@im-a-waking-hell for that plotty plot.
He turned left, he turned right. Still the feeling that someone was watching could not be shaked and Roy did was he always did when he thought he had a tail...ran off to shake off whom he thought was yet another HIVE goon and they didn't call him speedy for nothing, he was fast and usually pretty good at shaking off pursuers, somewhere out there was a space he could turn to his advantage.
"I got a tail, repositioning" Roy pressed his coms back to the team.
Do you need back up? Garth responded. I told you to mask up but do you listen, no.
"Pff, it's Poughkeepsie. What am I gonna get attacked by a middle class bored banker? Pff. And I was perfectly happy taking an evening nap until you bothered me with your whining"
You're our only reccon. Do you need backup.
"Nah..." with a running start he jumped from his vantage point on the roof to the adjecent roof, slid down the fire escape ran across the street just as a woman carrying groceries opened the main door of the highrise and 20 flights of stairs was nothing.
"Pinging my loc-" ation.
"Oh my fucking God.." Just as he drew an arrow he saw who it was, this Adonis of a man that was plastered on every wall in the city lowering it.
What? What's happening, do I need to send backup.
"Shut up shut up.Shut the fuck up." Roy was not going to let Garth of all people ruin this for him as he not only frantically pressed his in ear com to silence it he threw it off the freaking roof.
"I love your band." Some people really lacked that critical alarm bell to question in the moment how did you get up here, why are you up here.
No, that kind of thinking is for people that lacked the need for a thrill.
"Would you mind signing my chest?I'd get it tattooed and everything. Is that lame? It's lame isn't it. Sorry, you probably get that all the time. That's why you're on the roof right? Getting some air away from everyone?..I'll just...like go" Suddenly he felt very self concious about gushing.
You're so fucking embarassing he thought chastising himself internally. It's fine, he'd be fine just breathe and walk away and pretend this never happened. It'd be fine. Totally normal thing, a 20 year old with a bow an arrow, just another day in Poughkeepsie.
