This is Hood.

[ The sounds are unmistakable; the clinking of glasses, soft rock music, muted chatter. Hood's on a bar, be it for the booze or for the memories, he ain't telling. It's a little bit of both, really. At least in there he can pretend the crazy world he's been dumped into exists at all. As long as he doesn't walk out again there's nothing to worry, right? ]

Someone fucked up. [ There's a hint of irritation in his voice. ] They wanted a hero, they got me. I'm honored, really, but I sort of quit that life. [ Being a cop and being a hero aren't exactly the same, but that's as close as he's ever going to get. ]

I get it, though. No going back, at least not willingly. Fine. [ A pause; that whiskey isn't going to drink itself. ]

Just... you go your way, I go mine. Got it.

Good.

[ As if he would wait for an actual reply, pffft. ]

Straight to the point, huh?

[The name "Hood" reminds her of the name Oliver was given when he first became a vigilante. Now he was the Green Arrow.]

Yeah, for a place looking for heroes it seems like they make a lot of mistakes.

That's a lotta words for something that's no one's business but yours anyway.

[ Her accent is distinctly Indian, rather thick: ]

They don't seem to enforce it on anyone here, it seems.

[ Not that she doesn't have her doubts that one day they will try. ]

[ Somewhat bemused by the entire post.]

I didn't realise you could quit being a hero.

Hood? Like Robin Hood?

[What? It was too easy.]

No one says you have to be a hero, but you'll find out it's kind of hard to be a villain around here too. Or even just a vigilante.

[Which is where Daisy put herself a lot of the time.]

dude is this like you publicly stating your intent to go off grid

[ "Sort of quit that life". In Barry's experience that usually means there's still a small part of the person who still wants to be in that life. ]

Only sort of quit it?
