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

[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.)

[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.

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.

[He lands next to her. His flight is still half-leaping, so it's harder to control than what people think.]

Hi, Cassandra. Are you liking London so far?

[She stares maybe a little too long when she notices that, but once he's talking she's trying to just concentrate on having a conversation instead of wondering why Superman can't just fly fly.]

Yes. It's like Gotham, kind of. CES has... trees, nature things. I like cities.

[He looks down, to the city. Then in front of them, to all the lights and cars and people...]

I can see how some people would like it, but I like being alone. The city has too many sounds, too many things going on at night.

Especially a big one like London.

[hellofist]

[That makes sense, seeing as how he can hear everything, probably.]

Barbara says... can't stay alone forever. Not good for you. People need... people. Vitamin D. Outside.

[hetrustsme]

[He smiles as he turns his head towards her. Focusing on someone's voice helps him tune out everything else.]

I actually live off Vitamin D, dear. My powers... well, they come from the sunlight. I just enjoy the sun most when I'm alone.

[Like in his fortress. Of solitude.]

[hellofist]

Yeah. It's... hard, being around people. Still getting used to it. But... it's good, more than bad.

[hetrustsme]

It is, as long as you're with the right people. [He lets his legs dangle.]

You know, I think it's the first time I've actually visited London. I saw it from above in passing, but that was all.

[hellofist]

I am.

[She smiles at him and it's clear she's including him in that.]

Bet you've seen... lots of places. Where's your favorite?

[hetrustsme]

My fortress. [He doesn't even have to think about that one, there's a reason it's his room on the barge.] I felt at home at the farm and I... have always liked Metropolis but I never feel truly at ease until I'm back there.

[hellofist]

Fortress? What's it like?
