Can't a dame catch a break around here?

Time: Mid-day
Location: Downtown Hoboken

Minx was througoughly freaked out by the time she wandered downtown. Not only did she have to deal with being in a shithole of a town like HOBOKEN, NEW JERSEY, but now she was turning into a freaking MONSTER at night. Oh, and not just any monster, a monster that seduces everyone and munches on parts of their

When Crane first caught sight of Minx- and the way she was dressed- he thought she was Harley Quinn. There was a sudden, choking moment of panic as his steps faltered to a stop, his mind struggling desperately to think of some way to get away from her. He couldn't go back in the direction he'd come from- he could've sworn he'd seen Alice at some point back there, and with the Scarecrow buddying up to whatever was in control of her body at night, that was something he didn't want to deal with right now.

Then he noticed her hair- black. Not blonde. Black.

Not Harley.

It was amazing how quickly he was returned to his usual collected demeanor.

Minx noticed his eyes before she noticed the rest of him. In her bad mood, she called out, "Take a picture, it'll last longer!"

Her hands were almost immediately at her hips and soon she was stomping, in heels, towards him. She was not out here for his amusement! Unless he was paying.

"Are you a local? Can you tell me where the fuck the airport is? Or a bus?"

Maybe Harley had dyed her hair.

Except the childish, pouty mannerisms had a different air than Harley's, thank everything. However, as grateful as he was that this woman wasn't a clown, he didn't have time to stop and chat right now; he needed to figure out some way to stop the Scarecrow from being allowed out at a regular time that was entirely out of his control, and he doubted whoever she was would be of any help to him.

"No, I'm not, and no, I can't," was his only reply as he moved to brush rather rudely past her.

"Excuse me? Jerk much?" No one brushes past an angry Minx and lives! Okay, well they live, but they tend to get hurt.

As Crane brushed past her, she pushed him hard to the ground and stood over top of him menacingly. At least, it would have been menacing if her dress wasn't so short.

"Listen, buddy, I want out of here and I'm not in the mood to be messed with! You don't just speak rudely to a sweet, innocent, asian girl in a crap part of town! That kind of behaviour gets your ass kicked."

Hey, he wasn't using easy as an insult. He loves easy chicks- couldn't live without 'em.

"Really, now. Well, it could be worse. You could turn into Sasquatch or something. Grass is always greener, or something like that, right?"

Alright, so that saying didn't really pertain to this conversation. But that was alright- he had a feeling she wouldn't even pick up on that.

"Right. Because the worst possible thing ever, even worse than sucking out lives during intercourse, would be being ugly. Real Deep, Mr. Sionis." She rolled her eyes and scoffed. Sometimes being hot was a total curse. Everyone thought she was totally shallow and vapid! Well, Minx would prove them all wrong! HA!

"So... do you have a way out of here? Or a place to stay? ... Or any cash on you? I usually keep a few hundreds in my G-string but I'm pretty sure I got mugged when I ended up here. Lucky bastards. If I had been awake, I would have kicked their asses."

[mykindoftwisted]

"What can I say? Small pleasures."

Digging in his pocket for a few moments, he drew out a pack of cigarettes, taking one out and holding it between his teeth while he extended the pack to her. "I don't got a way outta here, but I got a place to stay. As for cash, only what I had on me when I got to this place. Not sure I can access my accounts in Gotham- haven't tried that, yet. Figured I got plenty'a time in this place."

"No thanks, I don't smoke." She shooke her head and smiled apologetically.

It was pretty amusing how he could smoke with that mask on. What a weird guy. He exuded power, wealth, and danger most of all. Why be alone in this hell hole when she could pal around with Roman for a while?

"You think... I could stay with you until we figure a way out? You could watch my back at night and make sure I don't terrorize the townsfolk... and I'll make it worth your while during the day." She purred. Her smile was devilish now and hinted at a much deeper meaning.

"Like you said, we've got plenty of time."
