Cassandra Cain | 001 | Video

[hellofist]

[The first thing visible when the feed clicks on is... an eyebrow. Well, two actually. Two eyebrows that are drawn together with a look of confusion. Clearly, someone isn't the best at tech-like things.]

Is- working? [Here have some button pressing and nope, that just turned off the video. The audio is still working though, picking up the sounds of Cass pushing more buttons and muttering quietly before it snaps back on. This time, she grins and her face is framed better, the comm held out to show she's still in her Batgirl costume, she's just taken off the cowl and her gloves.]

Oracle? Are... you here? In weird place. Lots of cameras, so... you must be here.

[With a frown, she rubs at the back of her neck. Maybe she should talk to the general population, figure things out...]

Um, I'm Batgirl. [Wait, pause a second. Maybe the actual name would be a good thing to go by? It's not like she's ever been careful with her identity in the past so why start now?] Cassandra. New here. Found big house, no one's here. Gonna... stay.

Well, in house. Will take walks. Could use... tour? Information.

... That's all.

[Yep. She sucks at communicating in like every sense, sorry. The feed cuts off completely this time, but Cass can be found on the porch of house 17 if anyone feels like coming to see the new kid in person.]

Comments

Empty. So all good. [He confirms, throwing a slapped-together smile back at her over his shoulder. Read all you want, as long as you don't plan on reading out loud.] Has anyone come around here? Welcoming committee or anything?

[hellofist]

[She'd never announce the things she reads to anyone. It's bad enough they can't keep their secrets from her, no one needs her spreading them around to anyone else.]

Yes, a few. The neighbors did. [But he'll probably want names, won't he.] Um, Fun Ghoul. Jesse. Wallie. Laura. Only Jesse... came inside. And you. Obviously.

[redripoff]

[He does his best not to react, just to listen to the list of names as she sounds them off, occupying himself with folding the blanket over her couch.] And? What did you think so far?

[hellofist]

[She follows him, perching on the arm of the couch with no real care for the fact that her boots are on the furniture.]

Like them. Helpful. Not trying to... get anything, or lying. Offering help.

Why? What do... you think?

[redripoff]

I think I wouldn't let them in my place. [His response is a little knee-jerk, but he knows how it sounds--and he backtracks. Look, even stubborn dogs can learn.] But this isn't my place, and...y'know, I know you know what you're doing. I don't mean to...

[You know, boss you around. You know.]

[hellofist]

It's okay. [She reaches out to put her hand on his arm to show there's no offense taken. It's Cass, she tends to let Tim say whatever he wants all the time.] Not yours, but yours. Always welcome here.

AAAAND /ties thread phew we did it

[redripoff]

[A beat of silence, and he smiles easily. Relieved. Comforted a little. A lot. Tim pats her hands, looks around for the nearest bedroom or something.] Let's get you changed--I'll show you around town.
