A rooftop in Gotham

[seewhatyoumean]

The fight in the warehouse had been quick. Quicker than even Cass' fights usually went. Trowa wasn't a bad partner for this sort of thing, really. Maybe she should ask him to join her again sometime

He's fine with coming. (Trowa signals this with an instant's lowered eyes and an infinitesimal shift of the chin.)

He's hardly seen any of the city so far, after all.

Fortunately, a pair of interestingly augmented night vision goggles are among the items he took from Cass's belt. She may know every rooftop on this city concussed and blindfolded, but to Trowa it's new terrain. And the street lights are . . . patchy.

Cass nods back quickly and moves smoothly to the edge of the roof. She doesn't jump yet. Instead she extends a finger to point out a building in the distance. It may not be easy to pick out her black-gloved hand in the darkness, but she's pointing at a clock-tower deeper in the city's core.

Trowa takes an extra moment to be certain of the objective -- he doesn't strictly need it, but better to make sure in unfamiliar territory -- and then nods.

Got it.

Cass lets him finish the motion, which doesn't take long (Trowa is quite economical with that sort of thing), before she easily leaps the ten foot gap to the next building.

Her footfalls silent as she lands smoothly and transitions into a graceful run. She relies on the sound of movement to pinpoint Trowa's location and the path she picks is of medium difficulty.

For one she doesn't want to push Trowa harder than he's comfortable with in unknown terrain. And she doesn't have a backup grapple for him which cut out some options completely.
