[And yet, for all that cynicism and cruelty, he'd seen fit to call her up for little reason other than to see how she was doing. Almost as if he liked her or something.]
On that note, how are you doing?
I mean, I can't imagine your week's been anywhere near as bad as mine. At least, I hope it wasn't.
I wasn't affected by whatever happened, so I tried to stay as far as possible from the havoc. ...I did manage to get myself thrown through a brick wall though, so I guess that was an utter failure.
[It probably said a lot about their current relationship that, not only was she not surprised in the least by this revelation...but she even scanned him over a couple times to see if there were any visible injuries.]
It was just some poor idiot who caught a case of Spiral Madness. He thought bending his and other people's bodies into spirals would be a fantastic idea and tried to do it to me. He caught me by surprise though.
[She actually visibly shuddered when he mentioned the Spiral Madness.]
I'd heard that was spreading again.
[People she'd known in the past had fallen victim to it. It was never pretty.]
Considering you look distinctly un-spiraled at the moment, I'm guessing his twisted plan failed. [Sorry, Jason. Sometimes, puns just happened.] Is he still alive?
[Some of the pieces were starting to come together.]
[It wasn't a guarantee. She could have been completely wrong. But the fact remained, as far as she knew, there was only one person here who had a fancy suit who she knew for a fact came from a "future". Maybe not hers, maybe not Jasons...but, at least, a parallel one.]
No, actually, I'm saying that because I think he's kind of cool. We chatted for a bit. First impressions went well. He even cracked a couple jokes, and at one point, I thought I saw his mask smile.
Beleive it or not, I do have the ability to form actual opinions of my own.
I would have never guessed, with how opinionated you already are. [He rolls his eyes a little.] Don't mind me if I'm not a fan of the guy who tried to turn me into a spiral.

...too bad we both know it's going to take more than a few puns to do that.

At least your social skills are up to par.

[Just ugh, what a terrible pun Zatanna.]
He's fine. I had to knock him out with an electric shock, but he was still breathing before I left.
[Though not before passing out for a short time due to exhaustion and injury.]
no subject
[Come on. Could you really hate this face?]
I'm not even going to ask where you managed to get an electric shock from.
no subject
[No, he can't, but he can damn well try.
As for her second comment - he pulls out a taser from his belt and gives it a firm shake in his hand.]
Pretty easy when the guy has a suit made of circuits.

I'm sure that wasn't his fault entirely.
