind of guy

People always think I'm being grim when I'm honest. I didn't mean it in a bad way.

Tbh almost any way you differentiate me from him, I consider a compliment

[skywire]

I don't think either approach is wrong
or better than the other
but like I said it's part of why I enjoy your perspectives
when I can drag them out of you
honestly when I look past the name
you don't remind me of Bruce at all
you remind me of someone else entirely

[undisclose]

I think which is better depends on the context.
Who?

[skywire]

you don't like it

[undisclose]

That's fine
unless you say Damian and then I'm never talking to you again
