Congratulations! You've reached Booster Gold! I'm probably saving the world right now, but your call is important to me. Leave a brief but adoring message and I'll get right back to you.
[ Booster looks faintly concerned about that, but doesn't try to inspect the point any further. ]
If that's the kind of relationship you have... [ a shrug. ] It sounds weird to me, but if it makes both of you feel better... I guess it's probably best that it's someone you trust, huh?
[He just shrugs again, uncomfortably. He doesn't want her to have to do it. He wants it to be someone who hates his guts, someone who won't see it in their mind's eye, someone who won't be bothered. Maybe Superman has all this junk about giving that right to the people who matter to him, but...
God, how much do you hate the people you love, to put that on them?
Then again, that's nearly what he's doing, telling all this to Booster.]
She's the one who'd have to live with it. If it makes her feel better about it, that's all I care about.
[And really, the only reason he wouldn't want it to be her is to spare her feelings. It's her call.]
Anyway! That's, um, the plan. And it pretty much covers everything that everyone else is worried about.
remembering things is hard, who needs that
