Kings Row.
Caroline squared on the building corner, rain hammering down, this was her city... Her watch.... Oh gods this was so boring! How the fuck did Batman do this?
She shivers slightly, it wasn't a cold rain, but she was soaking when she heard someone approach. "What do you want?" She said in her gruffest voice.
Gir stepped up, in full costume and chuckles. "Dad sent me to look for you, it is a horrid night for patrol."
Caroline grumped. "Crime doesn't sleep."
Gir smirked. "But crime also does not want to catch a cold.... Come on, let's go get Up up and away burgers."
Caroline would refuse, but her gut made an audible growl. "Fine." She muttered embarrassed.
Up up and away burgers.
The two stepped in, dripping water everywhere. "Sorry." Gir said. "Wrought night."
The cashier just sighed. "Jerry, mop." He said as another teen came out and started cleaning up after the heroes as Gir and Caroline approached the counter, Gir pulling off her helmet. "I'll pay."
Caroline gasped. "Your secret identity!"
Gir looks over her shoulder. "It's okay Car- er, Knight Saber, I have a public ID, like dad and Neph, any way." She turns back to the clerk. "Um, two up burger meals, one large with Dr Pepper as the drinks?"
The clerk muttered out the payment and went to work the grill as Gir swiped her card, waiting for their food. Eventually they got it, taking their tray to a booth and sitting down.
Gir smiled and took a fry, munching happily. "You know, we haven't really just sat and talked, the two of us, wanna?"
Caroline sipped her soda. "Talk about what?"
"Well, if we keep quite, we can talk about our lives, I hear you have an admirer."
Caroline blushed. "I don't know what you see talking about."
"Well Alica told me a certain head of track and field joined your self defence classes, a Jessica Holt?"
"What? How she see that? She to busy making goo goo eyes at Seiji!"
Gir waves a hand. "Hush hush... Want to talk about her?"
Caroline burried her head in her hands. "Jessica is indeed the head of track and field and a goth and amazing and cute and she would want nothing to do with a comic nerd like me."
Gir bit her burger. "So she joined your extra curricular class out of the blue for no reason?"
Caroline chewed her lip. "Maybe?"
Gir laughed. "And Neph says I'm bad at social cues."

Neph: I wanna fight!
