[One of the heroes. John imagines Alfie hearing that and scoffing, pointing a finger and telling him he's just like the Avengers, just like Tony and Nat and Steve. That he's just the man who let Royce get murdered by playing hero, and then lets a mass murderer get off scot free because he's also playing hero. How many times has John fantasized about this very opportunity?]
Who you are in the dark.
Have you heard of the concept? It's a mental exercise. What would you do if you knew you could get away with it, no consequences? Don't suppose there would really be any here. Most people would probably rather risk the revival for the chance to kill the Joker permanently.
I told you I committed murder before. But I waited until Sherlock was about to die. I waited to give them a chance to end it without that. I don't regret it, but he was about to kill my friend.
[Or get his moronic friend to take a poisoned pill to prove how clever he was. Close enough.]
I told Alfie I couldn't, just like Pierce. He's pissed off at me. Said I'm just doing it for my own conscience and whoever the Joker hurt's next is on me. I know he's right. I want to kill the bastard, but it's not right. It's just not the right thing to do.
