Maria picked the purple ball and handed the blue one to Jon. "Ready to get your butt kicked?" she asked with a grin. She grabbed her club. Time for mini-golf.

	Maria grinned and took her shot. The ball rolled toward the windmill and hit one of the blades. It rolled back toward Maria. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He lets her take her shots to get through to the other side, then takes a couple putts to manage to sink his own shot. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes, but you have those fancy abilities," she said. "I just have my cunning and wits." Which meant that she'd have to do her best to distract him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes, some of which would be helpful. But I'm not using some of them, and pretty sure super-golf powers aren't a thing. Besides, cunning and wits gets you quite a ways." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, Gotham, Keystone, Metropolis... plenty of bad guys out there. Definitely some different M.O.s" he agrees, while lining up his shot. Not his best effort. Perhaps her distraction is working. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Tell me about it," she said. She watched him take his shot. She didn't comment when it missed the hole. It was her turn, so she lined up her shot and took it. It stopped a good distance short of the hole. "Damn the luck." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You're sure you're not just humoring me?" he asks, while taking his next shot. Closer, anyway. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm not humoring you," she said. "I'm just off my game. Maybe it's your hotness distracting me." She lined up her shot and took it. The ball rolled and landed in the hole. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It takes him two shots from there, but he gets it, putting him one stroke behind her. "You're the distracting one." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
