[open] Space is Cold

Who: Leonard and YOU
Where: The Citadel
When: all through the event
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Len does all right in space, mostly by doing wrong
The Story:

1. Space Bar

A bar is a bar is a bar. Leonard doesn't find anything drastically different about this place, except for the aliens and the ice seemingly not melting, which has his attention more than the actual drink. He stands a bit apart from most of what's going on, leaning against the wall by a table and watching no one in particular.

Although, if someone comes in at the right - or wrong - time, they may find him sending cold looks edging on outright glares in the direction of his partner, who's probably having a bit too good a time, at least in Leonard's opinion.

2. Space Museum

What came first, the stealing or the art appreciation? In Leonard's case - having been born into a criminal family - it was the stealing. These days, however? It's genuine appreciating for its own sake too. He looks at the building from the outside first, appreciating the architecture but, of course, also casing the joint. Force of habit or actually leading up to something, it's anyone's guess.

Later he can be found inside, both appreciating the exhibition and inspecting the alarm system and other safety measures, a connoisseur of both art and art theft. He's subtle enough about the latter, but someone in a similar business or otherwise experienced may be able to pick up on it.

Kara's been here a while. Dancing, mostly, though she does take the occasional breather for a drink and a little people-watching. She catches sight of Leonard during one of these breaks. Eyes him discreetly as he glares at Mick. Glances at Mick who seems to be having a good time. Internally shrugs because it's none of her business.

But he's still doing it the next time she decides to get a ridiculously fruity alien drink, so instead of sticking around the bar itself, she walks over to him. She sips at the bright neon cocktail and leans against the wall a little ways down from him.

"You know," she remarks, just loud enough to be heard over the music, "Talking usually works better than passive-aggressive looks and hoping they notice."
crisised: (► heh.)

She expected something of a pissy answer, so the question doesn't offend. Doesn't do anything other than make her grin and give her an opening, actually. "Yeah," she says, "You need to take the stick out." Of his ass, she means.

Kara sucks down the last of her drink and places the glass on the table beside her before offering Leonard an outstretched hand and a head-tilt of her own. "Come dance with me. I could use a partner that won't get handsy, and you could use a little fun. Pretty sure you've had the same drink for the last half hour."

There's a reply about how "handsy" and "so green with jealousy he makes the Grinch jealous" don't really go hand in hand sitting on the tip of her tongue, but Kara bites it back. She rolls her eyes at Leonard instead. Slouches back against the wall and decides to settle in for a bit of conversation before heading back out on the floor.

"It's Kara, not blondie. Kara Zor-El." Though she doesn't mind blondie as much as she minded Mick calling her 'Legs.'

"And I haven't been watching you specifically. Just happened to notice when you caught my eye," she says.

Which is the truth. Spend enough time training with people like Batman and you learn to unconsciously file away things like that for future reference. Not that she's realized that's what she's doing.
crisised: (► why me. why.)

Recognition dawns on her face when he introduces himself, and Kara can't resist giving him a cheeky salute and a, "Good to meet you, Captain."

His comment gets a snort out of her. "Rao, please don't ask that. If I have to deal with someone else hitting on me just because I like to dance and look good, I'm gonna end up punching someone."

Which is both an answer to his unasked question and possibly a remark that'll let him know she's not hitting on him. Because she's not. Mostly because she thinks he's dating Mick who she doesn't know is Mick yet. Kara is just bad at making conversation sometimes.

And apparently is starting a habit of meeting Rogues while in bars. First Boomer, now Captain Cold...
crisised: (► pull the other one.)

"You don't." As far as she knows, anyway. "But I know of a version of you. The multiverse is..." She wiggles her fingers and pulls a face. "Weird. You get used to it after awhile."

And she's sure that's a version after talking with Rip and meeting Mick. The fact that this Leonard Snart doesn't look like he'd be caught dead in the kind of parka her world's Captain Cold wears just cements that knowledge.

"Quarters are a little too close here for my liking. The odds of me accidentally breaking someone's bones go up when I'm boxed in." Some times having super strength sucks. Bar fights is one of those.

Kara looks out at the dance floor consideringly. "You'd really rather be over here than out there with someone who'd keep everyone else away? I mean, your guy looks like the kind of guy not many people would try to cut in on." If Mick is the dancing type, that is.

She shrugs. "To each their own, I guess."

Kara doesn't really get the appeal of being in a place like this if there's no pool table and you're not going to dance or pick someone up. Probably because she can't get drunk. There's a whole side to bars she's missing because of that.

"Nah. The Rogues mostly stick to Central City and I work out of Metropolis for the most part. Unless there's a need for a superhero team-up somewhere, in which case I'm wherever I'm needed." All of that to say that he's not the kind of bad guy she punches. "I don't know much about my world's version of you, honestly. Just what I've seen on the news and what Boomer told me."

She pauses, feeling wistful for a moment as she remembers Owen. And then she remembers that Mick had no idea who Owen was and so her comment probably needs some explaining.

"Boomer was a good friend of mine. He ran with you and yours for a while before we met."

wow thank u phone for posting that early

She nods. "Heat Wave said as much when I met him during the last event." Hence the explanation.

Kara looks back out over the bar, eyes landing on the guy Leonard's been staring at. ... Waitaminute. She cocks her head to the side. Squints. Studies him for a moment.

"Huh. He really grew into his shoulders eventually."

She snorts. Honest to god, lets out a derisive snort as she shakes her head, only just stopping herself from saying something along the lines of 'typical man.' Though she is most definitely thinking it.

"You humans are so strange. Most of you get hung up on minor differences in appearance in your own species, but blue skin and tentacles where you have hair aren't off-putting?" Kara shakes her head and, in lieu of moving to a table or snagging a chair, decides to sit mid-air. "Some times I think you all will never make sense."
crisised: (► oh joy. just what i wanted.)

"I'm Kryptonian." Which is to say, yes, she's an alien.

She looks back over at Leonard, faintly and wryly amused. "I bet the misanthropy helps in your line of work, huh?" It must be easier to steal and potentially hurt people when you don't give a damn about humanity in general.

All the amusement vanishes.

"No." Kara pauses, frowns. Amends that statement. "I like a good fight. I like the chase, when the world isn't at stake. But the world is at stake every Tuesday where I come from." It's exhausting. And it's nothing like a game. Not with the things she sees and deals with on a regular basis.

Well, that's unexpected. She knows peripherally that the Rogues always had something of a code. They were never the world domination type, or even very homicidal. But hearing that and having a version of Captain Cold outright say something like that are two different things.

It makes her smile again.

"That's not very villainous of you."

"He's a pretty cool guy." Badumtish. "There are worse people to be compared to."

Her little smile turns into a grin at his words. "Cheers to you, though. The world could use a few more anti-heroes, in my opinion." More people willing to do the things heroes either can't or won't. It's not a popular opinion--in fact, Kara's willing to bet her cousin would be frowning all disappointed at her if he heard her say that--but after seeing the things she has, thinking anything else is difficult.
crisised: (► this is some srs bullshit.)

The look on her face says "I don't think that's a real thing" even if Kara herself holds her tongue while Leonard finishes his drink.

He asks his question and Kara glances at Mick, then raises an eyebrow at Leonard. "Have you been to the Silversun Strip yet?" She is willing to bet good money either that casinos, the crazy space arcade, or the arena will catch their attention.
