â youâre awful calm about it. â
â donât pretend you do this because you care. â
â you take bullets like a champ and donât whine about it. â
â donât beat yourself up. i wouldâve done the same thing. â
â i wanna do what you do. i wanna be just like you. â
â listen to what iâm saying. you know in your heart iâm right. â
â you stared down your demons, and youâŠyou conquered them. â
â youâre incredible, and you make me want to be a better person. â
â iâm strong enough, and i can do this! â
â i should have prepared you better. your life has been soft and painless. â
â thatâs the tricky part of the job, balancing what you wanna do, with what you need to do. â
â iâm still working on my one-liners, but that one is really bad. â
â do you want to talk about yesterday?   you look like you need to talk about yesterday. â
â i didnâtâŠi didnât mean to hit you so hard. iâm sorry. â
â hey, donât walk away from me. â
â no, i donât trust you. not anymore. you broke that. â
â itâs natural to doubt yourself, but if you can push through that, and do what needs to be done, youâll do just fine. â
â what the hell has gotten into you? â
â whatâs dumb is how long iâve been putting up with your bullshit. â
â iâm actually getting used to this a little. â
â okay. i guess that still counts as a landing. â
â donât try to change the subject. â
â everyone else is fine. concerned about you, but fine. â
â i feel gross. iâm taking a shower. â
â donât try to talk. youâre going to be okay. youâre safe now. â
â if you donât have anything else to say, you need to leave. â
â you think you might have bitten off more than you can chew? â
â this is the beginning of a long journey for you and me. â
â i donât think youâre ready. â
â i thought it might have been a dreamâŠi wish it were. â
â i wouldnât be able to live with myself if i didnât make things as right as they can be. â
â look, if this is too much, just say so. â
â i canât begin to explain the devastation, the painâŠthe loss. â
â this is what i want. you and me, here. together. â
â you donât still have a concussion or something you havenât told me about, do you? â
â pathetic. this battle is beneath me. there is no honor in killing insects. â
â youâre just gonna keep prying if iâm evasive at all, so, umâŠiâm scared. â
â does that make you feel strong?   to know i canât physically make you do something? â
â honey, itâs the middle of the night. â
â sometimes, i forget how beautiful this planet can be. â
â my apologies. didnât mean to scare. â
â how could someone who promised to keep us safe, to protect us against any threat, become that threat? â
â a little trust goes a long way. actions go further. â
â can we do that again? start over? â
â i havenât figured out anything. i donât know who i am, who iâm supposed to be⊠â
â i didnât want to do itâŠbut it had to be done. â
â i love you, man, but i need someone else to talk to. â
â i came out here because i needed to start over, but that doesnât mean ignoring the world when it needs me. â
â itâs like iâm hollow inside. nothing seems real. â
â i know youâre not okay, but do you want to talk about it? â
â okay, stop. enough with the sulking, you big baby. â
â i got everything i ever wanted, and i messed it all up. â
â you have no idea how much i needed to hear you say that. â
â you still feel somethingâs wrong. donât you? â
â from the sounds of it, iâm the one who should be apologizing. â
â who do you think theyâre gonna believe? me or you? â
â demons know evil when they see it. â
â youâre ruining my childhood, and thatâs hard because it already sucked. â
â if we can die and any time, we can drink at any time. â
â can weâŠtalk about something else? â
â fly away, or take the stairs. i really donât give a shit. â
â iâve been an asshole, and iâm sorry i didnât realize that sooner, but that all stops today. â
â huh. that is a strangely non-specific story. â
â mistakes were made, but everythingâs back on track. â
â i feel like iâm standing on the edge of a cliff, and iâm the only one of us who canât fly. â
â youâve been talking about home. you never talk about home. â
â i donât know if i could do that. leave everything behind. â
â and what if the greatest me isnât enough? â
â youâre hiding something from me, and it hurts. â
â iâve heard so much about you. â
â you expect me to worship you because of it. â
â youâve been distant, annoyed at everything, and youâve been mean. â
â along the way, youâre gonna need to do things you donât want to do, or might not think you can do. â
â first thing: stay out of sight unless something goes wrong. â
â as much as iâd love to help with your very special crisis, iâve got my own crap to deal with now. â
â look, i screwed up. i know i did, i justâŠi just, i donât know why i keep doing this. â
â i take back everything i said about you before, and i said a lot. â
â or what? are you threatening me? â
â we haveâŠresponsibilities that normal humans donât. â
â try to hit me. â
â after everything theyâve done, how can i possibly live up to all that? â
â iâm more like you. iâm nothing special. â
â you barely remember anything you donât see in the mirror every morning. â
â if you really wanna do what i do, you have to be prepared for anything. â
â donât look downâŠstop looking down! â
â if youâre up for it, iâll make some time tomorrow for training. â
â iâŠhad a pretty interesting day. â
â no, you donât! i know you think i canât do this! â
â it wasnât too much, i could take the pain. â
â howâs everyone else? or was i the only loser who got the shit kicked out of them? â
â i thought you two hated each other with the burning fury of a thousand suns. â
â every time i try to be a hero, i just make things worse. â
â you said that you wanted to start over. you said that. you promised. â
â i know itâs hard to love someone when they donât seem to love you back. â
â make the world you wanna live in. â
â iâm not here to help. just here to make sure you donât get hurt. â
â shut it! i feel dirty even talking to you. â
â iâve faced death more times than i can count, but iâll be damned if that didnât put my balls in my throat. â
â make sure you get a good nightâs sleep. â
â iâve never done anything that hard in my life. â
â youâve had it rough, you know, but youâve really pulled yourself together. â
â you got a problem with a demon? i thought you were an atheist. â
â donât make me get the spray bottle. â
â the world was fine before i came along. itâll be fine without my help. â
â i wasnât ready before. now i am. â
â i covered for you. told them you got hit by a bus which, by the looks of you, isnât far off. â
â forget this. we did our best, and we won. â
â iâm twenty minutes late, but thereâs no way youâre gonna be mad at me. â
â one nightmare scenario is enough to worry about right now. â
â thatâs not blood on you, is it? â
â do you need a replay on what happened last time, ass? â
â i never thought i would have a family, and then you came along, and i love you so much. â
â oh, âoutâ. every womanâs favourite destination for a romantic evening. â
â hell, last time you sprained your back. â
â one day, it seems like you have all the time in the world,   and then the nextâŠitâs gone. â
â kill that one and move on! â
â iâm happy youâre awake. your recovery wasâŠtenuous at times. â
â just gotâŠa lot on my mind, i guess. â
â what are you thinking? you look ridiculous. â
â i need something to punch. â
â iit changed my life. i know it changed yours, too. â
â you make me sound like a monster. â
â it may not look like much, but you did far more damage there than you needed. â
â you are big and strong, arenât you? â
â i know youâre crazy about me. â
â i can take it from here. too dangerous for you. â
â weâre gonna be fine. weâll get out of this. â
â please, you couldnât just sit this one out? â
â you just take all the time you need. â
â i donât know what just happened, but i think i speak for everyone here when i say i never want it to happen ever again! â
â umâŠthanks for saving my butt back there. â
â iâm here for you. whatever you need. you wanna talk, iâll listen. â
â i donât know who you are, but itâs time to go. â
â weâre keeping this all hush-hush for now, but news will break. â
â please, donât waste any more of my time. â
â i said, no. youâre still injured. â
â trust you? how could i possibly trust you now? â
â every date should feel like a first date. â
â i understand what itâs like for the world to look at you and see one thing, never knowing the truth of whatâs inside. â
â look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power. â
â this isnât your world. itâs theirs. â
â you saved himâŠso much effort, for what? â
â thereâs a lot of things i thought i knew about you. â
â youâre terrified of me, arenât you? â
â this is my home and i wonât let you destroy it. â
â we can finally do what we were meant to do. be who we were meant to be. â
â this isnât how i wanted to do this, but i donât have a choice. â
â someoneâs controlling you! tell me how to stop them! â
â what happens out there, the mistakes, even the victories, you canât bring it home. â
â didnât mean to offend. nuance of human conversation is difficult for me. â
â never get invited. show up anyway. â
â itâs a rare, lucky few of us who find someone who understands our path, even rarer if they accept it. â
â no matter what threat i faced, i knew i wasnât facing it alone. â
â get out! before i send you back to hell myself. â
â you donât seem to understand. earth isnât yours to conquer. â
â i love you, but, man, sometimes, youâve got a screw loose. â
â i already told you everything i remember. â
â this is why i have always hated you. â
â everyone you know and love will be gone before you even look 30. â
â hold on, i just wannaâŠi wanna talk! â
â sometimes people arenât who they appear to be. â
â this is your life now. this is what you do. â
â could you define ânot that toughâ? â
â admirable intention, but i am not positive we can handle this. â
â itâs okay. itâs okay, iâm here. are you hurt? â
â iâd say iâd see you in hell, but thereâs a worse place waiting for you. â
â we gave people time to escape. thatâs what matters. â
â your voice is like music. i hang on every word. â
â your stubborness against the inevitable killed those people. â
â you tread on dangerous ground, my friend. â
â did seeing that man lose his life disturb you? â
â how does it feel to save the world? â
â stop, please. iâm not here to fight. â
â you donât understand the choices i have to make. â
â iâm not an idiot. i know when someoneâs lying. â
â ohâŠyouâreâŠyouâre out for revenge. â
â how many more need to die? itâs up to you. â
â you canât do this hero bullshit on your own. â
â am i important to you? it really doesnât feel like it. â
â you only see good and evil. black and white. â
â ithat was amazing, but also the scariest thing iâve ever seen. â
â itâs kind of like peeing your pants on purpose. â
â i did actually help people. not sure how grateful they were, but whatever. â
â please donât lose interest in me while iâm gone. â
â when you start a sentence with âi thinkâ, you murder 90% of the romance in it. â
â itâs all i ever wanted for as long as i remember. â
â you wanna be a hero, right? fame, glory, get the pretty gal? â
â kids your age think theyâre invincible and it holds them back, makes them careless. â
â donât you do enough for the world? â
â i canât imagine what youâre going through. â
â itâll be worth the wait to see me on my best behavior. â
â iâm wasting my potential here. i could so so much more. â
â you said you wanted to tell me months ago, but youâre still not telling me now. â
â oh, i know. youâre confused, but youâre used to that. â
â no, no, what about you? â
â all human failings are simply engineering challenges crying out to be solved. weâre machines, and the sooner we recognize that, the sooner weâll reach our true potential. â
â once again, it seems you have an opinion to share? â
â you canât save the world. itâs gonna get you killed. â
â huh. i thought youâd try and talk me out of it. â
â i donât want to lie to you, but i donât want to tell you the truth either. â
â lots of people are going to tell you how to use your powers, but itâs up to you to make these decisions. â
â if i didnât know better, iâd say youâre trying to get rid of me. â
â thatâŠsounds like a commitment to a second date? â
â iâm a little jumpy. maybe you can understand that. â
â donât you dare shush me. â
â iâm sorry. i must have pinched a nerve. i forget how soft humans are. â
â never seen anything like this. â
â itâs impressive, but, like, who needs that many rooms? â
â when in doubt, throw them into space. â
â i want to see fear in your eyes. â
â i think you might have skipped a few steps. â
â i mean, can a person even have an eight pack? â
â you make it sound like i am obsessed or something. â
â havenât you earned a day off? â
