(open) cramming commitments like cats in a sack

WHO: max gibson (batwoman ii!!) and YOU
WHERE: around the city
WHEN: 3/25 - 3/31
WHAT: Max is Batwoman and also explores the City.
WARNINGS: none atm!

a. [ It's not that Max actually has anything against her job, but it's a little aggravating to spend hours at a time answering some of the most simplistic questions about computers and technology she has ever had to even think about. How do people not even know how to turn their computers off and on again?

It's horrifying.

On her breaks she can be found drinking coffee determinedly in a park near her work, looking to stay awake enough to make some money - money that she needs to put into her work on her Batwoman outfit and equipment. Generally she's checking the network as well even as she works on doing stretches to keep herself limber, or weight lifting to help build up her strength. She needs more of it to be able to make full use of her power. ]


b. [ Seriously, it isn't her fault that sometimes when she gets frustrated she shorts out all the lights in the area. And power. And all electronic equipment.

Tonight it was just some deeply frustrating conversation on the internet and she winces as everything in the house starts flickering out. Well, it sucks to be her, but she emerges into the living room to at least pretend that she is also confused about it. ]


c. [ Being Batwoman is exhilarating. She thinks she isn't supposed to think that, is supposed to take it more seriously than that, but it's hard to do that when she has her own costume (newly made and still not in great shape because she doesn't have the money to make the one she wants quite yet but still pretty cool) and she's out on the streets at night, looking for bad guys and sometimes even finding them and taking them down.

The first time someone fired a gun at her was kind of nerve wracking and it took her a couple nights to go back out, but she thinks she's doing all right. Sort of all right?

Well enough.

She's going to get better. She's going to be the best Batwoman she can be.


d. closed to kate kane. [ It's been about a week since she started patrolling, a week since she realized how many other superheroes were out here and how much more experience they had than her.

How much more experience the bad guys had than her, even. Still, she's doing her best, and tonight she's found a gang trying to push a drug deal. Two of them ran when she swung into one of them, but the other three are sticking around and she might be a little outmatched but she's giving it her all. If she can knock out one of them she'll be fine, she just has to do that.

She can totally do that. Give her about ten seconds, okay. ]
