THE FALLEN

EPIGRAPH

"I am merely a man who endured too much, seen too much, and experienced too much pain to fathom. And no matter your questioning, my actions will be my fault and I will not apologize for my actions."

- Erika Lehnserr speaking to Bruce Wayne on the killings in Gotham

"You left me there to die! An entire year! In that psychiatric ward... with him. How long did you wait before replacing me? A month? A week?! Y'know, I thought I would be the last person you would let him hurt - but when I saw him still alive, th-that's why I'm here. I'm here to show you and tell you the entire graveyards he have filled and you just watched! Blindly thinking throwing him in jail would work! But, Bruce, when he took your son, that's where I thought you would cross the line - finally get over your stupid moral code but when I saw him still alive... I didn't care that I came back from the dead, I just cared that he would stay dead once you kill him. And I'm going to make sure of that."

Jason Todd to Bruce Wayne about murdering the Joker

"He is your son damnit! He has lived through hell, dragged through the streets, and worst of all - he didn't have parents to help him back up. He was alone. Nobody was there for him, and that's why he as a protective barrier around him 24/7. He has more than the right to have trust issues. You should know the most about losing your parents, because from his point of view, he wishes just some man killed his parents. He had to endure that hellish lifestyle for twelve years, and he was happy to see his dad dragged away by the police and his mother taken away by drugs. So, why don't you cut him some slack and go tell your son that you will be there for him."

- Dick Grayson on Jason Todd's past

"So, a mutant comes into town and we just welcome her into our arms? She is probably one of the most powerful mutants alive! And we are just sitting on our asses! What if she goes rogue and we are in the crossfire? You have seen her first hand and you know she is dangerous. She isn't Scarecrow, she isn't Joker, she isn't Dent, but she sure as hell is more dangerous than all of them."
