[enigmaestro]

I won't argue with that. It's something I appreciate about you.

[osreborn]

I'll be sure to keep it up.

[enigmaestro]

Perhaps you could keep a few other things up for me?

[osreborn]

Perhaps.

[enigmaestro]

Do you want me to go into detail?

[osreborn]

I can improvise.

[enigmaestro]

But I don't want you putting things in my mouth. Even words.

[osreborn]

I didn't ask what you WANTED, now did I?

[enigmaestro]

You never do.

[osreborn]

More mystique that way.

[enigmaestro]

At this rate you'll be in copyright issue with Mystique proper.

[osreborn]

She can handle it. It isn't like she has identity crises to worry about.

[enigmaestro]

Does Spider-Man know you're this funny?

[osreborn]

He should, but I don't think he pays too much attention.

[enigmaestro]

Rather peculiar, honestly. I've got Green Arrow breathing down my neck, and I wasn't even ever part of his gallery, much less his nemesis.

Honestly you kidnap a fellow and torture him ONCE and it's like you OWE him.

Maybe I just attract the dedicated hero types?

[osreborn]

Oh, Spider-Man is dedicated. He's simply dedicated to all the wrong things.

[enigmaestro]

And you're the right thing?

[osreborn]

As if the question needs asking.

[enigmaestro]

Not everyone shares my sentiments, Norman. It's good to clarify.

[osreborn]

Rest assured. You know much I enjoy being right.

[enigmaestro]

You really should reel in your ego, though, isn't it rivaling you for oxygen?

[osreborn]

Oh, I'm doing all right.

[enigmaestro]

Pity. I'm beginning to miss your sense of struggle.

[osreborn]

Are you? Or is that the impatience talking?

[enigmaestro]

Well. SOMEONE needs to teach you a lesson. Preferably a painful one.
