Gorilla Grodd has posed:
Gorilla Grodd uses his telepathic projector to reach out to Rose wherever she might be in a 200 mile area of New York, relatively sure she is and projects a location he wants her to come to. It's a beach in the middle of nowhere, but he ideas. He wants to see where she fits into those ideas.

Ravager has posed:
Ravager feels compelled to join the Gorilla for some reason and packs very little to trapse across state to reach him. She wears a hoodie but she feels compelled to wear her full regalia like she hasn't worn in a long time. Her chainmail vest and orange gloves and boots peek underneath her disguise. She pulls her hoodie back as she walks onto the desolate beach, wearing her orange and black mask too. She looks like DEATH. "Only an asshole would bring me to a beach in the middle of winter," she explains.

Gorilla Grodd has posed:
Gorilla Grodd says, "First, lets be clear, I am an asshole, we've always known that. Second, while I was very ...fluid in the discretion of tasks I gave you I might not have been clear that 'zero' was not exactly an acceptable rate of progress on any of them. Indeed, based on my intelligence you havent been doing much work at all."

Ravager has posed:
Ravager frowns, "What tasks? Don't try to play mind games with me," she tells him, and puts a hand on her hip, "I'm not an errand girl. I'm Ravager," she explains, not saying anything more about jobs, "I'm ...selective."

Gorilla Grodd has posed:
Gorilla Grodd says, "I have a list of people who are to be removed and people who are to be monitored. I had a specific list and money I would pay you for choosing any of them. You don't have to be an errand girl, you just have to be a weapon." He begins reaching into her mind, trying to find out what she is hiding."

Ravager has posed:
Ravager takes a step back as Grodd reads her mind, "Stop!" she lets out, as Grodd reads Rose's thoughts about her new friends, Caitlin, Superboy and her mentor and sensei Dick. "I'm not a weapon, I choose what I do," she whines. She takes out a dagger from her hip.

Gorilla Grodd has posed:
Gorilla Grodd laughs and smiles. He begins to assault her mind and puts up a telekinetic shield. He slowly begins to make her realize that she is a weapon, to sharpen her instinct.

Ravager has posed:
Ravager struggles against his probing, "Stop..." she says a bit weaker. She drops the dagger, unable to concentrate and runs her hands down her mask over her face. "I...didn't follow our agreement..." she admits, after lowering her hands again.

Gorilla Grodd has posed:
Gorilla Grodd says, "You didn't. And lets be honest, regardless of my anger...is it like you to break your word? Who are you? A hero....or someone who keeps her word?" He increases the strength of his will in her mind."

Ravager has posed:
Ravager falls to the sand and quivers as she says, "I'm Ravager you shit! I'll fuckin stab your ass," she mutters and looks up, "I...always keep my word," she explains, "I'm Ravager..." she mutters now, picturing in her mind a vicious Ravager.

Gorilla Grodd has posed:
Gorilla Grodd says, "Your will is your own, but I want you to consider the simple fact that you chose who you were before...what made you soften your stance? I mean, your skills were hard won. Did you even use them to help your friends?"

Ravager has posed:
Ravager stands up and points at Grodd, "No!" she says embarrasedly, "I'm not soft," she tells him, "I wanted something normal so I did something normal. What's wrong with that?" she wonders.

Gorilla Grodd has posed:
Gorilla Grodd says, "Normal? What the hades is normal dear? The world is full of wonder, and if you want mundane you can have that any day of the week. But if you wanted 'normal' why did you seek out two boys that dress as birds and two aliens? Is normal what you really want?" He uses his telepathy to force the truth in her mind, not even bothering to condition her."

Ravager has posed:
Ravager raises her chin so she can stop looking at Grodd, "Yes, I'm not a murderer...I choose...what..." she trails off, realizing how stupid she sounds repeating herself, "I'm sorry Grodd. I was unprofessional and lazy just doing whatever shit I wanted. I will get back to work," she promises, looking back at him.

Gorilla Grodd has posed:
Gorilla Grodd says, "Frankly, Ravager," he uses her name, "I dont care if you disappear anyone on my list. I don't need them DEAD unless I expclitely say it. I just want them permanently removed. Lobotomize them, send them to outer space, I dont care. Just no witnesses and no mess. And good, I'm glad we reached an understanding my dear"

Ravager has posed:
Ravager nods to what he says, "I'll drop them off a short pier then," she explains amusedly. "It won't take me very long," she tells him, "Then I'll have lived up to my word."
