Catwoman has posed:
The iceberg lounge is busy as ever, and as night approaches, there is a beautiful light display on the rooftop patio. Sure it's cool outside but there's a nice large fire pit set up here and there for warmth. It is here that Catwoman is sitting, at a nice little cozy booth facing a small fireplace as she waits for Ivory to meet her. She had sent the other cat another invite after their last discussion. Now she just waits patiently, sipping some hot chocolate.

Ivory has posed:
Ivory stretches as she arrives, having opted for something so unusual for them that it might be hard to notice who they were at first. Because a normal grey business suit, the hair tucked up without the typical ponytail and instead held in check by glasses so wasn't Ivory style. But they come on time, stepping up behind catwoman with a little question. "Is that spot taken?"

Catwoman has posed:
Catwoman smirks and shakes her head, "Mope, unless you're someone else. Good evening Ivory. How have you been? Please join me.." she looks the kitty up and down with an appraising glance, "Love the outfit."

Ivory has posed:
Ivory chukles a moment as they settle on the chair oposite, lifting a hand to gesture for a waiter. "Thanks, but it's not even one of my designs. Not even my style. I mean, it's not like it really tries to do what I do... anyway, you wanted to talk?"

Catwoman has posed:
Catwoman arches a brow, "Oh? Then why wear it, just trying for something different?" she chuckles, "Either way it's a nice change.." she shrugs, taking a sip of her hot cocoa. "Can I offer you a drink or food? These peppermint hot chocolates are the bomb.." and we all know how much cats like their milk. "Make yourself comfortable, then we talk business."

Ivory has posed:
"Not today, not today. Businesss sometimes demands proper attire, doesn't it?" Ivory notes, asking the waiter about a hot cup of tea and a tuna sandwich sans corn. It only takes them a few moments, then they lean back fully, sorting out the suit some as it feels stuffy and needs the buttons opened. "Peppermint? Too bad that my color is mint, like 3 nuances lighter!" she teases.

Catwoman has posed:
Catwoman chuckles and nods, "I do like peppermint myself.." she purrs. "So then, let's get down to business, hmm? Recall our last meeting? Still interested in helping me out? I am investigating a potential goldmine, if we are successful in infiltrating and breaking into a particular criminal's mansion. I suspect the lady who owns the place may have more prisoners aside from the ones we freed, not to mention tons of expensive jewelry and of course reams of money..But I need help.."

Ivory has posed:
"As long as we stay clear of... getting hit. I mean, I wouldn't want to go to someone that could punch me through a wall or who turns out to be that crazy cheetah lady in disguise." Ivory nods slowly. "But people trying to trade in people are a shame. I mean, that's doing the good work."

They sigh a little, brushng through their hair. "What could I help with? I can't pick locks or such..."

Catwoman has posed:
Catwoman hmms, "So. Tell me what sorts of skills you have to offer then..I thought you seemed pretty capable of taking care of yourself the last time. I hope I wasn't wrong?" she shrugs, "Either a good burglar, a look out, or muscle is what I'm looking for."

Ivory has posed:
"WEll, I do can look out for myself, beating where it hurts. But I guess lookout I am really good at. You know, who'd expect that a kitty will rat them out, hmm?"

Catwoman has posed:
Catwoman smirks, "It's funny, I usually have a keen affinity for cats, but these cats are pretty bad blood." she sighs, "It's a pity really, but they're doing bad stuff and I need to stop that. The..Loot is just a convenient after thought." of course it is. "Soo, do you have keen senses? Good obvservation skills that might come in handy?"

Ivory has posed:
"Hmmm, I would say so. The waiter a few minutes ago? Has a girlfriend, and she marked his shirt with her parfume. He thinks he can overshadow it with the sea-colored Gaultier. You know, the sailor one. But some of her Kenzo still shines through. Or you mean something different?"

Catwoman has posed:
Catwoman arches a brow, a rather pleased smile crossing her features. "Oooh, impressive! All that from a sniff? Yes, I think your abilities could come in very handy!" she smiles, "To be honest, I am still curious as to the origin of your abilities. Of course I have my suspicions of course but.." she shrugs, taking another long sip of hot cocoa. "I'm sure you will tell me when you are ready."

Ivory has posed:
Ivory chuckles as they shake their head a little. "Gautier Le Male Classique is what a bully in school used, so I know that one very well. And it was more than a sniff - I asked him what his girlfriend uses when I entered because he did not smell like a male back there at the door. Put it on to try to cover it up."

"There was a song that put it right back in 1986. Taylor wrote it. Mercury voiced it. And t came in that Highlander Movie."

Catwoman has posed:
Catwoman hehs, "Still, clever. I could use that level of perception in my line of work. Just need someone to keep an eye out, make sure no one disturbs is when we sneak in, get what we need and sneak out. Someone can watch the shadows, subtle movements, who can expect the unexpected and keep us out of trouble. And there would be a sizeable reward. What do you think? Are you in?"

Ivory has posed:
"Sounds like a plan." Ivory chuckles a moment, ruffling through their hair to free the cat ears with a wide grin. "The bigger question is, what you want for a signal?"

Catwoman has posed:
Catwoman smiles, steeping her fingers, "Excellent! I will contact you closer to the date of the operation. As for a signal, how about a simple whistle theee times to signify danger? Think you can pull that off?"

Ivory has posed:
Ivory hmms, chuckling as they nod. "Unless you prefer a pathetic I-ate-a-bite-from-the-bowl-and-now-its-empty-feed-me-I-am-starving-hoomaaan meow. Because I totally can try that. The accusatory tone in such a mewl."

Catwoman has posed:
Catwoman chuckles and shakes her head, "Noot exactly sure what that even is, but if you can't handle a whistle yourself, I could easily provide one. As for connecting you, do you have a number I can call you on?"

Ivory has posed:
"Didn't I leave you a card? Uh, here." Ivory answers, searching for their label's card to slip to Catwoman. Not that they had a secondary phone number or anonymous phones. Just plain old home-slash-business phone.

Catwoman has posed:
Catwoman nods, taking the card. "Probably. Think I lost it in the last battle. I will have to be more careful. Thanks." she smiles and nods, finishing the rest of her drink and climbing to her feet. "I look forward to working with you in the near future, Ivory."

Ivory has posed:
"Let's call it a test, yes?" Ivory notes as they take the last bite from their sandwich, giving the woman a smiling nod. "Maybe I qualify for some kinda cool codename or such..."
