She felt the gun press into her back. She couldn't help but sigh. She was a fool to believe that she could get through a single day in Gotham without someone happening.
"Give me all your money!" The man yelled from behind her.
"A mugging... again, " she muttered annoyed, this was the 7th one this week.
"Are you fucking stupid! Money now!" The man yelled, getting impatient.
He hadn't hit her yet, better manners than the last mugger. She reached into her purse for her money. Her life wasn't worth protecting the small amount of chash she carried. Her brother could be upset all he wanted over replacing the debit cards.
Before she could hand it over, she heard fighting. By the time she turned around, she saw a man dressed like a bat standing over the would-be mugger. He left just as quickly as he came, leaving her surprised.
"That's new... when did Gotham get a... Batman.. yea, that name fits, " she muttered to herself, a habit she picked up from being alone so often.
Not many friends to be made from always getting into trouble with this luck of hers. Harvey would always joke it was because she was a Wayne, but that didn't make sense for her brother Bruce. He always seemed to have the good luck.
"Get it together, Hope, get home before something else happens," she muttered to herself, continuing on towards her car.

Black or White
Dan is hungry, cold and fascinated with the girl that broke into his apartment on a Thursday night. Maybe it doesn't correlate but he becomes a criminal. --------------------------------------------------- His mouth hung open, none of his high school classes had included a 'How to Confront a Possible Intruder Lurking in Your Shadows' course. He let the world fall to the forefront of his consciousness in those seconds; the fading sirens included. The cheese dust on his tongue sat sour, he could not be sure that this intruder was not related to their loud blaring earlier in the night. He swallowed the uncertainty. The intruder spoke first and they were not even polite about it. "Do you plan on finishing those chips or can I get some to go?" The voice had a noticeable soprano lilt to it, still, she sounded rough. Regardless, Dan frowned at her tone. That and the flutter of his heart as it recognized her voice. Dan's little sister had a habit of critiquing him, not always in a constructive way either. One thing she usually mentioned that she envied was his ability to recall details well; in her words, he 'majored on the minor but it only benefitted him'. He had never disputed her but he was not sure if having perfect recollection of the voice of a girl who threatened to drown him two years ago when he had inconvenienced her - he was not sure if that would benefit him. "Whether I finish them or not, if you want some you would have to sit with me, like a respectable guest, and we can share." Maybe it was the decision of a fool - but maybe not. He saw no other option but that of anyone in a situation they were inequipped to navigate; follow his instincts. A terrible idea, really.Complete
