Midtown - Under Gotham Gardens

The nights were lonely and quiet. There was no one really to talk to. Her strange, and arguably stronger, connection to plants led her to talking with them even though they could not respond back with any real intelligent thought. Since reviving Ivy had been busy trying to recover herself. Physically she was perfectly fine, younger even. But there was still a lot of her past missing. So much she didn't know. And apparently in her absence one of her biggest foes had passed away. This potentially left a huge opening for her. However it seemed that others that were already better prepared had made their move.

Somehow hearing about Batman's passing left yet another hole in her heart. The feeling was difficult to explain, like a lingering memory that she couldn't get a grasp of. There had been a lot of that lately. So far she'd had little contact with anyone. Her initial attempt was thrown back in her face as she learned that people hated her. She was almost captured once before going into hiding.

The fighting of villains didn't really concern the woman much. While most of the lab she'd woken up in was destroyed she had recovered some of her research. There was quite a bit she no longer understood but enough of it outlined the chemicals she needed to better grow and mutate her plants. Unfortunately that meant getting her hands dirty to steal what she needed. S.T.A.R. Labs was in the same district and looked to be the best place for her to hit. Exactly what she would find was anyone's guess.



Midtown - S.T.A.R. Labs

Making use of the nearby plant life the young woman could already tell that the security was pretty tight. The place surely had been targeted before given its credentials. But everything has its weaknesses. In this case it was time. Over the last several days Ivy had been using the roots of plants to spread into the tiny cracks in the foundation and breaking it up to make it easier to breach. Though that was plan B, because why reveal your best option right waya? Going through the front door sounded a lot easier anyway. This way she could hopefully get in, grab what she wanted, and get back out before anyone showed up. And if that failed she had a back door.

Whilst the Cluemaster and Riddler provided sufficient distraction vines and a large pod rose up from the ground in front of the lab. Rushing forward they punched through and crushed the doors in their path. A guard ran to break in with his gun drawn. The bullets didn't phase the vine much other than to agitate it. Grabbed and swept off his feet the man was tossed outside several yards away like a toy. Several others met a similar fate or were pinned to a wall and had overgrowth restrict their movement. The immediate threat neutralized the pod opened up and Ivy stepped out. She strolled by the guards who could only watch helplessly. Luckily she seemed to have no interest in harming them.

Now began the part that would take the most time, actually finding what she wanted. Ivy did not know the layout and had to search to find some of what she wanted. Wasting precious time breaking open doors and lockers she started grabbing everything she could get her hands on when it looked like she was on the right track. Rumor was that new heroes were popping up and she really didn't want to deal with that. This far in she didn't have as much use of the vines reaching in from outside.
@The Kid Lantern You should put the map on the OP so we can find it again easily.
Ariel - Crocus City Market

That made a lot of sense when James explained it. He didn't seem quite as surprised as she had expected. Then again James never struck her as someone super expressive. There were definitely people much more animated. Nolan gave a small lecture and Ariel playfully smacker him on the arm. "Leave him alone. You didn't start out like you are now either you know." She grinned and pulled him back.

James and Cody seemed like they were occupied. She didn't want to run but also didn't want to interrupt any more than she already had. Plus there was only so much time left in the day. "We should probably get going. It was good to see you again. Hope you find the right set of armor. James' has this though, he'll point you in the right direction." With no way not to exit awkwardly she just dragged Nolan on out so they could continue.
Two openings? Well one is not an option for Ivy, not sure crime fighting fits her at the moment either. Hm...

Thanks for the warning.


Yeah. May have to put Ariel on autopilot for a while or otherwise occupy her to explain the absence.
Just a heads up, I will probably be out most of the weekend. I may not be on next week either. Got some stuff going on and need a break as well.

Not the best time to be scarce with the thing starting up but my character is more on the loner side at the moment so things should be able to progress without me.

Ariel - Crocus Market District

"Oh, that makes sense. Not sure if armor would help me or not. My magic is kind of all over the place though." She waved her hands around a bit to relay how crazy it was. Cody asked her name, or more accurately for confirmation of her name. Nodding she smiled. "That's me, Ariel Gratas. Thanks for the help when I was getting attacked. I still don't know what got into Marlene to make her so... crazy." There were probably better ways to put that but it was what came to her mind first.

James made an interesting observation though and she glanced back at Nolan. Was it that obvious? Sure Nolan wasn't dying standing next to her but they hadn't really done anything that would indicate more. Or maybe Ariel was just missing it, she was not always the most observant. She turned back to her guild mates. "Um, yeah we are actually... How'd you guess?" She actually was a tad puzzled.
@The Kid Lantern Villains tend to be more lone wolf and thus harder to rally behind. There are probably a lot of villains fighting amongst each other for control of the crime ring in Gotham. Not used to making any big bads.

My thought with Ivy (dropped the Poison on purpose) was take someone that was traditionally a villain (though one could argue she walks the line in canon as well) and take her back to a point where she could possibly change depending on what happens to her. Her history is against her though so there is quite a bit to overcome for something like that.

I can do some of the canon villains if need be.
