I've learned something about myself this flood.

I'm pretty open to being cougared.

Who was she?

Who was who?

The girl you're still in love with.

Oh. Barbara.

What's her story?

[And he will be clinging to this subject change, plz k thx.]

She was the first Batgirl. I've had a crush on her since I was a kid, but it was pretty one sided for a long time. She was shot by the Joker, paralyzed from the waist down and now works as Oracle. She's sort of like a 411/information broker for heroes. We started dating a while ago, she broke up with me, my life fell apart, and after I kind of got it a little on track, I proposed, she accepted, the universe almost ended, I almost died, and we broke it off.

[It's sort of dismissive, and maybe a little rushed through, but it's the truth.]

[Kirk doesn't even know they're changing the subject D:]

Was it mutual?

More or less. It was her idea, but. [Shrug.]

It was probably for the best.

Not really if you're still hung up on her a year later.

It's complicated.

I can figure that out for myself.

It still isn't healthy.

Jim, I'm fine. I appreciate the concern, but I'm pretty sure lack of sex never killed anyone.

It has. I can prove it.

Really?

Really.

[Not really. He means spiritual death of your ability to have fun.]

Uh-huh. [/does not believe you.]

You really do turn into a cantankerous, mean, hypocritical, and vengeful man if you swear off women. And that would be the end of the Dick I know and love. So I can't let that happen to you.

Is that what happened to McCoy?

Well. It's probable that he came out hating the world and instinctively me, but the divorce really made it worse.

I'm not going to turn into him.

I figured that part out when you haven't gone to medical school and he's too much of a crank old drunk to go fight crime in a cape at night. It's still a relevant example.
