PROMPTS FOR THE RELUCTANT HERO
* assorted dialogue, adjust as necessary
i'm sorry. you must be mistaken.
no one ever stopped and asked me if this was what i wanted.
i don't know what else to tell you. i'm not a hero. i can't do this.
go find someone else to do it.
i can't be what you need me to be.
if you care so much, why don't you do it?
there's been some sort of mix up. i'm no hero.
how can you believe in me when i don't even believe in myself?
there's no way i can fix this.
you picked the wrong person.
i was never cut out for a job like this.
i'm the least violent person you will ever meet.
you're setting an expectation for me that i just can't fulfill.
what, you think i'm the only one who can solve this?
stop treating me like some chosen one.
find someone else to solve this, because i can't!
you can't run from your destiny!
without you, all hope is lost.
i was never going to be what you wanted.
i'm not fighting anybody!
how many lives were lost because of me?
tell them to figure it out for themselves!
you have no idea how i'm feeling right now.
i'm not cut out for this!
i'm not who you think i am.
you're asking a lot from me.
i can't have them all relying on me like that.
there's too much pressure. i'm not ready for that.
too many lives are at stake.
i'm not a leader! i can't be trusted to lead anyone!
why can't you solve it? why does it have to be me?
i told you, i'm not a hero.
i'm quite content living my very normal life, thank you very much.
no one told me i was meant to do that.
you've got the wrong guy.
there must be some mistake. that's not me.
you want me to do what now?
whoa whoa whoa. i never said i would do that.
that wasn't part of the plan!
you're the only one who can fix this.
you can't turn me into someone i'm not.
what they said back there about me... was it true?
have you been keeping this from me all this time?
and you think i'm the one who can fix this. is that it?
i've never done anything like that before. what makes you think i can suddenly do it now?
they sent for you by name.
this has been written in the stars for longer than you've been born.
i feel the pressure on my shoulders, the weight of the world on my back.
you're the one we've been waiting for.
i don't know what you expect me to do.
that's not what we agreed on.
stop looking at me like that.
i don't want anyone to put me on a pedestal.
sorry to disappoint you, but that's not me.
i'm not sticking around to find out.
without you, we will fail. what part of that do you not understand?
you can't just give up now.
without your help, people will die.
do you understand what you mean to these people?
they need a symbol of hope. you can be that symbol.
