Bendy time/Positive reinforcement
A certain fox has the night off. This meant she needed to do something fun. What better than to enjoy a night out under one of her aliases while having fun? A really fancy dress that would make a grown man whimper because it looked damn good on her, with darker hair too. She made sure that it made her look dramatically different to fit the alias just right.

It helped the Sophia, her persona tonight, was known in the right circles as a lover of the arts. It made sense that she was at a very high end art show at one of Gotham's museums.

No one questioned her presence and she was getting away with her natural eye color tonight. She was also having fun listening to a prominent artist talk about one of the more odd looking sculptures on display tonight. She was going to be really happy once she got home.

	"Should I be worried about you being...properly inspired at dinner?" He'll tease back just fine. It was half the fun after all. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No. We'll be in public still," she deadpans in a dry tone. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She gets a light laugh, he's in a good mood tonight. "Shame. Did you want to go for dinner now?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'd be up for that," she admits. She's feeling hungry now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Then what are we waiting for?" He takes her hand in his and starts making their way out of the art gallery. As much as he loves these things, he's had his chance to look around and bumping into her made this better, he wanted to extend that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She is amused by how excitable he is. At least she has a car she very rarely uses. It's a little fancy and sometimes stands out but for this alias it's just fine. "Nothing, really," she says smoothly. "I'll drive." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

For a second he pauses at the car, not long enough to be noticeable, considering if he should get into a vehicle with a known mob thief. But he shakes it off, he trusts her not to put him in a position like that. She hadn't turned him over when he'd be injured, there was no reason not to trust her to do the same now.

"It is your car," he shrugs. Although if it came down to it, he figured he was the better stunt driver. But it's unlikely that'll come up tonight.

	She just chuckles softly. "Thank you. I assure you, I'm a good driver," she teases him as she unlocks the car so they can get in. It's clean and looks very well maintained. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well if you're not I can always take over in an emergency. I'm better on the bike I will admit though." He gets into the passenger's seat and waits for her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I don't think you'll need to do that," she says dropping her accent in the safety of the car as she starts her car. Soon they are on their way. Shortly Sarah notices something.... odd. "Robin. Don't be obvious but... are we being followed?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He glances casually at the mirrors once more. He'd noticed the car following them but hadn't been sure. "Possibly. Next red light, drop something just before it turns green and pretend to look for it, hold everyone up. Let's see if they honk." It's not too crowded on the streets so the car in question will be the only one behind them. He figures they won't honk no matter how much time Sarah takes up, just to not draw attention to themselves. People remembered who honked at them.

	She smirks at him lightly. The next red light she waits. She pretends to be fixing her hair as they wait. Then oops. Something happens as she gropes around to get it even as the light turns green and people get annoyed. All the cars save one pull around her and go on ahead. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-03-26 02:10 am UTC (link)
	There's no honk and a very brief glance at the rearview mirror shows that the driver doesn't even look annoyed. To keep up the charade he bends down and pretends to help her find whatever it was. "Two men, look reasonably well trained and possibly armed. I'll actually bet on them being armed. You don't do something like this without it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Right. Wonder who they're after? The Sophia alias would hold up to almost all curious looks," she says out loud thoughtfully. This has her worried. She thought she was safe going out tonight. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's Sophia or you. It's unlikely to be me but either way, keep driving." He knows these guys will want to make a move soon. When that happens he'll take over the wheel from her whether she wanted to or not. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	outfoxing 2012-03-26 02:26 am UTC (link)
	"Right." She tries to look casual as she sits back up. She adjusts her hair and keeps on driving. Right now she is glad she has such a sporty little car. Good for making escapes if she has to. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He leans against his door, looking bored from their followers' position, and keeps track of the people in the other car and their movements. After a few blocks and some turns they were still on their tail and looking like they were going to start their plan soon. "Don't react but it looks like they'll make their move soon."

	outfoxing 2012-03-26 02:38 am UTC (link)
	"Of course they are," she mutters bitterly. She had been looking forward to having fun. She does though make sure to change their route just enough to make it look like she wasn't sure where she was going. For the sake of the people following them. And now the car behind them speeds up and Sarah can see them getting ready to make a move. Oh come on. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He looks back quickly and sees both the men pull out guns. "Step on it now!" Damnit he didn't have his uniform, but that's fine. He wouldn't want Sarah or an alias of hers connected to Robin. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	outfoxing 2012-03-26 02:43 am UTC (link)
	And she does! Her car has pep so they speed up pretty fast. "Should have taken my shoe off," she grouses. Sometimes high heels get in the way of car chases. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cantkeepmeout 2012-03-26 02:47 am UTC (link)
	Now he doesn't need to be subtle about looking behind them. The car is right on their heels. One of the men opens the window and pulls out his gun to take a shot. "Give me the wheel and get down!" He grabs the wheel and violently turns so the tires protest but the first shots miss them. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	outfoxing 2012-03-26 02:51 am UTC (link)
	She gets down. Her foot presses down a little harder on the gas. She hadn't meant to do that but it was a nervous reaction. She really hopes they don't get shot. Robin just got better for crying out loud. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He glares at the gunmen and decides this isn't going to work. "Switch seats and keep your head down," he hisses. If they wanted a car chase then fine. These idiots would get a real car chase. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	outfoxing 2012-03-26 02:57 am UTC (link)
	This is complicated. The car barely has a back seat. It's almost too small for that. But as a thief she can get back there With enough time for Thomas to jump into her former seat. He is fast after all. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He slides in from the passenger's seat into the driver's just as she gets out. They've timed this well and the car stays in control during it.

Now pedal to the metal. He floors it and the tires screech as they zoom forward, weaving through traffic at break-neck speeds. The way the car swerves so close to others might have someone panic, but Thomas has done this before. Granted, as nice as this car was it was no Batmobile but it'd do just fine.
