Dance. Dance. Dance. Just dance.
Maria hadn't planned on keeping her dancing job at The Diamond Room but it had proved to pay well in more than just one way. Sure the cash was great, but the information she was getting out of Tony "The Nose" Bucco and the Gambino crime family was worth more than the cash. The Huntress used the information to take as many of those bastards and their associates off the streets as possible. There was also the cash and jewels she stole from them as well. That money helped pay for her equipment and the rest was donated to the various charities around Gotham.

She heard Candy Star introduced and she headed for the stage.

	"A Bruce is a Bruce, no matter the universe." A staff member delivered the food and Maria thanked him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He quiets as food is delivered, then digs into his fries while they go back to talking. "I suspect you're probably right. Well, most, anyway. Owlman... is a Bruce, but not like the others I've heard of." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"There's a Bruce out there as Owlman? Seriously?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ah, so you guys didn't have a Counter-Earth. Yeah, there's evil doubles of most of the JLA, and a lot of others. We haven't heard from them in a while, but still. Their Bruce is Owlman." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's like...brain breaky." She shook her head. She couldn't picture it. "Weird." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm used to it just kind of being the way of things. We've had more crosses with counter-Earth than just about any other dimension." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"As far as I know we didn't have much other dimension/other world contact. Which I guess we were kind of lucky that way." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes and no. I mean, sometimes that'd be good, no crime society and such. But there's some good ones out there too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hmm, there's a few I could show you, if the Flashes let me use a treadmill. Not a lot. We usually don't try and go visiting too much, but there's a few we're on reasonable terms with." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No thanks," she said. "I'm quite content to stay here for as long as I'm here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Probably for the best. Besides, you're bound to run into some kind of extradimensional trouble sooner or later. These things happen here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I don't run into trouble," she said. "It finds me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Uh huh. You're trouble on two legs." Nice legs, but still. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I am not," she protested, but couldn't keep a straight face. She giggled. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No, no, pretty sure you are. But at least you're the entertaining kind of trouble." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ok, maybe a little. I fear if you and Alina ever conspire though. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Maria grinned. "Maybe we will. Just to keep you on your toes." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He laughs. "I shouldn't have said anything." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2011-09-03 01:25 am UTC (link)
	"Too late now," Maria smirked. "Alina and I will have a nice long chat about you and what to do with you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He sighs, then goes up to the counter and borrows a pen, and writes down a number. "Since I'm doomed either way, I'll save you the detective work. Besides, better she hear you're a friend of mine, since she still keeps a secret identity." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
