I shot myself in the head once.

[Bruce tells him- mildly exasperated is the wrong word for it, because that's too close a cousin to irritation. But let's head this off here and now.]

Back when I thought I couldn't cope, and the world would be better off without me. I turned green and spat the bullet back out. So please stop trying to frighten me. I am older than you, calmer than you, and you can't hurt me. But more importantly, you are not going to need to.
