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.

[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.]

[ichoosefight]

See, Damian would be threatening to stab me by now. Totally an improvement.

[eatthemfirst]

[Oh. Well.]

Threatening is pointless.

[ichoosefight]

And glaring is incredibly productive?

[eatthemfirst]

I was correcting you.

[ichoosefight]

You look like an angry third grader.

[trainedbythebat]

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

[eatthemfirst]

Shut up.

[ichoosefight]

[ The mun is far, far too lazy to spend any time on actual doodles. BUT SHE WILL DESCRIBE THEM. First Steph draws a little figure of MCU!Loki and herself laughing, with Edward Nygma off to the side looking unhappy and bleeding from the nose. She continues to illustrate while she talks. ]

So Loki was looking for roommates, and I was living on a pile of blankets in the police department, so I said heck, why not! Apparently he and Eddie know each other though, and Eddie said it was a bad idea. A fight was had, many jokes were made, and I decided to do the opposite of what Eddie says I should do because screw him, right?

[ And now there's a picture of a desk, Eddie sitting behind it, a woman with long brown hair, Czes, Loki, and herself as Batgirl sit in front. ]

Eddie thinks that the Southtown PD is compromised, and he's apparently the only one left at the Northtown PD. So this was the crack team of potential officers he cobbled together. Needless to say it hasn't really worked out well for him.

[ Now there are individual pictures! Wendy is identified as the brown haired woman. Czes, Loki, and Steph are pretty obvious. ]

Wendy used to be a technician, before they apparently turned on her and dumped her in the box that she was until then responsible for filling with death traps and monsters. Czes is immortal, I mentioned that. He gives me the creeps. Loki doesn't really care one way or the other, and I'm already doing my part, thank you very much.

So! [ She starts drawing lines between people. ] Technician stuff happened, and Eddie and I both hung out with Loki for a while. [ Psssst they had sex, nobody tell ] And I think Eddie and Wendy got together, I dunno what's going on there and I don't really want to. But so Eddie moved in with us. Then more technician stuff happened, and Loki scared the crap out of Eddie, poisoned me, and then was killed by Czes, and Eddie moved out, and I negotiated with Loki so that hopefully he'll stop killing people when technician stuff isn't happening.

And that's pretty much where we stand.

[ That is a lot of overlapping lines. ]

[questionslinger]

She's not wrong.

[eatthemfirst]

[Glaring forever especially for you.]

I can't help how I look.

[He can, however, exploit it.]

[ichoosefight]

Awww, you talk like one too.

[questionslinger]

I know, I know.

But you... wear it well, I guess.

[eatthemfirst]

[THE ANGRIEST OF SPUTTERING.]

[ichoosefight]

[ THE TROLLIEST OF ALL TROLL SMILES. ]

[eatthemfirst]

[Czes hopes you speak eyeroll.]

[questionslinger]

Aww, you're so i character for a surly child. Adrable!
