Do you want to make a difference in this world?

Ignore him. He's trying to get a reaction out of you.

[batricide]

Because ignoring Griffin worked so well inn the past.

[fledges]

That doesn't matter.
Come on, we've heard worse than this in our line of work.

[batricide]

Most people know better than to do that to me.

[fledges]

We have to build our reputations from the ground up here.
Unfortunately.

[batricide]

Speaking of that, I'm not doing this again.
I humored Strange when he said I should be the one to put these ideas and questions forward, he was wrong. I'm done. This was a waste of time.
You and Diana can fight for it.

[fledges]

I'll do it. Why do I need to fight with Diana for the honor?

[batricide]

She's Princess of the Amazons. Diplomacy is her wheelhouse.

[fledges]

Okay. So are you and I co-leading this or are you in charge?

[batricide]

I'm in charge.
But given how many times its been shouted at me, it will be a democracy.

[fledges]

Huh. When you brought it up to me a few weeks ago, I figured you wanted us both in charge.

[Because it's Kate, and of course she did.]

[batricide]

Is it a problem?

[fledges]

[Damian, you know how obsessively type A and pushy she can be.]

Why exactly do you want to lead solo?

[batricide]

I don't want to lead, period.

[fledges]

[????]

Then why are you, Damian?

[batricide]

Because it's something I need to do.

[fledges]

Is this a martyring thing?

[batricide]

No.

[ he's back to moody sulky boy. sorry kate. ]

[fledges]

[Oh look, her favorite.]

I'm just trying to understand, Damian.

[batricide]

I don't intend to be a dictator.

[ pause. ]

I just need to do some of this alone. For my own sake.

[fledges]

I get that, but "alone" and "team" don't really work. You're going to have to open up to people.

[batricide]

Look how well that goes.

[fledges]

Some of these people are being assholes. Some of them probably just don't know why they should trust you. I know this is hard for you, but you shut down with everyone, even me.

[batricide]

Whatever.

[fledges]

That's what I mean.
