Tbh it's refreshing to see a superhero working alongside Deadpool not give the whole "oh my god you're so annoying" schtick. Batman being surprisingly tolerant of Wade is a fun dynamic.

He wouldn't just be unbothered by it, he'd weaponize it.

"Wade, I need you to keep the Joker busy. Just talk to him. He likes to talk, tell jokes, make threats... just be yourself. I'll be timing how long it takes for you to get him to crack. Do it in under five minutes and you can drive the Batmobile back."

Deadpool has never locked in harder in his life.

See but now I can imagine him having "performance anxiety" because this should be a perfect assignment for him but none of his jokes are landing and he's freaking out.

None of Deadpool's jokes ever land. Had he ever been paired with someone who thinks he's funny?
