[Gotham U wasn't the kitty cat's normal territory. Far from the East End, and far from the Egyptian, but there were two little statues she wanted to see. Horus and Anubis were visiting the history department. A grant, and there would be an event that evening to display the lovers to anyone who could pay the thousand dollar entrance fee - for charity, of course. And Selina? Selina was still proving herself to the Don, and so this? This was a nice little recon mission. And later tonight? She'd prove that she was more thief than lover of the Bat.
But, for now, she was strolling. Denim-encased legs and a cinched jacket in emerald. Her heels clicked, and she was lost in thought as she went. Oh, nothing serious; she'd already had all her heavy doubt moments about her current endeavor. No, now it was just a ping of nothings against her skull. Holly's future. Iris' presence. Bruce's absence. Etc. Just momentary things, and nothing that stuck very long. It was very old-school her, before little attachments in this place. Surface things, and that was the best way to survive in Gotham.
New year. New plan.
She almost didn't notice the blonde up ahead; she certainly didn't recognize her at first. But a few steps closer, and Selina's lips curved in a warm smile that she had to tamp down. Eddie's words replayed in her mind - if they were going to do this, then they needed to do this.
But, she was a curious kitty cat, so she closed the gap between them with heel-click casualness.]
