Scarecrow gets a weapon, costume, a drug supply @theBox

[ichoosefight]

[ For a very long moment, there is only silence and that look. ]

Please. Please. Can we try to arrange things so I only have to kick Scarecrow's and the Riddler's asses individually?

I'm going to have to start recruiting people, aren't I.

Level of threat and who did you have in mind to recruit?

(No, he didn't just pop in from somewhere to say 'hi.')

[ichoosefight]

Hello to you too, Bird Brain.

[ She has to try out new nicknames, because Red Robin just sounds too silly. ]

The threat from Nygma is minimal. The threat from Crane is about to skyrocket, unless I can find a way to set him back.

I don't really have anyone in mind, honestly. In a completely unexpected and unintentional turn of events, most of the people I know are at least a little bit psycho.

[trainedbythebat]

You could've just called me 'Redbird,' or 'Redwing.'

(At least one of those names he gave to his car; the one they rode around in lots of times?)

Wanna flip to see who gets to fight Nygma? I suspect mind-boggling riddles are easier to deal with than city-wide panic due to fear gas.

...Just a 'little bit' psycho? Steph, what kind of company have you been keeping lately?

[ichoosefight]

Shoulda used them as a codename if you wanted to be called that. [ Redbird is good though. She sighs. Tim is not going to like this. ]

Let me handle Nygma. I think he got sort of attached to me when we were living together with the Norse god of mischief and lies, who I've been nominated to keep away from a potentially murderous immortal that looks like an eight year old who Loki is definitely not friends with anymore. My [ bed buddy ] closest friend asked out of the blue if I'd ever died, and when I jokingly said yes he wanted to know how I got back. I still don't know what that was about. Apart from me I think the most normal person who's been in our house is a woman who used to work for the people who have us trapped in here.

[trainedbythebat]

But then what would I name the car? (Which he has in his new hideout some odd yards away from the popcorn machine. As for everything else about Nygma, her 'close friend' and Loki? Tim frowns. What has she gotten into?)

This should be good. Do I have time to make some popcorn while you tell your tale?

(OOC: That's definitely a good thing!)

[ichoosefight]

Maybe diagrams would help.

[trainedbythebat]

That'd be great. (Tim's heard about her diagrams, or how she 'paraphrases' things, so he's intrigued.)

[eatthemfirst]

Eight year old?

[Excuse you he's just small for his age.

Former age.

Thing.]

[ichoosefight]

And yet, somehow still more tolerable than Damian.

[eatthemfirst]

[Just this face.]

[voted_dead]

Go ahead, call him 'Redwing'. See how long that lasts before people start laughing.

[voted_dead]

You've never exactly had problems making friends.

[ichoosefight]

That probably explains how I ended up living with the Riddler and Loki.

[ /Kanyeshrug ]

[voted_dead]

I'd think the Riddler thing might hit a little close to home. [Christ, this blast from the past is ... almost surreal.]

hey you :>

[ichoosefight]

I figured breaking his nose once was plenty.

hay gurl haaaayyyy

[voted_dead]

Might need to do it again. You have any idea how many times I stomped him straight in the goods when I was a kid? He has the lesson retention of a goldfish or something.

[ichoosefight]

Actually, he's been kinda sweet. Made me soup when I was sick and everything.

[voted_dead]

Are we talking about the same Riddler? Shit.

I'm lucky if I get dragged anywhere at this point.

[missfunction]

[Forgive this robot's intrusion, but--] Did I hear s-somethin' 'bout recruitin'? T' be a superhero?

I'm in!

[ichoosefight]

Points for enthusiasm, that's for sure.

[missfunction]

C'mon, c'mon! I'd be a grrreat sidekick for ya! Y'know, Girl Power an' all o' that.

Hey, I already g-g-got th' powers too!

[ichoosefight]

Hey, I didn't say you couldn't. [ Just that have you noticed you are a robot with a stutter ] What kind of powers?

[missfunction]

[CHECK YOUR PRIVILEGE.]

I got superhuman strength f-for one! [Definitely flexing a muscleless arm. Oh yeah, check out that noodle limb.] An' I totes got s-ss-superhuman intelligence too! [That is a superhuman lie.]

...Oh, an' I guess I can breathe f-fire too. That count?

[ichoosefight]

[ Gosh Steph you can't just ask people if they're stuttering robots. ]

Breathe fire? For real?

1/3

[missfunction]

Shore! S'easy! [When you have a flamethrower built into your throat.]
