[What the hell kind of question is this????]

Why?

[purplexing]

There might be a way to find her, but we need something that would have her "magic" signature or something.

[levelshift]

[.... At least that's an infinitely less weird answer than any alternatives.]

Her cats are out of the question.

I've got a work phone she gave me when I first started. It literally appeared in her hand, so she might've made the fucking thing out of magic.

[purplexing]

Cats?

-well they probably wouldn't work anyway. Where are you? Apartment? I can verify the phone thing, I just need to see it.

[levelshift]

She owns a lot of them.

Yeah, fine. Come over whenever.

[purplexing]

OOH an actual invitation. Hey Leo, how about a shortcut?

[faceguy]

👍

[Why is his only useful contribution here to be a taxi…]

[levelshift]

[While those two do that he's going to retrieve his very purple work phone from his bedroom, then go hang out in the living room.]

[purplexing]

[You are appreciated, Leo. Besides, look at the progress made! Portaling without hesitation, and Donnie's even encouraging it.

Once they get to the esper's place, Donnie's already pulling his goggles down- or at least he was until he sees the phone.]

Well, I can say this much for her, she's got good taste.

[It's purple what do you expect from him? But he brings his goggles down to have a look once he's handed the thing.]

[faceguy]

Purple is mid, should go with blue.

[Obviously. Leo has nothing else to contribute to this.

But he does appreciate the portal trust. It’s getting better!]

[levelshift]

Purple is a big part of her aesthetic.

[He would've preferred black, buuuut it's probably better that he doesn't get it mixed up with his regular black phone.]

Does this thing have any kind of energy signature?

[purplexing]

Like I said, good taste.

[Donnie taps his goggles down for a look.]

Well, this thing's definitely steeped in her magic-

[He watches as his display brings up earlier scans from the scene in Excelsior before proclaiming a match, and with a grin, he starts tapping at his holocomputer.]

Yes, I think this'll work. At least, if the person I spoke with isn't just pulling my leg. But it's still got a magical trace from Chaos Gate, so if this turns out a bust, at least we still have something we can possibly go by.

In any case, if we're going to be doing this, we need to step things up. Things have only started getting worse everywhere if the indications of the local Metas losing their abilities hasn't already been a big hint. ...the Shining God's still hanging around too.

Oops I lost this tag

[faceguy]

Yeah, and the whole age-bending dimension-hopping fiasco that’s been happening isn’t great either.

How soon can we meet your guy, Dee?

[levelshift]

......

[God, he should've been keeping a closer eye on Chaos Gate. Or... something.

What a mess.]

Yeah, the sooner we can meet him and find out whether or not he's a fucking liar, the better.

[purplexing]

[Donnie holds the phone back out to Accelerator. He supposes he'll want to hang onto it.]

I'll set up a meeting now that I've got a confirmed trace we can use. But we'll likely have to go to Excelsior.

[faceguy]

Oh great, because nothing bad ever happens there.

[Leo’s barely been there but he’s basically decided he hates it. At least with Central City’s brand of Bad is one he feels familiar with.]

Good news is the teleporters are still working, though. We can probably borrow one from Huvrye to get all three of us there.

[levelshift]

[Accelerator is echoing Leo's sentiments regarding Excelsior by way of an exasperated sigh. That place sucks super hard.]

I've got one of my own I can use from the Society, so I'm good there.

[purplexing]

[Not that Donnie can argue with either of them considering their recent experiences and what all's been going on in the city in the wake of that last battle. He holds his hands out to either side in a shrug.]

That'll take care of that problem then.

[He pulls his phone out to send a message to the supposed witch.]

I'll let you guys know once I've got specifics set up.

[faceguy]

Sweet.

[Leo pauses a moment, then slowly starts to grin, leeeeeaaaaning on Accerator.]

But hey, while we’re all here and you don’t look busy…

[They still have a bunch of movies on the To Watch list…]

[levelshift]

[Great, one thing down.

Accelerator, unsurprisingly, would like to just take a nap, but Leo is leaning on him and he knows where he's going. He just sighs, trying not to tilt too much due to Leo's weight.]

... I've got nothing better to do.

[purplexing]

[Donnie grins as he glances up from his phone.]

Unshocked at that, I am, but yes, let's do this.

[Before Accelerator can change his mind.]
