Lucius Fox has posed:
Lucius Fox is standing there in a light purple sweater vest working on a suit now in front of him in the center of the cave. It is armored, slowly his hand is moves to place a bright green thread into it slowly, the lights so very dim. Barely there but each of the threads glowing as he works it down into the suit, slowly that needle is moving in and out with a sigh of displeasure. "This is hard work." The older black man mumbles, finishing the first suit now with a sigh of pleasure at the work over. His eyes looking up at the monitor, studying it with a frown. "Now to test it."

Charlotte Gage-Radcliffe has posed:
    There is the faint sound of air displacement, then that of a young woman humming along with pretty good pitch to some pop song.

    A glance over towards the armory would reveal a redhaired young woman, expensive but still distressed jeans, stompy combat boots, and a wonder woman hoodie (hood down) peering at the ID sensor to the armory proper. She has on cute pink headphones, and is bobbing her head as she hummms. "Come on wake back up." to the music impatiently.

    No alarms. Not Barbara. Probably only takes a moment for someone so versed with access to recognize Charlie, Bab's ward/adoptee.

    She finally glances over and notics Lucius, not the best detective, and squints a little with unfamiliarity.

Lucius Fox has posed:
Lucius Fox picks up a pistol slowly in his old hand moving slowly to lift the suit placing it on a hook with not a looking around at all. It's an old style revolver, slowly he pulls back the hammer loading in a bullet aiming right for the center of the suit. The glowing threads slowly, moving than they stop as if they have settled into the armor. With that he pulls the trigger, with a loud eruption of sound that bullet slams right into the center of the armor, sticking out and than falling to the floor. "IT WORKS!" His whole focus on the work for now, not noticing the new arrival.

Charlotte Gage-Radcliffe has posed:
    The young woman's eyes go from squinting to wide when the gun is lifted up into view. Okay those, other than Jason's, are pretty rare sights in these here parts. She shifts her footing and doesn't jump at the gunshot but still it echoes through the cave mightily.

    "Uh. What works.... and who are you... you look very familiar."

Lucius Fox has posed:
Lucius Fox looks over at her now, his ears rings as he places down the weapon on the table, as he speaks way too loud given the ear ringing. "LUCIUS FOX!" His voice is rings out, as he points to the suit. "Building that for new bullets, to protect those of the night and the wings. Good to meet you, sadly we need to go somewhere to get more to upgrade all the suits. WHO ARE YOU?"

Charlotte Gage-Radcliffe has posed:
    Charlie thinks about the underarmor she is wearing under her civvies that make up her JL Dark outfit she is currently in. "Oh. .. Lucius Fox..." brain works, honest it does, then her eyes widen "Oh .. Waynecorp. Like the the tech guy who.... right .. ok this makes sense..." she nods to herself.

    She heads closer walking to see the armor being tested. "Misfit is my call sign, though you can call me Charlie Mr. Fox." she tilts her head studying it. "I'm wearing the low profile under armor right now.. it's pretty spiff. Where do you need to go to get more for the other suits?"

Lucius Fox has posed:
Lucius Fox turns slowly to push a button on his laptop ears not ringing as bad, showing a map of the savage lands. "Here, there will be a mission Stephanie, will be running it if you wish to join. That is good, your wearing something these new bullets will still rip through it like butter on a bread, or whatever yucky metaphor you like that makes you bleed. So, that goal is simple upgrade everything and everyone's armor, but for that we need this stuff. It's called Creepiest Ivory, by my friend there is no real name for it. Living rock, that can be molded into things."

Charlotte Gage-Radcliffe has posed:
    She blinks at the statement that it is likely to go right through her body armor. "Wait what." she peers at the gun. "What new bullets..." she is very bad at keeping up with the Bat Fam messages and reports. She tugs the orange goggles down off her forehead over her eyes and queues. "Oracle, unread messages..." and falls quiet for a moment. Eyes darting like she is skimming a HUD now. "Oooh.. oh... oh that sucks...."

    "Sure if I can I am always willing to help. This seems like a priority too. Though it wont help the GCPD. We probably need to figure out why the bullets are so special and how to get rid of the source there too."

Lucius Fox has posed:
Lucius Fox flicks his fingers over the keyboard bringing up the bullets to show her even as she is checking those missed messages. "Indeed, we will provided them in time to GCPD once, they become public knowledge. We will do our research than, we can't go first with such things, than we are wrapped up in the how did we know bit of the world." His fingers move to turn the picture to give her a good view of the bullet itself. "Yes, indeed that will suck the big one, as they use to say."

Charlotte Gage-Radcliffe has posed:
    The chaosmuppet leans to peer at the screen and the analysis of the bullets. "I imagine something like living earth from the savage lands, which sounds like an adventure, can't be scaled to provide armor to all of the GCPD thoguh..."

    "She steps back a step. "Definitely need to cut it off on the source too. Or at least make sure they are supes totes rare on the street."

Lucius Fox has posed:
Lucius Fox looks over at Charlie. "Oh it would be a lessor version for GCPD, something mass produced with the time and knowledge of learning from our own research and experience. But, yes that is the second step, I'm also tracking cybernetics in the city. That will take time as well, there is much for me to do now, always a new crime and always a new threat. Now, than Miss Gage, what do you need help with if anything?"

Charlotte Gage-Radcliffe has posed:
    "Cybernetics... is someone cyber enhancing villains now too?" her eyes widen. Okay she read the most recent posting, not all of them. She rubs the back of her head, fingers moving through her hair.

    "Oh I was just popping by to grab some goop pellets and smoke bombs." not the official name, goop pellets, but that is how she thinks of them. "I mean also peer to see if there were any new toys in the cracker jacks box..."

Lucius Fox has posed:
Lucius Fox looks over at CHarlie with a nod of his head. "Not sure yet, I will inform or have someone else when there is more on that as well. There is new smoke bombs, and all sorts of basic stuff. Just did a refill, now than I need to be off. It was good meeting you Miss Gage." With that he is heading for the exit, with a little chuckle. "Have a safe trip to the savage world."

Charlotte Gage-Radcliffe has posed:
    "Thanks Mr. Fox, oh hey if you ever need something fetched or delivered really really fast be sure to think of me okay." she grins and then waves her fingertips.

    She heads towards the armory to load up on the stuff that was getting low.
