@VISIONARYRAGE + floated upward together. She'd use a bit of her own powers to help, but she mostly clung to the Red Lantern.
"Haven't had one in a while, but now that you mention it? I'd kill for one right now."
@VISIONARYRAGE "Something I was taught and can't shake away. Not yet, anyway."
Karen met Blake's eyes and found herself smiling quite a bit. What made this better was the genuine tone of voice. It wasn't some script; Blake was speaking honestly.
"Says you," is all she muttered as they +
@VISIONARYRAGE "Hope not. Keeping these lives separated is tough enough already."
Karen's brows raised and she'd soon wrap her arms gently around Blake at the invitation.
"Lead the way. I don't eat out much in Gotham, so this'll be somethin' new for me regardless."
@VISIONARYRAGE Power Girl could only chuckle at Blake's embarrassment. She reached out snd took that ringed hand into her own, giving a firm shake.
"Karen Starr. I trust you'll keep that to yourself, Blake?"
She then lifted her purse in her other hand and slung it over her shoulder. +
@VISIONARYRAGE + The blonde twirled to show it off in full before crossing her arms.
"Then again, I've been waiting to wear this again. It's one of my favorite fits..."
@VISIONARYRAGE "Green means good, red means evil. It's how a lot of people's brains are wired."
Karen reached up to fix her hair a bit, since it had gotten ruffled from how quick she moved to change.
"Hm? ...Well, thank you. You're sure I'm not overdoing it for an impromptu dinner date?" +
@VISIONARYRAGE + greed. Too much fear... you get the idea.
[The curtains open and our floats Karen in her new outfit, looking down to ensure no one was looking up, which was rare anyway.]
Alright. I think I'm ready... Not too flashy or anything, is it?
@VISIONARYRAGE That's just because they assume red is evil of some sorts. But there's always a yin to every yang and so on, right?
[She'd slip in through the window and draw the curtains closed so she could change...]
The only thing to fear is a misuse of said power. Too much rage. Too much +
@VISIONARYRAGE Nothing wrong with a little trouble. That's what makes this all... a bit more fun. No?
[She starts to float toward home, still chatting it up of course.]
As far as I'm concerned, we need all the emotions for there to be any sorta balance, right? So I don't mind some red!
+ So what did she have to lose?
"You can call on me anytime, Kate."
Karen swears, nodding as she'd take the flask and drink a bit. Since the sun wasn't fully out, it had a slightly better effect on her, but nothing as good as it should feel.
She sighed and handed it back.
Karen was in the same boat. She could really only name two people and, even then, she's low on both of their priority lists...
Karen stared at the flask for a long moment, soaking in Kate's words. She was a bit more flexible morally than the rest of the Super Family... +
β’ this, if you take this flask, you're going to be a part of my fucked up life. Karen, I am a certified cunt. I'm not a good person."
Then again, she wasn't even a person anymore.
"You drink, that tells me you want to be a part of my life, and vice versa. So, gonna accept?"
+ the good stuff from you."
Karen perked up at the question and rested her right hand on her hip.
"Just passing by overhead. I thought... maybe I could come check on you. I still don't have many... people I can rely on here, so I like to lend a hand or an ear whenever I can."
"Technically, all I have to do is relax a little TOO much and I hear every little thing."
Karen sighed at the display, watching the cigarette fly. She used her heat vision to destroy it before it hit the ground/roof.
"I'd ask for a swig, but I doubt you'd appreciate me takin' +
β’ save people. I am here to ensure those that fuck around find out real fucking quick."
Studying Karen, she would toss the cigarette away with a flick of her fingers.
"Why are you here?"
