Another first entrance

Normally, Dinah's closet door opens into a closet. This is normal and to be expected and something which, frankly, she takes for granted ( Read more... )

Mal's just laughing at this point.

"I think you're the first person I've seen come in with any sort of investigation beforehand."

It'd be stupid not to.

Dinah's first instinct is to try and protest the sense of her actions, and explain how it's kind of stupid not to look before she does anything, and she's constantly being yelled at for doing that, and...

Nothing comes out of her mouth at first, until she finds the question she needs to ask;

"What is this place?"

"Milliways, the bar at the end of the universe. Yes, really, the end of the universe." There's a jaunty hand waving towards the Observation Window, even if Mal does not turn his gaze towards in from his current position leaning back in a chair.

"Name's Mal Reynolds, miss...?" He starts, leading.

"Lance," Dinah says, vaguely. "Dinah...oh wow."

And that's the reaction to the window. "Are we safe here?"

Molly's been watching Dinah over the rim of an enormous purple milkshake which, when placed on the table, is almost as tall as she is.

She waves cheerily to her.

"Hi!"

Bars don't usually have kids, right? Not that Dinah hangs out in bars much, but if this place is family friendly then it must be OK - ish.

If magic and in Dinah's closet.

"Hi?" she hazards, and after glancing around, approaches the table.

"So this is going to sound really weird, but I wasn't expecting a bar."

She shakes her head. "'s not weird. Nobody ever does - 'least, not the first time. Milliways is totally crazy that way."

Molly grins at her. "I'm Molly, who're you?"

The grin is returned automatically, and Dinah leans both hands on the back of a chair, not ready to sit yet.

"I'm Dinah."

Goldilocks is nearby, indulging in a spot of lunch before she heads out for some beach time. As such, she's wearing an immodest black bikini top and a sarong wrapped around her lower half. Sunglasses are fixed above the bangs of distinctive golden hair and there's a tote bag close to her chair.

"Hello there," she greets, looking up from her cobb salad and noticing the girl's wide-eyed wonderment. "First time here?"

"Yeah."

Dinah's settled in quick, it seems. It's remarkable how quickly you can adjust to strangeness when your uncles are very strange indeed.

"Still figuring it all out."

"It can take a while," Goldy says, nodding faintly.

"I'm Goldilocks, of Three Bears fame. Informally known as Goldy. Have you had the intro speech and rules and free drink?"

raptorcanaria July 2 2008, 16:03:58 UTC
"Yes, no, and yes."

She'll get the rules in a bit, at the moment, she wants to deal with the other thing first.

"As in, you named yourself after her, or you actually are?"

The door bangs open sharply and silhouetted by a streetlight outside is a small figure in a black suit with a stylized bat emblazoned across the chest. The suit is skintight in a way that leaves no doubt that the person wearing it is female. There is an almost non-existent splash of blood trailing from the gloved knuckles of her right hand up her arm to the elbow, the sort of thing you get when you break someone's nose at just the right angle.

There's a moment of sudden and dangerous stillness about the girl since this is clearly not where she had expected the door to lead, but then she shrugs minutely and walks directly toward the bar.

Dinah by this point had been exploring, because if you found a magic bar in your closet and you don't thoroughly explore, then you weren't brought up by the JSA.

She's returning from a scope out of the gym when the Bat walks in, and Dinah stops for a second to stucy her, before coming forward.

Dinah is a martial artist, and she moves, even stands like one if you know how to look. Although her techniques are limited right now, her muscles have already settled into a base technique for the basics such as standing and walking.

In short: if you can read body language like Cass does, than Dinah may not have the vocabulary she'll once acquire, but her voice is very much the same.

The girl in black visibly cocks her head curiously. Under the mask she's frowning slightly. She knows who moves that way, after all. Younger, yes. Not as confident, sure. And with far less experience, obviously. But, still, it's very odd.

Though, she supposes, not much odder than finding Steph here.

Dinah stops a short way away, standing and frowning as she tries to figure out what to say. Goldilocks had said she was from the future, after all, but apart from that, nothing

"Gotham?"
