Log: Speedy and Batman
WHO: Mia Dearden and Batman
WHAT: Mia does a background check on Jason, Batman finds out and isn't happy.
WHEN: April 25th, night late
WHERE: Titans HQ
She was done with the mystery. Maybe it wasn’t her business. Maybe she’d look into this, and realize it was something stupid and small that really wasn’t her business. People were allowed to have secrets. She had plenty of them herself. However, this had been nagging at her too much to not follow her instants. So she sat down at her desk and booted up her laptop. She already knew he wasn’t on any social media that she could find. Which while different, she didn’t consider too weird. Why you were in the superhero community your barometer for what constituted weird was pretty damn high.
She thought for a minute before doing a few of the most basic, rudimentary searches she could do. She shook her head, completely unsurprised by how much that didn’t pan out. But this was what she did. This had been her unofficial job before she was Speedy, or hell, even had it in her brain to be Speedy. Research. Using her basic of basic hacking skills she quickly learned that that wasn’t going to yield anything interesting either.
What she needed was a better computer. One that already had access to the types of searches she needed to do. And she totally had access to one of those now. (Though, really she should learn more hacking on her own, but that was a thought for another time.) So she packed her bag up, grabbed her helmet, and texted Connor and Oliver that she’d be back late.
She arrived at the HQ and went in fully expecting to kick someone off the computer who was using it to do their homework for them, but it was so close to dinnertime that the place was empty. Hungry teens needed to stuff their faces.
She flipped the lightswitch to the room and grinned to herself. “Wakey, wakey.” she said as if it understood. Well, it did understand human speech, but it was already up and running. Mia dropped her bag near the chair and sank down. She toed off her shoes, and soon her neon green socked feet were up on a blank space on the console.
“Computer, I need a search. Jason Hill. Gotham.” The computer went to work. Mia pulled out a book and about 15 minutes later there was a ping to tell her the search was done. She almost winced. Too many results, she’d be here for a lifetime. “Computer, subtract all references of Jasons with no last name and with a different last name.”
Hmmm...
Well that was a bit more manageable but not by a ton. “Subtract all first name unknowns and first names that are not Jason unless their middle name is Jason or their first or middle initial is J.”
Mia smiled a bit to herself as her list shrunk considerably. Still she’d be here for a couple of days at this rate. It was easy to delete a lot of references early on and she was on a roll, but still she had the sinking feeling that this was a waste of time. She shook her head.
“Computer, save progress; minimize search.” She stretched and glanced at the clock. “New search. Gotham.” He said he’d lived there and grew up there, so there had to be something. “And surrounding areas, including Bludhaven.” Better safe than sorry. “Adult. Male. Brown hair. Blue eyes. Born between 1988 and 1995. Name Jason, Jason Hill, and Hill. Search everything.”
She sighed and picked her book back up and she curled up in the chair. A half hour later the computer once again pinged. She smiled brightly. “Computer, subtract, but save for later: Bludhaven and Surrounding areas.”
Ten results.
She clicked on the first one which was a news story about Jason Hill, Tuba player and now drum major of Gotham University’s marching band. One by one she was able to quickly eliminate the results.
She was just about to open one of her saved searched back up, before she remembered something. Her phone. He’d sent her a picture ages ago. She pulled her phone out of her bag and soon the picture was on the monitor in front of her. “Computer, open up facial recognition. Search everything.”
And that was when she left the room for some snackage. When she got back she paced for a few minutes to relax a bit before pulling out her Calculus book and graphing calculator to get some homework done while that finished. It was a bit difficult to concentrate on and soon her pencil was just tapping quickly on the table as she stared at the wall.
She nearly jumped out of her skin when the computer pinged. She got up and clicked the result that popped up. The first thing she was was a picture of him. It took her back for a second. He didn’t look that much younger than he was now, but he still seemed it. He was dressed well, and that’s when she noticed the headline.
