[Tim starts to reach forward then suddenly stops. Hesitating for a moment.]
Now, please don't take this the wrong way, but-- ah, you are human, right? This isn't some trick and I'm about to shake my life and soul away, right? Because just to be clear - I just want to buy a gun with money. Physical money.
[The question draws Oswald up short, his back straightening as he blinks in surprise at the question. He's not entirely sure whether or not he should be insulted by this line of enquiry.]
It's just-- I've heard there are several princes of Hell--er, Hells? If there are multiple princes are there multiple Hells? Or is it each layer of Hell has a prince?
[He shakes his head realizing he was getting distracted.] Plus I heard there was Lucifer himself running around before. If movies are to be believe it's just a good idea that I know exactly what I'm agreeing to.
As you say. [Oswald can appreciate caution, but that is certainly something Oswald will make note of as something to be aware of in the future. He extends his hand once more, taking hold of Tim's with a slightly firmer, more affirming shake than the one offered at greeting.]
And we have a deal! And without a claw, hoof or fang in sight!

I'm the King of Gotham, but unless Gotham has suddenly become synonymous with hell, I don't think you need to concern yourself with that.
I can assure you, regardless of being called The Penguin, I am very much and indisputably human.
[Even if he has a few very not humans in his employment.]
