He really doesn't want to traumatize any little ones (or not so little ones) that might see him and think he's the real deal.

Well, I know that bribes are generally a bad thing, but just this once, because I promise you something. [ But what to give the man who has everything? Well, other than to dip him like a lanky damsel and give him a hell of a kiss before slipping a small glass perfume bottle into his hands. ] ] Be careful with that. It's not cologne. It's the holy water I promise you way back when. [ Well, maybe not. It's water that Reinhardt believes with the whole of his being is holy enough to at least make the bad demons think twice. Probably, it's just water in a very nice container. ]
