Wonder Woman has posed:
Its Christmas time in Central Park and there's a lot of winter wonderland experiences going on within it. Diana Prince, aka Wonder Woman, is the key figure in one of thse... 'Wonder Land' events going on here today.

Children are lined up for all the festivities and obviously the main attraction is the Santa Workshop next to the iced-over pond where there are even little holes cut in the ice where people can sit and do a little 'ice fishing' for presents that have been put inside of plastic balls and dropped into the cold water below.

Park officials stand next to the ice holes (gasp!) monitoring them and offering children supervised chances to fish for hidden presents beneath the surface of the frozen water.

Diana Prince herself? She's happily making her way through the crowds, talking and laughing with others. She's wearing her Amazon armor, but she has a jacket on over it and some dark blue slim-fit pants beneath the skirt that are tucked into her armored boots.

Diana is playing the happy public figure role here and now amongst the citizens of Manhattan.

Black Canary has posed:
Amongst the revelers, one figure stands out a little, if only because she is dressed all in black. Indeed, Dinah might even have worn something more colourful, if she owned it. Well...there IS a Santa hat that contrasts sharply with her black leather boots, pants, and vest. And y'know, the black shirt. Who says she can't be festive?

Wonder Woman has posed:
Diana is separating herself from the crowds for a moment and she's walking down the side of the frozen lake, happening to pass by Canary. She stuffs her hands into her dark blue jacket's side pockets and she looks to Dinah and offers the woman in black a big smile, the corners of her red painted lips turning upward in a pleasant expression.

"I hope you are enjoying yourself?" She asked the other woman, her accented voice was certainly non-American in origin but it was also filled with a warmth and kindness that most people found very comforting.

"I like your hate." Diana added to Dinah, showing a hint of a grin then.

Black Canary has posed:
Dinah offers the woman a bright smile, her cheeks flushed with the blustery cold of the afternoon. "Oh, definitely! There are so many more people here than where I live, in Starling. That's in British Columbia, you know. I'm just visiting. It's nice here. Sometimes I wish I lived where there were more people." She winks and looks around at all the people having fun. There isn't a chance in the world she hasn't recognized Diana. She's idolized her since she was a kid. "And you? Just out for a leisurely stroll? I'd expect you to have bigger fish to fry," she adds, as a kid on the lake makes a catch.

"I got a BIG ONE!!" the boy announces, pulling his bubble out of the lake.

Wonder Woman has posed:
Diana went to stand beside Dinah then and turned to look at the frozen wonderland in the same way that the other woman was, she kep ther hands inside of her jacket pockets and she just kept on smiling. As Diana breathed, her breath came out in poofs of steam before her lips.

"Oh, I have... fried up plenty of big fish for the day." She said then, glancing over to Dinah and grinning a little more. "I have told my escorts... that I wanted some time to stroll and experience the atmosphere. You know... Live in the moment?"

She looked to the boy who caught something and it made her draw her hands from her jacket and applaud for him. She shouted a small bit of encouragement to the young one and then looked back to Dinah.

"I have been to Starling... some time ago. It is a very lovely place."

Black Canary has posed:
"I agree, it's nice. I can't complain." Dinah grins along with Diana, and applauds as well, with a resounding, "Bravo! Good on ya, eh?"

Then, turning back to Diana, she smiles. "I'm glad you've a moment's peace, to enjoy the day. It's gorgeous...supposed to be colder soon I've heard."

Wonder Woman has posed:
Diana would glance toward the sky when Dinah mentioned the impending cold. She'd drw in a breath and then smiled again. "That is what makes the fireplace so much more fun to go home to. Let alone the cocoa and a nice blanket." She looked back down with a grin to the other woman.

"So what is it that brings you to Manhattan, Miss...?" She would ask then, fishing around for a name too.

Black Canary has posed:
"Dinah. And I'm just I'm the States spending time with someone. I was in Gotham for a few days, but he has some business to attend, so I'm taking a day or two to see the sights as well." Dinah grins, watching a toddler who's barely steady on her feet, pulling up a prize bubble. "Rather enjoying it. Kind of peaceful, really."

Wonder Woman has posed:
Diana would nod her head softly to this and then extend to her her right hand. "Dinah? Hello." She'd say. "Diana... We are almost name twins." She'd grin playfull then. "Well... I am glad that you get to come to the city during this time of year. I have been living here for almost a decade now and this truly is the most wonderful time to visit Manhattan. And... thankfully... in my experience within it, it is oen of the safer times of the year to be here too."

Black Canary has posed:
"That, I don't doubt," Dinah replies, shaking hands with Diana. "Wish things were always this quiet. But I suppose we'd be out of a job, then. I bet a desk job on the 130th floor of one of those buildings isn't all it's cracked up to be."

Wonder Woman has posed:
Diana would look to one of the skyrises and softly shake her head. "The view from up there is quite enjoyable. I would hate to think someone would ever take that for granted, at the very least."

She'd look back to Dinah then and smile softly. "So what is it that you do for a living, if I might be so rude as to inquire?" Another little grin was shown then.

Black Canary has posed:
"I ...sing. Mostly. And y'know, arrange flowers and stuff on the side to make sure I eat." She looks up at the skyscraper and shakes her head. "Maybe so, but I'd sure rather be down here mingling and enjoying the day, than chained to a desk up there."

Wonder Woman has posed:
Diana looked a bit more upbeat when she heard about the flowers. "You operate a floral business?" She asked the other. "Do you have a... online store a phone number that I could order from? But I suppose you don't ship flowers to Manhattan though, huh?" A light exhale was released.

"If you ship to here though, I would be very eager to be a new customer! We buy flowers for the Embassy quite often and I truly do wish to support smaller business, rather than the alternative."

Black Canary has posed:
"Are you kidding?" Dinah breathes. "With the advances in travel I can make it from Starling to Manhattan in an hour. I'd love to give a complimentary delivery, just to show you what I can do!" She pulls out a card, and hands it to Diana. "My number, and my website and email. Feel free to let me know what you need, and I'll be glad to deliver it myself!" Because she doesn't really have anyone else to deliver to Manhattan, anyway.

Wonder Woman has posed:
Diana reached her right hand out and accepted the card between her forefinger and middle finger. She pulled it back into her other hand and looked down at it with a smile. "I shall do that." She told her. "And perhaps share it around some so that you might grow a customer base here also? If that is something you would so desire?"

The card was tucked into the pocket of her jacket and put into the satefy of a little pocket inside the pocket. "I shall e-mail you all my favorite plants and demand you deliver them to me post-haste!" Diana laughed softly then.

Black Canary has posed:
Dinah is just too stunned to speak, so she nods. A lot. And finally realizes she's nodding. And then finally remembers to stop nodding. "N-no seriously. Really just let me know!" Big dumb grin. No, Dinah, you don't look stupid at all.

Wonder Woman has posed:
Diana would nod her head softly two quick times to this before she'd reach out again to offer her hand to shake once more. "I will do so, Miss Dinah." She'd say to the other. "I best get back to my duties." There were already a group of people walking toward them with the intentions of coming after Diana to gather her up again for pictures and more chit chat.

Black Canary has posed:
"A real pleasure...thank you Diana. I hope you have a beautiful day!" She shakes her hand and steps away, letting the group take Diana to her next duties. And with a HUGE smile on her face, Dinah practically skips on down the sidewalk.
