Testing 1...2...3...
Jaslyn Todd landed on top of a gargoyle at the very edge of the territory her Dad had told her to patrol in. She knew he had a tracker that would set him on her like a dog if she went out of bounds, but she wanted to push just a bit. Besides, and this was the highest point in her entire range. She pulled her jacket a little tighter around her, looked out over Gotham, watching and listening for trouble.

After a while in the higher wind she wrinkled her nose under the plain black mask and made a mental note to remember a headband for tomorrow night. Her hair was going to drive her nuts, again. Of all the things on the list that meant she was prepared it was always the one she forgot. Better than forgetting her boot knives or spare cables, though.

A crash tore through the air pulling her out of her supply musings and she took off towards it, only realizing a block away that she had officially left her designated area. Sending a quick prayer out that her dad was busy and not stalking her she kept going towards the source of the noise and hoped it was something she could handle quickly.

	When they heard the crash, Ezra tugged at Evan's sleeve before racing toward it. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Evan sighed as he followed Ezra, wishing for the hundredth time his brother didn't want to be a superhero. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Huntress was doing her nightly patrol when she too heard the crash. Crashes meant bad news. She started her bike and zoomed toward the source. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Jazz came down into a crouch on the rooftop across the street from the wreck between a pickup and a tow truck that had caused the noise. It didn't look like anyone was injured, so she stayed where she was debating momentarily between making sure the small argument starting between the drivers didn't escalate, and returning to her area before her dad noticed she was gone. She decided for the moment that risking his wrath was worth making sure no one got hurt as the men stepped closer to each other and their motions got wilder.

	Ezra reaches the point and observes for a few moments. "Gentlemen. Gentlemen. No one has to get hurt here if you just exchange insurance information like civilized people." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Huntress skidded to a stop near the wrecked vehicles. She jumped off her bike and started walking toward the two men. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Too late to stop her descent Jaslyn dropped to the ground a short ways away from the wreck and stayed watching anyway, despite the problem obviously being handled peacefully. As many vigilantes as Gotham supposedly had she'd never met any of the others. She was sure it was because of her dad's restrictions, but she was beginning to think that it might be worth the training hell he could conjure to meet some of them.

She hung back, and made sure she didn't present a threat. None of them had met her either, after all.

Jazz settled easily into a wider stance ready to fight, but held up her hands to show she meant no harm. As the pick-up drove off and the tow truck driver went to call another guy from his service her full attention shifted to the others that had arrived on scene. Sticking around was looking like a stupid idea, and she could practically hear her dad telling her to cut and run.

"Well, I don't know who any of you are either, if that helps." Damn her smart mouth, it probably wasn't a good idea to admit she had no clue who she was facing down. If it came to a fight they'd know they have the advantage.

	Ezra spoke quietly. "Let's take this to the roof, ladies?" Ezra gestured in gentlemanly fashion to the fire escape. "Huntres, so good to see you. Situation seems to have resolved. No reason we can't have a simple conversation before we all move on with work." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	brotherkeeper 2011-09-12 02:48 am UTC (link)
	Oh good grief. "I personally am in no mood to hear another dressing down from you," he said pointing at Huntress, He turns to Jazz. "My advice, get out if you can. This Gotham-types have a mad-on for what they qualifies them to do this." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"My aren't you two touchy today?" Huntress asked. "What got your boxers into a twist? Did you spill your juice boxes or something?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Knowing she was already screwed at home by this point, Jazz listened with one ear to their conversation as she climbed the fire escape, wondering if the twins had met her dad. He certainly had a 'mad-on'. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm sure we can all have a civil, professional conversation," Ezra says as they meet up at the roof. "There hasn't been mention of anyone with your description in the police reports for this neighborhood. Can we assume you're relatively new, too, Miss?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	brotherkeeper 2011-09-12 03:02 am UTC (link)
	Evan decides not to say anything, but rather to keep an eye on the women in front of him for signs of trouble. Besides, Ezra really wanted this, and God help him but he'd support his brother. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The two men involved in the accident backed off and Maria waited for a moment longer to make sure they didn't change their minds. Then she headed to the roof to talk. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jazz_todd 2011-09-12 07:51 pm UTC (link)
	Jazz stepped up onto the roof and flipped twice to put some distance between herself and the others. "You can assume I'm new if you like." It probably wouldn't be hard for them to actually find out, so what did it matter if she told him? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Nothing will diminish Ezra's optimism! "Appropriately cryptic, Miss! Very nice." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jazz's grin at one twin's compliment quickly turns into a scowl at the other remarks. "I've got nothing to do with her." Her head tilts. "And my shoulders are perfectly smooth." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	brotherkept 2011-09-13 01:37 am UTC (link)
	That's it. Ezra's breaking out the puppy eyes, even behind his little mask. "...We don't all have to agree on everything to be able to cooperate." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	brotherkeeper 2011-09-13 02:10 am UTC (link)
	It's for Ezra, it's for Ezra, It's for Ezra. This mantra goes through his head to keep from biting the heads off the two women before him. "Alright, I can be civil." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2011-09-13 02:12 am UTC (link)
	"I was referring to him," she said and nodded in Evan's direction. "He always has his boxers in a twist. Huntress." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jazz_todd 2011-09-13 02:17 am UTC (link)
	Jazz nods and relaxes a bit. "Mm. Nice to meet you then, Huntress." She'd offer a name in return, but she hasn't got one that she's giving out. "And what about you two?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Savant," Ezra says proudly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jazz_todd 2011-09-13 02:34 am UTC (link)
	"Next time I'll bring some snacks." Jazz fires at the Huntress as she goes before turning a jackal's grin on the boys. "See you around." One back flip and a handspring later and she's firing her own cable into the night hoping her Dad's lack of appearance was a good thing, and not a worrisome one. (Reply to this)(Parent)
