She-Hulk has posed:
She-Hulk is often her green self these days, less often in her Jennifer form. She even has clothes that fit her when she's this size. Tonight She-Hulk is exploring Gotham City, home of Batman, the Joker, and Catwoman. She doesn't expect to actually see any of them but this is a famous city whether one meets the local celebrities or not. The people of Gotham are certainly used to strangeness, but She-Hulk is given no shortage of looks as she confidentally strides down the sidewalk and hums to herself lightheartedly, a fist full of shopping bags full of clothes in one hand, her purse in the other.

Carrie Kelley has posed:
Even in Gotham it wasn't every day that you saw an Avenger roaming down the streets, especially one that stood out so obviously. It was apparently Carrie's lucky day. She'd just stepped out of a shop where she had been browsing some items well out of her price range and blinks as the small crowd parting for Shulkie draws her attention to the taller woman. A slow grin spreads over her face, and she reaches for the pack at her side only to pause. Thinking better of pulling a camera out she strides over to the Avenger with her hand lifting in a perhaps unnecessary wave. "Not often Gotham gets visitors like you. She-Hulk, right?"

She-Hulk has posed:
She-Hulk looks down at Carrie as she approaches and speaks to her, "Yep that's me!" At Carrie's observation she replies, "Have you seen Batman? I heard that there's some scientist who transforms into a bat. Are they the same guy.. bat.. person? Honestly I'd love to meet him.. them.. I'm sure it will sort itself out right?" She looks down at her bags, "You know if I am going to stay in this form.. maybe I should donate all of my smaller clothes.."

Carrie Kelley has posed:
Carrie Kelley laughs a bit at the mention of the scientist shaking her head. "That's... someone else entirely. Everyone in Gotham know Batman. He's just... Batman. Doesn't transform or anything, though I think he has fought someone like that before," she admits with a small shrug. "I ran into him once. I can't say I know him though. Unlike over in New York, a lot of those that work in Gotham have secret identities. I'm Carrie Kelley, by the way. I attend college here and met Tony Stark about a month ago."

She-Hulk has posed:
She-Hulk smiles, "Oh! Well that's good to know! So Batman is just an ordinary guy huh? Well.. as far as ordinary guys who fight crime dressed in black armor go right?" She laughs, "I don't see the need to hide who I am. In fact I love this new me! I was a.. different person before this Shulkie business you know." She nods at the mention of Stark, "Yeah Tony Stark.. kind of wish I had his life but.. I don't know what I'd do with all that money honestly." She thinks for a moment, "I'd probably shop it all away.. but then I guess that's why I'm not rich!"

Carrie Kelley has posed:
Carrie Kelley laughs a bit at that while nodding in agreement. "I can think of too many ways to spend it myself," she agrees even if the shopping part might not be an issue. At least not for clothes. "I've been lucky enough with who I've gotten to meet though. It's just such an interesting difference between you guys and... well. Him." A hand is waved gesturing at the rooftops as if to indicate the guardian of Gotham. "What brings you to town anyway? We're not all that exciting out here."

She-Hulk has posed:
She-Hulk shrugs, "Honestly? I kind of wanted to meet Batman, see if he could really turn into a bat, maybe see him fight crime a bit if someone like the Joker decided to come out to play. And if.. I happened to be here to help? Well.." She grins, "Let's just say that sometimes the same city with the same criminals can get a little boring. Of course I can't be gone too long. The bad guys will get a bit too relaxed without me to play whack-a-mole with them when they rear their heads."

Carrie Kelley has posed:
Carrie Kelley tilts her head to the side considering that take on things. "I can't say as I really considered that before. I'm usually on the other end of things, being a civilian. Sure it sucks having the same criminals but at least if you know them you kind of know how to avoid them. In another city, I don't know if I'd know how to handle myself." She frowns a moment as she rubs her elbow with one arm. "Plus the last time I was in New York I got kidnapped by a spider guy because he thought I was taking photographs of him to sell to the Bugle. I did get a nice tour of the city out of it, but still, that wasn't how I planned to spend my night." Shaking her head to rid of her of the thought she grins back to Shulkie. "Can't say as I can point you in the right direction to meet him, but I could tell you some less pleasant parts of the city if you're set on trying."

She-Hulk has posed:
She-Hulk thinks for a moment, "Spider guy... kidnapped you??! Really?! Do you mean..? No it couldn't have been Spiderman... could it? Did he have a red and blue suit? Masked with really big eyes? He's.. usually nicer than that. Funny guy.. bit of a smart ass.. like me in fact."

Carrie Kelley has posed:
Carrie Kelley gives a quick laugh at the confusion. "I don't think he meant it that way but kind of that's what happened. This guy was... Scarlet Spider? Red and black suit," she explains. "He just yanked me up off the street with some of that webbing. So technically, yeah he kidnapped me. He apologized a lot about it," she adds with a shake of her head as she grins. "But that did scare me to death at first."

She-Hulk has posed:
She-Hulk narrows her eyes, "Well it still wasn't very nice of him. I mean.. how do you not know that yanking someone into the air like a toy isn't going to scare them? I may have to talk to this guy about that.. I mean what is he? An alien or something? A Spiderman copy cat who doesn't understand basic civilized behavior.. huh.. you know I think I've been away from New York City just a BIT longer than I thought.."

Carrie Kelley has posed:
Carrie Kelley spreads her hands in a helpless shrug. "I didn't really ask. I think he's just... one of the spider guys? I mean, aren't there a couple of them?" At least she'd thought so. Maybe it was just costume changes. "As it is I need to hunt him down again. He offered to buy my pictures off of me but I didn't have any anyway. When I left though I found he'd stuffed a wad of cash in my pocket." She frowns at this, arms crossing over her chest stubbornly. "I don't take handouts and I don't want money even if he was being stupid."

She-Hulk has posed:
She-Hulk sighs, "Okay maybe he's not a villain but.. he can't just yank people into the air like that. I'm thinking that there's more to this Scarlet Spider than the whole 'normal life until I got my powers' story that most of us have. Yep he's either a lunatic or.. well.. he was raised by wolves. No way of knowing until someone asks him." She ponders the cash, "Well you could have just given it to charity or something then right? The cash I mean? And who carries around bulk amounts of cash these days anyway? Could he have stolen it? It's like the entire city went insane in my absence.." Shulkie sighs again.

Carrie Kelley has posed:
Carrie Kelley considers that a moment. "I hadn't thought that he'd stolen it," she admits with a frown. "That would be... hm. I could donate it, yeah, but I don't know. It just pisses me off when people try to do things like that. Like they think I can't make my own decisions." Scowling she looks up to Shulkie again. "I'll be back in New York again shortly myself. I talked Tony into letting me redo the PR video for the Avengers website. It's really bad. He said I could come out and take some video at the Avenger Mansion. I haven't had a chance to yet but with Summer vacation I'll have plenty of time to."

She-Hulk has posed:
She-Hulk blinks, "We have a website now? Since when? What picture do they have of me on there?! No one asked me about this!" Shulkie's eyes are wide, "Tony, Tony, Tony.." She looks at Carrie, "Seriously I need to see this website.."

Carrie Kelley has posed:
Carrie Kelley holds up her hands with a little laugh. "It's not really good, which is what I told him when I demanded the chance to redo the video. It's just some stupid little 'tour' of the Avenger Mansion. Like 'this is where we work, we live in this city too, we're part of this city and protecting you.' It's... it's really bad," she has to admit. "There's not really any pictures of you all individually. I suppose that could change though if you want something in it."

She-Hulk has posed:
She-Hulk sighs with relief, "Oh thank GOD.. seriously.. wow.. okay." She takes a deep breath, "Yes a horrible video about the Avengers Mansion is fine. Tony can embarass himself all he wants to as long as he doesn't include me! After all my day job IS being an upstanding lawyer of great repute! As far as pictures of me being on the site at all? Well that is something we will have to discuss at length and I will be hand selecting any images or videos of me that appear there. Tony is not to have any say in it.. not at all. Don't let Thor choose either.. or Steven.. okay just erase everything in Tony's database that has me in it and we will start fresh."

Carrie Kelley has posed:
"Don't worry," Carrie assures, "I'm not using any of the footage he has. I'm recording my own." A hand pats against the satchel at her side which seemed a bit heavy duty for keeping mere books safe. "Right now I've just been shooting some scenes in New York itself to work on the setting. Filler video. B reel. Whatever you'd like to call it. I've got some nice views from Central Park and other areas. I'm trying to get some scenes of the city that are familiar to those that actually live there, and not the standard stuff you'd see in movies or the like. Make it a bit more personal to New Yorkers."

She-Hulk has posed:
She-Hulk nods, "Well that sounds great! I think Tony should stick to engineering and.. leave the art to the artists. My cousin is probably still wandering like a nomad though, so don't expect him to even be around any time soon to add to your project. Chances are any depiction of him will be too scary for a "we are people like you" message anyway. I am the calmer Hulk by far."

Carrie Kelley has posed:
Carrie Kelley grins broadly, "Which is why I'd love it if you'd like to be in it. I'm more than willing to let anything be reviewed so that you're seen in the best light you want. Women aren't depicted as well as they ought to be in cinema and TV as it is, I want to do it right for this. Even if I'm just a student."

She-Hulk has posed:
She-Hulk thinks, "Well.. alright you sound like you know what you are doing but.. yes I want to see anything of me that goes into your project. And as for Scarlet Spider? It sounds like he just needs to be house trained.. or city trained.. people trained..?"

Carrie Kelley has posed:
"People trained," Carrie agrees with a solemn nod and a wry grin. "Well then! If that's settled... Not to be weird, but let me give you my number to follow up on this sometime. I'm sure you've got plenty you want to do tonight after all." She fishes into her pocket looking for a pen and peice of paper.

She-Hulk has posed:
She-Hulk nods as well, "Sure! I even bought a bigger smart phone.. I mean.. not that it's any less fragile but at least I won't press the entire screen down when I text.."
