Up in the sky, it's a... Bird.
Date of Scene: 11 January 2019
Location: Unknown
Synopsis: Summary needed
Cast of Characters: Shadow, Fairchild, Power Girl, Oracle, June Connor




Shadow has posed:
    The Shadow takes another measuring look at the girl sharing the cab, then reaches a decision and takes out the smartphone Oracle prepared for each of the Birds, typing out a pair of quick messages.

    >>> PG, Oracle: I have an escaped metahuman on the run from a black ops organization she calls 'NOWHERE' with me. Oracle, any information you can find will be useful. Power Girl, if you can meet us at this address with a spare set of your clothes, including underwear, she'll appreciate it.

A quick photo of Cait is attached, and the message is sent on its way.

Fairchild has posed:
Caitlin Fairchild Looks over still trying to hold what little of her clothing is together.. thankfully as bad as she's just got shreds of outfit nothing is shown.. even as she looks over " So umm where are we going? " She asks

Power Girl has posed:
    Power Girl is WAY overhead of where the meeting place is. Cuz that's the power of a Kryptonian. She's also holding an extra set of clothes under her arm as she flies there. "Shadow doesn't ask for much, does she?" She says looking at the clothes. She brought some of her nerdiest clothes to wear, but she also brought some underwear....what little of it there is.

Oracle has posed:
    Shadow's headset crackles with an electronically-altered voice. >>> This is Oracle. I read you, Shadow. Running a search on NOWHERE now. The name is familiar, but details are a bit sketchy. Do you have a safe place for her? <<<

    The image comes through and Barbara runs another search on the photo. While data starts running on another of her many screens.

    >>> Okay, this just adds to my general dislike of groups that experiment on metahumans. It's going to take a while to peel much back on NOWHERE, but I'm not seeing any socially-redeeming qualities with these folks. If she's interested, I'd very much like to talk with her. <<<

Shadow has posed:
    Directly below Karen, an unremarkable cab turns into an otherwise vacant lot.

    "As I said earlier... I am not without allies," the Shadow replies, eyes crinkling slightly in what is probably a gentler smile underneath the scarf as they open the door and exits, holding it open for Cait to follow. "Including some who actually /does/ have a bra in your size."

    After that cryptic comment, they tilt their head, looking straight upward at a strangely immobile dot in the sky above them...

    >>> Oracle: We may need to arrange a safehouse for her, at least temporarily. But for now I'm hoping meeting Power Girl will convince her we're trustworthy enough to tell her story to.

Fairchild has posed:
Caitlin Fairchild Nods her head trying not to keep blushing.. but she's still holding the tatters of her clothing as she looks around then looks up " hmmm really that's funny cause I always have to order custom. I'm at the point where I think what's the bloody point cause they always I mean always tear when I get attacked or try and save somebody? " She says and blinks " holy Rao is that ? " of course she's got good eyesight not Kryptonian level but better than average.

Power Girl has posed:
    Only THEN does the dot move.....and it's coming straight for them. It moves rather fast until it's only a few feet from the ground, where it reveals itself to be.....

Power Girl.

She lands gently and nods to Shadow, before looking to Caitlin. "Yup. You definitely need some clothes." She then chuckles a bit. "I have to tell guys my eyes are up here, but man...you've got me beat." She says before giving Caitlin the clothes. "How'd you shred your clothes? I mean...I can understan why Hulk Hogan does it, but....ALL of your clothes?" From the way she's smiling...she's trying to make Cailtin feel more safe and comfortable.

Oracle has posed:
    >>> Safehouse, check. You have any preferences on a city, Shadow? When Power Girl arrives, you'll have all the transportation you need. Actually, offer the girl the choice. If she's recently escaped, allowing even small choices can be very empowering. <<<

    Read psychology much, anyone?

     >>> I'm in a holding pattern here, unless you need additional backup. <<< Which, considering the assets already on-scene, is very unlikely.

June Connor has posed:
    June, who doesn't generally do costumes, stepped out of the Clocktower wearing the green coat Drake got her from Christmas, fur hood draped behind her. The legs in black jeans jog across the street, and she cuts through an alley to make it to the park faster. "So what'd this bitch do anyway?" she asks Babs and Shadow over the comms. She spots the cab as Shadow and Caitlin exit, and takes up an observation post on the ground. "Shit, why the fuck is she naked?" she asks when she sees Caitlin exit. "It's January. Need somebody to grab her some clothes or something?"

Shadow has posed:
    The Shadow turns to Cait. "It appears she doesn't need an introduction. Power Girl, the young woman is named Caitlin, last name currently undisclosed. Apparently the clothing damage is due to the people who wanted to keep her from leaving, and she and some others are in need of assistance. I felt further explanations and questions could at least wait until she had the opportunity to put on some clothes..."

Fairchild has posed:
Caitlin Fairchild Wants to talk she really does but right now her eye's are super wide her jaw is open and she's got the holy crap it's really her look on her face.. before she blushes and tugs the tiny shreds of her outfit to try and hide a bit.. of course when your face to face with one of your hero's and your brain already runs at 1000 miles an hr what happens.. yep she starts talking in Kryptonian < I'm sorry my skin can take bullets my outfits can't.. I'm so embarrassed >.

Power Girl has posed:
    Power Girl raises an eyebrow as Caitlin speaks in kryptonian...and she looks to Shadow. "I don't think you knew she could do that, huh?" She then looks back to Caitlin and.....waves a bra in front of the red head's face. <Despite the fact that you just spoke in Kryptonian, I'm not that bothered by your nudity. But...how about we change back to english and....you put on some clothes. Mainly because it's cold out here and a naked red head is going to draw a bit of attention. PLus I wanna see if this bra fits you. Though I'm pretty sure it will.>

Oracle has posed:
    Caitlin. Barbara files that away. Over the comm channel, Oracle's masked voice adds commentary.

    >>> I'm getting absolutely nothing on the girl, at least not based on the image. It's like she doesn't exist. Anywhere. Makes me wonder whether NOWHERE is out robbing cradles or something. People like this don't just fall out of the sky. <<< Beat. >>> Most of the time. Caitlin sounds more embarrassed than scared, from what I can pick up through the chatter. Definitely see if she'll trust you enough to come in. <<<

Shadow has posed:
    >>> Oracle: I doubt that'll be a problem. But I suspect she'll open up to Power Girl much more easily than the Shadow...]

June Connor has posed:
    June shoves her hands in her pockets, walking up toward the others. She arches a brow at the sight of Power Girl decending, a mild scowl crossing her face. Still, this isn't the time for her personal grudge. A walking young man passes by with his dog, and naturally, he is watching in Caitlin's direction.

    June approaches the man, and gives him a palm strike to the shoulder, shaking his attention toward her. "Fucker get your eyes on where you're goin', this ain't a fuckin' peep show." He startles as he is knocked back, and raises his free hand in defense, "Hey, sorry sorry."
    June sneers her pierced like. "Damn straight you are," she answers, watching hime continue on before she walks up toward the others.

Fairchild has posed:
Caitlin Fairchild Eeps and turns even deeper red and stares at the ground as she quickly snatches the bra and tries to put it on.. while her clothes are shredded nothing is showing thankfully least till she quickly rips the rest off and puts the bra on only to blink and look down " wow this is like the first comfortable bra I've ever had! where do you get them? " She looks down in surprise.. while they are a touch big it's not super apparent.

Power Girl has posed:
    Power girl chuckles a bit. "That's confidential, but I'm sure a friend of mine can hook you up with some comfy undies." She then puts the rest of the clothes in Caitlin's hands. "Put the rest on. I even brought shoes." She then looks over to June and rolls her eyes. "Don't worry...you're pretty safe here.....We have friends."

Oracle has posed:
    Oracle's electronic voice chirps into the comm units again. >>> Keep it civil, June. Protection is good, but there's no need to upset the neighbors if we can help it. <<< A soft chuckle follows. >>> Why do I get the idea that this conversation would be more appropriate in the changing room of a department store? Can we just get her dressed and get her off the street? You're getting really exposed over there. <<<

    Some more than others.

June Connor has posed:
    "I am civil," June says back into the comm. "I didn't punch him hard or anything," she defends. "Yeah, it's cold as a witch's tit out here." She looks around, "Look, there's a Big Belly over there, can like get change in the restroom or something. At least it's warm."

Fairchild has posed:
Caitlin Fairchild Blinks " Right cold I forgot about that after the change " She quickly tries to get dressed and uses the cab to hide herself " I'd like to get out of here. being out in the open is not a good thing.. they are a dark group connected to the government but doesn't mean they don't have a lot of resources.".

Power Girl has posed:
    "I know what you mean Caitlin." POwer Girl says as she looks to June, then touches her own comm. >>Oracle. Can you find a nearby department store that has changing rooms, and workers that don't mind helping Supers...discreetly.<<

Oracle has posed:
    Oracle's sigh is almost muffled by the electronics. Almost. Then the request for a changing room comes. >>> On it, Power Girl. Just a second. <<< A moment later she replies. >>> You're in luck, actually. Next block over and two blocks down. And be happy you're not in Manhattan. Be prepared to buy something, all the same. <<<

June Connor has posed:
    June frowns, glancing down the street. "Well, I for one would rather take the cab," she decides. "If it's a block and a half." She gestures with her hand in a 'shooing' manner at Caitlin to indicate her to get in the car. "Come on, get in, I don't wanna stand out here all night."
