That last part seems to defeat the original purpose. Clint said that secret identities were so you could stop bad things from happening even though it was not in the law for you to stop the bad things. Is that part not true?

No, it's true. Having a secret identity keeps people from pressing charges on you.

[ Which is why supervillains exist as well. Very hard to sue, say, Doc Ock for damages. ]

It just gets more and more complicated as time goes on. After a while, a secret identity can cause you more harm than good. I learned that the hard way.

[She gives a little nod as though she understands, which wouldn't help even if she had her video function turned on.]

It is good that it prevents people from electrocuting you.

[That's what "pressing charges" means, right?]

[ Yes, that's the problem with visual formats and blindness... ]

Um. No, not exactly. [ Oh, child........ ] It prevents people from suing you.

Okay, let's start with the basics.

[ I mean, he'll give her the benefit of the doubt. Since she sounds mildly... off. ]

Do you know what a lawyer is?
ecks: (looking up)

[personal profile] ecks 2016-10-21 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
No. I do not know what a lawyer is.

[But she sure is settling in to listen and learn.]
