Mistress Dizzy

Ack! I am so sorry. I've totally been there... I apologize for the speed posting. *puts the brakes on* Man, usually I'm on the other side of things where I can't keep up... now I'm going too fast. Sorry, Drew.

The girl looked at the steaming mug of coffee, eyebrows raised. "Uh... okay." She looked down at the dark liquid, before leaning down to sniff at it. "Hm." She lifted the mug in shaking hands, and took a sip. A look of disgust passed her face. "Ack! It's so bitter!" Even if the warmth was nice, the flavor... "Ugh, this is coffee? Why would people pay for this?" Setting the mug down, she looked between them. While she'd heard what they had said, she was still having trouble believing it. Her weary eyes narrowed slightly, into a look of distrust, but it wasn't quite as strong as it had been previously. "I don't get it. People ignore me all the time, like I don't even exist. Why're you two different?"

Orbit couldn't help the faintest smile. Gabe understood, or at least had sense enough to know that they weren't going to have a deep conversation while out in the field. She was grateful that he didn't press her. Before getting onto her bike, she opened the hatch in the seat, removing a second helmet, one that was black with an orange streak. Handing it over to Hellfire, she got on, and revved the vehicle, calmly waiting for him to join her. Once they were both set, she took off, heading back to base.

The blushing counter girl keyed that order in, and beamed a mega-watt smile at the Professor. "Yes, sir!" She twisted a lock of hair around her finger in an obvious gesture of flirtation, but the Professor's attention was already diverted. He was sitting.

The girl, once settled in a chair, did her best not to lean on the table and go to sleep. Luna had parked underneath her chair, as if to keep watch, and Blaze had placed his little self in her lap. The little yellow fox heatbutted the girl ever so gently in the ribs, making a short barking noise. "Nngh." The girl blinked wearily, and looked at the two males who were desperately trying to care for her. There was clear confusion in her eyes. "Wh... why... why are you guys... helping?"

The counter girl set a mug of coffee with an extra shot of expresso in front of the professor, along with a small bowl of various types of sugar packets. A little jar full of real cream followed. She then departed to wait for the sandwiches.

Orbit tried to stop the violent shivering wracking her body, but she couldn't get it under control. Even after Hellfire's hand on her shoulder cut through the cold, it was a struggle to respond without her voice shaking. "I'm fine." A bold-faced lie. There was a sheen of sweat on her forehead that had nothing to do with the effort of battle that had just ended. "Just..." She clutched at her chest, as if struggling for breath. Her mind was fighting a silent war. On one hand, there was a part of her that was fighting to keep them alive, one that had reacted to the biting cold the way it always did. That was the reason for the shivering, for the pain. The other part of her was trying to save face, especially in front of Hellfire. For a fraction of a second, she leaned toward him, as if seeking warmth. Then she fought back the worst of it, straightening up. "I'm fine." But she couldn't look him in the eyes as she started to step for her bike. "You want that ride?"

Also there is no way that Fate or anyone could see her sticking Icicle with a needle since she was doing it with the hand she picked him up with. Not unless he has x-ray vision.

You may want to make that sort of detail clear in your posts. Just a simple thrown in 'hidden from everyone else' line or something like it, to prevent confusion, and other people having to fill in gaps that may be left open.

Orbit snickered, as he started to fly before she could respond. "You can ride with me, you're just not allowed to drive!" She called out over the sound of growing sirens. "The bike's waiting. Come if you want to." She nodded to the others, before heading for her bike. Now that adrenaline was wearing away, she felt it. Cold. Deep in her chest and stomach. Her footsteps stalled, and she had to lean against the building that she'd left her bike near to steady herself. Her jaw was clenched against the pain, even though she knew it wasn't real. She wasn't being frozen from the inside. She was just a coward...

Are we the only ones left playing this?

Jinny watched carefully as the woman handled the knife easily. Then she stood in front of her as asked, taking the knife in her small hand. It had a totally different weight than a screwdriver, despite being about the same size, and it felt awkward in her grip. "Um... so what do I do now?"

Orbit blinked several times, looking down at voices below her. Then she peeked up at Icicle, who... really wasn't moving anymore. "...oh boy." Talk about overkill- there wasn't going to be much left for the police to take to jail if this kept up. "Hey, Patriot, hold off... I think he's done." Or at least, she hoped he was done. Gotham had taught her that some criminals, despite their stupidity, were intelligent enough to have the instinct of survival. If given the chance, they would stop what they were doing when things got bad. Batman had even told her that one time, some low-level crooks had disarmed simply because he told them to. Didn't even have to throw a punch.

She took two steps forward into the open air, and let gravity take her. A few feet from the ground, her powers slowed her descent, and she hit the ground in a light jog, toward Frostburn. She looked him up and down, before nodding once in a brief gesture of respect. "I think a few of us have missed the lesson on restraint... He was attacking up 'til Patriot sent him into that building." But he hadn't moved since. "Do we stick around and wait for the cleanup?" In Gotham, once the criminals were done with, she and Hellfire didn't wait around for congratulations. Then again, they were technically operating outside the law.
