Re: Capital: Holly + Gwen
There was totally something for labels you owned. It was agency and sometimes there wasn't a lot of that going around, floating in the ether for you to take. Holly got ownership, and the get-up that the caped crusader was wearing said whoever was behind the mask was owning this. It was dedication, even tangling at the end of what had to be a web and she was putting together the spider thing with the suit and the swinging. Call her slow? But the situation kind of focused the mind on the immediate.
You might have thought she objected to getting saved. It was a damsel move, and Holly? So wasn't down for damsel-ing as a permanent gig. But she wasn't super-anything and her ribs hurt like crazy as her heart battered against them with the pretty obvious drop to the alleys below and it was exciting and it was terrifying and the damsel part was situation-specific. Holly was a realist about peon-ing, even outside of Jersey.
The caped crusader was struggling a little. The car thing? Was such a newbie move and when they swung high and over the alley and hit the safety of solid rooftop? Holly's stagger-free showed exactly how little time she had spent with caped crusaders or rogues lately. "You're new at this?" Mimicry, she could understand, and she was wild-messy hair and a look of complete comprehension for the girl in the suit who was voiceless.
"C'mon, caped crusader, you've got to know better places to hang out."
