[Closed] Happy Deathday

Who: Jason Todd [personal profile] robintohood and whoever has CR with him
What: Jason dealing with his deathday anniversary
When: December 20th to 21st
Where: Central City
Content Warnings: PG-13 level violence and mentions of self-harm and suicide ideation

[The closer it gets to December 21st, the less present Jason Todd the civilian is. It's harder to catch him at the Descendant during this month because he hasn't been there as often as he usually is. He's not spotted as often at other places either his favorite libraries or any bookstores. Meanwhile, there's an increase in Red Hood appearances.

At first, the crime lord is seemingly burying himself with his work and trying to regain what his gang lost last month. Plenty of fights with other gangs, muscling in on territory, dodging bullets from mobsters. The beatings he dishes out on goons seem to have intensified. But as December 21st creeps closer, even most of that work gradually gets less attention from him.

The beatings continue though with a change in what information Jason wants out of his victims.

In place of most of his crime lord work are solo recon missions. Lots of decrepit properties are checked. Unused fairgrounds, warehouses, and even empty properties that used to be toy stores get searched. Jason's always on the lookout for reports of gruesome crimes involving things like deadly laughing gas, frozen smiles, and clowns too. Jason knows the Joker loves gimmicks.

For all of Jason's vigilance though, there's not even a chuckle or any other hint of the mass murderer. The quietness feeds into how unsettled Jason feels. He’s expecting something to happen. That's how the Joker works sometimes. He’s a sick freak who likes to put his own twist on special occasions.

So Jason keeps searching around Central City. That's what he tells himself what he's doing. He has so much rage, fear, and other negative feelings he doesn't want to contemplate. Once he finally kills the Joker he’ll finally feel at peace.

It’s either December 20th or it's December 21st when one might spot the Red Hood in Central City.

He could be zooming all over the streets on his motorcycle. He could be curbstomping and bludgeoning someone with a tire iron outside of a dive. He might be lurking on a dark rooftop overlooking the city, or staking out a waterfront warehouse.

Whatever the case is, he’s clearly in an extremely foul mood]

She shakes her head at him, blue eyes flashing with anger. "Permanent? Perhaps. But this is not a solution. You're in my lasso now, Hood. Don't try to lie to me or to yourself. Only the truth survives here."

['Nothing to Instagram about'???? Accelerator snorts.]

I'm not the kind of person that's interested in social media.

[He's a big weirdo for a kid, in other words, because what kind of modern kid doesn't use social media? It also means he isn't fiddling with his phone or anything while they wait.

When their coffees arrive he is immediately scooping his up and chugging it. It doesn't hit the same notes as canned stuff, but the caffeine still helps with his addiction.]

[........... He knows a lot of people here take secret identities secretly, but the domino mask under the helmet is so extra.

Anyways. He looks down at his phone.]


How much data do you have on the bastard?

[That isn't ideal. Still.]

Then give me everything you've got on him that's here.

"You're wrong." Despite the tension of the situation, despite his anger, her voice is full of sorrow. "It meant everything."

She still remembers; Clark does, too. How Bruce slid away from all of them and back into the cave of his mind. How his paranoia grew. His aggression. How he kept seeing Jason everywhere, in everything. "He won't cross that line. But it doesn't mean nothing changed, Jason. What happened to you... broke him."

In a way Bane never could. "But this isn't helping to fix what happened to you. None of these people are the Joker."

[He looks a little disappointed that this is what he's getting, and he shakes his head.]

Be more specific than that. [He taps his phone.] I want addresses of all the locations he's operated in, bank account numbers, names and profiles of criminals he's hired. Give me the livestream videos and posts and all the metadata, including banal shit like IP addresses. And shit like where exactly you shot him, and with what kind of weapon.

"That's okay," Tim says, because just because he was following Jason in civilian clothes doesn't mean he didn't prepare a little. His utility belt is tucked under his sweatshirt, and he does have a grapple. "Thanks."

[Pen and paper? What is this, the Middle Ages?]

Do you seriously not have any of this uploaded into a database somewhere? Even something unstructured is fine.
levelshift: (hey LISTEN)

Not even some kind of encrypted cloud connection through your phone?

[Accelerator please that kind of thing is only normal in Academy City.]

[Accelerator slumps back in his chair, putting a hand exasperatedly to his forehead. God, way to make life inconvenient for him!!]

Then just give me access to whatever you have. I'm not exactly proud of it, but I can analyze data better than a supercomputer. If I've got enough data I can probably come up with some inferences for you.

[He's going back to his coffee, taking a sip.]

Mostly just a lack of data. I mean, it's possible to analyze gaps in data in their own unique way, and I'd be better at it than a supercomputer because those things are limited by their programming. But too many of them and I don't have enough to work with. I'd only be making guesses like a normal person would.

"Who's next strike?"

She's genuinely uncertain, frowning at him from the other end of the lasso, strung tight. "He isn't here. None of us have seen anything from him since I arrived."

"And what evidence do you have that he's still here? That any of this is connected to him?"

She tugs on the lasso, twitching it a little tighter around him. "And do you truly think you can't interrupt his plans – if it is him – without killing?"
