Felicia was beyond annoyed. Not only had she managed to get herself found out by this... person, but he had chosen to tag along with her, and then to get caught with her, much to her chagrin. She was the Black Cat! She didn't get caught! At least not when she was in her right mind anyways. She eyed this Darkhawk man with speculation and irritation. If he hadn't brought up.... well... him, she never would have been flustered enough to fall into something like this. And now here they were, stuck for what appeared like forever. Oh joy and rapture.

And what was even more confounding to her, was that despite her best attempts, he seemed completely oblivious to her... finer assets. That was just too rankling. She had given up trying to get out early on, realizing quickly that it wasn't worth the effort. Felicia was crouched in a corner of the room, watching Darkhawk beat the wall with some vindictive amusement.

"This is a fine mess you've gotten us into," he groused.Felicia merely raised an eyebrow and grinned predatorily at him. "That ( ... )

"That I've gotten us into? If you hadn't stuck your nose where it wasn't wanted and left well enough alone, I never would have been caught."

He turned to her and scowled, even though his helmet concealed all expression. "Some excuse. I'm a superhero; interfering with people like you is what we do."

He felt the urge to facepalm upon hearing himself say that. Chris didn't want to be a superhero, and being stuck in Darkhawk form was currently the worst kind of torture for him, so what was he saying?

Of course, Black Cat didn't need to know how conflicted he was.

"And what exactly am I supposed to call you anyways?"

"Darkhawk. I already told you." He didn't feel like giving an unapologetic cat burglar his real name.

Felicia frowned slightly. Hmm... there was some interesting information. He didn't quite sound as if he bought into that particular idea. In fact, he sounded down right unsure of himself. Felicia narrowed her eyes and looked at him more carefully. Perhaps he wasn't quite as one dimentional as she had expected. Not that she was admitting she could have possibly been wrong of course. She refrained from saying anything just yet. He still had one question to answer. She cocked an eyebrow arrogantly and waited for him to continue.

"Darkhawk. I already told you." He didn't feel like giving an unapologetic cat burglar his real name."Well. That's an inspiring first name I must say. So dramatic and over the top. Can't say it suits you at all." Felicia smirked at him and made herself more comfortable, knowing that the crouched position she was in gave him a very nice view. "You don't ( ... )

(OOC: Too lazy to relogin as Darkhawk YET AGAIN...)

"Well. That's an inspiring first name I must say," the cat burglar replied thoughtfully. "So dramatic and over the top. Can't say it suits you at all."

Chris never realized his Darkhawk body couldn't blink until just now, when he felt the need to do so out of sheer confusion. Just as the body his mind wasn't his own, the face he wore under the helmet wasn't his ... and it wasn't for the faint of heart, either.

"It's not a first name," he pointed out. "It's just a name."

"You don't sound too sure of yourself."

"How do you know what I should and shouldn't sound like?" he inquired, more than a little perturbed and defensive.

"Do you want to interfere with people like me?" "When you're committing crimes, yes. Just be thankful you're not committing any violent crime like some people I met earlier. You'd be a stain on the wall and a pile of ashes by now ( ... )
