'' I'll begin with a reign of terror, a few murders here and there, murders of great men, murders of little men - just to show I make no distinction. I might even wreck a train or two... just these fingers around a signalman's throat, that's all. ''

The gun is raised, the barrel aimed right between Blake's eyes. There's a long stretch of time, and the gun jerks ever so slightly.

"Bang."

But the trigger isn't pulled.

It seems there's a gun floating in the air...how peculiar.

|| The sad thing is if they really wanted it to be Babsgirl and avoid most of this backlash they had to do one simple thing:

Set the story before she ever became Oracle.

But no. I believe there's an expression about cake and eating it that sums up what they tried to do.

((yeah, the point of the post was calling out the ableist bullshit in the game, I never directly mention Cass once, in fact if Barbara ABSOLUTELY had to be the Batgirl in the game, fine! But I would want her in the game with decent fucking writing.

He's here...

Throws a rock at the reader.

@MarvelousMight -- gathering nuts in may on a cold and frosty morning🎶"

He threw the door open, and started walking out.

"Sweet dreams, Ms Jones."

[Dr. Jack Griffin @Invisible_Mania]

@MarvelousMight -- the desk.

"I'd love to stick around, but I've got other matters to get to."

Then, as he started skipping- yes, actually skipping- towards the door, he started singing a little tune to himself.

"🎶Here we go gathering nuts in may. Nuts in may, nuts in may. Here we go--

[Dr. Jack Griffin @Invisible_Mania]

@MarvelousMight -- a lethal dose."

[Dr. Jack Griffin @Invisible_Mania]

@MarvelousMight -- grabbed a loose rag from somewhere, and used it to wipe down the brim of the glass he'd used, before tossing it mockingly at her.

"I will give you credit where it's due, you've fought off the tranquilizer for far longer than I'd thought, and here I figured it would've been--

[Dr. Jack Griffin @Invisible_Mania]

@MarvelousMight -- tragic accident."

He finished off his scotch, and set the glass back on the desk.

"I could even spike the drink of an unsuspecting private investigator and buy time for the potent tranquilizer to take effect."

[Dr. Jack Griffin @Invisible_Mania]

@MarvelousMight -- strangle passerbiers without consequence. I could rob a bank in broad daylight and nobody would be any the wiser until I'm long gone. I could sabotage a passenger plane right before take-off, and watch it explode across the runway, and the world would be left to mourn a--

[Dr. Jack Griffin @Invisible_Mania]

@MarvelousMight -- constraints put onto it by 'civil society', allowing me to truly grasp what my new form was capable of.

Take those oafs from Chinatown for instance, had I not come here, you likely wouldn't have ever known I was responsible. That, my dear, is but a fraction of what I can do."

[Dr. Jack Griffin @Invisible_Mania]

@MarvelousMight -- scotch, counting down the seconds until he approximated the tranquilizer would take effect.

"But beyond the simple parlor trick of rendering myself- and this body suit I'm wearing- truly invisible, the mixture had the wondrous effect of opening my mind, freeing it of the--

[Dr. Jack Griffin @Invisible_Mania]

@MarvelousMight -- made her way back.

"Perhaps I misjudged you as any other mindless brute in this city. Seems you do have some semblance of civility. My apologies, Ms?"

[Dr. Jack Griffin @Invisible_Mania]

@MarvelousMight -- more than thrice her size when it kicked in. Not that he had any inclination towards her enhanced abilities, he was simply being thorough. If the tranquilizer killed her, well, even better.

He made a point to pour her a second glass in the one she'd already used as she--
