[It's a little sad, maybe, that despite how well she hides it, the question throws her more than it really should. She's been back to working alone for the better part of a year, now, and the criminals out there who've already made names for themselves...they don't extend invitations to people they see as nothing more than upstart little girls. She's used to fighting for every inch of reputation she garners and never giving way when someone tries to take it from her.

She is not, in contrast, used to people being generally...nice.

Someday, she thinks, someone will see her and they'll instantly know who she is, why she's there. She's going to pursue her goals until her reputation extends across the entire world.

Though for the moment, it'd help if she knew where she was. Maybe this guy can help with that.]


Up there?

[She gives his rappel line an interested look, then shifts out and swivels until she can point her own right wrist at the top of the tower.

An instant later, her own powered grapple fires, connects, takes hold with an audible clink — and that's her cue to flash him a smug look.]
