Nightwing has posed:
Nightwing had texted Rose earlier in the week...

//Got your bike. Will bring it back.//

And now, later in the evening, she gets another text

//omw to your place. Be there in 15.//

Right around the 13 minute mark she'll hear the tell tale sound of her bike rolling down the street, and it sounds like it's in great working order. Then, at the 15 minute mark he pulls up outside her place, parks the bike, and turns off the engine. While he's not in his full Nightwing attire, he still has the mask in place, and a little less conspicuous outfit of riding leathers. He'll wait down by the road for her, eyes taking in the neighborhood, and always looking for the tell tale trouble that seems to follow him around. His posture is a little tense, more so than normal, and looks ready for someone to jump out of the shadows at any point and try to shoot/stab/grenade/or otherwise cause him serious physical harm.

Ravager has posed:
Darting her head out the window, Rose Wilson spies Nightwing as he rides her red motorbike she loves. She eyes him as he pulls up down the street of the nondescript urban neighborhood. She comes down out of the apartment building in her furry jacket and quickly heads over to the bike, "Right on time," she says to him. She thumbs down the street, "Don't worry, your bike is still in one piece. Trust me," she says and smiles to convince him, "Needs a wash cause I hit a f****** mud puddle. So what do I owe ya?"

Nightwing has posed:
Nightwing stands up from the bike, and makes a flourish towards the repaired ride "And... your ride, Rose." a smile seen on his features, mostly a smirk, but in a good natured kind of way. "No charge. I fixed it up myself, checked the engine, cleaned it up a bit, and put it back together. Should be good as new..." He coughs once, adding "...I was convinced adding rockets was a bad idea, but I still think it would have looked bad ass."

Nodding once at the location of his bike, "Got. I'll get it cleaned..." He quirks the side of his mouth into a crooked grin, "...wasn't really my bike, but figured the owner wouldn't miss it for a little while. I clean it up and get it back to them." He shrugs one shoulder, adding "Cruisers are more my style, modded for speed, but I like to ride sitting up instead of leaning over."

He takes a moment to look her over, and asks "How've ya been? Any 'fun' lately?" Yes, he does the air quotes, but she can tell there's a bit of tension to him at the moment despite the humor.

Ravager has posed:
While next to the bike, Rose Wilson pats the lil gas tank and then runs her hand down the red frame and squats, looking over where it was dented and fixed by the mechanic aka Nightwing, "Looks okay I guess," she says, giving him a glowing recommendation and listens as he goes on about the bike, "What? It wasn't really your bike? Who's was it then? Poison Ivy's?" she asks.

Standing up from her inspection, Rose looks back at Nightwing, "I don't go out on jobs cause it's a thrill ride. You think I get off on it?" she says with a smirk, "Well let me tell you about my next 'job'. It's not really a job---some jackasses were mean to Miranda at work. They broke her god damn leg when she tried to run away from them. So I'm gonna kick their f***** ass. See, I'm totally a do-gooder too," she explains.

Nightwing has posed:
Nightwing smiles a little wider, "Definitely not Ivy's..." he confirms with a shake of his head. "...just a friend that has too many to notice one missing is all." And he leaves it at that. He nods once to the recommendation, good working order is what he was aiming for, and he adds "So, you got a place you're going to hide it so someone doesn't bash it up again?"

"Nah..." He shakes his head at her question, "..I think it's something you find to do, and you know you're good at it so 'why not'." His face frowns at the story of her coworker, "Wait?! What?!?" His stance a little more aware, his features more focused, "What happened? Was it someone you all work with that did it? Why was she trying to get away?" Then he focuses on the second part, "Ok, so I'm not that opposed to ass kickery, but we need to make sure they don't do it again... /without/ killing them." Then, with a grin, he adds "Totally a do-gooder."

Ravager has posed:
Rose Wilson frowns and crosses her arms, "Why you being so nice to me? Usually you hate my plans," she explains to him and then blurts out, "Cause they f***** met her outside after her shift and they f***** tried to get her to go home with them. They're gangsters and I don't care who their boss is and I don't care who they are. I'll teach them a lesson," she explains. She looks down at the ground, then at the bike again as he reminds her not to kill them, which maybe she'll remember, maybe she won't. "She had to go to the god damn hospital, obviously," she tells him.

Nightwing has posed:
Nightwing lets out a long sigh, as he shakes his head "First off, there's nothing wrong with being nice to people, you or otherwise..." He refocuses his gaze on Rose, face a little more stern, "Second, I only hate the plans that end up in someone dying, or you starting a gang war..." the sternness slowly dissipates as he adds, "Third and Final, I'd like to help, because beating the hell out of them will be satisfying, but won't solve the bigger problem."

He listens intently, all joking gone from his demeanor, about what happened to Miranda. "How is she doing?" of course he asks, he is a Boy Scout after all, but the concern is genuine. "Yes. We'll teach them a lesson, but let's make sure it's a long term lesson, right?" Again, taking on the role of mentor, or at least he's trying to...

"Is she still at the hospital? We should make sure no one pays her a visit to keep quiet. I can set something up that'll keep a watch on her room." Taking a step back, he asks, "Ok, so what's the plan other than giving them a beating?"

Ravager has posed:
Rose Wilson gives a nod with what he says, "Yeah, she's alright. It's not something these gangers planned I don't think, but they're still jackasses," she explains, "See, that's the real problem. There's gangers all over the god damn neighborhood. The bar is pretty much owned by the Yazuka. I tried to tell you this before," she explains.

Nightwing has posed:
"I'm glad she's doing ok..." Nightwing responds back to Rose, "...how about this..." he thinks about it for a moment, "Let me go back, and get my gear. I'll come back, we'll track them down, and see what we can find out." shrugging his shoulder, "Since I didn't listen last time, it's the least I can do, ok?" He seems serious about the offer, and bringing her along as well. "We'll sort out the bangers AND take a look into the bar. Fair enough?"

Ravager has posed:
Rose Wilson smirks again, "You just want to keep an eye on me," she mutters, then sighs, "Fine, whatever. This still doesn't solve the problem. But whatever, I'm kicking their ass," she tells him.
