Somewhere over the skies of Metropolis, somebody was flying overhead, and observing everything. Nathan Petrelli's had some weird encounters of late, but that wasn't going to stop him from continuing to do surveillance. And just take advantage of the relatively quiet skies

Babs has somehow managed to make it to the back porch where she has a view of Kate at work. The girl is pretty good. Maybe as good as Mia, and that's saying something. You don't get that kind of skill without some pretty intensive, and nonstandard, training.

[nothawkingbird]

Very intensive training indeed. And within a short amount of time too. Tommy once called her olympic class, and he might be right.

She continued firing. Sometimes trying different angles, or multiple arrows fired.

Watching is one of Barbara's natural states, so this comes easily. It's not the accuracy that keeps her attention, it's the other stuff. Competitors don't need to work from different angles and do stuff with multiple arrows. That's something reserved for more... esoteric uses.

Trick arrows if she had some handy too. She then took a break to retrieve her arrows, and glanced over.

"Enjoying the show?" She dryly asked with a small smile.

[twiceahero]

"I suppose I am," Babs grins. "Any display of skill is worth watching, after all."

[nothawkingbird]

"Thank you." She placed the arrows back in her quiver, and came over, offering her hand.

"I'm Kate Bishop."

[twiceahero]

"Barbara Gordon," she takes Kate's hand firmly. "I hope you'll excuse me if I don't stand." She's not in her wheelchair, so there's not really anything to indicate that she can't stand.

Kate remarked, "That's fine. Nice to meet you."

[twiceahero]

"Have a seat?" Barbara suggested with a wave at a nearby chair. "Where'd you learn to shoot like that, anyway?"

[nothawkingbird]

Kate sat down, and set her bow down to the side.

"Practiced every summer at Interlochen National Music Camp. I also learned cello there."

[twiceahero]

"Wow, you got that good just practicing summers at a music camp?" Barbara isn't sure she believes it, but she won't press for now, "That's really impressive."

[nothawkingbird]

Yeah, canon makes no sense sometimes.

"Also when I could, like at my school. Thank you."

[twiceahero]

"For fun, or...?"

[nothawkingbird]

"Not exactly."

Kate then admitted, "My codename's Hawkeye. Part of the Young Avengers."

[twiceahero]

"Young Avengers, huh? No team by that name where I'm from. Willing to give me a rundown?" Barbara asks, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.

[nothawkingbird]

Relaxing some at the team mention, "Certainly, Patriot's a super soldier, which means enhanced strength and stamina, fast healing. Speed's also a mutant, with super speed, and he can blow things up. Wiccan's a mutant who can do magic. Hulkling's part Kree and part Skrull, with all their abilities to boot. Vision's is the Vision, the most advanced computer you can think of, and is sentient. Persona's like a former teammate of ours, Iron Lad, since it was his neurokinetic armor that he used to upload Vision's operating system to it."

She paused before continuing. Cassie's leaving them for Iron Man's side still hurt.

"Also Stature who just left us, she could grow or shrink her body to any height."
