The teenage girl already got that one, come up with something original.

Perhaps we should trade you for the one that smiles. He seems more human.

Your jokes were better when you were stealing my material.

If that's what keeps your self-esteem afloat, woman.

Hmm. No, being a genius who's also incredibly good-looking does that.

Do other people hinge their self worth on the likeliness you're gonna steal their jokes? Is that an Asgard thing?

Hardly.

And I seem to recall keeping people with you. Perhaps your genius isn't capable of saving the people closest to you. Pathetic.

Oh, you wanna play that game? Didn't you have a brother? Guess we have that in common.

I have no brother. Go read your mythology again.

I think you want me to stick to that topic, unless you wanna talk about horses.

Either way, you can't go tossing around that I suck at keeping the people I know around when you're here alone too. Unless you wanted to look stupid.

Ah, but the difference is I chose my way. Your life continues to spiral out of your control. No matter how beautiful or smart you are, you will never have control over your life.

Yeah, well, that's not what Captain Marvel thinks.

Anyone called Captain Marvel has probably made quite a few undue life choices along the way.

What's that supposed to mean?

Superhero names leave much to be desired. Though, it's amusing when mortals think them clever.

Iron Man for the man who has no iron in his suit. Captain America because America really needed to be represented by a steroid-pumped blond.

Superheros are people deluding themselves.

Precisely. And you're using one to . . . what, prove something? She's probably not even a real captain.

I thought so too, but she actually is one. Weird.

And I'm not trying to prove anything. She's the one who's so jazzed and fixing me because I could possibly go psycho and hurt people, cause apparently that's what hearing dying voices means to her.

How helpful. So she's doing it for the sake of others, not yours. How typical of superheroes.

I don't know which is more annoying. Using me to like talk to the dead and get away with being the worst person in the world, or trying to make it all go away so she can feel better about herself.

Both seems malignant of her. But that is how they function. That is how they all function. Use and then discard, so that the powers that be do not turn against them.

She doesn't do the first one. But, yeah. The rules don't really apply for them, people get hurt and it's their fault for getting involved or being at the wrong place at the wrong time.

That is why they're super heroes. It gives them the moral advantage.

No, no. Sherlock Holmes simply doesn't care.

Rude, no surprise there.
