It had been a long day; two tests and a midterm paper all do on the same day. After dealing with all of that, Ryan was ready to find some baddies to beat down. He took to the streets of New York City for some low-key crime fighting, if you could call it that.

She shakes her head. "That's not it, not a matter of trust. Its that like a lot of heroes, there's people I protect with the mask. My teacher is a well known hero by the same name. If that's not good enough for you, I'm sorry."

She sighs. "You're good, you're observant, you're cautious. But you're also running around looking for trouble with no mask and no backup. That will get you killed. Take it from someone who has been at this for some time now. I was going to give you contact information for the Avengers so they can check your references and give you a hand getting started. They could use the help. But I need some idea where you got your training. Give me a reference, one good reason I should trust you, and I'll get you a phone number. That's the best you're going to get."

Having finally calmed down from his earlier outburst. “Well I guess I can but I highly doubt that you would even believe me, but the guy who taught me almost ever thing I know is the original Moon Knight. It also seems that I’m not the only one who furiously protects their secret identity I mean I have loved ones to and I need to protect them as well. But anyone can say that someone trained them so words mean nothing without action. But I see you point I have been being a bit reckless, I guess I never thought that I would even end up doing this.”

"There we go. If you're trying to protect your identity, I'd start with getting a costume made. Second, I believe you. You have the right mix of fighting styles, you move right, and you don't act like you're lying. Moon Knight worked with my teacher a time or two as well, so I am somewhat familiar with him. He was also an Avenger, so they ought to be able to verify what you're saying."

She withdraws a small notepad from one of her packs and sketches down a number.
"You'll be able to reach the Avengers, probably Hawkeye's student, with this number. Be polite, introduce yourself and drop your mentor's name, and they might be able to help you."

“Thanks, that’s very kind of you. I’m sorry for the way I’ve acted; it was very impolite to someone who was trying to help me. But, from what I know of the business being suspicious of strangers running around on roof tops isn’t unusually a bad thing.”

He walks over to Shroud and takes the sheet of paper, carefully folding it and putting the paper into his pocket as he talks. “I wouldn’t call Moon Knight my mentor though he’s just the guy that trained me. I don’t even think he knows I’m out here. He would be so jealous of me right now running around in the streets fighting crime like he used to before he retired.”

"Its ok, I wouldn't trust me either if I didn't know me so well." she replies, a bit amusedly.

"Whoever you are to Moon Knight, its not a bad reference to have. But for now, take my advice, go home, take it easy for a while, and call that number when you're ready. Running around without a mask is a good way for /someone/ to figure out who you are real fast. There's only a handful of people on the planet with that level of training, narrows down the list quick, and every hero has some old enemies lingering about."

“Yeah Moon Knight really got his act together after that whole face carving phase he went through. Thanks for the advice I probably should take things easy for a while and when I have some free time I’ll definitely give that number a call and try and set up a meeting with the Avengers. I suppose I probably should start to work on creating a costume to wear rather than just fighting in my civilian clothes. It was definitely nice meeting you.”

	She nods. This one might survive after all. "Good luck." she offers, before getting back to her patrol, leaping to the next rooftop and disappearing before long. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	After watching shroud disappear back into the shadows, Ryan walked back to the fire escape to get off the roof. It would be a bit of a walk to get back to his dorm but it would give him some time to think, which is exactly what he needed. (Reply to this)(Parent)
