Strike with Light

{Backdated: Can take place anywhere from July 1 to July 25, since he's going out on multiple nights.}

[ As dangerous as the Nox Carnival had been, it had at least given the Batman something simple to fight against. However, the satisfaction of helping clear the carnival of darkness had only gone a small way to alleviating the frustration of having been trapped in Freesia for months. ]

[ To that end, he'd stopped concentrating on his lost equipment and studying the city. Instead, the Batman would go out every other night and patrol Freesia, hunting down any Nox and Rifts lurking in the shadows. ]

[ They'd gone back to being roughly the size of rats and cats ever since the Nox Carnival, and both Nox and the Rifts they came out of could be dealt with in a literal flash. And since they were relatively easy to deal with so far, the Batman had felt justified in avoiding any citizens or other abductees that came out at night. Working alone was... simpler, right now. ]

[ Of course, complicating his attempts to fly under the radar was his magic. ]

[ As effective as it was against the Nox, bright flashes of light were very noticeable after dark, even from a distance. He had experimented with the visibility, changing the colors, trying to make it less glaring, but when a rat-shaped Nox was launching itself at his face, it was hard to be concerned with the obviousness of his attacks. ]

[ Eventually, anybody wandering around at night is going to notice those flashes of light in the distance. ]

[He can support himself with the railing. He's fine...yeah...just not going to walk too much...]

What d'ya mean?

[Batdude would have gotten away if he hadn't. Seemed plenty necessary.]

[Casey isn't quite white-knuckling it on that railing, but he's still leaning on it. But now it's in a manner that suggests he's just one vigilante talking shop with another vigilante, which he'll keep up until he feels his legs stop shaking.]

Figured wherever you were runnin' to had to have somethin' goin' down, right? If you were causin' it, I could take you out and if you were gonna fight it, I'd help you out!

Never stopped me before...

[Can't keep Casey Jones out of the action, no matter how needed he actually is.]

Uh...If the guys are awake, they've probably noticed I'm gone.

[Casey considers this for a moment and then shrugs.]

Guess not, but it's not like they're my dads or nothin'. Besides, I know the night like th' back of my hand!

No way! I'm fine!

[He'll probably need to PROVE that though, so he's going to let go of the rail and try to casually saunter over to the ladder to the roof. And the great thing about a saunter is that it kind of looks exactly like a dizzy stagger if you don't look too hard. And hesitating at the ladder because he's not sure he'll be able to get up it without loosing his grip can be made to look like a guy waiting for the other guy's next move.]
