Red Robin:

There's a new vigilante running a nighttime patrol of the city. He's caped, decked out in red and green light armor He doesn't seem to have special abilities because he uses gear to swing between vantage points and rooftops. He does, however, appear to be highly trained and adept at disappearing into the shadows despite his uniform's coloring, which makes it difficult to watch him beyond a stray glance if you're not superhuman or equally trained.

If you're quick and careful you might catch him on a computer built into the armor of his forearm, sitting on the ledge of a rooftop. Riverview, even taking the monsters into account, is much more peaceful than his home. The police aren't corrupt, they do their jobs and it leaves a significantly lesser need for vigilantism. Red Robin knows this is the ideal. The whole goal of their mission is to make themselves unnecessary. He just didn't bank on how boring it might end up.

University:

There's a new student around campus who may be inciting some whispers. He's got over a full course load at six classes, but he isn't showing any of the usual symptoms of overworked stress over achieving students have been known to. He's a freshman with a load of programming and engineering courses at as high of a level as he could get into without pre-requisite. Tim had grabbed as many as he could, to keep busy, but also because he wanted to learn as much as he could about this world's technologies and how to better work with them with his job. If he was working for the guard, he didn't want lives to depend on work he didn't understand.

He can be found coming out of a class or studying in the library, even going through the stacks or computer accessible files for more about the city and the moon itself. If you've met Tim before and you see him now, there's a marked change. He's still tired, and worn, but he's not the bland polite teenager he usual is in public. He looks enthused, and possibly even happy.

Open/Wild Card/TDM Prompts:

I'm sorry I couldn't help myself :>

More than one new vigilante, from the looks of things. And Red must be the "in" color for vigilantism, because this one is also decked out in a red bodysuit - with black spots. It isn't so much a need to patrol the city, but swinging around via yoyo, and finding occasional shortcuts along the rooftops does wonders to clear her head. Red Robin may see her swinging past - she doesn't notice him though, since he's more experience in the stealth department. She's never had need to work from the shadows.

No apologies~ I've been waiting for this

Red Robin tails the strange cat-suited girl several blocks, watching her movements and trying to assess if she had any meta abilities or particular goals in her destination. He was unable to form any conclusions except for believing she might be slightly enhanced just from the way she went about without armor and with only a yo-yo as transportation. He bet it doubled as her form of defense as well.

He bides his time and then eventually lightly lands on a building just overlooking her own touch down spot. "Good evening." He says politely. There was no need to assume there was reason to start a fight. This wasn't Gotham and he wasn't chasing her out of Bat territory.

Aww yeahh :D

[de_evilise]

Her guard was completely open - if this were a different kind of situation someone would have easily been able to get the drop on her. Heck, if Red Robin had wanted to he would could have easily done so -- probably. She's surprised at first, but glances up to where he's landed. Smiling pleasantly, she lifted a hand in greeting, "Good evening! Looks like I wasn't the only one with the same idea tonight, huh?" This was the first time she went this particular way on her patrol route - maybe this was his usual area?

[stalkingandplotting]

The unknown is cheerful, greets him without any suspicion, and Red Robin wonders if he might get hives from how chipper she is. He's so glad she's not in Gotham. If a villain didn't get to her first Batman would chew her up and spit her out.

"Definitely not. There's a handful of us around, I think."

[de_evilise]

He probably would, the grumpy man. Gosh, it's like being cheerful is a crime! She winds her yo-yo and tucks it into the pouch at her side, before stepping forward and jumping up to join him, though at a polite arm's length distance.

"That's good to know. If something big goes down, we can all coordinate and work together to keep people safe." Assumey much? Well she doesn't see any reason why people wouldn't want to work together. She offers a hand to shake, "I'm Ladybug."

In Gotham, being cheerful means you're high on laughing gas, you're Harley Quinn, or you're a tourist that is likely to experience something traumatic. He watches where she stows her yo-yo making a note if he ever needs to disarm her.

"Yeah, I'm working up a panic button of sorts to give out if you'll carry one to alert others." He shakes her hand with his own, heavy in its gauntlet. "Red Robin."

[de_evilise]

Such a gloomy place, that Gotham. "That's a great idea, I'll definitely carry one, of course." She grins at the handshake, resting her hand on her hip again.

"You said there were other ...e.r.. crime fighters here right? You haven't come across a blonde guy in a black catsuit that goes by the name of Cat Noir, have you? ... It's a long shot, since I'm sure he'd be looking for me first thing, but he's my partner.
