---

Oracle has posed:
the Dojo in the Nest, the Birds of Prey's home...is home to Batgirl. Or, Barbara, she's not in costume, dressed in workout pants, and a t-shirt and with her hair tied back, she's barefoot and practicing high kicks on a punching bag that's suspended from the ceiling. She's measured and calm, and breathing through her nose as Barbara's working on a routine she put together.

Quake has posed:
Skye wanders up, and stops to see what the other woman is up to.

"Nice. Are we going to continue, or are you taking a break?" She grins, stepping inside the dojo.

Oracle has posed:
Babs looks over and smiles, looking over at Skye and pauses her routine. "Well, I was going to continue if you want to join in? We can spar if you'd like?" Barbara asks, looking to the door and Skye with a smile. "I figured I'd get some training in, I've been up for 20 hours" Babs nods looking over the punching bhen grins, stretching.

"You need any training?" she offers. Nah Babs isn't a sensei, but she can offer some friendly advice.

Quake has posed:
"Me? You know what SHIELD will say, don't you" She grins and comes into the dojo fully. "If you want to, sure? Always can get some practice. Or we can cool down. I'm easy." She stretches as she waits.

Oracle has posed:
"And you know my response" Babs grins, giving the punching bag a right hook toward it. "So what do you want to work on?" Babs giggles. SHIELD doesn't scare her. Much....well, okay, Coulson does, the man and myth and legend. But, hey. Babs switches it up working on her fists and footwork. Punch, dodge, punch, leap back, punch, punch, check your footwork Babs!

Quake has posed:
Skye steps easily into the 'fight'. Like Babs she is good, very good. Maybe not Babs good, but close. So far she is keeping the powers out of it. "So, did you get what I found out about Buffy?"

Oracle has posed:
"I did but haven't read over it yet. We can get a sna k and go over notes on the main floor" Babs offers as she nods to a second punching bag. "Go wild on that, If I spar I'l not hold back and I don't want to do any lasting damage" she explains, looking thoughtful for a moment.

Quake has posed:
"You do remember what my powers are, right?" skye spars on the punching bag. "So, whats up?"

Oracle has posed:
"Yes hence why I like having the Nest" Babs says and nods. "Don't ruin the Nest, or you'll be rebuilding it by hand" Barbara shakes her head and looks serious for just a moment, then cracks up laughing. "What's up? Nothing really, I've just been here all day sorting things out and keeping an eye on Gotham" Babs says with a knowing smile.

Quake has posed:
"Ouch!" Skye let's lose a chuckle. "You do know I can't build anything, right?" She instead opts for the cool down.

Oracle has posed:
"Well, you'll have help" Babs offers and nodss looking over to Skye aftr a look to the door again. "Besides if we all work together, then hmm..." Babs muses. "It'll get done quicker" she admits looking thoughtful then nods. "I mean. we got engineeers among us, surely it isn't that hard"

Quake has posed:
"How 'bout we don't break the Nest until you're sure? Unless you're thinking about new digs for the Birds. Which isn't bad." Skye gives a little hmm. "Anyways, what's up?"

Oracle has posed:
"Nothing, I was going through camera feeds earlier, I was keeping an eye on things" Babs says and looks pleased, then has a gleam in her eye. "New digs for the Birds? I wasn't even thinking that far ahead. Nope. I like our Nest. If you don't then we can get it more fitting what you want" Babs offers. Ah she looks out for her Birds alright...Babs is absolutely committed to keeping her Birds happy, safe and doing their thing.

Quake has posed:
"Enh, it's alright.. for now." Skye winks. "Something came up?"

Skye winds downs and reaches for a towel. "I must confess, I've been busy with my mother."

Oracle has posed:
"Any luck with her?" Babs asks sounding serious. She's hoping things are going good for Skye and in regards to her mother however, as Barbara wants to pull for Skye and sort this out, as much as she can. Sure she's not able to snap her fingers but...but....

Quake has posed:
"Yeah. I think we have the longitude and latitude for the place. Seems to be an island."

Oracle has posed:
"Good" Babs nods. "Good, though if you neeed me to do my Oracle things just say the word" she nods looking serious. Serious Babs is apparently serious and helpful. Skye is one of her best friends and a fellow Bird too. Which is, if anything, good. Stepping out of the dojo, Babs is heading to the operations area, she's got jobs to do. Like, well, keep an eye on Gotham.
