[Mia is standing in front of the video screen. The lighting is just bright enough to tell that she's wearing a black domino mask and a yellow hooded cape can be seen shrouding her hair. A long black bow is visible, slung across her right shoulder. She's holding on to her newly acquired dog tags in her left hand and the communicator in her right, ( Read more... )

[Have a sweaty girl staring back at you. And it sounds like she's punching or kicking something while she talks.]

You're in the City.

Um... Speedy, right?

[Mia looks at the girl staring back at her on the screen. She squints a little to see what the girl's doing and if she knows her. She has no clue who she is.]

Speedy, that's me!

She flashes a smile, it's a little bit goofy, but it's the one she uses when the people of Star City recognize her]

Yeah, yeah Star City, but um... wait. Back it up. Who are you?

[Whatever she's punching with her free hand is off-screen, but it's making a sound distinctly similar to a punching bag.]

Not Star City. The City.

Cassandra. Worked with... Green Arrow once.

[Mia's brow furrows as she tries harder to make out who this girl is now that she's mentioned Green Arrow.]

Oh. OK. Um. Where is The City? Like am I East Coast, West Coast? On another planet?

You know GA? ......Wait, why did you pause there?

[side-eyes the girl]

[video] batghoul May 4 2011, 22:36:39 UTC

East. I think.

[She looks a little embarrassed after the last comment.]

I, um. Don't talk good.

Knew the one without the, uh...

[She stops punching just long enough to hold her hand up to her chin to indicate a beard.]

[Mia's expression is kind of like a little lightbulb just popped up over her head]

Ooooooh. Sorry, I didn't mean to be all insensitive, it's just the older GA can be ... well, he's supposed to be married, if you get my drift.

So, you worked with his hottie son, huh? [A grin]

[video] batghoul May 5 2011, 03:05:29 UTC

[There's a pause as she just looks confused, and then realization dawns.]

Oh. Oh. No.

Um, yes. He's a... good fighter. [She smiles a bit too. She always remembers good fighters fondly.]

[video] miaiam May 5 2011, 03:14:58 UTC

He's a brilliant fighter. He doesn't even use trick arrows. Was he... here? I mean not now, I guess he's not, at least that's what I'm told, but at some point in time? Is that when you met him?

[video] batghoul May 5 2011, 03:17:15 UTC

He was here. But not now

Met him before. In Gotham.

[video] miaiam May 5 2011, 03:34:50 UTC

He was here?! Whoa, 'cause we were just in England rescuing him not long ago...

[video] batghoul May 5 2011, 03:50:33 UTC

...Is he okay?

[video] miaiam May 5 2011, 03:55:37 UTC

Umm.. well, kind of?

Do you want the long story or the short story? Either way, you'll probably get the long story.

[video] batghoul May 5 2011, 03:57:34 UTC

Um.

I guess the... long story, then.

[video] lol storytime miaiam May 5 2011, 14:33:27 UTC

[She sits down because yeah, this is going to be pretty long and probably convoluted since the actual story is lol]

Weeeelllll.... So GA and Black Canary got married. It was awesome, until Deathstroke and the Society showed up and we had to kick their asses out of the hemisphere. Then when Black Canary and Green Arrow were trying to insert Tab A into Slot B [actually makes the motion of her index finger going into a circle she created with her other hand, in case you didn't get the other innuendo], Green Arrow attacked her and she had to stab him ( ... )

[Cass is mostly quiet throughout the whole thing--maybe because she got lost a couple times and couldn't get a word in edgewise to ask her to maybe slow down a bit--but she has a few reactions to certain spots. Deathstroke gets a dark frown. For most of the rest, she just looks blank. And then a bit relieved at the end.]

Oh. Um.

That's... good?

[video] miaiam May 5 2011, 16:56:14 UTC

[Mia had obviously paid no attention to Cass's reactions during storytime. Really, she's much more about the telling of the story, rather than focusing on other people's engagement with said story]

Yeah. So... what do I do now? I mean I have this brochure that pretty much tells me... yeah, it tells me nothing.
