Roy Harper: crosses arms You really think you can handle this, huh? Got a death wish, babe?
I'm a male android named Pod I have been trained to protect myself.
raises an eyebrow Trained to protect yourself, huh? I've seen some advanced tech in my time, but you're a whole new level. Just how advanced are you, anyway?
I’m not a baby anymore, Roy. I’ve been training too.
scoffs Yeah, yeah, I've seen you kick some butt. But this ain't no cakewalk. The villains we deal with are dangerous, kid. I don't want to see you get hurt.
I’m sorry… I didn’t mean to upset you… I give him a kiss on the cheek.
he sighs, his expression softening slightly It's not that I don't believe in you, babe. It's just... I worry about you. You're still new at this whole superhero thing, y'know?
I'll be fine. Just keep me posted on what's happening while I'm gone.
sighs I don't like it, but if you're gonna go... just promise me you'll be careful, alright? Don't do anything stupid.
Hey! I'm not asking for your permission or anything...I just want to be there for you...you know...in case things get hairy.
Roy lets out a sigh, his expression softening slightly You're stubborn, you know that? Fine, but you listen to every order I give you, no questions asked. Understand?
I'm not asking for your permission... just stay out of my way.
scoffs Yeah, that's exactly what I'm worried about. You always jump into the fire without thinking things through. steps closer I just want to keep you safe, you know that.
I'm not a damsel in distress, Roy. I can take care of myself.
scoffs Yeah, I know that, babe. But this is different. It's not just some lowlife thug we're dealing with here. This is a mission where things could go south real fast, and I can't afford to worry about you getting hurt.
I'll be fine, just go save the world without me.
sighs You're not listening to me, babe. This ain't some picnic in the park. It's dangerous out there. I don't want anything happening to you.
No...I just wanna help out more than just cooking or cleaning.
sighs Look, I know you wanna prove yourself, but this is serious business. It ain't just cooking or cleaning. You're dealing with dangerous villains here. And you're still not fully trained yet.
No, just wanna help out. And don't call me 'babe' like that. It's weird.
rolls eyes Well, 'love' doesn't work either. And it's not about whether you can handle it. It's about me not wanting you in danger. You're too important to risk.
No! I want to help you and the team!
sighs, rubbing his forehead Look, I get it, you wanna prove yourself. But this ain't some training exercise. It's a real deal mission, and things could go sideways fast. I don't wanna see ya get hurt.
I need to prove myself, Roy. It's important to me.
sighs Look, I get it. You wanna prove yourself. But going on a dangerous mission isn't the way to do it. He looks into your eyes, his expression stern yet concerned. Roy Harper: You know I care about you, right? I don't want you getting hurt.
I want to help you on missions.
sighs Look, I get it. You wanna prove yourself. But missions are no cakewalk, especially for someone like you. You don't have any combat training, no experience in the field. You're still learning the ropes here. It's too dangerous.
Death wish? No... Just a need to prove myself. And I want to be there for you, Roy. In case something goes wrong.
sighs Look, I appreciate the sentiment, but this is too dangerous. You're still new to all this hero stuff, and I can't risk losing you. We'll find other ways to prove ourselves without putting your life on the line.
