Heart Game: Talon
Was it this late when you stepped into the Game Tower...? Now the sky above is dotted with a few scarce stars, occasionally obscured by some light cloud cover drifting by. Most of the night sky has been washed out by the bright lights of the city which, by the way, is spread out far below the rooftop that characters find themselves on. There's a faint buzz on their phones. When checked, the screen shows a Game Notice:
Win Condition:
1. Locate the True Heart
Or
2. Leave a Lasting Mark
The skyscraper towers high above the streets, easily dwarfing any other building in sight. The city is some dozens of stories below, and the sound of the wind rushing by is louder than anything that can be heard from the streets. Occasionally the wail of a siren pierces the distance, but it's easier to spot the lights of an ambulance or police car zipping through the roads than it is to hear them. If you look closely enough, and for long enough, you might notice figures in the distance leaping between buildings, sometimes in pursuit of a siren or with an emergency vehicle trailing in the distance behind them.
The roof itself is expansive—the building must take up the better part of a city block, judging by the space available up here. A helipad (sans any helicopter) takes up the entirety of one side of the roof, complete with what looks like a freight elevator for moving things from the roof further into the building. The elevator itself has a keypad lock on it, but a staircase entrance beside it has no obvious lock in place.
The rest of the rooftop is empty save for a small, hooded figure perched atop one of the parapets along the edge of the roof, feet dangling over open air.
[ OOC NOTES:
1. Powers are on. THIS INCLUDES CANON POWER SETS.
2. Characters may keep any equipment they had on them when entering the heart, but there is a risk it will be taken away during the run. However all equipment taken will be returned when you exit the heart.
3. Significant changes/damage to the heart will reset each time someone new enters an area for the first time. For example, if Bob kills the sentry at the entrance of the heart, the sentry will respawn for Sally when she arrives. This way everyone can experience the different areas.
4. CAVEAT TO THE ABOVE: exceptions made for anyone specifically going through the heart with a partner(s), or anyone who requests to react to damage that's been done. The goal here is to allow everyone to have fun in the heart at the end of the day. ♥ ]

Re: City Streets
Forget it.
[he's a big boy, Jason is just gonna let him do what he wants, instead he fixes in on heart hood.]
Tell me you have other uses besides being Joker fodder.
Because I am fresh out of fucks to give.
Re: City Streets
And you idiots, apparently.
Re: City Streets
My apologies.
Answer the fucking question.
Re: City Streets
What kind of use are you asking about? What is it you wanna do?
Re: City Streets
I can't kill the fucking Joker because of course I can't. I've got no interest in fucking around or "fixing" shit.
I want out.
And you should have information, unless Damian's decided to think of me as even less than useless.
[he means every word he says.]
Re: City Streets
You think I can get you out? Dames is the only one who can get anyone you, dumbfuck. This whole place is his.
You got two options: find him, or take a dive. And you and I both know that second one's not a fucking option. Especially not in here.
Re: City Streets
Does he think I don't know how to read between the lines?
[he pinches the bridge of his nose, exasperated.]
What. Are. Your. Leads.
And don't fucking say Joker.
Re: City Streets
The Joker.
[ And after a beat ]
And his mother. Kid took some new memories, and then all you fucking helper bees showed up out of fucking nowhere, and the security hub lost track of him. If he's anywhere, he's dealing with that shit.
Re: City Streets
[he at least seems somewhat amused by it, even if he's annoyed by how useless this version of himself is.]
Which direction to Talia?
Re: City Streets
She's all over the forest outpost. You can get to the forest through the park. Follow the path to get to the outpost.
Re: City Streets
[just gonna drag it out, the way Damian does.]
Better get a new mask, would hate to see you reduced to just "shitty older brother."
[and then he turns, time to head to the park and then to the outpost.]
Re: City Streets
and shouts after him as he goes ]
If I am, it's 'cause you're doing a shitty job!
[ The outpost is here ]
