As night falls on Baedal, the city is almost quiet. The streets have a few last minute workers returning home, but by now, most citizens have already gone by the temples and picked up their vurt, ready to lay down and dream.

After placing a not-feather in one's mouth, there's a moment where it fizzes against the tongue before sliding coolly down the back of the throat and pulling the user down into sleep. A series of impressions, more sensation than anything concrete, appears before the user and this is how one chooses which Dreamer to enter.

He looks down at himself, and finally chuffs out a laugh. "I suppose I might at that. Gonna at least take care of this, though."

With a quiet grumble about "how did this even get here," he takes off the sword belt, somehow rearranges how the scabbard attaches to it in a way that turns it into a proper baldric like the one he has in the waking world, and settles it on his back.

"There, that's better." And because he doesn't assume his rep has traveled so far or that people are creepers, he extends his left hand to shake. "I'm Hellboy, by the way."

Barbara doesn't like to advertise her creepiness, so she simply accepts his hand, her grip casually firm. "Barbara Gordon. Nice to meet you." Her gaze roams round the square for a moment. "Well. Sort of." It's a meeting of the minds, anyway.

"Likewise." He shrugs. "Close enough, anyway."

As they shake, he takes a moment to more closely look over Barbara's presentation.

"Some interesting symbolism there, now that I think of it," he says. "Not that I really do much with the cards myself, but in my line it pays to be familiar."

"I'm no expert," Barbara admits, "but I know some basics." Mostly because she knows some basics about most things. She traces her fingers along the cool stone arm of the throne.

"Your line is supernatural, I'm guessing?"

He shrugs. "A bit predictable, I know, but yeah. I'm a senior field agent with Hellsing. Been in the game most of my life, for probably obvious reasons." Being a supernatural being himself, he means.

"How 'bout you? What do you do, if you don't mind my asking?"
