[Right after this incident and this conversation, Jason sends a secure text to the entire BatFamily and whoever else would know about the Descendant’s listening devices]

Accelerator and the turtles found the bugs

Wasn’t an accident that Room 3’s devices went dark

Accelerator knows the whole building is bugged. His power lets him sense their signals

I told him this is probably related to my hood shit but this still might be a problem

i could have told you that
kid is a walking radio wave sensor

[robintohood]

Never underestimate the power of teenagers I guess

[reneger]

he has a lot more tricks up his sleeves
maybe you should have thought to ask before he told his buddies

[robintohood]

Wouldn't have killed you to give a heads-up

[reneger]

you didn't ask

[robintohood]

You knew how the place is set up AND what he can do

I'm not the only one using Descendant you know

[reneger]

thought you would have known better than to let a bunch of underage brats in a bar full of gangsters
my bad

[robintohood]

Fuck off. They had a private room to themselves

[reneger]

and that's supposed to make it alright?
what about the rest of the kids who have a free pass in and out?

[overlyprecocious]

well I'm helping to organize the Gritty union 👍

[reneger]

( yeah he's not getting into it with tim.

no need for a repeat of last time tim got in the middle of them. )

[codicies]

ask him to point out all the listening devices to you, look thoughtful, then get a devious smirk on your face. Then say something dramatic like "whoever planted these, maybe we can use this against them" and then when he asks you to elaborate say "i'm gonna talk to tim."

[overlyprecocious]

:)

[codicies]

u get me

[robintohood]

You know, that doesn't sound like a bad idea

[codicies]

theatrics run in the family

[mostdangerousbird]

Sense exactly what kind of signals?

[robintohood]

Wireless signals in general apparently

He wears a collar that dampens his powers but he can flip it on if he needs to use them

[mostdangerousbird]

Now that's an interesting challenge.

[robintohood]

Think you're up for it?

[mostdangerousbird]

I'd be more confident with Mr. Terrific on speed dial, but I'm not going to let this go.

[robintohood]

Yeah, it hits too close for us

Have you met Donnie and Leo?

[mostdangerousbird]

[ It’s only polite to have pretend to be confused. ]

Who are Donnie and Leo?

[robintohood]

Talking turtles. They’re friends with Accelerator

Apparently they were trained to fight like ninjas too so probably know a thing or two about stealth

[mostdangerousbird]

Do you ever stop and wonder if there's some wider, as yet undefined version of string theory that incorporates how we meet these people?

[robintohood]

I try not to think about it

[mostdangerousbird]

How is that working for you?

I'm assuming it's atavism like Croc.

[robintohood]

Ignorance is bliss

Usually

And not a clue but they definitely have real shells

[mostdangerousbird]

At least I have time to work up some turtle puns.

[robintohood]

Oh that’s gonna be fun

I checked room 3 after they left. None of the devices seem busted so maybe they somehow got a way to screw with the signals?

[mostdangerousbird]

They BLOCKED my signals?

[robintohood]

Yup. Not sure if that was also Accelerator

Donnie likes to tinker with gadgets so I can imagine him messing around

[mostdangerousbird]

I'm pulling an all-nighter at the Descendant tonight.

[robintohood]

Want any help?

[mostdangerousbird]

I wouldn't mind it. We can't have people blocking our signals in our own space. I have to fix it.

[robintohood]

Definitely

I’ll meet you tonight
