Brave and the Bold: Wonder Girl and Robin
Corinna had been doing a standard sweep. She was trying to find something to do. The team hasn't been as busy as she would like. In a way she feels terrible but she has a secret wish for a disaster so she can feel useful. Even her dreams have been peaceful. She no longer has nightmares of things to come.

That bothers her. It is why she now seeks out battles instead of waiting. She refuses to let things come to a stand still. Of course now she can see something is up. A fight somewhere in New York so she flies in closer to get a good look.

	What she'll find is a group of neighbourhood hoodlums on motorcycles being chased by a certain Gotham vigilante in red with a cape flapping dramatically behind him and the bo staff out. Nothing like a good ol' motorcycle chase. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Seriously why is he in New York? She decides to follow from above. She knows members of the Batfamily are tough. If he needs help she'll join in for now though she is puzzled. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He speeds ahead, going just ahead of one of the guys he's chasing and sticks the bo staff out as he slows down just enough so that the other guy head runs smack into the staff. Disoriented, the man reels back and tips off the motorcycle, landing in a heap by the sidewalk. The helmeted Robin looks up at Wonder Girl. "Are you just going to watch?"

	"You seemed to be handling this well enough." She lands though to take another one of them down. She's fast and neat with her movements like one would expect. Her bad leg is feeling good right now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Practice makes perfect as they say," he shoots back as he knocks another one down. "Weren't you on the JLA? What's the crisis here?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	imperiousamazon 2012-10-28 08:22 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah,," she dances through the biggest of them. He's nothing compared to her. "No crisis. I was doing a standard sweep. Saw you and decided to make sure there wasn't one." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-10-28 08:30 pm UTC (link)
	"So on patrol then huh? No, no crisis here, these guys are nothing special." With mediocre motorcycles to boot. Robin jams his bo staff in the front wheel of the leader's bike and the guy goes flying over the top and lands in a dumpster up ahead. "Is this your usual city Wonder Girl?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not really. It just felt like a New York day," she admits pulling a very tiny man off his motor bike and tosses him into a dumpster. "Looking for fun." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"These guys don't do much for fun," he chuckles slightly as she gets rid of the last one. "I'm pretty much doing the same at this point. I'm sure there's something more entertaining out there." He'd originally come to New York to track down a mob lead, but that was done and he needed something to do in the meantime. And for a bat, patrolling was fun.

"Well now that we've taken out the trash, what say we go find some more?" He didn't want them stepping on each other's toes while they were each patrolling for things to do.

	Speaking of entertainment she gets a signal over her comm that there is a robbery in progress somewhere near by. Funny thing is it is during the day. "Looks like there is some action. Bank robbery." She smirks over at Thomas. "Want to go stop it?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Excellent. I can distract them from the front if you'd like to come up from behind," she offers. Then considers this for a moment. "On a second thought lets see the lay out before we deicde things." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"That's usually best," he smirks before revving the bike and starting to zoom off, trusting she'd have no issue keeping up.

This was a nice change, he found Wonder Woman preachy in his world but this Wonder Girl seemed nice. Besides, didn't Wonder Girls and Robins traditionally get along? Maybe that'd be the case here. At least he hopes because it'd be annoying to work with her if they didn't.

	She send him an entertained smirk. It is rare she gets to do something like this. The prospect seems 'fun'. She is more than happy to indulge in something different that still promotes peace. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

In no time they're at the bank, or at least a safe distance for them to survey before they jump in. GPS on the bike did wonders.

"Okay, let me see if I can tap into the Batcomp and lift some floorplans of this place. Then your plan of before should be still good. You do a frontal assault while I sneak in behind them and make sure to move the stuff they took while you distract them. Then wham bam, hand them to the police and we're good."

	"How long will this take?" She seems ready to go in right away. She doesn't want to leave any hostages in a dangerous situation for very long. "This reminds me, we should see about upgrading our.... I mean the databases in the Watch Tower." She forgot he wasn't a JLA member for a moment. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

A quick scan of the floorplans, and years of experience and training reading them does the rest. One of the things his mother had emphasized, be able to read and memorize floorplans on the fly. It was dead useful. "It's done," he said while putting away his connection to the bat files. "And yes, an upgrade never hurts," he replies, looking a little amused she'd momentarily forgotten.

"Before we go in. How invulnerable are you?" He can't make any assumptions, and he doesn't want to essentially throw her into a spray of bullets if her powers won't help her there.

"Standard bullets won't pierce my skin. Higher caliber bullets will just leave bruises. It's making sure they don't hurt anyone else that is my biggest concern," Corinna explains.

"I'm good but I need the back up to make sure no one gets hurt. I don't have the experience required to pull that off."

This means she is also self aware enough to not try and pull off more than she is capable of.

"Alright, didn't want to throw you into anything that'd hurt you too much," he nods, appreciating that she knows her limits and is cooperative. "I doubt they'll have anything high caliber for this, but if they do we take those out first. Mind if I see your comm unit? Just so I can set up a connection between yours and mine so we can communicate." So far this was a better experience dealing with an amazon than he'd had before. She was far less preachy than her mother in his world.

	"It is unlikely," she agrees. "I suspect they will have shot guns and standard pistols." She unhooks it from her ear offering it to Thomas. "Of course. Since you're not with the League I suspect you don't have my frequency." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's the usual fare." He takes her comm unit and pulls his out. "Yeah, and swiping Huntress's or hacking it would be rude and unnecessary." In less than a minute he hands it back to her and moves to stash his bike away. It wasn't necessary for this next part. "Alright. Ready to stop a bank robbery?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I thought family members did that anyways?" She assumed they were family. It made sense to her anyways. "Whenever you are," she doesn't call him Boy Wonder or anything cute. She is all business and takes this seriously. Every fight should be faced that way. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-11-14 06:50 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm terrible to her in other ways that are more fun than comm hacking," he chuckles and adjusts his gloves. "Always ready. Let's go." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"This is why I'm glad I don't have younger siblings on Mother's side..... And the ones on my father's side of the family aren't allowed to get involved." She sounds serious but there is a distinct twinkle in her eye. Then before they can get caught up in banter she is off. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-11-14 07:07 pm UTC (link)
	He doesn't mind and takes off swinging towards the bank. Robin could do serious and banter. Sometimes at the same time. Multitasking was fun that way. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	A few hours later at a pizza place a few blocks down, there's a crowd gathering at the window to look at two people getting pizza. In full uniform in the middle of the day. "Allergies or anything?" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	imperiousamazon 2012-12-01 08:58 pm UTC (link)
	"Nope. I normally don't eat meat but... I cheat with pizza," she admits. Actually typically she tries to eat vegan only but cheese fits with pizza. She appears very comfortable with this. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-12-01 11:03 pm UTC (link)
	"We'll take a vegetarian pizza then," he says, more to the cashier than her and hands over some cash to cover it. "Where'd you want to eat by the way?" Because here might not be best with everyone clambering for a look. He even saw a photographer or two try for a picture. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If we can get it to go I know a good roof top," Corinna said after a moment. She didn't think a member of the Batfamily wanted their pictures all over Facebook in a few minutes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He'd already sent out a small EM pulse that'd wipe out the camera phones and such early on. At most there'd be a few blurry pictures from the first few moments of them entering. That'd probably be plastered on the newspapers but it was blurry enough that he didn't particularly care.

"I'm sure there's a back exit they'll let us use," he responds and looks pointedly at the cashier who blinks for a moment then hurriedly nods.

	She added a couple of Gatorades to their order so they would have something to drink. She also slipped something extra into the tip jar because she knew that it took a great deal of effort to not over react to the presence of superheroes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-12-02 01:43 am UTC (link)
	Once their order is ready, the people there seemed to have rushed in getting it to them, Robin takes the pizza, leaves a tip and the two of them make their way through the kitchens to the back exit. "Want to take the pizza and I'll swing after you once you lead the way to the roof? Flying is more stable for the pizza than my method of travel." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	imperiousamazon 2012-12-02 06:22 am UTC (link)
	"Of course." She takes the pizza as they head for the back door. Once she is out the door she is up in the air. It shouldn't be that hard to follow her. She chooses a building she has been to before. New York is a fun city to visit sometimes and it's good to know good roofs for sitting on. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-12-02 06:28 am UTC (link)
	He swings after her, keeping up quite well especially considering she could just fly directly and he had to take more roundabout routes. Landing neatly on the roof after her, he sits on the edge with his feet dangling off the side. "It's a good rooftop," he admits. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	imperiousamazon 2012-12-02 07:04 am UTC (link)
	"I like heights," Corinna admits. The Amazon sets the box behind them so there is less risk it will get knocked over the edge should there be any strong cross winds. "So, you don't leave Gotham that much." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-12-02 07:06 am UTC (link)
	"I enjoy them myself. Fun to dive off things like this," he smiled and bites into his first piece of pizza. There would be more. "Not much, no. But sometimes it's beneficial. And you? Where are you based? I hadn't heard of Wonder Girl making NY her patrol route." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It helps you gain perspective to sit up here too," she said thoughtfully. "Happy Harbor, mostly. I live there. It's not much. I tend to just go where I am needed. I have.... dreams. Flashes of insight as to things that might happen." She takes a bite out of a slice with gusto so she couldn't keep talking. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hence us being known for perching on gargoyles," he has to point out. But that was an interesting, and unexpected, power. "Don't spend much time at the Watchtower? And is that a sort of precognition type ability? Is it for recent things or farther into the future?" (Reply to this)(Parent)
