[ When Shade flipped on the camera, those who'd seen him back in prison will be able to note how much better he looks. In good humor, even. Light spirits, no drab clothing, not even a foul brick in sight behind him. Instead, it's a dimly lit room, with a wallpaper that looks so painfully victorian it's almost stereotypical. Although next to Shade, it almost is, considering his clothing is back in order, the usual top hat, sunglasses, and even the edge of a cane, his fingers brush against a fine silvered eagle's head.
He's exuberant, and he's celebrating. ]
Isn't there a phrase about something being just in time for the holidays?
It was a long time since I'd been in prison, and I'll admit, the ones back home were much more accommodating to people of my...particular proclivities. [ They didn't get rid of his powers. ] They also didn't make an effort to try and...rehabilitate me. But perhaps that's where they went wrong, yes? An honest effort to making sure an old criminal like me will come back and never thieve again can make all the difference, can't it?
[ His smile is... strained. ]
I would suggest, for those of you thinking to commit crimes, that you don't. After all, you never know when you'll be caught -- or who will catch you doing it, yes?

As for his question, well- it's not like Arthur is the scientific type or capable of grand feats of magic. ]
Unfortunately, I lack the skills to make any headway into getting us home. So I'm stuck playing lifeguard until then. [ Meaning he's stuck in the day to day. ]

[ there's almost a sense of disgusted surprise in his voice. Shade knows who Arthur is, and its quite the downgrade. Unlike him, who'd been given a job when he'd held none in nearly 200 years was a gift. For Aquaman, it must be insulting. ]
This must be close to Hell, then, I suspect. It's nice to have such a thing confirmed, but it makes it no easier to bear.
