Seventh Unused Utility Belt | Video, forward dated to after dark

[hellofist]

[When the feed clicks on, Cassandra isn't actually in view. Instead, the first thing seen is London at night... from very high up. She's filming mostly for herself, so she can go back and look at London from a thousand feet in the air again, but it seems like a good thing to show the rest of the Barge, too.]

Missed cities. Nothing feels better than... being up high, seeing everything. Wish I had parachute, would jump.

[She turns the camera around to show herself dressed in the batsuit, tugging the cowl off once she's in view.]

Never been to London, so I figure... climb to top of everything. Might never get to, if not now. There's a big clock, might be next. Any suggestions?


(ooc: Cass has climbed to the top of this. It's only the tallest building in the UK it's nbd.)

Be careful, I'm not sure if the police are friendly to vigilantes in this world.

[hellofist]

Have to catch me, first.

[There's a long pause after that, but finally she adds in a little softer,]

... Will be careful.

[Kal doesn't reply to the network, instead he simply flies up to meet her on top of the building, landing by her side.]

You know, the police might have something to say about you climbing the Big Ben. They are fond of it.

[fuckingvisions]

That big clock would be called Big Ben, love. And if you go up atop there, snap a picture for me if you do.

[hellofist]

Could do it without... them seeing.

[She's a little more quiet, a little more subdued since they last talked. Losing a brother tends to do that to a person.]

Hi, Superman.

[hellofist]

Funny name for clock. It's not... that big.

Will take pictures, though. You could always... go up too.

[takeyouapart]

[He's obviously concerned because THAT IS A REALLY LONG WAY UP, CASS but at the same time, he does trust her to know what she's doing.]

How's the weather up there?

[ichoosefight]

So what you're saying is, rooftop tag?

[hellofist]

Windy. Suit keeps cold out.

[And wow, she didn't actually realize how much she wanted to see him until just now. All that worry, but he pushes it down and just lets her be her own weird way.]

Enjoying London?

[hellofist]

Yes.

[A beat and Cass tips the camera down so Steph can see exactly how high up she is.]

Can't start here, though. Might have... to come down.

[love_slave]

I've never been to London.

[She sees that way high up, and you know what? She wants up there, too.] Where are you?

[fuckingvisions]

Standin' on tall buildin's is one thing but I ain't exactly up to climbin' that many stairs love. Thanks though, a picture will be just fine.

And be careful out there.

[hellofist]

Um-

[With one hand hanging onto the building, Cass leans way out to get a good shot of the Shard. It's all lit up in blue, not to mention the tallest thing in the city, so it should be easy to find.]

Looks like that. Pretty, huh?

[takeyouapart]

I am. [He turns his communicator around to move it in a slow sweep; he's on the south bank of the Thames, and the lights of the city are glittering on the water.]

It's incredible. I've seen other cities from this time, New York and Paris, but...I could never have imagined Albion like this.

[hellofist]

Will be fine, have grappling hook. If I fall, can shoot it. Swing onto something else.

[fuckingvisions]

You realize I'm a wee bit heavier then I look right Darlin'?

[ He's totally wanting to say yes.]

[hellofist]

Wow... beautiful. Gonna go swimming?

[As nice as London looks from up high, the lights on the river look even better. If it were her, he'd give the swimming thing a shot just to say she had.]

[hellofist]

Line can support me and Tim, can- [She falters a bit when that name slips out, but then just presses forward to try to cover it up.] Can support you too.

[fuckingvisions]

[ He's caught her slip up but he was not gonna say anything about it since he'd heard a few people mention Tim before and clearly he was no wizard from the Holy Grail. ]

Alright then love, you convinced me, where should I meet you then?

[takeyouapart]

Think I'll give it a miss. Doesn't look clean enough.

[Also the occasional large boat.]

[Private]

Are you...going to be climbing things every night you're here?

[hellofist]

Bottom of building? No sirens yet, so still have time.

Private

[hellofist]

No, don't want to... miss other things. Big city, lots of stuff to see.

[fuckingvisions]

That's cause their brit's love, they aren't that quick on the jump.

[ He's a little sore they ended up in London instead of Dublin.] I'll be there right quick then. I ain't that far away.

Private

[takeyouapart]

Yes, there is.

[A pause.]

I was wondering if we might go out, together, tomorrow night.

Private

[hellofist]

Okay. Would like that.

[Is there something you're not telling her, Merlin? Your body language is a little wonky and your pauses usually mean something.]

Have plan? Or just... see what happens?
