Is this self-proclaimed or was there a survey for this rank?

And I'm not too worried about my safety.
I can defend myself from crazy knife-wielding dates if I need to.

[ can she really stop robin from inviting himself over? really? ]

[untie]

[ dick and robin are a packaged deal, sorry to say. ]

You doubt I'd be the number one detective in the precinct? Ouch. That stings.

[consecrates]

[ will he ever introduce him to her, is the question. ]

I thought the number one detective would be the friendliest and most approachable of the group, that's all.

[untie]

[ maybe ... ]

It sounds like you might want to file a report against the number one detective. Is there a reason why he's not the friendliest or most approachable? We need as much detail as possible so we can act on it quickly. We take these things very seriously.

[consecrates]

I don't know, your new partner looking problematic whenever I would see her?
And then she'd have this look on her face whenever we would meet like she has something she wants to say to me.

[untie]

[ why are you talking to his partner, detective amy rohrbach? no one who knows him should be speaking. ]

She probably wants to tell you how great I am to work with.

[ it's the opposite. "detective grayson doesn't talk to me." "is he always so broody?" ]

[consecrates]

Right.
Maybe I'll ask her about it when I see her again downtown.
Invite her to coffee or something.

[ she's teasing ofc since he probably doesn't like it when she meddles in his work but she knows it'll bait him so. ]

[untie]

[ he's such a stupid fish. he's going to take the bait. ]

I didn't realize you two had enough time to talk and swap numbers.

[consecrates]

[ don't make it easy for her, c'mon ]

We hadn't had time, actually.
But she frequents the coffee shop close to work so I sometimes see her and say hi.
She seems very nice.

[untie]

She has to be. She's in law enforcement.

[ and amy's a nice person he refuses to give a chance to, but, whatever, this isn't about him. ]

[consecrates]

You're in law enforcement too, Grayson.

[ this is totally about him. ]

[untie]

[ why did he willingly walk right into this trap? he has an inkling of where this is going to go. ]

I'm nice.

[ 12% nice to adults, 1000% nice to children. ]

[consecrates]

[ because he likes her back and he's willing and happy to be baited by her. ]

To a select number of people?

[untie]

[ okay, that's true, but — ]

I'm nice to you.

[ that's all that should matter! ]

[consecrates]

That's because I would've hit you if you weren't.

[ which is still a threat she makes anyway so. ]

[untie]

You threaten to hit me all the time.

[ it's like he's read her mind. ]

I feel like nothing would make a difference with that, but that's my guess after a thorough investigation. I'm all ears if you think otherwise.

[consecrates]

Well, you might be right about that, seeing that it's you we're talking about.

So why me?

[untie]

Why you?

[consecrates]

I

would ask it a second time but then, you'll probably just ask it back and we'll get nowhere.

[untie]

[ she has a point, even though dick doesn't make it a point of his own to be that difficult. sometimes it just happens. ]

Why am I nice to you?
We're friends. It's natural to be nice to the people you like.

[ he says it like it's so simple. ]

[consecrates]

So you like me, then.
I see.

I'm learning a lot of things today, including the fact that you only have a few friends.

[untie]

And how do you feel about being one of the few?

[consecrates]

Surprised but very flattered.
Do you also send naked selfies to your other friends?

[untie]

I don't.

[ you're just special, davina claire. ]

[consecrates]

Good, that's the only answer I'll accept from you.
