I prefer having conversations the old-fashioned way. Texting is so impersonal. How are you even sure you're really talking to me right now? I could be a computer.
[ He truly believes this is the truth, doesn't just say it with the intent of trying to sound like he's being humble, showing humility in the moment. He truly thinks he isn't special and while he's got a serum running through his veins making it so he is capable of doing certain things ( not that's he's the only one, further proving how he isn't special - just another one in a line of science experiments ) and is using his extended life and those abilities to help out when he can, but he's nothing special. Not a hero. ]
A computer couldn't be half as annoying as you are and I could do without dealing with the things a lot of the time.
I hope you're not serious about my arm. You know how many people out there would wanna take that thing if they could?
[ Even talking raccoons, but he wasn't about to mention that because that was still strange, even for him.
He's sighing as he realizes he has to play ball here, has to give a little to get a little even if he doesn't want to. It sounds like she'll give him his arm even if he continues to drag his heels on giving her what she wants, but he knows he's coming up empty handed everywhere he turns. ]
I'm not going on a date with you for information. Name a different price.

[ She's not getting him anywhere near an in-person meeting though, despite using his arm as leverage. So she switches tactics. ]
Sure you don't want to meet? I also have that intel you want, but unlike your arm, I'm not willing to leave it on your doorstep in a paper bag.
