[The smile she gives the camera is the sort she's practiced a thousand times; friendly and soft and completely unthreatening.]

Hello. My name is Barbara Gordon, and I think there's been some sort of mistake.

[Her voice, too, is a gentle one, though edged with confusion.]

I have no idea why I'm here. I'm nothing but a novelist, an activist – I'm pretty sure my worst crime is a few boring lectures.

[She runs a hand through her hair, lets the fingers tremble just slightly.]

I really would like to go home. The Waynes – my family will be worried.

[And as her conversations with Steph and Dick continue, realisation dawns.]

You know Batgirl. [The - other. Batgirl. What even the hell.] Or Batman.

...It's Faith; if you're curious.

[She looks confused, for a moment, and then - ah.]

I usually am.

...Nice to meet you, Faith. [She says it with a slight, wry smile.]

You wanna tell me what you're here for, or what?


ooc: *Not poking you to AIM or anything* D:

[A frustrated sigh.] I honestly don't know.

I suppose funding vigilantism is technically illegal...

((/will try!))

[hungryanhorny]

That all? [Faith doesn't look like she believes this.]




((/Will hope!))

[ladyofgotham]

Far as I know, yeah.

Well, that and I can get rude sometimes. [Cue rueful smile.]

[hungryanhorny]

So... Anyone mention where the pub is?

[ladyofgotham]

[She flashes a grin.] No one did, no.

Above deck one; drinks on me. [And whether or not she can get in on her own will confirm whether or not she's an inmate for certain.]

[ladyofgotham]

I'll be there.

[And she's off!]

[spam]

[hungryanhorny]

[And she'll just have to open the door for you, won't she?]


ooc: Coming on AIM? :D

[spam]

[ladyofgotham]

[...Yes. Yes she will.

:|]

((not with the way my computer's been acting, sob))

[spam]

[hungryanhorny]

[Then open it she will; come on; have a drink with her.]


ooc: Aww.

[Barbara pauses at the entrance, eyes automatically scanning the room before she enters.]

Sure I'm allowed in here? [Her voice is dry as dust.]

[spam]

[hungryanhorny]

Guess that's up to me, huh? [She's already drawing out a nice frosty mug, though.]

[spam]

[ladyofgotham]

[wryly] Apparently.

[spam]

[hungryanhorny]

You got a fave, or am I just pouring blind? [Don't make her break out the Romulan Floats.]

[spam]

[ladyofgotham]

[Her voice is wry as she strides to a seat.] Surprise me. God knows I could use a good one.

[hungryanhorny]

Guess waking up in a prison's not all it's cracked up to be. [Romulan ale cut with coke, mixed with a spritz of lemon and served with ice cream - all in a towering pewter mug; it can make a slayer woozy on her feet for a few minutes. Don't ask what it can do to a normal human who drinks it too quickly.]

[ladyofgotham]

Who would have thought.

[Barbara scrutinises the glass for a moment, before shrugging and taking a sip.]

...Well. That's different.

[spam]

[hungryanhorny]

One word for it. [It's the drink that got her the job, though.\

[spam]

[ladyofgotham]

[Another bout of intense consideration...and another sip.]

I like it.

[She glances up at Faith.]

How drunk will it get me?

[spam]

[hungryanhorny]

How drunk are ya looking for?

[spam]

[ladyofgotham]

Drunk enough to forget. [Her voice is frank and harsh. It's not something she normally does, but what does it matter? She's a dead prisoner.]
