Sunday night, Causeway and then into Baltimore

Jul 18, 2010 21:05

"Black?!? You want me to wear black?!" Blossom sighed and looked from the shiny but BLACK helmet back to her friend, who was 'checking on a few things' before they left the causeway. "Are you sure we can't fly? I don't mind carrying you, you know!" Blossom yelled again over the sound of the motorcycle engine. It wasn't that she was afraid of the ( Read more... )

"C'mooon, Blossom," Dinah whined back, then grinned. "You can wear something not-pink just this once! It's still light enough not to fly. C'mon. Pleeeease?" She grinned, letting the engine idle. "Just put it on and let's go!"

Tim jumped from the fire escape of a nearby building, did a flip in the air and landed neatly next to the bike. "So," he said. "What are you ladies up to tonight?"

"Oooh! Nice flip! And a totally awesome landing!" Blossom tried to applaud but she had her hands full with the helmet and the hair bow she'd just pulled out of her hair to put on said helmet.

"And why do you want to know? Tired of patrolling Fandom rooftops looking for villains that don't exist?"

Dinah was resisting the urge to facepalm. "...Robin, I assume."

Since Blossom knew she knew who Robin was, and now Tim could know that Blossom knew that she knew, and oh my god, how much did she hate secret identities some days?

In Baltimore... blondecanary July 19 2010, 03:37:34 UTC

It was less than half an hour later that they found the evening's excitement.

Rounding a corner on the bike, Dinah slowed to see two people getting to their feet in the middle of the street, looking shaky and trembling. "Are you guys okay?"

"Those guys just jacked my convertible!" said younger guy, looking crushed, his girlfriend shakily rushing over to put her arms around him. "Holy crap."

Dinah really shouldn't have grinned. "Call the police. And we'll be back soon."

VROOOOOOOOOOOOOM--

"Blossom, can you see the car? Get us any info you can. Canary, see if you can pull up next to the vehicle once we find it."

Blossom rolled her eyes as she flew. "I assume you mean the one speeding away from you and ignoring all street signs and lights?"

She kicked up her speed and zoomed closer. "What do you want to know? Ah! He's turned left at the second light from you. With no signalling? Hey! You almost hit her!"

It was like having Oracle in her head again. Only weirder. 'Cause it was Robin, and she'd been told whole reams of History of Crimefighting starring various Robins.

Dinah cut down a side-alley and said, "Got it. Hang on!"

And burst out of the alley just behind the carjackers, speeding up. Faster and faster and just behind them now--

"Apple pie! Ala mode, please!" Blossom grinned at the waitress taking their order. "And hi, Anna!"

"Two scoops like usual?" Anna-the-waitress asked back with a wink. "It's been a while since you two stopped in."

"We've been kind of busy." Blossom laughed. "But yes, please! With extra cinnamon on top, today, too!" She looked at the rest of the table. "I'll buy, okay? Order whatever! I got a bonus this week!"

Re: at an all night diner blondecanary July 19 2010, 16:24:51 UTC

"Strawberry shake, and some steak fries?" Dinah wheedled, grinning at Anna. "And yay bonus! I thought it was all visiting your family and testing when you were home."

Re: at an all night diner boywonder03 July 19 2010, 18:20:47 UTC

"Can I get the combo number three, with fries and a chocolate shake?" Tim asked the waitress. "Thanks," he said to Blossom. "What was the bonus for?"

Re: at an all night diner heromaniac July 19 2010, 18:45:10 UTC

Blossom laughed and counted off on her fingers, "Visiting family, going to temple, that stupid date at the festival, checking in on the Professor, Buttercup and her crazy workouts at dawn, updating the Mayor and Ms Bellum on my classes, modeling for Bubbles' next class project..." She hesitated. "I think I'm forgetting some stuff? But nope. No monster attacks."

She dropped her hands. "I think the bonus was just because I was gone for so long this time; the only time they've called me back was for that stupid set of commercials a while ago. I think it's an attempt to keep me happy? It's working!"
