What demands an answer, but asks no question?
....
A telephone.
And I'm not here to answer mine so please leave a message at the sound of the beep.

Maybe we can play sometime together too.

I still can't believe mom was so stupid she decided to get involved with someone like him. Or that she could ever try to get someone killed.
I don't know how, but I'm gonna deal with her mess.
Get this done.

[whatam_i]

I'd like that.

People do stupid things when they're desperate, maybe he backed her into a corner or threatened to hurt you unless she accepted.

[hawk_shot]

I'd like that too.

She could have come to me. But she threatened Clint's life instead.
What if she heard about you?
She could have asked Fisk to hunt you down.

[whatam_i]

Fisk wouldn't have come to Gotham, it's not his city.

[hawk_shot]

Right.
There's codes between criminals.

No offense.

[whatam_i]

There are, especially when you get up to that level.

[hawk_shot]

I wanna ask you something and that I have better chances of finding an answer with you than with Ed.

You said that Fisk exploits people's weak points.
Do you think you can tell which ones are mine?

[whatam_i]

Of course.

[hawk_shot]

And that is...?

[whatam_i]

Your heart, your impatience and your over confidence.

[hawk_shot]

My heart?

[whatam_i]

You care about people and animals.
That's easy to exploit or use against you.

[hawk_shot]

So it would be better if I face him on my own?

[whatam_i]

Only if you have an actual plan and leverage against him.

If you just crash in there expecting to win you'll most likely die.

[hawk_shot]

.... Okay.

I guess... The trick arrows and Clint's experience are enough of a plan, right?

[whatam_i]

Honestly?
No.

[Is this how she works?! How is she still alive??]

[hawk_shot]

[Remember that over confindence you mentioned, Riddler?]

I'm gonna make it work.
Hell, I might not even face him tomorrow. I just
I don't know, I'm gonna get my mom out of danger.
And if he shows up, I'm going to make it work.

[whatam_i]

If you get an opportunity to take him out, I suggest you do so.

[hawk_shot]

As in killing him?

[whatam_i]

I know you're against it so no, but you don't have to kill someone to incapacitate them.

[hawk_shot]

OH
Yeah, that would be so much better. So, so much better.

... Thank you for taking that in account.

[whatam_i]

You're welcome.

[hawk_shot]

You meant it, right?
When you said you wanted to spend a night with me.

[whatam_i]

Yes, I meant it.

[hawk_shot]

All the more reasons to make it out in one piece tomorrow, huh?
