hello welcome to the party. hi I've never met you before. I know.

[goodsoldier]

Who: Will! Kaitlyn! Fauxlivia! and Jason!
What: by their powers combined, they are VAGUELY CONSPIRATORIAL AND ANTI-MILITIA
Where: assorted places
When: assorted times
Notes: did I forget anyone help I have a brain like a sieve. ALSO don't feel like pressured to immediately sign them on, this is possibly more like "so this is how Jason meets your characters and takes interest in them" thing. Presumably he'd also stalk them for a bit, to the best of his ability (UNSURE) let me know how you feel about that possibility.
Warnings: captain planet; spinach dip

There are a million things to do, which is really how Jason prefers life to be. He's all over the city talking to people, some of whom he returns to, some of whom he never sees again; he buys things, steals things, stores things, moves things. It's not all carefully planned, either. Some people and things he simply comes across in his travels, and he keeps his schedule flexible enough to accommodate these opportunities.

His funds are limited. Criminal conquest is more fun with more money, but sadly, Talia isn't here and if she were, she wouldn't have the al Ghul resources with her. Of course, she could actually be here and simply declined to contact him. Or she could be here, just a version of herself that never became involved with him, or from before such things happened. He tries not to think much about things like that, primarily because it's pointless and he has so many more important things to be thinking about. Still, there are empty, waiting moments on the train or the streets where his brain revisits these ideas, for reasons beyond his comprehension or capacity to care. But he reaches his stops, he finds something else to observe.

Newton's gaze will haunt her until the day she dies. Jason's may only leave her questioning herself for the next few days. She doesn't like that feeling, but it's a necessary evil. Just because she's paranoid doesn't mean there isn't someone out to get her.

"Well then." She wonders if he can tell what's going on beneath her surface, or if she hides it as well as he does. "I suppose we should say goodbye for now." She stands up from her seat, secretly pleased with the minor edge she gets in height from it. "I'll leave first, if you don't mind."

She's pleased with it, because it allows her to have the final word, which is in the form of a brief, but heated kiss before she turns to part ways. If there was any question as to what they were up to on their end of the bar, she's hopefully put the finishing touch on their little ruse. "I'll call you," she assures without looking over her shoulder as she heads for the door.

Though there's only a moment where he's thrown, the moment was there regardless. He makes a quiet sound of amused acknowledgment, but doesn't try to extend the moment; Jason just watches her go, and directs his smile at the floor as if that would hide it. If he feels more at ease with Olivia, that itself should be a warning to stay more on guard. He has to remember it's an illusion.

It's a nice one, though.
