Ask me five questions, and I'll answer them. ...With the ground rule that I'm not revealing my real identity even if you ask. If you're already in the know, that's different.
1) Oh, that's got to be Christmas, when I was nine. I got this huge dollhouse, with a little working elevator, some working lights, and about a dozen other extras. Came in nine million pieces. Dad never could actually figure out how to put it all together. The world's greatest detective stumped by a kid's toy.
2)Space thing, partially. The bow collapses so it can fit into a boot holster, and I can carry a lot more darts--regular and anesthesia-tipped--than I can batarangs. Not that I don't have some of those too, though.
3) Oh God... Kara would kill me if she found out I said this, but yes, totally true. Taken out more than one thug because he was too distracted to fight properly.
4) Trying to figure out who killed Mister Terrific. Locked room mystery on the League's satillite, supposedly nobody there but the two teams... Ugh. Total mess. I didn't even make it to the end of it. Got taken out by an exploding computer. Turned out to be an old enemy of his, the Spirit King, possessing Jay Garrick.
5) Downtime? What's that? I'm kidding.
I spend a lot of time hanging out with Kara, actually. Shopping, movies, that kind of thing. And there's Sylvester too. The three of us kind of stick together, being the young guns of the team. Little bit of dating too, of course. Harry Sims, the Gotham DA... Great guy, though I haven't exactly told him about my double life.
2. Have you ever considered a compressed air launcher?
3. On behalf of my gender, I'm ashamed. *smirks*
4. You know, somehow, I think I've actually heard of that one. Plus, it's one of the earliest comics my mun can remember reading, now that you've reminded him.
5. Nothing better than friends, especially ones who get "the business". And I'm a fan of dating, too.
2) Hmmm. That's not a bad idea, actually. I'll have to look into it.
3) Again, if Kara ever finds out, I am so dead, but don't be. It's at least partially on purpose. I studied a lot of the other female crime fighters who came before me. Batwoman. Liberty Belle. A bunch of others. And, of course, Phantom Lady.
4) Huh. The more things change, the more they stay the same, eh?
1. *wipes his eyes* Sorry. It just would never happen here.
3. Hmmm. Seems there are more similar traditions between us. You should tell your Kara, though that we now have a fellow named Power Boy, complete with an opening in his top. Not a nice guy, but still.
3) Power... Boy? Good Lord. I can't wait to see the look on her face. Love her like a sister, but sometimes, I swear, it's just so easy to get a rise out of her.
2) Because there was a Batwoman and a Bat-Girl before me and I didn't feel right taking someone else's name. Turned out I did anyway, but the other Huntress was a criminal.
3) Pass. I'd be doing what I do in my real identity.
4) Guy named Silky Cernak. Old henchmen of my mother's from when she was Catwoman. He tried blackmailing her and that led to her death...
5) Let's see... two Nightwings, one girl one, one with white hair, two with long pants, plus the one from Earth-One and the one from my Earth... So eight, I guess. No, wait... there was a blond guy one too. Nine then.
Look, between my trust fund and my inheritance, I've got more money than any one person's got a right to anyway. Ought to do something to make you guys happy.
